Mr. Miller if the buildings will be built regardless if there is a tenant? Mr. Miller stated
working on getting the tenants at the same time. For financial purposes, there needs to
be about 40 to 50 percent pre-leased.
Commissioner Bartkowski questioned Mr. Myers regarding what is the rational behind
the different requests? Mr. Myers replied putting more residential spaces on the
properties; the original zoning allows for 300 units, but we are asking for 270, but
by adding the McNosky residence, that would add 30 more r . ts. As investments,
the institutional investment companies want to see the mi e. They want to see
upscale residential over retail and more density in specif to be able to appeal to
the financial markets and it will make a better looking .

it being difficult to get within the building; therefore the parking will be underground. The
cost of the residences will be higher, more upscale. This opens the first floor for retail

PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION
AGENDA BRIEFING
Subject:
January 9 2006 Prepared by: I Barry LeBaron,
, i Develo ment Director
Z-06-001 - PUBLIC HEARING - Request for a zoning chan
from CC1 Village Retail and AG Agricultural to PUD-R Planned
Unit Development Residential on 22.9 acres out of the G. Minter
Survey located northwest of Heritage Avenue and Glade Road
Meeting Date:
STAFF REVIEW COMMENTS
Mady Development Corporation has submitted a request to change the zoning of 22.9
acres, located on the west side of the 5000-5200 blocks of Heritage Avenue. A portion
of the property is currently zoned AG-Agricultural and a portion of the property is zoned
CC1-Village Retail. The applicant is seeking a zoning change in order to develop the
property for 124 single-family-attached residential town homes.
Except for a few older existing residential structures, the property is currently vacant
and is not platted. In order to subdivide the property as proposed by the developer,
approval of a subdivision replat will be required at a later date, upon approval of the
rezoning request.
The following is an analysis of the major issues associated with this rezoning request.
Master Plan. The Colleyville Plan shows the subject property situated adjacent to
Heritage Avenue for future commercial uses. Additionally, the portion of the subject
property situated immediately adjacent to the west side of the existing Walgreen's retail
store is also shown as a future commercial area. The balance of the property is shown
as future residential uses. Attached is a copy of the 2004-2025 Future Land Use Plan,
which shows the projected land uses for the area surrounding the subject tract. This
rezoning request is not fully consistent with the 2004-2025 Future Land Use Plan.
The developer has provided information in regarding the 2004-2025 Future Land Use
Plan for this area (see attached memorandum from Sage Group, Inc.). The developer
states that the subject property is a classical transitional area, in that it will serve to
transition from retail, office and commercial uses along Heritage Avenue to residential
uses further to the west. The developer also states that there is little neighborhood
support for expansion of the commercial uses along Glade Road west of the Walgreen's
site.
Residential Density. The Colleyville Plan suggests a maximum residential density of
1.8 dwelling units per acre in most situations. The proposed development of 124
residential units on this 22.9 acre property will produce a density of 5.4 dwelling units
per acre. However, the 1998 and 2004 Colleyville Master Plans both stated that
Agenda Item No.2 - Page 1
densities higher that 1.8 units per acre would be acceptable in those areas deemed
consistent with sound land use planning principles, such as a transitional area situated
between commercial uses and less dense residential developments, or near major
street intersections.
Lot Sizes & Widths. The PUD-R regulations require a minimum lot size of 13,000
square feet and a minimum lot width of 100 feet. However, there is a presumption that
the minimum lot size and lot width required by the PUD-R regulations are intended to
apply to subdivisions platted for detached single-family developments.
The applicant is proposing a single-family-attached town home development, which
minimum lot sizes or lot widths are not addressed in the PUD-R regulations for these
types of developments. The developer has provided information for inclusion in the
PUD-R ordinance regarding lot sizes, lot widths and lot depths. The minimum lot size
being proposed is 2,700 square feet. The minimum lot width proposed is 30 feet. The
minimum lot depth is 90 feet. As proposed, lot coverage will be limited to 90 percent of
the lot area.
Open Space. The PUD-R regulations require a minimum 20 percent of the
development be reserved for open space for the use by the residents of the
development. The proposed development contains numerous open space areas, which
are situated in various locations within the development. The proposed site plan for the
development shows 32.1 percent of the total development as open space.
Sidewalks and Trails. The 2005 Colleyville Pathways Plan requires a 10 foot-wide trail
along the north side of Glade Road. The developer will construct the applicable
sections of trail as a part of the public improvements for this development. The
developer is showing a trail connection from the internal portion of the development to
the Glade Road trail section. Additionally, the developer will be providing sidewalks
internal to the development for each lot. There is an existing 10 foot-wide trail along the
western side of Heritage Avenue, which extends across the frontage of this
development.
Surrounding Properties. The surrounding properties are a variety of land uses,
including retail, commercial, office along Heritage Avenue to the east and residential
and religious along Glade Road to the south. Heritage Middle School is situated
immediately to the north of the subject property.
Development Trends. The development trends in this area have consisted of retail,
office and residential uses.
Tree Preservation. According to aerial photos of the site, the property is heavily
wooded with a variety of species of native trees. A significant number of trees have
died from standing water associated with the existing pond on the property, The
developer has conducted an extensive tree survey of the site and has prepared a
significant tree study. The street and building layout has been prepared based on
preserving the significant trees on the property. At time of platting, a tree replacement
plan may be necessary for the non-exempt trees proposed for removal.
Agenda Item No.2 - Page 2
Infrastructure. Water and sanitary sewer services are available along adjacent rights-
of-way. The developer is responsible for the extension of water and sewer service lines
to the individual lots.
Drainage and Stormwater Runoff. The developer has submitted a preliminary
drainage analysis of the site, which has been reviewed by the Colleyville Engineering
Department. According to the drainage map, the site accepts water from the west and
from the north, which drains towards the south through drainage way located near the
eastern part of the property. The developer intends to shape the drainage channel into
a retention pond feature for use as an aesthetic amenity for the development. Final
discharge of storm water will continue to the south side of Glade Road through an
underground system.
Details of the proposed drainage system and storm water retention pond will be
submitted as part of the platting process.
Gated/Private Street Development. The developer has indicated that the proposed
development will be a gated/private street subdivision with the primary entrance to the
development located on Heritage Avenue. At time of platting, the developer is required
by Chapter 10 of the Land Development Code to submit the necessary Homeowner's
Association (HOA) documents for review by the City. The HOA documents must
indicate that the streets and drainage systems within the development are private,
owned and maintained by the HOA, and that the City has no obligation to maintain the
private streets and drainage systems. All HOA documents will be reviewed and
approved by the City Attorney to ensure conformity to applicable City policies prior to
the plat being filed with the County Clerk's office. The plat document will designate the
private road as a lot and a note will be provided on the plat stating the HOA is
responsible for construction and maintenance of the private road. The developer has
acknowledged these requirements and has indicated that the documents will be
submitted to the City at time of platting.
Access. The development will have primary access from Heritage Avenue. A second
access, located further to the south from the main entrance, will be provided on
Heritage Avenue for residents only via a gated key access system. A third access is
located on Glade Road, but will be gated and used for emergency access only. The
emergency access will be fitted with a Fire Department approved opticom system.
Traffic Generation. The developer is required to provide a Traffic Impact Analysis,
since the development is projected to generate in excess of 1,000 vehicle trips per day.
Specifically, staff requested the developer to study access into the site from Heritage
Avenue, which currently has a dedicated left turn lane at Gateway Drive for south bound
Heritage Avenue traffic.
The developer has provided a Traffic Impact Analysis, which recommends removal of a
section of the existing raised median in Heritage Avenue and the installation of a two-
way center left turn lane to provide access to the site for north-bound traffic. However,
due to the absence of school traffic counts during the recent holiday season, actual
Agenda Item No.2 - Page 3
traffic counts and turning movements are not available for review at the time this
agenda briefing was prepared. The Colleyville Engineering Department staff will need
to review the actual traffic survey information prior to the approval of any plans for
removing the Heritage Avenue median. The developer will complete the collection of
traffic information and present it to the Engineering Department with a follow-up letter.
Transportation Facilities. Heritage Avenue is currently a four lane divided roadway
and is adequate to handle the additional traffic generated by the proposed development.
However, a median cut will be required to access the property at the entrance location
proposed by the developer. Glade Road is currently a narrow, two lane facility that
does not meet current design standards. The City of Colleyville is currently working with
the Texas Department of Transportation for improving Glade Road from Heritage
Avenue and westward to the intersection with Martin Parkway. The reconstruction
project will increase the width of the driving lanes to standards of approximately 15 feet
wide and add dedicated left turn lanes at the major street intersections. This project is
scheduled to begin construction during the summer of 2006. The Glade Road widening
project has no impact on the proposed development since the development only has an
emergency access onto Glade Road.
Property Taxes. According to information available from the Tarrant Appraisal District,
the 22.9-acre tract is valued at $2,051,155. The estimated City property tax revenue for
the property is approximately $7,126 annually. The developer has provided an estimate
of $46,000,000 total value when the project is completed, which will generate $159,804
of tax revenue for the City.
Public Notification. Staff mailed notices to thirty-three (33) adjacent property owners
regarding this request. Notice was published in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram as
required by state law and the Land Development Code, No correspondence has been
received regarding this request.
SUMMARY
While the proposed development is not fully compliant with the 2004-20025 Future Land
Use Plan, staff feels the location of the development is ideal for this particular type of
higher density residential development. The project location is near the major
intersection of Glade Road and Heritage Avenue and the addition of 124 new
households, generated by the proposed project, will help support the retail and other
commercial businesses located in the Glade Points Shopping Center, located to the
east of the site. The residential nature of the project is also very compatible with the
educational properties located to the north where the Heritage Middle School is
situated. The recommendation for approval is based upon what staff feels is a good
land use for the site, minimum traffic impact on Glade Road and supportive of economic

.The subject of this zoning request is a 22.76 acre tract of land, situated generally along
the west side of Heritage Ave. and north of Glade Road, in the City of Colleyville, Texas.
The property is currently undeveloped, with the exception of a few existing older
residences. The adjacent land uses are quite varied, ranging from: Retail, Commercial and
Office uses along the Eastern boundaries, Residential and Religious uses to the South
and West, and Heritage Middle School to the North.
Because of the incompatibility of these two groups of adjacent uses, to each other, this
property could be considered a classic -transition" parcel. Through development, it would
ideally serve to -transition" from the higher intensity Retail, Commercial and Office uses
on the East, to the lower intensity uses on the West. The subject property is currently
zoned: CC-l on 5.06 acres surrounding the existing Walgreens and touching both
Heritage Ave. and Glade Road, and AG on the remaining 17.7 acres.
This zoning request proposes to change the CC-l and AG zonings to a Residential PUD,
providing the transition discussed above through the development of a Single Family-
Attached Residential Community. The layout of tlte lots, roads and open space areas has
been carefully crafted around the significant large trees on the property, to highlight
and save as many of these valuable natural features as possible. As a result, more than
30% of the site will be maintained as permanent open space, owner and maintained by the
Heritage Oaks Home Owners Assn.
Primary access will be from Heritage Ave., through a gated main entry. Secondary
access will be provided from another gated entry along Heritage and a single gated entry
from Glade Road. Extensions of and connections to the existing trails identified on the
Colleyville Trail Master Plan will be made along both frontages, from the internal
community sidewalk and trail system.
The scale and orientation of the development has been designed to provide for and
encourage a safe and inviting walking environment, passive recreation opportunities,
desirable architecture and a high quality environment compatible with the rest of the
city.

Heritage Oaks will have 124 homes, each with an estimated average value of $375,000,
resulting in an overall addition of $46,500,00 to the city tax base. At the current tax
rate of 2.6946n%, the total new taxes generated for the city, school district and
county would total $1,253,024 per year, as a result of this development.

Chris:
The following is intended to be responsive to the comments and questions posed by the
Colleyville Development Review Committee, sent to us last week. These responses
relate directly to the item numbers, as shown in the DRC memorandum.
1. The staffreport to the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council
regarding this zoning change will include a proposed ordinance containing
suggested conditions applicable to this type of development. A copy of the staff
report and proposed ordinance will be available for review not less than 72 hours
prior to the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting date.
Response to #1: We understand and look forward to receiving the staff report and
proposed ordinance, for review and clarification,

2. Development requirements not specifically cited by the applicant shall be
required to meet the PUD-R zoning regulations and development standards as
stated within the Land Development Code. Provide information on any special
development standards requested by the developer for inclusion in the PUD-R
ordinance.
Response to #2:
Special Development Standards Requested:
1. Maximum Residential Density: 5,5 dwelling units per acre
2. Minimum Residential Lot Size: 2,700 s,f.
3. Minimum Lot Width: 30'
4. Minimum Lot Depth: 90'
5. Front Yard Setback: 5'
6. Rear Yard Setback: 3.5'
7, Streets: Private Streets, with Gated Entries. 24' (back to back)
Concrete Pavement wi alternating Inset Parking Spaces outside the
24'.
3. The Future Land Use Plan shows portions of this area asfuture retail and office
uses. Provide justification as to why the Master Plan should be modifiedfor
residential use,
Response to #3: The subject property is a classic transitional site, in that it would
serve to transition from the Low Density Single Family Residential Land Uses on the
west, to the Retail, Office and Commercial Uses along the Heritage Ave. corridor on
the East. From our discussions with nearby residents, we believe there is little
support for further expansion of Office and Commercial Uses along Glade Road west
of the Walgreens at the NW comer of Glade and Heritage, although a portion of this
property there is currently zoned CC-I, We also understand the City's desire for a
significant tax base valuation for the Commercial Zoned land; although we believe
there is a limited market for Retail Uses west of Heritage, other than the existing
Walgreens site on the comer.
The proposed plan is an opportunity to meet both desires, in that it would provide for
Single Family Residential Uses immediately west of the Walgreens site (at a density
compatible with such a close adjacency to Commercial Uses), while at the same time
provide an addition to the city's tax base exceeding what would be achievable
through an alternative Garden Office development.

Re: Preliminary Traffic Analysis for Heritage Oaks Development - Col/eyville, Texas
Mr. Scasta:
Lee Engineering is pleased to submit this letter report documenting our traffic analysis for the
proposed Heritage Oaks Development in Colleyville, Texas. The purpose ofthis preliminary study
was to document the trip generation and the site traffic assignment from the proposed development
to Heritage Avenue. We have also identified preliminary recommendations to accommodate turning
traffic to and from the site. The site is proposed to consist of approximately 118 townhome dwelling
units in a gated community.
Traffic Volumes
The number of vehicle trips generated by the proposed development at build-out were estimated
based on the trip generation equations provided in the publication entitled Trip Generation, Seventh
Edition, by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) , Estimates of the number of trips
generated by the site were made for the AM and PM peak hours, as well as on a daily basis. The
number of trips generated by the development is a function ofthe type and quantity ofthe land use
of the development. The trip generation rates for this development and the resulting number of trips
generated by this development are shown in Tables 1 and 2.
Table 1. Proposed Residential Development Trip Generation Rates

AM Peak Hour 10 49 59
PM Peak Hour 46 23 69
As shown in Table 2, the development is expected to generate approximately 740 daily trips on an
average weekday at build-out.
Directional Distribution
For the proposed development, the directional split of traffic entering and leaving the development
was based on the location of principal roadways. Figure 1 shows the assumed directional
distribution for the development, as well as the usage restriction on each driveway. Driveway A is
planned to be a full-access drive, while Driveway B is planned to be a right-in, right-out driveway.
Driveway C is to be used for emergencies only.
The estimated site generated traffic volumes for the AM and PM peak hours under build-out
conditions were assigned to the site access points on Heritage Avenue based on the directional
distribution identified in Figure 1. These volumes are shown in Figure 2.
Two-Way Center Left Turn Lane
Based on the proposed site access configuration, we recommend the existing raised median between
Gateway Drive and the proposed Driveway A be removed, and a two-way center left-turn lane be
installed. General guidelines for the configuration of this two-way left-turn lane are shown in Figure
3.

The purpose of the Final Plat procedure is to allow a subdivider to submit for approval all the documents
necessary to fully develop the subdivision.
1. Minor Plats: A Minor Plat submittal shall be used when the property proposed for development is not
platted, contains four (4) or fewer lots and will not create a new street. A Minor Plat is intended to

the Minor Plat submittal shall contain the same exhibits as a Final Plat submittal.
2. Replats: A Replat submittal shall be used when a previously platted property is proposed for
redevelopment. A Replat may include an additional parcel of un-platted property when the size of
the un-platted portion does not dictate the submittal of a Preliminary Plat. The Administrative Official
responsible for subdivision review shall review each Replat application and determine whether or the
not the size of the un-platted portion of the proposed development warrants the submittal of a
Preliminary Plat. Where applicable, the Replat submittal shall contain the same exhibits as a Final
Plat submittal.

subdivision of an existing plat, without vacating the immediate previous plat:
a. A public hearing shall be required on the Replat at which interested parties and citizens have an
opportunity to be heard.
b. If any of the proposed area to be re-subdivided or re-platted, within the immediate preceding five
years, was limited by any interim or permanent zoning classification to residential use for not
more than two residential units per lot, or if any lot in the immediate previous subdivision was
limited by deed restriction to residential use for not more than two residential units per lot, notice
of the public hearing shall be given in advance in the following manner:
i. Publication at least 15 days before the date of the hearing in a newspaper of general
circulation in the City.
ii. A written notice of the public hearing shall be forwarded no less than fifteen (15) days prior to
the day of the hearing to the owners (as the ownership appears on the last approved ad
valorem tax roll) of all lots in the immediate preceding plat that are within 200 feet of the lots
to be re-platted. The notice may be served by depositing it properly addressed and postage
paid, in the United States post office.
c. If the proposed replat requires a waiver of a requirement and is protested in accordance with this
section, the proposed replat must receive, in order to be approved, the affirmative vote of at least
three-fourths of the members present of the Planning and Zoning Commission and/or City
Council. For a legal protest, written instruments signed by the owners. of at least 20 percent of
the area of the lots or land immediately adjoining the area covered by the proposed replat and
extending 200 feet from that area, but within the original subdivision, must be filed with the
Chapter 8 - Plat Review Procedures
Page 8 - 8

plat if the area to be re-platted was designated or reserved for other than single or duplex family
residential use by notation on the last legally recorded plat or in the legally recorded restrictions
applicable to the plat.

Plat shall be placed on the agenda for action by the approving body until a Preliminary Plat of a
subdivision has been previously approved in accordance with this Chapter. Upon approval of a
Preliminary Plat, a subdivider may file an application for approval of a Final Plat. The Final Plat shall
conform to the Preliminary Plat as approved and incorporate any and all changes, modifications,
corrections and conditions imposed by the prior approval. A Final Plat will not be presented to the
approving body for consideration, which fails to incorporate the recommendations of the Preliminary Plat
approval.
C. Final Plat Exhibits - The subdivider shall file an application for approval of a Final Plat with the
Administrative Official responsible for subdivision review, which shall contain the following exhibits to be

Meeting Date:
UPDATE
At the December 12, 2005, Planning and Zoning Commission meeting, the Commission
tabled this item in order to provide the applicant an opportunity to meet with the
adjacent property owners.
STAFF REVIEW COMMENTS
Request. Rezone from AG Agricultural and CN Neighborhood Commercial to PUD-C
Planned Unit Development Commercial.
Proposed Use. The applicant is requesting to rezone 4.0 acres of land located at 3798
and 3800 Glade Road, which is near the northwest corner of Glade Road and Heritage
Avenue. The applicant is seeking a zoning change in order to develop the property as
an office campus, with seven nonresidential lots and two open space lots. The
applicant proposes the following land uses: medical office, general office, and
beauty/barber salons.
Lot Sizes. The PUD-C standards require a minimum lot size of 7,000 square feet with
no maximum lot size. The developable lots in the proposed PUD-C request range in
size from 10,285 square feet to 28,701 square feet.
Open Space. The PUD-C regulations require a minimum of 20% open space. This
development proposes an open space area equal to 30% of the total development,
exceeding the PUD-C development requirement by 10%. All open space will be owned
and maintained by a Property Owner's Association.
The current PUD-C regulations limit the amount of open space area that can be used
for retention or detention ponds to a maximum of 25% of the open space. Lot 8, a
wet/dry detention area, has not been included in the percentage of total open space.
Therefore, the detention area on Lot 9 does not exceed the 25% storm water detention
threshold of the open space requirement.
In response to the Development Review Comment letter (attached to the briefing), the
applicant has indicated that the landscaping within the open space areas will meet the
Agenda Item No.5 - Page 1
standards within the Land Development Code. The applicant proposes to utilize the 20-
foot buffer along the north side of the property as landscaped courtyards by providing
patio areas.
Detention Ponds. The PUD-C exhibit indicates that the detention pond located within
Lot 9 will include a fountain. In response to the Development Review Comment letter,
the applicant has indicated that if Lot 8 is required to be a wet detention area a fountain
will be included as an aeration device. The specifications for the aeration devices will
be a requirement of the construction plans for the development. The Property Owner's
Association will be responsible for the maintenance of the aeration devices.
Fences, Walls and Screening. The developer proposes to construct a six (6) foot tall
wood crete or stonecrete fencing on the west, north and east property lines.
Statement of Planning Objectives. The developer has provided a written Statement
of Planning Objectives, which has been used for drafting the proposed PUD-C
ordinance for the subject property. A copy of the Statement of Planning Objectives is
attached to this agenda briefing. The Statement of Planning Objectives describes the
nature of the proposed development, includes a development schedule, a statement of
development goals.
Trail. A 10-foot wide public trail is required to be constructed along Glade Road.
Site Plan. The developer has provided a conceptual site plan, which will be
Incorporated into the PUD-C ordinance for the subject property. A copy of the proposed
site plan is attached to this agenda briefing.
The conceptual site plan shows the number of parking stalls based on Medical Office
uses. However, the applicant is also proposing General Office and Beauty/Barber
Salon uses that will require fewer parking stalls. The applicant is requesting that the
ordinance utilize a maximum number of parking stalls for the entire development, which
will provide sufficient parking for all proposed uses. The applicant proposes a total of
182 parking stalls for the development. In the Statement of Planning Objectives, the
applicant also indicates that some buildings will be sold with joint parking agreements to
mitigate any parking shortages on individual lots.
The conceptual site plan also shows proposed building square footages. The applicant
requests that the aggregate building square footage shown on the conceptual site plan
be an approximate total square footage and those individual owners of the lots are able
to increase the individual building square footage to exceed those shown on the site
plan. In order to regulate the total building square footage within the development, the
applicant proposes a maximum total square footage of 34,000 for the entire
development.
Drainage. The applicant's proposal includes on-site detention. The capacity of the
detention facility will be determined at time of platting. The applicant has submitted a
drainage plan to the Engineering Department.
Agenda Item No.5 - Page 2
Phasing. In response to the Development Review Comment letter, the applicant
proposes to construct both entrances off of Glade Road, the main fire lane loop and the
parking stall adjacent to the fire lane, both detention areas (Lots 8 and 9), all storm drain
facilities, all water and sewer facilities stubbed to each lot, complete landscaping of the
40-foot Glade Road setback and both detention areas, and the perimeter fencing.
Development of individual lots will be developed as the market dictates for build-to-suit
tenants.
Master Plan. The Colleyville Master Plan designates the future use of this area for
single family residential type land uses.
Surrounding Development Trends. The surrounding properties are agricultural and
single family residential. The property to the north, west and east is zoned AG. The
properties to the north and east are developed as single family residential uses. The
property to the west is developed for church uses. The property to the south is zoned
R30 and is developed for church uses. Property to the west is zoned AG and
developed as a church.
Property Taxes. According to information available from the Tarrant Appraisal District,
the 4.0-acre parcel is valued at approximately $266,179. The estimated City property
tax revenue for the existing property is $924 annually.
Traffic Generation. The Institute of Transportation Engineers publication Trip
Generation provides estimates of expected traffic generation based on land use. Data
has been collected in the United States and Canada since the 1960's, primarily in
suburban locations. General office uses are expected to generate 11.4 trips per 1,000
square feet gross floor area per day, on average. Based on this average, the seven
proposed lots would add approximately 387 vehicle trips per day to the surrounding
roadways.
Public Notification. Staff mailed notices to 17 adjacent property owners regarding this
request. Notice was published in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram as required by state law
and the Land Development Code. At the time of agenda preparation, no letters of
opposition to the request have been received.
