on September 28, 2015
Community Development Director Abra Nusser presented this item and briefed the
City Council.
Mayor Kelly stated there may be some questions from residents about making this
a detailed document versus a higher level type document.

various plans which the City uses to execute the items in the comprehensive plan.

amendments to the Land Development Code. Mayor Kelly concurred.

areas are noted as residential, and it should be understood about the different
variations. Director Nusser agreed.

City of Colleyville Page 2
Councilmember Coplen asked staff about the McDonwell School Road connection
to Pleasant Run Road. Director Nusser replied an analysis has been completed
which indicates this is viable for connectivity.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor asked staff why the school campuses are included in the
Colleyville Boulevard corridor. Director Nusser replied if those uses change, over
time, and the building becomes something else, they could be incorporated into
the corridor for connectivity and form.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor asked about Little Bear Creek, and why the zoning is
wrapped behind the existing residential homes. Director Nusser replied there has
been recent development interest in this area; therefore, staff wants to ensure the
development preserves the established neighborhoods, and yet or still allows
something special that might be a great development opportunity for the
Colleyville Boulevard corridor.
Councilmember Short asked staff if the creek area is developable. Director Nusser
replied yes; however, there are obstacles to overcome.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated he appreciates the fact of looking at the school
locations for other uses, if necessary for the future.
Councilmember Wollin asked staff about the format of the open house. Director
Nusser replied it will be a come and go event, with no structure or presentation.
She stated there will be stations to visit to review the highlights of the plan. She
stated at the end, there will be plans to review to allow for residents to leave
specific comments or concerns.

City of Colleyville Page 7
The following persons did not wish to speak, but did wish to register their
opposition to this request: Bobby Lindamood, 4913 Jim Mitchell Trail W., and
Salman Moti, 6216 Emmas Court.
There were no others wishing to speak and Mayor Kelly closed the public hearing
at 8:12 p.m.
Mayor Kelly asked staff if the developer will have to do engineered drainage, if the
property is improved. Public Works Director Jeremy Hutt replied yes.
Mayor Kelly asked Mr. Bakintas if a 25 foot rear setback is something that could be
considered. Mr. Bakintas replied the current proposed setback is 20 feet on all lots,
except for the northern most lot and the two southern lots. He stated those lots
are at 15 feet due to lot configuration.
Mayor Kelly asked Mr. Bakintas about the five foot difference from the front yard.
Mr. Bakintas replied they were trying to be consistent with the development to the
north. Mayor Kelly stated it would seem the extra five feet could be placed to the
back, to create the 25 foot rear setback. Mr. Fegan stated this allows a larger
footprint for the builder for a 50 percent lot coverage.
Mayor Kelly asked staff why the extra five feet of pavement is needed for the
street width. Fire Chief Brian Riley replied the cul-de-sac street is one-way in and
one-way out, the extra space is needed for emergency operations.
Mayor Kelly asked staff if the length of the street triggers the need for extra
pavement width. Chief Riley replied this street is over 1,200 feet in length and the
extra pavement width allows for the stacking of emergency vehicles.
Councilmember Putnam asked staff about the residential density targets, since
there have been variances to this language in the past. Director Nusser replied the
PUDR section of the Land Development Code requires that PUDR zoning requests
come in at 1.8 dwelling units per acre. She stated it allows a density bonus to be
achieved, if they provide enhanced open space, such as trees being planted one
(1) per 50 linear feet. She stated in this case, the applicant is proposing one (1)
per 40 linear feet, and .1 percent of additional open space; therefore, they have
achieved the density bonus. She stated this automatically reflects deviations in lot
dimensions. She added the PUDR section does not cap the residential density, it
states the bonus is achieved under certain conditions.
Councilmember Putnam asked staff why we approve up to this level, if the
language states development shall not exceed 1.8 units, and with the density
bonus in this development, it calculates at 2.94, as this variances creates this
conflict within our own code. Director Nusser replied the section does not cap the
residential density, and staff considered this as a transitional area between
commercial and residential.
City Council Minutes October 5, 2015
City of Colleyville Page 8
Councilmember Putnam stated he understands the concept of a transitional area,
but all open land does not have to be developed, especially if it has the potential
to adversely affect the surrounding neighbors. Mayor Kelly stated there are higher
density products in this area that have been accepted by the community.
Councilmember Putnam stated the neighbors disagree, and he stated he does not
recall one neighbor who supports this request. Mayor Kelly stated there has to be
a balance with what is appropriate.
Councilmember Wollin stated the residents who live adjacent to this property on
Emmas Court have opposed this, and that speaks loudly. Mayor Kelly stated the
opposition for them was it is too close to their property. He stated they are
proposing a 25 foot setback.
Councilmember Wollin stated this extends too far from an R20 zoning district for a
transitional area.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated the Villas at Colleyville and the Emerald Park
subdivisions are all higher density products. He stated this is a residential piece of
property, and the proposed product is consistent with the products at both the
north and south ends. He further explained the development of this area.
Councilmember Mogged stated as the population ages, this product allows persons
to downsize; however, he added he has heartburn over this layout. He stated it is
a very important transitional area, but at the same time, it needs to be like
Colleyville.
Mayor Kelly stated this being a PUDR, City Council has the ability and discretion to
set the parameters of the PUDR.
Mayor Kelly asked staff about the depth of the proposed lots. Mr. Bakintas replied
127 feet. Mayor Kelly stated with minimum development depth and foot
requirements, other zoning districts will not be available.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated he stated he does not like alleyways, even with
fencing, and if the box culverts are placed, the potential for mosquito breeding can
occur.
Councilmember Coplen asked staff about drainage. Public Works Director Jeremy
Hutt replied there would be a portion of drainage to be conveyed through the
street with an inlet structure at the end of the cul-de-sac. He stated this
development would not be taking the creek flow into the street; this portion would
be conveyed into the open space next to the proposed street. Mr. Bakintas further
explained how the drainage works in this area.
City Council Minutes October 5, 2015
City of Colleyville Page 9
Councilmember Wollin stated she would like to see some additional work
completed for this development, such as transitional. She stated not being
confident it fits. She stated having concerns about density, drainage, and the one-
way-in-one-way-out street.
Councilmember Wollin made a motion to deny without prejudice.
Councilmember Mogged seconded the motion.
The motion to deny without prejudice carried by the following vote:
Aye: 6 - Mayor Kelly, Mayor Pro Tem Taylor, Councilmembers Carol Wollin,
Chuck Mogged, Chris Putnam, and Nancy Coplen
Absent: 1 – Councilmember Jody Short
6. ORDINANCE(S):
FIRST READING AND PUBLIC HEARING
6a Ordinance O-15-1971
Consideration of an amendment to the PUDC-Planned Unit
Development Commercial zoning district on Lots 2, 53, and 54, of the
Village at Colleyville, located at 18, 20, and 26 Main Street, Case
ZC15-016
Mayor Kelly read the caption of Ordinance O-15-1971.
Community Development Director Abra Nusser presented this item and briefed the
City Council.
Mayor Kelly opened the public hearing at 8:53 p.m.
Jeff Polk, 5705 Ponderosa Street, applicant, presented this item and briefed City
Council.
There was no one present wishing to speak and Mayor Kelly closed the public
hearing at 8:58 p.m.
Mayor Kelly stated the original design of this development is to be a walk-able
development. He stated the revised angle parking was granted due to the retail
uses versus service uses. He stated there is already angled parking to the east of
the subject property. He stated having concerns for the appearance of angled
parking at the entrance of this development.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor asked staff about the number of parking spaces. Director
Nusser replied there are six parallel parking spaces to be replaced by six angled
parking spaces. Mr. Polk replied there are actually five existing parking spaces.
City Council Minutes October 5, 2015
City of Colleyville Page 10
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor asked Mr. Polk if the angled parking would actually be
encroaching into his property. Mr. Polk replied yes.
Mayor Kelly stated parallel parking was a design element of the Village and there
have been no safety concerns with such.
Councilmember Mogged asked Mr. Polk if there is an actual study that states
angled parking is safer than parallel parking. Mr. Polk replied yes, and he stated
he would present that at the next meeting.
Mayor Kelly asked Mr. Polk to provide the proposed traffic volume with this use,
especially since there will be the same number of parking spaces.
Mayor Kelly asked Mr. Polk why the angled parking spaces to the east would not
work. Mr. Polk replied the accessible entrance will front Main Street; therefore, the
path of travel would be longer, and they would have to cross the street.
Councilmember Putnam asked staff about the original intent of the angled parking
along Mission Lane. Mayor Kelly replied those spaces were placed there since there
could not be a building placed next to the creek, and it added more parking.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor asked Mayor Kelly if the median would stay. Mayor Kelly
replied yes.
Councilmember Wollin asked Mr. Polk about the angle for these parking spaces.
Mr. Polk replied the same as currently exists further down, right at 45 degrees.
Mayor Kelly asked Mr. Polk about the entrance to the back of the building, and if
those parking spaces will be used by clients. Mr. Polk replied it is an accessible
entrance; however, the reception area will be located in the front of the building.
He stated the rear parking spaces will be used mostly for employees.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor asked Mr. Polk how they will be intentional about preserving
those spaces for their customers. Mr. Polk replied the most we can do is state that
no employees will not park there, but no signs can be placed on these spaces.
Mayor Kelly stated having concerns for the appearance of the main entrance to the
Village, with these parking spaces being angled.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated angled parking is rural, and it will not change the
appearance. He stated it has been an improvement on Main Street.
Mayor Kelly asked staff if these trees die, will the mitigation be to place them
elsewhere. Director Nusser stated it is preferred to replace them in the parkway;
however, if they cannot replace in the same number of caliper inches, they would
City Council Minutes October 5, 2015
City of Colleyville Page 11
be required to make up the difference, somewhere in the open space, as part of
the subject property.
Mayor Kelly stated worst case scenario, they could mitigate by moving those trees
elsewhere, and then there would no longer be a tree path.
Mayor Kelly asked Mr. Polk if an arborist could look at these trees. Mr. Polk replied
there is a letter in the packet from an arborist, which states the trees have a 50
percent survival rate.
Mayor Kelly asked Mr. Polk if they have considered five angled parking spaces to
leave more room for the trees. Mr. Polk replied yes, they considered that scenario;
however, it would only accommodate one tree.
Councilmember Wollin asked Mr. Polk if there will be a change in the elevation of
the trees. Mr. Polk replied no, and added by removing the concrete on each side of
the trees, the space will be enhanced for additional soil for the trees.
Councilmember Wollin asked Mr. Polk about tree protection during construction.
Mr. Polk stated the arborist has suggested a tree protection plan during
construction. Director Nusser added the tree drip lines are to be secured with
protective fencing during construction; however, staff is unsure if the drip line will
be secured during the proposed construction.
Councilmember Wollin asked Mr. Polk about the width of the parking area between
the trees. Mr. Polk replied six or seven feet.
This was a first reading; therefore, City Council did not take any action.
