remain as is but that they do not know specifically the plans for those
parcels.
Commissioner Dudziak questioned Mr. Biggers regarding if Walmart gets
involved in those types of plans? Mr. Biggers replied not typically since
they are going into an existing shopping center such as this. He stated if
they were to own and sell those parcels, then they would get involved.

elected not to purchase these. Mr. Biggers replied correct.

Commissioner Davis moved to approve case PC11-014. Commissioner
Rotthaus seconded.
Commissioner Dudziak stated that it is the job of this board to try to
maintain the integrity of a large piece of property so that in the future we
still have the ability to develop the town center as has been discussed
many times with the overlay discussions and the redevelopment of 26
projects and much citizen involvement that has asked us to keep these
properties in a whole form so that we can do something strategic for our
town center. He stated while this is a great economic development for

our town center, he stated he does not believe it is in the best interest to
separate it. He feels that more should have been asked for and
therefore he respectfully votes no.

Nay: 1 -Dudziak

7b Approval of a request to rezone 23 acres from the AG-Agricultural to
CC1-Village Retail with a Special Use Permit for a cemetery or
mausoleum on Tract 2601, Abstract 180 of the J.L. Byas Survey located
at 5725 Colleyville Boulevard, Case ZC11-026
Ron Ruthven presented the case and briefed the Commissioners.
Commissioner Dudziak questioned staff regarding if the applicant can
now put a mausoleum in any of the area that is being rezoned. Ron
Ruthven replied correct with a building permit. He further explained that
there is not a lot of land to be able to construct a mausoleum given the
fact that most of the land is grave plots.
Commissioner Dudziak questioned staff regarding if a multi-story
building could be built. Ron Ruthven replied yes but they would not be
able to go over 35 feet in height.
Commissioner Dudziak questioned staff if the applicant could build a
chapel? Ron Ruthven replied yes.
Commissioner Dudziak questioned staff if there were any other
structures that could be built on this parcel? Ron Ruthven replied that
technically, since the underlying zoning district is commercial, they could
build a commercial structure, like an office or retail building on the
property. He further stated that it would be problematic because of
having to move grave plots. He stated he does not anticipate seeing this
happen.
Commissioner Dudziak stated that if the right offer came in, it is possible
to build a commercial structure. Ron Ruthven concurred if all zoning
conditions are met.
Commissioner Byerly questioned staff regarding what type of building
design score is going to have to be met. Ron Ruthven replied that the
current ordinance does not specify design scores for institutional uses.
He stated that the CC1 zoning district would be have to meet a design
score of 30.

Planning and Zoning Commission
Commissioner Wheelwright questioned staff regarding if most of that
area is used as burial plots. Ron Ruthven replied, by using the exhibits
provided, to the west of the vacant area to the east of Broughton, is the
last undeveloped piece. He stated everything else is developed as grave
plots. He stated that the applicant can explain the areas.
Commissioner Byerly opened the public hearing at 7:15 p.m.
Julian Brown, representing Bluebonnet Hills Cemetery, came forward to
present the case and briefed the Commissioners. He further explained
that none of the burial plots will be moved.
There being no one wishing to speak, the public hearing was closed at
7:16 p.m.
Commissioner Knox questioned staff regarding if the SUP is to be able
to construct the building. Ron Ruthven replied yes, as it stands now, it is
a legal non-conforming use that can not be expanded therefore the
building permit is on hold depending on the rezoning.
Commissioner Knox questioned staff regarding if the rezoning is
approved then can the applicant build a building twice as tall as the one
that is currently out there? Ron Ruthven replied correct.
Commissioner Knox questioned staff regarding if a condition regarding
the height can be specified in the SUP? Ron Ruthven replied yes.
Commissioner Knox stated having an issue with a two story mausoleum,
or a 35 foot tall structure right on SH26.
Commissioner Knox moved to approve case ZC11-026 with an
amendment that the building eve height not exceed 17 feet.
