Staff presented the update to the Commission. Mark Howe, 3100 Carisbrooke Court was present
to represent the case. He spoke about the reduction of the number of lots against the western
boundary; the proposed fence along the western boundary; the price of homes in the addition; and
the realignment of San Gabriel Drive in order to provide a larger buffer along Glade Road and
reduce the "tunnel effect" on Glade Road. He spoke about the economics of developing
commercial offices in the area as opposed to single family dwellings.
Commissioner Fletcher moved to reopen the public hearing. Commissioner Berges
seconded the motion. The vote being:
Ayes: Rutherford, Berges, Collins, Fletcher, Hart
Noes: None
Those present wishing to speak were:
Wayne Quenichet, 5005 Oak Timbers Ct., stated that he desired an 8' fence and he had
questions about the building line setbacks along the western boundary. He said that they
experience drainage problems on their property and do not want this development increasing the
problem. He said they would like to limit the dwellings to one story along the western boundary;
Terrance Grisso, 1205 Glade Road, stated that residential in this area is preferred over office use,
however the minimum standards for the city's residential developments still need to be
maintained; and
Maurine Weidman, 1204 Glade Road, a property owner within the development, stated that she
believes this plan would be a benefit to the area and would add to the beauty of the property. She
stated that this is a good plan and a good idea.
There being no one else present wishing to speak, the public hearing was closed. Mark Howe
responded to the citizens' comments and the Commissioners questions. He said that an 8' fence
and 20' rear yards would be required along the western boundary. He said that they would not
restrict dwelling to one story, however they would try to eliminate windows facing directly west.
Discussion ensued by the Commissioner about the lack of open space and the higher density
than allowed by the City's PUD-R district requirements.

5. Commissioners' comments and reports:
A. Consideration and discussion of Park Masterplan Update: Commissioner Fletcher
updated the Commission on the status of this project.
Commissioner Rutherford moved that notice be sent to the Colleyville Parks and
Recreation Board that the Planning and Zoning Commission believes that Colleyville has
some of the best park land inventory in Northeast Tarrant County. We also feel that any
future additions to park lands should benefit residents in the Eastern part of our city.
Future park facilities should:
1. Serve as buffers between residential and commercial uses;
2. Be in close proximity to Grapevine/Colleyville School District property
(Heritage Middle and High School).
3. Serve the needs of neighboring subdivisions whose residents have
consistently expressed their desire for quiet, uncluttered streets, with visual
and noise barriers from adjacent commercial property.
