George Metcalf, 1102 Emerald Court stated concerns about the developer following through on
promises that the plan will be the same as the zoning exhibit;
John Hawkins, addressed the concerns of the citizens;
David Washington, Washington & Assoc., Hurst, explained the plat submittal process and the
documents needed in order to submit a preliminary plan and then a final plat. He said that they
are still working on the required engineering and construction plans, however the plat is ready to
submit. He recommended approving a plat subject to staff's approval of the engineering and
construction plans. He said that he did not want to limit John Hawkins' access options because
the access off Colleyville Blvd. is contingent on the completion of roadways in Monterra;
Tom Parker, 6300 Emerald Drive, spoke regarding the access issue;
Andrew Wayne, stated that he believed that they had the assurance of the developer that there
would be no construction traffic or any other traffic through Jewell Estates and now David
Washington's comments are counter to that commitment. He stated that it is unreasonable to
think that 15-year-old roadways could handle the weight of construction vehicles;
Fred Huege, stated that everything is given and then something is slightly taken back. He wants
guarantees rather than promises;
John Hawkins again addressed the concerns of the citizens.
Following discussion, Commissioner Hart moved to recommend approval of the zoning
change from AG to R30 and R20, Case Z-98-040B. Commissioner Rutherford seconded the
motion. The vote being:
Ayes: Rutherford, Berges, Hart, Collins, Fletcher, Short
Noes: None
Commissioner Berges thanked the citizens and the developer for being diligent in working through
the process to reach a compromise.
