1. PUBLIC HEARING - Zoning Change Request, from AG (Agricultural) to CC
(Community Commercial), 2.0 acres out of the Joseph M. Looney Survey, Abstract 936,
Tract 1A, Case Z-95-022, OWNER/APPLICANT: First Baptist Church of Colleyville/Baylor
Health Care System (West side of Colleyville Blvd. south of Church Street)
Staff presented the case to the Commission. Chairman Edwards opened the public hearing.
Those present wishing to speak were: Dr. Robin Hall, 6600 Connie Lane, in favor; John Wright,
1007 Church Street, in favor, however, had concerns and opposition about the construction of a
required fence to screen the commercial from the residential portion as the fence may call for the
removal of some very large trees along the property line. Jade Irondi, Planning Technician,
displayed a tree survey from the site plan for the Commission. There being no one else present
wishing to speak, the public hearing was closed. Tina Larson, Baylor Health Care System, was
present to represent the case. She stated that they prefer to not build a fence along the property
but it is a screening requirement and Baylor will work with staff to preserve the trees. Following
discussion, Commissioner Lebo moved to recommend approval of the zoning change
request from AG to CC, Case Z-95-022. Commissioner Hall seconded the motion. The vote
being:
Ayes: Smyth, Powell, Westerman, Lebo, Hall, McCollough, Edwards

asked if anyone in the audience had questions or wanted to comment on the preliminary plan.
Those present wishing to speak were: Bob Burke, 7213 Maranatha Court, distributed a packet
of information stating his concerns and listing development issues. The issues were: drainage
management, property value impact of small lots in proposed subdivision, traffic considerations
for John McCain Road, open space considerations, preservation of native oak trees, and
elevation of tract raised in violation of agreements; Charles Curry, 7212 Maranatha, in favor of
the construction of homes, however, expressed concerns about drainage; and Bob Hamilton,

Commissioner Lebo moved to approve the preliminary plan, Case P-95-025, for Timarron
Addition, subject to the final plat listing all notes and conditions adopted during the PUD-R
zoning change ordinance process and with the requirements to increase Lot 3, Block 1, to
13,000 sJ. minimum; change the front and street-side setbacks to 30'; set up the common

The vote being:
Ayes: Smyth, Powell, Westerman, Lebo, Hall, McCollough, Edwards
Noes: None
The Commission would like their comments on the following issues forwarded to the City Council:
Amenities in the park: The Commission would like some direction from City Council as to whether
or not they would like to see specific amenities for the private portion of this common green open
space listed on the plat. And if so, would the Council either give the Commission some direction
or suggest that the Park Board be involved in this issue?
Traffic: The Commission would like the City Council to be aware that the current traffic flow is
inadequate along some sections of John McCain and this subdivision further complicates the
problem and the City should address this issue immediately and move the John McCain traffic
problem up on the priority list.
