Staff has not had an opportunity to review the revisions and recommended that the Commission table the case. Chairman Lebo opened the public hearing. Those present wishing to speak were: Richard Myers, applicant, told about the uses he is requesting which are not in the CN zoning district. He informed the Commission that he met with the Hidden Oaks homeowners and had committed to constructing an 8' brick wall to buffer the homes in Hidden Oaks. He would request a waiver from the 5' foliage against the wall and will present an alternative in order to preserve the trees along the property line. Mr. Myers, indicated that he will move the dumpster to the back side of the building and screen any air conditioning equipment on the roof; Gary Lunsford, 5705 Hidden Oaks Drive, had concerns about security, tree preservation, sanitation and sewers. He is in favor of the project as long as Richard Myers honors his agreement with the homeowners; Kurt Eichelman, 5709 Hidden Oaks Drive, in favor of an 8' brick wall and the changes Mr. Myers has made to the plan; Steve Umlor, 5801 Hidden Oaks Drive, had questions about the hours of operation of the businesses; Terry Moore, 331 W. Harwood Rd., Hurst, had concerns about the lack of access from his property onto the proposed realigned Hall Johnson Road and also the proposed sign which could limit his ability to place a sign on his property along Colleyville Blvd.; Mike Moody, 5701 Hidden Oaks Drive, in favor of the 8' brick wall in lieu of the landscaping requirements; and Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes - May 11, 1998 Page 3 of 6 Scott Shanklin, 5700 Hidden Oaks Drive, in favor of the 8' brick wall and it should take precedence over dense foliage as a buffer. There being no one else wishing to speak, the public hearing was closed. The Commission requested that Richard Myers speak again to address the concerns of the neighbors. He agreed to curb cuts and cross access easements with the adjoining commercial property. Mr Myers said that the grocery store would probably be a specialty foods or gourmet food store rather than a full service grocery store. He acknowledged that the project was short a few parking spaces, however, if the calculations were done using a joint retail and office use, the required spaces would be reduced. Mr. Myers stated that he would enforce a 9:00 p.m. closing time for businesses and would use wall washer lights and security lighting which would not shine into the residential area. Following further discussion by the Commission, Chairman Lebo moved to TABLE the case to allow staff the opportunity to review the latest submittal. Commissioner Zim seconded the motion. The vote being: Ayes: Berges, Zim, Short, Fletcher, Hart, Lebo Noes: None 4.

Those present wishing to speak were: Mark Sharpel, 6005 Colts Neck Drive, opposed to the City Council opening Colts Neck Drive for through traffic for the reason of emergency response. He stated that the City is now proposing a fire station in that area and Colts Neck Drive should be closed because there are 28 children in a three block area who may be in danger; Tom Risockey, 6000 Colts Neck Drive, opposed to the connection of Remington Park to Colts Neck Drive; Gay Bearden, 6000 Bettinger, backs up to the new addition and does not want new large homes behind her because she wants the rural atmosphere to be maintained; and Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes - May 11, 1998 Page 4 of 6 Weldon Wilkes, 300 L.D.
