Asreques'fud by the City Pla}luer the cul-de-sac had been remDvep and a 60 foot thorQughfare put in thru the 'a-~ ve lopme nt taking an exit thru the CN portIon. There will be two exits = a~'access and egress. The adjourning property owner Herma;} Smith has agreed to let the contract for one of his streets at the same time the contract is let for the Mayfair Venture allowing there to be an exit onto Highway 121. This road will be a 50 foot street. If he decides not to follow this plan, then the re will an exit road going thru the eN portion. Chairman Joe Duepree read the letter from the City of Hurst. Discussion about the size of the streets followed and the section concerning the size of streets was read from the Ordinance 0 -70 -14 and the proposed zoning ordinance. It was decided that the plat meets the requirements, in regard to street sizes. The question about the drainage problem on San Bar Lane was discussed. This problem will have to be worked out by the time the final plat is submitted. MINUTES Planning and Zoning December 20, 1976 Page 2 . Judy Welch moved that we give preliminary plat approval subject or contingent to the drainage engineering being done by the time for final plat approval. Skip Gibson seconded. All voting for (5-0 the Chairman not voting). Motion carried. . Skip made the suggestion that Mr. Barfield be given a list of the names of the streets of Colleyville so that there would not be any similar names given to the new streets. Most of this development will be in the HEB school system. 1. Robert Taylor - Z-76-l06 Robert Neely read the ordinance 0-70-14 concerning whethe~ or not the sub-divider had to be present. His unc;1ers.tanpip$ of the ordinance was that the sub-divider or developer did not have to present. CHairman Deupree stated the law states that the plat must be acted upon in a certain amount of time or it is approved automatfcally. Action of somekinq should be ;"taken on this case~ as the time element is factor. Since Mr. Taylor was not present, i't was suggested that plat approval be given on the contingent that he furnisha copy of deed restrictions in keeping with the adjourning divisions. If the case is turned down, it can be re -heard without paying anymore money, this is not like a zoning case. H. L. "Skip" Gibson moved the City disapprove this due to lack of sufficient information as to drainage, curb and gutters, and dedication of the street. Judy Welch seconded. All voting for - 5-0. POLICY: The dedication of street must be by metes and bounds and filed with the County after the City appr,Qves the plat anq accepts the street, It needs to be ready for filing while the Comrttission is w9,rking on the p1at. All streets must be with metes and bounds and the title c9mpanies nee"d th~.dedications to work with. And the dedications should be dedicated to the :C~,tx.of Colleyville. 3. Vie McDonald - Z-76-l14 ~.....,......~~: The,re, wa.~s'ao pre s~nt to repre s~nt Mr. McDonald (Norma~ Ktlgore was present atwork sessJon). , ,",' '"> ,."., " There was some question as to'where or not Dr. Mai.:tln'sp''t'operty was curbed and guttered, Chairman Joe Duepree th6,ughLthat it'was a stipulation of nis plat approval.'" The question of the dedication of Windswept Trail was discussed, the papers are in the files but no intention as having been filed with the County. Dr. Martin 'had dedicated 60 foot right-of-way but there still no record of it being filed with the County. In 1975, Mr. Cummings and Mr. McDonald agreed to dedicate right-of-way but this was not carried thru. , , 'i;I . i R obert Neely read from Ordinance 0 - 70 -14 that building pe rmits can not be Issued until the preliminary and final plats are approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission. Understand that the original plat was filed with the County but the re is grading going on some lots on Windswe pt at the pre sent time, (the building permit was issued with the stipulation that the plat received the P&Z's approval or it wotIld be voided.) "Events ove r 3 months - all things that have happened have been in vi,olation of sub-division control ordinance. I submit that there. have been actions going on up there that I am upset about the whole thing. " o MINUTES Planning and Zoning December 20, 1976 Page 3 Judy Welch stated that this case as being very important - and dangerous, as it sets a precedent for future case s. H. L. "Skip" Gibson moved the Commission deny this application due to lack of street dedication;(insufficient dedication of Windswept Trail constitutes piece meals} and the lack of details of drainage. Mr. Gibson then withdrew his motion. Mr. Gibson moved the City deny the application for insufficient access and e gre s s; insufficient drainage information; ins ufficient documentation of the dedication of Windswept Trail>. This motion to deny because of less desirable entrance or in layman terms - there is only one way in and one way out and if a tree falls across the road the fire trucK: -could noLget in or out. Robert Neely seconded the motion. Discus sion followed - BruceSchollm,e ye r wanted ,to know how this could be ,fO, ,~", -""'-- '"'" ~-' ': settled without a court battle. Itcan;not gobackto City Council, they will have to e ithe r go to the Board of Adjtistment~ or ieyise plat or the commis sion can just give it approval. The vote was .5c't,Q 0, the'Q'lotion carried. The plat was disapproved. . The owners need to be nstified that the platyvas not ,approved, thus the building permit issued ishoW void, The City Secretaryneeds to notify the Building Inspector of the commission decision. Mr. Knape thought the letter should come from the Mayor as the Inspector takes his orders from him.
