C. CLASSIFICATION AND PAY ADMINISTRATION
Effective Date: 11/18/96
Revised Date: 10/18/2000
1. Purpose
The purpose of this classification and pay plan is to organize personnel matters
and to make personnel decisions in an orderly and fair manner for all city
employees.
Specific objectives of the classification and pay plan are to:
a. Properly determine the duties, responsibilities, and necessary qualifications
for each position within the City;
b. Assist employees and job applicants in understanding each job and the
relationships among jobs;
c. Group similar positions into classes that can be described by the same job
titles, organize these positions, and assign them to pay ranges with other
classes that should be paid approximately the same;
d. Provide an organized system of pay ranges and steps to be used to (1)
assure equity across departmental lines and (2) reward employees for
exceptional performance through pay for performance; and
e. Establish procedures for administering and updating the plan. These
procedures for classification and pay administration apply to all employees of
the City. They are adopted to provide both an orderly and fair system of
compensating employees for their services and a merit basis for personnel
decisions.
2. Types of Positions
a. Classified Position - A classified position is an authorized and budgeted
position, which is assigned to a job class and to a pay range of the City's pay
plan. A classified position can be part-time or temporary.
b. Unclassified (Special) Position - An unclassified position is an authorized
and budgeted position for which the pay is set by individual determination.
Unclassified positions of the City are (1) the City Manager, and (2) those
EXHIBIT 0-2 OF 6
hourly, part-time, or seasonal positions which, in the judgment of the City
Manager, should not be placed in a regular classified position.
3. Classification and Pay Administration
a. Hiring - New employees are hired into classified positions unless specifically
designated as unclassified. New employees normally are hired on Step 1 of
the pay range to which their position is assigned.
A new employee may not be hired above Step 1 in the appropriate pay range
without specific written approval from the City Manager. The City Manager's
approval to hire above Step 1 will be conditioned upon the following:
1) The prospective employee's unusually high qualifications or significant
experience that clearly warrants higher pay;
2) Hiring above Step 1 will not disrupt current internal salary relationships;
3) Funds are available in the City's personnel budget to finance the higher
pay rate for the remainder of the fiscal year; and
4) The action is in the best interest of the City.
A Department Head must submit written justification based on the above
criteria to the City Manager who, after careful review, makes the final decision
for all new hires whose entry salaries will be above Step 1.
b. Hiring in a Lower Pay range - A new employee, or existing employee being
considered for promotion, whose qualifications or experience for the position
sought are marginal, may be placed at a step on the pay plan below Step 1 of
the pay range for the position. An employee hired below Step 1 will be
advanced to the proper step after a period of probationary employment not to
exceed six months, if the employee is to remain in that position. The
Department Head is authorized to extend the probationary period beyond six
months for a period of time not to exceed an additional 90 days. Probationary
hiring should not be used for current employees who meet all job
qualifications, but only for those whose qualifications fall short of the job's
stated requirements, and who may take a longer than normal time to meet the
job requirements fully.
c. Introductory Increase - With the exception of sworn and/or certified police
and fire employees who serve a probationary period of one (1) year, all new
permanent employees serve a probationary period of six months. Following
their initial six months of employment, all employees are eligible to advance
from the pay step on which they are hired (usually Step 1) to the next step
within their assigned pay range on the pay schedule (usually Step 2) based
EXHIBIT 0-3 OF 6
on adequate performance during their first six months of emplo}'ment. An
employee whose initial six-month period of employment has not been
acceptable or is in question will be denied the initial six-month step increase.
All future step increases are based on exceptionally good performance of an
employee in an assigned position.
d. Merit Increases - A merit increase is an advancement to a higher step in the
same pay_range and is granted to recognize good or excellent performance in
the same position.
1) A merit increase cannot increase an employee's base salary beyond Step
15 of the position. Merit increases are not used to recognize increased
duties and responsibilities (a promotion). Since the intent is to recognize
exceptionally good performance, merit increases should be granted in
conjunction with a review of the formal performance evaluations of the
employee for the current evaluation period. Merit increases are
recommended by the employee's Department Head and approved by the
City Manager within authorized budget limits.
For the City of Colleyville, merit increase calculations are based on the
employee's performance evaluation rating and any limitations imposed by
the City Council and/or the City Manager during the budget process.
Employees in pay ranges 101 through 212 may receive no increase, a
one-step, a two-step, or three-step increase based on their performance
evaluation ratings and fund availability. Once an employee reaches Step
15 in pay ranges 101 through 212, he/she is eligible for a lump sum merit
increase. This increase is based on the employee's performance
evaluation rating and funds for this purpose having been set aside by the
City Council. Employees may receive no increase, a one-step, two-step,
or three-step lump sum increase paid on the first pay cycle in October with
the approval of the Department Head, and City Manager. An employee is
considered for a merit increase once a year, provided that funds for this
purpose have been set aside by the City Council.
2) Employees in pay ranges 213 through 218 receive varying amounts of
increases, depending upon their performance evaluation ratings, as
determined by the City Manager and budgetary limitations, provided that
no employee receives a merit increase which exceeds 15 percent of his or
her current salary.
e. Promotion - A promotion is a change in the duty assignment of an employee
from a position in one classification to a higher position in another
classification in a higher pay range. A promotion recognizes advancement to
a higher position requiring higher qualifications and involving greater
responsibility. Promotions are recommended by the employee's Department
Head and are approved by the City Manager within the staffing pattern and
EXHIBIT D- 4 OF 6
budget limits approved by the City Council. An employee receives a five
percent increase if the promotion is to a classification which is one pay range
higher, a 10 percent increase if the position promoted to is two pay ranges
higher, but not more than a 15 percent increase unless the employee would
receive more than 15 percent to go to Step 1 of the new pay range. (For
exceptions involving marginally qualified current employees, see Chapter IV,
Section C.4.b. Hiring in a Lower Pay range.)
Firefighter/Emeroencv Medical Technician (EMT) oositions bv receiot of
oaramedic certification receive an adiustment to the Firefiahter/Paramedic
oav orouo as outlined in the oromotion ouidelines above.
f. Demotion - A demotion is a change in duty assignment of an employee from
a position in one classification to a position in another classification in a lower
pay range. An employee who is demoted will have his or her pay reduced to a
rate at least one pay step below the rate received before demotion, but not
more than the top pay step of the employee's new classification. Demotions
are made by the employee's Department Head with the concurrence of the
City Manager.
g. Appointment to a Position in an Acting Capacity - An employee may be
appointed in an "acting" capacity in a position that is temporarily vacant
pending the hiring of a replacement, temporarily vacant due to an extended
illness or approved leave of absence, or when the City Manager deems the
appointment is in the best interest of the City. Sworn and/or certified police
and fire employees are exempt from this policy, and will be compensated for
out-of-class pay as dictated by state law. The City Manager's consent to
appoint an employee in an "acting" capacity will be given upon satisfaction of
the following criteria. All four numbered paragraphs listed below must be
considered together in making a determination about whether to appoint an
employee to serve temporarily in an acting capacity:
1) When a position is vacant or if the incumbent is expected to be absent for
at least three weeks, an employee may be appointed to serve in an
"acting" capacity until the position is filled or the incumbent returns to
work. While serving in an Acting capacity, the employee shall be paid the
minimum rate of the higher classification (but not less than five percent
above his/her normal rate of pay) for the period in which he/she serves in
an Acting capacity;
2) "Acting" appointments and temporary assignments with higher pay may be
made only when the continuity of an operation requires the designation of
an employee in the higher classification and are not intended to be made
for casual assignments of supervisory or administrative responsibility;
EXHIBIT 0 -5 OF 6
3) A Department Head must receive written approval from the City Manager
before appointing an employee to an "acting" position or temporarily
assigning an employee to a higher classification when that assignment
would result in higher pay;
4) At the conclusion of the "acting" time period, the affected employee's
salary will be returned to the rate of pay received prior to the "acting"
appointment.
h. Reclassification of Positions - A reclassification is a reassignment of a
position to a lower, higher, or different class job title based on current duties
and responsibilities of the position. Upward reclassification does not
automatically receive a pay increase unless an increase occurs to place the
employee on the first step of the new pay range. When a position is
reclassified to a lower pay range, an employee in that reclassified position
whose salary is above the top step of his/her new pay range shall be placed
at the top step of his/her new pay range one year from the effective date of
his/her reclassification. Reclassifications are recommended by the
Department Head and approved and implemented by the City Manager within
budget limitations (see Chapter IV, Section C, 4.b(3)).
L Reallocation of Classes to Pay ranges - Reallocation is the reassignment
of an entire class of positions to a new pay range. Reallocation can be to
either a lower or a higher pay range. Reallocations are recommended by the
Department Head and approved and implemented by the City Manager within
budget limitations.
j. Cost-of-Living Adjustment to Pay Schedule - The City of Colleyville has an
interlocking and progressive pay schedule. Interlocking means that the pay
rates are repeated several times as one moves from lower to higher pay
ranges. For example, Step 3 of Pay Range 101 is the same as Step 1 of Pay
Range 102. Progressive means that within each pay range there is a series of
merit steps; each step is separated from the next lower step by a constant
two and one-half percent increment; and each pay range is separated from
the next group by five percent. Overall increases or decreases in the pay
schedule are authorized only upon approval of the City Council. The
interlocking and progressive nature of the pay schedule simplifies
across-the-board salary adjustments. To adjust the entire pay schedule by a
constant percentage increase, multiply the hourly amount for each step in
Pay Range 101 by the appropriate number (Le., multiply by 1.05 to achieve a
five percent increase). After multiplying each hourly step amount in Pay
Range 101 across, multiply the constant percentage increase amount times
each hourly figure in Steps 14 and 15 for the remainder of the pay range.
The remaining numbers of the revised hourly pay schedule can be inserted
EXHIBIT 0.0 OF 6
from the preceding pay range (Le., Step 1 of Pay Range 102 is the same as
Step 3 of Pay Range 101; Step 3 of Pay Range 102 is the same as Step 5 of
Pay Range 101; etc.). After all hourly amounts for the revised pay schedule
have been calculated and inserted, figures for the appropriate pay bases are
calculated as follows: (1) for annual amounts, multiply the hourly figure by
2080; (2) for biweekly amounts, multiply the hourly figure by 80; and (3) for
monthly amounts, divide the annual amount by 12.
For 24-hour certified fire department positions, the hourly rate calculations are
performed differently. Employees in these positions work different numbers
of hours from other city employees. To determine the hourly rate for these
certified fire department positions, divide the annual salary amount in the
appropriate pay ranges and steps by 2920. For biweekly amounts, divide the
annual figure by 26; for monthly, divide the annual figure by 12.

Approval of a Final Plat for Riverwalk at Colleyville
Addition, requested by Charles Searcey for D.R.
Horton-Texas Ltd., 20.054 acres located on the
north side of Glade Road at the future Riverwalk
Drive, Case P-00-065 - by Consent
Reading and Public Hearing
Backoround
D.R. Horton-Texas, represented by Gordon Jones, is the owner of a 20.054-acre parcel
of land located on the north side of Glade Road at the future intersection with Riverwalk
Drive. The owner has submitted a Final Plat of the property for review and
consideration by the City Council. The plat will create 56 lots for the construction of
single family residences.
The following is an analysis of the major issues associated with this request.
Zoning. The property is zoned PUD-R Single Family Residential. The approved PUD-
R requires a minimum lot size of 6,331 square feet, a minimum lot width of 60 feet,
and a minimum lot depth of 115 feet. The lots meet these minimum requirements.
The smallest lot size is 6,900 square feet, with an average lot size of 9,027 square
feet.

Riverwalk Drive. The developer, in coordination with the adjacent property owner, will
construct Riverwalk Drive as part of this development. Right-of-way for the road is
being dedicated with this plat. Construction plans for Riverwalk Drive have been
submitted with a plat for the property on the opposite of Riverwalk from this
development.
Open Space. Open space is being dedicated with this plat. A significant portion of the
open space is being used for drainage detention areas. The PUD-R ordinance for
this property requires the development to detain eight acre-feet of water on the site.
The detention amount exceeds the normal requirement due to a negotiated
arrangement for the development of the commercial property to the north. While the
open space amount is less than 20% for this portion of the PUD-R, when the office
property adjacent to Glade Road develops, the entire PUD-R will exceed the
minimum 20% requirement.
Trail System. The developer is required to construct a 12.5-foot wide hike/bike trail
along Riverwalk Drive. The trail will be located adjacent to Riverwalk Drive and the
detention ponds on the property. The requirement for the trail and the extra storm
water detention were both included in the PUD-R ordinance for this property.
The Planning and Zoning Commission approved this Final Plat at its September 25,
2000 meeting by a unanimous vote.

Approval.

Backaround
On February 2, 1999, the City Council approved an agreement with Brinkley Sargent
Architects (R-99-1456) to provide architectural services for the design of the Colleyville
Justice Center. During the programming and design phase it was determined that an
audio/visual design service should be consulted as part of the project. The audio/visual
service consultant will ensure that the courtroom and the training/EOC will have the
appropriate acoustics, sound systems and visual media equipment. They will review
and coordinate power and telephone as well as the acoustical engineering. Additionally
they will handle the specification, bidding and installation review of the sound system,
including final tests of all systems and training of city staff in the sound system. We
also determined that an Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) consultant should be
included. The consultant will ensure that we are in compliance with all ADA standards
and conduct the state-required inspection of the completed facility.

The improvements will include the addition of box culverts at Sherwood Lane that will
accommodate the 100-year storm event and various channel improvements
approximately 600 feet upstream of Sherwood Lane. The improvements to Sherwood
Lane will decrease the base flood elevation and will shorten the response time for
Police and Fire during large rain events; that overflow both Cheek-Sparger Road and
Sherwood Lane.

Attachment " A"
Scope of Services for Design of
Brighton Oaks Drainage Plan in Colleyville, Texas
The scope of the project includes the advanced planning and engineering work required to complete
the design and construction of approximately 700 linear feet of channel improvements, transition
sections upstream and downstream of the project, and new box culverts at Sherwood Lane.
Preparation of this proposal is based on the following assumptions:
I. The design will be confined to the open channel and existing side drain(s) outfalls to the
channel. No other drainage improvements will be designed beyond the channel limits.
2. The proposed channel will generally follow its existing alignment. The channel side slopes
will be re-graded and protected with a gabion mattress, rock riprap, or erosion mattress. The
channel bottom will remain a natural earthen flow.
3. The condition of the existing utilities adjacent to the existing channel is assumed to be
satisfactory. No utility replacements will be designed.
4. Channel design will be based upon peak flood discharges computed for the Conceptual Plan.
No additional hydrologic analysis will be conducted for this project.
The proposed work plan has been divided into four phases: Phase I - Concept Design Study
(complete); Phase II - Preliminary Design; Phase III - Final Design, and Phase IV Construction.
The scope of services to be performed for each phase is described as follows.
I. PHASE I - CONCEPT DESIGN STUDY (complete)
ll. PHASE n - PRELIMINARY DESIGN
A. Corps of Engineers Section 404 Permit
I. Develop a plan of improvements with appropriate mitigation.
2. Coordinate project with Corps of Engineers. Note, recent conversations with the
Corps of Engineers indicate this project could be permitted under Nationwide
Section 13.
3. Prepare documentation for a Corps of Engineers Nationwide Section 13 Permit for
channel bank stabilization.
B. Design Surveys
I. Establish the proposed centerline or a suitable reference base line on the ground.
2. Obtain complete and accurate cross section data at a maximum of 50' intervals and
at major grade breaks.

SUBJECT:
An amendment to the PUD-C, 0-96-1024, to allow
living quarters in a commercial building requested
by Behjat McElroy, New Synergy Inc., on Lot 1,
Block 1, Cavillino Park located at 1001 and 1005
Village Park.
Second Reading and Public Hearing
First Reading and Public Hearing
BackQround
Behjat McElroy has applied to amend the PUD-C zoning ordinance for property located
at 1001 and 1005 Village Park. The applicant proposes to construct living quarters in
two buildings located on this site.
The existing PUD-C ordinance for this property (0-96-1024) allows office and service
uses on the property. In order to mix commercial and residential uses in the same
structure, the PUD-C must be amended to specifically allow the residential use. Similar
combinations of uses were approved for the Ritz Office Building (4901 Bransford Road)
and the Village at Colleyville projects.

The applicant proposes a single living unit in two buildings on site. The following table
summarizes the parameters associated with this request.
Leasable Area
5,000 sf
5,041 sf
3,342 sf
Residence Size
2,000 sf
850 sf
1,867 sf
Staff sent notices of the zoning change to 14 property owners within 200 feet of the
property under consideration. Staff has received letters from six property owners
opposed to allowing residential units in a commercial structure. Copies of the letters are
attached.
The letters of opposition to the requested rezoning change constitute a written petition.
Chapter 211 of the Local Government Code states in part "...if a written objection to a
proposed rezoning request is signed by the property owners of at least 20% of the area
within 200 feet of the property in question, the affirmative vote of three-fourths of the
City Council is required to approve the request." Staff has analyzed the petition and
determined that the owners of more than 20% of the land area within 200 feet of this
rezoning request submitted letters of opposition. Therefore, a "super majority" vote by
the City Council is required to approve this rezoning request.
The Planning & Zoning Commission conducted a public hearing and considered this
zoning change request at its September 11, 2000 meeting and recommended approval
of the request by a 4-2 vote (Edwards and Fletcher opposed), subject to the following
requirements:
1. The construction of a 6-foot tall masonry fence, from the notch in the existing metal
fence, east along the common property line to the eastern property line on Bedford
Road.
2. The fence must be built when the exterior of the third building is completed.
3. The maximum residential living area square footage be included in the ordinance

Planning & Zoning Commission minutes
PUBLIC HEARING - An amendment to the PUD-C, 0-96-1024, to allow living quarters
in a commercial building requested by Behjat McElroy, New Synergy Inc., on Lot 1,
Block 1, Cavillino Park located at 1001 & 1005 Village Park. Case Z-00-061
Barry LeBaron presented the case to the Commission. He told them that the original
PUD on the property was approved in 1996 and allowed uses for offices and service
uses and the applicant is requesting to add a residential component. The one building
that is 5,000 s.f. will have 2,000 s.f. of residence and the building that is about 5,000 s.t.
will have 850 s.f. residence. He said that a number of written letters of opposition have
been received and are included in the packet.
Commissioner Edwards said that staff noted that the residential use would have an
immediate positive impact and she asked staff to explain their reasoning. Mr. LeBaron
said that combined commercial/residential use has been a fairly new phenomenon and
for years cities tried to separate the uses. He said that over the last five years there has
been a trend to combine the uses and Colleyville has already done that. He said that by
getting additional eyes that live within a commercial area, a security benefit is added by
people still being in the development rather than vacating at the end of the work day.
Commissioner Edwards asked if a mixed use would change the rear yard setbacks. Mr.
LeBaron said that they wouldn't unless the Commission wanted to change them in the
PUD ordinance. Commissioner Edwards said that the 1005 building is located very
close to the property line and she hopes that there are no windows on the back side of
the building. She asked if a residential use is approved, could they still use a 10'
setback with no windows. Mr. LeBaron said that they could build it to the site plan or
any other conditions imposed by the Commission. .
Commissioner Tyler said that he read the opposition letters and asked staff if anyone
called to identify what their particular complaint was. Mr. LeBaron said that he did not
talk to anyone. Commissioner Tyler asked if there was a restriction as to how many
people could live in the residential unit or is there a way to limit the number. He said
that he would like to hear from the opposition.
Chairman Hart opened the public hearing. Those present wishing to speak were:
Mehrdad Moayedi, 3708 San Taiga, Irving, said that he is the owner of the property and
his mother, Behjat McElroy is the applicant. He said that the project was not initially
envisioned for residential use, but is a recent concept because of requests for purchase
and lease of the two buildings. He said that the 800 s.f. unit will not be a permanent
residence as the people leasing the building are an investment firm out of California.
He said that they wanted to have a place to stay for people who come from out of town
on a temporary basis. Mr. Moayedi said that there is a person trying to purchase the
second residence and if that does not materialize, his mother who is a single person,
will be living there on a permanent basis.
Mr. Moayedi said that he believes that the problems the neighbors have stems from the
fact that the project has taken so long to develop and relates to the fence and other
issues on the property line. He said that he has been working with.. staff and the
changes in the road design to connect Glade and Village Park have delayed their
project. He said that he cannot start the last building until the design for the road is
completed. He said that once staff gives him the proper elevation for the road they will
know where to construct the slab. Commissioner Hill asked the owner if the smaller
guest quarters will be used by people on a temporary basis with them coming and
going. Mr. Moayedi said that he cannot tell the Commission how many times a week
the living quarters will be used, but it will be used by employees from California and
New York and will remain a residential type of use. He said that the second property
will be more of a permanent residential property. He said that it will be more toward
Village Park across from LaPlaza that also has a same situation.
Commissioner Fletcher asked Mr. Moayedi if he has met with the neighbors and he
responded that he has not, but he has met with the staff to try to resolve the problems.
He said that he cannot resolve the problem unless he gets building permits to complete
the project, but he will be willing to meet with the neighbors. He said that his mother
has met with the neighbors. He said that as the owners, they are required to provide
some sort of screening and they have upgraded it to a masonry wall and that should
make the neighbors happier. He said that they are not required to use masonry but
they are willing to.
T. U. Tutt, 4800 Bedford Road, adjacent to the south said that originally they had no
opposition to the commercial project as it would be better than apartments. He said that
apartments do not belong in a residential area and all six landowners within 200' have
written opposition. He said that there is a rented house in the area that creates
problems and the occupants cannot be evicted because of laws and a similar situation
may happen on this proposed rental property. Mr. Tutt said that people typically do not
take care of apartments. He said that when the project was passed in 1996, the
minutes reflected that a 6' masonry fence along their property would be constructed.
He said that staff advised that the 6' masonry fence would be constructed and the
Planning and Zoning Commission approved the change with staff's recommendations.
He said that the original zoning exhibit includes a proposed masonry fence along his
property. Mr. Tutt said that they probably don't need to build a masonry fence along the
entire length of the property because he has a good steel fence along a portion of the
joint property line. He said that it is a steel fence on a concrete footing and the
applicant has piled dirt along his fence as high as 2 to 3 feet high and it will rot the
fence. Mr. Tutt said that he has asked the owners to fix the problem. He said that he
has a very bad drainage problem created by the runoff from this property. He said that
the City Engineer has looked at the situation and there is a gully that has eroded off the
commercial place and it needs to be filled in. He said that the problem he has with the
request is that the owners already don't care what happens to the neighbors and
transient residents will care less and not take care of the property. He said that the
owners tell him that they will fix the problems and then they totally ignore his requests.
Mr. Tutt said that he has lived in Colleyville for 40 years. He also said that the parking
spaces are very limited and he is not interested in selling his property to increase
parking. He said that this is not the place for residential. He said that he has to clean
up from roofing materials, trash bags, paper cups and other debris. Mr. Tutt said that if
a family moves in with children, there would be no areas for children to play and the
owners cannot discriminate if a family wants to move in with children. He said that he
has tried to be a good neighbor and agreed with the original zoning change request, but
the fence has not been constructed and the drainage has gotten worse, dirt is piled
against his fence, so he is opposed to the current request.
Commissioner Edwards asked Mr. Tutt to indicate where his existing fence is located on
the overhead. He said that it was indicated earlier that the setbacks are limited by
windows and the building closest to Bedford Road does have windows on the second
floor facing their property.
Commissioner Fletcher asked staff if they were aware of the requirements for a brick
wall in the original ordinance. Mr. LeBaron said that he was not, but would have to
research. He said that this proposed ordinance does have provisions for a masonry
wall and the Commission can place restrictions and conditions on their
recommendations. Commissioner Rutherford said that the applicant has agreed to do
that.
Axel Holland, 1000 Jo Carol Lane, directly east of the 1005 Village Park building. He
said that he had the opportunity to come to the meetings four years ago and at that time
they heard a lot of promises from the developer as they have heard tonight. Mr. Holland
said that the neighborhood has a problem with the credibility of the developer as he has
promised a lot of things and has not fulfilled his promises. He said that staff has spoken
about mixing residential with commercial property and one of the benefits is someone to
keep an eye on the property and he would like to assure the board that he lives directly
to the east and will keep a good eye on it too. Mr. Holland said that not only did Mr. Tutt
not get a fence, there should be a drainage plan. He said that there is runoff going into
the existing neighborhood and part of the drainage will not be restrained by a fence
alone. Mr. Holland said that four years ago, the issue of multi family property was
addressed by changing the area property to single family fora mile or so down the
street. He said the issue of multi family was addressed and voted down and he finds it
difficult to believe that they are sitting at this meeting to consider rental units in the
neighborhood. He said that he is not in favor of a favorable consideration of the
request.
Mehrdad Moayedi responded that the developer that originally zoned the property was
not them and they did not make any promises that they did not uphold and Mr. Holland
needs to get that straight. He said that the conditions were made by Mitchell Properties
and they bought it already zoned. He said that they were not aware of a requirement for
a masonry fence yet they were voluntarily going to construct one. Mr. Moayedi said that
Baker Development built the buildings and went out of business and left the property
with a bigger drainage problem that currently exists. He said that they have spent about
$170,000 across the street to correct the problem that eventually affects the Tutts
property. He said that he wants it made clear who they are and how they got there.
Mr. Moayedi said that they are not creating apartments and the building that is closest
to Mr. Holland will have a permanent residence. He said that the other building would
have an executive suite for people to come and go. He said that the Highway
Department is responsible for the road alignment to connect Thompson Terrace and
Glade Road in the next thirty days. He said that the engineering firm had to correct all
of the elevations for the area before they could be advised where to put the slab for the
new building. He said that he would construct the retaining wall once the road is
designed. He said that the comment on their credibility may have been made without
knowledge of all of the facts. He said that his site plan turned into the city does not
state a masonry fence, but that is something that they are voluntarily doing. He said
that there will be a drop inlet that will be put in when the slab on the next building is
poured. He said that the drainage cannot be fixed in such a small area without the inlet
and the slab being poured. The grass cannot be planted to help the drainage until the
building is finished.
Commissioner Hill asked Mr. Moayedi when he purchased the property. He said that it
was about two years ago. He said that he has sent guys on tractors to clean up the
debris and dirt piles against the fence. He said that there couldn't be erosion because
of no rain and how dry everything is. He said that staff asked him to do a temporary fix
while they review the road design plans and elevations.
T.U. Tutt displayed a copy of the zoning exhibit that was approved with the zoning
change. He showed where it indicated a "proposed masonry fence" along his property.
He talked about the erosion and said that he has fine irises and roses and they are
being washed out when there were rains in the spring.
The Commission discussed with the applicant the number of parking spaces and the
requirements for a mixed use. Commissioner Edwards said that there would be shared
access and parking and it appears that it is adequate. They discussed taking 2,000 s.f.
out of the office parking ratio and how the residential would require less parking than an
office use.
Mr. Moayedi said that the tenant of the smaller unit would have a 3 year lease with an
option to buy. He said that this would be their D/FW headquarters and they would use
the suite when they had someone working from out of town.
There being no one else present wishing to speak, the public hearing was closed.
Staff said that they did not know why the masonry wall has not been built yet if it was
required with the PUD. Mr. LeBaron said that if the Commission wanted to make that a
part of the conditions, they need to indicate beside the specifics, the time that it is to be
constructed. He said that it is possible that the language was not clear in the previous
PUD. The Commission asked the applicant to address the timing of constructing a
masonry wall. Mr. Moayedi said that he will be willing to construct the wall once he has
a permit to construct the slab and get the framing structure of the third building in place
so that it doesn't damage the wall once it goes up. He said that he doesn't need to
have the inside done, just the framing in place, structurally with the roof on then he can
build the fence, landscape and put grass in so it doesn't hurt anybody's yard.
Commissioner Rutherford asked Mr. Moayedi to get with Mr. Tutt to work out the
drainage situation. He said that he would be glad to.
Commissioner Hill asked Mr. Moayedi about the location of the masonry fence. He said
that there is an existing fence placed in a concrete wall. He said that he could put a
masonry fence in front of the wall, but he couldn't insert a masonry fence inside of
where the wall is now. He said that he hopes that with the Tutt's permission, they could
take their fence down so that there aren't two fences on top of each other. He said that
he would get with the Tutts to work out the details. They determined that there was 235'
along the common property lines.
Commissioner Edwards said that she is a little confused because Mr. Tutt said that he
would prefer to keep his steel fence and Mr. Moayedi would only need to build a
masonry wall on the front part of the property. Mr. Moayedi said that from his side there
would be two different fences and that would be o.k. because he plans on heavily
landscaping the area. Mr. Moayedi said that he would be all right with leaving Mr. Tutt's
fence and constructing a masonry wall, and if Mr. Tutt wants a wall built along the entire
length of the property, he would do that too.
Chairman Hart told Mr. Tutt that they wanted to make sure that they are taken care of.
He asked Mr. Tutt if he was o.k. with leaving the metal fence on the property. Mr. Tutt
said that the metal fence was fine with him and he has a concrete footing that comes up
12" high, but they have piled dirt up against it and have not gotten it out of it like they
said they would. Chairman Hart asked Mr. Tutt if the first portion of masonry wall was
built, would it improve what they are looking at Mr. Tutt said that it would and he has
tried to diminish the buildings by putting lattice up and planting rose bushes, but he can't
cover it all. Mr. Moayedi asked Mr. Tutt if he knew whether or not he knew if the steel
fence was on his property or theirs. Barry LeBaron said that if Mr. Moayedi was
required to put up a masonry screening wall, it is his responsibility that it is on his
property and a surveyor can determine the location. He said that the requirement for
the fencing is placed on the commercial and not the residential.
Commissioner Rutherford moved to recommend approval with the construction
of a masonry 6' fence approximately 235' in length to be built on or about after
the third building is in place structurally.
Commissioner Hill questioned what structurally complete means. Commissioner
Rutherford said that it would be when the exterior of the building is completed.
Commissioner Rutherford amended his motion to when the exterior of the
building is completed.
Staff asked for a clarification. Barry LeBaron said that there is 235' from the southwest
corner of the property to the first notch along the point where the existing metal fence is
located. He said that there is an additional 181' to Bedford Road. He said that the
motion mentioned a specific distance that was on the side where the existing fence is
located. Commissioner Rutherford amended his motion to be approximately 181'
from the southeastern property line to the notch where the metal fence begins.
Commissioner Hill seconded the motion.
Commissioner Edwards said that she has some concerns about the smaller residential
unit. She said that she is aware that the developer has some plans for it in the next few
years, but what is going to happen three to four years later. She asked the Commission
if that is something they want to get into. She said that she actually likes mixed uses,
but there was a lot of opposition with this request. She said that she does not have a
problem with the larger residential unit because someone will always be living in it, but
the smaller one the company may sell and then it becomes vacant.
Commissioner Fletcher said that he has to agree with Commissioner Edwards'
statement. He said that it is not the fence or the drainage that concerns him, but he is
concerned about the compatibility of zoning. He said that with an existing structure in
an existing neighborhood, they would be changing the character of the neighborhood by
approving the request and the 800 s.f. unit lends itself to becoming a rental property.
He said that it may not be the intent of the applicant, but it could not be controlled in the
future and he would be opposed to this ordinance.
Commissioner Hill said that he sees two points, one being the residential use and the
other being the neighborhood's concerns because the project has not been built in a
way that they are happy with. He said that he does not have the concerns with the
residential use because of the Village being built right around the corner and this is a
good use for a transitional area. He said that he believes that the motion on the table is
the right way to go.
Commissioner Rutherford said that he agreed with Commissioner Hill and there is a
comparable situation at the Ritz property because there is commercial on the one side
of the road. Commissioner Fletcher said that there was no citizen opposition to the Ritz
zoning change. Commissioner Rutherford said that he does like the mixed use and
hopefully they can make sure that the owner of the property takes care of it through the
enforcement of City ordinances. He said that in 3 to 4 years it may be sold and made a
permanent residence.
Commissioner Tyler said that if the property were to sell in the future, the new owner
would probably want to make the entire building commercial and tear out the residential
to make the entire area able to be rented for commercial use. He said that the amount
of rental space would be important to investors. He asked if there was a way to make
sure the residential area could not be expanded from 850 s.f. Barry LeBaron responded
that the proposed ordinance could stipulate the maximum and minimum square
footages. Commissioner Tyler said that he would not need those limits to approve the
ordinance as set forth, but he is only making the recommendation to help move this item
forward. He said that he believes if the property was sold in the future, a smart investor
would get more money from commercial rentals than residential.
Commissioner Hill asked staff if the site plans have the square footages on them and if
they are included as attachments, do they need to add the maximum square footages to
the ordinance. Barry LeBaron responded that if there are areas that may become a
point of contention, he would prefer to see them listed in the language of the ordinance
as the exhibit could be subject to interpretation.
Commissioner Rutherford amended his motion to include the maximum
residential living square footage within the language of the ordinance and the site
plan. Commissioner Hill seconded the amendment. The vote being:

The property at 300 Quail Run is 2 acres in size. The garage would be located on the
north side of the house, approximately 230 feet from the street. The new accessory
building regulations included size and location standards. All requests to exceed the
base standards must be authorized by a Special Use Permit approved by the City
Council. A comparison of the regulations and the proposed building is shown below,
The proposed building meets all the requirements of the regulations except for the size,
The applicant has requested a variance from this requirement, as allowed by the Code.

3. Side Setback 5 feet 20 feet
4, Rear Setback 5 feet 180 feet
5. Max. Height No taller than main building Less than height of main

The accessory building regulations limit the total square footage of all accessory
buildings. basing the maximum on the size of the lot. The maximum square footage of
all accessory buildings for this property is 1,750 square feet. Since both buildings
exceed this requirement. a special use permit is required. If approved. the ordinance
granting the special use permit will allow both the existing and proposed building, but
restrict any future buildings to being approved by another special use permit.

My wife and I would like to build a 2,871 square foot garage/storage building,
which would be used daily for our personal automobiles and our classic auto
collection. We currently do not have a garage for this kind of use. Presently, we
have a barn that was converted into a guest quarters with a one car garage unit.
This 'was an existing building when we purchased our home in 1998. The new
garage will be designed to coordinate with our home and to improve our property.

2. One question has been raised regarding how this ordinance will apply to the
buildings proposed for the Village at Colleyville proje,ct. To avoid a potential problem
with the "big box ordinance" and any future buildings that may locate within the
Village at Colleyville project, specific language has been included in the proposed
ordinance to exempt buildings within the limits of the Village at Colleyville PUD from
the "big box ordinance." You may recall that the Village at Colleyville PUD has its
own site design and building construction criteria.
3. The "outdoor lighting" regulation has been relocated from the section dealing with
"rezoning application requirements" and placed in the latter part of the ordinance
where the actual "site development standards" are found,
4. The table, which contains maximum lot coverage, maximum building height, and
minimum setback requirements, has been expanded to incorporate additional
building size categories. The minimum front, side and rear building set-back
distances have also been increased by incorporating a formula that increases the
set-back distance requirements as the size of the building increases.
5. The reference to the "commercial building design point system" has been deleted as
suggested, To compensate for the removal of this particular building design
regulation, the fa9ade articulation language has been refined with additional criteria
regarding the design of front building facades, For example, one of the comments
from the City Council suggested that sloping roofs and covered walkways should be
an important design feature, This provision bas been included in the building
articulation requirement.
6. The requirement for a second customer entrance when the building is situated on a
corner lot has been deleted.
7. One of the City Council's recommendations was to delete "earthen berms" as an
optional feature within the landscape buffer along public streets. The concern here
was that berms along major streets might pose a potential problem for "airlifting" a
vehicle that has run off the road. However, staff feels that this option should be
retained, since earthen berms have proven popular and acceptable as landscaping
features in many new commercial developments.
8, The regulation for loading dock screening has been completely revised from the
original staff recommendation. Initially, staff recommended a solid 12-foot screening
wall to block the view of a. truck loading dock which faced a public street or a
residential property. At the October 3rd City Council meeting, there was a
suggestion that this screening wall requirement be increased to 14 feet. However,
staff is concerned about the long-term stability of such a tall, and often unsupported,

Ordinance 0-00-1249

structural wall. Another review of the loading dock screening requirements from a
number of cities around the country suggests that a combination solid masonry wall
with a live landscaping screen is the preferred requirement. Staff is recommending
an 8-foot tall solid wall with a 6-foot live landscape screening in front of the wall.
Since most loading docks are sloped and depressed below grade to gain better truck
access, most of the vehicle, but not all of it, is hidden from view.
9. The language regarding outside storage has been revised to specifically prohibit
outside storage areas, After reviewing the original language, which required outside
storage areas to be screened with a solid wall, it appeared that language was
actually prohibiting outside storage by allowing outside storage areas to be within "a
building having no roof." Therefore, there would actually be no outside storage
allowed. Staff revised the language to make this requirement very clear that outside
storage of plant materials or merchandise is prohibited. An additional regulation
prohibits the visibility of merchandise above the solid screening wall.
First Reading and Public Hearing
Backqround
At the September 19th City Council meeting, an ordinance was approved which places a
moratorium on the issuance of permits for any commercial store containing 55,000
square feet or more. The moratorium will expire in 61 days, on or about November 19,
2000. This time frame will allow the City time to complete the process for adopting new
regulations for large commercial stores. Staff has prepared a draft ordinance to
establish regulations regarding large commercial stores, which, if approved by the City
Council, will become effective on or before the date when the moratorium expires. The
draft ordinance attached to this agenda briefing has been prepared by using copies of
similar ordinances from a number of cities around the country and from information on
large commercial stores provided by the American Planning Association.
Large commercial stores, more commonly referred to as "big box retailers," vary greatly
in size, but they typically range from 50,000 square feet of building space to as large as
200,000 square feet in the "supercenter" category. Depending on the population size
and transportation characteristics of a community, the issues associated with
development of a big box retailer often become first noticed when a structure of
approximately 50,000 square feet is proposed. Citizens residing near a proposed large
commercial facility generally perceive a big box retailer as a nuisance to their particular
neighborhood,
Agenda Briefing
Ordinance 0-00-1249
Page 4
Big box retailers usually have several common characteristics; they are large
rectangular single story structures, seldom have any visual architectural appeal and
generally have large concrete parking areas. Big box retailers require very large sites of
about 10-12 acres, or more, Sites of this size are generally only found in industrial
areas of many cities, where it is much easier to accommodate the large parking areas
required to satisfy the needs of a large building footprint. Typically, the siting of a big
box retailer is such that the parking lot is highly visible from the adjacent roadway and
the building is situated to the rear of the parking lot. In addition to the huge size of the
building fa~ade, it is the large concrete parking area that is often cited as one of the
primary objectionable features of the big box retailer. The attached ordinance, if
approved, will amend the Colleyville Land Development Code by inserting a new
section to establish regulations for large commercial stores. The proposed ordinance
contains minimum site criteria intended to mitigate many of the objectionable features of
these big box retailers.
Historically, big box retailers have focused on sites served by Interstate or U. S.
highway routes, as evidenced by the fact that virtually every community surrounding
Colleyville, where these types of major transportation routes exist, has attracted at least
one big box retailer over the past few years. Since Colleyville is primarily a residential
community and is not served by a major Interstate or U. S. highway facility, it has not in
the past become a targeted location for the big box retailer. However, recent economic
development trends indicate that many large corporations are changing their retail
development strategies to place their big box facilities closer to residential
neighborhoods in order to tap new markets,
Due to Colleyville's small population size and the absence of any Interstate or U. S.
Highway transportation routes, it is more likely that "mid-box" retailers rather than
"supercenter" stores would find a suitable location within Colleyville. From a
perspective of proportionality, a "mid-box" concept in Colleyville would probably have
many of the same adverse effects on adjacent properties, as would a superstore in a
larger city.
The attached ordinance has been drafted to affect any commercial store, whether it is a
single store or a combination of stores, which occupies 50,000 square feet or more.
The ordinance will amend the Land Development Code to allow a large commercial
establishment containing 50,000 square feet or more of building footprint the option of
either locating "by right" in the ML-Light Manufacturing District or requesting rezoning to
a Planned Unit Development - Commercial.

The ordinance establishes minimum site criteria regarding parking lot lighting, parking
lot landscaping, landscaping buffers along public rights-of-way and where the
development is adjacent to residential property, as well as establishing criteria for the
exterior appearance of the building. The City of Colleyville adopted building design
criteria in 1996 and the attached ordinance enhances those requirements by specifying
brick or stone as the only acceptable exterior surface material.
The Planning and Zoning Commission considered the proposed ordinance at its
September 25th meeting and recommended approval by a vote of 6 -1 (Commissioner
Hill voting against). Also, there were several items recommended by the Commission
for inclusion in the ordinance. The suggestions included shopping cart storage, security
lighting intensity, varying the building set back according to the size of the building, an
option for alternative exterior surface materials and a few other small items that have
been incorporated into the ordinance.

Subject:
GIS analysis of the set backs of the "Big Box" ordinance
I asked our Geographic Information System (GIS) analyst from Southlake to do a
study to show the impact on commercial property of the following set backs from
residential property:
. 80 foot minimum for the smaller size building i.e. 50,000 sqJt to 75,000 sq.ft.
. 175 foot maximum for the larger size building
. 500 foot buffer and,
. 1,000 foot buffer
The base document used was the City of Collewille Future Land Use 2025 map.
One correction was made to this map as the Office use north of Glade Road and
'Nest of Blue Bonnet Drive has recently been zoned as residential, the analysis
shows that property as residential.
The attached maps show the Land Use 2025 map as a comparison to the above
four buffers.

First Reading and Public Hearing
Backoround
Colleyville has entered into a Tax Increment Finance (TIF) Agreement and Council
approved Ordinance 0-00-1234, a contract between the City of Colleyville and the
Village at Colleyville for public improvements on September 5, 2000, This amendment
would allow for the replacement of the existing 6-inch water line along Pleasant Run
Road with approximately 225 feet of 12-inch water line. The Water Master Plan calls for
a 12-inch main along Pleasant Run Road. This portion of the water main was
overlooked on the original review of the plans and needs to be constructed to enhance
the system. Also, this would improve circulation in the system for the area by
connecting the new 10-inch water line along Colleyville Blvd into the new 12-inch main
along Pleasant Run Road.

SUBJECT:
Authorizing participation in the cause of action
styled the City of Denton, Texas vs. Texas Utilities
Company and Lone Star Gas Company
participating in seeking delinquent franchise fees
Reading and Public Hearing
Backqround
Recently, the cities of Pasadena, Galveston, and Wharton were awarded actual
damages of $4.2 million against Houston Lighting & Power Company for excluding
certain revenues from franchise fee calculations. In June, the City of Denton filed a
lawsuit against TXU after an electric and gas franchise fee audit revealed revenues
were excluded from their calculations. Denton is requesting that other TXU-served
cities join the lawsuit and a steering committee will be formed of plaintiff cities. Per Mike
Bucek of Bucek & Frank L.L.P. (a law firm representing Denton), a franchise audit
conducted for the period of 1987-1999 for a city in east Texas population of
approximately 5,000 revealed underpayments of over $200,000 for that time period.
The Lawton Law firm, also representing Denton, reviewed our electric and gas franchise
ordinances and stated they are consistent with other cities participating in the lawsuit
(letter of September 11, 2000). Staff is proposing that Colleyville join the lawsuit and
the steering committee (see attached resolution).

Financial Impact
Colleyville's cost to join the lawsuit would be $6,362 ($3.181 due by October 31, 2000
and $3,181 due at a later date) for legal fees and expert witnesses. This cost is based
upon our 1990 census population of 12,724 times $.50 and funding is available in
account 001-16-6216 (legal fees).

Mayors and City Managers of Cities Served by TXU
RE: Legal action against TXU for delinquent electric and gas franchise
fees
On March 30, 2000 a Houston jury awarded the cities of Pasadena,
Galveston and Wharton actual damages of $4.2 million against Houston
Lighting & Power Company (HL&P) for excluding revenues from calculations
used to derive the franchise fees owed such cities for the rental and use of their
public streets, easements and public properties, On April 4. 2000 the jury
found that HL&P had acted with malice by intentionally underpaying these cities
for decades and awarded each city $1 0,000,000. HL&P's attorney stated in an
article entitled HL&P Hit Hard in Three Cities' Franchise-Free Suit of the April
10, 2000 edition of the Texas Lawyer (Copy attached) ,that "What HL&P has
done, its done for 43 years. It follows industry practice."
On August 24, 1999, the City of Denton retained Diversified Utility
Consultants, Inc. to perform a review of TXU-Electric's franchise calculations
and TXU-Lone Star Gas's franchise calculations. DUCl's summary confirm
their conclusions that the practice of the electric and gas industry is to
miscalculate the franchise fees paid to cities.
DUCI estimates that TXU-Electric owes the City of Denton delinquent
fees of over $256,000 for the years 1987 - 1998.1 TXU-Lone Star Gas owes
the City delinquent fees of over $861,000 for the years 1982 - 1998,
1 Although this figure is not a significant amount. it is when you consider that less than 300 of Denton's
28.000 electric customers are on the TXU system. The remaining customers purchase electricity from Denton
Municipal Utilities or CoServ Electric.

On June 7 2000 Strasburger & Price, L.LP. and Bucek & Frank, L.L.P.
filed suit against'TXU on behalf of the City of Denton in the 393rd District Court
in Denton County. The Court issued a TRO restraining TXU from ~removing,
altering and/or destroying records relating to payments of franchise fees to
municipalities in the State of Texas and the City of Denton from January
1982 to present.
The City of Denton has asked us to seek out other cities in the TXU
service area to join in this lawsuit while an Agreed Temporary Injunction is in
place that protects records of all Texas cities which TXU serves.
As we have done in the prior utility cases, your City can join this suit by
passing an ordinance or resolution (similar to the one attached) by October 20,
2000 by which your City agrees to contribute $.25 by October 31,2000 for each
resident, based on the 1990 U.S. Census and another $.25 if later assessed
by the "Steering Committee of Cities Participating in the TXU Franchise
Litigation, "toward underwriting the cost of a multiple party Plaintiffs' suit. The
fee can be prorated if your city has electric ~nd/or gas utilities provided by
entities other than TXU, however, the minimum contribution is $1,000 per
assessment. The size of the Steering Committee will be ultimately determined
by the number of cities participating, If 29 or less cities participate in the
litigation there will be a 3-member committee. If 30 or more cities participate
there will be a 5-member committee. Denton has agreed to serve as Treasurer
for the collection of the underwriting fees, and therefore Denton will have one
representative on the Steering Committee and the other members will be
elected by the participating cities.
The overall strategy and trial will be directed by Strasburger & Price,
L. L. P. with the Steering Committee serving as representatives of the cities
regarding coordination of effort and flow of information, retention of experts,
consideration of settlement offers and consultation with us as needed relating
to media issues. We plan to hold at least two meetings before October 13,
2000 for cities interested in joining this lawsuit. At the meetings, DUCI and our
attorneys will be available to address questions that the city officials may have

and provide available information obtained through the DUCI audit. In
particular, we will discuss the types of revenue accounts that TXU has failed
to include in gross receipts/revenues calculations.
A reasonable determination of the amount of delinquent fees owed each
city will not be possible until TXU produces all of the requested records. Also
in some franchises, certain revenue accounts are specifically removed from
gross receipts/revenues so DUCI will have to review each city's franchise to
determine the amount of delinquent franchise fees owed such city.
Should you have any questions, please contact me at the address
indicated above, by phone at 214-651-4300 or by fax at 214-651-4330 or
contact Mike Bucek by letter at Bucek & Frank, L.L.P. at 2250 State Hwy. 114
West, Suite 200, Grapevine, Texas 76051 , by phone at 817-949-2161 or by fax
at 817-906-2043,
If you would like copies of the petition and the orders entered in the
Denton case, please contact us.

TO:
On August 18, 2000 our firm in cooperation with Strasburger & Price, L.L.P. forwarded
to you a packet of information on behalf of the City of Denton regarding the formation of
the above Steering Committee. We have received a number of calls from City Attorneys
representing cities both larger and smaller than the City of Denton inquiring as to the
amount of delinquent franchise fees their cities may be owed by TXU. The delinquent
fees vary from city to city based on the language of each city's specific franchise. For
instance, the percentage of gross receipts a city receives changes from city to city and
some franchises have exclusions of certain revenue accotUlts from gross receipts. We
asked Dan Lawton of Diversified Utility Consultants, Inc. (DUCI) to prepare some
preliminary estimates of delinquent franchise fees for a few cities of varying populations.
We suggested he find a city with only a TXU-Electric franchise, another with only a
TXU-Lone Star Gas franchise and a couple of cities where electric and gas service is
provided by only TXU,
Attached is a copy of the report that DUCI prepared for my firm and Strasburger and
Price, L.L.P. on behalf of the City of Denton. Should you have any questions please give
me a call or David LaBree at 214.651.4752.

FACT SHEET
REGARDING UNDERPAYMENT OF FRANCHISE FEES
CITY OF DENTON VS. TXU
. A franchise fee is a rental fee that a city has the right to charge a utility company for
the rental and use of city rights-of-way, easemenUl and public groW1ds for the
placement of pipelines, poles and utility ca.bles. TXU is using public property for
private gain.
. The public right of way that TXU uses to provide gas & electrical service belongs to
each city and its residents. Why shouldn't TXU pay reasonable value for the use of
this property?
. In Texas, utility companies generally have agreed to pay cities a franchise fee of2%
to 4% of the total collected monies that the company realizes from the sale and rental
of its services.
. Texas law states clearly that gross receipts means the "whole; entire; total; without
deduction." In a franchise fee arrangement, "gross receipts" and "gross revenues" are
considered the same, Utility companies must report ALL revenues collected then pay
a 2% to 4% franchise fee of these revenues.
Sep 21 00 04:3010
Bucek and F~ank LLP
817 S06 2043
F.S
Fact sheet! Daee two of four
. Research for the Denton case concludes that it is common practice of the electric and
gas industry to miscalculate the franchise fees paid to cities.
. The City of Denton lawsuit alleges that TXU Electric and TXU Gas intentionally
miscalculated and excluded a variety of revenues received for services sold or rented.
This intentional miscalculation resulted in years of underpayments in franchise fees to
the city,
. TXU has refused to allow a complete audit of their records. They have refused to
allow representatives of the city of Denton access to the requested records that
Denton has tried to obtain in good taith.
. One of TXU's questionable tactics used in Denton and other Texas cities is to pass-
through to residents a franchise fee, then not deposit such fees collected into a
separate account for the benefit of the city. In other words, TXU charged Denton
residents for its use of city roads for utility services, but it cannot prove that all of the
fees collected from residents was remitted to the city for the rental of the right-of-
way.

Fact sheet/Dave three of four
. So far, financial auditing experts have calculated an underpayment in franchise rees
due to the city of Denton in excess of $1.17 million. This is rightfully the city' S
money and could have been used for:
. The purchase of 58 new police patrol cars
. Thousands of library books and reference materials
. Technology advancements/computers for the city
. City park beautification projects/maintenance
. Major street improvements
. The TXU/Denton case parallels similarities of a recent case involving three Houston-
area cities (\\'hanon, Galveston, Pasadena) who sued Houston Lighting & Power Co.
(HL&P). A Houston jury awarded the three cities $10 million each in punitive
damages and found that HL&P acted with malice by intentionally underpaying these
cities, The total damages were $33.4 million. This is one of the first cases to address
punitive damages against a utility for failure to pay franchise fees.
. The Houston case involved the electric utility only, Denton's case involves electric
and gas, Gas issues are similar in part, but involve other types of charges that were
also excluded from TXU's calculation of "gr055 receipts,"

Fact sheet/Dare four offour
. TXU has maintained that the Houston jury was in error when it found tha~ certain
revenue accounts were excluded from the "gross receipts" calculation. TXl' also
argues that its franchises are different from HL&P's when such differences are
insignificant.
. ThU cannot escape State Law on the issue of sales taxes, In the same service area,
TXU has a contract with another city that specifically excludes sales taxes from
"gross receipts." Denton's agreement does not speak to sales ta.xes. State Law is
clear on this contracmal issue. If one agreement excludes sales tax and the other is
silent on the issue, then the legal inference is that sales taxes should have been
included in the franchise that did not exclude sales tax (Denton's case). TXU chose
not to do so.
. The franchises are drafted by TXU and if TXU does not want to include sales taxes
in gross receipts, TXU should specifically exclude them.
. TXU has protited at the public's expense, Texas dollars should not be allowed to be
invested in places such as Kansas, Missouri, Iowa, Mexico City, continental Europe,
the United Kingdom and Australia at the expense of Texas cities.

the City of Denton, Texas
SUBJECT: Issues relating to the formation of the Steering Committee and the transfer
of the coordination of the litigation effort from the City of Denton to the
Steering Committee Officers
DATE: Septembcr 19,2000
David LaBree and I have received inquiries from representatives from in excess of sixty
(60) cities interested in joining the "Steering Committee of Cities Participating in the
TXU Franchise Litigation" (Steering Committee). Several administrative or procedural
questions have been raised by City Representatives that are not answered in the original
packet of information we sent to Mayors and City Managers of Cities served by TXU 011
August 18th or in our notice of meetings letter dated August 29th. We felt it would be
appropriate to memorialize in writing our oral answers to these questions before the
September 20th and 29th meetings that have been scheduled to respond to audit and legal
issues concerning the delinquent franchise fees owed by TXU. They are as follows:
1. The City of Denton will adopt an appropriate resolutlOrVordinance prior to October
ISth to confinn it will (a) serve as Treasurer of the Steering Committee and (b) remit the
applicable assessment to the Steering Committee by October 31 st.
2. On November 151 the Steering Committee assumes the responsibility for paying the
future legal, consulting and court fees that accrue in prosecuting the delinquent franchise
fee case against TXU presently pending in Denton County,
3. The City of Denton assumes the responsibility for all legal, consulting and court fees
that accrued prior to November 15t,
4. The Steering Committee will seek a judgment or settlement that reimburses (a) every
city, that remains in this litigation to its conclusion, the assessment fees it has paid and
(b) the City of Denton for the legal, consulting and courl fees it has paid since the
retention of Strasburger & Price, L.L.P. and Bucek & Frank, L.L.P. on June 6, 2000.

5. The Officers elected by the Steering Committee or a s'.lbcommittee a?poi:1ted by sl4ch
Officers will audit the legal, consulting and court fees a.'1G fo:\\'ard tne appropria~e
invoices to the Treasurer for payment.
6. No city's assessments shall exceed 10% of the amou::t of delinque::t franchise fees
that the a~dit ref1ects such City is owed by TXU.
7, Each city shall be entitled to cast 2 votes for the officers of the Steering Commi:tee if
only two officers other than the Treasurer stand for election and 4 votes i: the size 0 f the
Steering Committee warrants four officers other than the Treasurer. The canvass of:he
votes shall result in 50% of the officers other than the Treasurer representing cities of
under 30,000 population and 50% ofthc officers other tha.'1 the Treasurer representing
cities of 30,000 or more. The cities may cast all their votes for themselves or for cities in
either category mentioned above.
8. Should Steering Committee funds collected by the two assessments be depleted, the
payment of all subsequent assessments will be on a voluntary basis and the failure 0: a
city to make a voluntary contribution will not result in the removal of such city from the
lawsuit.
9, .<\11Y city can remove itself from the litigation at any time without any liability to the
Steering Committee for future assessments, but no refunds will be made by the Steering
Committee of funds previously contributed by such city or subsequently recovered by
judgment or settlement.
10, The assessment fee shall be reduced by 50% if a City is served by only TXU-Electric
or TXU-Lone Star Gas. Should a city have either 2 natural gas companies and 1 electric
company, or vice versa, the applicable 50% portion of the assessment applicable to the
two competing entities (one of which is TXU), will be adjusted by multiplying such
portion of the assessment by a fraction, the nwnerator of which is the total TXU-Lone
Star Gas (or electric. if applicable) customers in the corporate limits as of January 1, 1999
and the denominator of which is the total of all natural gas (or electric, if applicable)
customers, including TXU-Lone Star Gas's customers, in the corporate limits as of
January 1, 1999.
11. Assessment checks are to be written to the order of the "City of Denton, Texas,
Treasurer of Steering Committee".
We look fOl"\\lard to meeting you at either our September 20th or September 29th meeting
to discuss the legal and auditing issues in this case.

Assistant City Manager
City of Colleyville
P.O. Box 185
Colleyville, Texas 76034
Dear Ms. McWethy:
The purpose of this letter is to formalize my interest in the position of City Secretary with
the City of Colleyville. I believe my studies and current and past experience is an
excellent match for the duties and responsibilities of this position.
I serve as primary back-up support, in the absence of the City Secretary, including
providing staff support for City Council meetings. During the past two elections, I have
assisted the City Secretary with the election administration. I am currently enrolled in the
Texas Municipal Clerks Certification program. The required course work and seminars
have provided special knowledge and training in the election process, records
management, and budget preparation and administration. I have attended workshops that
enhanced my understanding of the Public Information Act and the unique requirements of
city government.
My present position in the Parks and Recreation Department has provided many
opportunities to interact with elected officials, department heads and the general public.
As secretary to the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board, I prepare and proofread
agendas and briefings for the Board packets and take minutes during the Board meetings.
These experiences broadened my understanding of the needs of our citizens and provided
me with insight and skills for meeting those needs. I have received commendations from
my superiors, co-workers and citizens for my dedication and professionalism.
I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how my experience and skills can benefit the
City of Colleyville. Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
cyn~~/~

Monthly Financial Report - September 2000
General Fund
Current year tax collections finished the year at 98.88% of the roll. Sales tax revenue
was down by 14.32% ($29,102) as compared to August 1999. The September sales
tax payment was up almost $11,000 (9.78% increase). The October payment will be
accrued per accounting rules, but we have not received it as of this date. Residential
permits are down by three as compared to the month of September 1999 (9 issued in
September 2000), but they remain up by fifty-two for the year. Municipal Court
revenues are up due to greater citations issued in prior months of the fiscal year and
greater efforts in warrant collections. The average amount expended by the
departments at the end of September is 94.4%
Utilitv Fund
Water sales and usage are higher than the prior year due to the heat and drought
conditions we experienced last fall, early winter, and this summer. Building related
installations are up due to greater activity. Interest income is now up due to timing of
maturities. The average amount expended by the Utility Fund at the end of September
is 99.9% but there may be a final September settle-up bill from TRA due to high water

1. PUBLIC HEARING - A Zoning Change requested by David Bagwell, from AG to PUD-R
(planned unit development-residential on 54.93 acres located on a portion of Bluebonnet Hills
on Hall Johnson Road - Broughton. Case Z-00-064
Tom Niederauer presented the case to the Commission. Commissioner Edwards asked what
the percentage of open space was. Staff responded that it was 20%. Mr. Niederauer said that
the open space is designed differently than staff normally sees. He said that there are strips of
open space that allows viewing from the Highland Meadows Addition. He said that open space
is normally used for detention and this plan does have some of that. He said that the open space
is disbursed throughout the subdivision.

Commissioner Gasper asked what the fire department has said regarding the narrow streets. Mr.
Niederauer responded that they are opposed. He explained the Development Review Committee
procedures and said that they support the existing regulations for development and in most cases
do not support anything that varies from the ordinances. He said that on that basis these streets
do not meet the City standards.
Barry LeBaron said that this property had been considered for an R20 zoning change request and
the cemetery said that this property is surplus to their needs and they have advertised it for sale.
He said that Mr. Bagwell initially asked for R20 and Highland Meadows directly to the east is also
zoned R20. At the public hearing Mr. Bagwell said that he would like a subdivision like Highland
Meadows, but there were a number of citizens from Highland Meadows who said that they thought
this property would remain open forever. He said that there was concerns about where the
property abuts the Highland Meadows Addition and the R20 was denied, but their was interest
that in the proposal being resubmitted as a PUD to offer the opportunity to customize the request
to mitigate some of the concerns. Mr. LeBaron said that one of the concerns was the view from
Highland Meadows and Mr. Bagwell has added a 30' greenbelt where the property abuts Highland
Meadows that connects to the greenbelts that go through the subdivision. He said that Mr.
Bagwell has lined up the streets and greenbelt areas to provide some sort of vista down through
portions of this development. He said that Mr. Bagwell is required to provide 20% open space that
it can either be private or public and in this case it is private.
Commissioner Edwards asked if one of staff's objections was because of the private gates and
traffic patterns. Mr. LeBaron responded that initially the subdivision was proposed with 83 lots
with an entrance on Hall Johnson and an entrance to the north. He said that staff has received
a request from a number of citizens in the Ross Downs area requesting to close Wyatt Drive, and
while it is not directly related to the zoning change request, it does have an impact. He said that
Mr. Bagwell has said that he will probably do the subdivision as a gated subdivision and the north
access would be closed off and only used as an emergency access. He said that staff is
concerned that 83 lots is a large number to use basically one entrance and staff would like to see
a different entrance design. With the subdivision being located on a major collector street, it
creates more concern. Commissioner Edwards asked if the entrance is offset far enough from
the streets on the south side of Hall Johnson Road. Staff responded that it was.
Mr. LeBaron told the Commission that this request does not include any request for future fire
station property. He said that initially, Mr. Bagwell was going to try to find a location off site and
try to negotiate some kind of exchange so that the current fire station site would go away and
ultimately become a part of the development. Staff recommended that the fire station be taken
out of the equation. Mr. LeBaron said that the current station property is % of an acre and they
are looking for approximately 3 acres.
Commissioner Hocutt asked what the response time by the fire department would be if the Hall
Johnson entrance was blocked and they had to drive around to the emergency entrance to the
north. Fire Chief Johnson said that the response time would be significantly increased.

Commissioner Hill asked about the lengthy development standards that were submitted by the
developer and how they matched up with the current city code. Mr. LeBaron said that they would
address the development standards after the public hearing.
Commissioner Hocutt asked if there were any significant trees or natural ponds or anything to be
disturbed currently existing on the property. Mr. LeBaron said that the property is significantly
open, but there are a number of trees in the northern section that will need to be retained.
Commissioner Hocutt asked for a tree survey in order to retain them to add to the natural beauty
of the addition.
Commissioner Wall asked about the road that comes in off Highway 26. He said that he drove
on Sanders Lane and asked if there would be any impact to the properties on Sanders by this
subdivision. Mr. LeBaron said that Sanders Lane does not currently go through, but the Master
Plan indicates that it will loop around and connect to Wyatt Drive and then Industrial.
Commissioner Edwards said there have been plans to straighten out the intersection of Sanders
and Tinker Road.
Commissioner Hollis asked if this was the appropriate place to consider and put in place the
developer's standards that refer to customary engineering standards. Mr. LeBaron said that they
have been included as per the developer's request as a part of the ordinances in the past. He
said that staff is opposed to those kinds of developments because the standards are in the Lane'
Development Code that was adopted earlier in the year. He said that the developer's standardL
should not be a part of the land use zoning ordinance and would recommend against using them.
Commissioner Hollis asked if they approve the ordinance with the development standards, would
they be granting a waiver from the City's land development standards. Mr. LeBaron said that
according to the zoning ordinance, the PUD can establish the terms and conditions.
Commissioner Hollis asked if the property would be final platted at a later date and if the plat
would be the more appropriate instrument to incorporate the engineering standards. Mr. LeBaron
said that the terms and conditions with the zoning change request are really plat development and
infrastructure issues that should be addressed at time of platting. He said that the applicant would
like to lock them in now in order to make sure that the City would not change the standards next
month.
Commissioner Gasper asked what the drainage issues are associated with this property. Mr.
LeBaron responded that the developer is required to keep the runoff on this property like it is
today. He said that he is proposing to incorporate a number of detention sites throughout the
property rather than one large detention site. He would use the open areas as detention ponds.
Commissioner Gasper said that it seems in the development standards that the applicant does
not want to provide any off site drainage structures. She said that it seems he anticipates there
will be significant run off into the drainage system. Mr. LeBaron said that he is not sure the
applicant can determine the amount of detention that is needed or if improvements are needed.
He said that the language in the standards addresses it suggest that if there is a later surprise
according the standards, the developer would not be responsible for it. Commissioner Gasper
asked if that was the normal practice because she thought that developers were supposed to
absorb the cost for development of property and not pass it along to others. Mr. LeBaron said that

she was correct.
Chairman Hart opened the public hearing. Those present wishing to speak were:
David Bagwell, 8222 Douglas Ave., Dallas, Texas, introduced his staff and said that they have a
small business development for the last 10 years have concentrated on Colleyville and it is his
business strategy to develop high end developments. He said that they have learned quite a bit
about what the demand is for that kind of product and how to go about developing it. He said that
there are certain things about the way they develop that differentiates them from a number of
other developers. He said that it is their business strategy to reach for as high of end product as
they can house wise in the market place. He said that he talked to someone that was
complimentary about the consistency of their architecture and landscaping in Leyton Grove. He
said that one of the things that they do is develop a set of standards that they use as a kind of rule
book to get everyone up to a certain level of attractiveness. He said that if the Commission
understands where they are coming from they will be able to comprehend where they want to go.
He said that some of their developments have been R20 like Ashmore and Leyton Grove. He
said that because the property on the east side of the cemetery was zoned R20, it seemed
reasonable to him that they should ask for R20 zoning. He said that there was opposition that
suggested that a PUD might be in order and the principal element for a PUD is that there is open
space to be used to ease some of the concerns by the residents who opposed the R20.
Mr. Bagwell said that they take the position that the property will be sold by the cemetery and be
developed. He said that if it is to be sold, it would be used for residential and it seems that it
would be used for a product like they mentioned. He said that because they are experienced in
the community and use high standards, they are the best to of the prospects to develop the
property. He said that if things cannot be worked out with the community, there will be others to
develop the property. He said that besides pointing out the quality product they develop, he
wanted the Commission to know that none of this is personal to them. He said that he
understands that it is personal to people in the neighborhood and all he is here to do is advocate
some ideas. He said that if they are worthy ideas they will be approved and if not the Commission
will turn to someone else to develop the property. He said that he would like to discuss the ideas
that they are recommending for the project.
Mr. Bagwell discussed the topography of the land. He said that basically the property falls away
to the west and they incorporated that into the land plan. He said that they put the access road
at the low point of the property. He said that the neighbors would have an interesting view at
anyplace along the development. He said that they think that the land plan works with the natural
topography of the property and the use of the green space creates a very beautiful property. He
said that in response to the objections by the neighbors to the east, they wanted some sort of
buffer and he was never able to get any sense as to what size of buffer that would be. He said
that he had to make some business sense of the property and have suggested a 30' buffer and
everyone that lives to the east will have attractive views off to the west. He said that he
understands that it will not be same as they have today, but if this property is to be developed,
they will still have very attractive views off to the west. He said that if the property that was once
vacant is developed, the developer will never make everybody happy. He said that he cannot

Minutes - September 25, 2000

keep the property open, but can create something that in lieu of being open, will be attractive and
he feels that the substantial amount of open space will benefit the people across the street or
passing by. He said that he is a substantial planter of trees and the property will be reforested.
Mr. Bagwell said that he borrowed techniques for development from the River Oaks addition in
Houston where the looping street technique has been used very successfully. He said that there
are other developments in the country that use the same approach and one of them is the
Greenway Parks development in Dallas where the green belts in back yards have been used. He
said that as they combine the two techniques, it will make for a very novel and attractive
subdivision. He pointed out the views from various locations around the subdivision. He said that
one of the reasons that the community as a whole would find the project attractive is what it does
for the community. He said that not only in terms of high quality of development, but the
contribution that it makes for tax revenue and shoppers for the retail that the community is
interested in. He said that his company evaluated some of the less expensive homes in Oakbrook
Hills from a tax standpoint. He said that considering the ad velorum tax and a projection of sales
tax that is derived from Oakbrook Hills, this Broughton looks like it will produce approximately
$1,000,003 in revenue to the community per annum. He said that the property is currently
producing $0.00 in tax revenue.
He reviewed the special conditions. He said that of the four PUD's each one has some special
condition that is contrary to the published standards for the community. He said that Oakbroor
Hills has 40' wide rights-of-way instead of 50' wide. He said that some of the streets in Westmon.
and Glenwood will be 40' rights-of-way. He said that sometimes staff is opposed to changes and
sometimes not, but it seems that they are always opposed to their changes. He said that in May
of this year, two of the things that they have proposed have been approved for Remington Park
and staff did not object to it. 50' rights-of-way for cul-de-sacs and 15' side yards on lots that side
on side streets have been approved on Remington Park. Mr. Bagwell said that they agree to
disagree with the Fire Chief on 50' right-of-way for cul-de-sacs. He said that he has information
that is a survey of cul-de-sac widths in the Dallas/Fort Worth area and Colleyville is the only city
that requires a wider stem to the cul-de-sac. He said that every subdivision that they have
developed has only had 50' rights-of-way on the stems to the cul-de-sacs. Westmont, Ashmore,
Oakbrook Hills, and Glenwood have them as well as Remington Park and others throughout the
Dallas/Fort Worth area. He said that they are not unique in proposing changes to the City
development standards.
Mr. Bagwell said that staff proposed changes to the City Council for changes to the development
standards for thickness of streets in subdivisions. He said that for every street that is in a
residential area is 5 inches thick concrete with number 3 rebar and 18 inches on center and 3,000
psi concrete in it. He said that staff proposed to Council that it should be 6 inches thick concrete
and they supported that aspect of change to the ordinance. He said that they are proposing the
equivalent in the Broughton development by using 5 inches thick concrete with 3,600 psi. He said
that scientists would testify that they are the same. He said that what he is asking for is less
expensive and they would spend the difference in amenities for the development. He recapped
the reasons they want to develop the property in the manner they are proposing. He said that he
hoped that when the Commission makes a recommendation to the Council they would consider

Minutes - September 25. 2000

the different elements and if there are ways he could modify the plan to make it more attractive,
he would be very interested in hearing them.
Commissioner Hart asked if Mr. Bagwell had preservation in mind for the trees at north end of the
property. Mr. Bagwell said that if the trees are in the rights-of-way, they will do whatever they can
to avoid cutting them down. He said that if they are in a front yard or out of the building plan, his
standards deal with how to preserve them. He said that he does not allow grass to be put under
native trees because what kills them most of the time is over watering them. He said that they
have worked with arborists to develop the standards and they let the native trees alone as far as
irrigating them. Mr. Bagwell said that every subdivision needs a plan to preserve trees and add
trees and in their Westmont Addition they are planting over 2,000 trees of their own volition. They
are required by the wetland provision to plant 800 but they are planting 1,2000 additional trees.
Kirk Roger, 2001 Reynolds Drive, around the corner of Reynolds and Wyatt Drives at the north
end of the property. Mr. Rogers said that he was really impressed that Mr. Bagwell could develop
this plan since he told the Board on two other occasions that it was not economically feasible to
do a PUD and yet he has found 20% green areas. He eluded that anyone who could do a PUD
is a less than quality developer. He has said that there are no guarantees that the plan will end
up like presented and he hopes it doesn't because he is at the north end of the development. Mr.
Roger said that he is concerned about the City of Colleyville bending over backwards for Mr.
Bagwell. He said that the fact that he was going to get turned down for his R20 request, that they
were willing to negotiations with Bluebonnet Hills Cemetery to lower the price to allow him to do
a PUD-R, and now that he has a PUD they didn't have to do that. He said that he is concerned
that there are only 5 active commercial cemeteries in Tarrant County and the closest one is in Fort
Worth. He said that with so much growth in the Mid Cities and with more people dying, it won't
be long before Bluebonnet will be trying to condemn land to take in more cemetery property. He
said that he called Bluebonnet hills five years ago to see what their plans are behind his house
and was told that they would probably there in about 75 years. He said that with this property
being sold, they may now run out of land in 15 to 20 years. Mr. Roger said that Bluebonnet Hills
came to him and yet the Fire Chief who has been trying to buy land didn't know about the sale of
the land by Bluebonnet Hills. He said that this is cemetery property and institutional land and the
City has never planned on getting any tax money from this land and they have paid extra for their
properties. He said that he added a balcony to his game room, tore down an 8' privacy fence and
put in a 5' picket fence so that they could enjoy the view and now they will have a house sitting
in his back yard. Mr. Roger said that he did not realize that Mr. Bagwell proposed a fence at the
north end of the property to prevent traffic from passing through their neighborhood and he does
appreciate that. He said that if there isn't a gate, everyone in his development will cut through Mr.
Bagwell's development to Hall Johnson Road. He said that currently to get to Hall Johnson is a
very lengthy trip. He asked the Commission to turn the request down.
Ruth Heidel, 1712 Gatehouse Court, called the Commissioners' attention to the correspondence
and petitions that represents owners of over 30% of the property within the 200' of the zoning
request. She said that 29 petitioners have signed twice stating opposition to the plan for
residential use. She displayed an overhead showing the area of opposition. She said that the
owners of the surrounding property represent four distinct neighborhoods: Stone Crest Estates,
Planning & Zoning Commission
Minutes - September 25, 2000
Page 8 of 25 - Approved on 10/09/00.
Montclair Parc, Highland Meadows, Ross Downs, and 11 individual property owners. She said
that there is no one single person who could represent this entire group and yet the developer has
contacted the president of one homeowners' association to try to negotiate features of his
proposed development to circumvent opposition at the hearing. She said that the president does
not own property adjacent to the land and had not been in touch with any of the residents who do.
Ms. Heidel said that the residents in Ross Downs consider the original plan that they showed
without a gate posed such a threat to their children's safety that they have requested that Wyatt
Drive be closed, and she supports that request. She said that all of the traffic from the addition
will be forced onto Hall Johnson Road through an uncontrolled intersection. She said that one
of the former Commissioners noted that there were many challenges to developing the property
and one of them being the fire station at the entryway. She said that there will be emergency
vehicles competing for road access along with cars from 83 lots all behind her house. She said
that she and her neighbors are greatly affected because they have to enter on Hall Johnson in
the area and Mr. Bagwell did not try to contact them for input. She said that at the last hearing,
Commissioner Hill commented that the property could be developed as residential in the AG
district and have 3 acre lots. She said he said that some kind of buffer and park would make the
development less dense and Mr. Bagwell responded that he cannot do the kind of developments
he does and include buffers and open space. She said that apparently that is so because he has
provided very little buffers and open space for the existing homes. She said that some of the
homes have no buffers and some only have a shallow road to look across and some have cul-de-
sacs abutting their back fences. She said that Mr. Lucas at the north end of the property will havp
headlights shining into his living room and bedroom windows. Ms. Heidel said that the buffers anL
open space are being provided in the new development among the new structures yet to be built
while existing homes lose their backyard privacy. She said that a portion of the cemetery property
is paying taxes and provides $365,900 taxes per year and a portion provides $568,395 per year
totaling $934,395 to the tax rolls just by sitting vacant. She encouraged that Commissioners to
take a long hard look as to what this single zoning change will mean to Colleyville. She said that
she came here for some peace, quiet, and privacy and thought that living near a cemetery was
a perfect solution and if the property is developed it will destroy the reason many people chose
this location to call"home". She asked the Commission to deny the request.
Rich Munson, 1905 Hall Johnson Road, passed out photographs to the Commission. He said that
the subdivision needs to connect to the north and to the west to provide a direct connection to
Highway 26. He said that he knows that it is a burden to some residents who live in the area, but
we are a community and street networks are very important, not a series of cloistered
subdivisions. He thinks that it is a good idea to provide access for Ross Downs residents to have
access to Hall Johnson and to the Community Center and access to the north to go to Dallas or
Trophy Club. He said that the applicant wants a gated subdivision and he is opposed because
of the social implications they provide. He said they are bad for the community and bad for the
social structure and they serve to isolate people. Mr. Munson said that the perimeter street fe4es
should apply to this subdivision to reimburse the City for some of the costs to reconstruct Hall
Johnson Road. He said that in the wet Spring of 1990 the soil became saturated and the
drainage structures couldn't either. He said that the water came down at such a rate to cover Hal'
Johnson Road and the drainage structure clogged and the water had no place to go and f100dea
his property. He said that he had 3" of water in the garage. He said that he currently has a brick

wall with several openings and if the water ever comes across the road it will be trapped in his
property. He said that he does not want a road dumping into his property and there needs to be
retention ponds not detention ponds that hold the capacity to prevent him and others in the area
from being flooded. There are serious drainage problems that need to be addressed. Mr.
Munson said that the property needs to remain a cemetery and is pleased to hear the amount of
tax revenues the cemetery is generating. He said that if the property were not built on, the city
would not have the cost of infrastructure maintenance, the police and everything else associated
with it. He asked the Commission to deny the request.
Dave Baucum, 6108 Highland Hills Drive, displayed panoramic photos to show the view behind
his home and the trees in the area. He had a plat showing the location of an aqueduct that is on
his and four other properties. Mr. Baucum said that nine years ago he moved to the most
beautiful home he could have ever wished to live in with a wonderful neighborhood with a
spectacular view, peace and tranquility. He said that the only reason they are here for this
meeting is because of greed. He said that the cemetery corporation has overextended, overbuilt,
and got into hot water with the SEC, the main holding company and now they need cash. He said
that they say everyone is living longer and business is slow, yet when they were expanding they
must not have looked at the statistics. He said that now the citizens of the community are having
to pay for the cemetery's problems. Mr. Baucum said that if the project goes through, he wants
to make sure that they continue to have drainage on their property and if the aqua duct is not
needed, he wants his 25' of land back. He said that there is a potential for destruction of wildlife
with the development of property and the animals will relocated into the community and this could
be dangerous to the children in the neighborhoods. He said that Colleyville is only 12 square
miles in area and he asked if we have to have concrete on every square foot of it. He said that
we need to protect the reason people moved here in the first place - the tranquility and the rural
atmosphere of the city that makes Colleyville so unique.
Pete Fedynich, 5512 Coventry Court, said that he lives across the street and is against the
building in the cemetery. He said that he does not know how he will get out of his entry way if the
subdivision is built. He said that it tough enough now in the mornings and evenings without
additional traffic coming out straight across the street. He said that he was in favor of widening
Hall Johnson Road because it would alleviate the traffic coming through, but how will it be handled
later on. He said that with so much development in the area he has had a raccoon and a possum
taken out of his attic and has captured 5 possums and a skunk in his backyard that he let go in
the wildlife area. He said that with more digging there will be more wildlife in the neighborhoods.
He said that he is against the rezoning because it will bring more traffic than anticipated for the
widening of Hall Johnson.
Hope Alcorta, 1708 Gatehouse Court, Stone Crest Estate, said that she is concerned about the
widening of Hall Johnson Road and all of the traffic that it is going to create with a new
subdivision. She said that she is concerned for the schools. She said that her son is in the first
grade and the three first grade classes are almost up to full capacity. She said that with two other
new subdivisions being built, she is not sure how the City or the School District will handle it.

Pete Fedynich, 5512 Coventry Court, said that when the Fire Chief was asked if the streets will
be wide enough, he responded that they wouldn't. He said that the community should not go back
to what was ten years ago and say that we did it before, why can't we do it again. He said that
time means progress and progress means that you don't do things like you did before, as we don't
ride horse now, we ride cars. He said that the developer should not be granted variances for
regulations put in a year ago and that alone should keep the builder out of specific areas.
Rich Munson, 1905 Hall Johnson Road, said that he moved to the area in 1977 and there has
been some talk as to where to move the fire station. He said that the piece of property next to the
utility center was purchase for the fire station and that is where the fire station needs to go. He
said that the site was desirable because it is at the top of a hill and the people don't have to worry
about accelerating up a hill and they have better site lines to get onto the road. He said that the
fire station needs to go at that location not opposite Stone Crest.
Cindy Wilson, 2406 Twelve Oaks Lane, the president of the homeowners' association for Ross
Down. She said that they have 350 homes and have been working actively with the police
department with traffic going through Ross Downs during rush hours and school times. She said
that they discussed speed bumps, stop signs, as people have jumped curbs and nearly hit homes.
She said that when she heard about Wyatt Drive being widened, she would want assurance that
there would not be any access onto Reynolds. She said that she previously lived in Houston and
does not want any standards to be changed for a developer. Ms. Wilson said that she has
concerns about the drainage. She said that she loves living in the City of Colleyville because the~
listen to the citizens. She said that the widening of Pool Road has been successful because they
have three schools eventually lead onto Pool Road and Highway 26 is a nightmare in the morning
because of Grapevine High School traffic. She said that she would suspect that the one entrance
and exit to the proposed subdivision would be a scary thing especially for the emergency vehicles.
She said that the reason they have been told that they couldn't have speed bumps in Ross Downs
is because of the necessary access required by emergency vehicles through their subdivision.
She said that the residents who live against the cemetery are assured that nothing will every
develop behind them and it will be very quiet and she can imagine that this has been a big shock
to people in Highland Meadows and Ross Downs. She said that she is concerned about the fact
that the fire station will need more property and if there are going to be more homes developed
in the area, there certainly will be commercial to follow. She said that she has concerns about
traffic, entrances and exits, the small buffers, and drainage.
Marge Angers, 6104 Highland Hills Lane, said that she came and spoke at the last meeting and
this plan has not addressed any of the major concerns which are entrance and egress from the
subdivision and Hall Johnson not being able to support this kind of building, drainage, fire
department. She said that now all Mr. Bagwell has done is made so that now most of the traffic
is facing into their back yards. She said that that is not a way to raise small children as their fence
will face onto a street and the street will be aimed into their back yard. She said that her property
will not retain its value in a situation like that.
Don Learman, 58008 Highland Hills Lane, said that the buffer zone is supposed to be 30' wide
and it is only 5' to 6' where it is abutting cul-de-sacs. She said that most homes will not get the

benefit of the beauty proposed in this subdivision. She questioned the sincerity of the
presentation by Mr. Bagwell and stated opposition to the zoning change.
Scott Jostus, 6300 Wyatt Drive, said that he did his due diligence three times and has called
Bluebonnet Cemetery and was told that this property would always be a cemetery. He said that
City, he was also told that this was cemetery property and no development was being planned in
the area. He said that records showed there were conversations going on with the fire department
and the City Council about a fire station while he was asking the questions. He said that he is
concerned about the infrastructure, the impact on the schools, the increase in traffic on Hall
Johnson Road and he is against the zoning change.
Dave Duzack, 2301 Wilkes Court, Ross Downs, said that this development will have an impact
on the community and drainage is a big problem. He said that this is the beginning of the
drainage that goes to Kimsey Park in Ross Downs and it impacts the Bear Creek erosion. He said
that the City should buy the property and make it a park.
Kipp Whitman, 3402 Crossgate Circle South, said that the Commission should consider some
logic. He said that the trees in Highland Meadows are not original trees as the developer scalped
the property. He said that Mr. Bagwell has a reputation for developing special subdivisions. He
said that the longer the property is vacant, the more expensive it becomes to develop and less
amenities will be offered.
Scott Jostus said that maybe the cost is rising, but maybe it needs to stay a cemetery.
Steve Apaliski, 2003 Reynolds Drive, said that he has concerns about the green space as there
are none proposed for the areas that abut Ross Downs. He said that he wants buffers for all lots.
He said that the property currently slopes down to his yard and he has concerns about the
drainage. He said that there are safety concerns as they have even had cars vandalized in his
subdivision and he wants to make sure that the streets are closed off.
Tona Reynolds, 6108 Highland Hills, said that she is very passionate about this wonderful area.
She said that when they were looking for a home, they were told by the homeowners on the
street, the real estate agent, the City and the cemetery, that this was an institutional use and used
as a cemetery. She said that David Bagwell said that he could not do a PUD-R. He made it
sound like an ultimatum. She said that the citizens of Colleyville that were already here deserve
something for being here before the development was proposed. She said that she is from Texas
and when you are from Texas and somebody tells you something, you generally take it like a
handshake. She said that when a director of a cemetery or people associated with a city tell you
that something is not going to happen, you assume you can believe them. Ms. Reynolds said that
currently behind their house is a park like setting and to be reduced to 30' of open ground is
unacceptable. She said that she. came here to ask the Commission to vote this down. She said
that they should contact other cemeteries and see if they could purchase the land or build a park.
AI Zim, 7209 John McCain Road, said that he has tried to contact Mr. Bagwell twice through his
attorney regarding water drainage that could possibly come on his property from the development

he is doing on the corner of Westcoat and John McCain and neither time has he replied. He saio
that he is prepared now to be in a regressive law suit against him and possibly against the City
of Colleyville for allowing him to have water go across his property which is illegal. He said that
we hired a Fire Chief in Colleyville and he is a smart man and we need to listen to his suggestions
and to what he thinks is not going to work rather than wait until we have a fire and find out that
the streets are too narrow for a fire truck to turn around and can't get people out. He said that if
there needs to be 50' streets, Mr. Bagwell needs to do it. If there needs to be a 50' cul-de-sac,
then that is what we need to do. He said that both the police department and fire department
need to be listened to in their suggestions on platting. He said that he wanted to talk about water
drainage and how everyone here has talked about water flooding over their property. He said that
this subdivision is going to have streets made out of concrete and these streets do not retain
water, but shove it down to the next lowest spot. He said that each house that is on the property
is going to take that much water retention off the property. He said that the City of Bedford has
imposed a drainage water tax based on how much concrete you have on your property as
opposed to how much grass. He suggest that the Commission table the case and take their plat
to the City of Bedford and have them look at the amount of water that will be running off this
property and have them make suggestions for Hall Johnson. He said that the Commission is
grossly underestimating the amount of water that is going to be running off the property. Mr. lim
said that on the development at John McCain and Westcoat, he has changed the water flow from
what he has proposed to the City and he isn't sure that anyone has looked at it.
Anne-Marie Apaliski, 2003 Reynolds Drive, in Ross Downs, and said that she is in the north cornE
of this development and they have no buffer. She said that her property backs up to Bluebonnet
Hills. She said that the cemetery property is higher than theirs and there is currently a big
drainage ditch and she is concerned about how it will be grated and the water they will get. She
said that what happens in the morning for people who live in Ross Downs, Wyatt is just a gravel
path, the only way to get to schools is to go down Reynolds to Meade to Connie and out to Twelve
Oaks. She said that people have to turn left to go to Cross Timbers and Grapevine High School
and a right to go to Glenhope. She said that Highland Meadows also has to come down Twelve
Oaks to get to these schools and all of the traffic backs up in the morning and you can't get out.
She said that people have to content with work traffic, and the traffic on Hwy. 26 is backed up and
children will be late for school so they go through Ross Downs. She said that 83 plus houses with
83 plus children and 83 plus cars and they will be going down her street to get to school. She said
that this piece of land, the City won't care about aesthetics for the neighbors, but the valid points
are the drainage, traffic, fire department, the danger of criminals entering Ross Downs from Wyatt
Drive, commercial traffic, construction traffic and traffic problems in reverse. She asked the
Commission to keep the property AG because it already has too many problems to begin with.
Skip Kinch, 6202 Highland Hills Lane, said that he is one 15% of the people that has the 25'
drainage ditch in the back and if this project goes through he would like a resolution about how
that issue will be treated before it moves forward. He said that the unique design that creates
headlights coming into 25% to 40% of the homes on Highland Hills Lane and that is bizarre. He
said that the last zoning meeting there was mentioned that there was a speed issue with a straight
north/south street. He said that they felt that they learned a lesson with Highland Hills Lane anc.
didn't want to repeat is in this subdivision. He said that he is opposed to it and just because there

is land there it does not mean that it needs to be turned into a residential subdivision.
David Richardson, an attorney have handled representation of Bluebonnet Hills in there sale of
property to David Bagwell, 1445 Ross Avenue, Suite 2300, Dallas, TX, 75214. He said that he
lives over by White Rock Lake in Dallas which is a pretty popular area of Dallas. He said that
most of the people who oppose the project abut the cemetery and they each purchased their lots
but did not purchase the lot that is owned by Bluebonnet Hills. He said that for them to say that
Bluebonnet Hills now owes them some sort of obligation of open space or view of scenic country
side is simply not the law in Texas. He said that Bluebonnet Hills is very regretful of the fact that
this has touched off such a fire storm in the City of Colleyville, but they're owned by a publicly
traded company that has made a business decision to sell property. He said that that is dictated
by market factors that people simply don't bury people in the same manner that they used to. He
said that it is much more prominent these days to use mausoleums and to use cremation. He
said that it's real important for the Commission to understand that the folks that are asking for this
to remain open space simply have no support for their position under Texas law. It is clear and
has been litigated in Texas that if someone next door to you restricts your view you can't do
anything about it. He said that you can't sue them as they don't owe you rights of a view or the
right of open space. He said that the cemetery has made projections about how much longer the
land they have outside of this land is going to last them and the projection is that it will last longer
than anybody in the room will be alive. He said that is important to look at where these people
live who are in opposition in relation to the cemetery and realize what they are asking the
Commission to do. He said that they will have to set up with Mr. Bagwell if he can build the
development he wants to build in a way that is suitable to the City of Colleyville and the zoning
and fire codes. He said that if it is not Mr. Bagwell, somebody else is going to buy the property.
He said that there are a number of developers who are willing to buy the property and the
cemetery has made zero marketing effort. He said that while he has heard some very legitimate
concerns this evening, but a lot of them are requesting the Commission to do what they can't do
under the law and to infringe upon the constitutional rights of Bluebonnet Hills to use its property.
Mr. Richardson said that the' best use that Bluebonnet Hills has identified for this property is to
sell it and it's their constitutional right to do it. He said that an attempt to handcuff them into
leaving it as open field is simply an abuse of the process.
Commissioner Hill said that it is a unique piece of property and he doesn't think that there will be
houses built on it unless the zoning changes. He said that it seems to be a part of the process
to gain the sales price that Bluebonnet Hills is asking and Mr. Bagwell mentioned previously that
this is the highest price that he has ever paid for property in Colleyville. He said that saying that
the property will be sold is only half of the equation and the other half is appeasing area residents
and City concerns, then rezoning the property and putting it to that use. He said that he asked
if the representative from Bluebonnet Hills was in attendance at the last meeting to dialog
modifying the purchase price to allow less density and more buffer zones. He said that Mr.
Bagwell may be trying to put more homes on the site because of the purchase price he is being
demanded to pay. Mr. Richardson responded that he agreed that the property needs to be
rezoned in order to build homes. Commissioner Hill said that it takes other factors to put to use
the property other than cemetery.

Commissioner Gasper asked Mr. Richardson if Bluebonnet Hills anticipates selling any more 01
its private property or does this sale assume to be the last transaction in the foreseeable future.
Mr. Richardson said that the only other transaction that has been contemplated is selling a
portion of the land immediately at the southeast corner of the land in order for Colleyville to build
a bigger fire station.
Commissioner Hill told Mr. Richardson that it may be possible to obtain a very handsome return
of the investment while still allowing for a much less dense residential development. Mr.
Richardson said that he thinks what Commissioner Hill is trying to say is, "Will you cut the price
so that this guy can build fewer houses out there?" Commissioner Hill responded that that is
between Mr. Richardson and Mr. Bagwell, but he is seeing a lot of legitimate concerns. He said
that although there may not be a right under Texas law to make the claims that the neighbors are
making, it is under the purview of the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council to take
those concerns into consideration in allowing a rezoning. Mr. Richardson responded that
Commissioner Hill is absolutely right and he is not here to say that he will sell the property and
just completely circumvent the Commission and is asking them not to take anything he has said
at face value. He said that he is sure that the City of Colleyville has very able representation and
has counseled them on the constitutional issues that come into play when persons and
corporations are entitled to use their land.
Commissioner Gasper said that one of the citizens talked about Bluebonnet Hills possiblv
condemning property in the future to expand the cemetery. She said that it is her understand in,
that condemning property can only be done by sovereign entity and Bluebonnet Hills is a private
corporation and therefore would never be able to condemn property. Mr. Richardson responded
that she is absolutely right and there is no way that they could do that and there is no risk to the
homeowners.
Chairman Hart said that Commissioner Hill stated what his concerns were and he understands
that under state law the neighbors can want what they want but they are not necessarily
guaranteed to get what they want. Mr. Richardson responded that that is absolutely correct.
Chairman Hart stated that the seller can sell his property as it is zoned. Mr. Richardson
responded that absolutely they can sell it as it is zoned now. Chairman Hart asked Mr.
Richardson if Commission has no obligation to change the zoning from AG to any other type of
zoning. Mr. Richardson said that the Commission is not obligated to change zonings.
Mark Hollis said that he agreed with Mr. Richardson completely that the owner of the property has
the right to sell it and Mr. Bagwell certainly has the right to buy it, but the Commission is under no
obligation whatsoever to make it suitable by Mr. Richardson's definition for his use. Mr.
Richardson agreed.
Steve Apaliski, said that he appreciates the legal opinion rendered at the meeting and it is good
to see that a representative from Bluebonnet Hills is at the meeting. He told Mr. Richardson that
his clients and representatives were asked the question by a number of people if they coulc'
purchase some of the property initially. He said that they were told that the property was intendeL
to be cemetery for the unforeseeable future. He said that he does not like casting dispersions on

people that the only reason they are opposed because they want an unrestricted view. He said
they are here because they had beliefs when they bought their property about the way the land
is arranged and now find that it is not as it was represented.
Ruth Heidel, told Mr. Richardson that they had heard initially that the reason the cemetery was
selling the land was because the economics of dying have changed. She said that the
representative from the corporation was quoted in the Fort Worth Star Telegram saying that that
is not the issue. He said that they needed the money and now he's back to saying because the
economics of dying have changed. She said that Mr. Richardson and the corporation need to get
their stories straight. She said that Bluebonnet Hills has a right to sell the land and Mr. Bagwell
has a right to buy it and ask for a zoning change. She said that the property owners within 200'
of the land have a right to oppose the request. She said that the thing that gulls her the most is
the corporation that is not even in the state of Texas, but based in New Orleans, Louisiana,
coming to the Colleyville Planning and Zoning Commission and trying to tell citizens that they
better change the zoning, because if you don't accept this plan another one is right behind it. She
said that she thought they still had home rule in this city and in the state and the citizens are the
home and this is their home and please respect that.
There being no one else present wishing to speak, the public hearing was closed.
Commissioner Edwards asked if staff has researched the right-of-way that is available along
Wyatt Drive. Barry LeBaron responded that it looks like Wyatt Drive was left over from adjacent
developments and it is difficult to pin point what is defined as right-of-way. He said that it does
not show up on any of the plats. He said that the City has received a request from a number of
citizens in Ross Downs to close a segment. He said that a meeting will be held to discuss the
matter with the citizens. Commissioner Edwards said that she remembers the discussion with
Ross Downs V that the portion of Wyatt Drive to the north of Reynolds was abandoned as a part
of the Ross Downs V plat. She said that it was done in order to have the size of lots wanted, there
was not enough right-of-way left for a road. Mr. LeBaron said that his research shows that there
is no dedicated right-of-way and it is just a street that has existed for a number of years.
Commissioner Edwards asked if staff has asked the school system about the impact of this
addition and is that something that staff can do? She said that the Pulte development is going
on this year and they are bring on other projects. Mr. LeBaron said that staff could ask for
correspondence from them.
Commissioner Edwards said that a decision needs to be made to abandon the 25' drainage
easement and ask Mr. Bagwell to take care of any problems that currently exist on the property.
She said that the problem is really associated with the cemetery problem. Mr. LeBaron
responded that when they come in with their drainage plans, the City would make a decision at
that time.
Commissioner Gasper said that the Commissioner heard that many other cities do not require as
wide of street to permit fire access and she asked the Fire Chief if there are special considerations
in Colleyville that makes it different than Dallas. Chief Johnson said that he can't give the exact
Planning & Zoning Commission
Minutes - September 25, 2000
Page 16 of 25 - Approved on 10/09/00.
reasons why they made the streets wider for cul-de-sacs to have 36' of paving width requiring 56'
of right-of-way. He said that from a fire fighting stand point, crews have more difficulty on narrow
streets when fighting a fire on a large home because of the amount of equipment, hoses, and
people needed. He said that most cities require a wider width on cul-de-sacs that normal street
widths as does Colleyville. He said that the 36 feet becomes significant when looking at street
lengths going to the cul-de-sac. He said that in Colleyville they are allowed to be 1,2000 feet long
which is enormous compared to other cities' standards. He said that most cities' only allow 600'
on cul-de-sac streets except for Southlake and they allow 1,000'. Commissioner Gasper
recapped the reasons identified by Chief Johnston.
Commissioner Gasper asked about the equivalency of a 6' vs. a 5' thick pavement. Mr. LeBaron
responded that from a lay person's point of view that a 6' thick pavement has so many sacks of
cement in it. He said that if you add more sacks, you can reduce the thickness and get the same
strength. She asked if it is possible when it is correctly engineered. He responded that yes it is,
but the engineering department says there are other factors, in terms of brittleness, ability to
withstand shifting soils, etc. He said that is why the city is staying with 6' of thickness.
Commissioner Gasper said that it sounds as if the numbers work out right, if someone wants to
put a swimming pool in their back yard and has a dump truck removing loads of soil the street may
not stand up to that kind of usage. Mr. LeBaron said that is true. Mr. LeBaron said that a lot of
the heavy loads are during the development process with concrete trucks on fairly young
pavement. Commissioner said that she understands that the more pavement ages, the stronger
it becomes.
Commissioner Gasper said that she has some various significant concerns about the drainage.
She said that having lived in Colleyville for 8 years and having grown up in the area, she has
seen when the water went over the spillway of Grapevine Lake. She said that they said it wouldn't
happen for 100 years and if happened the first year they lived here. She said that she is not
seeing anything that makes her comfortable with how the drainage is being treated. She said that
she assumes that to fix the drainage, it would reduce the yield on the property. Commissioner
Gasper asked Mr. Bagwell if he was able to fix the drainage so it wouldn't go over other people's
property and be able to retain and take the water into storm sewers so it wouldn't go on public
property without damaging anybody. Mr. Bagwell responded that he could.
Commissioner Gasper said that she has a great deal of concerns that people will be driving down
streets and car lights will be going into people's back yards. She said that when people buy
property they have a reasonable expectation that things are kind of going to stay the way they are.
She said, however, when a business decision is made and property is being sold, she doesn't
think that homeowners expect to have headlights. She told Mr. Bagwell that he talks as if this is
a new design and wanted to know if the development could be reconfigured so that the streets
are wider, the headlights do not shine into people's properties, and the drainage is solely
contained on property.
Mr. Bagwell responded that those who design property, live around it, and live in it, need to take
ultimate confidence in the City of Colleyville engineering staff and the development standards set
by them. Also, developers hire licensed Texas civil engineers who are trained and experienced
Planning & Zoning Commission
Minutes - September 25, 2000

to not produce bad drainage. He said that we do not live in a perfect world and does not know
as a lay person what more can be done than to rely upon the drainage standards of the
community that they are obligated to adhere to and the experience of licensed engineering firms
to follow them. Mr. Bagwell said that what would be between the lights arid backyards would
prevent that. He said that he is happy to commit that to the ordinance as it is not his intent for
anyone to have lights in their backyard. He said that to the extent he can he puts himself in the
position of people living around the development and considers what it would be like. He said that
he would be glad to attempt to add to the buffer along the east side by eliminating it in other
areas.
Commissioner Edwards said that the people who have existing homes would, like as much open
space as possible along the eastern side of the development and she asked Mr. Bagwell if he had
considered that. He responded that he heard something different that was about existing views
and they served that objective as well as the buffering objective. He said that he has never
received a figure as to the buffer size, but tonight it was stated that 30' is too little and in some
cases it looks as if there is only 5' to 6' and that is not correct. He said in some cases he could
pull the bubbles back.
Commissioner Hocutt asked if anyone on staff has talked to Bob Moore Sports Center as far as
the impact of lights and foul golf balls. Staff distributed a letter in support of the zoning change
from the owner of Bob Moore Sports Center. Commissioner Hocutt asked if there would be nets
protecting the homeowners from golf balls going over the fence and what will be done about the
lights late at night shining into the residential subdivisions.
Commissioner Edwards stated her concerns about the open space, her opposition to a gated
community since everyone should share the traffic, the special rules have caveats for drainage
and streets, item's #5 & #5 relate to drainage. Mr. Bagwell responded that pilot channels are not
favorable in the soil in Colleyville and one of the things that they are trying to establish if approved
for zoning, they are trying to nail down all of the elements for development. He said that they
have done that in their other subdivisions. She said that the layout of the private space is
inefficient for the homeowners association to take care of.
Commissioner Hollis asked why Mr. Bagwell added a condition that in lieu of concrete pipe they
would be allowed to use another product. Mr. Bagwell responded that there are new products that
come to market at gradually gain acceptance upon their use. He said that there are new products
that have proven to be very effective and less expensive. If it is less expensive yet equivalent he
should be allowed to use them and the proposal stimulates discussion at a technical level.
Commissioner Hollis said that he agrees, however Mr. Bagwell needs to propose it to City staff
and not the Planning and Zoning Commission and if the staff supports it, possibly the Commission
can. Mr. Bagwell said that he has never found a Zoning Commission that is inclined to support
different standards.
Commissioner Wall asked questions of Mr. Bagwell about gated subdivisions and if there are
other areas of Colleyville that have similar traffic patterns with this many lots entering and exiting
without a stop light onto a thoroughfare. He said that there is a problem with the existing traffic

and it will compound it with this subdivision. Clayton Husband said the criteria for a signal to be
installed at this location will be reviewed. Commissioner Wall asked if staff was assured that the
drainage coming of the proposed development can be handled by existing city off-site
infrastructure without improvement. Mr. LeBaron said that it i~ a concern to get too many
drainage issues wrapped up in a land use question. He said that they are platting issues and until
they have done the drainage analysis which is a part of the subdivision for the plat, it is premature
to develop them for a zoning case. He said that they are simply asking if they can use the
property for something, and staff does not have enough information at this point to determine if
down stream improvements will be required, etc. Commissioner Wall said that at this point there
is no rational to approving special conditions. Mr. LeBaron said that is true.
Commissioner Hollis asked the Fire Chief if he ever has more than two vehicles at the scene of
a fire emergency and if they have room to reposition vehicles on a 36' paved cul-de-sac. Chief
Johnston responded that it depends on parked cars and the fire vehicles will block the street in
a house fire. He said that they might not have room to set up on a 21' pavement depending on
parked cars and that is why they have a minimum of 31' of pavement.
Commissioner Gasper asked if there were two cars parked directly across from each other on a
residential street, would the fire department have enough space to get through. Fire Chief
Johnson responded that in reality, according to state law, cars can park up to 18" away from the
curb and not be ticketed. He said that even when cars are parked next to the curb 15 feet
becomes unusable and leaves less than 15 feet for fire fighting equipment. When the doors ope.
and equipment is set up there is not enough room to work around the area if the fire is at that
location. Mr. Bagwell said that no one else has as restrictive regulations as Colleyville and
homeowners will self police no parking on the inside of looped streets. He said that another
possibility is to pull the cul-de-sacs back.
Mr. Bagwell said that he was asked to do a PUD by the community and at the time he presented
his first case for R20 he did not know how to do a PUD for the property, but he has designed one
and has been criticized for it. He said that he will continue to work on the plan.
Commissioner Gasper moved to table the case to allow the developer more time to meet
with the residents that will be impacted by the development as he has heard some of the
issues raised tonight. She said that he has new members on the Commission and has no
idea where they are coming from. She said that in fairness to Mr. Bagwell and the
community she would like to see the case tabled and ask him to find some sort of forum
to meet with the residents to work out the concerns. She said that she sees a trade off of
vista and privacy. Commissioner Hill seconded the motion. The vote being:
Ayes: Gasper, Edwards, Hocutt, Hollis, Wall, Hill, Hart
Noes: None

2. A Final Plat for Riverwalk at Colleyville, requested by Charles Searcey for D. R. Horton-Texas
Ltd., 20.054 acres located on the N. side of Glade Road at the.future Riverwalk Drive. Case
P-00-065
Clayton Husband presented the case to the Commission and explained the conditions of the PUD.
Commissioner Gasper asked for instructions on what they are permitted to consider since an
ordinance for the development is already in place. Clayton Husband spoke about the items to
consider when reviewing a plat.
Commissioner Edwards said that the issue of maximum lot coverage on the small lots should be
addressed. She discussed the problems she sees with The Villas at Caldwell Creek that has very
large houses on very small lots.
Commissioner Hill asked if there is a time limit for the commercial development associated with
this plat. Mr. Husband said that the commercial development would be subject to the
requirements of the PUD and there is not a specific time that it is required to be constructed.
Commissioner Hocutt asked about the Development Review Comments pertaining to item #4B
and the size of cul-de-sacs. Clayton Husband said that the plat as proposed is what was
established by the PUD. Barry LeBaron went over side yard requirements within the subdivision.
Chairman Hart said that Riverwalk Drive was proposed many years ago and this development
would construct one half of the roadway and the developer to. the east will build the other half.
He said that this is the beginning of Riverwalk Drive off Glade Road and the City will not have to
build this portion.
Commissioner Wall asked if people who will be purchasing lots in the subdivision would be aware
of the future development and what will be built to the north of them. Commissioner Edwards said
that the property is zoned for high commercial and no plans are in place currently for the property.
Jennifer Hile, representing the developer was present to address the Commission. The
Commission had no questions.
Commissioner Hill moved to approve the final plat. Commissioner Gasper seconded the
motion. The vote being:

4. PUBLIC HEARING - An amendment to Chapter 3, Land Use, of the Land Development Code
regarding large commercial facilities. Case Z-00-069
Barry LeBaron presented the item to the Commission. He gave the history of the request by City
Council to develop an ordinance. He said that the proposed ordinance addresses the issues that
staff has heard and has met with the Highway 26 task force. He said that they also contacted a
number of communities that have had to deal with the same issue and also the American
Planning Association. He said that some of the issues are huge vastness of parking lots, sterile
facades, landscaping, dumpster screening, outside storage, screening, outside displays,
construction materials, exterior colors and logo colors.
Commissioner Wall asked if the ordinance has been reviewed by the City Attorney. Staff
responded yes. He asked if there have been any users identified for the commercial property
south of Hall Johnson Road and Colleyville Blvd. Mr. LeBaron responded that there are no
applications pending for any buildings or zoning requests that have fallen under this category. He
said that we only have a plat submitted and it does not require the identification of buildings.
Commissioner Gasper asked since they have applied for a plat, would they be covered by this
ordinance? Barry LeBaron responded that this is a zoning issue and it would be applicable since
zoning is not a part of the vested rights statute, but an attorney would have to verify that.
Commissioner Hill said that is his fundamental concern.
Commissioner Hocutt asked about parking on the current Albertsons and Mr. LeBaron responded
that he has concerns about establishing requirements that do not allow over parking on lots.
Commissioner Edwards discussed the possibility if including regulations for road worthy brick and
shared parking requirements.
Commissioner Hill asked staff what cities ordinances were mirrored. Mr. LeBaron said that they
used several but were impressed with Fort Collins, Colorado and Fort Worth.
Commissioner Hocutt had questions about parking cart racks. There was discussion abou.
overlaying the current regulations in the ML zoning district. Discussion arose about the need to

elaborate on lighting designs.
Commissioner Edwards raised the point that there are no provisions in the ordinance for abutting
residential streets. The Commission also discussed the building design score criteria.
Chairman Hart opened the public hearing. Those present wishing to speak were:
Rich Munson, 1905 Hall Johnson Road, asked questions about the display area and suggested
that it should be more defined.
Doug Henderson, told how the design scores were established for the City when he was the
Director and how establishing too high of a design criteria could cripple large buildings.
Kipp Whitman, 3402 Crossgate Circle S., said that he is a member of the Highway 26
Commission and they had a meeting with some of the Council present to help give input for the
ordinance.
Linda Baker, 404 W. McDonwell School Road, said that one box size doesn't fit all. She said that
Albertsons and K-Mart may not be able to develop on Precinct Line Road and if Colleyville makes
the regulations too strict for certain parts of the city, the may be a proliferation of people selling
their property to churches. She said that Precinct Line Road is the last change to get large
commercial shopping centers.
There being no one else present wishing to speak, the public hearing was closed.
Commissioner Hollis questioned would happen to a business that came to the community and
was well received but could not meet all of the criteria, are there variance possibilities. Barry
LeBaron said that they require a PUD and the criteria are established in the PUD.
Commissioner Wall began discussion about how many areas are left to develop large commercial.
Commissioner Hill asked what the rational was for the 50,000 s.f. criteria vs. the 55,000 s.f. in the
moratorium. Mr. LeBaron said that the criteria were established at the joint meeting with the
Highway 26 Committee and Council. Commissioner Hill restated the position of the City Attorney
and staff that this ordinance will apply to a property that is zoned commercial for which a
preliminary plat has been filed with the City. Mr. LeBaron responded that it would apply.
Commissioner Gasper questioned the typical size of a side wall as it relates to three changes to
prevent bland walls. She raised questions about screening from residential properties and the
possibilities of having the grass on the outside of the fence nearer the residential areas, and
outdoor display when a business is open 24 hours. There was discussion about having a
minimum of 50,000 s.f., but no maximum and the possible formula for set backs, and a formula
for distance of garbage collection away from residential areas.
Commissioner Hocutt initiated discussion about permitted signage.

Commissioner Edwards initiated discussion about screening from residential areas located
adjacent or across the street from a big box. They discussed 20"grass with berms, berms with
shrubs, low stone walls as another option. She said that she wanted to see more landscaping
areas in the parking lots.
Commissioner Gasper recommended that language could be added to consider comparable
materials. She initiated discussion of considering language added for: grasscrete as an option
for overflow parking; HID lighting terms; cart storage; security lighting in the back of buildings;
outside storage locations; setback requirements; low masonry walls as an alternative; a general
statement for alternative materials; 20' of land and a brick wall to allow some buffer for trucks.
Staff said that they would try to incorporate all of the Commissioners' comments into an
ordinance to present to City Council.
Commissioner Hill said that he agrees with everything that has been said and also thinks that with
a dozen or so spots in the city a well written big box ordinance is a good thing and should continue
to work on it. He said that there are two issues. He said that one is the specifics of the ordinance
and the other is who it applies to. He said that he wants to go on record as stating that he has
a fundamental concern about the wording of the ordinance and the City's position with regard as
to who it applies to as they relate to the conflict of vested rights in Texas. He said that namely to
people who have already begun their development process by filing a preliminary plat prior to thE='
moratorium and then the big box ordinance being considered. He said that the wording exposE
the City to risk of a legal challenge especially in light of the circumstances and the timing of the
moratorium. Commissioner Hill said that he would suggest that they avoid that problem at the
outset by clarifying who it applies to and he would make the suggestion that they do so.
Commissioner Gasper said that if the draft if run by legal counsel, the legal staff needs to be
trusted to look at the changes also. Commissioner Hill said that he respectfully disagrees with
that statement.
Commissioner Gasper moved to recommend approval of the ordinance with instruction to
the staff that they develop and provide information in the ordinance presented to the City
Council as stated above. Commissioner Hocutt seconded the motion. The vote being:
Ayes: Gasper, Edwards, Hocutt, Hollis, Wall, Hart
Noes: Hill
Commissioner Hill said that his vote was based solely on the vested rights issues.
5. TABLED ITEM - A Zoning Change requested by Doug Henderson representing Kipp

6.335 acres located at the southeast corner of Lavaca Trail and Precinct Line Road. Case Z-

Barry LeBaron presented the case and told that that there is an added feature of an 1,800 sq. ft.
caretakers facility associated with the request. He said that the kennel plat areas are on the west
side and would be detrimental. He said that the open play area is located inside the kennel and
after staff heard the issues raised at the last public hearing, they have made a recommendation
of denial.
Chairman Hart opened the public hearing. Those present wishing to speak were:
Kipp Whitman, owner, said that he wanted to dispel the notion of a kennel. He discussed the
overall site plan and how this location does not lend itself to a strip shopping center. He
discussed the building design and the ability to baffle the sound. He said that the outside play are
makes best use of the flood plain area. Mr. Whitman said that the kennel services will bring in
taxes and the other alternatives for the property are offices that do not generate tax revenues.
He said that the overall site is not big enough for a large box. Mr. Whitman said that one of the
benefits to the owner of the kennel building in this location is that she has 7,000 active customers
and 900 of them are Colleyville residents. He said that there would potentially be 700,000 cars
per year coming to the location.
Lewis Martin, 1013 W. Lavaca, said that the kennel could raise the elevation of the property and
all of the water will go over his property. He said that he does not want runoff from the kennel on
his property. He said that dog kennels are not a good deal. He said that he does not have a
problem with a gas station at the corner.
Danny Ogel, 1009 W. Lavaca, said that he has 5 acres and a kennel is not a good draw for the
area. He said that the area is currently very quiet and he does not anticipate that a kennel will
produce much tax revenue.
Bill Souder, 305 Brook Ridge Court, Hurst, said that he should the property south and the master
plan shows for commercial to be located in the area. He said that there are many houses being
built in the area and this will become a choice center of higher scale commercial. He said that
a dog kennel does not belong and his is opposed.
Kipp Whitman said that Mr. Martin's concerns about drainage will be addressed at time of platting.
He said that the kennel owner will contract veterinary services.
Commissioner Hocutt asked Mr. Whitman what he would see this building used for if it was not
used as a kennel. He responded that it could be used for an athletic club or office complex.

Judy Martin Rejeri, 1013 W. Lavaca, said that she has been in the area for 18 years and does n01
want to see a kennel or hear a kennel. She said that there is nothing to be gained by the city.
She said that there have been times when the property is knee deep in water and the kennel will
create more water. She said that there are other uses that could be more appropriate in the area
like a bridal shop or a Krispy Creme Donuts. She said that a kennel will make her property values
decline.
Linda Baker, 404 W. McDonwell School Road, said that when the original PUD was placed on the
property the City lost control of the commercial development of the area. She said that if the city
keeps piece-mealing the parcels out, no large commercial development will happen in the area.
She said that the City needs to begin thinking in longer terms than next year. She said that she
is speaking in behalf of the Western Gateway.
Kipp Whitman said that there has been no loss of control for commercial development and
restaurants are on hold because of the lack of business in the area and the kennel would bring
customers.
Doug Henderson, representing Mr. Whitman, talked about building setbacks.
There being no one else present wishing to speak, the public hearing was closed.
Commissioner Hocutt made a recommendation to deny the zoning change request base,
on the information presented. Commissioner Gasper seconded the motion.

Noes: Edwards, Hollis, Wall, Hill, Hart
