Regular Session on April 19, 2007, at 7:00 pm in the Svore Municipal Building
Boardroom, 100 Municipal Drive, Trophy Club, Texas 76262.

A.1 Call to order and announce a quorum.
Chairman Hill called the meeting to order at 7:00 pm.
Chairman Hill asked for a consensus to move agenda item C.2 forward so the
applicant can go to another appointment.
C.2 Discuss and take appropriate action relative to a Final Plat for approval for
an approximate 12.23 acre tract of land legally described as A. Medlin
Survey, Abstract No. 832, known as Churchill Downs. Applicant: Southwest
T.O.O. Development L.L.C. (FP-07-011)
Planning and Zoning Commission June 21, 2007 Page 18 of 31
Chairman Hill gave a brief history of this development: Prior to annexation the
owner submitted its intent for land use. The municipality may not restrict newly
annexed land of its intended land use. Therefore, the Town cannot enforce the
current zoning restrictions at this time and we must allow lots that do not meet
our zoning requirements. The lots are considered nonconforming R-15 lots and
must be approved as submitted. Chairman Hill encouraged Mr. Price to rezone
to smaller sized lots to comply with lesser zoning, so they would no longer be
classified as nonconforming. This would be a protection for the land owner.
Mr. Price presented a rough drawing of the front gates of the development and
stated that the development will be surrounded with a stone wall.
Chairman Hill mentioned that there were a couple of typographical errors that
need to be corrected before going forward to Council:
• Under Notes #3 – designated and creek are misspelled
• County of Denton, incapacity is misspelled
• Highway is wrong in the vicinity map, should be HWY 377, not HWY 35
• Utility easements need to be shown on individual lots
Commissioner Reed stated it was a lot of houses for having only one way in and
out. Mr. Price stated he checked with the Fire Marshall to ensure that the turn
radius was adequate.
A motion was made to recommend approval with stipulations that the
corrections be made before going forward to the Town Council.
Motion: Stephens
Second: Sheridan
Ayes: Hill, Stephens, Moss, Reed, Sanchez, Sheridan
Action: 6-0
Motion carried.

REGULAR SESSION
C.1 Discuss and take appropriate action relative to a request for Replat for 5
and 7 Stephens Court, also described as Lots 9 and 8 of Estates of Hogan's
Glen, Phase II. (RP-07-011)
Chairman Hill stated that this was a straight forward application with the home
on lot 9 and the applicant asking for consolidation of two lots into Lot 8-R,
A motion was made to recommend approval.
Motion: Reed
Second: Moss
Ayes: Hill, Stephens, Moss, Reed, Sanchez, Sheridan
Action: 6-0
Motion carried.
C.3 Discuss and take appropriate action on a request for Preliminary Plat
approval for Lots 1 and 2, Block 1 and Lots 1 and 2, Block 2, NISD High
School No. 2, being 92.655 acres of land located in the T. Calaway Survey,
Abstract 272, the T. Kelly Survey, Abstract 704m and the J. Henry Survey,
Abstract 529. Applicant: MJ Thomas Engineering, LLC. (PP-07-015)
Mickey Thomas of MJ Thomas Engineering, LLC addressed the Commissioners.
Mr. Thomas stated that they are working on the primary public utility line that
runs along with the 15-foot water easement. They are working in conjunction
with the Town on getting a 12-inch waterline to help support the proposed
elevated storage tank on the northwest corner of the site. NISD is agreeing to
pay for an 8-inch water line and the Town will pay for the remainder of the 12-
inch water line. There will be a 90-foot right-of-way dedicated along the western
edge of the site for the Northwest Parkway road, which is to be the extension of
Marshall Creek Road. Marshall Creek Road will be widened in conjunction with
all of the road improvements for the High School site.
Planning and Zoning Commission June 21, 2007 Page 20 of 31
Chairman Hill asked Tom Rutledge for his concerns or comments. Mr. Rutledge
stated there is an agreement being worked out between Roanoke, Marshall
Creek and Trophy Club to construct the additional road that will make a second
connection to HWY 377. This will be a major component for the High School,
creating an additional lot block and helping with control of traffic congestion.
The Highlands Developer is going to aid in this as well.
Brandon Emmons commented that parkland dedication will not be reduced
with the new road alignment. The developer will match acre for acre and the
move of parkland will be a better use of the land.
Commissioner Sheridan stated that the plans are inadequate in size for review
and that he recommends to postpone and table and request larger documents
for review. He then asked Chairman Hill if he could talk about traffic issues.
Chairman Hill stated no, this was not on the agenda and we would be stepping
out of bounds of the preliminary plat discussion. Commissioner Sheridan went
on to state that the lighted athletic fields that abut the new development will
create light, noise and traffic after hours and he would not vote for it.
A motion was made to postpone and request full size documents to review.
Motion: Sheridan
Second: Moss
Mr. Thomas stated that the plats were provided according to Town
requirements.
Commissioner Reed stated he would have liked a larger size, but does not see
how we can postpone since staff requested this size.
Vice Chairman Stephens asked Mr. Thomas if he could provide larger
documents and what it would do to his schedule if the commission voted to
postpone this agenda item. Vice Chairman continued to state that any
postponement would greatly hinder the work and we should not use this for an
excuse to postpone.
Mehran Aghili stated he understands the document size issue and he is willing to
review each document, line by line with the commission.
Vice Chairman Stephens stated that he appreciates Mr. Aghili’s comments and
does not want to slow the process.
Brandon Emmons stated that the size submitted is what the Town requires and
he does understand the issue and he would have liked to have known about
Planning and Zoning Commission June 21, 2007 Page 21 of 31
the size issue sooner to have larger documents prepared for adequate
reviewing.
Ayes: Sheridan
Action: 1-4-1, with Commissioner Moss abstaining
Motion failed.
Commissioner Sanchez stated he understood Commissioner Sheridan’s concerns
of the location of the athletic fields. The only concern Commissioner Sanchez
had was that the grades and drainage were very hard to read. Mr. Thomas
stated that the drainage areas are shown and he was only asked to show the
drainage area of the site and provide flow calculations, cross sections will be
forthcoming.
Tom Rutledge stated that he has had two reviews with Mr. Thomas. The initial
review was submitted with half sizes and he asked Mr. Thomas to resubmit with
24x36 plans and they were provided for his second review. Mr. Rutledge went
on to state that since this is the preliminary plat, it is not typical to get into all the
finite details, just make sure the drainage areas conform to the natural terrain
and they are in line with how the topography lay out. It looks like the drainage is
going where it has always gone.
When the final is submitted, final engineering calculations are required to
support pipe sizes and the channel size. At least at this stage, Mr. Thomas is
showing he is providing adequate water and general drainage access.
Mr. Rutledge stated that the sanitary sewer line is being provided by The
Highlands and asked for an agreement to guarantee the sanitary sewer and
development guidelines will be there. He also stated that everything seems to
conform to the Town standards and what has been submitted is a concept plan
and the site plan will be submitted separately; the applicant has met the
requirements and can move forward.
Vice Chairman Stephens stated if Mr. Rutledge is satisfied at this stage, then he’s
satisfied because Mr. Rutledge has reviewed them at length and with a larger
size.
Commissioner Moss stated he had concerns regarding the sports field location
and asked if the location will be looked at again in more detail. He also stated
that he understood that the building could not be moved and has no issue with
what is before them tonight.
Planning and Zoning Commission June 21, 2007 Page 22 of 31
Commissioner Reed stated he had the same questions as Commissioner Moss
and asked if the fields were lighted and if they had activity at night. The fields
will be used for both school and Town activity.
Mr. Rutledge stated that there are three steps to the process; the first being the
preliminary plat, then the site plan and then the final plat. The final plat will be
reviewed extensively and the developer is aware of the review process.
Restrictions of the height of the lights will be reviewed to make sure they meet
the photometric requirements.
Chairman Hill asked Brandon Emmons to clarify the block of land for the future
water tower. Mr. Emmons stated that one requirement for the Town to secure a
water source for The Highlands Development was the consideration of the
construction of a 500,000 gallon water storage tank. At the request of the
district, there is currently a section behind Medlin that was dedicated by plat to
the Town for a future water tank; because of the size constraints at Medlin, they
negotiated to swap and put the water tank on the farthest northern point of the
Town. The details are still in design stages, but could possibly hold some sort of
office/storage space and possibly the second substation for the fire
department. The storage tank will be a 500,000 gallon composite tank, similar to
the existing tank on the east part of town.
Commissioner Sheridan asked when the meeting of the building
location/requirements took place. Chairman Hill answered that the location of
the building was shown when the zoning came forward and that the High
School has to go where it’s located because of the topography drop off of the
land and building design.
Commissioner Sheridan stated that since this preliminary plat has the site plan
included in the submission then approval of the preliminary plat will give quasi
approval of site plan and also stated his continued opposition. Commissioner
Sheridan went on to say, “The closer they get to a final plat, the less ability we
have to make any changes as long as they keep meeting the requirements and
I’ll continue with my opposition.”
Vice Chairman Stephens stated he prefers to have the building on the back side
of the lot instead of having a commercial type building butting up to the
residential area. This allows the ball fields to work as a buffer zone and also
provide more security for the building. Vice Chairman Stephens also said, “I like
the green, it is a good break and will look like a park while not having a
commercial building right next to the street.”
Commissioner Moss asked if there have been any issues reported with any of the
other parks and lights. Brandon Emmons stated that the only complaints have
Planning and Zoning Commission June 21, 2007 Page 23 of 31
been when there is no one present and the lights are left on. The Town has taken
steps to automate the lights and is able to remotely turn the lights off when no
one is there. No residents have complained about light flooding into the
residential areas.
Brandon Emmons stated that, from the Town’s perspective, the location of the
fields will be a positive – and he appreciates Vice Chairman Stephen’s
comments - because of joint use the proposed location lends itself to better use.
A motion was made to recommend approval.
Motion: Stephens
Second: Reed
Commissioner Sanchez asked about landscape or tree buffer. Mr. Thomas
stated he is currently working on grading to include trees and berms.
Chairman Hill stated that landscaping is part of the final plat and cannot be
discussed at this time.
Ayes: Hill, Stephens, Moss, Reed, Sanchez
Action: 5-1-0; with Commissioner Sheridan voting against.
Motion carried.

A.1 CALL TO ORDER AND ANNOUNCE A QUORUM.
Chairman Hill called the meeting to order at 7:02 p.m.
B.1 DISCUSS AND TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION ON A REQUEST FOR FINAL PLAT
APPROVAL FOR LOTS 1, 2, AND 3, BLOCK A, GOLF MAINTENANCE FACILITY
ADDITION, BEING 4.038 ACRES OF LAND LOCATED IN THE MARY MEDLIN SURVEY,
ABSTRACT 832. APPLICANT: BECK PROPERTIES TROPHY CLUB, L.P. (FP-07-020)
Chairman Hill announced the case and asked for staff review and recommendation.
Carolyn Huggins explained that at the time of packet delivery to the Commission
members, staff review and recommendation of the final plat was pending. Since then,
Mr. Ballans submitted a revised plat and staff now recommends approval of the final
plat. However, with the engineering plans, there are still outstanding issues regarding
general comments, as well as sheets C1, C3 and C4. Staff is asking that the Commission
recommend approval of the final plat with the stipulation that the outstanding general
comments, as well as the issues outstanding on sheets C1, C3 and C4 are addressed,
and approval from our engineer and staff be obtained prior to plat approval by the
Town Council.
Planning and Zoning Commission June 21, 2007 Page 26 of 31
Tom Rutledge explained to the Commission that the comments are fairly self-
explanatory and are not insurmountable to get through, but are issues that need to be
addressed as far as meeting the Town standards and ordinances for engineering plans.
This is a simple project, but there are public improvements involved and the comments
reflect the public improvements needed.
Commissioner Sheridan stated that although there are minor issues, an item such as
sewer profiling is not simple. He asked Mr. Ballans if there was any doubt that they
would be able to be ready by Monday’s Town Council meeting. Mr. Ballans responded
that they would be ready. Chairman Hill stated that the applicant only had a few days
to address these issues and if they were not ready on Monday, the Town Council would
be advised to table the item.
Commissioner Moss asked Mr. Rutledge if he thought the engineering plans could be
approved by Monday. Mr. Rutledge responded that it might be possible if he received
the plans on Friday morning and worked over the weekend to review them. He stated
that they need to see the drainage study that is part of Sheet C1 and Town Ordinance
requires that it be signed and sealed by an engineer, which he didn’t know if that could
be accomplished by Monday.
Commissioner Sanchez asked a question regarding building plans and Chairman Hill
responded to the question and then noted that the building permit process is not part
of the platting process but would be handled by staff after the plat is approved.
Several Commissioners complimented Commissioner Sanchez on the quality of his
questions and explained that they had the benefit of seeing building plans as part of
the site plan review and the variances requested by the applicant, which occurred
prior to Mr. Sanchez’s appointment to the Planning & Zoning Commission.
Vice Chairman Stephens asked if there are constraints that make it mandatory that this
go before Council on Monday. Mr. Ballans responded that it was their understanding
that platting was completed months ago and they had applied for a building permit
when they found out the final plat was not completed. They were ready to begin
construction two weeks ago. They are facing construction delay costs.
Motion: Vice Chairman Stephens motioned to recommend approval of the final
plat contingent upon the engineering plans being revised per General
Comments, as well as the comments noted for Sheets C1, C3 and C4.
(comments attached)
Second: Commissioner Sheridan seconded the motion and asked that it be
amended to state that the revisions must be approved by the engineer
and staff prior to the Town Council meeting on May 21, 2007.
Vice Chairman Stephens agreed to the amendment.
Ayes: Sanchez, Sheridan, Hill, Stephens, Moss, Reed
Action: Approved, 6-0
Motion carried.
This item will be forwarded to the Town Council at their May 21, 2007 meeting.
