H. Parliamentary Motions and Precedence
1. Discussion of Items
Town Council Page 16 of 178 Meeting Date: Monday,March 3, 2014
Each agenda item shall be considered open for discussion when that item is
announced by the Chairman/Mayor. If a member wishes to challenge an agenda
item on the basis that the item is not a proper topic for Council discussion, such
member shall state that he or she “objects to the consideration of the question”. This
action does not require a second. When the objection is made, the Chairman/Mayor
shall immediately call the question: “Will the assembly consider this question?” If 2/3
of the members vote “no”, the question cannot be introduced. An objection to
consideration of a question must be made when the item is first introduced and before
it has been debated. A motion for appropriate action shall be made after discussion of
an item has been concluded.
2. Motions
After obtaining the floor a motion can be made before the assembly on the particular
subject of discussion. A “Second” to the motion must be made by another Town
Council member within a reasonable but brief time period. Without a “second” the
motion dies. No main motion can be made when another motion is pending.
3. Withdrawal of Motions
A motion may be withdrawn, or modified, by its mover without asking permission until
the motion has been stated by the Chairman/Mayor. If the mover modifies his motion,

Re: Home Firearms Safety Course
Town Council Meeting, Monday, March 3, 2014
______________________________________________________________________________
Agenda Item:
Discussion regarding a proposed Home Firearms Safety Program, a Course for residents, and a
fee for the Course
Explanation:
It has been suggested that the Department, in addition to providing the Concealed Handgun
Licensing (CHL) course, provide a Home Firearms Safety course to residents, employees and
their families. Chief Kniffen is certified to teach the National Rifle Association Home Firearms
Safety Course and two local volunteers are interested in assisting.
The course outline specifies the goal of the course is, “To teach the basic knowledge and skills,
and to explain the attitude necessary for safe handling and storage of guns in the home.” While
these topics are covered in the CHL class, some have firearms in the home but do not have an
interest in attending the CHL class. The Home Firearms Safety Course would provide this
information and training to those living in homes where firearms are kept but who have no
interest or are not old enough to obtain a CHL.
The course would be offered quarterly, if there was sufficient interest, and would be open,
initially, to residents and their children age 12 or older. It would be limited to 20 persons per
class. This is a non-shooting course but the student text and training materials must be
obtained from the NRA. The course will be four hours and we have tentatively scheduled the
first one for the 22nd of March. This course would augment our efforts to make firearms safety
a priority among our residents. In order to cover the cost of the materials and time involved, a
fee of $15 per person is recommended

them;
WHEREAS, the efforts of our community organizations, complimented by the
efforts of the North Texas Poison Center have reduced childhood poisonings in Trophy

programming, immediate, accessible emergency information to save lives of victims of
poison-related emergencies, and;

household product or medicine by mistake.
NOW THEREFORE, I Connie White, Mayor of the Town of Trophy Club, do
hereby proclaim the week of March 16-22, 2014, as Poison Prevention Week in this
Town. Further, I direct the appropriate agencies in our local government to continue

REGULAR SESSION
10. Presentation by Jennifer McKnight regarding increased water capacity for off -site water improvements
(Fort Worth 48 inch transmission line project); consider and take appropriate action regarding the same.
Trophy Club Municipal Utility District No. 1 District Manager, Jennifer McKnight, gave a brief presentation on the
proposed 48” water line upgrade project initiated by Fort Worth. Currently, Trophy Club MUD No. 1 has a single
feed line from Fort Worth and the upgrade would increase capacity by 2.4 million gallons. The estimated project
cost is approximately $16 million (multi-city project) and Trophy Club MUD No. 1 estimated the Trophy Club
portion would cost $638,359 (Trophy Club’s share in the first phase). If a decision is made to move forward, the
contract must be signed in April.
No action taken.
11. Consider and take appropriate action regarding a Resolution of the Town Council relating to the Giving of
Notice of Intention to issue Town of Trophy Club, Texas Combination Tax and Revenue Certificates of
Obligation, Series 2014 for various costs associated with construction of municipal facilities; and providing
an effective date.
Town Council Page 29 of 178 Meeting Date: Monday,March 3, 2014
This resolution is the next step in regards to the financial plan presented a couple years ago that allows for debt
issuance to support the purchase of land and construction of municipal facilities. Current interest rates are low and
projections indicate rates will go up in the near future. In FY2014, total proposed debt issuance is $9.5 million, and
the remainder of $4.7 million would be considered in FY2015. Issuing this debt would not impact the tax rate.
♦ Jim Parrow, 8 Brookfield Court addressed the Council in favor of a new police department facility; however,
does not feel we need a new Town Hall. Mr. Parrow expressed interest in seeing the cost of the land for the
police facility and the cost of building a police facility verses cost for the land for a Town Hall and the cost of
building a Town Hall.
♦ Nick Sanders, 7 Hayes Court addressed the Council regarding the possibility of a Civic Center being included in
the future. Mr. Sanders is unclear about how the term “civic center” is defined as well as inquiring as to why
the Town is issuing Certificates of Obligation instead of a bond resolution. Mr. Sanders is looking for additional
information in regards to the debt issued and what will be built.
The Mayor read the following letter into record:
♦ Susan and Dave Edstrom, 269 OakHill Drive
We would like our comments read into the public record, not simply made a part of the record but as by
established rules, READ into the record.
We are not in favor of the Town issuing $9.5 million in certificates of obligation. This far exceeds the debt we
expect any elected official to make on our behalf when we are not under an emergency order of any type.
What you are suggesting is to put us in debt to the tune of 9.5 million dollars for plans that have yet to be seen
or discussed in public and according to the staff report, there would be "more to come" in the form of bonds to
complete the project. Once you have the 9.5 million, would we not be hard pressed at that point to prevent
anything from moving forward?
As ardent supporters of a new police station, we support the use of COs for purchase of the land for the POLICE
DEPARTMENT. We cannot, however, support plans for unseen, not yet discussed Town Hall or Civic Center. We
think it is incumbent upon council and staff to provide more information on the plans and bring this to a vote of
the residents in the form of a bond. It requires resident input on the reason, design and cost. That is not
unreasonable and it does not mean people wouldn't ultimately support it. While officials are empowered to
make decisions, we do not believe they should be empowered to undertake debt without resident input and to
date, we have not seen any type of forum for that as of yet.
We can only assume discussions on the land purchase have been done under Executive Session and we fully
understand the need to keep the purchase negotiations under wraps and the need for those funds. That said,
we would only support funds being issued only for the amount of the land purchase. Council and staff should
then publicly seek input on the other items and the amount of the debt.
We support a new PD 100% and would serve on any bond committee. We do not support 9.5 million dollars in
CO debt to be undertaken for all of the reasons noted above. We ask that you amend the amount requested to
allow you to move forward with the land purchase and nothing else until residents are able to participate
openly in the process.
Motion made by Council Member Mayer, seconded by Council Member Rose, to approve Resolution 2014-05
Giving of Notice of Intention to issue Town of Trophy Club, Texas Combination Tax and Revenue Certificates of
Obligation, Series 2014 for various costs associated with construction of municipal facilities and providing an
effective date.
Motion made by Council Member Lamont, seconded by Council Member Shoffner to substitute the following for
the motion currently under discussion stating that a certificate of obligation be issued for $2.5 million to cover the
purchase of property for the current feasibility study and construction of a police and municipality facility within
the Town of Trophy Club and that two referendums be placed on the ballot to approve the building of the police
facility and town facility with a civic center. The cost of the two facilities should be determined prior to being
placed on the ballot.
Town Council Page 30 of 178 Meeting Date: Monday,March 3, 2014

Town Council Page 31 of 178 Meeting Date: Monday,March 3, 2014

Linebarger Goggan Blair & Sampson, LLP as the most qualified to provide Professional Municipal Court Account
Collection Services for the Trophy Club Municipal Court; and authorizing the Town Manager to negotiate and
execute a contract providing for a compensation arrangement as authorized by state law.

three (3) year term and two (2) Council Members for Place #1 and #2 to the Town Council for a three (3)

Agenda Item:
Consider and take appropriate action regarding the approval of an expenditure from the Court
Technology Fund for the purchase of the SunGard to Incode Interface Court software, including
the initial cost and associated yearly annual maintenance costs for each year thereafter that the
software is utilized.
Explanation:
At the February 3, 2014 Town Council meeting Town staff brought to Council’s attention an
overview of equipment and software needs, which included an upgrade to Court software.
Subsequently, the Town staff presented a funding plan for the equipment and software at the
February 17 Town Council meeting. The SunGard to Incode Interface Court software initial cost
is $13,440 with an annual maintenance cost of $1,600. Software benefit will provide are:
o Eliminate the need for officers to hand write citations which will reduce stop times
o Eliminate the need for court to hand enter the information into the court system
o Eliminate the need for police staff to hand enter the information to include racial profiling
and keep better record of citations issued by removing the possibility of human error when
entering the information
o Allow the ability to swipe the driver’s license which will auto populate into the system as
well as conduct an auto check through DPS driver’s license as well as TCIC/NCIC for warrants
and other information that might be a part of a person’s history.
o Dispatch will also be able to see the information on who the officer has stopped faster than
the current hand entry system
State law dictates the technological enhancements the Court Technology Fund may pay for. The
proposed software is an allowed use.

SUBJECT: Consider and take appropriate action to grant a Special Privilege
Request to the Trophy Club Women’s Club to hold two Community
Garage Sale Events in 2014 – May 3 and October 18. Applicant:
Heather Wick on behalf of Trophy Club Women’s Club
STAFF COMMENTS: On behalf of the Trophy Club Women’s Club, Ms. Wick is
requesting permission to hold two community-wide garage sale events in Trophy Club in
2014. The Women’s Club submitted a “Temporary Use Application” and after review
by the Special Event Committee it is determined that no Town permit or fee is

will occur. The Trophy Club Women’s Club is requesting that the event be allowed from

REQUEST: Consider a recommendation of approval of a revised Final Plat of
Neighborhood 7, Phase 3C, for the purpose of adding an easement to Lot 63,
Block L.
APPLICANT: Travis Clegg, Peloton Land Solutions on behalf of High Trophy
Development LLC
LOCATION: This property is located on the north side of Trophy Park Drive
between Chatswood Drive and Freedom Park (the dog park).
ZONING: Planned Development District No. 27 (PD-27). The 107 single family
residential lots on this plat are Lot Type 3 lots which is as required in PD-27.
LOT TYPE 3 DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS :
Minimum Lot Size: 8,400 square feet
Front Yard: 25-ft.
Rear Yard: 20-ft.
Side Yard: 5-ft.
Side Yard Adjacent to Street: 15-ft.
Minimum Lot Depth: 110-ft.
Minimum Lot Width: 70-ft. measured at Front Build Line
Minimum Lot Width adjacent to street: 80-ft. measured at Front Build Line
Minimum House Size: 1,800 sq. ft.
HISTORY: The Council approved the final plat for Neighborhood 7, Phase 3C
on November 4, 2013. A preconstruction meeting was held for this project on
November 11, 2013 and the project was released for infrastructure construction
to begin. As construction progressed, it was found that service from Oncor would
be needed for future electric service to a large lot north of this neighborhood.
Due to the distance from the road to the lot, Oncor is concerned that the electric
infrastructure being installed within Phase 3C may not handle the load. Oncor
requested Trophy Club provide an access from Oncor’s overhead lines on Corp

Town Council Page 49 of 178 Meeting Date: Monday,March 3, 2014
property just east of Phase 3C, to provide future service to the large lot north of
this phase of Neighborhood 7. The easement on Lot 63, Block L will allow access
to Oncor’s overhead line. As the final plat has not yet been filed in Denton
County, a revised final plat is brought back before the Council for approval.
The addition of an easement on Lot 63, Block L is the only change for
consideration on this plat and the addition of an easement does not affect the
infrastructure construction documents reviewed and approved by the Town
Engineer.
SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION: The plat recommended for approval by
the Planning and Zoning Commission on October 17, 2013, and approved by
Council on November 4, 2013, could be filed in Denton County and become a
matter of public record, and the easement needed along the northern boundary
of Lot 63, Block L could be filed by separate instrument. It is preferable,
however, that an easement be shown on a plat of record as opposed to filing by
separate instrument. The plat meets the Town’s Subdivision Rules and
Regulations and the requirements of PD-27 and staff asks for approval of the
revised Final Plat for Neighborhood 7, Phase 3C.
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION ACTION: On February 20, 2014, the
Planning and Zoning Commission heard this request and Commissioner
Sheridan made a motion to recommend approval of the revised plat for
Neighborhood 7, Phase 3C. Commissioner Allen seconded the motion and the
vote was unanimous.

PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
The Planning and Zoning Commission conducted a public hearing and
discussion and recommendation of this item on February 20, 2014. The final
motion by the Planning and Zoning Commission, with stipulations, passed by a
vote of 4 in favor (Senelly, Vowell, Sadley, Allen) and 3 opposed (Card, Reed,
Sheridan).
During the Public Hearing, the following residents spoke:
Jim Parrow, 8 Brookfield Ct., is in favor of completing PD-30 but wants it’s done
with retail and commercial to the max; townhomes and the minimum of rental
units. He had a concern regarding phasing. He is not in favor of the wording for
phasing, noting that “he can build 250 apartment units by site prepping,
permitting and prepping pads with no further construction of any retail facilities.”
Mr. Parrow stated that there used to be ratios and in the previous definition there
was the term “development” for non-residential and “construction” for residential.
He is wondering if “development” means getting permits, site prep and pads and
meanwhile 250 apartments can be built and put people in and collect rents on.
He would like “development” clarified. He also had a concern about the
maximum of 40 total additional apartment units. He would like it clarified that
Town Council Page 58 of 178 Meeting Date: Monday,March 3, 2014
there are 40 units total additional, not 40 units per each ground floor of buildings
B4, B5 and B7. Mr. Parrow’s three minutes were up at this point and he asked
for additional time, but the Planning & Zoning Commission does not allow time to
be given from one person to another. Mr. Parrow stated that his last concern
regarded 40-ft. maximum about the frontage.
Larry Mundy, Lot 119. He stated that when he figures the square footage, 350
apartments above the first floor would have been all 600 sq. ft. He made a
comparison to buying a coat at Macy’s. He thinks “retail-ready” is an absurd term
that means residential ready. He thinks that if the units are going to have sewer
lines for potential retail use maybe it ought to be required in the ordinance. He is
most disappointed by the loss of the FAR formula. That was a compromise that
helped get PD-30 to where it was two years ago because it said that a certain
amount of commercial space that was sales tax producing was going to be built
before apartments. That’s gone. Everybody loves the townhouses. In the
ordinance they are to be separately platted but there is no requirement they be
separately conveyed. There is no guarantee they will be individually owned.
They are not urban residential so they are not subject to any requirement that
anything else be built anywhere on the 26 acres first. They can start to be
developed the day after this ordinance passes. “In view of the history and just
logically,” Mr. Mundy thinks that’s, “pretty goofy”. He stated that at least they are
not garden apartments.
Robert Hoch, 245 Oak Hill Drive. He stated that he would like to commend
Planning and Zoning on their patience on this issue. “We need the retail.” (he
repeated that sentence 3 times) If I were developing it and I put in a bunch of
retail ready that I could use as apartments if I couldn’t market them, I could price
them where I couldn’t market them and they would be apartments. I can live with
townhomes, I just can’t live with retail ready apartments. We need retail. Thank
you.
Rhylan Rowe, 404 Skyline Drive. Been a Trophy Club resident since 2004. For
the record, I offered to yield my time to Mr. Parrow out of courtesy. I’ve seen it
done. I’ve watched this video while multi-tasking at work from the last meeting
so who knows if I remember it correctly or mixing it up with the Council meeting,
but if I’d known ahead of time that it was a rules violation obviously wouldn’t have
done it. I actually didn’t plan on saying anything. I emailed you guys earlier
today and I don’t want to beat you down with repeating everything there, but
since my name was on the orange card I guess I’d just like to emphasize that the
character of these proposed changes all de-emphasize the retail proportion of
the development. What the gentleman just said before me is spot on, that is how
we arrived at where we are today, so just consider that and keep that in mind. I
think that there are market forces here at work that are telling us what the
realities are about how this is going to get developed as planned and that you
consider that. Thank you for your service.
Town Council Page 59 of 178 Meeting Date: Monday,March 3, 2014
Roland Desjardins, 9 Fair Green Dr. I’ve been in this community over 33 years.
Not many of you can say that, I suspect. Some of you can. Back when I moved
into this community, there was a vision that Ben Hogan had when he wanted to
build this club and what this community meant. I’m here to tell you today that
vision is long gone. This community is not anything like what Ben Hogan
envisioned or even the original developers of this Town envisioned. It’s evolved.
And, there’s been good and bad parts of it. I’m here 33 years because I’ve loved
living in this community. But I’ve heard a lot of promises from different
organizations about what they want to do and quite honestly this organization is
doing exactly what they should be doing -- trying to maximize their benefits.
Financially they want what they can get out of it. For us as a community, we
want what we can get out of it and that’s not what these people want. They don’t
want that for what we want as a community. The fact of the matter is, asking for
additional apartments when it should be retail and nothing else is maximizing
their benefit and not us. Retail is what benefits this community; what draws
people to this community to buy homes. Saying that you are going to do retail
and then putting apartments in, do you really want apartments in our downtown
area? Do you really? I don’t. And, I have no assurances from this organization
that it will ever happen the way they are claiming it will. Thank you for your time.
Pearl Ford, 2 Spring Creek Ct., Trophy Club resident 33 years and 6 months. I
do want to thank the Commissioners for the time that they’ve put into this effort to
look at all of these pieces of paper and changes and so on. All I ask is that when
you make your decision, please, please, make your decision based on what is
good for the entire community not for some few that have vested interests or
special projects of their own. Thank you.
The Chairman closed the public hearing and the Commission then discussed the
amendment request for approximately two hours, including allowing residents to
speak again if they had additional questions or comments. The following
residents spoke:
Dave Abdulky, 16 Panorama Trail, It looks like there is compromise here. I think
that’s definitely been displayed. Exactly what that is, obviously you guys have to
decide what we are and aren’t willing to do, and then Council after that, but it’s a
promising sign to see this. I think everybody here knows it benefits our whole
community to have this done so let’s do what we can to get through this process
and get it rolling. Thank you.
Jarod King, 106 Panorama Ct., If we have 33 ground floor retail ready units, put
some kind of working in there where basically if we rent them out retail, once
retail, they can never go to apartments.
Chairman Senelly: I think as a practical matter that’s true anyway. Thank you.
Jim Parrow, 8 Brookfield Ct., Item 9 on specific building requirements for store
fronts, doors and ground floor facades, the previous document showed a
Town Council Page 60 of 178 Meeting Date: Monday,March 3, 2014
minimum of 40 sq. ft. and the current one shows a maximum of 40 sq. ft. That
appears to me, based on the retailers I’ve talked to, to be non-desirable for a
retail location. If you look at the original PD document approved in January
2012, it shows storefronts that were 60 to 80, sometimes ceiling to floor, glass
depending on what the building was being used for.
Chairman Senelly: We’ll ask our applicant to respond on the change from the
minimum to the maximum.
Mike Twichell: It’s very simple. The new energy code does not allow more than
40%.
Jim Parrow: For retail?
Mike Twichell: For anything.
Jim Parrow: Ok, well if there is a code that prohibits it, that’s different from what
was submitted originally.
Mike Twichell: It’s a whole new world.
Chairman Senelly: We keep changing building codes as time goes on…
Jim Parrow: Energy efficiency. Fair enough.
After further discussion, the following motion was made, which did not pass.
Commissioner Sadley made a motion, seconded by Chairman Senelly, to
approve the requested PD-30 amendments with the following stipulations:
1. Maximum 33 additional retail ready apartments that must be marketed for
retail for 18 months from issuance of a building permit.
2. If the 33 units are residential, they shall be a minimum of 1,200 sq. ft.
3. There shall be a separate POA for the Townhomes.
4. Phasing: retail/apartments Certificate of Occupancy issued at the same time
5. 85% masonry required on the front, rear and sides of townhomes.
The vote was 3 for the motion to approve (Sadley, Vowell, Senelly) and 4
against.
After approximately 30 minutes additional discussion, the following motion was
made:
Commissioner Allen, seconded by Vice Chairman Vowell made a motion to
approve the requested PD-30 amendment with the following stipulations:
1) 33 apartments allowed on the ground floor of buildings B4, B5 and B7.
Thirty-three (33) additional maximum for a total of 283 apartments allowed
in PD-30. The ground floor units shall be made retail-ready and shall be
marketed as retail for a period of two (2) years; the two (2) year timeframe to
commence at time of building permit issuance.
2) The 33 ground floor apartments shall be a minimum of 1,200 sq. ft.
3) Townhomes design standards: 7. F) i. and ii. Combine to state that a
minimum of 85% of the front, side and rear façade of Townhome
Residential shall be finished in masonry (brick, stone, cast stone, or glass
block). This adds a requirement of 85% masonry to the sides of the
buildings and removes stucco using the 3 step process as a masonry
option. Keep 7. F) iii. which allows EIFS at or above the second floor for
decorative trim, moldings, etc.
Town Council Page 61 of 178 Meeting Date: Monday,March 3, 2014
4) Parking Garage – no exposed concrete facing State Highway 114; exterior
side(s) facing State Highway 114 shall meet architectural standards of
adjacent hotel or office
5) Separate POA for Townhomes
6) Remove public facilities, municipal facilities and public safety facilities as
permitted uses.
7) Phasing: Area A and B shall be built simultaneously. Apartments cannot
be occupied until the retail is finished.
The vote was 4 for the motion to approve (Sadley, Vowell, Senelly, Allen) and 3
against (Reed, Sheridan, Card).

TOWN COUNCIL
STAFF REPORT
March 3, 2014
Samuel Beck Elementary School
Site Plan Approval
SP-14-026
Town Council Page 165 of 178 Meeting Date: Monday,March 3, 2014
REVIEW: NISD is proposing to add 7,374 sq. ft. to its existing Samuel Beck
Elementary school and additional sidewalks along the front and back of the site.
Twelve trees (48 caliper inches) will be added to the site.
Site Plan: Currently, the buildings on the site consist of 79,999 square feet.
The proposed addition of 7,374 square foot will bring the total square footage of
buildings to 87,373 sq. ft. The expansion will include constructing a new
kitchen, expanding the dining area, adding a new art room, and adding two
music rooms to the school. The Site Plan has been reviewed and meets the
requirements of the Town’s provisions.
Landscape Plan: The Town’s requirement for Non-Vehicular Open Space is
15%. The Landscape Plan indicates the District is devoting 35% of the site to
Non-Vehicular Open Space.
A tree survey has been provided. Nine trees are being removed from the site.
Of those, 4 trees, or 30 caliper inches, are protected and must be mitigated at
1.5” for each caliper inch removed; therefore, 45 caliper inches of trees are
required to fulfill mitigation. The applicant is planning to plant twelve 4-inch
caliper trees for a total of 48 caliper inches, which meets mitigation
requirements.
Per the Town’s landscape regulations, a total of 49 trees are required on the
site, of which 25 (50%) shall be in the front yard. With the addition of 12 trees,
the site will have a total of 111 trees, of which 42 are in the front yard. The
applicant is exceeding both the required number of trees on the site as well as
the required non-vehicular open space requirements.
Building Elevations: The Elevations have been reviewed and the new exterior
will match the current façade. – “all brick accent bands and masonry are to
match existing” – which meets the requirements of the Town’s masonry
provisions. The building heights are provided and meet the Town ordinances.
Parking: No changes.
Photometrics Plan/Signage: No lighting is being removed or added. No signs
or exterior lighting is being changed; therefore, no photometrics plan or signage
plan is required.
Sheet AS002/Site Details: A new dumpster pad will be poured. The
dumpsters will be located in the southeast corner of the site and shall provide
masonry screening walls and be gated as required by Town ordinance.
SUMMARY: Staff and the Town Engineer have reviewed the Beck Elementary
School Site Plan and find that it meets the Town’s ordinances. A memo of
Town Council Page 166 of 178 Meeting Date: Monday,March 3, 2014
approval from the Town Engineer for the engineering plans for this project is
included in this packet. Staff recommends approval.
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION: The Planning and Zoning
Commission heard this request on February 20, 2014. Commissioner Allen
made a motion recommending approval of the Site Plan for Beck Elementary
School. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Sheridan. The vote was
unanimous, 7-0.
