in lieu of land dedication during the plat approval process.
Mr. Tynes also asked Mr. Hill to review the Subdivision
Regulations.
In reference to the ordinance on the agenda for this meeting
concerning the dead ending of Monterrey and Durango, Mr.
Tynes had the following remarks: At the last P & Z meeting,
residents expressed concerns over the amount of traffic in
the area from the church. The church, although not within the
Town boundaries, would be in violation of the Master Plan as
well as the commercial and thoroughfare goals and objectives.
It is not located on a major collector road, and would have a
direct impact on a residential street. Mr. Tynes stated that
if the streets were to remain open to Trophy Club, it could
be setting a precedence for future areas around the perimeter
of Trophy Club.
