Preliminary Plat
Highland Meadows (Agenda Item III)
Chairman Garcia read the agenda item into the record as follows:
"Preliminary Plat - Consider preliminary plat approval of Highland Mead-
ows, a 30.006 tract of land, being part of the W. Perrin Survey, Abstract
#708, and the G. W. Ford Survey, Abstract #328 City of Allen, Collin
County, Texas, for WPC-Allen/Jupiter Limited Partnership; further
described as being located east of Jupiter Road and north of Cottonwood
Bend North Phase 1."
Mr. Keener stated that the preliminary plat is consistent with the zoning previ-
ously approved. The flood plain study indicates at this time that some lots may
be lost. The proponent and the City Engineer are reviewing the flood plain
study. Staff is requesting that the preliminary plat, if approved, be subject to
final engineering approval of the flood plain.
Mr. Jackson further discussed the layout of the streets and requested a consen-
sus of the Commission as to whether they approved the layout. The consensus
was that the layout is appropriate unless there are further problems with the
flood plain study.
The Commission discussed the alley to the south of this property and the fact that
it will be closed to Jupiter. It was confirmed that lot 3 in the northwest corner
will be protected by a traffic barrier along Jupiter, as required by zoning.
MOTION: Upon a motion by Commissioner Biggs and a second by Commissioner
Kelley, the Commission voted 5 FOR and 0 OPPOSED to approve the
preliminary plat for Highland Meadows, with the design and lots
subject to engineering approval of the flood plain study.
Other Business
Mr. Keener stated that there will be a public hearing at the next meeting to
consider a request for expansion by TaMol is Restaurant (previously El Rio).
Mr. Keener advised the Commission that the Comprehensive Plan is before the
City Council for review and a joint public hearing will be scheduled to consider its
adoption in the near future.
Chairman Garcia requested that staff provide quarterly reports on TaMolli's to
ensure that they are consistent with the food/beverage ratio requirement.
