follows:
"Public Hearing to consider a request to establish perma-
nent zoning of PD (Planned Development) on approximately
145 acres of land located west of U.S. 75 and south of

Charles Forbes, the property owner, spoke before the Council

ment on 145± acres of land out of the Jonathan Phillips Survey,
Abstract No. 719 and the G.W. Estes Survey, Abstract No. 301,
located west of U.S. 75 and south of Shelby Drive.

developed.
Ralph Kelman, with Environmental Space Design, presented to
and spoke before the Council on the concept plan for the planned

Public Hearing: Request to Establish
PD Zoning on 145± Acres
Charles Forbes (Agenda Item III -A)
Mr. Bill Petty, Director of Community Development, advised
the Council that the city staff had no comments on this develop-
ment at this time and made reference to the Planning and Zoning
Commission recommendations.
The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their regular
meeting of April 12, 1984, recommended to the Council that the
request for permanent zoning of planned development be approved
with modifications at the time of platting to interlink other
roadways within the development to maintain a traffic service
level C on Shelby Drive.
The Council discussed with Mr. Forbes and Mr. Kelman the
right-of-way for the southern proposed thoroughfare of this
development; traffic patterns on Shelby Drive; the floor area
ratio of the office buildings being 1.33.1; the definition of
"light fabrication" in the use regulations; the fact that the
use regulations had left out information and were not detailed
enough, specifically for the Site B "Retail Use"; statistics of
the traffic study on this property done by Barton-Aschman
Associates, Inc.; and the proposed heights of the buildings
being too tall.
Shelton Johnson of Barton-Aschman Associates, Inc., spoke
before the Council on the prepared traffic survey and how the
statistics were prepared.
There was considerable discussion on the floor area ratio
being too high and the use regulations not being detailed enough.
MOTION: Upon a motion made by Mayor Pro Tem Farmer and seconded
by Councilman Wolfe, the Council voted 6 - 0 to table
this request until the Council meeting of June 7th,
1984, in light of the three basic comments that have
been made in the discussions, those being for (1) clar-
ification of the specific delineation of what is being
requested; (2) floor area ratio; and (3) in a general
sense, an acknowledgement that there are options avail-
able at later points to deal with the size and design
of streets to serve the area. The motion carried.
The Council directed that the city staff also provide some
information regarding how the city arrived at the existing floor
area ratio used in the zoning ordinance and is it a viable
figure to use now and for the future and how it related back to
the traffic impact.

of Allen Heights Drive."
Mr. Joel Goldsteen, representing the property owner,
presented to and spoke before the Council on the site plan for
planned development of the 33 acres, located north of Exchange
Parkway at the intersection of Allen Heights Drive.
Mr. Goldsteen reviewed the proposed site plan and advised
that this property was located in the McKinney School District
and that a large amount of property from this development would
be used for the 120' right-of-way for the extension of Allen
Heights Drive north of Exchange Parkway.

Public Hearing: Request for PD Zoning
on 33 Acres
Joel Goldsteen (cont'd) (Agenda Item III -B)
and
Ordinance No. 509-5-84: PD No. 25
Bill Petty, Director of Community Development, advised of
the Planning. and. Zoning Commission's recommendation on this
request and explained the construction of Allen Heights Drive,
and that two lanes of the roadway would not be completed on the
portion of land located on the Buck Holmes' property, located
at the northwest corner of Exchange Parkway and Allen Heights
Drive.
The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their regular meet-
ing of April 12, 1984, recommended to the City Council approval
of the request with the stipulation that completion of four (4)
of the six (6) lanes of Allen Heights be constructed prior to
any development and that a Homeowners' Association be estab-
lished for the preservation of the park area.
Mayor Rodenbaugh opened the public hearing. No one appeared
to speak either for or against this request. Mayor Rodenbaugh
closed the public hearing.
There was considerable discussion by the Council on the
construction of the four lanes of roadway of Allen Heights
Drive, the creation of a homeowners' association to maintain the
open space and park area; the alignment of Allen Heights Drive
crossing the intersection with Exchange Parkway; how the resi-
dential offices would appear; the placement of the park site in
this development, the landscaping and irrigation of the park
site, landscaping along the thoroughfare; and making a change
in the use regulations on the number of dwelling units per acre
for the single family residential district (12,000 sq. ft. lots)
from 3.0 to 2.0 as shown on the site plan.
There was further discussion by the Council on the developer
working with the property owner to see if the entire four lanes
of Allen Heights can be completed from Exchange Parkway and
whether the roads need to be discussed at this time or at the
platting process.
Mr. Petty reviewed with the Council again that the Planning
and Zoning Commission's recommendation did not include the two
lanes of Allen Heights Drive which would fall on the Holmes'
property, but they did recognize that those two lanes would be
put in at the time that the property did develop, along with
the two northern lanes of Exchange Parkway.
MOTION: Upon a motion made by Councilman McClure and seconded
by Councilman Womack, the Council voted 6 - 0 to approve
the request for permanent zoning of Planned Development
on the 33 acres of land in accordance with the recom-
mendations of the Planning and Zoning Commission, as
stated; to adopt Ordinance No. 509-5-84, as captioned
previously; and that the developer work with the
property owner on the northwest corner to see if the
entire four lanes of Allen Heights can be developed

Discussion of the
Development Criteria Used
On Zoning Requests
(Agenda Item V -C)
Mayor Rodenbaugh reminded the Council of some workshops
held by the Council and the Planning and Zoning Commission
some 18 months ago regarding setting goals and criteria to
be considered on zoning issues.
Mayor Rodenbaugh advised the Council that there seems
to be some misunderstanding as to the use of the develop-
ment criteria proposed by the Council and the Planning and
Zoning Commission on the percentages to be used on the
house sizes as discussed at the last workshop held on
December 7, 1982.
Mayor Rodenbaugh advised that he felt that the figures
would probably change or be revised with the completion of the
comprehensive plan, however, until that time, he is
proposing that a determination be made as to what figures
should be used.
There was considerable discussion by the Council on what
the percentages proposed by the Council and the Commission
represented; the validity of those numbers now; whether
these percentages should be used and how; not making an
issue of these percentages; that the issue is that developers
continually advise that they are meeting the city's criteria
and just what does that mean; and what problem will be resolved
by acting on this item.
MOTION: A motion was made by Councilman Womack and seconded by
Councilman Wolfe that as a part of the process of
examining planned developments and looking at
the house sizes as only one area of the deliberation,
the Planning and Zoning Commission should continue to
use the basis that they have been using as a
guideline in looking at house sizes. The
Council voted four(4) for and two(2) opposed, with
Mayor Pro Tem Farmer and Councilman Paxton
casting the negative votes. The motion carried.
It was suggested by Councilman Wolfe, and concurred
by Council, that a joint meeting be held between the Council
and the Planning & Zoning Commission as soon as possible
to review the entire planned development process.

in this project.
Mr. Thorton also presented a flow chart of the action plan
and how it is to proceed.
The Council discussed with Mr. Thornton the timing of this
project as to exact dates the plan will go forward and for
completion; not maintaining a standing committee to review and
update the plan, but using the Parks and Recreation Board
to follow through with that portion; and the feelings for linear
parks for now and the future.
MOTION: Upon a motion made by Councilman Wolfe and seconded
by Councilman McClure, the Council voted 6 - 0 to
approve the action plan for the Rowlett Creek Corridor
Study as presented by the city staff per the recom-
mendations as discussed by the City Council. The
motion carried.

City Manager Jon McCarty advised the Council of the proposed
agreement between the City of Allen and Collin County regarding
the expenditure of county funds for road improvements on

building. The final engineering and plans and specifications
for the plant would be completed in the month of November, with
contract letting to be done soon after that. Mr. McCarty advised
that the cost of the plant will be paid with bond funds from the
North Texas Municipal Water District.
However, construction of the interceptor lines will be the
responsibility of the various participating cities in contract
with the North Texas Municipal Water District.
Mr. McCarty advised that a draft contract had been prepared,
had been reviewed by staff, and a second draft contract was
being brought forth. There would be a meeting held in June
by the NTMWD and the Council would be encouraged to attend as
they will be discussing the contract for the interceptor
lines and the costs for the lines.
Mr. McCarty reviewed for the Council the locations of the
existing treatment plants in Plano and McKinney, the location
of the proposed lines and explained the flow of the lines.

the formation of the Allen Industrial Development Foundation,
which is a group organized by the Industrial Committee of the

Industrial Committee had seen a need in the city for small
tracts of land for development of small industrial enterprises.
The Foundation was formed to seek out land in smaller tracts
for the smaller enterprises that employ from 1 to 25 employees.
Mr. McCarty advised that he serves on both bodies and
that the foundation has recently entered into a contract to
purchase some 13 acres of land located south of Jupiter Road
Bridge and east of Jupiter Road, and zoned Light Industrial.
They are now working to put together a development package
for this land which will be financed by participation from
the three banks in town.
