Don Bass
(Agenda Item V)
Chairman Pendleton read the agenda item into the minutes as
follows:
"Public Hearing - Zoning request on approximately 50 acres
situated in the Peter Fisher Survey, Abstract No. 324, Collin
County, Texas. Further described as being part of the tract
of land as described in a deed to L.C. Richards as recorded
in Volume 291, Page 176, Deed Records, Collin County, Texas,
and further described as being located west of Timberbend
Addition, south of Reed School and Reed Park, and east of
the Fountain Park Addition. This request is being made by
Bass Development to change zoning from R2 (Residential) to
R5 (Residential) with voluntary Deed Restrictions to establish
minimum house size to 1600 sq, ft."
Don Bass, of Bass Development, presented the request to the
Commission. He stated that one of the major problems with this site
is that they are resolving a major storm drainage problem for all
the rest of the land. He also stated that when all engineering is
done it is a possibility that they may have to do some work down on
F.M. 2170 in the way of culverts.

Public Hearing
Don Bass
Cont.
Chairman Pendleton opened the public hearing.
Mr. Charles Moore, of 921 Autumn Lake, spoke at the public
hearing. He had some questions to ask Don Bass. He wanted to
know how he was going to handle the drainage problem. Mr. Bass
stated that it would be opened. Mr. Moore also stated that he
thought we needed a little more egress and ingress on the property
for emergency purposes. He also added that he would like to
see some 1,800 sq. ft. houses an the west side and 1,600 sq. ft.
houses on the east - he would like some transition.
With no one else wishing to speak before the Commission on
this request, Chairman Pendleton closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Pennington asked Mr. Bass if there was going to
be a mix of sizes of the homes. Mr. Bass said there would be
a mix, but there would be few that would be of the minimum size.
Commissioner Pennington also asked Mr. Bass about the possibility
of putting in the deed restrictions the mixing of house sizes.
Bill Petty, Director of Community Development, spoke before
the Commission about this development. He stated that we were
only looking at the use of the land, and not thinking about the
lay out of streets and lots at this time. This is only a zoning
request. Mr. Petty briefed the Commission on the history of
the property. When it was first annexed into the City, it
was zoned R-2. The property to the east and west is R-5, with
the exception of a few houses, and to insure the development as
seen in both sides, Mr. Bass has volunteered to deed restrict
with the minimum of 1,600 sq. ft. on all houses.
Chairman Pendleton stated to Mr. Moore, that the drainage
would be handled at the time of platting, and would probably be
more enhanced than it is now.
MOTION: Upon a motion by Commissioner Wilson and seconded by
Commissioner Garcia, the Commission voted 7-0 to approve
Agenda Item No. V as submitted. The motion carried.
Public Hearing
tgma, inc. (Agenda Item VI)
Chairman Pendleton read the agenda item into the minutes as

Public Hearing
tgma, Inc. cont.
"Public Hearing - Consider a site plan for a shopping center
development on 3.2171 acres by tgma, Inc.
This site plan being a tract of land, Tract 10, owned by
Sherwood E. Blount, Jr. Trustee, situated in the William
Perrin Survey, Abstract No. 708 and the Rufus Sewell Survey,
Abstract No. 875, City of Allen, Collin County, Texas. Further
described as being located at the intersection of the easterly
line of State Highway 5, (a 100 foot right of way), and the
southerly line of Bethany Road (a 120 foot right of way).
This property is currently zoned PD "SC" No. 4."
Mr. Tom Hutch came before the Commission to withdraw the request
to consider the site plan until a later date.
Mr. Hutch was advised that the agenda item was to hold a
public hearing on the request and that if the request was withdrawn,
the project would have to be resubmitted if further consideration
was sought.
MOTION: Upon a motion by Commissioner Armand and seconded by
Commissioner Wilson, the Commission voted 7-0 to allow
the proponent to withdraw his request on Agenda Item
No. VI. The motion carried.
Preliminary Plat
Allen Towne Center (Agenda Item VII)
Chairman Pendleton read the agenda item into the minutes
as follows:
"Consider a preliminary plat for a shopping center development
on 9.8881 acre tract of land situated in the Peter Wetzel
Survey, Abstract No. 990, in the City of Allen, Collin County,
Texas. This request is made by Stone -Lewis Companies.

Mr. Doug Grady, Vice President of Stone -Lewis Development
Corporation, presented the plat to the Commission. He stated that
Winn Dixie would be building a 36,000 sq. ft. grocery store
facing Highwav 5.

Preliminary Plat
Allen Towne Center Cont.
The Commission was concerned with the F.M. 2170 driveway
closest to the intersection. The driveway is 285 feet from the
street intersection - but only 90 feet from the property line,
and Mr. Grady saw no danger in the driveway. Bill Petty spoke
to the Commission about the development. Mr. Petty stated that
staff did not see why tract 5 needed two driveways onto Highway
5. Bill also stated that we would be trading some right-of-way
for realignment of Jupiter.
Mr. Grady stated that Bob Shawn wanted to eliminate the use
of the culverts under the driveways. Mr. Petty mentioned another
item of disagreement, the City of Allen requires sidewalks on
both sides of new streets. What staff is recommending is that the
street on the east side be required to have at least one sidewalk.
Mr. Petty is expecting the developer to request a variance on this,
but staff is recommending that they have at least one sidewalk on
the school side.
Chairman Pendleton stated that we might want the curb cut on
the corner of F.M. 2170 to exclusively be used for traffic going in
a westerly direction.
Mr. John F. Reglin, of PAWA Winkelmann 6 Associates, Inc. also
spoke on the behalf of Stone -Lewis Comanies.
MOTION: Upon a motion by Commissioner Hoover and seconded by
Commissioner Armand, the Commission voted six (6) for
and one (1) against, with the opposing voted being
Chairman Pendleton, to approve the preliminary plat with
amendments. The motion carried.
Amendments:
(1) The possibility of excluding the sidewalk on the
west side of Jupiter.
(2) Westerly most exit on F.M. 2170 make that a forced
turn to the west.
(3) Ommission of the northerly most entrance onto tract
5.
