Mr. Brian McCall representing H. C. Joint Venture spoke to request a specific use permit and site plan approval for a mini -warehouse. Chairman Bobby Glass opened the Public Hearing. Mr. George J. Anderson of 307 E. Coats, Allen, Texas, spoke in favor of the project but he had some concerns about the mini -warehouse project he wanted answered. Some of the questions were: 1. He wanted to know if the development of the mini -warehouses will increase the property value or decrease the value of his property? 2. He questioned if this area would still remain as a low intensity use area after this development? 3. Is Mr. McCall going to pave the streets on the north and east side of the structure? 4. Will the concrete curbs and gutters, storm drainage, etc. be the responsibility of Mr. McCall? Mr. Bill Petty said that each property owner is responsible for his portion of the roadway, in regards to guttering, curbing and storm drainage. Mr. Petty informed the Commission that they were here to only approve the Zoning Request. The storm sewer, guttering and curbs, etc., will be discussed during the platting process. Chairman Bobby Glass closed the Public Hearing. ALLEN PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION rt AUGUST 8, 1985 PAGE THREE Public Hearing H. C. Joint Venture (Continued) (Agenda Item III) Mr. Petty clarified that in order for the Specific Use Permit to be approved the Site Plan must also be approved. The Commission must approve both the Site Plan and the Specific Use Permit for the development to be approved. Commission was concerned with the possibility of the aban- donment of Boyd Street. The Site Plan that was submitted by Mr. McCall would have to include Boyd Street as being developed. The access to his property would also have to come from Boyd Street. MOTION: Upon a motion by Commissioner Garcia and seconded by Commissioner Armand, Commission voted 7 FOR and 0 AGAINST to Table Agenda Item III. Public Hearing The Cambridge Corporation (Agenda Item IV) Chairman Bobby Glass read the agenda item into the record as follows: "Consider a request by Myles H. Minton of The Cambridge Companies Development Corporation, being approximately 21.2474 acres of land situated in Collin County, Texas, in the David Wetzel Survey, Abstract No. 977, and the William Perrin Survey, Abstract No. 708, and being a resurvey of a part of a called 30.26 acre tract of land described in two tracts in a deed from Gentry T. Jones, et ux, to Milton V. Garney, et al, as recorded in Volume 585, Page 116 and Volume 591, Page 159 of Collin County Deed Records. The request is to change the present zoning of A -O (Agriculture -Open Space) to 9.6 acres zoned FP -O (Flood Plain -Office), and 11.6474 acres zoned FP -SC (Flood Plain -Shopping Center), further described as being the southwest and southeast corners of F.M. 2170 and Highway 5." Mr. Myles H. Minton, Cambridge Properties, appeared before the Commission. This Zoning Request of 12.18 acres - FP -SC & 9.058 acres - FP -Office does not coincide with Agenda Item Description in that the Agenda Description reflects to the Southeast and Southwest corners of 2170 and Highway 5 as shown on developer's submission. The shopping center size of roughly 12 acres is in line with neighborhood shopping centers opposed to a community or regional site that would be 20-50 acres. II ALLEN PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION AUGUST 8, 1985 PAGE FOUR Public Hearing The Cambridge Corporation (Continued) (Agenda Item IV) Mr. Myles Minton proposed to limit the height of the offices to one story. A Traffic Impact Study was presented by PAWA, Winklemann. Chairman Bobby Glass closed the public hearing with no one speaking for or against this agenda item. The Commission discussed the traffic impact to this area and Mr. Petty informed Commission that they were only to consider the zoning at this time. Commissioner Armand said he would like to _restrict the Flood Plain -Office area to one story. MOTION: Upon a motion by Commissioner Pennington and seconded by Commissioner Armand, Commission voted 7 FOR and 0 AGAINST to approve as amended. The motion carried. The following findings were read into the record: 1. The zoning is compatible with adjacent land uses. 2. The Shopping Center zoning at this intersection is appropriate and conforms with the Comprehensive Plan. 3. Although the Comprehensive Plan calls for multi -family in this tract, the Office Zoning is a more acceptable use and should lessen the traffic impact on Jupiter and on F.M. 2170. 4. Being that this is Flood Plain -Shopping Center and Flood Plain -Office zoning, it does correspond with our wishes not to invade the Flood Plain for any development. Amended Plat Eagle Plaza Addition (Agenda Item V) Chairman Bobby Glass read the agenda item into the record as follows: "Consider amended Plat approval by CGM Engineering for Eagle Plaza Shopping Center. This is a tract of land situated in the David Wetzel Survey, Abstract No. 977 and being an amended plat of the Eagle Plaza Shopping Center Addition as recorded in Cabinet "D," Page 133, Collin County Deed Records of Collin County, Texas, ALLEN PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION AUGUST 8, 1985 PAGE FIVE Amended Plat Eagle Plaza Addition (Agenda Item V) and further described as being south of FM 2170, and east of Jupiter Road." Mr. John Carpenter of CGM Engineering is requesting to incorporate Eagle Plaza II to the replat of Eagle Plaza I. Mr. Petty commented that we have approved a Site Plan on this corner. Staff is agreeable to approval of Final Plat. MOTION: Upon a motion by Commissioner Wilson, and seconded by Commissioner Garcia, Commission voted 7 FOR and 0 AGAINST to approve Agenda Item V as presented. Other Business Mr. Petty commented briefly about the Seminar some of the Commission attended for Zoning. The Second Phase of that Seminar is coming up later in August and if anyone is inter- ested please contact Bill. The Seminar is scheduled for Friday, August 23, 1985. Mr. Petty encourages all of the Commission to attend if they can. Mr. Petty emphasized that there is a lot of good information to be obtained by attending this Seminar. Mr. Petty handed out the brochures that were prepared for the Workshop that is scheduled for Wednesday, August 14, 1985 at 7:30 P.M.

This submission is severly modified from the PD.
