This tract of land is a portion of the Witsaul Fisher Survey, Abstract No. 323, Collin County, Texas, being part of that tract of land conveyed by deed to Omni Homes, Inc. to deed Volume 1795, Page 688, Collin County Deed Records, and also being part of a 97.72 acre tract conveyed to First Savings Association, McKinney, from Freedom Financial Corporation, as recorded in Volume 2024, Page 380 of the Deed Records of Collin County, and also being part of a 13.550 acre tract of land conveyed to Naji 0. Hamideh, et al from Vernon E. Day, et ux, as recorded in Volume 2025, Page 346 of the Deed Records of Collin County, and being more particularly described as being the northeast corner of F.M. 2170 and Malone Rd." Mr. Craig Curry, The Nelson Corporation, presented the proposal to the Commission. They are requesting "PD" Planned Development zoning on 94 acres of land. This submission would amend PD 29. He stated that the local retail zoning in this PD at the northeast corner of F.M. 2170 and Malone Road is under separate ownership from the portion in this submission. The proponent is in the process of annexation of the eastern section of this proposal adjacent to Rock Ridge Road. ME ALLEN PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION MAY 8, 1986 Page Three Public Hearing Fairhaven Village (Cont.) (Agenda Item IV) Mr. Curry discussed the extension of F.M. 2551. Mr. Petty stated that F.M. 2551 will end at F.M. 2170 and that portion of the roadway north of F.M. 2170 will be a four -lane divided city thoroughfare. Proponents are asking for a limitation on the 66.6 gross acres of a maximum of 240 units, or 3.6 dwelling units per acre. They have designated a tract that would be dedicated for a park consisting of 4.5 acres. They are also showing a private common area of at least one acre. This would possibly include a club and a pool. He stated that he understood that the eastern side of the right-of-way on Rock Ridge Road would be the dividing line between the two cities. Mr. Curry continued that the proponent has suggested shopping center zoning on 5.5 acres with a buffer of 9.7 acres of multi -family. He stated that he was aware that the land plan submitted is not in accordance with the City's Comprehensive Plan; however, the alignment that they are showing of Rock Ridge Road is in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Curry discussed the approved zoning in this neighborhood district, and suggested a workshop session would be appropriate to resolve any problems with this submission. Chairman Glass opened the public hearing. The following persons spoke either FOR or OPPOSED to this submission: Mr. Robert Poster Superintendent, Lovejoy ISD Myrna St. George 626 Rock Ridge Road Tom Moran 219 Rock Ridge Road Roy O'Neal #34 Forest Grove Estates Pam Ferris t 2301 Exchange Parkway Jim Locke on behalf of the developer Craig Curry The Nelson Corporation im C ALLEN PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION MAY 8, 1986 Public Hearing Fairhaven Village (Cont.) Glen Funaiock 217 Rock Ridge Road Don Johnson 619 Meadow Lane Chairman Glass closed the public hearing. Page Four (Agenda Item IV) Mr. Petty addressed the Commission and discussed the school/ park site. He stated the City of Allen needs to be made aware by LISD of their desire for a location for the school site. He stated the plan was to acquire an additional five acres to the north of this property if this is in fact the location required for a school. Mr. Petty further stated that the alignment of the road has been planned since 1978 by the City's Comprehensive Plan and the Collin County thoroughfare plan. He stated the center of the road will be the dividing line between the two cities. In regard to the notification of property owners surrounding this proposal, the City tax roll was used. Any others could be notified if we had access to the names and addresses. Superintendent Puster was advised in the hope that he would help with this notification. He stated that the proposal before the Commission at this time is not a recommendation by staff. Mr. Petty discussed the uses as shown in the land use plan. He stated it would be best if the 13 -acre retail tract at Malone could be moved over to Rock Ridge Road. Consideration needs to be given to the retail tract shown at Exchange Parkway. He added that the multi -family would not be allowed unless the shopping center were actually approved for the corner location at Rock Ridge Road and F.M. 2170. Mr. Tom Keener advised the Commission of his discussions with the developer in December, 1985. Chairman Glass stated that the 13 acres of local retail at Malone will probably remain local retail and not be upgraded to shopping center. He added further that site plan approval would be required prior to the development of this tract. He stated that he was not ready to go into a workshop session until the request is more closely aligned with the Comprehensive Plan as far as the Commercial, Multi -family, etc., are concerned. Mr. Curry stated that they do not own the 13 -acre commercial tract. 91 i ALLEN PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION MAY 8, 1986 Public Hearing Fairhaven Village (Cont.) Page Five (Agenda Item IV) Chairman Glass stated that Malone Road would not become a secondary thoroughfare because of the existing plat filed north of the subject property. He stated that the current zoning on this property is exactly what the Comprehensive Plan calls for. Commissioner Garcia and Commissioner Akin expressed opposition to this request in regard to the second shopping center area. Mr. Curry requested this submission be tabled. Chairman Glass stated he felt that the proponent has ignored staff input in this matter. Commissioner Armand stated the road will probably need to go where it is shown. If a shopping center is approved for the southeast corner of this property, then the multi -family would be appropriate. He was concerned with the lack of buffering shown for the ranchette homes. Commissioner Akin stated he feels the ranchettes have a buffering effect of their own. MOTION: Upon a motion by Commissioner Akin and a second by Commissioner Armand, Commission voted 7 FOR and 0 OPPOSED to table Agenda Item IV until such time as the developer is able to make a request more in line with what the Commission has requested. The motion carried. Chairman Glass advised the audience that this agenda item will be placed on each agenda until such time as a Commissioner chooses to remove it from the table. Mr. Petty stated further that staff will probably have information as to the intent to remove it from the table and interested parties could call the office at any time to request information concerning the request. Zoning Request Folsom Investments (Agenda Item V) Chairman Glass read the agenda item into the record as follows: "Consider request by Mr. J. T. Dunkin representing Mr. Denny Holman of Folsom Investments and Mr. David Whisenant to rezone 423.38 acres of land from "AO" Agriculture -Open Space to "FP -PD" Flood Plain Planned t Development including "SC" Shopping Center, "0" Office, "MF" Multi -family, and "R" Residential, on the following five tracts of land: 92 ALLEN PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION MAY 8, 1986 Page Six Zoning Request Folsom Investments (cont.) (Agenda Item V) "1. Being 160.770 acres in the Mary Standifer Survey, Abstract No. 812, Collin County, Texas; 2. Being 64.563 acres in the Catherine Parsons Survey, Abstract No. 711, Collin County, Texas; 3. Being 91.887 acres in the Henry Brandenburg Survey, Abstract No. 110, Collin County, Texas; 4. Being 100.035 acres in the Henry Brandenburg Survey, Abstract No. 110, and the J. W. Parsons Survey, Abstract No. 705, Collin County, Texas; 5. Being 6.129 acres in the Catherine Parsons Survey, Abstract No. 711, Collin County, Texas." Mr. J. T. Dunkin presented the new request to the Commission. He stated he would be presenting a new traffic study this evening. The shopping center area has been decreased by approximately 10.7 acres by the placement of the multi-family on the southern side of the shopping center. He presented the other changes they had made to the plan. The church tract was not moved to a location adjacent to the shopping center, but rather placed at the inter- section because of the surrounding zoning in this location. As to the open space, Mr. Holman has decided to maintain the open space requirement in a private type of relationship to the property. It will be in and adjacent to the flood fringe area. They have requested open space be designated in the multi-family tracts to meet a portion of the requirement. On the Whisenant property, proponents are showing a public park. Mr. Gary Yost, Barton-Aschman, presented the revised traffic study. Two new booklets (one for each property owner) were distributed at this time. Chairman Glass asked if this study would be submitted to the Council of Governments. Mr. Keener stated the original study had been submitted for review. Chairman Glass requested that this new study be submitted also. Commissioner Garcia asked if the height regulations for the office tracts match the zoning ordinance requirements. Mr. Dunkin stated they had set a limit of two stories, or higher with additional setbacks. Commissioner Armand stated it was in concurrence with the Comprehensive Plan, citing page 46. There is not a maximum height limitation in this request. 93 ALLEN PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION MAY 8, 1986 Page Seven Zoning Request Folsom Investments (Cont.) (Agenda Item V) Commissioner Akin questioned staff in regard to the outparcel. Mr. Keener responded thatusing Office acreage or any other nonresidential use on this tract would be a violation of the Comprehensive Plan. He discussed the potential zoning of the outparcel in the northeast corner of Rowlett Road and Alma Drive. He stated that if Tract 4 is approved as Office, then there is nothing left in this Neighborhood District for Office or Multi- family, and since the Commercial is already beyond the suggested 15-20 acres, Tract 4 should be either low or medium density so that the outparcel can be zoned Office or Multi -family. Mr. Dunkin suggested using a mix of Office and Local Retail. Mr. Mark Thornton stated the open space plan for a 10 -acre park is acceptable to the City. Also, the open space adjacent to the flood fringe that is planned is acceptable. Chairman Glass stated that the Commission needed to decide if they are in agreement with the location of Rowlett Road, and if that is the appropriate location for an east/west thoroughfare. If so, it will need to be extended through to Custer Road. The consensus of the Commission was that this road was in a good location. Chairman Glass stated he would be in favor of waiting on a final decision in this matter until COG's review of the new traffic study is received. Mr. Jack Hatchell of Barton-Aschmann addressed the Commission in regard to the traffic study. Commissioner Armand expressed concern with the number of apartment units as shown in the plan. Mr. Dunkin stated that proponent would be willing to sell the Allen ISD property for a school site. He addressed the density question, and stated that they are in line with the intent of the Comprehensive Plan as far as density is concerned. Mr. Petty stated that the City Council had concern with the distribution of house sizes. He recommended that the maximum density and maximum units on the multi -family should be included in the submission. He added that one foot and 9 feet side yard requirements would be acceptable on the zero lot line homes. Staff reminded Commission that a decision is due on this submission by the June 26, 1986, meeting. MOTION: Upon a motion by Commissioner Armand and a second by Commissioner Akin, Commission voted 7 FOR and 0 OPPOSED to table Agenda Item V.

Mr. Kenny Hafner of Washington/Wallace Engineers presented this plat to the Commission. This is a 200 -unit apartment complex. Mr. Bill Petty stated that this plat agrees with the approved site plan on the property. Tie added that engineering has not been approved; however, there does not seem to be any problem. Approval of the plat should be contingent upon acceptance of engineering. Staff recommended that the plat not be filed until engineering is approved, and the private drive intersecting F.M. 2170 should be required to be filed with the City by plat for review and approval or denial of the location. This drive is not contained within this plat. He stated that Roaming Road is shown in a proper location.
