Mr. Tom Keener stated that staff had received a traffic study review on this submission from Mr. Michael Morris of the Council of Governments (COG). This review was presented to the Commission and is made a part of the zoning file on this case. Mr. Jack Hatchell of Barton-Aschman discussed the traffic study with regard to the reported level of service E and F as shown on Exchange. He stated the City could increase the capacity at certain signalized intersections by using special lanes such as dual left turn or right turn lanes, etc. Capacity could be increased by as much as 20 to 30 percent. He stated further that cities will always have level of service problems at interchanges of U.S. 75. He stated that Allen does not take into account "passer-by" or "internal trips." If these were taken into account, the trip count could be cut by 15 percent. This would allow a level of service close to "C" in the areas that are shown as E and F on the traffic report. Mr. Bill Petty asked if the developer were volunteering additional lanes and signalization. He stated that he would like to look at alternatives to bring the level of service closer to "C." There was discussion regarding Rowlett Road as an east/west thoroughfare and its intersection with Exchange. Commission discussed the question of whether Level "C" traffic could be obtained, and ways in which the level of service could be increased. Commission stated that they would like to see a plan for bringing the level of traffic to a "C" or a "D." Commission discussed the possibility of having a total traffic analysis for the city prepared. This would take six to eight months with significant funding. 100 ALLEN PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION MAY 22, 1986 Page Four Tabled Item Folsom Investments (Cont.)

(Agenda Item XIII) Mr. Simerly presented the traffic study to the Commission. He stated that the available frontage along Hwy 121 gives this property a particularly good traffic flow.

The following persons spoke in regard to the alignment of Ridgeview Dr. Mr. Marvin Springer, Planner 7142 Wildgrove Ave. Dallas, Texas Mr. Brian Bush 5795 S. Laredo Ct. Aurora, Colorado Chairman Glass closed the public hearing. Mr. Petty addressed the issue of Ridgeview Road. He stated that if this roadway is moved, COG had stated it should move to the south. The zoning cases that have occurred suggest that the zoning districts would be adjusted to the center of the road. A specific location for the road has not been set by zoning. The City would be happy to look at a complete design for this roadway to be presented by the landowners involved. He stated further that under the definition of S.D. 2, the uses should be consistent somewhat to those along U.S. 75. The Comprehensive Plan allows for no FAR higher than 1:1 and height regulations that would be set out for this type of development would be Commercial Corridor with a limitation of 15 stories. He stated that this proposal asks for 20 story buildings with 15 story buildings having 25 foot front yards and 10 feet for rear yards, with additional setbacks to be required only above 15 stories. The FAR recommended is 1:1. The proposal tonight is far above the FAR of 1:1. The heights and FAR in this proposal are significantly different from those shown in the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Keener stated that the traffic analysis was not submitted to COG because of these large differences from the Comprehensive Plan. Commissioner Garcia stated he did not like the plan and was opposed to a workshop session. Commissioner Lee stated he was in agreement with Commissioner Garcia as to being opposed to the plan.

The corner of Bethany and Greenville is one of the prime locations in Allen. The existing shopping center should not be permitted to include an automotive repair facility. It would substantially detract from the attractiveness of the building and bring uncontroll- able clutter to the parking lot. If this were allowed to happen, only one word could describe it: Pitiful.
