with Site Plan Approval for a Radio Station

Greg Smith and Consider an Ordinance Effecting this Change (Agenda Item IX -A)
Bill Petty, Community Development Director, reviewed the request being a Specific Use Permit (SUP)
for a radio station with the radio tower as an accessory use. It was noted that the parking and landscape in this
area is protected by the grandfather clause. The request for the 75 -foot transmitting tower is consistent with the
regulations of the Central Business District (CBD) because the set -back is measured at the front property line.
The following findings were made by the Planning and Zoning Commission
1. This business will be an asset to the City of Allen.
2. Parking and landscaping on Main Street is existing and grandfathered.
3. The use is compatible to adjoining uses.

Consider a Request to Zone 57.6 Acres of Land
Located at the Southeast Comer of Custer and
PM 2170 as Requested by Kendall Land Company
and Consider an Ordinance Effecting this Change (Agenda Item IX -B)
Bill Petty, Director of Community Development, presented the zoning request requested by C. W
Kendall located at the southeast comer of Custer Road and FM 2170. Due to the impact of this development on
the availability of water pressure in the normal drainage path, a 1.5 acre site will be needed by the City in the
future for an elevated water storage tank. The Proponent has approved the request to include dedication of the
water tower site at the first platting of any property in the planned development. In the event the City should
desire to build the water tower at an earlier date, the City would have the option to require dedication at that
time, provided the water tower is built within two years. If not built within two years, the site would be returned
to the Proponent for ownership but maintained as Community Facilities (CF) to be dedicated at platting. There
will be 2.5 acres of open space provided with several options — either at the entrance to the subdivision, adjacent
to the water storage site, or adjacent to the east side of the property next to the McDermott Ranch. At the time
of platting, it will be the City's decision where the open space would be most appropriate.
Mayor Farmer read the request into the record as follows:
"Public hearing to consider a request to zone 57.6 acres of land located at the southeast comer
of Custer and FM 2170 as requested by Kendall Land Company and consider an Ordinance
effecting this change."

Mayor Farmer opened the public hearing and asked for anyone speaking either for or against the request
to do so at this time.
Mary McDermott Cook, McDermott Ranch, Allen, Texas, indicated she felt this request was 'too dense"
and there was too much commercial land included.
Ralph LaRovere, 8 Wooded Lane, Allen, Texas, proposed that this land be developed in a less dense
matter. He was also concerned with traffic in this area
Eric Liepins, 15 Wooded Lane, Allen, Texas, expressed concern regarding traffic density, the open space,
and the large commercial area.
John Glad, Dallas, Texas, discussed the surrounding commercial corners in the City of Plano. He also
indicated that they had reduced the density in the area by eliminating multi -family residences. The three options
of open space will be reviewed at time of platting and will allow the City flexibility in their intent.
With no one else speaking either for or against the request, Mayor Farmer closed the public hearing.
Council discussed various items including the water pressure in the area, the size of the commercial area
and the use of multi -family with larger lot sizes versus deletion of the multi -family entirely This proposal does
meet the Comprehensive Plan requirements. Discussion was held regarding the three options provided for the
j open space plan.

not a typographical error based upon historical research of previous ordinances.

Tary Arterbum, Suncreek Ltd., reviewed the concept of The Villages of Suncreek.
Greg Rich reviewed the link of Suncreek Boulevard to Alma Road and showed a conceptual plan using

Suncreek Ltd. and consider an Ordinance effecting this change."
Mayor Fanner opened the public hearing and asked for anyone speaking either for or against the request
to do so at this time.
Mary McDermott Cook, McDermott Ranch, Allen, Texas, complimented the Developer and the desire
to save the forest and the creek lands. She indicated the City should "lock in" a price for the woods that will
need to be purchased so that we will know exactly what the dollar amount is. She also requested that no more
disturbance of the trees for the bridge should be considered than that which is absolutely necessary
Amy Moniet, Montgomery Farm, Allen, Texas, also indicated the City needs to have a price 'locked
down" on the woods, and implored the Council to consider an aesthetically beautiful bridge such as the one in
Richardson at Breckenridge Park. She also requested that the Council insist on bicycle paths on the bridge and
pathways underneath the bridge to enhance the trail system in Allen.

and pedestrians on Alma Bridge.
Frances Williams, Montgomery Farms, Allen, Texas, expressed concerns with Tract 5 with encroachment
upon floodplain and would like to have an engineer look at this area very closely
With no one else speaking for or against the request, Mayor Farmer closed the public hearing.
Council felt a workshop was necessary to review some of the other items in the proposal prior to adopting
an ordinance. The Proponent requested that a list of questions that Council might have be submitted to Staff so
that the Proponents can be prepared to answer those questions during the workshop meeting.
There was no action taken on this item.
