ROAD.[*This meeting was joined in progress.*]
THERE IS A FIRE STATION,[City Planning Commission on June 15, 2023. ]
UH, RIGHT AT THE CORNER OF JIM MILLER AND POLAND.AND YEAH, SO THAT'S BASICALLY IT.
UM, 6 38 WAS ESTABLISHED IN MAY OF OH THREE.
UM, IT ALLOWS PUBLIC SCHOOL OTHER THAN AN OPEN ENROLLMENT CHARTER SCHOOL BY RIGHTS.
UM, THE EXISTING PUBLIC SCHOOL IS URBAN PARK ELEMENTARY.
IT REMAINS IN OPERATION CURRENTLY, HOWEVER, IT IS, UH, TO BE REPLACED BY BRAND NEW SCHOOL AND THEN DEMOLISHED.
UM, THE CURRENT REQUEST, UM, INCLUDES, LIKE I SAID, CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, UM, ADDING A TMP REQUIREMENT TO THE PD SINCE IT DOES NOT CURRENTLY HAVE THAT REQUIREMENT IN THE TEXT.
UM, LANDSCAPING IS PER ARTICLE 10, BUT UNLIKE THE LAST SITE, THIS IS A BRAND NEW BUILD, SO THE ENTIRE SITE WILL HAVE TO COMPLY WITH THE PROVISIONS OF ARTICLE 10.
UM, SIDEWALK IMPROVEMENT, PEDESTRIAN AMENITIES, AND TEXT UPDATES.
UM, AND THEN JUST GONNA TAKE HERE AROUND THE SCHOOL, THIS IS ACTUALLY THE NEWEST PART OF THE SCHOOL.
WE'RE LOOKING, UH, FROM MILITARY PARKWAY.
UM, AND THIS IS THE EXISTING, UH, THRIVE AND I GUESS GUEST PARKING, VISITOR PARKING AREA, ALSO ON MILITARY.
UM, AND THEN WORKING OUR WAY AROUND.
UM, THIS IS, UH, AT THE CORNER OF MILITARY PARKWAY AND JIM MILLER AND THE PARKING AREA THAT YOU SEE, UM, ON THE SITE THERE IS ACTUALLY GOING TO BE REMOVED.
AND THERE'S A COUPLE OF CURB CUTS ON JIM MILLER THAT ALSO BEING CLOSED OFF AND CURB RESTORED.
UM, WE ARE AT THE CORNER OF JIM MILLER, AND I THINK I MAY HAVE THAT WRONG, JIM MILLER AND TOLAND, IT SHOULDN'T SAY WIL, SO IT SHOULD SAY JIM MILLER AND TOLAND.
UM, PORTABLES OBVIOUSLY BE GONE.
UM, AND THEN SO MUCH TROUBLE WITH MY SLIDES.
I KNOW BECAUSE I'M CONFUSING MYSELF BY SHOWING YOU THE SITE PHOTO AND THEN LATER THE SURROUNDING GOING A BIT OUT OF WATER.
UM, CONTINUING AROUND THE SITES, YOU'RE GONNA BUILD, AS WE'VE SEEN A NUMBER OF TIMES BEFORE, THEY'RE GONNA BUILD ON THE UNDEVELOPED PORTION OF THE PROPERTY, UM, CLOSER TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD IN THIS CASE, AND THEN DEMOLISH THE SCHOOL AND BUILD ATHLETIC, OR NOT REALLY ATHLETIC FIELDS, BUT OPEN SPACES, PLAY AREAS AND THINGS LIKE THAT.
SURROUNDING USAGE, LIKE I SAID, THERE'S A COUPLE OF CHURCHES AROUND THE PROPERTY.
THIS IS THE ONE AT, UH, JIM MILLER AND WILKES.
UM, AND THEN AT THE, UH, TO THE SOUTHEAST OF THE SITE, THERE'S A, A CR AREA THAT HAS SOME, UH, COMMERCIAL, VARIOUS COMMERCIAL USES.
UM, THERE'S A FUELING STATION, SOME AUTO RELATED USES ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE SITE.
UM, BUT AGAIN, PREDOMINANTLY APPEARS THE FIRE STATION RIGHT AT, UM,
UM, AGAIN, I HAVE THE, THE EXISTING, THE ORIGINAL AND THE EXISTING DEVELOPMENT PLANS IN HERE.
IF THERE'S ANY REASON TO REFERENCE THEM, WE CERTAINLY CAN IN THE CASE REPORT AS WELL.
UM, JUST KINDA SHOWING YOU THE EVOLUTION OF THE SITE, AS I MENTIONED, UM, THEY ARE CLOSING, UH, ANY EXISTING CURB CUTS ALONG JIM MILLER.
I MEAN THIS, THIS, UM, SORT OF CIRCLE DRIVE IS GONNA EXIST KIND OF IN THE SAME SPACE WITH A LITTLE BIT OF ADJUSTMENT, BUT YOU'LL SEE IN THE TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN THAT THEY'RE EXTEND INTO THE SITE SO THAT THEY CAN GET MOST OF THE QAN OFF OF THE PUBLIC ROADWAYS.
UM, THIS IS THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT PLAN, AND I'M GONNA SUBMIT THAT IN AS MUCH AS I POSSIBLY CAN.
UM, SO AS I SAID, UM, QUEUING IS GONNA COME IN, IN THIS, UH, OFF OF MILITARY PARKWAY.
THERE'S ALSO A QUEUING AREA ON OFF OF POLAND STREET.
UM, THEY DID HAVE A THIRD CURB CUTS ALONG THAT ROADWAY AND THEY AGREED TO REMOVE THAT
[00:05:01]
AND THEN TO DO A LITTLE BIT OF, UM, UH, MAGIC TO HIDE THE BACK OF HOUSE SERVICE AREA FROM THE SINGLE FAMILY ACROSS TOLEN STREET.SO THEY'VE RECONFIGURED THAT AREA.
THEY'VE ALSO ON THE INDENTED DRIVE OVER HERE, UM, THEY'RE CREATING ALONG WILKES, THEY'VE AGREED TO PUT IN, UM, A BIT OF A CURB SO THAT WE DON'T HAVE PEOPLE RANDOMLY COMING IN AND OUT.
IT'S A LITTLE BIT MORE ORGANIZED FOR DROP OFF AND PICKUP.
UM, AND PHIL HAS CONFIRMED THAT THE SITE AS DESIGNED, UM, CAN, CAN COMPLY WITH ARTICLE 10.
SO THERE SHOULD BE NO ISSUES THERE.
UM, AGAIN, LIKE ON THE LAST CASE, WE'RE FOCUSING PEDESTRIAN AMENITIES AT CERTAIN KEY AREAS.
GENERALLY OVER HERE ON WILKES AVENUE, UM, ADJACENT TO THE SIDEWALK, WE'RE DROP OFF, THE PICKUP ARE HAVING, ARE ARE GOING TO BE OCCURRING.
AND THEN A COUPLE OF AREAS OVER HERE ON TOLAND.
AND THEN ANOTHER, UH, GROUPING OR A COUPLE OF GROUPINGS OF PEDESTRIAN AMENITIES WILL BE MORE INTERNAL TO SITE OFF OF THIS LOOP TRAIL THAT THEY'RE PLANNING TO BUILD AND SO ON AND SO FORTH.
UM, THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR A BIT OF BACKUP TRAFFIC, AS YOU'LL SEE ON THE LOWER LEFT CORNER OF YOUR SCREEN HERE WHEN IT COMES UP.
LOWER LEFT CORNER OF THE SCREEN.
UM, I WILL POINT OUT THAT THERE IS, I DON'T KNOW THE CORRECT WORD FOR IT, BUT THERE'S AN EXTRA STREET ALONG THE SIDE OF MILITARY PARKWAY.
IT'S A BIT MORE OF A LOCAL STREET ADJACENT TO THE SCHOOL, NOT THE, THE MAJOR LANES OF TRAFFIC.
SO, UH, THE WAY THEY DESIGNED THIS, THAT TRAFFIC WILL CIRCULATE IN A CLOCKWISE MANNER SO THAT THEY, ANY OVERKILL, UM, THAT CAN'T QUEUE ON THE PROPERTY WILL ACTUALLY BE ON THIS LITTLE SIDE STREET RIGHT HERE THAT'S NOT ON MILITARY, NOT ON THE MAJOR TRAFFIC LANE OF THE MILITARY.
UM, POINTING OUT, UM, AGAIN, I HAVE THE CONDITIONS SHOWN HERE, UM, IN CASE WE NEED TO REFERENCE THEM, THEY ARE INCREASING THE MAXIMUM HEIGHT OF 40 FEET THAT'S ALLOWED.
UM, OTHER THAN THAT, IT'S, IT'S REALLY THE ONLY CHANGE, UM, FROM 51 A ACTUALLY THEY'RE REDUCING THE, THE, THE LOT COVERAGE AS WELL.
BUT THAT WAS THE SAME AS LAST.
UM, AGAIN, LIKE ON THE LAST ONE, WE'RE GONNA NEED TO TWEAK THE PEDESTRIAN AMENITY LANGUAGE AND THEN SO ON AND SO FORTH.
UM, AND WHAT WAS THAT? HOW ABOUT FENCING? I'M SORRY, FENCES.
OKAY, SO THIS WAS, THIS WAS SIMILAR TO SAME LANGUAGE I THINK IS IN THE LAST ONE.
BASICALLY, UM, MAKING SURE THAT THE UNDERSTANDING IS THAT FENCES NEED TO COMPLY WITH THE, THE 51 A PROVISIONS.
UM, BUT UH, IN AN, SINCE IT REFERS TO A NORTH SEVEN 50 A BASE DISTRICT, THEY WOULDN'T NORMALLY BE ALLOWED TO PUT A SIX FOOT FENCE IN FRONT YARD.
AND SO THESE ARE THE CONDITIONS THAT SAY, OKAY, YOU CAN PUT A FENCE IN THE FRONT YARD HERE IF ALL OF THESE THINGS ARE MET.
SO AN OPEN FENCE INSTEAD OF JUST SOLID, OBVIOUSLY.
UM, AND THEN MAKING SURE THAT, UH, VISIBILITY TRIANGLES ARE, YEAH, THE GATES AREN'T IN THE, SO WE'RE RECESSING THE GATES AND JUST MAKING SURE GENERALLY THAT WE HAVE, UM, A GOOD SITUATION OTHERWISE, CORRECT.
UM, AND THEN I JUST PUT A BLIP IN HERE TO SHOW YOU TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN IS BEING ADDED.
IT'S ALL THE SAME STANDARD LANGUAGE THAT YOU'RE USED TO SEEING, BUT, UM, I'M NOT GONNA BELABOR THAT.
UM, SIDEWALKS IN THIS CASE, UM, WILL BE UP TO THE NEW STANDARD.
UM, THERE IS A PROVISION THAT THEY CAN REDUCE THAT AGAIN TO ZERO, WHERE THAT INDENTED DROP OFF AND PICKUP HAPPENS.
UM, AND IF THEY HAVE A MINIMUM EIGHT FOOT WIDE ON OBSTRUCTIVE SIDEWALK, BUT THAT'S REALLY THE FRONT OF THEIR SCHOOL.
AND SO THERE'S, THERE'S GONNA BE A LOT OF SPACE THERE.
THERE'S MAKING SURE THAT WE HAVE AT LEAST EIGHT FEET FOR WALKING AND THEN FOR THOSE PEDESTRIAN AMENITIES.
UM, AND SO APPROVAL ON THIS ONE IS SUBJECT TO OR STAFF IS RECOMMENDING APPROVAL SUBJECT TO A DEVELOPMENT PLAN, TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN AND CONDITIONS.
COMMISSIONER, YOUNG, UH, SAME QUESTION ABOUT AFTER STUDENTS BEGAN ATTENDING CLASSES.
I WAS, I KIND OF DID THAT ON PURPOSE TO SEE IF YOU'RE PAYING ATTENTION.
BY THE TIME THE CASE COMES UP, WHO KNOWS.
YOU KNOW, WHEN WE GET OUT AND TALK SOMETHING WE GOTTA GET OUR GANG FACES ON.
BUT HERE, YOU KNOW, JUST SAME.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ON THIS ITEM? COMMISSIONER, DON'T, DON'T TELL ME SCHOOLS ARE GETTING BORING.
[00:10:01]
FOUND SIGN.I THINK WE CAN GET ONE MORE CASE THERE.
KRAMER, DO YOU WANNA TAKE FRAYER? YES.
IT'S NOT, COMMISSIONER HAS A CONFLICT ON THIS ONE AND IT'S LOOKING OUT OF THE ROOM, YOUR HONOR.
CAN I JUST LIKE, CAN I GO SIT THERE OR CAN I SOME WATER? YEAH, DON'T GET TOO COMFY.
UM, IS AN APPLICATION SORT NEED TO, AN APPLICATION FOR AN AMENDMENT TO LAND ENROLL DISTRICT NUMBER 6 65 TO ALLOW AN ADDITION TO AN EXISTING PUBLIC SCHOOL, ARTHUR KRAMER ELEMENTARY.
THAT'S ON A BLOCK THAT'S, UH, BOUNDED BY BURY ST.
IT'S, UH, A LITTLE BIT OVER NINE ACRES IN AREA.
THE LOCATION IS IN NORTH DALLAS, UH, SOMEWHERE BY, UH, 75.
UH, IT'S IN A SINGLE FAMILY NEIGHBORHOOD SURROUNDED BY SINGLE FAMILY, ALL, UH, ON ALL SIDES.
UM, THE SCHOOL IS ALREADY EXISTING.
THEY'RE PLANNING AN ADDITION AND, UM, THE ADDITION, THE RELOCATION OF THEIR PLAYGROUND, UH, GOING AROUND THE BLOCK STARTED AT MID BURY BECAUSE BURY IS BASICALLY THEIR MAINTENANCE MAIN FACADE.
JUDE'S, UM, I WAS TRYING TO, AND WE PROBABLY ALSO GET BACK TO THIS, UM, I WAS TRYING TO AGAIN SHOW HOW THE SIDEWALK IS CONFIGURED.
UH, AND THEY HAVE A LITTLE PLAZA IN THE FRONT, AND THEN THEY HAVE MATURE TREES ARE CLOSER TO THE PROPERTY LINE.
AND YOU CAN SEE THE SIDEWALK WIDTH.
AND I WILL MENTION THAT ALL OF THE FOUR BLOCKS, UH, THE FOUR BLOCKS OF FOUR UM, SIDES, THEY ALL HAVE THE SAME CONFIGURATION.
LIKE FIVE, SIX FOOT BUFFER IS ALREADY EXISTING FORKLIFT SIDEWALK.
UM, NOW THE OTHER CORNER, UM, BURY DRIVE AND TUNICA DRIVE, YOU CAN SEE THE PLAYGROUND THAT'S ON THE CORNER.
THIS A BETTER VIEW, A BETTER VIEW OF THE PLAYGROUND.
ON TUNICA DRIVE IS A LITTLE BIT OF A SLOPE.
UH, AND THEY HAVE A RETAINING WALL.
UM, AGAIN, A BETTER VIEW OF TUNICA DRIVE WITH THEIR RETAINING WALL AND STEPS.
THIS IS THE PLAYGROUND THAT IS GONNA BE RELOCATED TO MAKE ROOM FOR THE ADDITION THAT'S GONNA FACE TUNICA DRIVE, JUST TO SHOW THE BIT THE, THE GRADE.
IT'S PRETTY, THE SLOPE IS PRETTY SIGNIFICANT.
THERE IS A LITTLE SITTING AREA THAT THEY HAVE IN HERE, AND I THINK THEY'RE PLANNING TO BASICALLY DO SOMETHING SIMILAR A LITTLE BIT ON THE OTHER SIDE.
THIS IS THE VIEW FROM UNI DRIVE AND MASON DELL'S.
AGAIN, AS I WAS SAYING, LOOK AT THE EXISTING CONFIGURATION.
THEY ALREADY HAVE SIDEWALKS AND THEY HAVE ANOTHER SMALL RETAINING WALL ON, UM, MASON DELL'S SAME.
UM, EVERYTHING AROUND IT IS SINGLE FAMILY.
SO, UM, THIS IS THE CORNER OF MASON DOS IN ST.
THIS IS, THEY HAVE ATHLETIC FIELDS IN HERE, AND THERE'S ANOTHER LITTLE PLAYGROUND INSIDE.
THAT'S WHERE THEY HAVE THEIR, UM, ACCESS, UM, THEIR CAR ACCESS.
THEY HAVE THIS OLD PARKING LOT THERE ON THE SIDE WITH THEIR GARBAGE DUMPSTER.
SO THIS IS THEIR, UM, SERVICING AREA.
THEY HAVE, I THINK, PROPOSING TO REPLACE WITH THIS ONE.
THE, THAT RECOMMENDATION IS SUBJECT TO REVISE JUST BECAUSE WE NEED TO CLEAN IT UP A LITTLE BIT.
UM, THE WAY THEY'RE SHOWING THE PROPERTY DIMENSIONS IS JUST COMING UP.
I THINK THERE ARE SOME LINES ON TOP OF ONE ON BASIS,
[00:15:01]
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.SO THE ADDITION, THEY ARE COMING A LITTLE BIT CLOSER.
THEY'RE ADDING A LITTLE BIT, UM, ALONG MID BURY, WHICH IS THEIR FRONT MAINTAINING THE PLAZA.
AND THEN THEIR MAIN ADDITION IS ON KIKA RE BASICALLY REMOVE, REMOVING, UH, MOVING THE PLAYGROUND TO THE INTERIOR.
THEY'RE PROPOSING, UH, THEY'RE PROPOSING, UH, PEDESTRIAN ACCESS TO LINK TO THE, TO THE SIDEWALK ON MASON DE'S THE HOMES.
SO IT'S INTERESTING, IMPORTANT TO MENTION THAT ON MASON DES THE NIGRO, YOU'RE GONNA HAVE HOMES FRONTING THE WHOLE BOTTOM.
IKA AND ST YOU HAVE SIDE, UH, THEY ARE NOT GONNA TOUCH IKA AT ALL.
UM, THEY ARE GONNA TOUCH ONLY MID BURY.
THAT'S WHY THE CONDITIONS IN THE PD ARE TO INCREASE THE SIDEWALK ON MID BURY AND NOT TOUCH THE SIDEWALKS ON THE OTHERS.
SO THAT WAS PART OUR AGREEMENT WITH THEM.
BUT, UM, UM, WE ARE SHOWING IT HERE AREAS WHERE THE AMENITIES, AND WE WERE TRYING TO CONCENTRATE THEM AS CLOSER TO THE SIDEWALK AS POSSIBLE SO THEY CAN HAVE SOME SORT OF AN UN UNRESTRICTED ACCESS.
AND OBVIOUSLY THE FOURTH ONE AROUND THE PLAYGROUND LOCATION.
SO WE HAVE, UM, THREE AREAS THAT ARE VERY CLOSE TO THE SIDEWALK.
THEY'RE GONNA HAVE BENCHES AND TREES.
AND IN THE CONDITIONS WE ALSO INCLUDE A CONDITION FOR THEM TO ADD STREET TREES ON THEIR PROPERTY ALONG MASON DELLS MASON DE 40 FEET APART.
SO THIS IS ABOVE AND BEYOND AN ARTICLE 10, AS JENNIFER WAS SAYING, BECAUSE ARTICLE 10 IS TRIGGERED, BUT IT WON'T GIVE US A BIG BUMPING AND SKIPPING.
UM, THIS IS THEIR TRANSPORTATION MANAGEMENT PLAN.
THIS IS SHOWING THE EXISTING SITUATION.
AND YOU CAN SEE THEY'RE QUEUING BOTH LANES ON BURY AND THE BUSES ARE ON THE CORNER.
THIS IS THE IMPROVEMENT THAT THEY'RE PROPOSING.
THIS IS WHAT'S IN YOUR REPORT.
I SENT AS YOLANDA SENT YOU REVISIONS.
IT WASN'T, IT WAS A LITTLE BIT OF JUST AND FORTH WITH THAT.
UH, THEY ASKED FOR THIS QUEUING LINK TO BE REMOVED AND THEY BASICALLY CLEANED UP AND, UH, ADDRESSED THAT COMMENT.
UM, SO YOU CAN SEE THIS IS AN UPDATED, AND THE STAFF RECOMMENDATION IS GONNA BE PER THE TMP A BRIEF, THE BUSES, THEY'RE PLANNING TO PUT THE BUSES ON SITE AND QUEUE, UH, ALONG THE STREETS, BUT ON
AND THEY'RE ALSO ADDING, LET'S SEE, THIS EXHIBIT, WHICH IS SOMETHING WE STAFF REQUESTED TO ENCOURAGE THE PARENTS TO MOVE FLOCK WISE AROUND THE SITE.
AND ALSO IN WHAT I SENT YOU, I ASKED THE APPLICANT TO ALSO PROVIDE A CLOUDED VERSION SO WE CAN ALL SEE WHAT THE CHANGES ARE.
BUT AGAIN, IT'S A LOT OF RED IN HERE, BUT IT'S NOT NECESSARILY A LOT OF CHANGES.
ANOTHER CHANGE THAT WE ASK FOR IS TO INDICATE THAT THE PEDESTRIAN PATH IS GONNA BASICALLY CONNECT WITH THE, WITH SUPPLY WALLS.
BUT THIS PEDESTRIAN PATH, IT'S NOT NECESSARILY AN AREA WHERE THE KIDS ARE GONNA BE DROPPED OFF AND PICKED UP.
MAJOR DROP OFF IN PICK UP IS GONNA BE, UH, MID BRIDGE, RIGHT? UM, UH, DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS THE SAME.
UH, WE JUST QUOTED THE SETBACKS.
SO THERE'S NO CONFUSION AT PERMITTING AT ALL.
UM, CHANGES TO THE PD JUST TO LIKE BRING THEM UP TO CODE.
UM, WE ARE GONNA HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF A REVISED LANGUAGE FOR THE AMENITIES.
UH, WE ARE GONNA HAVE, SO ALL OF THESE CONDITIONS ARE CHANGING.
WE'RE ADDING, WE'RE ADDING CONDITIONS FOR LANDSCAPING AND FOR SIGNS JUST TO EXPLAIN.
THEY ARE JUST PROPOSING TO BASICALLY MOVE THE BIG SIGN A LITTLE BIT CLOSER TO THE SETBACK BECAUSE OF THESE TRIPS TO EXPLAIN.
AND THEN THIS IS YOUR CHANGE PERIOD.
NOW SUBJECT TO A REVISED DEVELOPMENT PLAN TO CLEAN OUR TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLANNING CONDITIONS INTO THE SLIDE.
COMMISSIONER, HONOR WITH THE THIRD COMMISSIONER, ANY QUESTIONS ON THIS ITEM OF I HAVE MORE PLEASE.
IN, IN REGARDS TO OUR, WE THESE SCHOOLS.
I KNOW ALL OF THESE STUDENTS HAVE, UM, OUR PAY GRIDS, UH, PORTABLES ON SITE.
DO WE HAVE THESE DISCUSSIONS WITH OUR GROUP TO NEVER BRING THOSE BACK? LIKE, TO THINK ABOUT THAT WE ARE NOT, I TALK TO THE APPLICANT ABOUT THAT BECAUSE IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT AT THIS SCHOOL THEY CAN MAINTAIN FOR.
THAT CONCLUDES THE BREAKING VALLEY CITY PLAN COMMISSION.
WE HAVE ABOUT FIVE MINUTES TO GO OUT THERE AND GET STARTED.
MORRIS RON COMMISSIONERS, WE'RE GONNA GO AHEAD AND GET STARTED.

GENERALLY LOCATED ON THE EAST LINE OF SPUR 4 0 8, NORTH OF WEST LEDBETTER EXTENSION.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION IS APPROVAL.
UH, WE DO HAVE ONE REGISTERED SPEAKER.
IS MR. BROOKS ONLINE? HE IS NOT.
IS THERE ANYONE HERE THAT WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM? THIS IS CASE NUMBER TWO M 20 2305.
ANYONE HERE THAT WOULD LIKE TO BE HEARD ON THIS ITEM? I'M HERE FOR JOHN, I HERE ASK QUESTIONS.
THERE MAY BE QUESTIONS FOR YOU.
ANY QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONERS, COMMISSIONER YOUNG? SIR? SIR, COULD YOU COME DOWN PLEASE? IF YOU COULD COME DOWN TO THE, UH, MICROPHONE.
THERE'S A LITTLE BUTTON THERE.
JUST PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD.
MY NAME'S JAMES SPENCER, 25 0 2 HARBORVIEW BOULEVARD, ETTE, TEXAS.
UH, ON YOUR PR ON YOUR LANDSCAPE PLAN, YOUR EXISTING LANDSCAPE PLAN, THERE'S AN AREA DESIGNATED AS PROPOSED CONSERVATION DISTRICT.
CAN YOU DESCRIBE YOUR INTENTIONS FOR THAT AREA? I CANNOT.
UH, I WOULD HAVE TO GO BACK AND AND REVIEW THAT.
[00:25:01]
THAT'S THE WAY THE CIVIL HAD HAD DESIGNED IT.SO THE, UM, SIR, SO I THINK THERE'S ANOTHER QUESTION FOR YOU.
SO SEVERAL NEIGHBORS IN THAT, IN, IN THE DISTRICT THREE WHERE, WHERE WE LIVE, UM, COMPLAIN ABOUT THE TRAFFIC COMING OFF OF 4 0 8.
UM, THERE HAS BEEN AN OFFICER BROUGHT IN TO KIND OF MANAGE THE TRAFFIC, BUT HAS ANYTHING BEEN CONSIDERED, UM, TO ADDRESS THE TRAFFIC THAT FLOWS FROM 4 0 8 WHEN IT'S TIME TO PICK UP AND DROP OFF? THE TRAFFIC STUDY HAS BEEN, HAS BEEN COMPLETED, AND IT SHOWS THAT THERE IS NO IMPACT TO THE, THE TRAFFIC STUDY DID NOT INCLUDE 4 0 8.
IT ONLY INCLUDED LEAD BETTER EXTENSION.
UM, SO THE CARS GO ONTO LEADBETTER EXTENSION FROM 4 0 8 AND STRETCH OUT COMPLETELY.
UM, AND SEVERAL OF THE RESIDENTS CAN'T GET TO THEIR HOME FOR UP TO 30 MINUTES.
SOMETIMES, UM, IN THAT LINE, THE, THAT, THAT TIME HAS BEEN CHARTED WITH THE ADDED OFFICER.
BUT IS THERE ANYTHING THAT YOU GUYS ARE LOOKING INTO AND REDUCING THE TRAFFIC AT THAT CORNER OF 4 0 8 AND GRADY NLA? UH, I'D HAVE TO DEFER THAT TO THE CLIENT.
I'M NOT SURE EXACTLY WHAT THEY'VE DONE.
UM, IT IS A SCHOOL, SO UNDERSTOOD.
UH, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR OUR SPEAKER COMMISSIONERS? QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? UH, COMMISSIONER YOUNG, I THINK WE MAY HAVE AN ANSWER FOR YOU, SIR.
YES, I, I AM, I'M LOOKING BACK AT THE EXISTING LANDSCAPE PLAN.
AND IT IS CURRENTLY ON THERE SHOWN AS PROPOSED CONSERVATION DISTRICTS.
THAT SHOULD BE CONSERVATION AREA.
HOWEVER, IT'S THAT THAT HASN'T BEEN PROPOSED FOR A CHANGE IN, IN THE WORDING, BUT I BELIEVE WE CAN GET THAT DONE.
IS THAT PART OF YOUR RECOMMENDATION THEN? UH, YES.
AND WE CAN GET THAT FROM THE APPLI, AN UPDATED PLAN WITH THE WORDING CHANGED FROM THE APPLICANT.
SO THE, YOUR RECOMMENDATION IS APPROVAL AS BRIEFED? YES.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR STAFF COMMISSIONERS? SO IT'S AN ADJUSTMENT WOULD BE, UH, A MOTION THAT WOULD INCLUDE AS BRIEFED SEEING NONE.
COMMISSIONER, COMMISSIONER HARBOR, DO YOU HAVE MOTION, SIR? UM, I'M STRUGGLING WITH THE MOTION, UH, HONESTLY CUZ IT'S HAS BEEN A HUGE ISSUE FOR THOSE NEIGHBORS IN THAT AREA.
UM, BUT I WILL SAY THAT THE, THERE ARE GOOD NEIGHBORS AND, UM, ARE WILLING TO WORK WITH THE NEIGHBORS.
SO, AND THAT BEING SAID, I MOVE TO APPROVE THE, I'M SORRY, I MOVE TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND APPROVE THE ZONING CHANGES RECOMMENDED BY STAFF AND BRIEFED.
CAN I MAKE A AS, AS BRIEF AS BRIEFED? AS BE AS BRIEFED? THANK YOU.
UH, CAN I GET A SECOND? I'LL SECOND.
SO IT IS A, A MINOR AMENDMENT.
WE HAVE A MOTION BY COMMISSIONER HERBERT IN THE CASE OF M 22 305 AND SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER STANDARD.
AND I THINK WE, WE HAVE SOME COMMENTS.
COMMISSIONER BLAIR, I WAS GOING TO, UM, MAKE A FRIENDLY AMENDMENT TO HOLD THE CASE UNTIL YOU CAN GET THE ANSWERS AND THEN COME BACK WITH THE ANSWERS THAT YOU'RE, YOU'RE LOOKING FOR OR A PATHWAY TO THOSE ANSWERS.
UM, YES, THAT I, I WOULD LEAN TOWARDS THAT, ESPECIALLY SAYING THAT THE APPLICANT COULDN'T ANSWER MY QUESTION.
UM, I, I DIDN'T CONSIDER THAT, BUT I I WOULD LIKE TO CONSIDER THAT IF IT'S NOT TOO LATE, IT IS NOT TOO LATE.
YES, YOU CAN WITH WITHDRAW YOUR MOTION IF THAT'S OKAY WITH COMMISSIONER STANDARD OR IF THERE'S NO OBJECTION FROM THE BODY, WHICH THERE IS NOT.
YOU HAVE ANY MOTION, SIR? THIS WOULD BE HELD WHEN IS OUR NEXT JULY 6TH.
UM, SO THAT BEING SAID, I WOULD LIKE TO, UH, KEEP THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN, HOLD THIS MATTER UNDER ADVISEMENT UNTIL THE JULY 6TH MEETING.
COMMISSIONER HAMPTON FOR YOUR SECOND, UH, COMMISSIONERS.
WE HAVE A MOTION BY COMMISSIONER HERBERT, SECOND BY COMMISSIONER HAMPTON TO HOLD A MATTER UNDER ADVISEMENT TO JULY 6TH, KEEPING THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN ANY DISCUSSION? COMMISSIONER BLAIR? I KNOW THIS IS A MINOR AMENDMENT AND I KNOW OUR RULES WITH MINOR AMENDMENTS, BUT I ALSO KNOW THE AREA AND I'VE ALSO BEEN STUCK IN
[00:30:01]
THAT QUEUING LINE OFF OF 4 0 8 THINKING I'M GOING TO, UM, GET ONE OF MY NOTORIOUS, UH, SIDE STREETS AND IT ACTUALLY TAKES ME LONGER THAN A SHORTER PERIOD OF TIME.UM, SO WHAT I HAVE FOR THE RECOMMENDATION I HAVE FOR THE APPLICANT IS THAT YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT YOU, YOU CAN BE A GOOD NEIGHBOR, BUT BEING A GOOD NEIGHBORS MEAN BEING A GOOD NEIGHBOR FOR EVERYONE, NOT JUST THOSE THAT ARE TOTALLY SURROUNDING YOU.
UM, BECAUSE WHERE YOU WANT THOSE NEIGHBORHOODS TO SUPPORT YOU, YOU HAVE TO ALSO SUPPORT THEM.
AND GRADY NLO AND 4 0 8 IS NOT THE EASIEST STREET TO N NAVIGATE, BUT IT WILL TAKE YOU ALL THROUGHOUT THE CITY AND ALL THE WAY TO GRAND PRAIRIE.
SO IT, IT, IT WOULD BEHOOVE ALL OF US TO BE GOOD TO THE MAJORITY OF US.
JUST FOLLOWING UP ON COMMISSIONER BLAIR'S COMMENT, UH, ONE OF THE CRITERIA FOR APPROVING A MINOR AMENDMENT IS THAT IT DOES NOT ALTER THE BASIC RELATIONSHIP OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY AND SURROUNDING PROPERTIES.
USUALLY THAT INVOLVES THINGS LIKE HEIGHT OR SETBACKS, BUT HERE THEY WOULD BE, UH, EXPANDING THE FOOTPRINT OF THE CAMPUS, UH, UH, THE BUILDINGS SUBSTANTIALLY AND THEREBY GENERATING, UH, MORE TRAFFIC, WHICH HAS A DIRECT IMPACT ON THE SURROUNDING PROPERTY.
SO I THINK IT FITS COMFORTABLY WITHIN, UH, THE MINOR AMENDMENT CRITERIA AND I'M HAPPY TO SUPPORT THE MOTION WE HAVE.
ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, PLEASE SAY AYE.
UH, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WE'LL NOW MOVE ON TO OUR ZONING CASES.
WE'LL BEGIN WITH THE CASES ON CONSENT, UH, THREE, FOUR, AND FIVE.
NUMBER FIVE HAS COME OFF CONSENT.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION IS APPROVAL SUBJECT TO A REVISED DEVELOPMENT PLAN, A TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN AND CONDITIONS AS BRIEFED.
UH, CARL CROWLEY, 2201 MAIN STREET, DALLAS, TEXAS REPRESENTATIVE, THE D I S D.
THIS IS, UH, SAMUEL HIGH SCHOOL.
UM, I WANNA THANK THE, THE, UH, STAFF WITH WORKING WITH US ON, UH, I THINK IT'S A, UM, IT'S A PLAN TO ADD SOME LANDSCAPING TO A SCHOOL THAT WAS BUILT WELL IN THE FIFTIES, I WOULD GUESS
UH, WE'VE, UH, ADDED SOME LANDSCAPING, AS JENNIFER MENTIONED IN THE, A PARKING LOT ACROSS THE STREET.
WE'VE ADDED A, A WHAT I'LL CALL A GROVE.
I THINK WE'RE ALL CALLING IT A GROVE OF TREES.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT A DEFINITION OF GROVE OF TREES IS, BUT AN AREA OF AT LEAST AN ACRE IN SIZE THAT WILL BE FULL OF TREES.
AND THEN, UM, ONE, I THINK THAT THIS IS THE FIRST OF THE SCHOOLS WHERE WE'VE SORT OF MODIFIED THIS PEDESTRIAN ASPECT.
AND, AND I THINK WE ALL SORT OF CAME TO THE CONCLUSION THIS OF A STANDARD EVERY 200 FEET GETS, KIND OF, DOESN'T REALLY SOLVE WHAT THE IDEA IS TO GET A PLACE FOR FAMILIES AND TEACHERS AND COMMUNITY AND OTHER PEOPLE TO GATHER AND STUFF.
AND, AND THIS IS THE FIRST SCHOOL WHERE WE'VE DONE THAT.
AND I THINK, UH, KRAMER'S LIKE THAT.
AND I THINK FROM NOW ON WE'RE GONNA LOOK AT WHERE IT'S LOGICAL TO PUT THESE AMENITIES IS THE LOGICAL PLACE TO PUT 'EM WHERE THEY'RE USED AS OPPOSED TO JUST EQUALLY SPACING THEM AND STUFF.
SO I WANT TO THANK THE STAFF FOR WORKING WITH US ON THAT.
UM, KATIE IS HERE TO EXPLAIN THE, UH, LIGHT ASPECT.
I BELIEVE THE PRINCIPAL IS ON SITE, ON, ON ONLINE TO SPEAK.
DO YOU HAVE A, IS THAT MR. GARRA? YES.
SO I, I'M GONNA, UM, FINISH AND I'M SURE IF THERE'S ANY QUESTIONS I CAN HOPEFULLY ANSWER 'EM LATER, BUT IF WE'LL GO TO HIM AND THEN I THINK, UH, OH, THERE SHE IS.
I THOUGHT YOU, I THOUGHT YOU ABANDONED ME UP HERE.
UH, SHE'LL TALK ABOUT LIGHTS, WHICH WILL COME INTO PLAY AND IF WE'RE GOING THROUGH HIGH SCHOOLS AND ADDING THESE TO ALL THE HIGH SCHOOLS AND AS LITTLE AT A TIME.
SO, UM, I GUESS THE PRINCIPAL.
MR. GARRA, OR THANK YOU MR. CARLEY.
GABRIEL GARRA, 89 28 PALISADE DRIVE, THE PROUD PRINCIPAL OF THE HISTORIC WW SAMUEL HIGH SCHOOL.
I JUST WANT TO THANK EVERYONE ON THE PANEL FOR THEIR TIME.
UM, GREAT CONVERSATIONS WITH, UH, DEALING WITH THE UPGRADES TO OUR CAMPUS.
REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THE LANDSCAPING AND THE, UH, BENCH ISSUES, UH, PARDON ME, UH, LANDSCAPING AND BENCH UPGRADES.
UM, E EXTREMELY EXCITED ABOUT THE PROPOSAL OF LIGHTS FOR OUR FOOTBALL FIELD.
THAT IS OUR FOOTBALL PRACTICE FIELD.
THAT'S SOMETHING THAT'S EXTREMELY IMPORTANT FOR US ON CAMPUS.
WE'RE VERY EXCITED ABOUT HAVING THE ABILITY TO, UH, PRACTICE WITH OUR STUDENTS BOTH IN THE MORNINGS AND NOW HAVING THE ABILITY TO PRACTICE WITH OUR STUDENT ATHLETES IN THE AFTERNOONS AND THE EVENINGS AS WELL.
UH, A LOT OF TIMES WE TEND TO LOSE THEM BECAUSE OF THE LIGHT AND THINGS LIKE THAT IN THE WINTERTIME.
BUT, UH, WE ARE EXTREMELY EXCITED ABOUT THAT AND THAT'LL JUST GIVE US ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY TO WORK WITH OUR STUDENTS AND, UH, TO KEEP THEM HERE ON CAMPUS WHERE WE NEED THEM.
UH, THE ONLY OTHER THING THAT I HAD, UH, A CONCERN ABOUT WAS JUST WITH OUR NEW GROVE OF TREES THAT WE HAVE JUST FOR THE PROPOSAL FOR A PATHWAY OR A COMMUNITY PATHWAY THROUGH THAT, UH, ONE OF THE MAIN IMPORTANT THINGS THAT
[00:40:01]
WE HAVE ON CAMPUS IS CAMPUS SECURITY.AND SO WE WERE JUST LOOKING TO SEE ABOUT THAT AND IF THAT COULD BE AMENDED JUST SO WE COULD SECURE THE CAMPUS.
BUT OTHER THAN THAT, I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME.
THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO SPEAK, AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO, UH, ALL THE GREAT UPDATES HERE AT SAMUEL HIGH SCHOOL.
KATIE LENAHAN, 9,400 NORTH CENTRAL EXPRESSWAY.
I HAVE A PRESENTATION, I BELIEVE MR. CROWLEY IS ASKING YOU ALL TO PULL UP TO, TO ADDRESS THE ATHLETIC LIGHTING.
I'M THE DESIGN DIRECTOR FOR CONSTRUCTION SERVICES FOR AT DALLAS I S D.
AND WE'RE INTERESTED IN INSTALLING ATHLETIC LIGHTS AT THE PRACTICE FIELD AT THIS CAMPUS.
ONE OF THE REASONS WE HAVE THIS PRESENTATION FOR IT.
NOPE, THERE, YOU, YOU JUST HAD IT.
AND IF I WANT TO SCROLL, I JUST DO THAT.
SO WE WOULD LIKE TO INTRODUCE, UM, AND INSTALL PRACTICE LIGHTS.
UH, ACTUALLY IN GENERAL AT OUR HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETIC FIELDS, THE REASON THAT WE WANT TO TAKE THIS ON IS WE WANNA EXTEND THE PRACTICE FIELD OP OPTIONS AND HOURS THAT ARE AVAILABLE TO OUR STUDENTS, INCREASE STUDENT PARTICIPATION IN EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES, PROVIDE BETTER AND SAFER PRACTICE OPTIONS FOR THE STUDENTS, AND TO PROVIDE PARITY FOR DALLAS STUDENTS WITH OUR SUBURBAN SCHOOL DISTRICTS AND PRIVATE SCHOOLS.
UH, WE'VE TAKEN A LOOK AT A NUMBER OF CASE STUDIES TO UNDERSTAND WHAT IT IS WE NEED TO CONSIDER WHEN WE'RE SPECIFYING AND INSTALLING PRACTICE FIELD LIGHTS.
THIS IMAGE RIGHT HERE ON THE FAR LEFT, THAT'S WHAT FIELD LIGHTS LOOK LIKE IN THE 1970S.
UH, ON THIS IMAGE RIGHT HERE, THIS LIGHT, YOU CAN SEE THIS POLE.
THAT'S THE LIGHT THAT WE'RE PROPOSING TO PUT ON, ON OUR ATHLETIC FIELDS.
THE LIGHT IS SHINING DIRECTLY DOWN ON THE FIELD.
WE'RE CONCERNED, AND WE'VE BEEN TRACKING THE ISSUES WITH LIGHT SPILL, LIGHT POLLUTION, AND SKY GLOW.
SO WE'VE BEEN TALKING TO VENDORS ABOUT THAT.
AS WE, UH, IDENTIFY WHICH TYPE OF LIGHTS WE WANNA USE, OUR GOAL IS TO LIGHT THE FIELDS, NOT THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
UH, WE'RE GOING TO INSTALL COMMUNITY FRIENDLY SPORTS, SLIDING TO MINIMIZE ALLOWABLE LIGHT, SPILL MANAGE HIGH GRADE GLARE, SKY GLOW EFFECTS.
THERE WILL BE CURFEW REQUIREMENTS AND UTILIZE BEST, UH, LIGHTING PRACTICES.
THE POLES ARE GONNA BE 80 FEET TALL.
THE TALLER THE POLE, THE MORE THE DIRECT, THE LIGHT ON THE FIELD, THE LESS THE LIGHT SPILL.
THIS IS THE HEAD OF THE LIGHT FIXTURE, SO YOU CAN SEE IT SHINES DIRECTLY DOWN ONTO THE FIELD.
WE'VE BEEN TAKING A LOOK AT A NUMBER OF STUDIES.
THIS IS A HEAT MAP THAT WE WERE ACTUALLY LOOKING AT FOR ANOTHER CAMPUS.
THE FOOT CANDLES AT THE PROPERTY LINE ACROSS THE STREET ON AVERAGE ARE 0.02 FOOT CANDLES.
SO TO GIVE YOU SOME CONTEXT FOR THAT, THE IMAGE ON YOUR LEFT, THAT'S 25 TO 40 FOOT CANDLES, THE IMAGE ON YOUR RIGHT, THAT'S TWO FOOT CANDLES.
WE'RE GONNA BE 0.0 TO FOOT CANDLES, PROPERTY LINE ACROSS THE STREET.
UH, AGAIN, WE WANNA LIGHT THE FIELDS, NOT THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
WE THINK THIS IS GREAT FOR OUR STUDENTS AND WE ARE HERE AND AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS ON THIS OR ANY OF OUR OTHER CASES THAT ARE HERE TODAY.
IS THERE ANYONE ELSE HERE TO SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF ITEM SIX? ANYONE ELSE HERE TO SPEAK IN OPPOSITION QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? COMMISSIONER YOUNG? UH, YES.
UH, MA'AM, IF YOU'D COME BACK, UH, WHAT ARE THE DIAMETER OF THE LIGHT POLES YOU PROPOSED TO INSTALL? OH, YOU'RE ASKING ME A QUESTION.
I DON'T KNOW, BUT I DON'T THINK THEY'RE VERY LARGE.
I DON'T, PROBABLY LIKE 12 TO 18 INCHES FOR THE POLE ITSELF.
MORE THAN 12 INCHES, I'D SAY LIKE 18 INCHES OR SOMETHING.
AND, UH, MR. CROWLEY, IF YOU HAPPEN TO KNOW, HOW DOES THAT COMPARE TO A, UH, MONOPOLE UH, CELL TOWER? WELL, I GUESS IT DEPENDS ON THE HEIGHT, BUT PROBABLY A LOWER ONE'S PROBABLY 36 INCHES ACROSS.
THERE, THERE, THAT'S A LOT MORE WEIGHT ON TOP OF THAT THAN THERE IS A L LED D LIGHT FIXTURE.
I WAS THINKING IT WOULD BE SUBSTANTIALLY LESS THAN A, UH, CELL TOWER.
WE'LL GO TO COMMISSIONER STANDARD THAN COMMISSIONER TREADAWAY.
UH, YES, MS. LENAHAN, THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRESENTATION ON THE LIGHTS.
YOU KNOW, THAT'S A BIG ISSUE WITH ME IS THAT SPILLOVER AND WHEN IT'S 80 FEET, YOU REALLY DO HAVE TO, SO I LOVE THAT YOU DID
[00:45:01]
THE FOOT CANDLE AND HOW YOU DID THIS PRESENTATION.AND NEW TECHNOLOGY SEEMS TO DO MUCH BETTER.
THE ONLY QUESTION I WOULD HAVE IS, UH, AT THESE PRACTICE FIELDS, ONE OF THE THINGS IS NOT JUST THE NIGHT DURING THE WINTER, BUT IT'S ALSO IN THE EARLY MORNINGS.
AT WHAT TIME, UH, DO YOU PLAN TO BE TURNING THESE ON IN THE MORNINGS? I THINK WE'RE LOOKING AT SIX 30 TO NINE 30.
I THOUGHT I SAW, UM, COMMISSIONER HERBERT.
UH, CURRENTLY LOOKING AT THE SITE, THERE'S A LOT OF FENCING.
FENCING ON THE FRONT, FENCING TO THE YARD, FENCING TO THE FIELD HAS, HAS FENCING AROUND THE SCHOOL BEEN THOUGHT ABOUT REDUCING? UM, AS YOU DO A LOT OF THE NEW BUILD, WE'RE PROBABLY NOT LOOKING TO REDUCE FENCING AROUND SCHOOLS.
A LOT OF THE FENCING AT THIS CAMPUS IS AROUND THE ATHLETIC FIELDS.
WE HAVE STUDENTS OUT THERE PRACTICING AND WE WANT TO ENSURE THERE'S SAFETY.
SO THERE'S, THERE'S FENCING ON THE STREET, THERE'S FENCING ON ALL THE ATHLETIC FIELDS.
UM, AND IT'S, THANK YOU FOR THE ANSWER.
BUT I WOULD LIKE FOR US TO TRY TO LOOK AT REDUCING FENCING AS WE MOVE FORWARD, BUT NEITHER ARE THEY.
UM, THE NEXT QUESTION IS, IS THERE ANY PLANS TO BEAUTIFY GREEN GREENDALE STREET? UM, THE STREET HAS A LOT OF PARKING LOT PARKING ON IT.
UM, IT SEEMS LIKE THEY'RE DOING DONUTS IN THE PARKING LOT ON GREENDALE.
UM, AND I KNOW WE TALKED ABOUT ADDING TREES IN THE FRONT PARKING, BUT IS THERE ANY PLANS TO ADD, UH, TREES TO SOME OF THE PARKING ON GREENDALE AND REMOVING THE PORTABLES THAT ARE ON PARKING ON GREENDALE? SO WE'RE NOT ABLE TO REMOVE THE PORTABLES AT THIS POINT IN TIME.
THAT'S NOT IN OUR, UM, PROJECT SCOPE.
ALTHOUGH WE WOULD LOVE TO, IF WE HAD THE BUDGET TO DO IT REGARDING THE LANDSCAPING AROUND ALONG GREENFIELD OR GREENDALE, WE'RE ACTUALLY, UH, WORKING WITH COOL SCHOOLS AND TRYING TO FIND DONORS THAT ARE GONNA PARTNER WITH THE COST FOR THE ADDITIONAL LANDSCAPING.
UH, AT THIS CAMPUS, IT'S AN EXISTING CAMPUS, SO LANDSCAPING ALONG GREENDALE WAS NOT PART OF THE CONVERSATION AND TALKING TO COOL SCHOOLS WHEN WE HAD THE, THE DISCUSSION ABOUT THE GROVE OF TREES, IT'S OUR UNDERSTANDING THAT IF YOU HAVE A GROVE OF TREES, THAT'S THE BEST WAY YOU CREATE A CARBON SINK.
SO THE GOAL FOR THE TREES IN GENERAL IS TO IMPROVE THE AIR QUALITY IN THE CITY OF DALLAS.
SO WE FELT IF WE COULD CONCENTRATE THEM IN THAT LOCATION RATHER THAN SPACING THEM AROUND THE PERIMETER OF THE SCHOOL, WE WOULD HAVE A BETTER IMPACT ON THE ENVIRONMENT IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
AND IT JUST SEEMS TO MAYBE THEY'RE GONNA BE HEALTHIER AND HAPPIER AND A GROVE.
AND THEN CARL HAS AN ANSWER TOO.
UM, JENNIFER EXPLAINED ON THIS ONE WITH THE ARTICLE 10 ARTIFICIAL LOT, WELL, PART OF THAT ARTIFICIAL LOT, THERE'S ACTUALLY TWO ART GONNA BE TWO ARTIFICIAL LOTS.
AND, AND I DON'T HAVE THE SITE PLAN.
I COULD, BUT IT'S NOT WORTH IT.
THERE'S A FIRE LANE THAT CONNECTS A PRAIRIE CREEK AND PALISADES FOR THE ADDITION.
SO THERE'LL BE TREES ALONG THAT, CUZ THAT'S PART OF AN ARTIFICIAL LOT MORE THAN 2000 SQUARE FEET OF PAVEMENT.
SO THERE'LL BE TREES ALONG THERE.
BUT THE OTHER ARTIFICIAL LOT, WHICH IS THE REAL SORT OF ARTIFICIAL LOT IF THAT MAKES SENSE, IS FOR THIS, UH, GYMNASIUM.
WELL THAT HAS, IT HAS TO TOUCH THE STREET IN THAT SENSE.
THERE'LL BE SOME ADDITIONAL TREES.
WILL THERE BE A, A GROVE OF TREES? NO, THERE WON'T BE.
UM, AND, AND SHE MENTIONED ABOUT THE PORTABLES.
THE OTHER ISSUE THAT COMES UP TO HAND IS, IS PARKING LOTS AND SCREENING.
I KNOW YOU MENTIONED LIKE TO REMOVE FENCES AND I'M SURE YOU UNDERSTAND THE SECURITY INVOLVED IN SCHOOLS AND FENCES.
AND THERE'S ALSO THE SECURITY INVOLVED.
AND IF I PUT TALL BARRIERS AROUND PARKING LOTS TOO, IT GIVES HIDING PLACES AND STUFF.
SO WE'LL LOOK AT, THERE IS SOME, UH, SHRUBS ALONG GREENDALE MORE TOWARDS THE BASEBALL FIELD.
UM, AND ACTUALLY ONE OF THE, AS I RECALL JENNIFER, ONE OF THE AMENITY AREAS IS BY THAT BASEBALL FIELD.
SO WE'RE GONNA HAVE, BECAUSE PEOPLE WOULD CONGREGATE WATCHING A BASEBALL GAME.
SO WE'RE GONNA PROVIDE A LITTLE SORT OF BENCH AREA THERE TOO TO SORT OF SOFTEN SOMEWHAT ON GREENDALE.
AND, AND PALISADES WILL HAVE TREES ACTUALLY ON BOTH SIDES OF PALISADES.
AND THERE IS A LOT OF TREES IN FRONT OF THAT SCHOOL.
BUT WE'RE ALSO GONNA ADD INTO THE GAP SO THAT, UM, IT'S NOT GONNA BE A A TURTLE CREEK BOULEVARD, BUT IT'LL BE A BOULEVARD EVENTUALLY, UH, 50 YEARS, IF THAT SCHOOL REACHES A HUNDRED YEARS OR SOMETHING, THERE'LL BE SOME VERY LARGE TREES ALONG BOTH SIDES OF PALISADE.
SO THAT, THAT'S SORT OF THE CONCENTRATION THERE SINCE THAT'S THE FRONT DOOR AND REALLY WHERE THE PICKUP AND DROP OFF SORT OF CONCENTRATES.
UM, AND I'LL MAKE COMMENT AFTER.
AND I APOLOGIZE IF I MISSED THIS OUTREACH WAS DONE TO THE HOMEOWNERS ON THE, IF I'M LOOKING AT IT, THE RIGHT SIDE
[00:50:01]
OF THE, ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE PLAY FIELD.WE HAD A COMMUNITY MEETING AT I'LL, I'M SURE IT WAS LAST YEAR.
AND YOU SPECIFICALLY INVITED THOSE HOMEOWNERS? UH, YEAH.
EVERYBODY WITHIN 500 FEET, THE SAME NOTIFICATION THE CITY HAD, WE USED THE CITY'S NOTIFICATION.
JUST ONE QUICK FOLLOW UP QUESTION FOR MS. LENAHAN.
I MAY HAVE MISSED IT IN MY EMAIL, BUT WOULD YOU BE WILLING TO SHARE THAT LIGHTING, UH, POWERPOINT THAT YOU, YOU USED TODAY WITH THE COMMISSION? I THINK IT WAS VERY USEFUL AND INFORMATIVE.
AND I WOULD LIKE TO ADD, WE'RE ACTUALLY GETTING PHOTOMETRICS FOR ALL THE SCHOOLS THAT WE WANNA DO THIS TO, SO WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT BEING GOOD NEIGHBORS.
I'LL FORWARD THAT TO, UM, TO YOU JENNIFER, AND THEN OR YOLANDA, AND YOU CAN DISTRIBUTE TO EVERYBODY.
UM, COMMISSIONERS, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? ALRIGHT, QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? SEEING NONE, MR. CHAIR, DO YOU HAVE A MOTION? I DO HAVE A MOTION, UH, IN THE MATTER OF Z 2 12 2 76, I MOVE TO CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING, FALSE STAFF RECOMMENDATION OF APPROVAL SUBJECT TO A RISE DEVELOPMENT PLAN, A REVISED TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN AND CONDITIONS AS BRIEF, INCLUDING THE ADJUSTMENT TO THE TMP IS SUGGESTED BY, UH, COMMISSIONER YOUNG.
I HAVE JUST VERY, VERY BRIEF COMMENTS MR. CHAIR.
I THINK STAFF'S RECOMMENDATION WAS JUST A TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN? THAT'S CORRECT.
JUST A TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN? THAT'S CORRECT.
THANK YOU MR. CHAIR FOR YOUR MOTION.
UM, COMMISSIONER HAMPTON FOR YOUR SECOND, ANY DISCUSSION? YES, I, I JUST WANTED TO, UH, THANK STAFF FIRST.
UH, MS. ALGAR DID AN OUTSTANDING JOB HERE, MR. CROWLEY, THE D I S D TEAM, UH, JANET MONIER AT TEXAS TREES, ALL THE, THE COOL SCHOOLS TEAM.
UM, THIS PROJECT HAS COME A LONG, LONG WAY, JUST IN FACT, THE LAST TWO WEEKS.
UH, AND SO I VERY MUCH APPRECIATE THAT.
UM, THIS, THIS PROJECT'S GONNA HAVE IN IMPROVED OPERATIONS ALMOST ALL THE WAY AROUND.
AND REALLY, THIS, THIS SITE IS JUST ABOUT THE TREES.
UH, THAT WAS THE, THE BIG POINT HERE, AND THAT WAS KIND OF THE, UH, THE, THE DIFFICULTY IN GETTING IT ACROSS THE FINISH LINE.
BUT I'M, I'M VERY PLEASED THAT WE WHERE WE ARE TODAY, AND I'M VERY HAPPY TO SUPPORT IT.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS, COMMISSIONER HERBERT? YES, I I'LL BE SUPPORTING THE MOTION, BUT I DO WANT TO, UM, TASK THE I S D AND OUR PLANNERS TO THINK ABOUT, UM, THOSE FENCES, RIGHT? AND, AND THE STUDIES AROUND FENCING, AROUND SCHOOLS, UH, THAT DON'T LOCK THE GATES DON'T CLOSE, RIGHT? SO HOW, HOW MUCH SECURITY IS ONE WAY IN AND ONE WAY OUT OF ATHLETIC FIELDS.
HOW, HOW MUCH CAN WE HAVE STUDIES THAT SHOW, UM, SHOW THAT? AND, UM, THAT'S ALL JUST, I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT I'M TASKING YOU ALL TO THINK ABOUT THAT.
AND FOR OUR PRINCIPALS TO TASK YOU ALL, TO, UM, REMOVE DOORS, PORT THOSE PORTABLES AS A STUDENT WHO HAD TO LIVE IN THEM AND, UH, BE EDUCATED IN THEM.
SO, UM, JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT.
ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? ALL RIGHT.
UM, WE HAVE A MOTION BY THE CHAIR, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER HAMPTON, UH, TO FILE STAFF'S RECOMMENDATION OF APPROVAL SUBJECT TO A REVISED DEVELOPMENT PLAN, A TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN AND CONDITIONS AS BRIEFED WITH COMMISSIONER YOUNG'S CHANGE AS TO THE TIMING FOR THE TMP.
ANY OPPOSED? NAY, THE MOTION CARRIES.

COMMISSIONER TREADAWAY, SINCE WE'RE REQUESTING A CHANGE FROM A D TO A D ONE OVERLAY TO PERMIT ALCOHOL, CAN YOU TELL US WHAT OTHER USES PERMIT ALCOHOL IN THE VICINITY? YES.
SO THE ONLY, UH, OVERLAY DISTRICT WE HAVE IN DALLAS THAT RESTRICTS THE SALE OF ALCOHOL IS THE D OR THE D ONE.
UM, OTHERWISE, UH, THE SALE OF ALCOHOL WOULD JUST BE CONSIDERED A TYPICAL RETAIL USE.
UM, IT'S ONLY WHEN A D OVERLAY IS PRESENT THAT ALCOHOL SALES ARE NOT PERMITTED AT ALL.

YEAH, I'D HAVE TO LOOK UP, UH, THAT AREA ON THE ZONING MAP, WHICH THANKS TO OUR LOVELY NETWORK OUTAGE IS RUNNING REALLY SLOWLY RIGHT NOW.

AND SO THAT IS WHY WE ARE REQUESTING A D ONE OVERLAY.
UM, CURRENTLY THERE ARE NO PLANS TO SELL LIQUOR.
UM, WE DID MEET WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION AND I BELIEVE I GAVE, UH, CITY PLANNER, UH, MULKEY A, UH, PRINTOUT OF AN EMAIL CHAIN FROM THE CITY, UH, FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS.
UH, THERE WERE HAMPTON HILLS, UH, WINTE HEIGHTS AND, UH, THE NORTH CLIP NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS, AND THEY ALL DID A VOTE AND HAD A UNANIMOUS APPROVAL OF THE ITEM.

UM, WE'VE GOT A GREAT RESPONSE FROM THE NEIGHBORS WHO ENJOYED MEETING THE PROPERTY OWNERS, LEARNING THAT THEY ALSO OWN THE, UM, SOMEWHAT NEW CONVENIENCE STORE DOWN THE STREET THAT ALSO SELLS BEER AND WINE.
UM, AND THEY REALLY CLEANED UP THAT PROPERTY.
THEY RECENTLY PURCHASED THIS PROPERTY AND LET US KNOW THAT THEY HAD KEPT THE CONVENIENCE STORE OPEN DURING THE SNOWPOCALYPSE TO HELP MAKE SURE EVERYONE WAS ABLE TO ACCESS FOOD IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
UM, IT, SO IT WAS REALLY GREAT TO JUST MAKE THAT CONNECTION WITH THE PROPERTY OWNERS AND TALK TO THEM ABOUT OTHER IMPROVEMENTS THEY COULD MAKE TO THE PROPERTY, SUCH AS SCREENING THEIR TRASH, POTENTIALLY, UM, INCLUDING A MURAL ON THEIR WEST FACING WALL.
SO IT WAS A GREAT CONNECTION AND, UM, I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO A CONTINUED RELATIONSHIP WITH THESE PROPERTY OWNERS.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MS. POPKIN.
COMMISSIONER POPKIN IS, ANY OTHER COMMENTS? SEE NONE.
COMMISSIONERS WILL MOVE TO CASE NUMBER EIGHT HAS NOT BEEN BRIEF.
WE'LL BEGIN WITH THE BRIEFING AND MS. MUNOZ ONLINE.
SETH, WE HAVE BRIEFED THIS ONE BEFORE.
CERTAINLY I'LL GO AHEAD AND START FROM THE DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS SO THAT WE CAN DISCUSS THE CHANGES THAT WERE MADE.
[01:05:08]
SO THE REVISIONS MADE SINCE THE LAST TIME IT WAS AT CPC ON FIVE 18 INCLUDE PROVIDING, UM, UM, A FRONT YARD REQUIRED F 15 FEET ALONG SUNSET AVENUE AND A WESTERN SIDE YARD SETBACK OF FIVE FEET, AN INCREASE IN THE MIXED INCOME HOUSING PROVIDED OF TO 10% FROM 5%, UM, GARAGE FACADE REQUIREMENTS.UH, SO ALL THE DESIGN STANDARDS THAT APPLY TO THE MAIN STRUCTURE SINCE THE GARAGE IS GOING TO BE THE FIRST FLOOR, THEY WOULD ALSO APPLY ALL THOSE DESIGN STANDARDS TO THE FIRST FLOOR OF THE GARAGE PARKING AS WELL.
AND THEN FINALLY, UM, EV PARKING REQUIREMENTS.
AND THEN ADDITIONALLY, SINCE THE DOCKET POSTING, WE MADE EDITS TO CLARIFY THE EV AND PARKING STRUCTURE FACADE TREATMENT, AND MADE A CORRECTION TO REMOVE A REFERENCE TO ZANG BOULEVARD.
BUT OVERALL, YOU SEE HERE THE DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS AND AS THEY'VE CHANGED THERE, THE ALL THE BLUE HIGHLIGHTS, AS I MENTIONED RIGHT NOW, AND STAFF RECOMMENDATION REMAINS APPROVAL AND IT WOULD BE SUBJECT TO THE CONDITIONS AS BRIEFED.
ANY QUESTIONS ON THIS ITEM? YES.
UM, MRS. MUNOZ, I JUST WANTED TO BRIEFLY GO OVER THE, UH, FACADE DESIGN REQUIREMENTS THAT YOU AND I HAD TALKED THROUGH.
