WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.000
 - Good afternoon and welcome to the City of Denton's

00:00:05.000 --> 00:00:12.360
 planning and zoning work session for Wednesday,

00:00:12.360 --> 00:00:16.160
 October 12th, 2022 at 5.01 with a quorum present,

00:00:16.160 --> 00:00:18.320
 I will call us to order.

00:00:18.320 --> 00:00:21.400
 The first item on our work session agenda

00:00:21.400 --> 00:00:24.780
 is citizen comment for the consent agenda.

00:00:24.780 --> 00:00:29.640
 Is there anyone here wishing to speak on the consent agenda?

00:00:30.880 --> 00:00:35.520
 Okay, seeing none, we'll go ahead and move to clarification

00:00:35.520 --> 00:00:38.240
 of items on our agenda.

00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:43.240
 First thing is our minutes for the 28th.

00:00:43.240 --> 00:00:45.080
 Anything on that?

00:00:45.080 --> 00:00:48.680
 Okay.

00:00:48.680 --> 00:00:50.840
 Any questions from the commission on the consent agenda?

00:00:50.840 --> 00:00:53.760
 We've got one preliminary plait.

00:00:56.120 --> 00:01:00.360
 Okay, then items for individual consideration.

00:01:00.360 --> 00:01:05.240
 The first one is the P&Z calendar for 2023.

00:01:05.240 --> 00:01:08.880
 Haley, do you have something to say on that?

00:01:08.880 --> 00:01:09.720
 - Yeah, I was just gonna add,

00:01:09.720 --> 00:01:11.400
 we do have a separate work session item for that,

00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:13.000
 so we can skip that for now

00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:14.360
 and we'll come back to it at the work session.

00:01:14.360 --> 00:01:16.540
 - That sounds great, okay, perfect.

00:01:16.540 --> 00:01:23.340
 Item four B, I'll go ahead and invite Mia up on that one.

00:01:24.120 --> 00:01:28.120
 That was one I believe we did get an email on

00:01:28.120 --> 00:01:30.280
 that has changed from our original backup.

00:01:30.280 --> 00:01:32.080
 - Yes, correct.

00:01:32.080 --> 00:01:34.520
 So this is a final plait for

00:01:34.520 --> 00:01:37.200
 Razor Ranch Town Center addition,

00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:39.120
 and essentially they are wanting to establish

00:01:39.120 --> 00:01:40.740
 the easements associated with the development

00:01:40.740 --> 00:01:41.800
 of the Razor Ranch Town Center.

00:01:41.800 --> 00:01:43.880
 It's located south of West University,

00:01:43.880 --> 00:01:48.460
 just east of I-35 in the Razor Ranch South Campus,

00:01:48.460 --> 00:01:50.100
 and since the report went out,

00:01:50.100 --> 00:01:52.520
 staff was able to work to make sure that

00:01:52.520 --> 00:01:53.860
 they satisfied all the right comments,

00:01:53.860 --> 00:01:55.400
 so we are recommending approval.

00:01:55.400 --> 00:01:56.240
 - Okay, great.

00:01:56.240 --> 00:01:59.980
 Any questions from the commission on that?

00:01:59.980 --> 00:02:01.600
 Okay, thanks, Mia.

00:02:01.600 --> 00:02:05.200
 Four B, no, that was four B, excuse me.

00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:08.520
 Four C, that was another one that we got an email on,

00:02:08.520 --> 00:02:10.220
 and I'll let Julie explain that.

00:02:10.220 --> 00:02:15.160
 - Good evening, Julie Wyatt,

00:02:15.160 --> 00:02:17.680
 senior planner with the City of Denton.

00:02:17.680 --> 00:02:20.780
 This is a preliminary plait for the Audreau subdivision.

00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:24.960
 Staff's original recommendation was for denial.

00:02:24.960 --> 00:02:26.960
 They had two issues that they had to address

00:02:26.960 --> 00:02:28.440
 in order to get to approval.

00:02:28.440 --> 00:02:30.300
 They have satisfied those comments,

00:02:30.300 --> 00:02:33.280
 and so staff is now recommending approval of this plait.

00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:34.680
 I'll be happy to answer any questions.

00:02:34.680 --> 00:02:35.720
 - Thanks, Julie. - Thank you.

00:02:35.720 --> 00:02:36.560
 - Any questions?

00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:41.480
 Okay, and if you did not see the email that came out,

00:02:41.480 --> 00:02:43.160
 four D has been withdrawn,

00:02:43.160 --> 00:02:46.020
 so we will not be taking action on that today.

00:02:46.020 --> 00:02:50.560
 That will take us to our public hearings for this evening.

00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:51.840
 Did Sean walk in?

00:02:52.880 --> 00:02:54.360
 There you are, hi.

00:02:54.360 --> 00:02:56.760
 Do you wanna give a quick synopsis of our first one?

00:02:56.760 --> 00:02:58.360
 I believe that, yeah.

00:02:58.360 --> 00:03:00.180
 You are up first, please.

00:03:00.180 --> 00:03:15.000
 Just make sure I pull this up.

00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:17.960
 Okay.

00:03:22.920 --> 00:03:25.920
 All right, good evening, chair and members of the commission.

00:03:25.920 --> 00:03:30.920
 So this is a request for a zoning change

00:03:30.920 --> 00:03:34.640
 from mixed-use residential to light industrial zoning.

00:03:34.640 --> 00:03:37.240
 This is out on properties located

00:03:37.240 --> 00:03:42.240
 between Barthol Road and FM 1173, about 53 acres there.

00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:45.840
 It is mostly undeveloped, one single-family lot

00:03:45.840 --> 00:03:47.860
 and one-plugged gas station.

00:03:47.860 --> 00:03:49.200
 It's a three-story building,

00:03:49.200 --> 00:03:53.400
 undeveloped, one single-family lot and one-plugged gas well.

00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:56.360
 The applicant's proposed use is industrial, of course.

00:03:56.360 --> 00:03:58.200
 Any use permitted in the LI Zoning District

00:03:58.200 --> 00:04:01.200
 would be permitted, and staff is in support

00:04:01.200 --> 00:04:03.120
 because this does meet our future land use

00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:05.400
 of light industrial and as well

00:04:05.400 --> 00:04:07.040
 as our comprehensive plan goals.

00:04:07.040 --> 00:04:08.280
 Happy to answer any questions.

00:04:08.280 --> 00:04:09.280
 - Perfect.

00:04:09.280 --> 00:04:10.520
 Do we have any questions?

00:04:10.520 --> 00:04:14.080
 Okay, perfect.

00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:16.200
 Thank you very much.

00:04:16.200 --> 00:04:21.200
 Taking us to 5B, and Angie is here for that one.

00:04:21.200 --> 00:04:23.760
 Hello.

00:04:23.760 --> 00:04:26.960
 - Hi, good evening.

00:04:26.960 --> 00:04:28.240
 Get this pulled up.

00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:37.480
 This is a zoning change request Z220014.

00:04:37.480 --> 00:04:40.960
 The proposed request is for approximately 84.9 acres

00:04:40.960 --> 00:04:43.760
 of land situated on East McKinney Street.

00:04:43.760 --> 00:04:46.360
 It has a current zoning of rural residential.

00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:49.120
 There's some mixed-use neighborhood

00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:52.160
 as well as some R4 on the subject property.

00:04:52.160 --> 00:04:53.760
 It is predominantly undeveloped

00:04:53.760 --> 00:04:55.360
 on the eastern portion of the property.

00:04:55.360 --> 00:04:58.320
 There are three detached single-family dwellings.

00:04:58.320 --> 00:05:00.560
 In the southwest corner of the subject property,

00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:02.960
 there is some existing FEMA floodplain

00:05:02.960 --> 00:05:06.260
 as well as a 50-foot wide Atmos gas easement.

00:05:06.260 --> 00:05:10.680
 The proposed zoning district for this project is R6

00:05:10.680 --> 00:05:12.480
 to facilitate the development

00:05:12.480 --> 00:05:14.960
 of a single-family residential neighborhood.

00:05:14.960 --> 00:05:19.320
 Staff is recommending approval of this request.

00:05:19.320 --> 00:05:22.360
 It is consistent with the future land use designation

00:05:22.360 --> 00:05:24.400
 of low residential and complies

00:05:24.400 --> 00:05:26.800
 with our approval criteria in subchapter two.

00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:29.520
 - Great, thank you, Angie.

00:05:29.520 --> 00:05:30.880
 Questions on this one?

00:05:30.880 --> 00:05:37.400
 Okay, thank you very much.

00:05:37.400 --> 00:05:42.400
 With regard to 5C, that item is needing to be postponed.

00:05:42.840 --> 00:05:44.240
 We are gonna open the public hearing.

00:05:44.240 --> 00:05:45.840
 It's not going to be re-noticed.

00:05:45.840 --> 00:05:48.560
 The signs have been placed on the property already.

00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:50.840
 So I will open the public hearing, leave it open,

00:05:50.840 --> 00:05:53.320
 and then we'll, for a motion to postpone it

00:05:53.320 --> 00:05:56.120
 to a date certain of October 26th.

00:05:56.120 --> 00:05:58.120
 Okay, any questions with regard to that?

00:05:58.120 --> 00:06:01.520
 Okay, okay, awesome.

00:06:01.520 --> 00:06:03.120
 Then that takes us through our agenda.

00:06:03.120 --> 00:06:05.840
 We'll get into our work session reports.

00:06:05.840 --> 00:06:10.280
 3A, PZ 22, 232.

00:06:10.280 --> 00:06:12.600
 We're gonna receive a report and hold a discussion

00:06:12.600 --> 00:06:15.040
 on our updates of our criteria manuals.

00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:18.580
 I'm not sure who is going first on this.

00:06:18.580 --> 00:06:21.960
 Good afternoon.

00:06:21.960 --> 00:06:22.880
 - Good afternoon.

00:06:22.880 --> 00:06:29.560
 So thank you everybody for letting me come here

00:06:29.560 --> 00:06:31.800
 and speak to you about the criteria manuals.

00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:32.880
 My name is Brett Bourgeois.

00:06:32.880 --> 00:06:34.240
 I am the Deputy City Engineer

00:06:34.240 --> 00:06:36.920
 in the Capital Projects and Engineering Department.

00:06:37.840 --> 00:06:40.440
 And so we're gonna talk about the criteria manuals

00:06:40.440 --> 00:06:41.480
 that we have.

00:06:41.480 --> 00:06:43.320
 We go through an update process.

00:06:43.320 --> 00:06:45.480
 We're gonna lay out what our public outreach plan is,

00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:48.240
 including this meeting, what our background was

00:06:48.240 --> 00:06:50.360
 in terms of having to develop these criteria manuals

00:06:50.360 --> 00:06:51.560
 and make edits to them.

00:06:51.560 --> 00:06:54.680
 Walk through some highlight revisions

00:06:54.680 --> 00:06:57.840
 to each criteria manual, then lay out our next steps.

00:06:57.840 --> 00:07:00.480
 In addition to myself, we brought various experts

00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:02.280
 from different departments to answer any questions

00:07:02.280 --> 00:07:03.480
 that you may have.

00:07:03.480 --> 00:07:07.080
 So as you can see, we have a pretty extensive

00:07:07.080 --> 00:07:09.360
 public outreach plan laid out.

00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:11.080
 Starting tonight, we're gonna do

00:07:11.080 --> 00:07:12.880
 the Planning and Zoning Commission.

00:07:12.880 --> 00:07:14.920
 Tomorrow, we'll do Developer Town Hall.

00:07:14.920 --> 00:07:18.360
 Then we publish the manuals online on Friday

00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:19.400
 for public comment.

00:07:19.400 --> 00:07:22.480
 So we're, various meetings going to all the boards

00:07:22.480 --> 00:07:24.720
 and commissions before we go to the city council

00:07:24.720 --> 00:07:26.920
 in December and hold a public hearing

00:07:26.920 --> 00:07:30.480
 and go for adoption to take effect on January 1st.

00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:34.440
 So a little bit of background.

00:07:34.440 --> 00:07:36.120
 The criteria manuals went for several years

00:07:36.120 --> 00:07:37.440
 while being updated.

00:07:37.440 --> 00:07:40.320
 Last year, they did a revision, an update to them

00:07:40.320 --> 00:07:42.600
 that was led by, I believe, Becky and Scott McDonald

00:07:42.600 --> 00:07:44.160
 and some other folks.

00:07:44.160 --> 00:07:45.680
 One of the tasks we want to do

00:07:45.680 --> 00:07:48.160
 is make periodic updates throughout every year.

00:07:48.160 --> 00:07:49.960
 We do annual updates on it.

00:07:49.960 --> 00:07:52.640
 And so to do that process, we kicked off

00:07:52.640 --> 00:07:54.760
 in about April, weekly meetings.

00:07:54.760 --> 00:07:57.000
 We held meetings every Thursday from 10 a.m.

00:07:57.000 --> 00:08:00.000
 until 12 p.m., so a two-hour block in the morning.

00:08:00.000 --> 00:08:02.600
 We got all departments represented in the meeting.

00:08:02.600 --> 00:08:04.680
 Went through every manual, every criteria manual,

00:08:04.680 --> 00:08:06.640
 every detail on it.

00:08:06.640 --> 00:08:08.000
 Spent several weeks on each manual,

00:08:08.000 --> 00:08:10.720
 so we went in pretty good depth on them.

00:08:10.720 --> 00:08:13.840
 And so that was done over the course of the spring.

00:08:13.840 --> 00:08:15.080
 The summertime, we actually went through

00:08:15.080 --> 00:08:16.960
 and made those edits and updates.

00:08:16.960 --> 00:08:18.840
 And now we're starting here with our public outreach

00:08:18.840 --> 00:08:20.480
 and to present what we're doing

00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:22.840
 in terms of modifications to that.

00:08:22.840 --> 00:08:25.880
 Again, we're here to get public comments

00:08:25.880 --> 00:08:27.840
 and go that direction in addition to posting

00:08:27.840 --> 00:08:30.560
 on the website for comment to the public.

00:08:30.560 --> 00:08:32.680
 We're also gonna publish and post in the newspaper

00:08:32.680 --> 00:08:34.320
 that we are updating the criteria manuals

00:08:34.320 --> 00:08:37.880
 to get additional comments from the public.

00:08:37.880 --> 00:08:39.960
 And then one of the things that we noticed

00:08:39.960 --> 00:08:41.960
 in terms of going through the criteria manual updates

00:08:41.960 --> 00:08:44.600
 is that we had various different formats.

00:08:44.600 --> 00:08:45.960
 We had different styles.

00:08:45.960 --> 00:08:49.240
 We had conflict of information across the criteria manuals.

00:08:49.240 --> 00:08:50.840
 We had information repeated.

00:08:50.840 --> 00:08:53.400
 So one of our goals is to eventually

00:08:53.400 --> 00:08:54.880
 combine these into one document,

00:08:54.880 --> 00:08:57.720
 just like how we had the development code,

00:08:57.720 --> 00:09:00.520
 where it's one document for all developers to use

00:09:00.520 --> 00:09:02.720
 with different chapters for every subject that we're going on.

00:09:02.720 --> 00:09:04.960
 So that's one of our goals towards next year

00:09:04.960 --> 00:09:07.480
 is to simplify this, make it more coherent

00:09:07.480 --> 00:09:09.480
 and a little bit easier for everybody to use.

00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:12.360
 So a little bit of highlight

00:09:12.360 --> 00:09:14.520
 in terms of what the criteria manuals are.

00:09:14.520 --> 00:09:17.520
 The Denton Development Code

00:09:17.520 --> 00:09:19.560
 is our policy and procedure documents.

00:09:19.560 --> 00:09:22.560
 It lays out the guiding principles that the city wants.

00:09:22.560 --> 00:09:23.920
 It goes through the procedure

00:09:23.920 --> 00:09:25.360
 so everybody develops the same way

00:09:25.360 --> 00:09:27.160
 and everything gets done the same way.

00:09:27.160 --> 00:09:30.120
 The criteria manuals are really the design details

00:09:30.120 --> 00:09:32.880
 and technical information on how to actually achieve

00:09:32.880 --> 00:09:35.760
 those developmental goals.

00:09:35.760 --> 00:09:37.840
 In addition to that, we have the standard specifications

00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:40.240
 and standard details that get even more into the minutia

00:09:40.240 --> 00:09:43.920
 in terms of this is how you actually build these connections,

00:09:43.920 --> 00:09:47.120
 build these roadways, the details of how they're laid out.

00:09:47.120 --> 00:09:50.080
 So we have different levels of documents.

00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:51.680
 And you can kind of see how we have it laid out

00:09:51.680 --> 00:09:55.880
 where the Denton Development Code provides the guidance.

00:09:55.880 --> 00:09:57.320
 The design, the criteria manuals

00:09:57.320 --> 00:09:59.120
 give us the technical details.

00:09:59.120 --> 00:10:01.440
 The specifications tell us how it's supposed to be built

00:10:01.440 --> 00:10:03.240
 and the standard details show us

00:10:03.240 --> 00:10:05.480
 how it actually gets implemented.

00:10:05.480 --> 00:10:10.360
 So in terms of the Solid Waste Criteria Manual,

00:10:10.360 --> 00:10:12.600
 last year they did a full rewrite of their manual.

00:10:12.600 --> 00:10:17.200
 So the previous revisions was in 2008, I believe.

00:10:17.200 --> 00:10:19.520
 So they basically did a full rewrite of it last year.

00:10:19.520 --> 00:10:22.000
 So this year was actually our shortest meeting on it.

00:10:22.000 --> 00:10:23.640
 They think they had two comments,

00:10:23.640 --> 00:10:26.360
 said we wrote it last year, we're very happy with it.

00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:28.080
 Let's make a couple of clarifications.

00:10:28.080 --> 00:10:29.880
 One of the clarifications was,

00:10:29.880 --> 00:10:32.360
 hey, we had a paragraph previously that stated

00:10:32.360 --> 00:10:35.160
 the city was the sole provider of solid waste

00:10:35.160 --> 00:10:37.320
 and recycling services within the city.

00:10:37.320 --> 00:10:39.520
 We removed that and now we're getting questions on that.

00:10:39.520 --> 00:10:42.160
 Let's put that back in to solidify that.

00:10:42.160 --> 00:10:44.880
 We provide all this recycling and solid waste services,

00:10:44.880 --> 00:10:45.960
 even during construction.

00:10:45.960 --> 00:10:48.320
 So we added that back into the criteria manual

00:10:48.320 --> 00:10:50.040
 to clarify that.

00:10:50.040 --> 00:10:52.920
 Another thing was that they wanted to add a single enclosure

00:10:52.920 --> 00:10:55.720
 to the end as an option,

00:10:55.720 --> 00:10:58.200
 they wanted to add a single enclosure in addition to a

00:10:58.200 --> 00:11:01.640
 roll-off compacted enclosure for multi-family developments.

00:11:01.640 --> 00:11:03.760
 Gives more flexibility for the developments

00:11:03.760 --> 00:11:05.080
 that they've noticed.

00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:08.560
 And we've also reduced the alleyway minimum width,

00:11:08.560 --> 00:11:11.640
 paved section down to 15 feet from 20 feet.

00:11:11.640 --> 00:11:13.720
 That's consistent with other jurisdictions.

00:11:13.720 --> 00:11:15.520
 It's also consistent with our mobility plan

00:11:15.520 --> 00:11:17.520
 and our transportation criteria.

00:11:17.520 --> 00:11:20.440
 So we kind of had this gap in there that we solidified

00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:23.000
 all the information across different manuals.

00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:29.000
 For the stormwater criteria manual, we went through it.

00:11:29.000 --> 00:11:31.720
 We noticed that there are several definitions and terms

00:11:31.720 --> 00:11:34.200
 throughout the document that were not defined

00:11:34.200 --> 00:11:35.640
 and were causing some confusion.

00:11:35.640 --> 00:11:38.000
 So we went through and defined all those terms properly

00:11:38.000 --> 00:11:41.440
 throughout the definitions portion of the document.

00:11:41.440 --> 00:11:45.200
 We also went through and we noticed that all development,

00:11:45.200 --> 00:11:47.360
 all projects had to be designed to what's called

00:11:47.360 --> 00:11:48.600
 the flood mitigation event,

00:11:48.600 --> 00:11:51.720
 which is essentially the 100 year flood storm.

00:11:51.720 --> 00:11:54.000
 Where we were doing project either internally

00:11:54.000 --> 00:11:58.640
 or in downtown urban areas, it became so cost prohibitive

00:11:58.640 --> 00:12:01.560
 and restrictive in terms of developing those projects

00:12:01.560 --> 00:12:04.560
 that the stormwater aspect made it impossible

00:12:04.560 --> 00:12:06.080
 to actually get any work done.

00:12:06.080 --> 00:12:07.600
 So we talked about it and we realized,

00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:11.400
 hey, any incremental upgrade is better than no upgrade.

00:12:11.400 --> 00:12:13.480
 And so we allowed some language in there

00:12:13.480 --> 00:12:16.080
 for replacement of existing structures

00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:17.880
 or modification of existing structures.

00:12:17.880 --> 00:12:20.560
 We can allow for a smaller improvement

00:12:20.560 --> 00:12:22.080
 with the permission of the city engineer

00:12:22.080 --> 00:12:23.120
 and engineering department.

00:12:23.120 --> 00:12:25.160
 So it gives us some flexibility

00:12:25.160 --> 00:12:26.960
 to allow for redevelopment downtown.

00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:29.480
 It gives us some flexibility for our own internal projects

00:12:29.480 --> 00:12:32.960
 and streets to offer smaller improvements

00:12:32.960 --> 00:12:35.080
 that are still getting us a better product

00:12:35.080 --> 00:12:36.720
 instead of having this massive improvement

00:12:36.720 --> 00:12:38.600
 that makes the projects unattainable

00:12:38.600 --> 00:12:39.960
 and impossible to complete.

00:12:39.960 --> 00:12:42.960
 And one of the things we also found

00:12:42.960 --> 00:12:46.040
 is that our standard specifications restrict us

00:12:46.040 --> 00:12:49.240
 from using corrugated metal pipe culverts and driveways.

00:12:49.240 --> 00:12:51.200
 However, that was still added in our criteria manual.

00:12:51.200 --> 00:12:52.600
 So we struck that from there as well.

00:12:52.600 --> 00:12:55.240
 So that way we're consistent with our standard practice

00:12:55.240 --> 00:12:56.560
 across all documents.

00:12:56.560 --> 00:13:01.520
 So as you're probably all aware

00:13:01.520 --> 00:13:05.400
 is that we adopted the mobility plan in March of this year.

00:13:05.400 --> 00:13:06.360
 And so as part of that,

00:13:06.360 --> 00:13:08.760
 we define all the roadway cross-sections,

00:13:08.760 --> 00:13:10.280
 roadway requirements.

00:13:10.280 --> 00:13:12.120
 And so we updated the geometric standards

00:13:12.120 --> 00:13:14.920
 of our transportation and our transportation criteria manual

00:13:14.920 --> 00:13:16.880
 to match the mobility plan

00:13:16.880 --> 00:13:20.840
 in terms of road sections with the lane characteristics.

00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:22.440
 We also added turn lane warrants.

00:13:22.440 --> 00:13:24.320
 So when we have one installed turn lanes,

00:13:24.320 --> 00:13:27.440
 we had no defined procedure for this to work.

00:13:27.440 --> 00:13:31.880
 And so we lined out the procedure, the warrant counts.

00:13:31.880 --> 00:13:33.160
 How do we make it standardized

00:13:33.160 --> 00:13:34.120
 so that way we can define

00:13:34.120 --> 00:13:35.800
 how big the turn lanes are supposed to be,

00:13:35.800 --> 00:13:37.120
 how long they're supposed to be,

00:13:37.120 --> 00:13:40.920
 and if that roadway actually needs a turn in that location.

00:13:40.920 --> 00:13:44.400
 We also updated our on-street parking standards.

00:13:44.400 --> 00:13:47.760
 We were already designing them

00:13:47.760 --> 00:13:51.120
 to ADA and PROAG requirements, but it wasn't clear.

00:13:51.120 --> 00:13:54.360
 And so we just added that we're following

00:13:54.360 --> 00:13:56.960
 the ADA and PROAG standards.

00:13:56.960 --> 00:13:59.760
 We updated the cross-sections, the details for those,

00:13:59.760 --> 00:14:02.560
 the width, the access points, all those types of things.

00:14:02.560 --> 00:14:07.360
 We also added as part of our safety push within the city,

00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:10.560
 vision zero and mobility plan, other things.

00:14:10.560 --> 00:14:12.240
 We've added safety assessment

00:14:12.240 --> 00:14:14.440
 as part of our traffic impact analysis.

00:14:14.440 --> 00:14:17.760
 So not only do they have to look at the trip generation,

00:14:17.760 --> 00:14:20.160
 the amount of turns, intersections are being impacted,

00:14:20.160 --> 00:14:21.920
 but also look at it from a safety standpoint

00:14:21.920 --> 00:14:24.000
 to make sure that we are accommodating

00:14:24.000 --> 00:14:26.720
 safe intersections, safe access.

00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:27.840
 - Brian, can I ask you a question on that?

00:14:27.840 --> 00:14:28.680
 - Yes, go ahead.

00:14:28.680 --> 00:14:31.040
 - So with regard to a safety assessment,

00:14:31.040 --> 00:14:33.960
 I mean, are you giving them things to look for?

00:14:33.960 --> 00:14:37.440
 I mean, how is that gonna be determined?

00:14:37.440 --> 00:14:39.680
 - Yeah, so we lay out actually things for them to consider

00:14:39.680 --> 00:14:42.600
 and to revise and to look at and provide comments on

00:14:42.600 --> 00:14:45.240
 in terms of how is the safe conditions done.

00:14:45.240 --> 00:14:46.880
 And the pre-term actually has more information.

00:14:46.880 --> 00:14:48.800
 He can respond to that in more detail.

00:14:51.000 --> 00:14:52.960
 (clears throat)

00:14:52.960 --> 00:14:55.840
 - Good afternoon, Preetam Deshmukh, transportation planning.

00:14:55.840 --> 00:14:57.960
 Yeah, I think just to give you a quick example

00:14:57.960 --> 00:15:00.440
 of understanding, there are a lot of rural roadways

00:15:00.440 --> 00:15:02.880
 with rural cross-section with two lanes.

00:15:02.880 --> 00:15:06.520
 And typically when a development comes in,

00:15:06.520 --> 00:15:08.960
 not necessarily every TIA triggers

00:15:08.960 --> 00:15:11.280
 an introduction of a left turn lane.

00:15:11.280 --> 00:15:13.920
 So what we're doing is with the safety assessment,

00:15:13.920 --> 00:15:16.840
 making sure that a left turn lane is provided,

00:15:16.840 --> 00:15:19.840
 getting the turning vehicles out of the travel lane

00:15:19.840 --> 00:15:22.960
 so that that makes a safer bay

00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:26.200
 or a stacking area for the vehicle to stand

00:15:26.200 --> 00:15:28.520
 until they can safely make the left.

00:15:28.520 --> 00:15:30.240
 And that is just one example,

00:15:30.240 --> 00:15:32.600
 but there are several examples that are in there

00:15:32.600 --> 00:15:35.400
 that we can assess as part of the safety

00:15:35.400 --> 00:15:40.400
 and not necessarily rely on the TIA results.

00:15:40.400 --> 00:15:44.920
 - So the safety assessment is gonna be different

00:15:44.920 --> 00:15:47.080
 for each project then?

00:15:47.080 --> 00:15:48.880
 - It may be a project specific,

00:15:48.880 --> 00:15:51.000
 just depending on the access where they are

00:15:51.000 --> 00:15:53.160
 and depending on how they connect.

00:15:53.160 --> 00:15:55.280
 If a school is nearby that would trigger

00:15:55.280 --> 00:15:58.120
 some other requirements for that particular project,

00:15:58.120 --> 00:16:00.440
 but yes, it would be project specific.

00:16:00.440 --> 00:16:04.360
 It would also be more defined in the scoping

00:16:04.360 --> 00:16:07.440
 when we're talking to developers for the TIA.

00:16:07.440 --> 00:16:08.800
 - That you would drill down exactly

00:16:08.800 --> 00:16:10.520
 what they're gonna have to measure and whatnot.

00:16:10.520 --> 00:16:13.760
 Okay, then I had another question you probably can answer.

00:16:13.760 --> 00:16:15.640
 'Cause as I was reading through that,

00:16:16.480 --> 00:16:20.160
 it said the area will be looked at

00:16:20.160 --> 00:16:22.480
 in the vicinity of the project site.

00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:24.640
 That seems really vague.

00:16:24.640 --> 00:16:26.600
 So again, are we dealing because

00:16:26.600 --> 00:16:28.800
 we're dealing with each project individually,

00:16:28.800 --> 00:16:30.600
 but when you just say vicinity,

00:16:30.600 --> 00:16:31.480
 I mean, what does that mean?

00:16:31.480 --> 00:16:34.720
 Like a couple of blocks, a quarter mile,

00:16:34.720 --> 00:16:35.920
 but what does that mean?

00:16:35.920 --> 00:16:36.760
 - Yeah, it's funny.

00:16:36.760 --> 00:16:38.800
 This question was just raised earlier today.

00:16:38.800 --> 00:16:40.120
 (laughing)

00:16:40.120 --> 00:16:44.280
 So we have a list of pointers there.

00:16:44.280 --> 00:16:47.440
 Typically projects we're looking at a two mile radius

00:16:47.440 --> 00:16:51.440
 and any arterial to arterial or arterial collector

00:16:51.440 --> 00:16:54.840
 intersections that are either signalized

00:16:54.840 --> 00:16:57.320
 or even some of them are stop control

00:16:57.320 --> 00:16:59.520
 because some of them are rural cross-sections,

00:16:59.520 --> 00:17:01.680
 but we're looking at all of those intersections

00:17:01.680 --> 00:17:02.600
 in the vicinity.

00:17:02.600 --> 00:17:04.040
 And if a project is larger,

00:17:04.040 --> 00:17:06.160
 if you have more than 500-peak hour trips,

00:17:06.160 --> 00:17:07.720
 then we may expand the area

00:17:07.720 --> 00:17:09.600
 to look at the nearest freeway connections,

00:17:09.600 --> 00:17:11.920
 nearest highway connections, and so on and so forth.

00:17:11.920 --> 00:17:13.680
 But typically it's within the two mile radius.

00:17:13.680 --> 00:17:15.200
 - So you would let them know

00:17:15.200 --> 00:17:16.880
 what vicinity means at that point

00:17:16.880 --> 00:17:18.680
 so there's not, like they don't bring you a report

00:17:18.680 --> 00:17:20.880
 and you say, oh, sorry, you didn't go far enough, but.

00:17:20.880 --> 00:17:23.720
 - No, there is a process that we go through.

00:17:23.720 --> 00:17:25.840
 There is a TIA scoping meeting

00:17:25.840 --> 00:17:29.160
 and we clearly define that this is what we request from you

00:17:29.160 --> 00:17:30.800
 and at that meeting we point out

00:17:30.800 --> 00:17:32.080
 if the area is not enough,

00:17:32.080 --> 00:17:34.000
 we think that they need to extend

00:17:34.000 --> 00:17:36.280
 or there's special intersections

00:17:36.280 --> 00:17:38.920
 that are just outside the border of the vicinity,

00:17:38.920 --> 00:17:40.080
 we ask them to include that

00:17:40.080 --> 00:17:41.240
 because they're more congested

00:17:41.240 --> 00:17:43.240
 and we need to know what the impacts would be.

00:17:43.240 --> 00:17:45.360
 So yes, it's more of a,

00:17:45.360 --> 00:17:48.120
 at the starting point we define exactly what we want.

00:17:48.120 --> 00:17:49.320
 - Perfect, that's what I wanted to know.

00:17:49.320 --> 00:17:50.800
 Thank you very much. - Thank you.

00:17:50.800 --> 00:17:58.240
 - Then we also, as part of our complete streets,

00:17:58.240 --> 00:18:00.720
 we included pedestrian traffic impacts.

00:18:00.720 --> 00:18:01.880
 So in addition to roadways,

00:18:01.880 --> 00:18:03.760
 we wanna look at the pedestrian mobility

00:18:03.760 --> 00:18:05.800
 and how they can get around in terms of,

00:18:05.800 --> 00:18:10.280
 from feature to feature in bike ped and sidewalks as well.

00:18:10.280 --> 00:18:12.120
 So we included some more of that,

00:18:12.120 --> 00:18:14.240
 that inclusion to the TIA process.

00:18:14.240 --> 00:18:18.280
 So for water and wastewater criteria manuals,

00:18:18.280 --> 00:18:21.680
 we updated, we clarified the requirements

00:18:21.680 --> 00:18:24.040
 for metering for multifamilies.

00:18:24.040 --> 00:18:26.080
 And so there's discussion about,

00:18:26.080 --> 00:18:27.360
 do we have one master meter

00:18:27.360 --> 00:18:29.320
 and then the property owners have to sub meter

00:18:29.320 --> 00:18:32.360
 for every dwelling below that?

00:18:32.360 --> 00:18:35.560
 Or do we have a meter for every dwelling?

00:18:35.560 --> 00:18:38.280
 So we clarified some of that and cleaned that up a little bit.

00:18:38.280 --> 00:18:40.560
 I believe we're going with the one meter

00:18:40.560 --> 00:18:42.760
 and sub metering them by the property owner.

00:18:42.760 --> 00:18:45.480
 One of the things that we did not have

00:18:45.480 --> 00:18:47.760
 was any discussion on backflow prevention.

00:18:47.760 --> 00:18:48.920
 That's a requirement in the city,

00:18:48.920 --> 00:18:50.440
 it's a requirement in the state,

00:18:50.440 --> 00:18:52.800
 but we had nowhere defining and discussing

00:18:52.800 --> 00:18:55.600
 what the requirements for backflow prevention

00:18:55.600 --> 00:18:56.720
 was in the city.

00:18:56.720 --> 00:18:59.480
 So we added the whole section discussing that area.

00:18:59.480 --> 00:19:02.160
 We had a table in the document

00:19:02.160 --> 00:19:03.480
 where we're having a lot of conflict

00:19:03.480 --> 00:19:05.680
 in terms of how utilities cross each other,

00:19:05.680 --> 00:19:09.680
 whether it's gas lines crossing water lines or sewer lines

00:19:09.680 --> 00:19:11.520
 and storm drains crossing.

00:19:11.520 --> 00:19:13.280
 We had a table that was a little bit unclear.

00:19:13.280 --> 00:19:15.320
 We went through, we looked at it.

00:19:15.320 --> 00:19:18.120
 We refined that table, redefined some of the terms on it,

00:19:18.120 --> 00:19:20.760
 changed some of the requirements to make it easier to use

00:19:20.760 --> 00:19:22.480
 and better and more clear for everybody

00:19:22.480 --> 00:19:24.880
 in terms of the crews installing the work.

00:19:24.880 --> 00:19:26.800
 And we also added a discussion on grease traps

00:19:26.800 --> 00:19:29.480
 and grit traps, which is kind of a weird topic

00:19:29.480 --> 00:19:33.040
 to have in the water or wastewater criteria manual

00:19:33.040 --> 00:19:37.320
 as it's like food processing and restaurants.

00:19:37.320 --> 00:19:39.040
 But the problem was that it's not defined

00:19:39.040 --> 00:19:41.640
 or discussed anywhere else within the city code.

00:19:41.640 --> 00:19:45.960
 And it belongs in here because anything that overflows

00:19:45.960 --> 00:19:48.720
 from that goes into the wastewater system.

00:19:48.720 --> 00:19:50.840
 And so we had to have a discussion of it.

00:19:50.840 --> 00:19:52.720
 And so we added it to this document

00:19:52.720 --> 00:19:54.880
 to codify the requirements of that for the city

00:19:54.880 --> 00:19:56.920
 as part of the overall development

00:19:56.920 --> 00:19:58.280
 and the code requirements.

00:19:58.280 --> 00:20:03.040
 And so for our next steps, as I discussed previously,

00:20:03.040 --> 00:20:04.920
 we're having the Developer Town Hall tomorrow.

00:20:04.920 --> 00:20:07.680
 We're gonna run through this similar presentation,

00:20:07.680 --> 00:20:09.040
 giving all the developers an opportunity

00:20:09.040 --> 00:20:12.480
 to seek the information and provide comments and questions.

00:20:12.480 --> 00:20:15.200
 The criteria manuals will be posted online on Friday

00:20:15.200 --> 00:20:17.880
 as a draft for everybody to review and comment on it.

00:20:17.880 --> 00:20:19.800
 And then we'll be in the process of gathering information,

00:20:19.800 --> 00:20:21.200
 comments and feedback.

00:20:21.200 --> 00:20:23.000
 And then we'll be making updates and revisions

00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:25.160
 prior to going to city council in December.

00:20:25.160 --> 00:20:29.600
 And again, here's our schedule of all the planned meetings

00:20:29.600 --> 00:20:31.000
 and major milestones.

00:20:31.000 --> 00:20:34.280
 We have several presentations and meetings to do,

00:20:34.280 --> 00:20:36.280
 both to the city boards and commissions,

00:20:36.280 --> 00:20:38.480
 to outside agencies, to the Developer Town Hall,

00:20:38.480 --> 00:20:41.720
 to Engineering Society, publishing it online,

00:20:41.720 --> 00:20:44.040
 or publishing it in the newspaper,

00:20:44.040 --> 00:20:45.680
 and then going to city council for adoption

00:20:45.680 --> 00:20:47.720
 and effective in January.

00:20:47.720 --> 00:20:51.880
 And we're here for any questions you may have.

00:20:51.880 --> 00:20:53.680
 - As you're collecting feedback,

00:20:53.680 --> 00:20:57.400
 where is that feedback going?

00:20:57.400 --> 00:21:01.680
 Perhaps if a commissioner tonight comes up with something,

00:21:01.680 --> 00:21:03.520
 oh, where should they submit that?

00:21:03.520 --> 00:21:06.160
 - So on the website, we'll have a link to a form

00:21:06.160 --> 00:21:08.160
 that you fill out and the form will get populated

00:21:08.160 --> 00:21:12.840
 and put into a data collection process from behind scenes

00:21:12.840 --> 00:21:14.160
 and get notified to us.

00:21:14.160 --> 00:21:16.880
 - So it'll just go right through the online form?

00:21:16.880 --> 00:21:19.480
 - Exactly. - Okay, awesome, great.

00:21:19.480 --> 00:21:20.880
 Questions for Brad?

00:21:20.880 --> 00:21:24.600
 - Commissioner Perot.

00:21:24.600 --> 00:21:25.720
 - Thank you, Chair.

00:21:25.720 --> 00:21:27.200
 First of all, outstanding job.

00:21:27.200 --> 00:21:31.720
 I think last year we were short staffed

00:21:31.720 --> 00:21:33.160
 and we were running as hard as we could

00:21:33.160 --> 00:21:34.800
 to get to this thing in December.

00:21:34.800 --> 00:21:37.400
 And we got it through by February, I think.

00:21:37.400 --> 00:21:41.320
 And this year it really seems like it's a well-oiled machine.

00:21:41.320 --> 00:21:43.440
 So the hard work shows.

00:21:43.440 --> 00:21:44.920
 So thank you.

00:21:44.920 --> 00:21:47.040
 It's just in really good shape.

00:21:47.040 --> 00:21:49.040
 Just one question.

00:21:49.040 --> 00:21:50.960
 Well, we have several people in the room.

00:21:50.960 --> 00:21:54.920
 I think a couple months ago we had a work session on parking

00:21:54.920 --> 00:21:57.160
 and there was a slide on bicycle parking.

00:21:57.160 --> 00:22:01.760
 And that reminded me that in the past

00:22:01.760 --> 00:22:04.960
 we've had certain guidelines of types of bicycle

00:22:04.960 --> 00:22:09.320
 parking facilities that are allowed or encouraged

00:22:09.320 --> 00:22:10.320
 and that sort of thing.

00:22:10.320 --> 00:22:13.240
 Was there any discussion in the staff meetings

00:22:13.240 --> 00:22:16.400
 with our bicycle and pedestrian ADA coordinator

00:22:16.400 --> 00:22:20.720
 about what we should aspire to

00:22:20.720 --> 00:22:23.120
 and whether this is the right place

00:22:23.120 --> 00:22:24.280
 to make those amendments

00:22:24.280 --> 00:22:26.760
 or if there's some other document to make sure

00:22:26.760 --> 00:22:28.080
 that we're getting the right

00:22:28.080 --> 00:22:30.520
 or the intended type of bicycle parking?

00:22:30.520 --> 00:22:32.360
 - Yeah, so we actually did discuss that a little bit.

00:22:32.360 --> 00:22:36.160
 And part of the problem is that we have public right-of-way.

00:22:36.160 --> 00:22:38.800
 And so the right-of-way we have that's off of the streets

00:22:38.800 --> 00:22:40.720
 are used for sidewalks.

00:22:40.720 --> 00:22:43.840
 And we have to have ADA compliant sidewalks and facilities.

00:22:43.840 --> 00:22:46.840
 So we can't put bicycle parking

00:22:46.840 --> 00:22:49.840
 impeding the ADA travel lanes.

00:22:49.840 --> 00:22:51.800
 And so most of the bicycle parking that we're noticing

00:22:51.800 --> 00:22:53.680
 is gonna have to be on private property

00:22:53.680 --> 00:22:55.360
 outside the public right-of-way.

00:22:55.360 --> 00:22:58.280
 So it's not really something that we can incorporate

00:22:58.280 --> 00:23:02.160
 necessarily into our criteria for the city improvements.

00:23:02.160 --> 00:23:03.480
 One of the things that we did discuss

00:23:03.480 --> 00:23:04.840
 was motorcycle parking.

00:23:04.840 --> 00:23:06.280
 We had quite a few comments about that.

00:23:06.280 --> 00:23:09.320
 And so we did include a basic detail

00:23:09.320 --> 00:23:10.440
 for motorcycle parking.

00:23:10.440 --> 00:23:13.280
 Essentially, it's half of the parking spaces.

00:23:13.280 --> 00:23:15.800
 We looked it up and did some research online.

00:23:15.800 --> 00:23:18.320
 We have a note on the table saying that motorcycle parking

00:23:18.320 --> 00:23:21.000
 is one half of a traditional parking space.

00:23:21.000 --> 00:23:23.640
 - Okay, yeah, I think the specific thing

00:23:23.640 --> 00:23:25.480
 that I was thinking about is,

00:23:25.480 --> 00:23:28.440
 I mean, a lot of projects around town, even city projects

00:23:28.440 --> 00:23:31.640
 and parks projects have seen a lot of those sort of,

00:23:31.640 --> 00:23:33.720
 for lack of a better term, wave racks, right?

00:23:33.720 --> 00:23:36.440
 Where it's a squarely snake

00:23:36.440 --> 00:23:38.880
 with two positions on either side.

00:23:38.880 --> 00:23:42.920
 And the document that we refer to for general guidelines

00:23:42.920 --> 00:23:46.280
 and resources kind of dissuades against that style.

00:23:46.280 --> 00:23:49.000
 But there's nothing that requires a particular style

00:23:49.000 --> 00:23:50.200
 or two points of contact.

00:23:50.200 --> 00:23:52.040
 So just something to think about.

00:23:52.040 --> 00:23:54.800
 I don't know if Steph has any more thoughts on that.

00:23:54.800 --> 00:23:56.280
 - Yeah, we'll definitely take note of it

00:23:56.280 --> 00:23:57.240
 and look into it.

00:23:57.240 --> 00:23:58.080
 - Thank you.

00:23:58.080 --> 00:24:01.880
 - Anyone else?

00:24:01.880 --> 00:24:05.000
 Okay.

00:24:05.000 --> 00:24:05.840
 - Thank you.

00:24:05.840 --> 00:24:07.200
 - Outstanding, thank you so much.

00:24:07.200 --> 00:24:14.280
 That will take us to 3B on our work session agenda.

00:24:14.280 --> 00:24:17.320
 And Haley, are you handling that or is there a,

00:24:17.320 --> 00:24:19.440
 Sean is handling that very good.

00:24:25.800 --> 00:24:27.440
 - Good evening.

00:24:27.440 --> 00:24:28.280
 - Good evening.

00:24:28.280 --> 00:24:30.400
 - It is once again, calendar time.

00:24:30.400 --> 00:24:35.400
 And I can pull that up here.

00:24:35.400 --> 00:24:38.400
 Basically, we've put together once again,

00:24:38.400 --> 00:24:41.720
 a draft calendar following the pattern we've been on,

00:24:41.720 --> 00:24:42.560
 which seems to be working,

00:24:42.560 --> 00:24:46.200
 which is that second and fourth Wednesday.

00:24:46.200 --> 00:24:49.200
 So staying away from the city council dates.

00:24:49.200 --> 00:24:52.040
 We would have again, two dates in every month,

00:24:52.040 --> 00:24:55.280
 except for those where we're trying to provide some time

00:24:55.280 --> 00:24:59.400
 for holidays, which would be July, November, and December.

00:24:59.400 --> 00:25:01.960
 Otherwise, we would stick to that second and fourth.

00:25:01.960 --> 00:25:04.920
 And we have checked to make sure that there is no more

00:25:04.920 --> 00:25:07.520
 than 30 days between any dates that we're staying

00:25:07.520 --> 00:25:10.240
 within the rules of the shot clock,

00:25:10.240 --> 00:25:12.560
 but to have it answer any questions or concerns.

00:25:12.560 --> 00:25:15.280
 And I'm also happy to zoom in if that would be helpful.

00:25:15.280 --> 00:25:20.920
 - Anybody have questions on the dates?

00:25:20.920 --> 00:25:24.840
 I know that I saw that spring break has been accounted for,

00:25:24.840 --> 00:25:29.640
 so there will not be a meeting on spring break week.

00:25:29.640 --> 00:25:35.480
 Any questions, concerns, problems?

00:25:35.480 --> 00:25:38.360
 Okay, outstanding.

00:25:38.360 --> 00:25:39.200
 - Thank you.

00:25:39.200 --> 00:25:41.800
 - And we'll have an agenda item, I think, on this too.

00:25:41.800 --> 00:25:42.640
 - Yes.

00:25:42.640 --> 00:25:43.460
 - That's right.

00:25:43.460 --> 00:25:44.300
 - Yes, we'll have an ICI.

00:25:44.300 --> 00:25:45.140
 - On a regular meeting.

00:25:45.140 --> 00:25:45.960
 Okay, awesome.

00:25:45.960 --> 00:25:46.800
 Thank you, Sean.

00:25:47.720 --> 00:25:52.240
 Okay, our next topic is 3C.

00:25:52.240 --> 00:25:53.880
 Receive a report, hold a discussion

00:25:53.880 --> 00:25:56.320
 regarding transportation topics.

00:25:56.320 --> 00:26:00.200
 And look who's back to talk about

00:26:00.200 --> 00:26:02.400
 transportation topics, Howard.

00:26:02.400 --> 00:26:03.640
 - Good afternoon again.

00:26:03.640 --> 00:26:07.200
 Chair, members of the commission.

00:26:07.200 --> 00:26:10.120
 Pretend they smoke, transportation planning.

00:26:10.120 --> 00:26:16.280
 And let me pull up the, all right.

00:26:16.600 --> 00:26:19.800
 So as you can see, this is a tech team effort.

00:26:19.800 --> 00:26:21.800
 Karina was going to do the whole thing,

00:26:21.800 --> 00:26:26.800
 but she is, she has an infection issue with the voice.

00:26:26.800 --> 00:26:30.240
 (laughing)

00:26:30.240 --> 00:26:37.200
 All right, let's start the boot camp.

00:26:37.200 --> 00:26:42.840
 She'll be covering the last couple slides,

00:26:42.840 --> 00:26:47.440
 but now that we've all left, let's get started.

00:26:47.440 --> 00:26:49.760
 The day we open up the partitions,

00:26:49.760 --> 00:26:51.720
 that's when we talk about infection.

00:26:51.720 --> 00:26:53.960
 (laughing)

00:26:53.960 --> 00:27:01.080
 So just a quick overview of this particular boot camp topic.

00:27:01.080 --> 00:27:03.640
 It is TIA.

00:27:03.640 --> 00:27:07.480
 What exactly is TIA, traffic impact analysis?

00:27:07.480 --> 00:27:10.560
 The purpose behind it, we'll go through the components,

00:27:10.560 --> 00:27:12.960
 what's included in the study and analysis.

00:27:12.960 --> 00:27:16.120
 Then we'll talk about how do TIA relate

00:27:16.120 --> 00:27:19.400
 to the development review and the different applications

00:27:19.400 --> 00:27:21.680
 that come in and when we require them

00:27:21.680 --> 00:27:24.320
 and what format they're presented.

00:27:24.320 --> 00:27:27.400
 And then last but not least, we'll have the helpful links

00:27:27.400 --> 00:27:31.120
 to go to when we wanna look at the criteria

00:27:31.120 --> 00:27:33.280
 needed for the TIA.

00:27:33.280 --> 00:27:34.800
 So what is a TIA?

00:27:34.800 --> 00:27:37.920
 It is, as the name suggests, the traffic impact analysis.

00:27:37.920 --> 00:27:42.360
 We're actually determining impact for any new

00:27:42.360 --> 00:27:46.280
 or added traffic coming out of a proposed development

00:27:46.280 --> 00:27:48.040
 on the transportation system.

00:27:48.040 --> 00:27:50.000
 So the city has a network, a street,

00:27:50.000 --> 00:27:52.640
 and we just wanna make sure that before,

00:27:52.640 --> 00:27:57.040
 sorry about that, before we move forward

00:27:57.040 --> 00:28:00.520
 with the approval process of a development project,

00:28:00.520 --> 00:28:01.760
 what kind of impacts does it have?

00:28:01.760 --> 00:28:05.920
 Does it negatively impact our system here?

00:28:05.920 --> 00:28:10.040
 So next step is the purpose, understanding the purpose.

00:28:10.040 --> 00:28:11.680
 There are three main purposes here

00:28:11.680 --> 00:28:15.120
 if you focus on this side of the street.

00:28:15.120 --> 00:28:17.440
 First, it's first and foremost,

00:28:17.440 --> 00:28:19.720
 we're protecting our infrastructure.

00:28:19.720 --> 00:28:21.840
 We're protecting our transportation infrastructure.

00:28:21.840 --> 00:28:24.960
 It's billions of dollars to install it

00:28:24.960 --> 00:28:27.880
 and we're making sure that any new development

00:28:27.880 --> 00:28:30.640
 does not come in and negatively impact

00:28:30.640 --> 00:28:31.960
 our existing infrastructure.

00:28:31.960 --> 00:28:35.400
 So that's the first and foremost purpose of a TIA.

00:28:35.400 --> 00:28:37.720
 The second important thing is we're making sure

00:28:37.720 --> 00:28:42.120
 that we are providing possible mitigation measures.

00:28:42.120 --> 00:28:45.480
 And when I say possible, I wanna emphasize that word.

00:28:45.480 --> 00:28:48.640
 Making sure that when a development comes in,

00:28:48.640 --> 00:28:53.320
 it proportionally contributes to fixing some of the issues

00:28:53.320 --> 00:28:57.200
 that are created due to the new added traffic.

00:28:57.200 --> 00:29:02.200
 So in certain cases, the impacts or the congestion

00:29:03.040 --> 00:29:07.600
 already exist, so we cannot require the developer

00:29:07.600 --> 00:29:10.520
 to come in and fix those existing issues.

00:29:10.520 --> 00:29:12.800
 So that's what the word possible means.

00:29:12.800 --> 00:29:15.680
 So whenever a TIA, when we go through the process,

00:29:15.680 --> 00:29:17.440
 we identify the mitigation measures.

00:29:17.440 --> 00:29:20.080
 Not necessarily the entire mitigation measure

00:29:20.080 --> 00:29:24.280
 is proportional to the development.

00:29:24.280 --> 00:29:27.360
 So it's not necessarily that that developer is,

00:29:27.360 --> 00:29:29.640
 or the applicant is paying for the entire mitigation.

00:29:29.640 --> 00:29:31.920
 There could be a piece of it that's required.

00:29:31.920 --> 00:29:35.240
 So that's really important to keep in mind.

00:29:35.240 --> 00:29:38.200
 But when we talk about mitigation measures,

00:29:38.200 --> 00:29:41.000
 we help identify all the negative impacts

00:29:41.000 --> 00:29:45.320
 and provide that information to elected officials,

00:29:45.320 --> 00:29:48.080
 to appointed elected officials,

00:29:48.080 --> 00:29:51.720
 and then staff itself to make those informed decisions.

00:29:51.720 --> 00:29:55.640
 So when a new development is coming,

00:29:55.640 --> 00:29:58.880
 we wanna make sure that all the decisions that are made

00:29:58.880 --> 00:30:00.800
 are informed, and that's what the TIA does

00:30:00.800 --> 00:30:03.000
 as far as the traffic impacts are concerned.

00:30:03.000 --> 00:30:06.200
 And last but not least, there are several goals in the TIA.

00:30:06.200 --> 00:30:07.560
 When we're adding new traffic,

00:30:07.560 --> 00:30:12.080
 we wanna make sure that the system itself,

00:30:12.080 --> 00:30:16.000
 it's safe and efficient to travel on the roadways.

00:30:16.000 --> 00:30:18.120
 That's why we added that safety area,

00:30:18.120 --> 00:30:21.160
 or the safety section in the criteria manual,

00:30:21.160 --> 00:30:24.440
 make sure that our system remains safe and efficient.

00:30:24.440 --> 00:30:26.720
 We also wanna make sure that there are minimal

00:30:26.720 --> 00:30:28.080
 delay increases.

00:30:28.080 --> 00:30:31.040
 We know that there are delays on our intersections,

00:30:31.040 --> 00:30:33.200
 there is congestion on our roadways.

00:30:33.200 --> 00:30:36.200
 We wanna make sure that the new development

00:30:36.200 --> 00:30:39.760
 that's adding traffic is not increasing it to a point

00:30:39.760 --> 00:30:42.400
 where it starts failing, it starts congestion.

00:30:42.400 --> 00:30:45.240
 So we wanna make sure that that piece is mitigated.

00:30:45.240 --> 00:30:49.720
 And then also help identify, prevent crashes first,

00:30:49.720 --> 00:30:52.960
 and then help identify some cross-connections, axes,

00:30:52.960 --> 00:30:56.160
 but at the same time, making sure that there is no,

00:30:56.160 --> 00:30:57.760
 there is minimum cut through traffic.

00:30:57.760 --> 00:31:02.760
 So we wanna develop projects and make sure that we plan it

00:31:02.760 --> 00:31:05.960
 such that there is no cut through involved,

00:31:05.960 --> 00:31:08.800
 there is no increase in cut through traffic for existing,

00:31:08.800 --> 00:31:12.640
 as well as future subdivisions or areas

00:31:12.640 --> 00:31:14.120
 within the development itself.

00:31:14.120 --> 00:31:16.080
 So those are the main focus areas

00:31:16.080 --> 00:31:19.800
 as to why we require a TIA.

00:31:19.800 --> 00:31:22.080
 When do we need it?

00:31:22.080 --> 00:31:23.200
 There are clear guidelines.

00:31:23.200 --> 00:31:26.040
 If you focus on this table at the bottom,

00:31:26.040 --> 00:31:28.600
 it is in our transportation criteria manual.

00:31:28.600 --> 00:31:32.160
 It clearly defines when and what type of TIA,

00:31:32.160 --> 00:31:35.880
 how much in tents, and what all material will be required

00:31:35.880 --> 00:31:37.920
 that the city needs.

00:31:37.920 --> 00:31:40.240
 And just to summarize it on the left,

00:31:40.240 --> 00:31:42.200
 we are looking at developments

00:31:42.200 --> 00:31:44.120
 that are adding more than 100 peak hour trips

00:31:44.120 --> 00:31:47.040
 or 1,000 daily trips to the system.

00:31:47.040 --> 00:31:49.600
 So we want to make sure that those developments are analyzed.

00:31:49.600 --> 00:31:52.120
 We wanna make sure that we look at everything

00:31:52.120 --> 00:31:54.120
 in the vicinity, in the surrounding area,

00:31:54.120 --> 00:31:56.120
 and that as far as the impacts,

00:31:56.120 --> 00:31:58.360
 any large developments that are coming are in.

00:31:58.360 --> 00:32:01.200
 So any development that's more than 100 acres,

00:32:01.200 --> 00:32:04.560
 we wanna make sure that are we even prepared already

00:32:04.560 --> 00:32:07.800
 as far as transportation infrastructure is concerned

00:32:07.800 --> 00:32:10.760
 to serve that type of development and community.

00:32:10.760 --> 00:32:12.400
 So that's the second piece.

00:32:12.400 --> 00:32:15.200
 And then any other changes or alterations,

00:32:15.200 --> 00:32:19.960
 if we're talking about zoning changes, intensifying uses,

00:32:19.960 --> 00:32:21.040
 any of those changes,

00:32:21.040 --> 00:32:23.960
 or even mobility plan alterations and changes,

00:32:23.960 --> 00:32:26.640
 any changes in our master plans,

00:32:26.640 --> 00:32:31.480
 we wanna make sure that that also requires a TIA.

00:32:31.480 --> 00:32:32.680
 And last but not least,

00:32:32.680 --> 00:32:34.600
 when we're connecting our access points,

00:32:34.600 --> 00:32:37.680
 if we're connected to an existing congestion,

00:32:37.680 --> 00:32:39.120
 congested roadway,

00:32:39.120 --> 00:32:41.560
 or even if we're connecting to a text out roadway,

00:32:41.560 --> 00:32:45.440
 we wanna make sure that we identify the impacts,

00:32:45.440 --> 00:32:47.640
 make sure that we know exactly what's happening

00:32:47.640 --> 00:32:49.320
 when the traffic is added,

00:32:49.320 --> 00:32:51.600
 new development comes in and traffic is added to the system.

00:32:51.600 --> 00:32:55.440
 So those are the times when we would require a TIA

00:32:55.440 --> 00:32:56.880
 for a new development.

00:32:56.880 --> 00:32:59.000
 What are the components?

00:32:59.000 --> 00:33:00.600
 If you follow the bottom line,

00:33:00.600 --> 00:33:02.240
 it's fairly straightforward.

00:33:02.240 --> 00:33:07.280
 At first, we start with identifying that area, study area,

00:33:07.280 --> 00:33:09.640
 which is approximately two miles

00:33:09.640 --> 00:33:14.000
 in the vicinity of the project itself.

00:33:14.000 --> 00:33:18.680
 Then we identify what the existing development is

00:33:18.680 --> 00:33:21.520
 and the characteristics of the site itself.

00:33:21.520 --> 00:33:24.400
 We wanna make sure we also look at our mobility plan.

00:33:24.400 --> 00:33:25.560
 Are there any collectors?

00:33:25.560 --> 00:33:26.840
 Are there any arterials

00:33:26.840 --> 00:33:29.120
 going through that particular project area?

00:33:29.120 --> 00:33:32.880
 And then also we wanna make sure that

00:33:32.880 --> 00:33:35.520
 if there are any planned CIP or capital improvements,

00:33:35.520 --> 00:33:38.040
 any corridor projects going through that area,

00:33:38.040 --> 00:33:40.040
 we look at all of those aspects

00:33:40.040 --> 00:33:42.640
 and make sure that that's all included in the TIA.

00:33:42.640 --> 00:33:45.120
 And then we study the existing conditions,

00:33:45.120 --> 00:33:47.520
 what's out there, traffic counts, everything.

00:33:47.520 --> 00:33:49.440
 Then we study the future conditions

00:33:49.440 --> 00:33:51.960
 based on how many ever trips

00:33:51.960 --> 00:33:53.560
 that are being generated for the project.

00:33:53.560 --> 00:33:56.520
 So, and then based on the future condition,

00:33:56.520 --> 00:33:58.200
 we assess the level of service,

00:33:58.200 --> 00:34:02.440
 which is if we are delaying someone

00:34:02.440 --> 00:34:05.960
 at an intersection more longer than it currently is,

00:34:05.960 --> 00:34:09.880
 then how do we identify the proposed mitigation measures

00:34:09.880 --> 00:34:14.880
 to mitigate the impacts of the proposed development?

00:34:16.480 --> 00:34:19.480
 Now I wanna turn it over to Karina.

00:34:19.480 --> 00:34:24.520
 - Just kidding.

00:34:24.520 --> 00:34:28.640
 Just to clarify, I lost my voice.

00:34:28.640 --> 00:34:30.440
 That's why he did the presentation.

00:34:30.440 --> 00:34:34.200
 All right, I know we're a joking group.

00:34:34.200 --> 00:34:35.400
 We like to joke around.

00:34:35.400 --> 00:34:39.280
 So pre-time gave you a good amount of information

00:34:39.280 --> 00:34:42.240
 related to the TIA and what goes in it.

00:34:42.240 --> 00:34:44.400
 So how does this impact our current development review?

00:34:44.400 --> 00:34:46.160
 And I think this is kind of the meat and bones

00:34:46.160 --> 00:34:48.840
 of why it's important to PNZ.

00:34:48.840 --> 00:34:52.920
 So as pre-time mentioned, there's certain thresholds

00:34:52.920 --> 00:34:54.920
 that come into play that trigger a TIA.

00:34:54.920 --> 00:34:57.840
 So this is when a TIA is warranted.

00:34:57.840 --> 00:35:00.960
 When a development comes in and a TIA is warranted,

00:35:00.960 --> 00:35:06.880
 they're typically approved and prepared concurrently

00:35:06.880 --> 00:35:10.040
 with the following development applications.

00:35:10.040 --> 00:35:13.000
 So a preliminary plot, a zoning compliance plan,

00:35:13.000 --> 00:35:15.040
 which is our site plans,

00:35:15.040 --> 00:35:17.800
 plan developments and specific use permits.

00:35:17.800 --> 00:35:19.200
 Now the Planning and Zoning Commission

00:35:19.200 --> 00:35:22.040
 doesn't see all of these applications,

00:35:22.040 --> 00:35:23.800
 most of them, of course.

00:35:23.800 --> 00:35:25.280
 But the zoning compliance plans,

00:35:25.280 --> 00:35:27.800
 those are administratively approved.

00:35:27.800 --> 00:35:31.600
 So when it only needs, or when it comes in

00:35:31.600 --> 00:35:33.040
 versus the zoning compliance plan,

00:35:33.040 --> 00:35:34.840
 that's our non-residential projects,

00:35:34.840 --> 00:35:37.800
 you won't typically see that

00:35:37.800 --> 00:35:41.120
 with the exception of RACER Ranch if that's triggered.

00:35:41.120 --> 00:35:43.120
 So the first application that comes in

00:35:43.120 --> 00:35:44.320
 would be your preliminary plot.

00:35:44.320 --> 00:35:48.320
 So at that point, the TIA, again, if warranted,

00:35:48.320 --> 00:35:51.080
 is going through the process with staff.

00:35:51.080 --> 00:35:55.320
 If there's any mitigation measures

00:35:55.320 --> 00:35:58.800
 that are identified in the recommendations from a TIA,

00:35:58.800 --> 00:36:02.560
 those are incorporated within the zoning compliance plan

00:36:02.560 --> 00:36:03.920
 and preliminary plot.

00:36:03.920 --> 00:36:07.080
 So you won't see those plans come in

00:36:07.080 --> 00:36:08.840
 without those mitigation measures.

00:36:08.840 --> 00:36:12.360
 Those would be the responsibility of staff to identify

00:36:12.360 --> 00:36:14.720
 and make sure that they're in there.

00:36:14.720 --> 00:36:17.000
 Again, they're not required,

00:36:17.000 --> 00:36:18.120
 but when they're proposed,

00:36:18.120 --> 00:36:20.840
 staff does make the determination

00:36:20.840 --> 00:36:22.920
 what would be appropriate for the area.

00:36:22.920 --> 00:36:25.600
 And then, of course, when those zoning cases,

00:36:25.600 --> 00:36:27.840
 the plan developments, specific use permits,

00:36:27.840 --> 00:36:31.080
 when those applications come in for public hearing,

00:36:31.080 --> 00:36:32.840
 that's typically where the questions come in

00:36:32.840 --> 00:36:35.400
 from PNZ and council.

00:36:35.400 --> 00:36:37.920
 What was done for congestion on this project?

00:36:37.920 --> 00:36:40.040
 What are the mitigation measures that we're requiring here?

00:36:40.040 --> 00:36:43.880
 So if PNZ has a concern, if city council has a concern,

00:36:43.880 --> 00:36:47.240
 we will look at the TIA and see what it recommended

00:36:47.240 --> 00:36:50.160
 and make sure that we're balancing that with, you know,

00:36:50.160 --> 00:36:54.440
 those requirements, as well as any concerns

00:36:54.440 --> 00:36:57.680
 that our elected officials and appointed officials have.

00:36:57.680 --> 00:36:59.320
 I'm not sure if I saw a question.

00:36:59.320 --> 00:37:01.520
 Okay, good.

00:37:01.520 --> 00:37:09.080
 So as I mentioned, the TIAs are required on a case by case.

00:37:09.080 --> 00:37:10.240
 Well, I did not mention this,

00:37:10.240 --> 00:37:13.080
 but other applications that you might see it on,

00:37:13.080 --> 00:37:15.600
 these come in on a case by case basis.

00:37:15.600 --> 00:37:17.560
 So that would be your zoning,

00:37:17.560 --> 00:37:18.960
 comprehensive plan amendments,

00:37:18.960 --> 00:37:20.520
 and mobility plan amendments.

00:37:20.520 --> 00:37:23.160
 So zoning is the application type

00:37:23.160 --> 00:37:26.200
 that you will typically not see a TIA

00:37:26.200 --> 00:37:28.520
 unless it hits that threshold of,

00:37:28.520 --> 00:37:31.560
 okay, this is 100 acres, this is 200 acres,

00:37:31.560 --> 00:37:34.040
 or an applicant is requesting to rezone

00:37:34.040 --> 00:37:37.760
 from rural residential all the way to LI,

00:37:37.760 --> 00:37:40.520
 and it does not meet the future land use map.

00:37:40.520 --> 00:37:42.760
 So those are some instances where staff will come in

00:37:42.760 --> 00:37:46.080
 and say, hey, we do need a TIA for this area.

00:37:46.080 --> 00:37:49.560
 What you're proposing may have potential impacts

00:37:49.560 --> 00:37:53.120
 on the system, especially if it's out on the fringe,

00:37:53.120 --> 00:37:54.160
 the city fringe.

00:37:54.160 --> 00:38:00.000
 This is when we'll request that analysis to be done.

00:38:00.000 --> 00:38:01.800
 So as I mentioned, some considerations,

00:38:01.800 --> 00:38:03.280
 and before I jump into that,

00:38:03.280 --> 00:38:05.520
 I did put some screenshots for you

00:38:05.520 --> 00:38:08.280
 of a recent project that came in.

00:38:08.280 --> 00:38:11.160
 This is at the corner of Loop 288 and University.

00:38:11.160 --> 00:38:14.560
 It was a plan development before,

00:38:14.560 --> 00:38:17.120
 and then the applicant came in and requested

00:38:17.120 --> 00:38:19.520
 to rezone to three different zoning districts,

00:38:19.520 --> 00:38:21.640
 which would be general office,

00:38:21.640 --> 00:38:24.560
 mixed-use neighborhood, and light industrial.

00:38:24.560 --> 00:38:26.880
 So when that zoning case came in,

00:38:26.880 --> 00:38:28.560
 we did request the TIA.

00:38:28.560 --> 00:38:33.320
 Within that TIA, recommendations were proposed,

00:38:33.320 --> 00:38:35.920
 and it was presented by the planner on the case

00:38:35.920 --> 00:38:40.280
 as it relates to the criteria for approval for zoning.

00:38:40.280 --> 00:38:43.280
 So going into that last bit,

00:38:43.280 --> 00:38:45.760
 some considerations when we do require TIAs

00:38:45.760 --> 00:38:47.280
 with these applications.

00:38:47.280 --> 00:38:50.120
 Again, it has to be related to a substantial change

00:38:50.120 --> 00:38:52.400
 in the future land use designation,

00:38:52.400 --> 00:38:54.140
 the residential to industrial,

00:38:54.140 --> 00:38:58.000
 substantial changes to a zoning district.

00:38:58.000 --> 00:39:00.080
 So we won't typically require a TIA

00:39:00.080 --> 00:39:02.960
 for R1 to R2, as an example,

00:39:02.960 --> 00:39:06.560
 but if it was R1 to MN or MR,

00:39:06.560 --> 00:39:10.240
 that might be a case if a conceptual plan is provided.

00:39:10.240 --> 00:39:12.240
 That's another kind of triggering factor

00:39:12.240 --> 00:39:14.360
 or something that we consider.

00:39:14.360 --> 00:39:16.440
 And then last, mobility plan amendments.

00:39:16.440 --> 00:39:17.800
 We don't typically see these,

00:39:17.800 --> 00:39:19.640
 but I believe in the last year or two,

00:39:19.640 --> 00:39:21.920
 we did have one come to PNZ and council.

00:39:21.920 --> 00:39:25.320
 I can't remember off the top of my head which one it was,

00:39:25.320 --> 00:39:27.800
 but it was on our light industrial side of town.

00:39:27.800 --> 00:39:31.400
 There was a requested amendment to the mobility plan,

00:39:31.400 --> 00:39:34.360
 and then at that point, we did request a TIA.

00:39:34.360 --> 00:39:37.320
 So those are just some examples of how the TIA comes

00:39:37.320 --> 00:39:39.280
 into play with our development review

00:39:39.280 --> 00:39:44.280
 and how PNZ does kind of evaluate some of these decisions

00:39:44.280 --> 00:39:46.040
 related to that.

00:39:46.040 --> 00:39:48.200
 So last, just a couple links for y'all.

00:39:48.200 --> 00:39:50.880
 Of course, our development code, the comprehensive plan,

00:39:50.880 --> 00:39:53.800
 which does include the mobility plan as an element,

00:39:53.800 --> 00:39:57.200
 and then the current transportation criteria manual,

00:39:57.200 --> 00:40:00.400
 which outlines thresholds for a TIA

00:40:00.400 --> 00:40:02.720
 and then what's required within a TIA.

00:40:02.720 --> 00:40:05.680
 And with that, Preetemar, I can answer any questions.

00:40:05.680 --> 00:40:06.920
 - Go ahead.

00:40:06.920 --> 00:40:08.120
 - Commissioner Rick Dane.

00:40:08.120 --> 00:40:10.320
 - Thank you, Madam Chair.

00:40:10.320 --> 00:40:14.640
 I just have one question on the traffic,

00:40:14.640 --> 00:40:16.440
 on the only analysis of your traffic.

00:40:16.440 --> 00:40:20.920
 And I'm gonna use the new apartments coming in at Woodrow.

00:40:20.920 --> 00:40:25.440
 They say that the street is gonna tie into Dutchess.

00:40:26.960 --> 00:40:31.960
 So I'm looking at, you have Dutchess,

00:40:31.960 --> 00:40:34.160
 when you try to get onto the loop,

00:40:34.160 --> 00:40:35.360
 there's no traffic light there,

00:40:35.360 --> 00:40:37.360
 but you have a light maybe 300 yards up

00:40:37.360 --> 00:40:40.800
 at Shady Oaks and the loop.

00:40:40.800 --> 00:40:43.840
 And then you have one at McKinney and the loop.

00:40:43.840 --> 00:40:44.680
 What's gonna be done?

00:40:44.680 --> 00:40:48.880
 You're adding 289 apartments that's gonna tie into Dutchess.

00:40:48.880 --> 00:40:52.880
 How is that gonna, you're gonna have a big impact right there

00:40:52.880 --> 00:40:55.320
 'cause you're not gonna be able to turn left

00:40:55.320 --> 00:40:56.520
 to get on the loop.

00:40:56.520 --> 00:40:58.920
 Is it, would it make any sense to put another light there

00:40:58.920 --> 00:41:00.840
 when you already have one,

00:41:00.840 --> 00:41:04.120
 maybe two or 300 yards from that site?

00:41:04.120 --> 00:41:07.520
 - So I wanna make sure we don't get too far off topic.

00:41:07.520 --> 00:41:13.720
 So maybe if, maybe if we can ask a more general question,

00:41:13.720 --> 00:41:16.480
 like did it trigger a TIA and stick to that

00:41:16.480 --> 00:41:19.680
 versus a more individualized thing.

00:41:19.680 --> 00:41:22.720
 I believe, Hilary, is that, okay.

00:41:22.720 --> 00:41:26.720
 - It's potentially off topic, so if it's there,

00:41:26.720 --> 00:41:30.720
 - So yeah, in general question,

00:41:30.720 --> 00:41:34.040
 yes, we typically do include signalization,

00:41:34.040 --> 00:41:37.080
 identify, it's called signal warrants analysis.

00:41:37.080 --> 00:41:41.240
 So as part of the TIA, we do have the applicant

00:41:41.240 --> 00:41:43.840
 go through a signal warrant analysis,

00:41:43.840 --> 00:41:47.960
 particularly when we're tying into TxDOT facilities.

00:41:47.960 --> 00:41:51.400
 TxDOT does require that we provide that,

00:41:51.400 --> 00:41:54.560
 and once they go, we have to go through an approval process,

00:41:54.560 --> 00:41:57.680
 and when they process it, then we have to identify funds

00:41:57.680 --> 00:42:00.320
 to put the entire signal in there.

00:42:00.320 --> 00:42:05.040
 One of the nuances that does happen is one development

00:42:05.040 --> 00:42:06.880
 may not, as I mentioned earlier,

00:42:06.880 --> 00:42:09.780
 may not be responsible for the entire mitigation.

00:42:09.780 --> 00:42:13.340
 So even though it triggers it, it's not fully responsible.

00:42:13.340 --> 00:42:16.060
 So at that point, the city has to identify

00:42:16.060 --> 00:42:19.680
 how do we move forward and implement this mitigation measure

00:42:19.680 --> 00:42:22.960
 in a reasonable time, even though we're not getting

00:42:22.960 --> 00:42:27.000
 the full cost recovered from the one particular development.

00:42:27.000 --> 00:42:28.560
 So yes, there are some challenges,

00:42:28.560 --> 00:42:33.120
 and then we continually work, but the TIA should identify

00:42:33.120 --> 00:42:34.800
 and conduct a signal warrant analysis

00:42:34.800 --> 00:42:36.200
 in situations like theirs.

00:42:36.200 --> 00:42:40.200
 - Just to generally answer the question

00:42:40.200 --> 00:42:43.520
 about the Woodrow project, there was a TIA submitted,

00:42:43.520 --> 00:42:46.000
 reviewed and approved when the SUP came in,

00:42:46.000 --> 00:42:49.280
 and we can send you information offline about that project.

00:42:49.280 --> 00:42:50.840
 - All right, thanks.

00:42:50.840 --> 00:42:51.680
 - Commissioner Smith.

00:42:51.680 --> 00:42:52.520
 - Thank you, Chair.

00:42:52.520 --> 00:42:55.520
 I think it's been, for the five years

00:42:55.520 --> 00:42:56.800
 I've been on the commission, I think it's probably been

00:42:56.800 --> 00:42:58.440
 one of the biggest sticking points we've had

00:42:58.440 --> 00:43:02.320
 that gets brought up constantly is about traffic, obviously.

00:43:02.320 --> 00:43:05.360
 And I think the empower of the TIA is great,

00:43:05.360 --> 00:43:07.080
 and I'm glad we're going through this bootcamp process

00:43:07.080 --> 00:43:08.400
 just to kind of get an understanding of it.

00:43:08.400 --> 00:43:12.400
 But I know that sometimes when we bring up TIAs,

00:43:12.400 --> 00:43:14.800
 they're kind of just not blown through during a meeting,

00:43:14.800 --> 00:43:16.640
 and it's not really you guys, it's the planners

00:43:16.640 --> 00:43:18.800
 that are presenting it, and they're not coming out

00:43:18.800 --> 00:43:20.440
 to any of the planners here.

00:43:20.440 --> 00:43:24.400
 But when there are things like you just mentioned, right,

00:43:24.400 --> 00:43:28.280
 this does trigger a factor that needs to be going in

00:43:28.280 --> 00:43:31.440
 for mitigation, and it's on a tech stop managed street,

00:43:31.440 --> 00:43:35.240
 where it's on a city road, but it's not enough for us to,

00:43:35.240 --> 00:43:38.020
 there's other properties that are not developed yet

00:43:38.020 --> 00:43:39.740
 that probably would end up triggering it,

00:43:39.740 --> 00:43:42.020
 and then you can't put that full weight and bearing

00:43:42.020 --> 00:43:44.360
 of that cost to put in a signal

00:43:44.360 --> 00:43:45.740
 or other type of mitigation in place

00:43:45.740 --> 00:43:48.280
 only on that one person, who is the strawberry bear

00:43:48.280 --> 00:43:49.520
 with camel's back.

00:43:49.520 --> 00:43:52.840
 The, I don't know if there's a way for us in the future

00:43:52.840 --> 00:43:54.840
 during TIAs and during presentations

00:43:54.840 --> 00:43:57.400
 to have those types of pieces brought up

00:43:57.400 --> 00:43:58.760
 a little bit more clearly,

00:43:58.760 --> 00:44:00.040
 especially when we're looking at zonings,

00:44:00.040 --> 00:44:02.440
 where it's like, yes, this zoning is something

00:44:02.440 --> 00:44:04.720
 that could have, by the TIA,

00:44:04.720 --> 00:44:07.400
 we could need signalization at this street,

00:44:07.400 --> 00:44:10.120
 but there'd be this process X, Y, Z

00:44:10.120 --> 00:44:11.160
 that we have to go through for that.

00:44:11.160 --> 00:44:13.920
 Or because it's along the tech stop road,

00:44:13.920 --> 00:44:16.360
 we'd have to go through the tech stop process

00:44:16.360 --> 00:44:18.280
 within getting that signalization.

00:44:18.280 --> 00:44:20.080
 I think that sometimes we just,

00:44:20.080 --> 00:44:22.400
 we miss mentioning some of those small things

00:44:22.400 --> 00:44:24.600
 that should be some deciding factors

00:44:24.600 --> 00:44:25.680
 when we talk about a zoning,

00:44:25.680 --> 00:44:28.160
 because even though it may trigger it,

00:44:28.160 --> 00:44:30.760
 it doesn't mean it will be necessarily there at that time,

00:44:30.760 --> 00:44:32.920
 and it does kind of create this gap in safety

00:44:32.920 --> 00:44:37.280
 that we hope the TIA will point out for us,

00:44:37.280 --> 00:44:39.220
 and we hope the TIA will protect the community

00:44:39.220 --> 00:44:42.080
 at large for it, but there might be a need to discuss

00:44:42.080 --> 00:44:43.960
 that a little bit more in depth at public meetings,

00:44:43.960 --> 00:44:46.460
 and so I don't know if that's something we can

00:44:46.460 --> 00:44:48.040
 bring up in the future.

00:44:48.040 --> 00:44:50.040
 - It's possible that that could be

00:44:50.040 --> 00:44:52.480
 something to bring up at matrix time.

00:44:52.480 --> 00:44:53.800
 - Okay, we'll do that then,

00:44:53.800 --> 00:44:56.880
 but one question I did have on the tech stop process.

00:44:56.880 --> 00:44:59.720
 As we have, can you go in depth on,

00:44:59.720 --> 00:45:01.080
 just for the commission as a whole,

00:45:01.080 --> 00:45:02.640
 to have a better understanding,

00:45:02.640 --> 00:45:04.000
 'cause we do see a lot of projects

00:45:04.000 --> 00:45:05.920
 that happen on tech stop roads,

00:45:05.920 --> 00:45:08.440
 or a lot of projects that are next to tech stop roads

00:45:08.440 --> 00:45:10.840
 and go through the tech stop process.

00:45:10.840 --> 00:45:12.880
 What is that step-by-step, after we do that TIA,

00:45:12.880 --> 00:45:14.780
 that it goes, when it goes to tech stop,

00:45:14.780 --> 00:45:16.760
 that they then go through to be able to discuss,

00:45:16.760 --> 00:45:18.680
 okay, this is when we're gonna start going through,

00:45:18.680 --> 00:45:20.240
 I know you mentioned it there at the end,

00:45:20.240 --> 00:45:22.320
 we have to, the city has to locate some funds

00:45:22.320 --> 00:45:25.760
 to be able to do that, but how does tech stops process

00:45:25.760 --> 00:45:28.560
 of identifying mitigation, and the city's process

00:45:28.560 --> 00:45:31.200
 for identifying medication differ, or align,

00:45:31.200 --> 00:45:33.280
 or how do those two things interact?

00:45:33.280 --> 00:45:36.160
 'Cause it seems like it's always been a little bit gray.

00:45:36.160 --> 00:45:37.040
 - You can give us our name.

00:45:37.040 --> 00:45:41.160
 - Yeah, I'll tackle this from the development review side.

00:45:41.160 --> 00:45:45.920
 So, typically the general process is,

00:45:45.920 --> 00:45:47.680
 once the zoning, in this case,

00:45:47.680 --> 00:45:49.480
 we'll talk about plan developments and SUPs,

00:45:49.480 --> 00:45:53.240
 'cause those are the ones that have site plans approved,

00:45:53.240 --> 00:45:57.240
 and the TIA would then include those mitigation measures,

00:45:57.240 --> 00:45:59.500
 or not, if it didn't require it.

00:45:59.500 --> 00:46:03.480
 After that stage has passed,

00:46:03.480 --> 00:46:06.280
 they'll go through their planning process,

00:46:06.280 --> 00:46:08.920
 and then, well, their civil engineering plan process,

00:46:08.920 --> 00:46:11.080
 and planning process.

00:46:11.080 --> 00:46:12.680
 When a tech stop permit comes in,

00:46:12.680 --> 00:46:14.360
 that's typically what they need to do

00:46:14.360 --> 00:46:17.280
 before they get access to it.

00:46:17.280 --> 00:46:19.000
 That'll come in concurrently

00:46:19.000 --> 00:46:21.120
 with their civil engineering plans,

00:46:21.120 --> 00:46:24.320
 and that's kind of the point in time

00:46:24.320 --> 00:46:28.640
 where all of that will be decided by tech stop,

00:46:28.640 --> 00:46:31.720
 whether they approve those access points,

00:46:31.720 --> 00:46:34.640
 or they're gonna require something else on top of that.

00:46:34.640 --> 00:46:37.320
 So the tech stop permit is the key application.

00:46:37.320 --> 00:46:39.200
 Concurrent with the civil engineering plans,

00:46:39.200 --> 00:46:41.020
 and then prior to final platting,

00:46:41.020 --> 00:46:43.880
 where that decision will be made,

00:46:43.880 --> 00:46:47.560
 and then just for general informational purposes,

00:46:47.560 --> 00:46:49.840
 the current timeline right now for tech stop

00:46:49.840 --> 00:46:52.440
 is four to six months before they approve a permit.

00:46:52.440 --> 00:46:56.080
 So sometimes, that's why you'll see a significant gap

00:46:56.080 --> 00:46:58.300
 from when the plan development came in,

00:46:58.300 --> 00:46:59.560
 or the SUP came in,

00:46:59.560 --> 00:47:02.800
 to when the plat is finally coming in for approval.

00:47:02.800 --> 00:47:04.400
 So I'm hoping I answered that question,

00:47:04.400 --> 00:47:06.400
 if not, Preetam can come right in.

00:47:07.800 --> 00:47:10.000
 - I just follow up, how often do we see

00:47:10.000 --> 00:47:12.800
 those permits getting denied or modified

00:47:12.800 --> 00:47:14.520
 in a significant way that might be different

00:47:14.520 --> 00:47:17.760
 than what is discussed in a public approval setting?

00:47:17.760 --> 00:47:21.280
 Is it pretty common, we're going through,

00:47:21.280 --> 00:47:22.800
 we're following essentially what,

00:47:22.800 --> 00:47:24.000
 we know what tech stop wants,

00:47:24.000 --> 00:47:25.120
 we know we're gonna go through that process,

00:47:25.120 --> 00:47:26.440
 that the permit doesn't usually get denied,

00:47:26.440 --> 00:47:28.360
 we don't see big modifications, those kinds of things.

00:47:28.360 --> 00:47:30.360
 - Yeah, we typically go,

00:47:30.360 --> 00:47:32.540
 it's a two or three step process,

00:47:32.540 --> 00:47:35.040
 but what we have is we have a great relationship,

00:47:35.040 --> 00:47:36.320
 and thanks to Becky's group,

00:47:36.320 --> 00:47:38.340
 we have a great relationship with Tech Stop,

00:47:38.340 --> 00:47:40.600
 and we conduct monthly meetings with them,

00:47:40.600 --> 00:47:43.080
 so if there is a development that's coming in

00:47:43.080 --> 00:47:48.080
 and tying in, and they have certain design concepts,

00:47:48.080 --> 00:47:50.120
 they will bring it up,

00:47:50.120 --> 00:47:52.600
 and we will bring it up in a discussion with Tech Stop,

00:47:52.600 --> 00:47:54.320
 and say generally, conceptually,

00:47:54.320 --> 00:47:55.860
 do you agree with this step?

00:47:55.860 --> 00:47:57.040
 Then they move to the next step,

00:47:57.040 --> 00:47:59.320
 which is actually designing it,

00:47:59.320 --> 00:48:00.600
 and during the design phase,

00:48:00.600 --> 00:48:03.640
 if they find out there are some engineering design issues,

00:48:03.640 --> 00:48:06.080
 if there is drainage issues or other issues,

00:48:06.080 --> 00:48:07.680
 then they will provide those comments,

00:48:07.680 --> 00:48:09.400
 and they have another option to go back

00:48:09.400 --> 00:48:11.600
 and ask Tech Stop the same question,

00:48:11.600 --> 00:48:15.200
 but after everything is done and we feel okay,

00:48:15.200 --> 00:48:18.280
 that yes, we've received a couple approvals from Tech Stop,

00:48:18.280 --> 00:48:22.240
 and then we as a city, it satisfies all city criteria,

00:48:22.240 --> 00:48:25.520
 it does go to Tech Stop, they may have comments,

00:48:25.520 --> 00:48:27.580
 they may have some minor modifications,

00:48:27.580 --> 00:48:29.360
 but it's very rare at that point,

00:48:29.360 --> 00:48:31.560
 after going through that many steps,

00:48:31.560 --> 00:48:33.480
 that they really completely decline

00:48:33.480 --> 00:48:35.640
 or reject those applications.

00:48:36.800 --> 00:48:37.640
 - I'm sorry.

00:48:37.640 --> 00:48:40.740
 I just thought of one more thing.

00:48:40.740 --> 00:48:46.000
 Given how the approval process is for SUPs and PDs,

00:48:46.000 --> 00:48:48.480
 if Tech Stop were to find a project

00:48:48.480 --> 00:48:49.920
 that has already gone through approvals

00:48:49.920 --> 00:48:51.920
 and indicate that it's not sufficient,

00:48:51.920 --> 00:48:53.480
 they're gonna deny the permit,

00:48:53.480 --> 00:48:56.440
 at that point, that applicant would have to bring the SUP

00:48:56.440 --> 00:49:00.800
 back unless flexibility was written into the SUP or PD.

00:49:00.800 --> 00:49:02.000
 - So it doesn't happen very often?

00:49:02.000 --> 00:49:04.800
 - Not very often, there may be one case

00:49:04.800 --> 00:49:08.320
 or maybe something minor where there might be issues

00:49:08.320 --> 00:49:10.560
 between the site plan that was approved,

00:49:10.560 --> 00:49:13.000
 but typically, if it stays within the limitations

00:49:13.000 --> 00:49:14.680
 or boundaries of the approval,

00:49:14.680 --> 00:49:16.160
 then it doesn't have to come back.

00:49:16.160 --> 00:49:18.960
 We try to find a resolution as best as we can.

00:49:18.960 --> 00:49:20.240
 - You guys stay pretty proactive,

00:49:20.240 --> 00:49:23.840
 and I'm saying thank you guys very much for doing that.

00:49:23.840 --> 00:49:27.080
 How many other cities have a monthly meeting with Tech Stop?

00:49:27.080 --> 00:49:28.280
 Cities of our size are sad.

00:49:28.280 --> 00:49:31.440
 Sure, Dallas has weekly, if not daily meetings with Tech Stop,

00:49:31.440 --> 00:49:33.760
 but not many?

00:49:33.760 --> 00:49:36.160
 So I don't know the answer to that question.

00:49:36.160 --> 00:49:43.440
 - It does actually depend of how many facilities,

00:49:43.440 --> 00:49:45.800
 Tech Stop roadways, they have within the city.

00:49:45.800 --> 00:49:47.840
 So if there's not a whole lot of touch points,

00:49:47.840 --> 00:49:51.280
 we do have a lot, and Tina can attest to that

00:49:51.280 --> 00:49:53.040
 when she moved here.

00:49:53.040 --> 00:49:54.280
 - Tina can beat her head against the wall

00:49:54.280 --> 00:49:56.680
 and make a touch to that, yeah, sure.

00:49:56.680 --> 00:49:59.040
 Awesome, thank you guys, thank you for being so proactive

00:49:59.040 --> 00:49:59.880
 on that.

00:49:59.880 --> 00:50:02.320
 - Other questions?

00:50:02.320 --> 00:50:03.520
 Commissioner Perot.

00:50:03.520 --> 00:50:04.960
 - Thank you, Chair.

00:50:04.960 --> 00:50:06.320
 Just a couple quick things.

00:50:06.320 --> 00:50:11.480
 I heard Karina mention that,

00:50:11.480 --> 00:50:15.360
 sorry, let's take a minute here.

00:50:15.360 --> 00:50:21.800
 Mentioned something about if a zoning change was not,

00:50:21.800 --> 00:50:26.600
 or differing from the future land use map,

00:50:26.600 --> 00:50:31.000
 and does that mean that essentially some of those triggers

00:50:33.120 --> 00:50:35.840
 occur when we are changing,

00:50:35.840 --> 00:50:38.760
 essentially changing the future land use map,

00:50:38.760 --> 00:50:41.600
 because the mobility plan was drawn up

00:50:41.600 --> 00:50:45.320
 with the assumption of the land uses within that map?

00:50:45.320 --> 00:50:47.320
 Am I understanding that correctly?

00:50:47.320 --> 00:50:50.000
 - I'll say it's a consideration for.

00:50:50.000 --> 00:50:54.520
 So if, again, if a zoning request comes through

00:50:54.520 --> 00:50:56.320
 and it doesn't meet the future land use,

00:50:56.320 --> 00:50:59.240
 but it's not too far off from what we're asking for,

00:50:59.240 --> 00:51:01.320
 we're not gonna put an applicant through the process

00:51:01.320 --> 00:51:03.880
 to go through the TIA process.

00:51:03.880 --> 00:51:05.280
 Now, if it's something significant

00:51:05.280 --> 00:51:08.560
 that warrants a comprehensive plan amendment,

00:51:08.560 --> 00:51:11.520
 and again, it's that far off from what we're asking for,

00:51:11.520 --> 00:51:16.160
 then yes, we will have a TIA with that application.

00:51:16.160 --> 00:51:17.120
 - No, that's good.

00:51:17.120 --> 00:51:21.120
 And then on the, and maybe this differs

00:51:21.120 --> 00:51:23.360
 from project to project, so feel free to tell me

00:51:23.360 --> 00:51:26.760
 it just depends as the wonderful engineering answer.

00:51:26.760 --> 00:51:31.280
 But from time to time, we have projects come through

00:51:31.280 --> 00:51:36.280
 especially with a PD or an SUP where a developer

00:51:36.280 --> 00:51:40.880
 will offer to provide some offsite improvement

00:51:40.880 --> 00:51:43.720
 that may or may not have been required by staff

00:51:43.720 --> 00:51:44.920
 from the TIA.

00:51:44.920 --> 00:51:51.440
 Is there a general way in that funding scheme

00:51:51.440 --> 00:51:56.900
 that is typical from a, here's my question is,

00:51:56.900 --> 00:52:00.600
 it's my understand that sometimes those improvements

00:52:00.600 --> 00:52:05.080
 are sort of fronted some money from the developer,

00:52:05.080 --> 00:52:06.200
 but then on the back side,

00:52:06.200 --> 00:52:09.320
 once they have their construction applications

00:52:09.320 --> 00:52:11.120
 and they pay their impact fees,

00:52:11.120 --> 00:52:14.680
 that gets basically refunded on the back end.

00:52:14.680 --> 00:52:16.520
 Is that the normal process or is it,

00:52:16.520 --> 00:52:17.920
 does it really just depend?

00:52:17.920 --> 00:52:23.440
 - The starting answer is it depends, but (laughs)

00:52:23.440 --> 00:52:27.240
 but in order to provide more information on that,

00:52:28.440 --> 00:52:33.280
 yes, if a roadway that's adjacent to the project

00:52:33.280 --> 00:52:36.680
 is a roadway that's within the mobility plan

00:52:36.680 --> 00:52:40.480
 and it's included in the right-of-way impact fee study,

00:52:40.480 --> 00:52:44.200
 then any capacity improvements, adding turn lanes,

00:52:44.200 --> 00:52:48.320
 adding through lanes, they will get refunded at the back end.

00:52:48.320 --> 00:52:53.280
 So they will have their right-of-way impact fees credited.

00:52:53.280 --> 00:52:55.920
 We won't go beyond the credit amount.

00:52:55.920 --> 00:52:59.080
 The city will not pay in cash beyond that,

00:52:59.080 --> 00:53:02.480
 but yes, up to that limit of the roadway impact fee,

00:53:02.480 --> 00:53:05.720
 they do get credited any capacity enhancement.

00:53:05.720 --> 00:53:09.480
 As far as the other off-site improvements,

00:53:09.480 --> 00:53:13.720
 there is no one formula fits all.

00:53:13.720 --> 00:53:16.680
 There are times where the developer is willing to,

00:53:16.680 --> 00:53:20.160
 for his benefit as well as the overall benefit,

00:53:20.160 --> 00:53:23.460
 willing to add in more, more than the proportionality.

00:53:23.460 --> 00:53:25.840
 And at that point, we do work with them saying,

00:53:25.840 --> 00:53:30.120
 okay, if this benefits the city as well as the development,

00:53:30.120 --> 00:53:33.680
 better access, better in and out, more attractive product,

00:53:33.680 --> 00:53:37.000
 then yes, we can work with them and put it in,

00:53:37.000 --> 00:53:40.360
 but it's purely with a conversation,

00:53:40.360 --> 00:53:41.680
 with a discussion with the developer.

00:53:41.680 --> 00:53:43.160
 - Okay, thank you.

00:53:43.160 --> 00:53:47.640
 I'll try to be more active and remember that

00:53:47.640 --> 00:53:48.800
 when those things come up.

00:53:48.800 --> 00:53:53.800
 And then lastly, I recall from previous discussions

00:53:54.520 --> 00:53:59.520
 that for the mobility, vehicular access and everything,

00:53:59.520 --> 00:54:03.280
 there's a particular level of service that we aim for,

00:54:03.280 --> 00:54:05.960
 and that vehicular level of services

00:54:05.960 --> 00:54:08.400
 is sort of a amount of delay, right?

00:54:08.400 --> 00:54:09.240
 - Correct.

00:54:09.240 --> 00:54:12.120
 - But then in conjunction with this,

00:54:12.120 --> 00:54:14.200
 as we just saw in our criteria manuals,

00:54:14.200 --> 00:54:17.160
 we're instituting a, I think it called it

00:54:17.160 --> 00:54:19.600
 like a pedestrian level of service analysis

00:54:19.600 --> 00:54:21.440
 or something like that.

00:54:21.440 --> 00:54:25.200
 And when I looked through that, it didn't seem like

00:54:25.200 --> 00:54:27.840
 it was so much of a delay to the pedestrian.

00:54:27.840 --> 00:54:32.840
 It seemed like it was more safety slash ease of use, et cetera.

00:54:32.840 --> 00:54:38.240
 So I think my question is,

00:54:38.240 --> 00:54:40.440
 I understand that we have a particular amount of delay

00:54:40.440 --> 00:54:45.440
 that we're willing to stomach for vehicular level of service.

00:54:45.440 --> 00:54:46.760
 Given that it's the same term,

00:54:46.760 --> 00:54:49.920
 how should I understand the evaluation on a TIA

00:54:49.920 --> 00:54:52.040
 of the pedestrian level of service?

00:54:52.040 --> 00:54:53.600
 Given, I know it's a new process,

00:54:53.600 --> 00:54:56.720
 but just what's our goal for that?

00:54:56.720 --> 00:55:00.040
 - So a really good question.

00:55:00.040 --> 00:55:04.640
 It's very new that we're going through this process

00:55:04.640 --> 00:55:07.280
 of including more active transportation

00:55:07.280 --> 00:55:10.880
 like pedestrian and bicycle and so on and so forth.

00:55:10.880 --> 00:55:12.920
 So as the whole community

00:55:12.920 --> 00:55:17.440
 of transportation traffic engineers go through this process,

00:55:17.440 --> 00:55:19.120
 we have started on the bike side

00:55:19.120 --> 00:55:20.960
 to identify the stress level.

00:55:20.960 --> 00:55:25.400
 So which means, is it more stressful to drive on this lane

00:55:25.400 --> 00:55:29.280
 that has cars running at 40 or 50 miles really close,

00:55:29.280 --> 00:55:30.920
 three feet, four feet from you?

00:55:30.920 --> 00:55:32.040
 Yes, that's a stressful.

00:55:32.040 --> 00:55:33.480
 So the stress level is high,

00:55:33.480 --> 00:55:36.240
 which means that facility will be downgraded

00:55:36.240 --> 00:55:39.640
 or have a lesser value.

00:55:39.640 --> 00:55:42.280
 Whereas in pedestrian, at this point,

00:55:42.280 --> 00:55:46.200
 we are mostly focused on the connectivity, shortest path,

00:55:46.200 --> 00:55:50.680
 so which reduces the stress for a person to use it,

00:55:50.680 --> 00:55:53.160
 so it creates a better, so that's one thing.

00:55:53.160 --> 00:55:58.160
 And then also identifying what existing paths we have

00:55:58.160 --> 00:56:00.640
 to the most common locations,

00:56:00.640 --> 00:56:03.960
 especially like schools or any other parks,

00:56:03.960 --> 00:56:08.120
 any other attractions that pedestrians may be going to

00:56:08.120 --> 00:56:09.400
 from a development.

00:56:09.400 --> 00:56:13.160
 We identify everything in the vicinity of the area,

00:56:13.160 --> 00:56:16.520
 and that's what's included in our pedestrian impact.

00:56:16.520 --> 00:56:19.000
 And we come up with asking them,

00:56:19.000 --> 00:56:21.360
 what are the mitigation measures or improvements

00:56:21.360 --> 00:56:22.320
 that you're willing to do,

00:56:22.320 --> 00:56:26.200
 because there is certain areas that is lacking connectivity,

00:56:26.200 --> 00:56:29.000
 so that may trigger an off-site improvement for them

00:56:29.000 --> 00:56:32.280
 to extend a sidewalk and connect the missing sidewalk.

00:56:32.280 --> 00:56:35.600
 So that's what we're looking for in pedestrian at this time.

00:56:35.600 --> 00:56:37.600
 It's not necessarily the amount of delay

00:56:37.600 --> 00:56:40.160
 or how many pedestrians we can accommodate

00:56:40.160 --> 00:56:42.160
 within a five-foot sidewalk or system,

00:56:42.160 --> 00:56:44.640
 so it's very evolving at this point,

00:56:44.640 --> 00:56:46.600
 but slowly we're making sure

00:56:46.600 --> 00:56:49.080
 that we at least check the first things,

00:56:49.080 --> 00:56:51.040
 which is connection and shortest route.

00:56:51.040 --> 00:56:52.600
 - Okay, thank you. - Thanks.

00:56:52.600 --> 00:56:55.840
 - Other questions?

00:56:55.840 --> 00:56:59.880
 And let me just clarify, any mitigation measures

00:56:59.880 --> 00:57:04.000
 that come from a TIA is required to be done?

00:57:04.000 --> 00:57:11.000
 - So yes, as long as they're fully created

00:57:11.560 --> 00:57:13.640
 by the development itself.

00:57:13.640 --> 00:57:18.640
 So when development connects to a roadway,

00:57:18.640 --> 00:57:20.560
 if the roadway is already congested,

00:57:20.560 --> 00:57:23.560
 for example, there's a new driveway on the loop.

00:57:23.560 --> 00:57:24.400
 During peak hours,

00:57:24.400 --> 00:57:27.160
 everyone knows the loop is fully congested,

00:57:27.160 --> 00:57:29.400
 and you can mitigate that existing condition.

00:57:29.400 --> 00:57:31.640
 We can't ask the developer to say,

00:57:31.640 --> 00:57:34.560
 okay, now you have to put in a through lane on loop

00:57:34.560 --> 00:57:35.560
 and make it better.

00:57:35.560 --> 00:57:39.320
 So yes, any additional up to their proportional addition.

00:57:39.320 --> 00:57:42.080
 So for example, there are 100 trips on loop,

00:57:42.080 --> 00:57:44.720
 and the development is adding 20 more.

00:57:44.720 --> 00:57:46.880
 That mitigate, they need to mitigate

00:57:46.880 --> 00:57:49.280
 whatever additional delay or congestion

00:57:49.280 --> 00:57:51.080
 that those 20 trips are.

00:57:51.080 --> 00:57:53.760
 So that's the proportionality piece.

00:57:53.760 --> 00:57:54.920
 - Sure, that makes sense.

00:57:54.920 --> 00:57:57.880
 Commissioner Smith.

00:57:57.880 --> 00:57:59.600
 - This brought up a question I've never thought of

00:57:59.600 --> 00:58:01.280
 in five years of it on this commission.

00:58:01.280 --> 00:58:02.560
 (laughing)

00:58:02.560 --> 00:58:04.120
 - Tina's here.

00:58:04.120 --> 00:58:04.960
 - Tina's right here, let's do this.

00:58:04.960 --> 00:58:07.240
 - Exactly, we've got Tina now.

00:58:07.240 --> 00:58:10.160
 The mitigation on the traffic mitigation specifically,

00:58:10.160 --> 00:58:13.360
 that impact fee, is it earmarked for specifically

00:58:13.360 --> 00:58:17.080
 that area, that roadway it's being impacted?

00:58:17.080 --> 00:58:19.000
 Is that in like a balance line of a budget item

00:58:19.000 --> 00:58:20.480
 within transportation?

00:58:20.480 --> 00:58:21.960
 I guess it's really more capital improvement.

00:58:21.960 --> 00:58:24.760
 Is it like, this is an impact fee paid specifically

00:58:24.760 --> 00:58:27.600
 for loop 288, and therefore it has to go

00:58:27.600 --> 00:58:29.400
 to loop 288 projects?

00:58:29.400 --> 00:58:33.400
 And then if it's loop 288 south versus loop 288 north,

00:58:33.400 --> 00:58:35.880
 then how does that work?

00:58:35.880 --> 00:58:39.160
 - So I think later on, I think Becky will bring

00:58:39.160 --> 00:58:42.760
 the roadway impact fee ordinance and the study

00:58:42.760 --> 00:58:44.640
 in front of you and just give you overall

00:58:44.640 --> 00:58:48.880
 how that thing works, but essentially what happens

00:58:48.880 --> 00:58:51.120
 with the roadway impact fee, there are areas identified

00:58:51.120 --> 00:58:54.280
 similar to any other utility impact fee

00:58:54.280 --> 00:58:55.440
 and so on and so forth.

00:58:55.440 --> 00:58:57.480
 We have specific areas, we have identified

00:58:57.480 --> 00:59:00.520
 specific projects within the area.

00:59:00.520 --> 00:59:02.880
 It could be large arterials, it could be collectors,

00:59:02.880 --> 00:59:04.360
 so on and so forth.

00:59:04.360 --> 00:59:09.120
 And we develop a cost estimate based on today's dollar

00:59:09.120 --> 00:59:12.400
 when we're doing the study, that that's the cost estimate.

00:59:12.400 --> 00:59:14.600
 And then we collect the money that's coming in

00:59:14.600 --> 00:59:17.680
 in a whole big pot that goes towards that area.

00:59:17.680 --> 00:59:21.000
 So not necessarily a development that's located

00:59:21.000 --> 00:59:23.720
 on the south side of that particular area.

00:59:23.720 --> 00:59:26.520
 We'll contribute development or improvements

00:59:26.520 --> 00:59:30.640
 on the roadway in front of their development.

00:59:30.640 --> 00:59:34.360
 It's within that region we are, by state law, allowed

00:59:34.360 --> 00:59:37.080
 to spend that money on different projects

00:59:37.080 --> 00:59:39.560
 and the city gets to prioritize what projects

00:59:39.560 --> 00:59:43.240
 and where is more important in certain areas.

00:59:43.240 --> 00:59:46.280
 So that's how the roadway, there is a nexus study

00:59:46.280 --> 00:59:48.920
 that identifies and defines all the projects

00:59:48.920 --> 00:59:51.920
 that we are going to do and required.

00:59:51.920 --> 00:59:54.840
 And the money that's collected goes towards that.

00:59:54.840 --> 00:59:57.400
 But it's not necessarily line item loop 288

00:59:57.400 --> 00:59:58.520
 from here to here.

00:59:58.520 --> 01:00:01.920
 It's not necessarily defined, but we have some discretion

01:00:01.920 --> 01:00:03.360
 over the whole area.

01:00:03.360 --> 01:00:04.200
 - No, I wouldn't think so.

01:00:04.200 --> 01:00:06.520
 That'd be way too complicated.

01:00:06.520 --> 01:00:08.840
 We'd have dollars tied up for areas that should be needed.

01:00:08.840 --> 01:00:11.840
 But so I think you said we're gonna get a presentation

01:00:11.840 --> 01:00:12.920
 on that some other time.

01:00:12.920 --> 01:00:14.640
 So cool.

01:00:14.640 --> 01:00:15.460
 Thank you.

01:00:15.460 --> 01:00:18.960
 - Okay, I do not see any other questions

01:00:18.960 --> 01:00:21.240
 except I see Tina wanting to speak.

01:00:21.240 --> 01:00:23.560
 - Just real quick.

01:00:23.560 --> 01:00:25.880
 I wanted to let you know that this is pre-Tam's last

01:00:25.880 --> 01:00:27.160
 planning and zoning commission meeting

01:00:27.160 --> 01:00:28.560
 that you'll hear from him on.

01:00:28.560 --> 01:00:30.480
 So we purposely made sure that we could get

01:00:30.480 --> 01:00:33.720
 this boot camp presentation in before he's decided

01:00:33.720 --> 01:00:35.280
 to go pursue greener pastures

01:00:35.280 --> 01:00:37.000
 and work for another municipality.

01:00:37.000 --> 01:00:39.080
 So I just wanted to let the commission know

01:00:39.080 --> 01:00:40.680
 because I know you've had a working relationship

01:00:40.680 --> 01:00:41.840
 with him in the past.

01:00:41.840 --> 01:00:44.040
 And we appreciate all the guidance and expertise

01:00:44.040 --> 01:00:46.120
 that he has provided our organization

01:00:46.120 --> 01:00:47.680
 through the time that he's been here with us.

01:00:47.680 --> 01:00:52.000
 So embrace this opportunity to ask him all TIA related

01:00:52.000 --> 01:00:53.400
 questions that you want.

01:00:53.400 --> 01:00:56.920
 Because this will be the last time

01:00:56.920 --> 01:00:58.360
 he'll be able to address them for you.

01:00:58.360 --> 01:01:01.160
 And then obviously we have a great resource with Karina

01:01:01.160 --> 01:01:03.880
 now that she's back from her temporary leave

01:01:03.880 --> 01:01:05.720
 to take care of her newborn.

01:01:05.720 --> 01:01:07.920
 And so we're in great hands also

01:01:07.920 --> 01:01:10.520
 with Karina's transportation background and expertise

01:01:10.520 --> 01:01:13.400
 and also all of the development related work

01:01:13.400 --> 01:01:14.640
 that she's done.

01:01:14.640 --> 01:01:16.680
 She brings another level of expertise

01:01:16.680 --> 01:01:19.040
 to our transportation planning program.

01:01:19.040 --> 01:01:22.760
 Not to say that we won't miss pre-Tam, but because we will.

01:01:22.760 --> 01:01:25.720
 But actually we're still in great hands also

01:01:25.720 --> 01:01:27.440
 with Karina still being here.

01:01:27.440 --> 01:01:30.040
 So with that, any final remaining TIA questions

01:01:30.040 --> 01:01:32.040
 for pre-Tam, go ahead and fire away.

01:01:32.040 --> 01:01:34.280
 (laughing)

01:01:34.280 --> 01:01:37.240
 - I do not see any.

01:01:37.240 --> 01:01:39.840
 So see if we're gonna give you a good send off.

01:01:39.840 --> 01:01:40.960
 Pre-Tam, we will miss you.

01:01:40.960 --> 01:01:45.520
 I did not know that you were pursuing other things.

01:01:45.520 --> 01:01:46.800
 So all the best to you.

01:01:46.800 --> 01:01:49.240
 Thank you for all the time you've given us

01:01:49.240 --> 01:01:51.320
 and all the knowledge that you've shared with us.

01:01:51.320 --> 01:01:52.880
 So good luck.

01:01:52.880 --> 01:01:56.880
 - Okay, with that, I will close our work session at 6.03

01:01:56.880 --> 01:02:00.440
 and we will reconvene in council chambers at 6.30.

01:02:00.440 --> 01:02:08.040
 - Good evening and welcome to the city of Denton's

01:02:08.040 --> 01:02:09.560
 planning and zoning commission meeting

01:02:09.560 --> 01:02:13.440
 for Wednesday, October 12th, 2022.

01:02:13.440 --> 01:02:17.880
 With the quorum present, I will call us to order at 6.31 PM.

01:02:17.880 --> 01:02:20.600
 The first item on our agenda is the pledge of allegiance

01:02:20.600 --> 01:02:22.320
 to the US and Texas flex.

01:02:23.160 --> 01:02:24.360
 (laughing)

01:02:24.360 --> 01:02:27.720
 - I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States

01:02:27.720 --> 01:02:31.600
 of America and to the Republic for which it stands,

01:02:31.600 --> 01:02:34.800
 one nation under God, indivisible,

01:02:34.800 --> 01:02:36.920
 with liberty and justice for all.

01:02:36.920 --> 01:02:43.200
 Under the Texas flag, I pledge allegiance to the Texas,

01:02:43.200 --> 01:02:46.960
 one state under God, one and indivisible.

01:02:46.960 --> 01:02:52.000
 - Thank you.

01:02:52.000 --> 01:02:57.000
 The next item on our agenda is approval of our

01:02:57.000 --> 01:02:58.480
 planning and zoning commission meeting

01:02:58.480 --> 01:03:01.400
 for September 28th, the minutes from that meeting.

01:03:01.400 --> 01:03:04.640
 Is there any discussion from the commission

01:03:04.640 --> 01:03:06.560
 or I can entertain a motion?

01:03:06.560 --> 01:03:16.280
 - We are not seeing the buttons on the screen.

01:03:16.280 --> 01:03:17.120
 Point of order.

01:03:22.960 --> 01:03:27.960
 Looks like we are having a bit of technical difficulty.

01:03:27.960 --> 01:03:41.960
 No, I would back that up because no one's made a motion yet.

01:03:41.960 --> 01:03:43.800
 Yeah.

01:03:43.800 --> 01:03:46.040
 (laughing)

01:03:48.320 --> 01:03:52.160
 - Okay, do you have, do you not have a button

01:03:52.160 --> 01:03:53.760
 to make a motion?

01:03:53.760 --> 01:03:56.480
 Okay, it looks like we are gonna have to go ahead

01:03:56.480 --> 01:03:58.080
 and do hands.

01:03:58.080 --> 01:04:00.240
 So Commissioner Villarreal.

01:04:00.240 --> 01:04:03.680
 - I move to approve.

01:04:03.680 --> 01:04:04.520
 - Okay.

01:04:04.520 --> 01:04:05.800
 We have a first for approval of the minutes

01:04:05.800 --> 01:04:07.680
 for September 28th meeting.

01:04:07.680 --> 01:04:08.520
 Commissioner Smith.

01:04:08.520 --> 01:04:09.360
 - Second.

01:04:09.360 --> 01:04:10.520
 - Okay, we've got a first and a second.

01:04:10.520 --> 01:04:12.800
 Any discussion from the commission?

01:04:12.800 --> 01:04:16.000
 Okay, let's go ahead and take a roll call vote.

01:04:16.000 --> 01:04:17.400
 Commissioner Villarreal.

01:04:17.400 --> 01:04:18.320
 - Aye.

01:04:18.320 --> 01:04:19.440
 - Commissioner Smith.

01:04:19.440 --> 01:04:20.280
 - Aye.

01:04:20.280 --> 01:04:21.640
 - Commissioner Pruitt.

01:04:21.640 --> 01:04:22.480
 - Aye.

01:04:22.480 --> 01:04:23.360
 - Commissioner McDade.

01:04:23.360 --> 01:04:24.520
 - Aye.

01:04:24.520 --> 01:04:25.840
 - Commissioner Anderson.

01:04:25.840 --> 01:04:26.680
 - Aye.

01:04:26.680 --> 01:04:27.500
 - Commissioner Cole.

01:04:27.500 --> 01:04:28.340
 - Aye.

01:04:28.340 --> 01:04:29.440
 - Chair is also an aye.

01:04:29.440 --> 01:04:33.440
 That motion passes seven zero.

01:04:33.440 --> 01:04:36.920
 That will take us to our consent agenda for this evening.

01:04:36.920 --> 01:04:42.120
 And it would appear we'll have to do the same, I believe.

01:04:47.200 --> 01:04:48.520
 Commissioner Smith.

01:04:48.520 --> 01:04:50.360
 - Make a motion to approve.

01:04:50.360 --> 01:04:51.600
 - Okay, we've got a first for approval

01:04:51.600 --> 01:04:52.920
 of the consent agenda.

01:04:52.920 --> 01:04:54.840
 Commissioner Anderson.

01:04:54.840 --> 01:04:55.680
 - Second.

01:04:55.680 --> 01:04:57.040
 - Okay, first and a second for approval

01:04:57.040 --> 01:04:58.680
 of the consent agenda this evening.

01:04:58.680 --> 01:05:00.480
 Any discussion?

01:05:00.480 --> 01:05:02.800
 Okay, let's take a roll call vote.

01:05:02.800 --> 01:05:04.040
 Commissioner Smith.

01:05:04.040 --> 01:05:04.880
 - Aye.

01:05:04.880 --> 01:05:05.700
 - Commissioner Anderson.

01:05:05.700 --> 01:05:06.540
 - Aye.

01:05:06.540 --> 01:05:07.640
 - Commissioner Pruitt.

01:05:07.640 --> 01:05:08.480
 - Aye.

01:05:08.480 --> 01:05:09.320
 - Commissioner McDade.

01:05:09.320 --> 01:05:10.800
 - Aye.

01:05:10.800 --> 01:05:12.240
 - Commissioner Villarreal.

01:05:12.240 --> 01:05:13.080
 - Aye.

01:05:13.080 --> 01:05:13.900
 - Commissioner Cole.

01:05:13.900 --> 01:05:14.740
 - Aye.

01:05:14.740 --> 01:05:15.580
 - Chair is also an aye.

01:05:15.580 --> 01:05:18.680
 That motion carries seven zero.

01:05:18.680 --> 01:05:22.480
 That will take us to our items for individual consideration.

01:05:22.480 --> 01:05:26.960
 4A is PZ22-220B,

01:05:26.960 --> 01:05:28.920
 and that is to consider the approval

01:05:28.920 --> 01:05:33.140
 of our Planning and Zoning Commission calendar for 2023.

01:05:33.140 --> 01:05:34.760
 Hi there, Sean.

01:05:34.760 --> 01:05:37.880
 - So yes, Chair, members of the commission.

01:05:37.880 --> 01:05:40.400
 This is the calendar for your consideration

01:05:40.400 --> 01:05:44.180
 for the Planning and Zoning Commission meetings for 2023.

01:05:44.180 --> 01:05:46.640
 Happy to answer any questions you may have on that.

01:05:46.640 --> 01:05:48.880
 - I think we discussed that in work session.

01:05:48.880 --> 01:05:51.160
 There were no concerns on that.

01:05:51.160 --> 01:05:53.200
 Have any come up since?

01:05:53.200 --> 01:05:54.640
 Okay, thank you, Sean.

01:05:54.640 --> 01:05:55.640
 Commissioner Smith.

01:05:55.640 --> 01:05:56.720
 - Make a motion to approve.

01:05:56.720 --> 01:05:58.880
 - Okay, we've got a motion for approval.

01:05:58.880 --> 01:06:00.380
 Commissioner Villarreal.

01:06:00.380 --> 01:06:01.220
 - Second.

01:06:01.220 --> 01:06:02.280
 - Okay, we've got a first and a second

01:06:02.280 --> 01:06:06.020
 to approve the 2023 Planning and Zoning Commission calendar.

01:06:06.020 --> 01:06:08.840
 Any discussion?

01:06:08.840 --> 01:06:10.320
 Okay, Commissioner Smith.

01:06:10.320 --> 01:06:11.160
 - Aye.

01:06:11.160 --> 01:06:12.160
 - Commissioner Villarreal.

01:06:12.160 --> 01:06:13.000
 - Aye.

01:06:13.000 --> 01:06:13.820
 - Commissioner Pruitt.

01:06:13.820 --> 01:06:14.660
 - Aye.

01:06:14.660 --> 01:06:15.480
 - Commissioner McDade.

01:06:15.480 --> 01:06:16.320
 - Aye.

01:06:16.320 --> 01:06:17.160
 - Commissioner Anderson.

01:06:17.160 --> 01:06:17.980
 - Aye.

01:06:17.980 --> 01:06:18.820
 - Commissioner Cole.

01:06:18.820 --> 01:06:19.660
 - Aye.

01:06:19.660 --> 01:06:20.480
 - Chair's also an aye.

01:06:20.480 --> 01:06:22.880
 That motion carries seven, zero.

01:06:22.880 --> 01:06:28.800
 That will take us to item 4B, FP 22-0028.

01:06:28.800 --> 01:06:31.840
 I'll invite Mia up for presentation.

01:06:31.840 --> 01:06:35.360
 - Good evening, Chair, members of the commission.

01:06:35.360 --> 01:06:39.000
 I'm Mia Hines, Associate Planner.

01:06:39.000 --> 01:06:41.280
 This item is a final plight for,

01:06:41.280 --> 01:06:44.000
 I'm trying to reply for Razor Ranch Town Center

01:06:44.000 --> 01:06:46.480
 and the purpose of this plight was to establish

01:06:46.480 --> 01:06:48.320
 the easements associated with the Razor Ranch

01:06:48.320 --> 01:06:50.160
 Town Center development.

01:06:50.160 --> 01:06:53.760
 When the report went out, staff's recommendation

01:06:53.760 --> 01:06:56.880
 was of denial, but we have worked internally with staff

01:06:56.880 --> 01:06:59.320
 and with the applicants to make sure

01:06:59.320 --> 01:07:01.200
 the remaining comments were satisfied

01:07:01.200 --> 01:07:03.720
 and so now our recommendation is of approval

01:07:03.720 --> 01:07:06.760
 and I will stand for any questions you have at this time.

01:07:06.760 --> 01:07:07.760
 - Thank you, Mia.

01:07:07.760 --> 01:07:10.100
 - Any questions for Mia?

01:07:12.240 --> 01:07:13.080
 No?

01:07:13.080 --> 01:07:15.060
 Okay, thank you very much.

01:07:15.060 --> 01:07:16.240
 Commissioner Anderson.

01:07:16.240 --> 01:07:17.720
 - Make a motion to approve.

01:07:17.720 --> 01:07:19.840
 - Okay, Commissioner Smith.

01:07:19.840 --> 01:07:20.800
 - Second.

01:07:20.800 --> 01:07:23.400
 - Okay, we've got a first and a second for approval.

01:07:23.400 --> 01:07:24.480
 Any discussion?

01:07:24.480 --> 01:07:27.740
 Okay, we'll take a roll call vote.

01:07:27.740 --> 01:07:29.040
 Commissioner Anderson.

01:07:29.040 --> 01:07:29.860
 - Aye.

01:07:29.860 --> 01:07:30.700
 - Commissioner Smith.

01:07:30.700 --> 01:07:31.540
 - Aye.

01:07:31.540 --> 01:07:32.360
 - Commissioner Pruitt.

01:07:32.360 --> 01:07:33.200
 - Aye.

01:07:33.200 --> 01:07:34.040
 - Commissioner McDade.

01:07:34.040 --> 01:07:34.860
 - Aye.

01:07:34.860 --> 01:07:35.700
 - Commissioner Villarreal.

01:07:35.700 --> 01:07:36.540
 - Aye.

01:07:36.540 --> 01:07:37.360
 - Commissioner Cole.

01:07:37.360 --> 01:07:38.480
 - Aye.

01:07:38.480 --> 01:07:39.760
 - Chair is also an aye.

01:07:39.760 --> 01:07:42.520
 That motion carries seven, zero.

01:07:42.520 --> 01:07:47.520
 That will take us to 4CPP-0007B.

01:07:47.520 --> 01:07:50.680
 I'll invite Julie Wyatt up for presentation of this item.

01:07:50.680 --> 01:07:51.720
 Hi, Julie.

01:07:51.720 --> 01:07:52.560
 - Good evening.

01:07:52.560 --> 01:07:54.960
 Julie Wyatt, Senior Planner with the City of Denton.

01:07:54.960 --> 01:07:57.760
 This is a preliminary plat for the Audreau subdivision,

01:07:57.760 --> 01:08:01.000
 a single family residential subdivision south of Audre Lane.

01:08:01.000 --> 01:08:06.120
 When the agenda went out, it was a recommendation of denial

01:08:06.120 --> 01:08:08.960
 as there were a couple of items they still needed to address.

01:08:08.960 --> 01:08:10.620
 They've worked with our engineering group

01:08:10.620 --> 01:08:14.360
 and those items have been addressed and cleared

01:08:14.360 --> 01:08:16.160
 and so staff is recommending approval.

01:08:16.160 --> 01:08:18.040
 I'll be happy to answer any questions.

01:08:18.040 --> 01:08:18.920
 - Thanks, Julie.

01:08:18.920 --> 01:08:19.760
 Any questions?

01:08:19.760 --> 01:08:23.840
 Okay, thank you.

01:08:23.840 --> 01:08:25.640
 Commissioner Villarreal.

01:08:25.640 --> 01:08:27.000
 - Move to approve.

01:08:27.000 --> 01:08:29.460
 - Okay, we've got a first for approval.

01:08:29.460 --> 01:08:30.400
 Commissioner Smith.

01:08:30.400 --> 01:08:31.580
 - Second.

01:08:31.580 --> 01:08:34.600
 - Okay, we got a first and a second for approval.

01:08:34.600 --> 01:08:37.480
 This item, any discussion?

01:08:39.080 --> 01:08:40.520
 Okay, let's take a roll call vote.

01:08:40.520 --> 01:08:41.680
 Commissioner Villarreal.

01:08:41.680 --> 01:08:42.520
 - Aye.

01:08:42.520 --> 01:08:43.340
 - Commissioner Smith.

01:08:43.340 --> 01:08:44.180
 - Aye.

01:08:44.180 --> 01:08:45.020
 - Commissioner Pruitt.

01:08:45.020 --> 01:08:45.840
 - Aye.

01:08:45.840 --> 01:08:46.680
 - Commissioner McDade.

01:08:46.680 --> 01:08:47.520
 - Aye.

01:08:47.520 --> 01:08:48.340
 - Commissioner Anderson.

01:08:48.340 --> 01:08:49.180
 - Aye.

01:08:49.180 --> 01:08:50.020
 - Commissioner Cole.

01:08:50.020 --> 01:08:50.840
 - Aye.

01:08:50.840 --> 01:08:51.680
 - Chair is also an aye.

01:08:51.680 --> 01:08:54.380
 That motion carries seven, zero.

01:08:54.380 --> 01:08:58.920
 With item 4D, that item has been withdrawn

01:08:58.920 --> 01:09:03.560
 so we will not be taking action on that item this evening.

01:09:03.560 --> 01:09:07.560
 That will take us to our public hearing portion for tonight.

01:09:08.840 --> 01:09:13.360
 Call up 5A, Z22-0011.

01:09:13.360 --> 01:09:15.080
 We'll invite Sean up for presentation

01:09:15.080 --> 01:09:16.480
 and open the public hearing.

01:09:16.480 --> 01:09:18.360
 - Thank you, Chair. - Hello again, Sean.

01:09:18.360 --> 01:09:19.360
 - Good evening.

01:09:19.360 --> 01:09:22.680
 Sean Jacobson, Associate Planner.

01:09:22.680 --> 01:09:26.000
 Here to present Z22-0011.

01:09:26.000 --> 01:09:28.000
 Just gonna open up my presentation here.

01:09:28.000 --> 01:09:30.560
 All right.

01:09:30.560 --> 01:09:33.000
 Yes, Michael, thank you.

01:09:33.000 --> 01:09:36.520
 So yes, this is Z22-0011.

01:09:36.520 --> 01:09:39.080
 This is a request for a rezoning from

01:09:39.080 --> 01:09:40.760
 current mixed use regional zoning

01:09:40.760 --> 01:09:42.840
 to a light industrial zoning

01:09:42.840 --> 01:09:47.160
 on a property located between Bartholomew Road and FM 1173.

01:09:47.160 --> 01:09:49.880
 It's approximately 53.6 acres.

01:09:49.880 --> 01:09:52.200
 The property is currently mostly undeveloped.

01:09:52.200 --> 01:09:53.520
 There is one single family dwelling

01:09:53.520 --> 01:09:55.340
 as well as a plugged gas well.

01:09:55.340 --> 01:09:59.480
 Of course, we want to consider all of our criteria,

01:09:59.480 --> 01:10:02.680
 but particularly alignment with our comprehensive plan

01:10:02.680 --> 01:10:03.880
 and our future land use map.

01:10:03.880 --> 01:10:06.640
 As you can see here, the comprehensive plan

01:10:06.640 --> 01:10:10.440
 future land use map calls for light industrial in this area.

01:10:10.440 --> 01:10:13.200
 And this request would align with, of course,

01:10:13.200 --> 01:10:14.600
 that future land use.

01:10:14.600 --> 01:10:19.360
 In addition, our comprehensive plan in action 3.1.1

01:10:19.360 --> 01:10:22.400
 encourages us to ensure that there is adequate land

01:10:22.400 --> 01:10:25.080
 available particularly for non-commercial development

01:10:25.080 --> 01:10:26.080
 in the future.

01:10:26.080 --> 01:10:28.920
 And this rezoning would help to accomplish that

01:10:28.920 --> 01:10:31.320
 by ensuring that there is light industrial

01:10:31.320 --> 01:10:34.480
 zone land available for those types of future development.

01:10:34.480 --> 01:10:39.440
 Also want to specifically address the current zoning

01:10:39.440 --> 01:10:42.080
 on the property of MR, which could be a little bit surprising

01:10:42.080 --> 01:10:43.800
 given that it's so out of line

01:10:43.800 --> 01:10:45.640
 with our current future land use map.

01:10:45.640 --> 01:10:50.640
 Briefly, that was put in place back in the 2002 zoning.

01:10:50.640 --> 01:10:55.880
 And at the time, the 1999 to 2020 comprehensive plan

01:10:55.880 --> 01:10:58.720
 was expecting that there would be a major entertainment

01:10:58.720 --> 01:11:01.840
 and shopping area that would develop out there.

01:11:01.840 --> 01:11:04.200
 And since then, of course, Razor Ranch has developed

01:11:04.200 --> 01:11:05.480
 as that area.

01:11:05.480 --> 01:11:08.040
 And in addition, we've seen more of a trend

01:11:08.040 --> 01:11:11.160
 of industrial development in that area.

01:11:11.160 --> 01:11:13.000
 And so based on that, the comprehensive plan

01:11:13.000 --> 01:11:15.000
 most recently approved in 2022

01:11:15.000 --> 01:11:17.720
 reflects those changed expectations.

01:11:17.720 --> 01:11:20.800
 And this zoning would bring the property back into line

01:11:20.800 --> 01:11:22.440
 with our comprehensive plan.

01:11:22.440 --> 01:11:23.920
 As you can see there, just highlighted

01:11:23.920 --> 01:11:25.720
 some of the residential uses that would be permitted

01:11:25.720 --> 01:11:28.560
 by right now, which would not necessarily be in line

01:11:28.560 --> 01:11:31.720
 with the comprehensive plan expectations for this property.

01:11:31.720 --> 01:11:36.200
 So overall, this request does meet our criteria

01:11:36.200 --> 01:11:37.040
 for approval.

01:11:37.040 --> 01:11:41.320
 We did also go through our standard notification process.

01:11:41.320 --> 01:11:43.960
 We have not received any responses,

01:11:43.960 --> 01:11:45.680
 they're positive or negatively.

01:11:45.680 --> 01:11:48.800
 The applicant did hold a neighborhood meeting

01:11:48.800 --> 01:11:52.160
 and we were able to hear from some of the neighbors.

01:11:52.160 --> 01:11:54.240
 They were not opposed, they did have some questions

01:11:54.240 --> 01:11:56.720
 and concerns related to lighting,

01:11:56.720 --> 01:11:58.800
 transportation, security.

01:11:58.800 --> 01:12:01.000
 And we were able to discuss those with them.

01:12:01.000 --> 01:12:05.360
 So overall, staff is recommending approval

01:12:05.360 --> 01:12:08.280
 of the change to the Light Industrial Zoning District

01:12:08.280 --> 01:12:09.600
 on this property.

01:12:09.600 --> 01:12:11.720
 That is my presentation, but I'm happy to stand

01:12:11.720 --> 01:12:12.560
 for any questions.

01:12:12.560 --> 01:12:15.120
 And the applicant is also here and does have a presentation.

01:12:15.120 --> 01:12:16.200
 - Excellent, great.

01:12:16.200 --> 01:12:20.000
 Any questions for Sean at this time?

01:12:20.000 --> 01:12:24.240
 Okay, thank you, Sean.

01:12:24.240 --> 01:12:26.000
 I do not have any cards, but I'll go ahead

01:12:26.000 --> 01:12:29.560
 and invite the applicant up for their presentation.

01:12:29.560 --> 01:12:36.080
 I'd call you by name if I had your card, but that's okay.

01:12:36.080 --> 01:12:37.960
 I said I'd call you by name if I had your card

01:12:37.960 --> 01:12:40.440
 in front of me, but if you will just state your name

01:12:40.440 --> 01:12:42.320
 and address it and your time will begin.

01:12:42.320 --> 01:12:43.160
 - Yes, Todd Finley, CLX Ventures.

01:12:43.160 --> 01:12:44.320
 How are you all doing tonight?

01:12:44.320 --> 01:12:45.160
 - Good evening.

01:12:45.160 --> 01:12:45.980
 - Thank you for your time.

01:12:45.980 --> 01:12:50.640
 I won't take too long, but CLX Ventures,

01:12:50.640 --> 01:12:54.280
 we're currently building a industrial development

01:12:54.280 --> 01:12:56.520
 just south of this site.

01:12:56.520 --> 01:13:00.360
 You probably noticed it if you're driving by 35 lately.

01:13:00.360 --> 01:13:03.360
 But it'll be three buildings, 1.1 million square feet.

01:13:03.360 --> 01:13:07.760
 So we definitely know the area and know the staff

01:13:07.760 --> 01:13:08.840
 and know the process.

01:13:08.840 --> 01:13:15.960
 Brad Copeland and Tony Long are our co-founders,

01:13:15.960 --> 01:13:19.340
 both with 30 years of experience in real estate.

01:13:20.680 --> 01:13:24.680
 I have 20 years of construction and development experience.

01:13:24.680 --> 01:13:31.720
 This is just a map of the cities and locations

01:13:31.720 --> 01:13:34.560
 we're currently developing in or have developed in.

01:13:34.560 --> 01:13:38.580
 Our main focus is across the I-35 corridor,

01:13:38.580 --> 01:13:41.480
 large cities and that.

01:13:41.480 --> 01:13:43.080
 Right now we're only Texas-based,

01:13:43.080 --> 01:13:47.460
 but we don't have any plans to expand out of Texas right now.

01:13:49.880 --> 01:13:53.480
 This is just a photo of a rendering we did

01:13:53.480 --> 01:13:55.940
 at DFW Airport and then an actual building,

01:13:55.940 --> 01:13:59.100
 later leased that to Amazon.

01:13:59.100 --> 01:14:07.900
 This is another facility we finished in Duncanville,

01:14:07.900 --> 01:14:10.960
 leased it and sold it to the user.

01:14:10.960 --> 01:14:16.260
 This is a project that Brad and I worked together

01:14:16.260 --> 01:14:20.600
 on four or five years ago in Houston on I-45.

01:14:20.600 --> 01:14:28.520
 This is a conceptual site plan

01:14:28.520 --> 01:14:29.980
 for what we're planning to do.

01:14:29.980 --> 01:14:35.000
 We have, as Sean said, we did have a neighborhood meeting.

01:14:35.000 --> 01:14:38.320
 We've been coordinating with the city staff

01:14:38.320 --> 01:14:43.320
 as far as engineering on the idea

01:14:43.760 --> 01:14:47.920
 of having a north-south collector that will be required.

01:14:47.920 --> 01:14:51.080
 We're working with the adjacent landowner

01:14:51.080 --> 01:14:54.840
 to acquire or have a right-of-way dedication.

01:14:54.840 --> 01:14:57.460
 We understand that requirement

01:14:57.460 --> 01:14:59.680
 that the city has put on us.

01:14:59.680 --> 01:15:02.120
 It's not shown on here, but it would be

01:15:02.120 --> 01:15:04.140
 on the western side of the property.

01:15:04.140 --> 01:15:09.320
 The tie-in up at Barthol Road will be the exact tie-in

01:15:09.320 --> 01:15:13.480
 'cause that aligns with the future expansion

01:15:13.480 --> 01:15:14.880
 with TxDOT on Barthol.

01:15:14.880 --> 01:15:20.960
 And then our main drive in the middle of the two buildings

01:15:20.960 --> 01:15:24.920
 ties in with our 1173 improvements

01:15:24.920 --> 01:15:28.720
 that we're currently working on approval with on TxDOT.

01:15:28.720 --> 01:15:32.900
 That's all.

01:15:32.900 --> 01:15:33.740
 Any questions?

01:15:33.740 --> 01:15:35.360
 - Great.

01:15:35.360 --> 01:15:36.320
 Any questions?

01:15:36.320 --> 01:15:38.600
 We do not see anything.

01:15:38.600 --> 01:15:40.440
 Thank you for your presentation.

01:15:40.440 --> 01:15:42.200
 - Thank you. - Appreciate it.

01:15:42.200 --> 01:15:44.320
 I don't have any cards in front of me to speak,

01:15:44.320 --> 01:15:45.440
 but this is a public hearing,

01:15:45.440 --> 01:15:47.680
 so anyone from the audience who wishes

01:15:47.680 --> 01:15:49.680
 to speak on this item certainly can.

01:15:49.680 --> 01:15:59.560
 Hi, if you'll just give your name and address,

01:15:59.560 --> 01:16:00.560
 your time will begin.

01:16:00.560 --> 01:16:01.400
 Hi.

01:16:01.400 --> 01:16:03.080
 - Good evening, I'm Gretchen Van Olken.

01:16:03.080 --> 01:16:06.280
 I've been a lawyer in Denton for quite some time,

01:16:06.280 --> 01:16:08.800
 and I've represented Evelyn Barthold

01:16:08.800 --> 01:16:13.080
 who owns the 73 acres just adjacent to this property

01:16:13.080 --> 01:16:15.440
 to the west of this property.

01:16:15.440 --> 01:16:16.880
 She was unable to be here tonight,

01:16:16.880 --> 01:16:18.560
 but I spoke with her this afternoon.

01:16:18.560 --> 01:16:19.520
 We've represented her.

01:16:19.520 --> 01:16:21.760
 My firm has for 15 to 20 years.

01:16:21.760 --> 01:16:23.000
 She authorized me to let you know

01:16:23.000 --> 01:16:25.440
 that she has no objection to this project.

01:16:25.440 --> 01:16:26.280
 - Very good.

01:16:26.280 --> 01:16:27.280
 Thank you for coming out.

01:16:27.280 --> 01:16:33.840
 Anyone else wishing to speak on this item?

01:16:33.840 --> 01:16:37.720
 Okay.

01:16:37.720 --> 01:16:39.680
 Seeing none, I will close the public hearing

01:16:39.680 --> 01:16:42.760
 and open the floor for discussion or a motion.

01:16:42.760 --> 01:16:46.320
 Commissioner Smith.

01:16:46.320 --> 01:16:48.440
 - Make a motion to approve.

01:16:48.440 --> 01:16:49.280
 - Commissioner McDade.

01:16:49.280 --> 01:16:50.100
 - Second.

01:16:50.100 --> 01:16:51.600
 - Okay, we've got a first and a second

01:16:51.600 --> 01:16:53.140
 for approval of this request.

01:16:53.140 --> 01:16:55.640
 Is there any further discussion by the commission?

01:16:55.640 --> 01:16:57.840
 Okay.

01:16:57.840 --> 01:16:59.680
 Seeing none, we'll take a roll call vote.

01:16:59.680 --> 01:17:00.800
 Commissioner Smith.

01:17:00.800 --> 01:17:03.040
 - Aye.

01:17:03.040 --> 01:17:03.880
 - Commissioner McDade.

01:17:03.880 --> 01:17:04.700
 - Aye.

01:17:04.700 --> 01:17:05.540
 - Commissioner Pruitt.

01:17:05.540 --> 01:17:06.380
 - Aye.

01:17:06.380 --> 01:17:07.680
 - Commissioner Anderson.

01:17:07.680 --> 01:17:08.520
 - Aye.

01:17:08.520 --> 01:17:09.800
 - Commissioner Villarreal.

01:17:09.800 --> 01:17:10.620
 - Aye.

01:17:10.620 --> 01:17:11.560
 - Commissioner Cole.

01:17:11.560 --> 01:17:12.600
 - Aye.

01:17:12.600 --> 01:17:14.000
 - Chair is also an aye.

01:17:14.000 --> 01:17:16.600
 That motion carries seven zero.

01:17:16.600 --> 01:17:23.900
 That will take us to 5B, Z22-0014.

01:17:23.900 --> 01:17:25.840
 I'll invite Angie up for presentation

01:17:25.840 --> 01:17:28.060
 and open the public hearing.

01:17:28.060 --> 01:17:28.900
 - Thank you.

01:17:28.900 --> 01:17:29.720
 Good evening, Chair.

01:17:29.720 --> 01:17:31.460
 Give me just one moment.

01:17:31.460 --> 01:17:37.640
 Angie Mingler is Senior Planner, City of Den.

01:17:37.640 --> 01:17:42.640
 This is zoning case Z22-0014, Stella Hills.

01:17:42.640 --> 01:17:44.960
 The proposed request is for approximately

01:17:44.960 --> 01:17:48.000
 84.9 acre tract of land,

01:17:48.000 --> 01:17:49.440
 currently zoned rural residential,

01:17:49.440 --> 01:17:51.840
 residential four and mixed use neighborhood

01:17:51.840 --> 01:17:54.840
 to a zoning designation of residential six.

01:17:54.840 --> 01:17:57.460
 It is located on the south side of East McKinney Street

01:17:57.460 --> 01:18:01.080
 at the intersection of East McKinney and Laney Circle.

01:18:01.080 --> 01:18:03.640
 The subject property has a future land use designation

01:18:03.640 --> 01:18:06.640
 of low residential in the Den 2040 plan.

01:18:06.640 --> 01:18:08.640
 It is currently predominantly undeveloped.

01:18:08.640 --> 01:18:11.340
 There are three single family detached dwellings

01:18:11.340 --> 01:18:13.280
 on the eastern portion of the site.

01:18:13.280 --> 01:18:14.640
 On the southwest corner of the site,

01:18:14.640 --> 01:18:16.560
 there is existing FEMA floodplain,

01:18:16.560 --> 01:18:19.440
 as well as a 50 foot wide Atmos gas easement

01:18:19.440 --> 01:18:21.760
 that clips that southwest corner.

01:18:21.760 --> 01:18:23.200
 To the east of the development

01:18:23.200 --> 01:18:27.760
 is the existing Townsend Green development zoned R4.

01:18:27.760 --> 01:18:28.940
 I'm sorry, that's to the west.

01:18:28.940 --> 01:18:31.800
 To the east of the development is undeveloped R6.

01:18:31.800 --> 01:18:32.820
 And then to the south,

01:18:32.820 --> 01:18:36.000
 there is existing undeveloped residential two zoning.

01:18:36.000 --> 01:18:38.240
 Into the north, north of McKinney Street there,

01:18:38.240 --> 01:18:41.560
 there is a strip of undeveloped mixed use neighborhood

01:18:41.560 --> 01:18:43.520
 as well as R6 zoning.

01:18:43.520 --> 01:18:47.840
 This application was reviewed in accordance

01:18:47.840 --> 01:18:50.860
 with the requirements in DDC subchapter two,

01:18:50.860 --> 01:18:52.600
 as well as against the goals

01:18:52.600 --> 01:18:55.040
 in the Den 2040 comprehensive plan.

01:18:55.040 --> 01:18:57.720
 The Den 2040 plan calls for this area

01:18:57.720 --> 01:19:00.120
 to develop predominantly as low residential,

01:19:00.120 --> 01:19:03.080
 which calls for lot sizes ranging in one acre

01:19:03.080 --> 01:19:05.880
 up to five units per acre gross density.

01:19:05.880 --> 01:19:08.120
 The proposed R6 zoning is consistent

01:19:08.120 --> 01:19:10.120
 with the future land use designation.

01:19:10.120 --> 01:19:11.400
 However, it is important to note

01:19:11.400 --> 01:19:13.360
 that some of the uses permitted in R6,

01:19:13.360 --> 01:19:15.160
 such as triplexes and fourplexes,

01:19:15.160 --> 01:19:18.120
 while not directly consistent with the future land use plan,

01:19:18.120 --> 01:19:20.520
 are consistent with the existing development pattern

01:19:20.520 --> 01:19:23.000
 and zoning within this corridor.

01:19:23.000 --> 01:19:25.640
 The Den 2040 plan also calls

01:19:25.640 --> 01:19:28.040
 for providing diverse housing options

01:19:28.040 --> 01:19:30.400
 in varieties of density, styles, and price points.

01:19:30.400 --> 01:19:33.760
 More specifically, goal HN1 calls for the development

01:19:33.760 --> 01:19:35.240
 and maintenance of a housing stock

01:19:35.240 --> 01:19:37.520
 that meets the needs of all residents

01:19:37.520 --> 01:19:41.360
 to provide an array of choices in type, cost, and locations.

01:19:41.360 --> 01:19:43.640
 The proposed R6 zoning is consistent

01:19:43.640 --> 01:19:45.760
 with the achievement of that goal.

01:19:45.760 --> 01:19:50.600
 This site does have a bit of ESA,

01:19:50.600 --> 01:19:53.480
 as well as potential ESA on it,

01:19:53.480 --> 01:19:57.000
 as evidenced by the preferred land preservation map

01:19:57.000 --> 01:19:57.960
 that you see here.

01:19:57.960 --> 01:20:02.080
 Submitted in concurrence with the zoning application

01:20:02.080 --> 01:20:04.400
 was an ESA field assessment.

01:20:04.400 --> 01:20:06.800
 Along the southern portion of the subject property,

01:20:06.800 --> 01:20:08.960
 there are potential riparian buffers,

01:20:08.960 --> 01:20:12.440
 as well as upland habitat and water-related habitat ESAs

01:20:12.440 --> 01:20:13.560
 that may exist.

01:20:13.560 --> 01:20:16.040
 Should these ESAs be confirmed,

01:20:16.040 --> 01:20:18.560
 any development that is not permitted by right

01:20:18.560 --> 01:20:23.560
 in 7.4.7 of the DDC would require review and approval

01:20:23.560 --> 01:20:26.400
 of an alt ESA plan by city council.

01:20:26.400 --> 01:20:28.960
 At this time, the ongoing ESA has confirmed

01:20:28.960 --> 01:20:31.240
 that the potential riparian buffer shown there

01:20:31.240 --> 01:20:33.640
 in the center of the subject property

01:20:33.640 --> 01:20:37.560
 does not appear to meet the criteria for riparian buffers.

01:20:37.560 --> 01:20:42.160
 The ESA map will be reflected to remove that designation

01:20:42.160 --> 01:20:44.200
 once the entirety of the field assessment

01:20:44.200 --> 01:20:48.440
 has been completed to remove the potential

01:20:48.440 --> 01:20:51.520
 ESA riparian buffer that is shown here on this plan.

01:20:51.520 --> 01:20:55.000
 This application was reviewed in accordance

01:20:55.000 --> 01:20:59.200
 with the review criteria as set forth in DDC subchapter two,

01:20:59.200 --> 01:21:01.280
 and staff is forwarding it this evening

01:21:01.280 --> 01:21:03.200
 with a recommendation of approval.

01:21:03.960 --> 01:21:06.240
 Public outreach was conducted in accordance

01:21:06.240 --> 01:21:08.320
 with state law and city ordinances.

01:21:08.320 --> 01:21:10.960
 At this time, we've not received any responses

01:21:10.960 --> 01:21:12.960
 to those outreach efforts,

01:21:12.960 --> 01:21:15.760
 and a neighborhood meeting for this case was not held.

01:21:15.760 --> 01:21:18.440
 Staff is forwarding this to you this evening

01:21:18.440 --> 01:21:20.760
 with a recommendation of approval as it complies

01:21:20.760 --> 01:21:23.440
 with the criteria in DDC subchapter two.

01:21:23.440 --> 01:21:26.460
 The next step in this project will be a public hearing

01:21:26.460 --> 01:21:29.360
 at city council on October 18th,

01:21:29.360 --> 01:21:31.400
 and I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.

01:21:31.400 --> 01:21:34.200
 I believe the applicant is also here with a presentation.

01:21:34.200 --> 01:21:36.240
 - Great, thank you, Angie.

01:21:36.240 --> 01:21:38.260
 Any questions at the moment for Angie?

01:21:38.260 --> 01:21:42.560
 Thank you very much.

01:21:42.560 --> 01:21:45.000
 I'll go ahead and invite the applicant up

01:21:45.000 --> 01:21:47.560
 for their presentation.

01:21:47.560 --> 01:21:48.400
 Good evening.

01:21:48.400 --> 01:21:50.000
 If you'll give us your name and address,

01:21:50.000 --> 01:21:51.180
 your time will begin.

01:21:51.180 --> 01:21:56.800
 - Good evening, my name is Sean Faulkner.

01:21:56.800 --> 01:21:57.880
 I'm with the Foresight Group.

01:21:57.880 --> 01:22:00.840
 My office is at 1999 Bryan Street in Dallas.

01:22:02.280 --> 01:22:04.680
 I'm here, the developer is here as well

01:22:04.680 --> 01:22:06.480
 with Allied Development.

01:22:06.480 --> 01:22:08.060
 Talking about Stella Hills,

01:22:08.060 --> 01:22:11.680
 just kind of a brief overview with current zoning.

01:22:11.680 --> 01:22:15.760
 The zonings around us are residential.

01:22:15.760 --> 01:22:17.600
 So again, with the comprehensive plan,

01:22:17.600 --> 01:22:19.480
 we feel that the residential uses

01:22:19.480 --> 01:22:25.560
 with our six requests fulfills with the adjacent properties.

01:22:25.560 --> 01:22:31.080
 And then here's our concept plan

01:22:31.080 --> 01:22:34.680
 that we have developed showing,

01:22:34.680 --> 01:22:37.540
 right now we have 326 homes.

01:22:37.540 --> 01:22:41.620
 The tract on the top of the property,

01:22:41.620 --> 01:22:45.000
 that's a seller retained property,

01:22:45.000 --> 01:22:46.880
 we'll probably be developing that,

01:22:46.880 --> 01:22:50.600
 platting that as by three to four additional lots,

01:22:50.600 --> 01:22:54.020
 but the current landowner will retain ownership of those.

01:22:54.020 --> 01:22:57.040
 Right now, with this land plan,

01:22:57.040 --> 01:22:59.960
 average lot size is about 7,500 square feet.

01:23:01.120 --> 01:23:04.120
 And we planning to have eight and a half acres

01:23:04.120 --> 01:23:05.480
 of open space.

01:23:05.480 --> 01:23:09.920
 As you can see, we're very concerned with

01:23:09.920 --> 01:23:12.500
 cross connections with the properties adjacent to us.

01:23:12.500 --> 01:23:14.920
 On the bottom of our screen, which is to our west,

01:23:14.920 --> 01:23:17.220
 that's the towns and green subdivision.

01:23:17.220 --> 01:23:19.400
 We're connecting to two street stub outs

01:23:19.400 --> 01:23:20.840
 that they have provided.

01:23:20.840 --> 01:23:23.120
 And we are continuing two street stub outs

01:23:23.120 --> 01:23:26.520
 to our east to the undivided property on that side.

01:23:29.200 --> 01:23:31.680
 Trails up along McKinney Street,

01:23:31.680 --> 01:23:33.600
 there is a, I believe an eight foot trail

01:23:33.600 --> 01:23:36.140
 that towns and green is constructed.

01:23:36.140 --> 01:23:37.800
 And we will continue that trail.

01:23:37.800 --> 01:23:41.240
 On the southwest corner,

01:23:41.240 --> 01:23:43.800
 we have been working with city staff

01:23:43.800 --> 01:23:48.800
 to add a potential segment of the concrete trail

01:23:48.800 --> 01:23:52.220
 that I believe that they're in the,

01:23:52.220 --> 01:23:55.120
 about 30% design development stage.

01:23:55.120 --> 01:23:58.960
 But we are working with them and we're investigating,

01:23:58.960 --> 01:24:03.080
 putting that trail in and helping them with Atmos

01:24:03.080 --> 01:24:04.280
 as a part of that trail.

01:24:04.280 --> 01:24:08.720
 We'll probably go along the Atmos easement for that.

01:24:08.720 --> 01:24:11.360
 Other amenities, we are also looking to put

01:24:11.360 --> 01:24:16.360
 a top lot playground area in along our natural buffer.

01:24:16.360 --> 01:24:20.380
 To the south of us is core property.

01:24:20.380 --> 01:24:22.680
 So that property will never develop

01:24:22.680 --> 01:24:24.420
 as part of Lake Louisville.

01:24:27.200 --> 01:24:28.920
 Currently, we have the zoning case.

01:24:28.920 --> 01:24:33.920
 And as Angie mentioned, we have ESA submittal under review.

01:24:33.920 --> 01:24:36.840
 And our current schedule,

01:24:36.840 --> 01:24:39.800
 we'll be coming up with a plan in December,

01:24:39.800 --> 01:24:42.960
 go through construction plan reviews January to March

01:24:42.960 --> 01:24:47.960
 and plan to start construction late spring in this year,

01:24:47.960 --> 01:24:49.680
 or next year.

01:24:49.680 --> 01:24:52.320
 So if you have any questions, I'll be happy to answer them.

01:24:52.320 --> 01:24:53.160
 - Thank you.

01:24:53.160 --> 01:24:53.980
 It does appear so.

01:24:53.980 --> 01:24:54.820
 Commissioner Smith.

01:24:54.820 --> 01:24:56.320
 - Thank you, Chair.

01:24:56.320 --> 01:24:58.560
 - I know you said you had a conceptual plan.

01:24:58.560 --> 01:25:00.920
 This is a zoning case, and so I understand that.

01:25:00.920 --> 01:25:03.280
 On your conceptual plan, you said that's a big priority

01:25:03.280 --> 01:25:05.320
 of you guys to make sure that this property,

01:25:05.320 --> 01:25:08.760
 if approved, would be developed with connectors within there.

01:25:08.760 --> 01:25:11.840
 That neighborhood to your east, or to your west, I'm sorry.

01:25:11.840 --> 01:25:12.680
 - Yes.

01:25:12.680 --> 01:25:13.800
 - That's all, those are all cul-de-sacs

01:25:13.800 --> 01:25:14.960
 with backyards and that kind of thing.

01:25:14.960 --> 01:25:16.360
 So I don't know if there's--

01:25:16.360 --> 01:25:19.360
 - No, well, there's two street sub-outs over that side.

01:25:19.360 --> 01:25:20.200
 - Okay.

01:25:20.200 --> 01:25:21.040
 - That they have stubbed out

01:25:21.040 --> 01:25:21.880
 and we'll be connecting to those.

01:25:21.880 --> 01:25:24.800
 - Do you know what roads those are?

01:25:24.800 --> 01:25:26.360
 - I do not know the names of the roads,

01:25:26.360 --> 01:25:30.500
 but they are, I've been out there in their barricades.

01:25:30.500 --> 01:25:31.340
 - Okay.

01:25:31.340 --> 01:25:32.160
 - And blocking them.

01:25:32.160 --> 01:25:36.800
 So they're intended to be extended onto our property.

01:25:36.800 --> 01:25:39.400
 - Okay.

01:25:39.400 --> 01:25:40.240
 Thank you.

01:25:40.240 --> 01:25:44.280
 - Any other questions at this time?

01:25:44.280 --> 01:25:48.080
 I do not see any.

01:25:48.080 --> 01:25:49.520
 Thank you for being here.

01:25:49.520 --> 01:25:51.400
 I don't have any cards in front of me,

01:25:51.400 --> 01:25:54.160
 but is there anyone wishing to speak who's here?

01:25:54.160 --> 01:25:56.060
 Anyone wishing to speak on this item?

01:25:56.060 --> 01:26:02.200
 Okay, seeing none, I will close the public hearing

01:26:02.200 --> 01:26:07.200
 and I will open the floor for motion or discussion.

01:26:07.200 --> 01:26:10.120
 Wow, and our board is working suddenly.

01:26:10.120 --> 01:26:11.280
 Commissioner Cole.

01:26:11.280 --> 01:26:19.520
 Thank you.

01:26:19.520 --> 01:26:20.340
 Commissioner Cole.

01:26:20.340 --> 01:26:22.040
 - I make a motion for approval.

01:26:22.040 --> 01:26:23.480
 - Commissioner Anderson.

01:26:23.480 --> 01:26:24.680
 - I make a second.

01:26:24.680 --> 01:26:27.640
 - Okay, we've got a first and a second for approval.

01:26:27.640 --> 01:26:28.920
 Is there any discussion?

01:26:28.920 --> 01:26:34.520
 Okay, seeing none, I believe we can vote on the board.

01:26:34.520 --> 01:26:38.800
 If we get that option.

01:26:38.800 --> 01:26:46.280
 It's not lighting us at the moment.

01:26:46.280 --> 01:26:49.360
 Okay.

01:26:49.360 --> 01:26:50.240
 Well, that's okay.

01:26:52.040 --> 01:26:54.160
 Oh, there we go.

01:26:54.160 --> 01:26:55.760
 Okay, we can vote on the board.

01:26:55.760 --> 01:27:11.840
 That motion carries seven zero.

01:27:11.840 --> 01:27:16.840
 That will take us to five CZ two two dash zero zero one six.

01:27:16.840 --> 01:27:20.440
 I'll go ahead and invite Julie up.

01:27:20.440 --> 01:27:23.560
 If you wanted to say anything or I can just introduce it,

01:27:23.560 --> 01:27:24.400
 it's up to you.

01:27:24.400 --> 01:27:27.880
 I'll go ahead and open the public hearing

01:27:27.880 --> 01:27:28.780
 while we have that.

01:27:28.780 --> 01:27:32.400
 - We don't have a presentation tonight,

01:27:32.400 --> 01:27:35.480
 but they are on the agenda.

01:27:35.480 --> 01:27:38.480
 It shows that they're requesting to postpone

01:27:38.480 --> 01:27:40.760
 to a date certain of October 26th.

01:27:40.760 --> 01:27:42.160
 - Okay, very good.

01:27:42.160 --> 01:27:43.000
 Thank you.

01:27:43.000 --> 01:27:49.420
 So with that, I will leave the public hearing open

01:27:49.420 --> 01:27:52.000
 and ask for a motion.

01:27:52.000 --> 01:27:53.120
 Commissioner Villarreal.

01:27:53.120 --> 01:27:55.080
 - I move to postpone to a date certain

01:27:55.080 --> 01:27:57.440
 of October 26th, 2022.

01:27:57.440 --> 01:27:59.040
 - Great, thank you, Commissioner Smith.

01:27:59.040 --> 01:27:59.880
 - Second.

01:27:59.880 --> 01:28:01.520
 - Okay, we've got a first and a second

01:28:01.520 --> 01:28:03.040
 for approval of the postponement

01:28:03.040 --> 01:28:05.400
 to a date certain of October 26th.

01:28:05.400 --> 01:28:06.280
 Any discussion?

01:28:06.280 --> 01:28:11.960
 Okay, seeing none, let's vote on the board.

01:28:19.240 --> 01:28:21.960
 That motion carries seven, zero.

01:28:21.960 --> 01:28:23.400
 That will take us to our Planning

01:28:23.400 --> 01:28:25.480
 and Zoning Commission matrix.

01:28:25.480 --> 01:28:27.620
 And I will turn it over to Haley.

01:28:27.620 --> 01:28:30.600
 - All right, good evening.

01:28:30.600 --> 01:28:32.920
 We actually have not had any items go to council

01:28:32.920 --> 01:28:36.020
 since our last PNZ meeting, so nothing new to report there

01:28:36.020 --> 01:28:37.500
 other than we did get our budget approved,

01:28:37.500 --> 01:28:38.920
 so we can all celebrate that.

01:28:38.920 --> 01:28:40.240
 - Yes.

01:28:40.240 --> 01:28:42.440
 - And I did just wanna make sure you all were aware

01:28:42.440 --> 01:28:43.880
 that a revised matrix was sent out

01:28:43.880 --> 01:28:45.280
 after the agenda was posted

01:28:45.280 --> 01:28:47.400
 'cause we accidentally had an outdated copy on there.

01:28:47.400 --> 01:28:50.000
 So you'll see we did have removed several items

01:28:50.000 --> 01:28:52.360
 that we've recently accomplished through our boot camps

01:28:52.360 --> 01:28:54.340
 and other work session discussions.

01:28:54.340 --> 01:28:56.360
 So we're happy to consider adding anything else

01:28:56.360 --> 01:28:57.240
 that you all may have.

01:28:57.240 --> 01:28:58.320
 - Great, thank you.

01:28:58.320 --> 01:28:59.160
 Commissioner Smith.

01:28:59.160 --> 01:29:00.000
 - Thank you, Chair.

01:29:00.000 --> 01:29:01.320
 I brought it up in work session, Haley.

01:29:01.320 --> 01:29:03.840
 I'd like to be able to have a longer discussion possibly

01:29:03.840 --> 01:29:06.800
 about after the TIA presentation today,

01:29:06.800 --> 01:29:08.640
 really just a deeper scrutinization

01:29:08.640 --> 01:29:10.780
 of how when we see zoning cases,

01:29:10.780 --> 01:29:13.840
 specifically zoning and SUP cases,

01:29:13.840 --> 01:29:18.720
 that would predicate a TIA having some more context,

01:29:18.720 --> 01:29:21.360
 specifically on, I know the impact fees

01:29:21.360 --> 01:29:23.720
 are gonna be discussed at a future work session

01:29:23.720 --> 01:29:26.280
 there in a boot camp, but having something involved

01:29:26.280 --> 01:29:29.080
 in the presentations of this would trigger,

01:29:29.080 --> 01:29:32.240
 this does not trigger traffic mitigation items

01:29:32.240 --> 01:29:34.040
 that may be required because of this,

01:29:34.040 --> 01:29:36.480
 that there's not enough funds to come with that,

01:29:36.480 --> 01:29:38.360
 just so there's some more clarification,

01:29:38.360 --> 01:29:40.640
 both to the public as well as the commissioners.

01:29:40.640 --> 01:29:43.260
 Not only that the TIA does what it's supposed to,

01:29:43.260 --> 01:29:45.720
 obviously, which is try to measure

01:29:45.720 --> 01:29:47.240
 what generated traffic's gonna be

01:29:47.240 --> 01:29:49.640
 and what safety protocols need to be in place,

01:29:49.640 --> 01:29:53.240
 but give me some context of whenever a project is ahead,

01:29:53.240 --> 01:29:56.340
 maybe possibly what traffic issues we may be causing,

01:29:56.340 --> 01:29:59.400
 even though there is mitigation in a TIA in place,

01:29:59.400 --> 01:30:01.760
 but how long that might be until that's done.

01:30:01.760 --> 01:30:04.520
 So more context is essentially what I'm searching for there.

01:30:04.520 --> 01:30:05.360
 - Okay.

01:30:05.360 --> 01:30:06.180
 - Thank you, Haley.

01:30:06.180 --> 01:30:10.000
 - Anything else for the matrix?

01:30:12.560 --> 01:30:13.760
 - Tina.

01:30:13.760 --> 01:30:14.840
 - Tina Fergens, planning director.

01:30:14.840 --> 01:30:16.720
 Just a reminder of the upcoming joint meeting

01:30:16.720 --> 01:30:19.580
 that should be on your calendars for next Tuesday.

01:30:19.580 --> 01:30:20.500
 We start at noon.

01:30:20.500 --> 01:30:23.760
 - Thank you for that reminder.

01:30:23.760 --> 01:30:26.240
 Okay.

01:30:26.240 --> 01:30:28.400
 Any concluding items from the commission?

01:30:28.400 --> 01:30:30.880
 Commissioner Villarreal?

01:30:30.880 --> 01:30:32.360
 - And we are still starting early

01:30:32.360 --> 01:30:34.760
 next PNZ meeting, correct?

01:30:34.760 --> 01:30:36.120
 - I believe that is the plan,

01:30:36.120 --> 01:30:38.880
 and I would assume that, yeah,

01:30:38.880 --> 01:30:41.640
 we'll get clarification on that at exactly what time,

01:30:41.640 --> 01:30:45.000
 but yeah, that will be the plan in two weeks.

01:30:45.000 --> 01:30:45.840
 Yes.

01:30:45.840 --> 01:30:46.660
 - Yeah, I believe right now we're planning

01:30:46.660 --> 01:30:47.500
 for a 3 p.m. start.

01:30:47.500 --> 01:30:48.320
 - Okay.

01:30:48.320 --> 01:30:52.000
 - As the PNZ convening as the CIAC that day.

01:30:52.000 --> 01:30:54.960
 - Right, right, right, okay.

01:30:54.960 --> 01:30:56.760
 Any other concluding items?

01:30:56.760 --> 01:30:58.880
 Okay.

01:30:58.880 --> 01:31:01.980
 I will go ahead and adjourn us at 6.59 p.m.

01:31:01.980 --> 01:31:03.480
 Thank you very much, everyone.
