Jun 17, 2020 Planning and Zoning Commission on 2020-06-17 5:30 PM

>> Good evening, ladies and gentlemen and welcome to the planning and zoning commission work session for June 17, 2020. Seeing that we do have a quorum, I call this meeting to order at 532. The first item of business is to discuss the minutes. Is there any edits that need to be done to the minute meetings? Okay. Seeing none. Let's get into our consent agenda. There's two items here. If anyone has any questions, we certainly can invite staff up. Does anyone have any questions on item 2 or 3A or 3B? Commissioner Beck? >> Yes. Thank you, Chair. Can I get -- who is that? Haley? Can I get Haley to highlight the changes from last meeting where they were against another four? I think it was just drainage and plans, but I'd just like her to -- she could just highlight the changes to the plan. And Haley, personally I don't need a full presentation if you could just highlight the changes. I don't know what the rest want or what chair wants. >> That's fine. Thank you. >> All right. I'm sorry. I couldn't hear your question originally. You were inquiring about the drainage, I believe? >> Whatever changed between the previous plan we saw two weeks ago that you wanted to deny and this plan that you want to accept. They had some issues to work out with their engineering plans primarily related to the drainage easement. The easement that you see here that follows the shape of the property just off the boundary has been decided upon as the final drainage easement location to get the drainage from McKinney street down to the floodplain. So now that they've worked through all of that and that easement location has been determined the plat is able to move forward for approval. >> All right. That was my only question. Thank you, Haley. >> You're welcome. >> Thank you very much, Haley. Is there any other questions for Haley or Karina regarding the two consent agenda items? Seeing none, we will move into the individual consideration items. Item 4A is requesting a 30-day extension as well as item 4B is requesting a 30-day extension. And so historically we've gone ahead and skipped those presentations for the extension. So we can without any opposition jump to 4C, which is PP 20-0011A. And if Julie Wyatt's available, I'd love a presentation on the item. There she is. >> Chair, while she's pulling this up, I just wanted to make a clarification while the caption in the agenda says denial, the AIS is for approval. So just want to make sure everyone understands that the recommendation is approval. What happens, unfortunately, with the plat, we get the changes a lot of times, sometimes an hour before we finalize the packet, which was similar to this one, and we just did not get the caption update, so I apologize for that. Thank you for that clarification. >> Sorry. Give me just a second. I'm pulling up the presentation. >> No worries, Julie. >> Okay. Sorry, I closed out of the presentation. Okay. So this is PP 11A. You saw this in our last Planning and Zoning Commission there. They did have to make some corrections to it. They have made those corrections. One was regarding the right-of-way along Loop 288. There was some question about that that is being dedicated to the city. There are also just some cleanup items they needed to do and some cleanups with some easements. So staff is recommending approval because it meets the established requirements, and I'll answer any questions. >> Thanks, Julie. Is there anyone -- looks like Commissioner Beck. >> Julie, I know I asked you this last time this was brought before us, but can you refresh my memory on what the district says that Wilson or Evers can support from this property? >> As far as -- >> The district -- the school district, sorry. >> Sure. Well, I'll need to pull up the SUP staff report, so give me just a minute. I'll pull that up and I'll be able to answer your question. So, yes, this site was the subject of a specific use permit that was approved late last year. That was SP19 -- sorry, let me get to it. I'm sorry, S19. That's looking in the wrong section. Here we go. S19-3. Sorry about that. So we did contact the school regarding the potential student generation for the site, and they -- and also did that analysis of the students that would be generated. So per that -- that student generation formula, the proposal would generate about 112 elementary students, 37 middle school students, and 40 high school students. It is located in the Wilson attendance zone, Wilson, Strickland, and then Ryan High School. That number of elementary school -- that number of elementary students would potentially stress the capacity of Wilson. However, Denton ISD sort of looks at their student generation rights on a yearly basis, may have to modify some of their district boundaries or the school boundaries for that. So they'll just have to look at that and see where those students would need to go, whether that -- they would go to Evers or Wilson in the future. Okay. I just encourage planning and development to be mindful of these overloaded schools that we keep seeing. I know you are. I know you're following code. I just -- it feels like there's -- we've got a couple schools that are really getting a lot of kiddos dumped into them, and that's a stress point for the district, I know. Thank you, Julie. I appreciate it. Sure. Thank you, Julie. Any other questions for Julie on this item? Fantastic. I appreciate it, Julie. Next item of business is item 5A. This has been postponed indefinitely and will be re-noticed at a later date. And then, Richard, correct me if I'm wrong, but what's going on with item 5B that's also being postponed? That's also being postponed. We can just do that to a date I'm certain we will re-notice it right now. But we have not closed on the property, so we're still waiting to see if that's going to happen. So we don't need to open a public hearing since it will be -- it will all be redone, correct? Correct. Okay. That concludes our agenda for this evening. Commissioner Beck? So does that mean we're here -- we're going to open and close the public hearing just bam-bam? Or how does that work? I'm not going to even open it. I'll call the item and then the vote to postpone is a superseding vote outside like a public hearing or not. So I'll call the item and then someone can motion to postpone it to a date indefinitely and I'll take that. Any other questions for tonight's agenda? Fantastic. The regular meeting is scheduled for 630, I believe it's still 630. So we will take a kind of a brief hiatus here and reconvene at 630. It is 543 right now. Close the work session. Thank you. Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting for Wednesday, June 17th, 2020. Seeing that we do have a quorum, I'll call the meeting to order at 631. The first item on our agenda is to provide a pledge of allegiance to the U.S. flag and the Texas flag. That will be on your screen. If you'd like to join me, you can unmute your mic.

Commissioner Ellis. Aye. Commissioner Anderson. Aye. Commissioner Cole. Aye. Commissioner Preneta. Aye. Motion carries 7-0. The next item of business is our public hearing items. Both of these items, both 5A and 5B are city initiated. And so at the direction of staff, these items are just being pulled to a date, uncertain they will be re-noticed. There's no vote for these items. So they're just being withdrawn from the agenda. There will not be a presentation on either one. And then once they're posted, they would go through the agenda process again and be brought back to this commission. With that, that moves us to our concluding items, number six on the agenda. I will turn the floor to Richard Canone and then to the commission for discussion. Just briefly, I don't have much to update other than some council action last night. The Buckees PD was approved, as was the Canopy Trails comp plan amendment and rezoning. And so those are the two, really three actions that council took last night. Great. Thank you for the update. Does anyone have any questions for staff or for the matrix, any additions to be added this evening? Commissioner Beck? Given the, okay, I'll just say my confusion over the calendaring. Can we have the calendars not match the Zoom reservation, but have the calendars match when you want us to attend? Certainly. I think what had happened in this instance, unfortunately, Kathy was out on vacation. I think she usually sends an update for whatever reason that didn't happen, but we'll make sure that happens in the future. I appreciate that. Thank you. Any other questions for staff or additions to be added to the matrix? Okay. Seeing none, that concludes our planning and zoning commission meeting for June 17th. I will close this meeting at 6.37. Thank you. Good night.
