PLANNING
1. Please realize that this property has been zoned single-family residential as of
January 1, 2002 and was originally platted before July 15, 1970. According to
Section 18 of the Subdivision Regulations this plat must meet 2 criteria if it creates
an additional lot: a) meet or exceed the average width of the lots in the block, and b)
contain 8,500 sq. ft. It is my understanding that if you can show how numerous
surrounding properties have indeed subdivided in a similar manner, Staff would
support a variance to Section 18 in this instance.
2. Due to the fact that this property has been zoned single-family residential and seeks
to create an additional lot, there is a public hearing required along with notification of
the surrounding property owners. The City will be notifying according to the State
Statute provisions.
3. Please provide Deed Restrictions applicable to this property, if any, for Staff review.
4. The property owner on the application is not the same as the owner identified on the
plat. Please clarify.

AGENDA ITEM NO. 9: Public hearing, discussion, and possible action on a
Final Replat for the Richards Subdivision Lot 10 located at 129 Richards Street.
(02-82)
Staff Planner Hitchcock presented the Staff Report. Ms. Hitchcock stated that this plat
requires a variance to Section 18 of the Subdivision Regulations in order to be approved.
She also stated that Staff recommends approval of the variance and the plat. She
explained that this area was platted before the City had Subdivision Regulations and that
by 1980 many of the lots on Richards had been subdivided, and have created lots that still
meet the minimum R-1 single family residential lot requirements. Regulations over the
re-platting of older properties was created to ensure that development and re-
development in the older sections of town didn't exceed the capacity of the existing
infrastructure or create an incompatible increase in density. Ms. Hitchcock reported that
the subject property is planned for high density.
Chairman Floyd opened the public hearing.
Chairman Floyd closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Williams motioned to approve the variance and the plat. Commissioner
Trapani seconded the motion. The motion carried 7-0.
AGENDA ITEM NO. 10: Public hearing, discussion, and possible action on a
Conditional Use Permit for the Haskins Wireless Telecommunication Transmission
Tower located at 207 Dominik Drive. (02-99)
Staff Planner Reeves presented the Staff Report. Ms. Reeves reported that the
Commission recently approved an 84-foot stealth tower at this exact location with the
same color and design. The proposed new tower would take the place of the previously
approved tower. Prior to construction, an application to raise the tower to 118-feet was
submitted. Staff does not believe a tower of this size at this location meets the Stealth
Technology Ordinance provision. Therefore, Staff recommends denial. Additionally,
Staff has concerns regarding the increased height that creates an impact on the adjacent
neighborhood. Also, by moving the 118-foot pole 34 feet closer to the front of the
property increases the impact on Dominik. The previous public hearing resulted in a split
vote by the Commission as well as concerns expressed by both the Commission and
residents.
Chairman Floyd pointed out that at the previous public hearing, he abstained due to his
responsibilities connected with Texas A&M University. However, negotiations have not
occurred and are not an issue and will take part in this hearing.
Chairman Floyd opened the public hearing.
