The meeting was called to order at 7:00 P.M. by Chairman Calliham and on motion by Commissioner Wallace, seconded by Commissioner Miller, the minutes of the June 5, 1972 meeting were unanimously approved. Agenda Item No. 2 - P&Z Case No. 25-72 - Review of a preliminary plat of Dobrovolny Subdivision. City Planner George Eby explained the location of the tract of land and stated that the city staff had reviewed the plat and found it to be technically in order and a viable plan with the following exceptions. The Anderson Street extension south of Holleman should be platted in its full width, not as a half-street as shown in the pre- 'd liminary. I.E. : the plat should include the entire 70-foot right-of-way as opposed to a partial right-of-way. Also, Mr. Eby pointed out that "Anderson Court", "Bee Creek Court", and'Honk Court" are not suitable names since these names are very similar to names used elsewhere in the city. Mr. J. W. Wood informed the commission that this would be the first phase of developing the property. Mr. Wood stated the reason they had stopped at this point was that there was no possibility of negotiating with the adjacent property owners to bear some of the expense of Anderson Street. Council Liaison Don Dale questioned as to whether it had been considered for Holik Drive to go into Anderson? If so, there will be a problem as the existing Holik Drive is a 36-foot street. Chairman Calliham stated that going from a 36-foot street to a 28-foot street would not be good planning for the city. Mr. W. D. Fitch asked if Haines Street was planned to be continued into the area. Mr. Wood stated that it was intended to be continued adjacent to the tract and that it would be shown on a later plat of the adjacent area. Mr. Fitch then asserted that he believed Haines Street would extend into this tract and not the later adjacent tract. It was found that the answer would need to be resolved by a more detailed exam- ination of the tract and that other maps would be required. Since the legal deadline for approving or disapproving the plat was near,the commission, upon motion by Commissioner wok Longley, seconded by Commissioner Chaney, voted unanimously to reconvene the meeting 6 at 5:00 P.M. , Tuesday, July 11, 1972 to give further review to the case. r Minutes Planning and Zoning Commission July 10, 1972 Page 2 Agenda Item No. 3 - Hear a presentation of a plan for development of the Boriskie tract by Mr. Bill Zac. Mr. Bill Zac, owner of Zac Construction Company of Houston, presented his "second plan" for development of the Boriskie tract. Mr. Zac stated that his com- pany would like to think of this project as a "satellite community". The plan called for over 1100 dwelling units consisting of single family dwelling units, townhouses, condiminiums, and apartments. Also shown on the plan was a hospital site, a professional clinic, a public school site, and several commercial areas. Mr. Zac explained that since the Southwest Parkway was planned to be on the Krenek-Boriskie (Zac) property line, participation of both parties should be expected. Mr. Zac stated that he had contacted the Krenek family and found that they were not ready to participate financially in the construction of Southwest Parkway. Mr. Hugo Krenek was present at the meeting and stated that his family was very much in favor of seeing Southwest Parkway being constructed, but they were not in the developing business and were not financially able to participate in this project. Consequently, Mr. Zac's approach would be to reserve the right-of-way for Southwest Parkway and develop the other interior streets. A lengthy discussion of how the Southwest Parkway could be installed in the future was held. Council Liaison Don Dale questioned if Mr. Zac would have incentive to participate in the construction of Southwest Parkway in the future if he had already 411 constructed a thru-street to serve his development. It was discovered that there would be many complications involved in delaying construction cf Southwest Parkway and of installing a substitute street 400 to 500 feet north of the Krenek-Boriskie property line. Agenda Item No. 4 - Review Preliminary Scope of Services for 701 Planning Grant. The City Planner reviewed a narrative of a Preliminary Scope of Services for a 701 Planning Grant. The narrative is enclosed as a part of these minutes. Agenda Item No. 5 - Initiate a formal review of land use plan. The first review of a proposed land use plan for College Station was held. The commissioners agreed to review their copies of the land use plan at home and to re- turn their plans to the city planner for compilation and further study by the commission at the next meeting. Agenda Item No. 6 - Other Business. The commission heard a request for a public hearing by Mr. Larry Landry for commercial zoning of Lot 1 and 5 feet of Lot 2 of Block B of the College Heights Addi- tion. The commission acknowledged that the request appeared to be for spot-commercial zoning, but also acknowledged that this area will more than likely be zoned commercial in the future as the area across University Drive is now commercially zoned. On motion by Commissioner Wallace, seconded by Commissioner Cooley, the commission unanimously 110 voted to place Mr. Landry's request on the agenda for a public hearing. r Minutes Planning and Zoning Commission July 10, 1972 Page 3 Agenda Item No. 7 - Hear Visitors.
