Agenda Item No. 1 - Approval of minutes of the meeting of March 4 , 1974 . Commissioner Mathewson pointed out that a paragraph in the minutes under "Agenda Item No. 1" had been deleted. The first paragraph of "Agenda Item No. 1" should be amended to read as follows : Commissioner Wallace offered the following correction to the minutes of the February 18 meeting: The last paragraph under Agenda Item No. 3 should read: 410 "Commissioners Wallace and Miller emphasized that the minutes should clearly reflect that the request would be approved if presented along with an acceptable plan of development. " Commissioner Mathewson offered the following correction to the minutes of the February 26 meeting: Beginning from the second paragraph, the minutes should read: "The meeting was called to consider a master pre- liminary plat and a final plat of Section One, Lake Village Place. The developers had to meet a deadline which is this date, February 26, or face a considerable financial loss. The request was to get approval of the first section so that they would be able to provide a letter of guarantee for Section One and construct the utilities. They would then be able to get their building permit. The original final plat of Lake Village Place is to be considered as a master preliminary plat for the remaining installments . The minutes are to reflect that the zoning is contingent on the master preliminary plat being followed as the subsequent sections are developed. Commissioner Boyett moved that the minutes of the meeting of March 4 be approved as amended above. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Chaney and unanimously approved. Agenda Item No. 2 -- Hear visitors . No one spoke. MINUTES , Planning and Zoning Commission Page 2 March 18 , 1974 Agenda Item No. 3 -- Consideration of Preliminary Plat of Southwood, Section 20. The City Planner showed the location of the tract and stated that it was a continuation of adjacent development and was surrounded by previously developed subdivisions . Commissioner Chaney asked about the dimensions and access of Lot 12, Block 7 . Mr. W. D. Fitch, the developer, said that the lot would provide an adequate building site but that the adjoining owner in the Camelot Addition might want to buy it. He stated further that this development was intended to satisfy a market for smaller open lots and that the minimum square footage of homes therein would be restricted to 1200 square feet. Commissioner Chaney moved to accept the preliminary plat. Commissioner Longley seconded the motion and it was approved unanimously with Commissioner Boyett abstaining. Agenda Item No. 4 -- Consideration of a zone change request for nine tracts at the intersection of State Highway 6 South and FM 2818 . The City Planner pointed out the location and acreage of each of the tracts. Chairman Calliham observed that the apartment tract adjacent to the single family residential tract was so designed that the apartment land would be opposite the rear lot lines of the proposed single family residences. He felt that this arrangement might be objectionable due to the private nature of rear yards and that facing the two types of uses across a street would be better . Mr. Fitch said that major streets were being used as buffers along part of the residential tract in areas where it was not intended that lots should front on these streets. He expressed the view that apartments across 411 residential street from single family residential lots would create some problems with apartment tennants and guests parking on the street. Mr. Fitch explained at length his concept of the development of the entire tract, which in conjunction with a tract to be developed by Community Savings and Loan would total 1200 acres. He pointed out that the gross area of apartment and commercial zoned lands would be reduced by about 30% due to the wide right-of-ways to be platted in these areas. Commissioner Mathewson asked about the depth of the shallow portion of the 74 acre General Commercial tract. Mr. Fitch replied that the depth, after additional right-of-way was granted the Highway Department, would be 175 feet which would allow for a 70 foot setback, a 70 foot building and a 30 foot rear setback. Chairman Calliham opened the public hearing. No one spoke and the hearing was closed. Commissioner Longley moved that the Commission recommend approval of the zoning requests . The motion was seconded by Commissioner Chaney and unanimously approved with Commissioner Boyett abstaining. Agenda Item No. 5 -- Consideration of a zone change request for the Shiloh Club two acre tract. At the request of M. B. Calliham, represen- tative of the applicants, this item was deleted from the agenda. 411 Agenda Item No. 6 -- Other business. There was no other business. MINUTES, Planning and Zoning Commission Page 3 March 18 , 1974 Agenda Item No. 7 -- Adjourn. Commissioner Longley moved to adjourn. 111 The motion was seconded by Commissioner Mathewson and unanimously approved.
