Southlake Hills Subdivisions of Southlake to prevent Creekview street and Chimney Hill Trail
from being constructed as through streets and connecting with Dartmouth Drive. The petition
is hereby made a part of the record.
Public Comments:
John Blackburn, 1003 Chimney Hill Trail, Southlake. Mr. Blackburn expressed the concerns
of the majority of the residents with the plan to extend the streets. They wish to endorse Phil
Jobe as a developer, and the one acre lots being proposed. This plan will connect three
additions with the new one. Drainage was noted as an issue. The citizens have become
concerned with through streets that will connect Continental Blvd. with F.M. 1709. How the
city will control crime, and the safety of the children axe concerns.
Regular City Council Meeting Minutes
November 1, 1994
page eleven
Agenda Item #8-G. Continued
Fire and anabulance is not an issue here, as noted by the Fire Department. Police response time
is an issue. They will not argue this point. He referenced response time from various points
in the city and within subdivisions. Residents in the three subdivisions recognize the delay in
response time. People in the subdivisions are prepared to forfeit the response time vs. not
having a through street. They want to provide a safe environment. They want to ask the City
Council to approve the plan approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission.
Rex Potter, 303 Waterford Court, Southlake. Mr. Potter stated he is the chairman of the Stone
Lakes Homeowners Association. They are pleased with Mr. Jobe's development. The people
are informed. They hope City Council will listen to each speaker.
Gene Hanson, 1306 Lakeway Drive, Stone Lakes, Southlake. Mr. Hanson stated he was
involved with the petition and 215-245 households feel strongly enough that this is what they
want to sign. He stated the citizens want to know that City Council is listening to them.
Joe Smith, 2049 Wedgewood Drive, Timarron, Southlake. Mr. Smith stated he in the Coalition
of Neighborhoods, and wished to voice his support for the citizens of the three neighborhoods.
Melissa Ripley, 901 Chimney Hill Trail, Southlake. Ms. Ripley stated she concurs with
everything that has been said.
Mark Pace, 806 Hillcrest Trail, Southlake. Mr. Pace stated they approve 100% what is being
said by the homeowners. He has four children under eleven years old and they are more
concerned with safety than response time.
Carolyn Hobbs, SPIN #14 Representative. Mrs. Hobbs stated on behalf of all the neighbors on
the crime issue, she has one thought. What will be necessary in the future, by connecting the
neighborhoods, would that be causing problems in the future?
Hagi Agili, 912 Chimney Hill Trail, Southlake. Mr. Agili asked Council to keep the plan as
presented tonight, with no through streets. He stated he feels the Southlake Police Department
is the best around, and he referred to response time.
Helen Eve, The Nelson Corporation. In response to the staff review letter,//2 dated 10-28-94,
they ask that City Council delete items #1 and//2, as the P&Z has. Item #3, whatever the City
Council chooses to do.
Councilmember Farrier commented in regard to cul-de-sac's not
serving more than twenty houses as noted in the subdivision
ordinance, and stated he feels there was logic when it was written.
Regular City Council Meeting Minutes
November 1, 1994

Aeenda Item gS-G. Continued
Farrier stated he still feels the logic is good. He thinks the logic
that requires stub streets to the south was good and is still good.
He applauds the homeowers for their interest in this item, and the
way they presented their information and the way they brought
their community together to look at this issue. It is conceivable
that if we continue to develop subdivisions with minable numbers
of entrance and access points, that at some point and time, we will
have a subdivision that is blocked out to get any response. He
stated he is reluctant to see closing of streets that have been on the
drawing board for over five years. He stated he cannot support
that concept. If he could support concept, he would not go against
the subdivision ordinance.
Councilmember Richarme asked The Nelson Corporation
representative if they have had any traffic counts done and do they
know the number of vehicles in a twenty-four hour period that
might use that as a connector. The answer was no.
Mayor Fickes commented that he can support the crime and safe
streets issue. He stated he feels what the neighborhoods want is
realistic.
Phil Jobe, 3830 Oak Lawn, Dallas. Mr. Jobe stated the zoning requested is for one acre lots,
and the owner will keep the 13 acres for her self. She plans to give an acre to each of her
children and that is all. He referenced many meetings he has had with the homeowners, and
noted this is a real issue to the homeowners. He took it very serious as a developer.
Councilmember Farrier asked Mr. Jobe if he can develop this plan
with no stubs and comply with the subdivision ordinance.
Councilmember Franks asked Mr. Jobe if the streets are stubbed
out, but City Council requires the developer to follow the
subdivision ordinance and does not grant a variance on it, what
will he do? Will it remain undeveloped or will he come back with
another plan that meets the subdivision ordinance?
Regular City Council Meeting Minutes

A~,enda Item #8-G. Continued
Mr. Jobe stated he does not know. This would put him in a tough position. If he gets put in
a box, he feels it is unfair to put him in a box. Mr. Jobe stated he addressed the subdivision
ordinance on the first submittal, and was directed by the Planning and Zoning Commission to
come back with this plan.
Councilmember Farrier stated he could not in good conscience,
allow this much of a subdivision to come in and not be in
compliance with the subdivision regulations.
Gene Hanson pointed out that their are thirty-five lots on a cul-de-sac in Stone Lakes.
Mayor Fickes stated he feels what was done here originally was
good planning; it made good sense at the time. He is not sure it
makes sense now. In the future we will probably have a fire
station in that area.
Councilmember Richarme stated he feels Council did themselves
a disservice by not continuing Cambridge.
Greg Last, Director of Community Development, commented that
all lots on the cul-de-sac meet the requirements of the curvilinear
ordinance, the requirement is 50% of the lots must be on a cul-
de-sac or have a radius of 800' or less. In his opinion, it wouldn't
meet the requirement.
Jeff Pitsbrough, 903 Chimney Hill, Southlake. Mr. Pitsbrough stated most people thought
Chimney Hill would be extended, but only to about 40 houses, not 250 houses.
Councilmember Apple asked, could you look at this as an isolated
picture, however, he has a bigger concern, 250 homes going out
two roads onto F.M. 1709. We have done it before.
Motion was made to approve ZA 94-128, 1st reading, subject to the Staff Review Letter g2, of

Elizabeth Niewald, opposed; Stone Lakes Homeowners Association, Board of Directors and
Officers submitted a letter addressing their concerns.
Councilmember Farrier asked about different alignments and
configurations in the area. If this plan was inverted, where the
road were on the north side, and the cul-de-sac comes to the south.
Is that a plan that would work better or worse?
Mr. Jobe commented they have major drainage problems in that area they are trying to correct.
Greg Last commented you would have to run the storm drain
between lot lines, rather than in the street.
Councilmember Farrier complimented the developer for his
willingness to work with the homeowners and City Staff. It has
been a pleasure working with him. He has listened to Council and
made changes.

Agenda Item #10-B. Variance to Sign Ordinance for Wal-Mart
Bob Whitehead, Director of Public Works presented the request for variance to the sign
ordinance for Wal-Mart, stating Adams Engineering has made the request. The total signage
request is for two pole signs, one monument sign and wall signage on the east elevation of the
building. A copy of the memorandum from Mr. Whitehead dated October 26, 1994 is hereby
attached to the minutes.
Danny Adams, Adams Engineering was present representing Wal-Mart.
The variances as outlines in the memorandum from Mr. Whitehead were discussed.
Councilmember Farrier stated the information provided by Wal-
Mart is not to scale, the representation of the lettering is not to
scale and he has a hard time making an aesthetic judgement as to
what is appropriate at that location without a suitable rendering.
Mr. Farrier did not place the blame on Mr. Adams, but would like
this item to be brought back when more accurate renderings are
available to Council for review.

A~enda Item #10-C. Develooer Aereement for Shady Oaks School
Director of Public Works, Bob Whitehead, led the discussion regarding the Developer
Agreement for Shady Oaks Elementary School. He stated the agreement contains the standard
language, however there are several noteworthy items that makes this agreement unique,
including:
Page 3. Section E PERIMETER STREET FEES: No Perimeter Street Fee will
be required from the Project because CISD has agreed to be responsible for the
cost of widening Shady Oaks Drive to three lanes the entire frontage of the school
property.
Page 3. Section F, ON-SITE SEWER LIFT STATION: Because there is no
sewer system in place to allow gravity flow service, CISD agrees to construct a
lift station necessary to handle the anticipated flow of the school. The City
agrees to perform murine maintenance on the lift station, but CISD will pay any
cost for components needed for repair.
Page 3. Section C. START OF CONSTRUCTION: The City will not require
CISD to submit payment and performance bonds before construction.
Page 5. Part IV. Section A. OFF-SITE DRAINAGE: CISD is not required to
contribute drainage pro-rata at this time, because of on-site detention provided by
CISD. If in the future the on-site detention facility is removed by CISD, drainage
pro-rata will be required to be paid by CISD. The amount of the pro-rate
contribution will be calculated at that time.
Page 5. Section B., OFF-SITE WATER: The Master Plan requires an 8-inch
water line in Shady Oaks Drive. The fire flow demands for the school facility
require that a 12-inch line be in place. The City agrees to pay for the 8-inch
water line and CISD will pay the difference of $24,950 for the over-sizing cost.

Page 5. Section E., LANDSCAPING/FENCING: A joint landscaping project
