increased traffic on Brock Drive. Chairman Wright asked if this facility will have any impact on
Brock Drive. Mr. Stone stated that it will have no impact to Brock Drive. Mr. Stone stated that this
facility will be accessed from Southlake Boulevard and their main parking lot.
Commissioner Creighton asked Mr. Stone if he knows what prompted the concern from the Brock
Drive residents. Mr. Stone stated that he recently talked to Ms. Vargas and Ms. Perry about their
concerns. He stated that the Church of Christ allows other churches and groups use of their facilities.
He stated that another church used the building on Brock Drive several weeks ago and thought they
could access it from Brock Drive; they had several cars parked up and down Brock Drive as a result.
Mr. Stone stated that because of that incident, they have created a checklist for the users of the
facilities. He said that one of the items on the checklist states, "No access from or no parking on
Brock Drive," and that everyone must sign off on the checklist before they use the facilities.
Mr. Stone offered to not let other groups use this building besides Church of Christ members.
Chairman Wright stated that he does not advocate that they not allow other groups use of this
building, but if the church has other buildings available, then maybe they should use the other
buildings first in order to keep the neighbors happy. Mr. Stone stated that he would be happy to
limit use of that building to Sunday and Wednesday classes only.
Chairman Wright opened the public hearing.
Wayne Haney (SPIN Representative #15) stated that this is a right and proper use for this facility.
He stated that the initial concerns from the residents stemmed from the residents thinking that the
child care facility is being moved to Brock Drive and once they understood that it was not, they were
in favor of the request. He recommended approval of this request.
Chairman Wright closed the public hearing.
Motion was made to approve ZA97-122 subject to Concept Plan Review Summary No. 1, dated
September 12, 1997.

AGENDA ITEM #11. SIDEWALK ORDINANCE NO. 683:
Ronnie Kendall (Parks and Recreation Boardrepresentative) stated that she met with the Park Board
regarding the Commission's concerns at the last meeting. She stated that she understood the two (2)
main concerns to be: conformance with the Trail System Master Plan and the requirement of small
residential developers to comply with the sidewalk ordinance. She stated that they completely
removed conformance with the Trail System Master Plan. She said that in Section 2.02.A., they
specified only "major" subdivisions (5 houses or more). She said that the "4" should be changed to
Vice-Chairman Murphy asked who wrote the "Sidewalk Specifications" section, and Ms. Kendall
stated that City Engineer Ron Harper wrote it.
Chairman Wright opened the public hearing. No one in the audience stepped forward to speak.
Chairman Wright closed the public heating.
Regarding Section 2.01, Chairman Wright stated that Item 'B' encompasses Item 'A' and questioned
whether Item 'A' could be eliminated altogether. Ms. Kendall stated that it probably could be
eliminated.
Chairman Wright stated that he does not agree with the requirement of 1,500' from a school. He
stated that he does not have a problem with requiring a sidewalk from commercial developers and
subdivisions, but he does not think the City should require a sidewalk from a person who is going
to build one (1) home and who happens to live within 1,500' from a school.
Commissioner Jones stated that he feels the Commission needs to be careful to not require more
from an individual property owner than the property owner's development will benefit from that
service whether it be a bike trail or sidewalk.
Chairman Wright stated that upon further evaluation of Section 2.01, he feels that Items 'A' and 'B'
need to be eliminated. He stated that he does not have a problem with the City or the school district
using his tax money to build sidewalks, but he does not think it should be required of a single lot
home owner.
Commissioner Edmondson stated that she does not want to see a single lot home owner penalized
in any way either and feels that the language could be modified in a way that will accomplish the
Commission's goal.
Commissioner Creighton questioned if "adjacency to" the school site should be considered when
requiring sidewalks.

Vice-Chairman Murphy stated that Section 2.01 .A. is very poorly worded because it is does not
clarify how the 1,500' is measured and from what point it is measured. He said it is not terribly clear
what we are trying to accomplish with this language.
Commissioner LeVrier stated that his main problem with Section 2.01.B. is the words, "as deemed
necessary by the Planning and Zoning Commission or City Council." He stated that if we are trying
to develop a plan, then it needs to be point-blank.
Commissioner Creighton stated that if the only way to get this ordinance passed is to limit it to major
subdivisions, then she will agree to that. Commissioner Edmondson agreed with Commissioner
Creighton.
Chairman Wright stated that if there happens to be a trail required on a particular piece of property
and the developer or builder is required to put in a 4' sidewalk, then go ahead and have them put in
a 6' sidewalk and the City should pay for the 2' difference.
Vice-Chairman Murphy agreed with Chairman Wright and stated that would be a part of the
Developers Agreement with the City.
Commissioner Jones asked when this ordinance will go into effect.
In the Subdivision Ordinance, Planner Dennis Killough. stated that anybody who has an approved
plat of any kind (Preliminary Plat, Plat Showing, or Plat Revision) and has not filed any subsequent
plats from that approval are locked into any regulations that were in place when that initial plat was
approved.
Chairman Wright suggested that the wording should be changed to "The developer or builder..."
in Section 2.02.B.
Commissioner Creighton suggested the following change to Section 2.02.D. and the Commission
agreed:
on ~.,~ ~i frontages
"Any ~--'~-'- ~ frontage lots shall have sidewalks placed "- ......
a acent to e streets .... v ~..v ......... ~ .....o.......~ .......... v ............ ~,,.'~
Chairman Wright suggested that the above change should be added to Section 2.03 Non-residential
Requirements, too, and that Section 2.03.B. should be deleted. The Commission agreed to that
change.
The following changes were agreed to by the Commission in Section 3.01.A.:
Sidewalk Locations: All sidewalks shall be at least four feet wide, ' '
L ............... , ............. ~ ...... , and constructed ~n the area between the curb or grade
