THE SCREEN ON YOUR. THE PORTION OF THE SCREEN ON YOUR RIGHT SHOWS.

THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATES THIS AREA AS EMPLOYMENT GROWTH CENTER.

AGAIN, THE PROPOSED PLANNED DEVELOPMENT IS REQUESTING TO ALLOW FOR UNDERLYING ZONING DISTRICT OF I INDUSTRIAL WITH THE ADDED USES THERE ON YOUR SCREEN LEFT.

WITH THE PROPOSED PLANNED DEVELOPMENT REQUIRING SPECIFIC USES FOR THOSE USES ON SCREEN OF ON THE SCREEN RIGHT.

THEY ARE PROPOSING PROHIBITED USES WITHIN THIS PLANNED DEVELOPMENT.

A NUMBER OF THOSE. I'D BE HAPPY TO, TO GO THROUGH THEM, BUT THERE'S QUITE A FEW THERE, SO I FIGURED I'D LET YOU GUYS JUST TAKE A QUICK PEEK.

WE DID SEND NOTICES TO ALL PROPERTY OWNERS WITHIN 300FT OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY.

LOCATION AND IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND RECOMMENDS APPROVAL.

I DID PLACE THE EMPLOYMENT GROWTH CENTER PORTION OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ON YOUR SCREEN THERE FOR YOU TO KIND OF GET AN IDEA OF WHAT THE EMPLOYMENT GROWTH CENTER IS TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH.

AND I'D BE HAPPY TO ENTERTAIN ANY QUESTIONS THAT THE COMMISSION MAY HAVE.

AND I BELIEVE THE APPLICANT IS ALSO IN THE AUDIENCE TO ANSWER ANY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS.

I HAVE A QUESTION YOU KNOW. WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY. NO, MA'AM.

MA'AM. OKAY. THIS IS A PUBLIC HEARING. PUBLIC HEARING.

AND I'LL OPEN PUBLIC HEARING AT 6:06 AND ASK IF ANYONE IN THE AUDIENCE OR ON THE COMMISSION WANTS TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS.

I DO HAVE SOME CARDS. OKAY. I HAVE A PRETTY SIMPLE QUESTION.

IT LOOKS LIKE FROM THE DRAWING THAT THE PLAN WAS FOR THERE TO BE TWO EGRESS OR IN AND OUT OF THIS AREA FROM THE SERVICE ROAD. YES, MA'AM. DOES THAT SOUND RIGHT? YES, MA'AM. OKAY. THAT'S ON THEIR CONCEPT SITE PLAN.

OKAY. OKAY. I HAVE A CARD HERE FROM CHRIS REED.

HELLO OKAY. HELLO. I'M CHRIS REED. I LIVE AT 6825 COUNTY ROAD 518, WHICH IS THE SPOT THAT'S SURROUNDING COMPLETELY SURROUNDING RIGHT THERE.

THIS IS MY WIFE. WE'VE LIVED THERE FOR 25 YEARS.

WE'VE BUILT A HOME THERE. I PLAN ON RETIRING IN A COUPLE YEARS AT THAT HOME RIGHT THERE.

I'VE GOT SOME PICTURES THAT I WOULD LIKE TO PUT ON THERE THAT SHOW HOW CLOSE THIS PROPERTY IS.

I MEAN, YOU CAN PRETTY MUCH SEE HOW CLOSE IT IS, BUT MY BACK FENCE IS WHERE THEY'RE PLANNING ON.

WE'VE ACTUALLY SEEN THEY DIDN'T SHOW Y'ALL ANY OF WHERE THESE BUILDINGS ARE GOING.

WE'VE SEEN THAT BECAUSE I HAVE AN ATTORNEY THAT'S ALREADY TALKED TO THE DEVELOPER AND THEY'RE SHOWING US WHERE THESE BUILDINGS ARE GOING. WHAT I DON'T UNDERSTAND IS HOW THEY CAN COME UP HERE AND JUST SAY, Y'ALL LOOK OVER THIS AND NOT SHOW Y'ALL WHAT'S ACTUALLY HAPPENING, AND Y'ALL ARE GOING TO VOTE BASED OFF OF SOMETHING SIMPLE THAT YOU'RE NOT EVEN YOU DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO LOOK AT OR ANYTHING.

THIS. THEY'RE PROPOSING A DISTRIBUTION WAREHOUSE.

TWO BUILDINGS, ONE 200,000 SQUARE FOOT. ONE OF THEM 300,000 SQUARE FOOT.

THEY'RE LOADING DOCKS ARE GOING TO BE SITTING ON MY BACK FENCE RIGHT THERE, WHERE 18 WHEELERS ARE GOING TO BE COMING THROUGH THE NIGHT, 24/7 TO THIS TO THESE DISTRIBUTION CENTERS. 18 WHEELERS HAVE AIR HORNS ON THEM.

MY QUESTION IS, HOW IS THE CITY OF BURLESON GOING TO PREVENT THESE DISTRIBUTION CENTERS FROM CREATING A NUISANCE ON MY HOME? THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO KNOW. I WANT TO KNOW IN DETAIL, NOT JUST SOMEBODY SETTING UP A PIECE OF PAPER UP HERE GOING, Y'ALL, Y'ALL TAKE A LOOK AT THIS, BUT I NEED A VOTE TONIGHT.

I WANT TO KNOW HOW THEY'RE GOING TO PREVENT A NUISANCE THAT'S GOING TO BE CREATED BY TWO DISTRIBUTION WAREHOUSE CENTERS, 18 WHEELERS COMING IN ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'VE EVER HEARD AN AIR HORN ON AN 18 WHEELER.

BUT YOU'RE TELLING ME ALL THROUGH THE DAY AND NIGHT THAT THAT 18 WHEELERS DON'T HIT THEIR AIR HORNS TO TELL THEIR BUDDY, HEY, PULL UP! GET OUT OF MY WAY! BUMP, BUMP, BUMP. HITTING AIR HORNS. WHAT ABOUT EVERY TIME THEY BACK UP TO A LOADING DOCK, THEIR BACK UP BEEPERS? IT'S A, IT'S A LAW THAT THEY GOT TO HAVE BACKUP BEEPERS TO BACK UP TO THESE LOADING DOCKS.

EVERY TIME AN 18 WHEELER IS BACKING UP, THAT'S AT MY HOUSE THAT I'M HEARING BACKUP BEEPERS AT MY HOUSE, AT MY HOME WHERE I LIVE, AND NOT JUST DURING BUSINESS HOURS ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT.

THIS IS A 24 HOUR DISTRIBUTION CENTER. WHAT ABOUT WHEN THESE WHEN THESE 18 WHEELERS ARE HITTING THEIR AIR BRAKES, LETTING THE AIR OUT OF THEIR OUT OF THEIR OUT OF THEIR TANKS? YOU'RE TELLING ME YOU CAN'T HEAR THAT? I GUARANTEE IT, HALF OF Y'ALL ON HERE DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THAT SOUNDS LIKE. I DO, I WORK IN THAT INDUSTRY WHERE I KNOW WHAT THEY SOUND LIKE. I LIVE HERE, I LIVE AT THIS HOME.

WHAT ABOUT THE BUILDINGS THAT THEY'RE GOING TO BUILD THAT'S GOING TO HAVE LIGHTS ALL OVER THEIR FACILITY SHINING ON MY PROPERTY ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT.

NOT. THERE'S NUMEROUS EVENTS THAT CREATE THAT ARE GOING TO BE CREATED BY THIS THAT CAUSE A NUISANCE ON MY HOME.

AND, AND I'M ASKING THE CITY, EVEN THOUGH THAT MY AREA IS NOT HIGHLIGHTED, I OWN HALF AN ACRE IN THE CITY LIMITS. AND IT'S RIGHT THERE IN THAT LITTLE SLIVER.

[00:10:02]

I'M A BURLESON CITY CITIZEN. HOW IS THE CITY OF BURLESON GOING TO PROTECT AND PREVENT THIS NUISANCE THAT'S CREATED ON MY HOME IS WHAT. IS WHAT I'M ASKING. AND I PERSONALLY DON'T FEEL LIKE ANY OF Y'ALL CAN ANSWER THAT RIGHT NOW, BECAUSE Y'ALL DON'T EVEN KNOW BECAUSE HE SET A PIECE OF PAPER UP THERE THAT JUST SAID, Y'ALL TAKE A LOOK AT THIS.

THERE'S A LOT OF STUFF THAT'S GOING ON HERE. AND YOU GOT TO ASK YOURSELF, AND I'VE SAID THIS, I'VE BEEN HERE BEFORE, BEEN HERE SEVERAL TIMES ACTUALLY.

YOU'VE GOT TO ASK YOURSELF IF THIS WAS YOUR HOME, WOULD YOU WANT THIS GOING NEXT TO YOUR HOME? AND NONE OF Y'ALL WOULD DO IT. I'M TELLING YOU, THERE'S NOT ONE OF Y'ALL ON THIS COUNCIL THAT WOULD THAT WOULD SAY, YEAH, THAT'S FINE. GO AHEAD AND DO IT. I'LL PROVE IT. BECAUSE YOU DON'T LIVE THERE, I LIVE THERE, IT'S MY HOME. IT'S WHERE I COME HOME FROM WORK.

JUST LIKE WHEN Y'ALL GET OFF WORK AND Y'ALL GO HOME AND YOU GET PEACE.

THAT'S WHERE I GET PEACE. HOW CAN YOU GET PEACE WHEN THERE'S 18 WHEELERS RUNNING ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT MAKING NOISE? HOW CAN YOU GET PEACE? YOU CAN'T. THIS IS CREATING A MAJOR NUISANCE ON MY HOME.

AND THERE'S NOT ONE PERSON UP HERE THAT CAN SAY THAT IT'S NOT GOING TO.

SO THE CITY IS GOING TO HAVE TO COME UP WITH A PLAN IN ORDER TO PREVENT IT FROM CREATING, CREATING A NUISANCE.

I'M NOT SAYING THAT THEY CAN'T DO WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO DO. THEY JUST CAN'T CREATE A NUISANCE ON MY HOME.

SO WHETHER THEY PRESENT THE BUILDINGS FACING LEFT, RIGHT, LOADING DOCKS, WHATEVER THEY GOT TO DO, IT CAN'T CREATE A NUISANCE ON MY HOME. AND I'M UP HERE JUST TO LET Y'ALL KNOW THAT I'M UP HERE FIGHTING FOR MY HOME.

SO I GOT TWO PICTURES I'D LIKE TO SHOW. CAN I USE THAT DEAL? NO, SIR ONCE YOU HAND THEM TO US, WE HAVE TO KEEP THEM. WE DON'T HAVE A WAY TO DISPLAY THEM THANK YOU. OH.

SO ONE OF THOSE PICTURES IS A PICTURE OF MY PROPERTY AND HOW CLOSE IT SITS TO THIS FENCE TO WHERE THESE LOADING DOCKS.

AND LIKE I SAID, THEY CAME OUT TO OUR HOUSE, A DEVELOPER DID AND SHOWED US PICTURES OF THESE, OF THESE DISTRIBUTION CENTERS AND WHERE THESE LOADING DOCKS ARE GOING TO BE, AND THEY'RE GOING TO BE RIGHT ON THIS BACK FENCE. ANOTHER PICTURE IS JUST MY SWIMMING POOL, SHOWING THAT BACK FENCE TO WHERE 18 WHEELERS ARE GOING TO BE RIGHT THERE IN MY BACKYARD WHEN THEY BUILD THIS.

SO I JUST WANTED TO BRING THOSE. I DON'T HAVE A WHOLE LOT TO DISPLAY.

OF COURSE, HE DIDN'T HAVE A WHOLE LOT TO DISPLAY EITHER, BUT I WANTED TO SHOW BASICALLY MY CONCERN OF WHERE THIS IS GOING.

AND REMEMBER, IF THIS WAS YOUR HOME, I KNOW Y'ALL. Y'ALL HAVE A JOB TO DO, BUT YOU GOT TO THINK LIKE, I DON'T SEE ANY OF THESE GOING NEXT TO YOUR HOME. I DON'T SEE ANY OF THIS STUFF.

AND I KEEP UP WITH WHAT'S GOING ON IN BURLESON.

AND I DON'T SEE ANY OF THIS STUFF BEING PASSED AND PUSHED THROUGH NEXT TO YOUR HOME.

IT'S JUST, I DON'T KNOW, IT'S JUST IT'S CRAZY TO ME THAT SOMEONE CAN SAY IT'S OKAY TO INFLICT A NUISANCE ON SOMEBODY'S HOME WHERE THEY LIVE.

AND IT'S, IT'S JUST NOT RIGHT. BUT THAT'S PRETTY MUCH ALL I GOT TO SAY.

I'M JUST TRYING TO. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IN THE FUTURE OF WHAT'S GOING ON, IS THE CITY GOING TO CORRESPOND TO ME? SINCE Y'ALL SENT OUT A LETTER LETTING ME KNOW TO COME UP HERE TONIGHT.

BUT I'VE BEEN HERE BEFORE IN THE PAST. ON THE SITUATION ACROSS THE STREET WITH LKQ AND THINGS BEHIND THE SCENE GET DONE AND I'M NOT NOTIFIED.

I'M NOT TOLD ABOUT ANYTHING. IF I WOULD HAVE KNOWN ALL THIS STUFF, IF IT WASN'T FOR THAT GUY COMING OUT TO OUR HOUSE AND SHOWING US WHAT THEY WERE PLANNING ON DOING, I WOULDN'T HAVE KNOWN THAT BECAUSE HE DIDN'T PRESENT IT.

SO I WOULD JUST LIKE TO KNOW, LIKE WHAT IN THE FUTURE, WHAT.

WHAT'S THE PLANS HERE? IS THIS DEVELOPER GOING TO TRY TO TRY TO REORGANIZE THESE BUILDINGS TO FACE A DIFFERENT WAY? WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN? AND WHEN YOU SAY YAY AND YOU PASS IT ON TO THE CITY COUNCIL, AND THEN THE CITY COUNCIL SAYS, YAY, AND THEY PASS IT. IT'S A DONE DEAL. IT'S THEN IT BECOMES A LEGAL ISSUE DOWN THE ROAD.

BUT, BUT AS FAR AS THAT GOES RIGHT THERE, LIKE Y'ALL NEED TO TAKE A CONSIDERATION OF PEOPLE THAT LIVE HERE.

SO I JUST WANTED TO SHOW Y'ALL THOSE PICTURES OF MY HOME AND WHERE I LIVE.

AND YOU CAN SEE BY THAT PICTURE RIGHT THERE, IT'S ALL AROUND ME.

AND IT'S, IT'S, IT'S NOT RIGHT THAT THEY'RE GOING TO BE DOING THIS WITH 18 WHEELERS COMING IN.

AND SO THAT'S ALL I GOT TO SAY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR. REED. OKAY. MY NEXT CARD IS FROM PEGGY ROSENAU. IS IT ROSENAU? AM I CLOSE? [LAUGHTER].

IT'S PEGGY ROSENAU. AND I WANT TO THANK MR. REED FOR SAYING ALL THE THINGS THAT HE DID.

[00:15:02]

BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE THE PLEASURE OF SOMEBODY COMING TO MY HOUSE TO GIVE ME ALL THAT INFORMATION.

I LIVE RIGHT DOWN THE ROAD FROM MR. REED. SO MY CONCERNS ARE LIKE HE SAID, THE NOISE.

WHAT'S IT GOING TO DO TO ME? HAVE ANY OF Y'ALL DRIVEN OUT THAT WAY? DO ANY OF Y'ALL KNOW WHERE IT'S AT? IT'S A VERY PRETTY LITTLE DRIVE.

MY CONCERN IS THE NOISE. WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO FOR THE WHAT I CONSIDER LIGHT NOISE FROM ALL THE LIGHTS THAT A BIG WAREHOUSE WILL NEED.

I HAD, I FIGURED IT WOULD PROBABLY BE A COUPLE OF WAREHOUSES.

I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT UNTIL MR. SANCHEZ PUT THAT BEAUTIFUL LITTLE PAPER WITH ALL THE LISTINGS OF WHAT MIGHT GO IN THERE.

AND I SEE DATA PROCESSING. YOU KNOW, HOW MUCH NOISE THAT MAKES? REALLY? SO NOBODY HAS SAID WHAT EXACTLY IS GOING TO GO IN THERE.

SO THOSE ARE MY CONCERNS. MY CONCERN ARE THE TRAFFIC.

THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO HAVE EMPLOYEES WHERE THOSE EMPLOYEES ARE GOING TO GO. THAT'S A SINGLE ONE LANE ROAD.

ARE ANY OF THE 18 WHEELERS GOING TO BE COMING DOWN THAT ROAD? YOU KNOW HOW FAST THEY WHIP IN AND OUT.

WHO'S GOING TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR WHEN SOMEBODY DIES ON THAT ROAD? I DON'T THINK ANYBODY'S EVER THOUGHT OF THAT. BUT THERE ARE 290 DEGREE CURVES RIGHT BEFORE YOU GET TO MY HOUSE.

I'M BACK BEFORE I'M STILL WITHIN THAT 300FT. WHAT ARE THEY GOING TO DO WITH THAT POND THAT'S ON THAT PIECE OF PROPERTY? THEY PLAN ON TAKING THE WATER OUT OF THAT? IS IT GOING TO BE TESTED BY TCQ.

CCEQ TO MAKE SURE IT'S NOT CONTAMINATED? BECAUSE IT GETS RUNOFF FROM LKQ RIGHT ACROSS THE ROAD THAT THE ENGINEERS SAID BEFORE.

WHEN THEY PUT THAT IN, OH, IT'S NO PROBLEM. REALLY? IS IT? HAS IT BEEN TESTED? BECAUSE I SEE A LOT OF.

AND THAT'S A LOT OF JUNK CARS BACK THERE. CAN'T TELL ME POISONS DON'T COME OFF THAT CAR, THOSE JUNK CARS.

SO I'D JUST LIKE FOR LIKE MR. REED SAID, WE LIVE THERE.

I MADE MY HOME THERE. WE LIVED THERE 20 YEARS.

HAS ANYBODY THOUGHT ABOUT ALL OF THE THINGS THAT WOULD AFFECT US IN THAT PIECE OF PROPERTY? THAT'S ALL I HAVE TO SAY. THANK YOU, MS. ROSENAU.

THE NEXT PERSON IS NATALIE REED. MS. REED. HI.

HOW ARE YOU? I'M THE WIFE OF CHRIS REED. AND AS YOU KNOW, THAT IS OUR ONE SOLE PROPERTY THAT WILL BE COMPLETELY ENGULFED WITH NUISANCE. I CALL IT THE NIGHTMARE. LIKE HE SAID, THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME WE HAVE LITERALLY.

I'M SORRY. THIS IS VERY EMOTIONAL [CRYING]. I HAVE RAISED MY CHILDREN IN THIS HOME.

MY GRANDCHILDREN ARE NOW ENJOYING OUR PROPERTY.

AND LIKE SHE HAD MENTIONED, I'M CONCERNED THAT.

IF YOU'VE EVER DRIVEN ON 917 BRIDGE COMING ACROSS.

IT'S A JOKE. YOU. I HAVE TO GO AROUND BETHESDA, EXIT ALL THE WAY AROUND A THREE-MILE RADIUS TO GET TO MY HOME FOR MY SANITY [LAUGHTER].

SO NOW WE'RE PUTTING A MULTI FUNCTIONED TWO MORE WAREHOUSES IN MY BACKYARD, AND NOW I FIGHT.

THEM COMING ON OUR ROADS, EMPLOYEES GOING DOWN THE ROAD THAT'S NEVER FIXED.

THEY BARELY TRIM TREES. IT'S. IT'S JUST NOT. I WISH WE COULD TAKE A FIELD TRIP, IS WHAT Y'ALL REALLY NEED TO START DOING BEFORE Y'ALL SIT BEHIND YOUR MICROPHONES AND.

SAY YAY OR NAY WHEN YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON BECAUSE IT DOESN'T AFFECT YOU AND IT'S A SLAP IN ALL OF OUR FACES.

IT'S DISGUSTING. WHEN HE FOR FIVE SECONDS PUT ON THE LIST, I WISH WE COULD HAVE A Y'ALL GET TO KEEP MY PAPER.

I WISH I COULD HAVE A PIECE OF PAPER THAT COULD HAVE SHOWN EVEN MORE OF A NIGHTMARE OF, LIKE SHE WAS SAYING, DATA CENTERS. ANY OF IT IS FOR US. I CAN ONLY SPEAK FOR MY BACKYARD, LITERALLY THAT FENCE LINE, AS Y'ALL WERE LOOKING AT, WE PLAY TEE-BALL. [LAUGHTER].

WE SET UP BASES. MY GRANDSON RUNS BASES OUT THERE.

WE PLAY VOLLEYBALL ON FAMILY GATHERINGS. I HAVE A SWIMMING POOL THAT YOU CAN SEE IS IT'S IN PULLIAM MAGAZINE [LAUGHTER].

THAT IS MY OASIS. THAT IS ALL WE HAVE WORKED FOR.

THAT'S ALL WE HAVE. MY HUSBAND WAS VERY EXCITED TO RETIRE IN TWO YEARS.

NOW HE WANTS TO TRY TO FIND SOMEWHERE WE HAVE, YOU KNOW, OUR SANCTION, OUR SANITY.

THIS IS MY HOME. I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE. I'M SURE THERE'S HOMES THAT I COULD GO MOVE INTO, AND I DON'T WANT TO.

[00:20:04]

I CHOSE THIS HOME AS A VERY YOUNG MOM, AND I'VE RAISED TWO BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN THERE.

AND THAT'S WHERE MY MEMORIES STAND IN THAT SOIL, IN THAT GROUND.

EVERYTHING HE HAS DONE, HE HAS BUILT BY HAND OUT THERE.

IT MEANS A LOT MORE THAN Y'ALL'S YAY OR NAY. I REALLY WISH Y'ALL COULD REALLY CONSIDER A NAY ON THIS.

IT'S. THEY CAN'T BE A GOOD NEIGHBOR. WE WERE TOLD, YOU KNOW, LKQ WAS GOING TO BE OUR GOOD.

THERE'S NO POSSIBLE WAY ANYONE BEHIND US COULD BE A GOOD NEIGHBOR.

IT'S TOO CLOSE. IT'S JUST I HAVE IT WILL BE LEFT WITH THREE WINDOWS THAT I WON'T SEE GRASS.

AND I'M NOT KIDDING. I WILL. Y'ALL ARE MORE THAN WELCOME TO MY HOME.

YOU HAVE MY ADDRESS, AND I'LL STAND YOU IN THE ONE BEDROOM THAT WILL BE FACING THAT TANK.

THAT WOULD BE THE ONLY GRASS I HAVE LEFT. MY BEDROOM WINDOWS FACE THE MONSTROSITY ACROSS THE STREET AND I HAVE FRENCH DOORS.

FRENCH WINDOWS THAT'S ALL OPEN TO MY OASIS IN THE BACKYARD THAT SHOT TO HELL.

SO THAT'S WHAT I WOULD REALLY LIKE FOR Y'ALL TO TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION.

IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT TAX MONEY FOR BURLESON. THERE'S PLENTY OF GRASS.

THERE'S LOOK AT 35. THERE'S A WHOLE INDUSTRIAL NEIGHBORHOOD.

YOU KNOW, THE WHOLE ACROSS THE WAY. GO LOOK THERE, PLEASE.

I MEAN, THIS ONE JUST CAN'T BE. YOU REALLY. IT CAN'T BE DONE.

I REALLY HOPE Y'ALL TAKE THAT INTO CONSIDERATION.

AND I'M SORRY I GOT UPSET, BUT THIS IS MY LIFE SO.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. THANK YOU, MS. REED.

DOES ANYBODY ELSE WISH TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM? IS THE APPLICANT HERE? DO THEY DESIRE TO SPEAK? IS THE APPLICANT HERE? YEAH. WE'RE HERE WOULD YOU LIKE TO ADDRESS ANY OF THE CONCERNS? WE MET WITH CHRIS AND THEN OR WE TRIED TO SIR, YOU'LL NEED TO COME.

HI, I'M DEAN FLOWERS. DOLLAR FLOWERS REALTY PARTNERS.

WE BUY LAND. THIS IS ONE OF THE THINGS WE DO.

WE WENT AND MET WITH CHRIS. WE MADE AN OFFER FOR HIS HOUSE AT ABOVE MARKET VALUE BY A LOT.

THEY COUNTERED US AT A PRICE THAT WAS A LITTLE BIT ABOVE WHAT WE THOUGHT WAS FAIR.

WE HAVE NOT DONE ANYTHING OTHER THAN SHOW. I DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS OTHER FAMILY, BUT WE DID COME OUT AND SEE THEM AND SAID, HERE'S WHAT WE'RE THINKING ABOUT DOING. I ABSOLUTELY UNDERSTAND THEIR FEELINGS, I.

WE HAD APPRAISERS OF THE. THEY HAVE THE HOUSE APPRAISED AND WE MADE AN OFFER OF TECHNICALLY TWICE WHAT THE VALUE OF THE HOUSE WAS AND GOT TURNED DOWN. NOR. WE HAD ONE RESPONSE FROM THEM FOR A LARGER AMOUNT OF MONEY AND WE'RE STILL THINKING ABOUT THAT.

WE HAVEN'T. YOU KNOW, WE DON'T HAVE ANYTHING BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE ANY ZONING.

WE DON'T HAVE ANYTHING OTHER THAN WHAT THE CITY HAS ASKED US TO DO.

SO WE. I'M WITH. I UNDERSTAND THEIR SITUATION.

THEY KIND OF GOT MESSED UP BY THE LPG OR WHATEVER IT IS NEXT DOOR ACROSS THE STREET FROM THEM.

OUR WAREHOUSES HAVE NOT BEEN. WE JUST SHOWED THEM A SITE PLAN THAT WE'RE PLANNING ON DOING, BUT WE DON'T KNOW IF WE'RE GOING TO DO THAT OR NOT. WE'RE A COUPLE OF YEARS AWAY. WE AGREED TO BUY THEIR HOUSE, PAY THEM A GREAT PRICE, LET THEM LIVE THERE FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS FREE.

WHICH IS NOT WHAT THEY WANT. AND I ABSOLUTELY GET THAT.

SO WE'RE JUST TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO WORK AROUND THEM AND WORK WITH THEM.

AND WE MET WITH THEM AND THEIR LAWYER AND KIND OF GOT NOT A WHOLE LOT OF RESPONSE BACK, WHICH IS UNDERSTANDABLE THAT THEY DON'T WANT ANYTHING TO HAPPEN.

AND THAT'S KIND OF LIFE IN THE REAL ESTATE BUSINESS.

YOU KNOW, IT'S GOING TO BE A GREAT THING FOR THE CITY AS FAR AS TAX REFUND.

THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE A DATA CENTER THERE. IT'S JUST GOING TO BE SOME WAREHOUSES.

THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE ANY, I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE NOISES, I DON'T KNOW, IT'S THE USER'S IDEA.

AND WE DON'T HAVE A USER, WE DON'T HAVE A PLAN.

WE HAVE A COUPLE PLANS ON WHAT WE WANT TO BUILD THERE, BUT IT'S YEARS OFF.

WE WOULD LOVE TO WORK SOMETHING OUT WITH THESE PEOPLE AROUND HERE, BUT I DID NOT.

I WAS NOT AWARE OF Y'ALL. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE'S Y'ALL'S HOME_ ON THE NORTHEAST CORNER I DON'T KNOW WHERE THAT IS. SO THAT'S WHERE WE STAND.

THAT'S WHERE WE WENT AND SAW. AND WE'RE NOT TRYING TO SHOVE ANYTHING DOWN ANYBODY'S THROAT.

THIS IS WHAT THE CITY WANTED. THIS IS WHAT THE MARKET KIND OF DEPENDS ON.

I THINK Y'ALL ARE WANTING TO HAVE AN INDUSTRIAL PARK IN THIS AREA.

[00:25:03]

YOU ALREADY HAVE THE CAR DEAL, WHICH IS KIND OF A MESS FOR THEM, AND I UNDERSTAND THAT.

SO THAT'S WHO WE ARE, THAT WE'RE NOT TRYING TO DO ANYTHING OTHER THAN TRY TO MAKE IT WORK FOR EVERYBODY.

AND I DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET THERE. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU.

SO A COUPLE QUESTIONS. ONE QUESTION WAS, HOW COME THAT WASN'T PRESENTED WHILE AGO TO THE TO YOU ALL? SO IT WAS IN THEIR PACKET. OKAY. SO Y'ALL KNEW THAT THERE WAS TWO BUILDINGS GOING IN THERE.

OKAY. WELL, YOU CAN SEE MY HOUSE AND YOU CAN SEE THAT LOADING DOCK RIGHT THERE.

JUST KIND OF WANTED TO. CURIOUS ABOUT THAT, BUT WHAT HE JUST SAID, I HAVEN'T RECEIVED ANY OFFERS WHATSOEVER.

SO HE'S UP HERE ACTING, YOU KNOW, LETTING Y'ALL KNOW THAT WE'VE OFFERED A COUPLE PRICES.

HE DIDN'T OFFER THEM TO ME. I DON'T KNOW WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT. HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING ABOUT HIM BUYING MY PLACE.

NOTHING. OKAY. LAWYER WELL, THEN YOU NEED TO GET I NEVER DECLINED ANYTHING. I NEVER RECEIVED ANYTHING. SO I JUST WANTED TO MAKE. JUST SAY THAT.

SO, MR. CHAIRMAN, AGAIN. EMILIO SANCHEZ DEVELOPMENT SERVICES.

I DID GO AHEAD AND PUT THE SITE PLAN ON THE SCREEN FOR THE FOLKS IN THE AUDIENCE, BUT IT WAS PREPARED IN YOUR PACKET.

I ALSO WANTED TO ADDRESS THE NOISE ISSUES AND THINGS IN THE INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT.

WE DO HAVE ORDINANCES ON THE BOOKS FOR THE INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT THAT THEY HAVE TO ABIDE BY NOISE FREQUENCIES.

ALL OF THE THINGS THAT THEY DISCUSSED ARE COVERED IN THE ORDINANCE FOR INDUSTRIAL DISTRICTS, AND THEY WOULD BE OBLIGED TO BE REQUIRED TO CONFORM TO THOSE REQUIREMENTS, OR THEY WOULD BE IN VIOLATION OF THE ZONING ORDINANCE. AND I WOULD BE HAPPY TO GIVE YOU THOSE IF YOU'D LIKE.

MAY I INTERRUPT? SORRY. MR. TAYLOR. MR. CHAIR, I'M OVER HERE [LAUGHTER].

EMILIO, JUST A COUPLE POINTS OF CLARIFICATION.

YOU MAY HAVE SAID THIS, AND YOU PROBABLY DID.

I JUST FORGOT THAT THE DEFAULT ZONING ON THIS PROPERTY IS OR EXCUSE ME, NOT THE DEFAULT.

THE ZONING ON THIS PROPERTY IS IT'S CURRENTLY AG, IS IT DEFAULT AG? IT'S DEFAULT AG FROM WHEN IT WAS ANNEXED INTO THE CITY.

YES. OKAY. SO IT'S NEVER BEEN ASSIGNED. THAT IS CORRECT.

ZONING CATEGORY. OKAY. ALSO, I KNOW THERE'S BEEN SOME DISCUSSION REGARDING THE LIST THAT WAS PUT UP.

WERE THOSE PERMITTED USES OR USES THAT ARE NOT PERMITTED IN THE PROPOSED PLANNED DEVELOPMENT ZONING? THESE ARE PROPOSED USES THAT ARE IN ADDITION TO THE INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT.

OKAY. DATA PROCESSING, HOSTING OR RELATED. IS NOT A DATA CENTER.

AND WE HAVE A SPECIAL ZONING DISTRICT FOR DATA CENTERS WITHIN THE CITY OF BURLESON.

SO THAT IS NOT A DATA CENTER, NOR WOULD WE ALLOW THAT WITH THIS PLANNED DEVELOPMENT.

OKAY. THEN THE SLIDE THAT FOLLOWED THIS ONE, THAT WAS THE PROHIBITED USES.

CORRECT. OKAY. YES, SIR. THANK YOU SIR. CAN I ASK A QUESTION? I'M CONCERNED ABOUT THE INFRASTRUCTURE OF THE ROADS.

AND THE, THE 90 DEGREE TURNS THAT, THAT YOU MENTIONED, THE NARROW ROADS.

AND THE NIGHT TRAFFIC THAT WOULD. I'M JUST WONDERING ABOUT THE SUPPORT THAT WILL THE ROADS HOLD THE TRAFFIC AND SAFELY.

SO THE DEVELOPER IS IN THE ENTITLEMENT PHASE.

SO THIS IS JUST THE ZONING SECTION. SO ONCE IF THE ZONING IS APPROVED, THEY'LL STILL BE REQUIRED TO TURN IN ALL OF THE CIVIL PLANS FOR THE SITE, INCLUDING A TRANSPORTATION IMPACT ANALYSIS WHERE OUR CITY ENGINEER WILL REVIEW.

BUT THEY ARE PROPOSING ALL OF THEIR TRAFFIC ON AND OFF OF THE I-35 FEEDER ROAD.

NOW, I'M NOT GOING TO SAY THAT THERE WON'T BE TRAFFIC THAT GOES DOWN THE COUNTY ROAD, BUT THEIR TRANSPORTATION IMPACT ANALYSIS WILL DETERMINE WHAT WIDENING OR TURN LANES WOULD BE REQUIRED FOR THEIR BUSINESS.

AND IS THERE A SPECIAL REASON WHY THIS PROPERTY IS ATTRACTIVE FOR INDUSTRIAL WITH OTHER OPTIONS? IT'S LOCATION TO OUR EXISTING BUSINESS PARK. BOTH THE WEST AND EAST SIDE.

OKAY, THANKS.

I'D LIKE TO JUST SAY SOMETHING. I APPRECIATE YOU COMING BEFORE US AND SHARING YOUR CONCERNS.

[00:30:04]

WE DO WANT TO KNOW. AND WE DO CARE WHETHER WE CAN SPECIFICALLY CHANGE OR CHANGE A DIRECTION.

YOU KNOW, IS NOT ALWAYS NECESSARILY SOMETHING THAT'S IN OUR HANDS BECAUSE OF THE CITY'S LONG-RANGE PLANS.

BUT WE DO GET OUR INFORMATION TEN DAYS AHEAD OF TIME.

WE, I'VE LOOKED IT OVER VERY CLOSELY. I USUALLY TRY TO MAKE A SITE VISIT.

IN THIS PARTICULAR CASE, I DID NOT COME BY YOUR SITE, SO I YOU CAUGHT ME ON THAT ONE.

SORRY ABOUT THAT. BUT WE DO TRY TO REALLY WEIGH, YOU KNOW, WHAT THE BUILDERS NEED, WHAT THE CITY NEEDS AND WHAT THE CITIZENS NEED.

AND WE DO CARE. SO IT'S NOT THAT WE DON'T CARE AT ALL.

AND WE WANT TO MAKE A GOOD DECISION. SO I JUST WANT TO THANK YOU FOR MAKING THE EFFORT TO COME AND SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS WITH US.

WHENEVER I FIRST SAW WHEN THIS AGENDA WAS POSTED AND I LOOKED AT THIS, I IMMEDIATELY HATED HOW BIG THIS WAREHOUSE WAS, ESPECIALLY WITH HOW CLOSE PROXIMITY LIKE CONCRETE IS NEAR TOUCHING THEIR PROPERTY LINE.

AND I UNDERSTAND THAT 35 IS GOING TO BE EXPANDED EVENTUALLY.

WE KNOW I-35 CONSTRUCTION, WE DON'T KNOW WHEN THAT'S ACTUALLY GOING TO HAPPEN.

BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY, IT'S JUST. IT IS TOO BIG FOR WHAT IS AROUND.

AND I THINK IF, IF I'M GOING TO BE COMPLETELY HONEST, I FEEL LIKE THEY WOULD HAVE PUT MORE THERE IF THERE WASN'T THAT BIG POND AND THAT GAS WELL. I THINK THEY PROBABLY WOULD HAVE MADE IT BIGGER, BUT I, I LOOKED AT THIS AND [LAUGHTER] IT'S AN ONGOING JOKE FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THE CITY OF LIKE, OH, ANOTHER WAREHOUSE GOING ON ON 35.

WE HAVE SO MANY EMPTY WAREHOUSES. YES, THEY'RE NOT IN BURLESON, BUT WE HAVE EMPTY ONES JUST RIGHT UP THE ROAD ON NORTH OF 35.

SO WE'RE GOING TO ADD MORE THAT MAY OR MAY NOT BE FILLED.

WE CAN'T. TO ME, I DON'T LIKE IT. THAT'S THAT'S ALL I'M GOING TO SAY [LAUGHTER].

CRAZY THE SITE PLAN FOR THIS BUSINESS. WE'RE JUST SIMPLY DECIDING WHETHER WE'RE GOING TO SHIFT FROM AGRICULTURAL TO PLANNED DEVELOPMENT.

THAT THAT'S THE ISSUE BEFORE US TODAY. WHETHER WE VOTE YES AND GO FORWARD ON THIS TODAY OR NOT, IT'S VERY POSSIBLE THIS ISSUE WILL COME UP AGAIN BECAUSE THIS IS AN AREA OF THE CITY IS DESIGNATED FOR BUSINESSES.

SO THAT'S I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT BEFORE I, BEFORE I VOTE.

MR. TAYLOR IF I CAN I'M SORRY. I DIDN'T MEAN TO.

I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THE PUBLIC HEARING IS STILL OPEN.

SO BEFORE WE TAKE A VOTE, WE'LL NEED TO MAKE SURE AND CALL EVERYONE ELSE UP WHO DESIRES TO SPEAK.

NO, NO. YOU'RE GOOD. I JUST THIS IS ALL GOOD.

ANYBODY ELSE WISH TO. YEAH. JUST A QUICK QUESTION FOR STAFF.

WHERE IS THIS IN THE CITY LIMITS AS FAR AS THE EJT VERSUS CITY LIMITS? IS THERE A DIFFERENTIATION HERE? I'M NOT SURE I UNDERSTAND THE QUESTION.

THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS LOCATED WITHIN THE CITY LIMITS.

MR. REED'S PROPERTY IS LOCATED IN THE ETJ. OKAY.

THAT'S WHAT I WANTED TO KNOW. IF YOU'LL NOTICE ON THAT SITE PLAN.

THERE'S A DESIGNATION BETWEEN THE CITY OF BURLESON AND ITS ETJ.

THAT LINE.

OKAY. ANYONE ELSE? OKAY, I'M GOING TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AT 6:34 P.M.

AND.

ANY MORE QUESTIONS? I'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION. BEFORE WE DO A MOTION, I'D JUST ASK A QUESTION OF LEGAL. CAN WE TABLE THIS WITH THE UNDERSTANDING IN THE MISCOMMUNICATION THAT SEEMS TO HAVE GONE ON BETWEEN THE LAWYER AND THE RESIDENT AND SO THEY GO BACK AND TRY AND WORK IT OUT.

OR IS THAT OFF THE TABLE? WELL, I WANT TO SAY, I THINK THAT THIS REALLY DOESN'T HAVE MUCH TO DO WITH THE APPLICATION THAT'S PENDING

[00:35:07]

BEFORE THIS COMMISSION. WHAT'S HAPPENING THERE BETWEEN THEIR LAWYERS AND EVERYTHING, THAT'S NOT SPECIFICALLY TO DO WITH THE APPLICATION THAT'S PENDING BEFORE THE COMMISSION, AS I UNDERSTAND IT.

I'D MOTION TO DENY CASE 26-003. I WILL SECOND.

OKAY. I HAVE A MOTION BY MICHAEL AND A SECOND BY ASHLEY.

ALL THOSE IN FAVOR? IT'S TWO THREE, SIX IT'S 7 TO 1 THANK YOU

THE MAJORITY OF THE PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY ZONED AGRICULTURAL, WHICH IS ITS DEFAULT ZONING FROM WHEN IT WAS ANNEXED INTO THE CITY.

THE SCREEN RIGHT, SHOWS THE COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE MAP DESIGNATION DESIGNATING THIS AREA AS NEIGHBORHOODS.

SO AS PART OF THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT PORTION THREE CITIES ARE ALLOWED WITHIN THE CITY TO PROMOTE SUCH DEVELOPMENT.

THE BUSINESS PARK IS TARGETING NATIONAL RETAIL, REGIONAL HEADQUARTERS AND INDUSTRIES SUCH AS OFFICE PROFESSIONALS.

THE MF2 DESIGNATION FOR ZONING WOULD HELP PROVIDE ADDITIONAL HOUSING FOR THOSE PROPERTY OWNERS.

I FAILED TO MENTION. THAT THE EDC IS NOT DEVELOPING THIS AS A MULTIPLE-FAMILY.

THEY ARE GOING TO DO A LAND SWAP IF THE ZONING IS APPROVED WITH THE PROPERTY OWNERS, WHERE THAT BLUE PORTION WILL BE SWAPPED WITH THE CURRENT OWNERS FOR A PORTION IN THE REAR.

IT'S APPROXIMATELY THE SAME ACREAGE THAT THE EDC WILL OBTAIN AT THAT POINT.

SO THE DEVELOPERS FOR THE MULTIPLE-FAMILY ARE PURSUING THIS.

IT'S NOT THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION OF BURLESON, BUT THEY ARE IN SUPPORT OF THE ZONING CHANGE.

OKAY. SO THAT IF THIS ZONING CHANGE IS APPROVED, THE 4A WILL TAKE ON A I BELIEVE IT'S A ACTION ITEM TO ALLOW FOR A LAND SWAP TO OCCUR.

AFTER THE ZONING HAS BEEN APPROVED. SO ONCE THE ZONING DESIGNATION IS APPROVED, THIS.

THIS BLUE TRIANGLE WILL SWAP OWNERSHIP TO.

[00:40:06]

YES. TO THE MPC18 LLC OWNER AND BURLESON DEVELOPMENT, INC.

AND WHERE WILL THAT SWAP BE? THAT SWAP WILL OCCUR.

THIS LOCATION HERE. WILL BE TRANSFERRED TO THE 4A ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION.

OKAY. I DID NOT HIGHLIGHT IT BECAUSE IT'S NOT A PART OF YOUR ACTION TONIGHT, BUT I DID WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE AWARE THAT THAT IS WHAT IS GOING TO OCCUR IF THIS ZONING REQUEST IS APPROVED BY COUNCIL. OKAY. JUST TO MAKE SURE I UNDERSTAND WHERE THIS IS.

THIS IS BASICALLY ACROSS THE STREET FROM WHERE THE CRAFTMASTER PLACE IS GOING IN.

THAT IS CORRECT. AND NEXT DOOR TO THE RETENTION POND.

THAT IS CORRECT. OKAY. SO JUST TO CONTINUE ON, WE DID SEND PUBLIC NOTICES TO ALL PROPERTY OWNERS WITHIN 300FT. WE ALSO PUBLISHED THE REQUEST IN THE NEWSPAPER AND POSTED A SIGN ON THE PROPERTY.

WE HAVE NOT HAD ANY OPPOSITION OR SUPPORT IN PHONE CALLS OR LETTERS SENT TO THE CITY.

STAFF RECOMMENDS. HAS DETERMINED THAT THE REQUESTED ZONING DISTRICT OF MF2 IS APPROPRIATE FOR THIS LOCATION AND WOULD FIT IN LINE WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. I ALSO PLACED THAT NEIGHBORHOOD'S PORTION OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ON THIS SLIDE FOR YOUR REVIEW.

AND STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL OF AN ORDINANCE TO CHANGE THAT REQUESTED ZONING, AND I WOULD BE HAPPY TO ENTERTAIN ANY QUESTIONS AT THIS TIME.

AND THE OWNERS ARE ALSO. AND THE DEVELOPERS ARE ALSO IN THE AUDIENCE TO ANSWER ANY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE.

I HAVE A QUESTION. DOES THE CITY DO A NEEDS ASSESSMENT FOR MULTIPLE-FAMILY HOUSING? I MEAN, I MEAN, BACK TO, OH, WE CAN HAVE EMPTY WAREHOUSES THAT WE'RE NOT USING.

I MEAN, DO WE HAVE HOUSING A NEED FOR MULTIPLE-FAMILY HOUSING IN BURLESON? SO OUR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT TEAM HAS THAT INFORMATION, BUT WE DO PUT TOGETHER STUDIES THAT INDICATE WHAT TYPES OF HOUSING WOULD BE NEEDED FOR THE INDUSTRIES THAT THEY'RE ACTUALLY LOOKING TO ATTRACT.

AND AGAIN, SINCE BUSINESS HOOPER PARK IS ADJACENT TO THIS STAFF HAS DETERMINED THAT THE REQUESTED MULTIPLE-FAMILY WOULD FIT IN WITH THAT REQUESTED ZONING CHANGE. SO BUT WHAT THE CITY DOES OFFER THOSE STUDIES PRIOR TO REACHING OUT TO DEVELOPERS FOR CERTAIN PROJECTS.

AND DO WE HAVE THE, WELL, BACK TO INFRASTRUCTURE SCHOOLS AND THINGS THAT ARE.

THAT COULD ACCOMMODATE MULTIPLE-FAMILY HOUSING.

SO AGAIN, THIS IS ADJACENT TO THE CHISHOLM SUMMIT MASTER PLAN COMMUNITY.

AND THERE ARE SCHOOLS CONTEMPLATED IN THAT DEVELOPMENT.

IN JOSHUA THAT WOULD IS? I BELIEVE THAT IS JOSHUA ISD.

YEAH. OKAY. THANKS. THIS IS A PUBLIC HEARING, AND I'LL OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING AT 6:43 P.M.

AND ASK IF ANYONE IN THE AUDIENCE OR ON THE COMMISSION HAS.

I DO HAVE ONE CARD FROM MR. BOND. I. IS THAT JUST TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT SOMEONE MIGHT HAVE? OKAY. ANYONE IN THE AUDIENCE? QUESTIONS? OKAY. I DON'T SEE ANY MOTION, SO I'LL.

OR ANY MOVEMENT. SO I'LL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AT 6:43.

06:44 P.M. ENTERTAIN A MOTION. MOTION TO APPROVE ZC26-005.

SECOND. OKAY, I HAVE A MOTION BY CLINT. IS THAT DAVID? AND A SECOND BY DAVID. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR? OPPOSED? MOTION PASSES. 7 TO 1. OR 7 TO 0. SORRY. EIGHT 8 TO 0. OKAY. THANK YOU, PEGGY. [LAUGHTER]. OKAY.

[4.C. Hold a public hearing and consider and take possible action on an ordinance amending the Comprehensive Plan 2020 Midpoint Update. (Staff Contact: Tony D. McIlwain, Development Services Director)]

HOLD A HEARING AND CONSIDER AND TAKE POSSIBLE ACTION ON AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN 2020 MIDPOINT UPDATE.

AND OUR PRESENTER IS TONY MCILWAIN. GOOD EVENING COMMISSIONERS.

THIS ITEM SHOULD BE FAIRLY FAMILIAR TO YOU ALL.

[00:45:03]

IT'S A PRESENTATION THAT WE DID DURING OUR PREVIOUS JOINT CITY COUNCIL PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING.

BUT TONIGHT I'M BRINGING IT FORWARD TO YOU FOR YOUR OFFICIAL RECOMMENDATION FOR THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN 2020 UPDATE.

JUST GOING TO RUN THROUGH SOME INFORMATION YOU ALL HAVE SEEN. BUT FOR THE PUBLIC, IT'S OBVIOUSLY MAY BE NEW, BUT THE PURPOSE IS TO HAVE A PUBLIC HEARING AND GET FEEDBACK REGARDING THE AMENDMENTS TO THE 2020 MIDPOINT UPDATE.

WE HAVE DISCUSSED THIS OVER MULTIPLE MEETINGS GOING BACK TO FEBRUARY BEFORE THE INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE.

THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION GOT A BRIEFING BACK IN FEBRUARY AS WELL.

CITY COUNCIL GOT A BRIEFING IN MARCH, AND THEN OUR JOINT MEETING IN APRIL, WHERE YOUR BODY AND THE COUNCIL CAME TO SOME CONSENSUS ON SOME OF THE CHANGES AND UPDATES THAT YOU WANTED TO SEE IN THE PLAN. WE'VE GOT SIX PROPOSED AMENDMENTS, AND I'VE KIND OF ENCAPSULATED THOSE IN THESE NEXT TWO SLIDES, BUT ONE IS TO AMEND THE REGIONAL OFFICE COMMERCIAL FUTURE LAND USE CATEGORY.

THIS IS TO ALLOW APARTMENT COMPLEXES WHICH ARE ALREADY ALLOWED PER OUR CODE OF ORDINANCES.

BUT IT WAS SILENT IN OUR MASTER PLAN DOCUMENT WHERE ADEQUATE INFRASTRUCTURE CONNECTIVITY EXISTS.

OBVIOUSLY, A RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPER IS NOT GOING TO PUT A COMPLEX WHERE THEY DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO INFRASTRUCTURE, BUT ALONG THE I-35 CORRIDOR, THEY WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR EXTENDING WATER AND WASTEWATER SERVICES AND MEETING THE CONCLUSIONS OF A TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS. AS YOU MAY RECALL, THE CHISHOLM TRAIL CORRIDOR WAS BEING EXPLORED TO CONTEMPLATE MEDIUM TO HIGH DENSITY RESIDENTIAL USE AS PART OF MIXED USE DEVELOPMENTS.

WE WANTED TO OPEN UP THAT CORRIDOR FOR A LOT OF INTEREST THAT WE'RE SEEING FROM THE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY AND OUR TRANSIT-ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT.

WE'RE LOOKING AT REDESIGNATING THAT AREA TO COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL ALONG ALSBURY AND SOUTHWEST HULEN AND ALLOW FOR MIXED USE FOR THE REMAINING AREAS.

I DO HAVE SOME SLIDES THAT'LL SHOW YOU GRAPHICALLY WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT AS WELL.

EMPLOYMENT GROWTH CENTER. THAT'S THE AREA ALONG I-35 AS YOU'RE HEADING SOUTH OUTSIDE THE CITY.

YOU KNOW, WE HAD A PREVIOUS ZONING CASE WHERE WE HAD A PROPOSAL AND EMPLOYMENT GROWTH CENTER.

WE'RE LOOKING TO INCORPORATE HEAVY AND HIGH ENERGY INDUSTRIAL USES.

SO WHEN WE TALK ABOUT DATA CENTERS, THIS IS WHERE THEY WOULD GO.

BUT AS YOU ALL KNOW, THERE'S NO PROPERTY CURRENTLY ZONED FOR DATA CENTERS.

THEY WOULD HAVE TO COME AND REQUEST THAT IF THERE'S AN INTERESTED PARTY.

THERE'S AN ADDENDUM, WHICH IS ESSENTIALLY OUR WAY OF CATALOGING THINGS THAT WE'VE GOTTEN APPROVED OR ACHIEVED ON THE PLAN.

AND THE STATE LAW A FEW YEARS AGO HAS A REQUIREMENT FOR FUTURE LAND USE MAPS TO CONTAIN THE NOTATION THAT YOU HAVE ON THE SCREEN.

BASICALLY, IT'S TO MAKE SURE THAT THE RESIDENTS.

CITIZENS UNDERSTAND THAT THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP IS NOT ZONING.

IT'S JUST A LAND USE DESIGNATION THAT HELPS FRAME ZONING DECISIONS THAT YOU ALL HAVE TO MAKE RECOMMENDATIONS ON AND CITY COUNCIL HAS TO CONSIDER.

SO THIS IS WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT IN TERMS OF THE TEXT TO THE ACTUAL DOCUMENT ITSELF.

WE'RE REMOVING OR AT LEAST PROPOSING TO REMOVE THE STRIKETHROUGH TEXT AND REPLACE IT WITH THE TEXT THAT YOU SEE IN GREEN.

AND THEN THERE'S THAT LITTLE AREA AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN WHERE WE HAVE CORRESPONDING ZONING DISTRICTS.

SO IF YOU EVER GO THROUGH OUR PLAN, IT'S KIND OF A LITTLE CHEAT SHEET.

IF YOU SAY, HEY, SO WHAT ZONING CAN GO HERE? THAT'S WHAT WE PUT IN THE ZONING CATEGORY SO THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO KIND OF WORRY ABOUT WHAT YOU CAN DO THERE.

IT'S SUPPOSED TO CAPTURE WHAT YOU'RE ALLOWED TO DO IN THE REGIONAL OFFICE COMMERCIAL MULTIPLE-FAMILY CATEGORY.

CHISHOLM TRAIL CORRIDOR. THE GREEN TEXT IS WHAT'S BEING PROPOSED.

IT'S THE SAME THING WE PRESENTED TO YOU ALL IN THE CITY COUNCIL, AND THIS IS TO CAPTURE SOME OF THE MIXED USE DEVELOPMENTS THAT WE'RE SEEING A LOT OF INTEREST IN. WE'RE LOOKING AT DOING THAT ON NON-MAJOR INTERSECTIONS, AND AGAIN, THE FEASIBILITY THAT WILL RELY ON INFRASTRUCTURE AND CONNECTIVITY. AND WE WOULD ADD A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DESIGNATION IN THE CORRESPONDING ZONING DISTRICT BAR SO THAT A DEVELOPER WOULD KNOW WHAT THE CITY WOULD BE DIRECTING THEM TO DO. THE TOD TRANSIT ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT CATEGORY.

SO WHAT YOU SEE IN YELLOW IS THE AREA THAT WE'RE LOOKING TO HAVE MIXED USE ON.

SO WHY MIXED USE? WHEN YOU GET TO THE ACTUAL INTERSECTION WE'RE LOOKING TO HAVE THAT AS COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL.

AND THEN AS YOU FAN OUT, YOU TYPICALLY DON'T GET A HARD STOP AND START DOING SINGLE FAMILY.

YOU TYPICALLY WILL TRANSITION TO A MIXED USE TYPE OF ELEMENT.

IT DOESN'T PRECLUDE SINGLE FAMILY, BUT WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO PUSH WITH THE MAP AMENDMENT IS TO HAVE IT TRANSITION INTO A LESS

[00:50:09]

INTENSIVE USE FROM COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL BY INCORPORATING, SOME SAY, FOR INSTANCE, NEIGHBORHOOD RETAIL AND RESIDENTIAL USES.

SO WE HAVE TO DO A FULL FLEDGED TEXT AMENDMENT TO CAPTURE WHAT IT IS THAT YOU ALL AND THE COUNCIL AGREED ON.

AND THIS IS JUST TO SPELL OUT WHAT THE COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL IS BEING SET ASIDE FOR, WHAT THE MIXED USE SHOULD CONTEMPLATE ACCOMPLISHING. AND ALSO, WE'RE GOING TO TALK ON TOUCH ON LANDSCAPING AND URBAN DESIGN SO THAT WE GET DEVELOPMENTS THAT WE THINK ARE MORE APPROPRIATE FROM A PEDESTRIAN LEVEL.

SO WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE SCALABILITY OF A PROJECT.

WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HOW IT'S SETTLED IN TO A GOOD LANDSCAPING FABRIC AND ALSO MAKING SURE THAT IT'S WALKABLE.

THAT'S WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO GET IN THIS AREA.

AND WE WOULD ADD IN A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT CORRESPONDING ZONING DISTRICT.

SO THESE ARE SOME OF THE HIGHLIGHTS OF THE CHANGES THAT WE DISCUSSED BACK IN BACK IN APRIL.

SO THE EMPLOYMENT GROWTH CENTER IS IN PURPLE.

SO THIS DESIGNATION INCLUDES THE COMMERCIAL AND BUSINESS PARK OVERLAY DISTRICTS.

OVERLAY. EXCUSE ME. SO THIS WOULD BE WHERE DATA CENTERS WOULD BE CONTEMPLATED.

SO WE MADE THE ZONING DISTRICT. YOU HAVE A PLACE TO PUT IT, AND THIS IS WHERE IT'S BEING PROPOSED TO GO ALONG THE INTERSTATE.

OF COURSE, THAT'S SUBJECT TO APPROVAL OF ZONING, BUT YOU WOULD NOT HAVE TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT THEM REQUESTING TO DO THAT SOMEWHERE ELSE IN THE CITY. WE WOULD DIRECT THEM TO THE I-35 CORRIDOR AND THEN LET THE ZONING PROCESS PLAY OUT.

SO AGAIN, WE TALKED ABOUT THE INCLUSION OF AN ADDENDUM.

THIS NEXT SLIDE SHOWS AN EXAMPLE THAT WE PREVIOUSLY PROVIDED TO YOU FROM VIRGINIA, FAIRFAX COUNTY, VIRGINIA. WE'RE GOING TO WE HAVE A TABLE SIMILAR TO THAT RIGHT NOW IN THE 2020 MIDPOINT UPDATE.

WE'RE GOING TO REVISE THAT. AND IT'S KIND OF LIKE A REPORT CARD FOR THE CITY.

YOU SHOULD BE TO GO IN AND SEE WHERE WE'VE CHECKED OFF ACCOMPLISHED, ACCOMPLISHED, ACCOMPLISHED.

AND THEN AS WE GET NEW DIRECTIONS FROM NEW THINGS, FROM THE PLANNING ZONING COMMISSION OR CITY COUNCIL, WE WOULD ADD THAT TO THE ADDENDUM. AND THEN IT'S KIND OF OUR REPORT CARD AND GIVES YOU SOME IDEA OF THE PROGRESS THAT WE'RE MAKING.

THERE ARE MULTIPLE DEPARTMENTS INVOLVED IN THE MIDPOINT 2020 UPDATE AS FAR AS THINGS THAT HAVE TO BE DONE.

SO IT'S NOT JUST DEVELOPMENT SERVICES, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, IT'S PUBLIC WORKS, IT'S CAPITAL ENGINEERING.

AND SO WHAT WE DO IS MAKE SURE THAT WE KEEP IT UP TO DATE ON THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN ACCOMPLISHED.

SO THAT'S A QUICK RECAP OF WHAT WE PREVIOUSLY DISCUSSED.

BUT THIS WILL REQUIRE PUBLIC HEARING. OBVIOUSLY, I CAN ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE FOLLOWING YOUR ACTION TONIGHT.

ONCE IT PROCEEDS TO COUNCIL, IT'LL BE GOING FORWARD FOR TWO READINGS, AND WE'LL HAVE TO MAKE SOME CHANGES THAT GET REFLECTED IN THE CITY SECRETARY'S OFFICE. SO WHEN THESE THINGS ARE DONE, THERE HAS TO BE A COPY KEPT ON FILE IN THE CITY SECRETARY'S OFFICE.

SO ANY MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC CAN GO THERE OR TO DEVELOPMENT SERVICES TO SEE THE UPDATED DOCUMENT.

SO I'LL ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE. CHAIR, COMMISSIONERS, PRIOR TO OPEN UP THE PUBLIC HEARING.

GO BACK TO SLIDE 27, PLEASE. THE SECTION THAT IS EAST OR SOUTH, I GUESS, OF ALSBURY AND HULEN. THAT SECTION TO THE RIGHT OF ALSBURY.

THAT'S WHERE THE NEW BASEBALL SOFTBALL FIELDS AND PARK, LEGACY PARK GOES.

YES. WHAT HAPPENS TO THE ZONING ON THE ACREAGE ACROSS THE STREET? IS THAT STILL PD? YES. SO ALL THAT AREA THAT WE HAVE IS DESIGNATED AS PLANNED DEVELOPMENT ZONING.

NOW, THE PD THAT YOU SEE ON THE SCREEN IS EXISTING PLANNED DEVELOPMENT ZONING.

YEAH. BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE THE TOD IS. NOBODY GET OUT OF THAT IS YOU HAVE TO ZONE YOURSELF OUT OF IT.

AND SO WHILE WE'RE PROPOSING PUTTING IN A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT, IT WOULD BE DIFFERENT.

YOU CAN DO A COUPLE OF THINGS. YOU CAN KEEP THE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT ZONING YOU HAVE OBVIOUSLY IF THAT IS SUITABLE FOR YOU.

BUT FOR SOMEONE WHO'S INTERESTED IN DOING SOMETHING LESS INTENSE IN TERMS OF DENSITY, WE WELCOME THAT.

AND YOU CAN GO IN AND AMEND THE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT ZONING THAT WAS PUT IN PLACE ON THE PROPERTY.

RIGHT NOW, EVERYBODY THAT YOU SEE ON THAT SCREEN WITH PD, THAT KIND OF WAS ATTACHED TO ALL THE PROPERTIES, BUT WE'RE NO LONGER DOING TRANSIT-ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT THERE. SO IT'S KIND OF NOT THE DIRECTION THAT THE COUNCIL

[00:55:10]

THOUGHT WAS STILL PRUDENT. SO IT'S NOT. SO I'M JUST TRYING TO MAKE SURE I UNDERSTAND CORRECTLY.

THAT'S NOT MIXED USE. UNDER FLUM CATEGORY PD.

IT'S JUST STRAIGHT PD. YES, YOU GOT IT EXACTLY CORRECT.

OKAY. THAT'S STRAIGHT PLANNED DEVELOPMENT ZONING. THAT'S A GOOD, VERY OBSERVANT VIEWPOINT.

YES. OKAY.

AND I CAN GO BACK TO ANY OTHER SLIDES THAT YOU HAVE.

I KNOW THERE'S A LOT OF INFORMATION. ARE YOU ASKING TO OPEN A HEARING ON THIS? IF THE COMMISSION WOULD LIKE TO OPEN A PUBLIC HEARING? OKAY. I'LL OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING ON THIS ITEM AND ASK IF ANYBODY WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK.

SEEING NO MOVEMENT. SO I'LL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AT 6:56.

COME IN AND ASK COMMISSIONERS IF ANYBODY HAS ANY.

SO WE'LL MAKE A MOTION TO. YES, SIR.

I WILL TAKE THAT REPORT FORWARD TO THE CITY COUNCIL. OKAY.

MOTION TO APPROVE TAKING THIS FORWARD TO THE CITY COUNCIL.

I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE ORDINANCE. AMENDMENT CHANGES AS PRESENTED.

I WILL SECOND. OKAY. I HAVE A MOTION BY MICHAEL.

I AM SORRY TO CONFUSE YOU. AND SECOND BY ASHLEY AND ALL THOSE IN FAVOR? OPPOSED? MOTION.

[4.D. Hold a public hearing and consider and take possible action on an ordinance amending the text of the city’s zoning ordinance codified in Appendix B of the City of Burleson Code of Ordinances. (Staff Contact: Tony D. McIlwain, Development Services Director)]

TO TAKE POSSIBLE ACTION ON ORDINANCE AMENDING THE TEXT OF THE CITY'S ZONING ORDINANCE CODIFIED IN APPENDIX B OF THE CITY OF BURLESON.

BURLESON CODE OF ORDINANCES. MR. MCILWAIN. YES.

COMMISSIONERS, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I WANT TO SPEAK SOMETHING TO THE RECORD.

I PREVIOUSLY SENT YOU ALL A VERY LARGE DOCUMENT SEVERAL WEEKS AGO, WHICH PROPOSED A LOT OF CHANGES TO THE ZONING CODE.

SINCE THAT TIME, I HAVE MET WITH VARIOUS MEMBERS OF THE LEGAL TEAM, CITY MANAGER'S OFFICE, AND WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE PROPOSED CHANGES ARE NOT COUNTER TO STATE LAW.

THERE'S BEEN A SENATE BILL THAT WAS PASSED BACK IN 2023 THAT WILL REQUIRE.

THAT REQUIRE CITIES TO NOTIFY INDIVIDUAL PROPERTY OWNERS AND RENTERS IF ANY CHANGE LEAVES A PROPERTY NON-CONFORMING.

AS YOU MIGHT WELL IMAGINE, THERE'S ANY NUMBER OF NON-CONFORMING PROPERTIES ALREADY IN THE CITY OF BURLESON.

WE DON'T WANT TO EXACERBATE THAT BY DOING WHOLESALE CHANGES.

I'M GOING TO GO THROUGH THE PRESENTATION, BUT WE'RE PROBABLY GOING TO REQUEST A NO VOTING ACTION TONIGHT.

BUT WE DO WANT TO GET FEEDBACK AND BRING BACK TO YOU SOMETHING A LITTLE BIT MORE STREAMLINED AND TAILORED TO THOSE CHANGES THAT WE KNOW WON'T LEAVE SOMEONE'S PROPERTY NON-CONFORMING AS A RESULT OF CITY'S ACTION.

OKAY? AND I'LL ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE IF YOU WANT MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE SENATE BILL AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE.
