JOINT PUBLIC HEARINGS
CONDITIONAL USE REQUEST CU02 -58 — NORTH MAIN STREET SHOPPING CENTER
First for the Commission to consider and make a recommendation to the City Council was

located at 100 North Main Street and platted as Lots 1 -5, Block 1, and Lots 1, 2R, and 3,
041503 1
P & Z JOINT PUBLIC HEARING
APRIL 15, 2003
North Main Shopping Center. The applicant was requesting a conditional use permit to
amend the previously approved site plan of CU96-28 (Ord. No. 96-87), specifically to
renovate the existing pole sign.
The renovations of the existing center have been underway for approximately the past 18
months. The refurbishment of the existing 20-foot pole sign is the final phase of the entire
shopping center renovation.
This was the first reading of the ordinance. The applicant was proposing to use the existing
sign poles for the new sign. The sign is set back five feet, six-inches from the property line.
When originally constructed in the 1980's, the sign met the requirements of the zoning
ordinance, however the sign does not meet today's required minimum setback of ten feet. A
request for a variance from the required ten foot sign setback for this site is scheduled for
the May 5, 2003 Board of Zoning Adjustment meeting. The case would be scheduled for a
second reading before the City Council after the Board of Zoning Adjustment meeting.
Steve Isbell, representing Realty Capital, was present to answer questions and request
favorable consideration of the request.
With no further guests to speak, no letters, and no petitions, the public hearing was closed.
In the Commission's deliberation session, Chris Coy moved, with a second by B J
Nicholson, to approve Conditional Use Request CU02-58, and the motion prevailed by the
following vote:
Ayes: Oliver, Fry, Coy, Busbee, Murray, Nicholson, and Undersander
Nays: None
CONDITIONAL USE REQUEST CU03-08 — COWBOY GOLF CLUB
Next for the Commission to consider and make a recommendation to the City Council was
Conditional Use Application CU03-08 submitted by Gordon Wagner and located at 1600
Fairway Drive. The applicant was requesting to amend the previously approved site plan of
CU01-16 (Ord. 01-39) for an 18-hole golf course, with the possession, storage, retail sale
and on-premise consumption of alcoholic beverages (beer, wine, and mixed drinks) in
conjunction with a restaurant/clubhouse, specifically to allow the development of an
enclosed pavilion.
The original conditional use permit (CU99-44) establishing the golf course showed a future
area for an enclosed pavilion. With this request the applicant proposed to construct a 6,000
square foot enclosed pavilion that will be used for special events as needed. Parking for this
structure was accounted for in the original request.
David Robinson, representing the Cowboys Golf Club, was present to answer questions and
request favorable consideration of the request.

vote:
Ayes: Oliver, Fry, Coy, Busbee, Murray, Nicholson, and Undersander
Nays: None
CONDITIONAL USE REQUEST CU03 -09 — GRAPEVINE DODGE
Next for the Commission to consider and make a recommendation to the City Council was
Conditional Use Application CU03 -09 submitted by Tim Parra and located at 2601 William
D. Tate Avenue and platted as Lot 1, Block 1, Frank Parra Dodge Addition. The applicant
was requesting a conditional use permit to amend the previously approved plan of CU01 -13
(Ord. 01 -46) for an automotive dealership with sales and service of new and used vehicles,
specifically to modify the site signage.
Conditional Use Request CU01 -13 was approved at the April 17, 2001 meeting and allowed
for an expansion to the Frank Parra Dodge dealership for the inclusion of a Mitsubishi
dealership. Currently the Dodge dealership has one 20 -foot pole sign approved along the
William D. Tate frontage road. With this request the applicant proposed to replace that sign
with a 40 -foot pole sign for increased visibility.
Dan Richardson, General Manager of Grapevine Dodge, was present to answer questions
and request a favorable consideration of the request.
With no further guests to speak, no letters, and no petitions, the public hearing was closed.
In the Commission's deliberation session, Danette Murray moved, with a second by Herb
Fry, to approve Conditional Use Request CU03 -09, and the motion prevailed by the
following vote:
Ayes: Oliver, Fry, Busbee, Murray, Nicholson, and Undersander
Nays: Coy
CONDITIONAL USE REQUEST CU03 -10 — WESTGATE PLAZA
Next for the Commission to consider and make a recommendation to the City Council was

041503 3
P & Z JOINT PUBLIC HEARING
APRIL 15, 2003
applicant was requesting a conditional use permit to establish a planned commercial center
for mixed use retail/office development.
At the time of public hearing, the applicant had no specific users for any lots within the
subject site. It was the applicant's intent to seek Council's approval for the planned
commercial center before a substantial investment in infrastructure improvements were
made preparing the site for development. Approval of this request would allow the applicant
to construct an access easement/drive which would be necessary to provide access to
interior lots within the site and to provide required frontage for setback and landscaping
purposes.
Staff received a letter from the applicant's representative requesting to table the above
referenced case. The applicant requested the opportunity to meet with surrounding area
residents to attempt to address their concerns relative to this proposed development.
The City Council and Planning and Zoning Commission approved the motion to table
Conditional Use request CU03-1 0 to the May 20, 2003 meeting.
With no further discussion, the public hearing was tabled.
In the Commission's deliberation session, Herb Fry moved, with a second by Danette
Murray, to table Conditional Use Request CU03-10 to the May 20, 2003 meeting, and the
motion prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Oliver, Fry, Coy, Busbee, Murray, Nicholson, and Undersander
Nays: None
CONDITIONAL USE REQUEST CU03-11 —WASHINGTON MUTUAL
Next for the Commission to consider and make a recommendation to the City Council was
Conditional Use Application CU03-11 submitted by Raymond Poche and located at 1319
West State Highway 114 and platted as Lot 8, Block 1, Towne Center Addition #2. The
applicant was requesting to amend the previously approved site plan of CU96-03 (Ord. 96-
20) to allow the development of a bank with drive-thru service.
The applicant proposed to utilize an existing building previously occupied by a Men's
Warehouse for a bank with four drive-thru lanes. Although some parking spaces were
necessarily eliminated because of the drive-thru lanes, the subject site exceeded the
minimum parking requirements.
Raymond Poche, representing Cencor Realty, was present to answer questions and
request favorable consideration of the request.
With no further guests to speak, no letters, and no petitions, the public hearing was closed.
