Discussion during the public hearing portion of the meting commenced with
Mr. Jeff Fegan of the DFW Airport Planning Board, who spoke relative to
evaluations of airport sound exposure zoning. The subject property is
located in Zone B, which is classified as moderate exposure and is normally
acceptable, although land use controls should be considered. The Planning
and Zoning Commission questioned whether the noise zone for the property
could change according to an increase in air traffic, to an unacceptable
level of noise exposure.
Also addressed by the City, was flood plain studies for reclamation
purposes.
Then the Council noted that they would like to see deed restrictions of the
subject property. Terra Properties President, Mr. Paul Spain, noted that
the open space area located in Denton County could be dedicated to the City
of Grapevine prior to the annexation of the property.
Mr. Baddaker of the City Staff spoke relative to utility studies relative
to alternatives for providing water and sewer facility capabilities.
Councilwoman Spencer spoke relative to the impact of Sewer Treatment Plant
operations increasing in cost for both water and sewer to the customers.
The Council had a lengthy discussion relative to major cost impact of
utilities to Grapevine residents. It was noted that the rezoning of the
property is not the major factor in resolving utility problems, but that it
would have a long term impact on the City.
Then the City Council noted some items for which they had concerns
and needed answers for as follows®
1.) What and how will developer pay relative to utility operations.
2.) Needs to provide deed restrictions (proposal for deed restrictions).
