The applicant was requesting to rezone 17.96 acres from "R-20" Single Family District to "BP" Business Park District for a proposed business park development. This site is the extension of Lakeside Trade Center, Phase 2, a business park that is currently being developed in the City of Flower Mound. The applicant was proposing to divide the site into two areas - an 11.11 acre site to be developed with a 62,100 square foot office/warehouse building and 6.85 acres to be developed as required parking for Building 5, located directly north in Flower Mound. Robert Beall, the applicant, 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 Herb Fry, to approve Zone Change Request Z03-01, and the motion prevailed by the following vote: Ayes: Oliver, Fry, Coy, Busbee, Nicholson, Undersander, and Crapp Nays: None CONDITIONAL USE REQUEST CU03-03 AND SPECIAL USE REQUEST SU03-02 OPRYLAND TEXAS HOTEL AND CONVENTION CENTER Next for the Commission to consider and make a recommendation to the City Council was Conditional Use Request CU03-03 and Special Use Request SU03-02 submitted by David Breeding for property located at 1501 Gaylord Trail and platted as Lot 1, Block 1, Opryland Addition. The applicant was requesting a conditional use permit to amend the previously approved site plan of CU01-15 (Ord. 01-12) for a planned commercial center with the possession, storage, retail -sale and on -premise consumption of alcoholic beverages (beer, wine, and mixed drinks) in conjunction with a 1,511 room hotel with conference center space in excess of 300,000 square feet, specifically, to establish sales and storage areas for alcoholic beverages. The applicant was also requesting a special use permit to establish cellular antenna equipment under the hotel silo with low profile antenna arrays on the hotel roof and to allow for approximately 20 video games and two pool tables. With this request the applicant proposed to establish the storage areas and sales areas for alcoholic beverages that were not established during the initial public hearing in December 1999. In addition, two tennis courts have been added to the site plan. An area to the northeast of the convention center has been designated as an "events lawn" and minor modifications have been made to the northern parking lot area to comply with fire lane requirements. Also with this request, the applicant intended to provide approximately 20 video games in the "Train Station" area of the atrium along with two pool tables. The applicant additionally intends to place cellular communication equipment under the hotel "silo" along with low 031803 2 P & Z JOINT PUBLIC HEARING MARCH 18 ,2003 profile antennas on the hotel roof. The exact location of the antennas has yet to be determined due to that portion of the hotel still under construction.

With no further guests to speak, one letter of protest, and no petitions, the public hearing was closed. In the Commission's deliberation session, Kevin Busbee moved, with a second by B J Nicholson, to approve Conditional Use Request CU03-03 and Special Use Request SU03- 02, and the motion prevailed by the following vote: Ayes: Oliver, Fry, Coy, Busbee, Nicholson, Undersander, and Crapp Nays: None SPECIAL USE REQUEST SU03-01, ABUNDANT LIFE ASSEMBLY OF GOD CHURCH Next for the Commission to consider and make a recommendation to the City Council was Special Use Request SU03-01 submitted by Eddie Brewer for property located at 1520 West Wall Street and platted as Lot 1 R1, Block 1, Abundant Life Assembly of God Addition. The applicant was requesting a special use permit to establish a drive with a monument sign and a future youth facility for the Abundant Life Assembly of God church. The request to establish drive access to the church from Northwest Highway was in preparation for the possible future removal of the Wall Street bridge that provides access to the church from the west over State Highway 114. A 98 square foot monument sign on Northwest Highway was also part of the request. At some point in the future the applicant intents to construct a structure on the site for use as a youth center/facility. A letter submitted by the applicant and written by the Texas Department of Transportation addresses the future of the Wall Street bridge over State Highway 114. The bridge will be removed with the SH 114 improvements through Grapevine due to the added lanes on SH 114 and the increased span length necessary to clear the new pavement width. Prior to a Council Workshop on February 6, 2002, the future of the Wall Street bridge over SH 114 was undecided. In the workshop, Council gave Staff clear direction that the City wants a bridge at this location when the SH 114 improvements through Grapevine are completed. Subsequent to the workshop, Staff met with TxDOT staff and City of Southlake Staff to discuss the bridge. Both cities want a bridge at this location. TxDOT Staff advised us that if both cities wanted the bridge, then TxDOT would include a new bridge in the plans. Eddie Brewer, the applicant, was present to answer questions and request favorable consideration of the request. 031803 3 JOINT PUBLIC MARCH • R Wanda Pittard, a neighboring property owner, spoke in protest to the request stating the changes would cause further congestion along Wall Street and cars would attempt to use the proposed drive as a thru access to and from Northwest Highway. Ms. Pittard also noted there is a serious water drainage problem arising from the Church property into the neighboring lots. Grant Pittard, a neighboring property owner, spoke in protest of the request stating traffic concerns with the submitted site plan. Dino Idoski, the owner of the Cafe Italia, stated concern, questioning if his newly purchased, adjoining property could cause conflict with alcoholic sales and the proximity of the proposed construction of the church. With no further guests to speak, three letters of protest, and no petitions, the public hearing was closed. In the Commission's deliberation session, there was discussion regarding proposed solutions to the drainage issues. Scott Dyer stated the church has been very willing and cooperative with the City in trying to solve this matter.
