THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR. THE REQUEST BEFORE YOU ALL TONIGHT IS A REQUEST TO REZONE THE

[00:05:03]

AS MANY OF YOU WILL PROBABLY REMEMBER, THERE WAS A JOINT WORK SESSION HELD ON THIS REQUEST BACK IN AUGUST OF LAST YEAR.

AT THAT MEETING, AND THERE WERE A NUMBER OF TOPICS DISCUSSED SINCE THAT WORK SESSION.

THE APPLICANT AND STAFF HAVE WORKED TOGETHER TO BRING RESOLUTION TO ALL OF THOSE ITEMS. HOWEVER, ONE ITEM THAT WE WILL BE DISCUSSING TONIGHT THAT HAS BEEN INTRODUCED SINCE THAT WORK SESSION IS THE SINGLE FAMILY RENTAL PRODUCT KNOWN AS COTTAGE RESIDENTIAL THAT THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING WITHIN THE URBAN COMMUNITY.

BUT I WOULD LIKE TO GO AHEAD AND SPEND A FEW MINUTES TONIGHT TOUCHING BASE ON SEVERAL OF THE ITEMS THAT WE DISCUSSED DURING THAT WORK SESSION.

THE FIRST BEING PRODUCT TYPES AND UNIT COUNTS.

THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING A MAXIMUM OF 2,856 RESIDENTIAL UNITS ACROSS THE PROPERTY.

THIS NUMBER IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE FUTURE LAND USE PLAN AND CITY COUNCIL'S POLICY FOR MIXED USE DEVELOPMENT OF 55 UNITS TO THE ACRE.

OF THOSE 2,856 UNITS, 422 OF THOSE UNITS ARE PROPOSED BY RIGHT WITHIN THE MIXED USE URBAN SUB DISTRICT AND THE ENTERTAINMENT SUB DISTRICT.

ANY UNITS AFTER THE FIRST 422 UNITS WOULD BE EARNED THROUGH A SERIES OF EARN OUTS, AS NOTED IN THE STAFF REPORT.

ONE ADDITIONAL THING TO NOTE ABOUT THESE 422 UNITS OR ANY ADDITIONAL RESIDENTIAL UNITS IN THE ENTERTAINMENT DISTRICT, THOSE WOULD ALL REQUIRE APPROVAL OF A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT.

IN ADDITION TO THOSE 422 UNITS, THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING AN ADDITIONAL 422 UNITS BE PERMITTED IN THE FIRST PHASE BY RIGHT IN THE URBAN COMMUNITY.

THERE WOULD BE A SERIES OF OPEN SPACE AND PARK IMPROVEMENTS THAT WOULD HAVE TO BE MADE WITH THOSE FIRST 422 UNITS, AND THEN TO ENSURE THAT ALL OF THIS OPEN SPACE AREA HERE WAS ULTIMATELY IMPROVED.

THERE IS A STANDARD IN THE EXHIBIT B THAT STATES THAT A CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY FOR THE 844TH RESIDENTIAL UNIT ON THE PROPERTY WOULD NOT BE APPROVED UNTIL THE REMAINING IMPROVEMENTS WERE MADE TO THIS AREA SHOWN HERE IN REGARDS TO OPEN SPACE.

AGAIN, THE APPLICANT IS MEETING CITY COUNCIL'S POLICY FOR MIXED USE DEVELOPMENT AND IS PROPOSING TO DESIGNATE A MINIMUM OF 10 PERCENT OF THE PROPERTY AS OPEN SPACE.

HOWEVER, THERE IS ONE CAVEAT TO THAT.

SHOULD THE APPLICANT CHOOSE TO DEVELOP THE SINGLE FAMILY RENTAL PRODUCT WITHIN THE URBAN COMMUNITY, THEY WOULD PROVIDE A MINIMUM OF 15 PERCENT OF THAT SUB DISTRICT AS OPEN SPACE AND THEN THE REMAINING OF THE PROPERTY AT A MINIMUM OF 10 PERCENT.

THAT 10 PERCENT AND 15 PERCENT WOULD BE ACHIEVED BY PROVIDING A SERIES OF REQUIRED OPEN SPACE, AS NOTED IN THE EXHIBITS, AS WELL AS ADDITIONAL OPEN SPACE SIMILAR TO WHAT WAS SEEN IN THE FIELDS PLAN DEVELOPMENT.

ALSO, WE NEED TO SPEAK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE FLOOD STUDY.

FOR A PROPERTY THAT HAS A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF FLOOD STUDY, IT IS TRADITIONAL THAT A FLOOD STUDY IS SUBMITTED AT THE TIME OF ZONING.

HOWEVER, DUE TO THE SIZE OF THIS PROPERTY AND THE POTENTIAL FOR A PORTION OF IT TO BE DEVELOPED WITHOUT TOUCHING THE FLOODPLAIN.

THE APPLICANT AND STAFF DID WORK TOGETHER TO COME TO SOME LANGUAGE AND THEY PUT SOME LANGUAGE IN THE EXHIBIT STANDARDS THAT ESSENTIALLY SAYS ANY DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE URBAN COMMUNITY OR ANY DEVELOPMENT EAST OF THIS BLUE LINE HERE THAT I'VE NOW DRAWN OVER IN GREEN.

ANY DEVELOPMENT THERE WOULD REQUIRE THEM TO GO AHEAD AND SUBMIT THAT FLOOD STUDY TO THE CITY AND GET ACCEPTANCE OF THAT PRIOR TO MOVING FORWARD.

SO ESSENTIALLY, IF I WERE TO START DEVELOPMENT UP IN THE ENTERTAINMENT DISTRICT OR ANY PORTION OF THE MIXED USED URBAN DISTRICT IN HERE, THEY COULD GO AHEAD AND MOVE FORWARD WITHOUT THAT FLOOD STUDY GETTING SUBMITTED AND ACCEPTED.

CLIMATE CONTROLLED CORRIDORS, THE APPLICANT DID COME BACK AND LINE WITH THE RECENTLY APPROVED STANDARDS IN THE FIELDS PLAN DEVELOPMENT, THAT BEING THE FIRST 1,002 URBAN LIVING UNITS TO BE BUILT WITHOUT CLIMATE CONTROLLED CORRIDORS, 50 PERCENT OF THE UNITS IN EXCESS OF THE FIRST 1,002 UNITS WOULD THEN BE REQUIRED TO UTILIZE CLIMATE CONTROLLED CORRIDORS.

ONE BIG TOPIC OF DISCUSSION AT THE LAST WORK SESSION OVER THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS HAVE

[00:10:04]

AND ULTIMATELY, WHAT WAS DETERMINED AND WHAT IS PROPOSED BEFORE YOU TONIGHT IS THERE'S A TWO HUNDRED FOOT BUILD WITHIN ZONE, THAT BEING THIS BLUE AREA, ALONG LEGACY DRIVE.

ALL OF THE BUILDINGS OR WITHIN, THAT FALL, WITHIN THAT TWO HUNDRED FEET WOULD BE REQUIRED TO MEET THE MINIMUM BUILDING HEIGHTS, ALONG LEGACY DRIVE, THAT BEING TWO BUILDINGS AT A MINIMUM OF FIVE STORIES, THREE BUILDINGS AT A MINIMUM OF SIX STORIES.

ALL OTHER BUILDINGS WOULD BE REQUIRED TO BE A MINIMUM OF SEVEN STORIES.

SHOULD THE APPLICANT CHOOSE TO DEVELOP ANY RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS ALONG LEGACY DRIVE, THOSE WOULD BE REQUIRED TO BE A MINIMUM OF SEVEN STORIES AND BE OF TYPE ONE OR TYPE TWO CONSTRUCTION, THAT BEING CONCRETE AND STEEL CONSTRUCTION.

IN HAVING THESE DISCUSSIONS WITH THE APPLICANT, THE APPLICANT DID HAVE THE DESIRE TO HAVE SOME FLEXIBILITY TO DEVELOP BUILDINGS ALONG LEGACY THAT WE'RE IN WITHIN THESE PARCELS.

BUT THAT DID NOT DIRECTLY FACE ON LEGACY DRIVE, POTENTIALLY HAVING BUILDINGS THAT DID NOT MEET THOSE MINIMAL HEIGHTS THAT I JUST MENTIONED.

SO ULTIMATELY, WHAT IS PROPOSED IS THAT ANY BUILDING BEING DIRECTLY BEHIND WHAT IS ON LEGACY, DIRECTLY BEHIND, MEANING IF YOU WERE TO DRAW A LINE FROM THE OUTER EDGES OF WHAT FRONTS ON LEGACY, THEY COULD DEVELOP BUILDINGS IN THE REAR THAT WOULD NOT BE REQUIRED TO MEET THOSE MINIMUM HEIGHTS, THESE BUILDINGS IN THE REAR NOT MEETING, THE MINIMUM BUILDING HEIGHTS COULD ONLY GO, CAN ONLY BE CONSTRUCTED AFTER VERTICAL CONSTRUCTION BEGINS OF THE BUILDING, ALONG LEGACY DRIVE.

ALSO WANT TO POINT OUT THE ABILITY FOR THE APPLICANT TO DEVELOP SINGLE STORY BUILDINGS ON THESE TWO PARCELS HERE IN YELLOW.

UPON APPROVAL BY THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION WITH THE ABILITY FOR THOSE TO BE SINGLE STORY BUILDINGS.

THOSE SINGLE STORY BUILDINGS WOULD BE REQUIRED TO HAVE ROOFTOP DECKS.

AND THEN LASTLY, ALL OF THE BUILDINGS WITHIN THE BUILD WITHIN ZONE, ALL THE BUILDINGS ALONG LEGACY DRIVE WOULD BE REQUIRED TO BE ONE HUNDRED PERCENT STRUCTURED PARK, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF TEASER PARKING BEING PERMITTED IN SOME AREAS.

AS NOTED ON THE ZONING EXHIBIT.

ONE OF THE LAST THINGS I WANT TO TOUCH BASE ON TONIGHT IS THE SINGLE FAMILY COTTAGE OR SORRY, SINGLE FAMILY RENTAL PRODUCT KNOWN AS COTTAGE RESIDENTIAL.

THIS IS SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN RECENTLY BROUGHT TO STAFF BY SEVERAL GROUPS THAT WE WORKED VERY CLOSELY WITH THE APPLICANT HERE TONIGHT TO GIVE THIS PRODUCT A SINGLE FAMILY APPEARANCE. I'M GOING TO SHOW SOME PICTURES HERE OF SOME DEVELOPMENTS, A SINGLE FAMILY RENTAL DEVELOPMENTS IN NEIGHBORING COMMUNITIES AND HOW THEY HAVE DEVELOPED OUT.

SO WE REALLY WORKED TO KIND OF GIVE THIS A DIFFERENT LOOK AND REALLY PUSH THAT SINGLE FAMILY VIBE.

SO IF YOU START WITH THIS PICTURE HERE FROM A NEIGHBORING COMMUNITY, WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO SEE IS HEAD IN PARKING ADJACENT THE PRIMARY FIRE LANE.

THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE ANY STREET TREES.

YOU SEE THIS PICTURE HERE, THAT SIDEWALK IS GOING TO BE DIRECTLY BACK OF CURB.

WHAT WE TRIED TO ACCOMPLISH HERE IS ALONG THESE PRIMARILY PRIMARY FIRE LANES IS DOING ALL PARALLEL PARKING. ANY HEAD IN PARKING IS INTERIOR, INTERIOR TO THE SIDE.

AS YOU SEE HERE, ALL OF THE PERIMETER PARKING WOULD BE, IS OR IS REQUIRED TO BE PARALLEL PARKING. INTRODUCTION OF STREET TREES, HAVING THAT SIDEWALK AT LEAST SEVEN FEET FROM BACK OF CURB, NOT DIRECTLY AT THE BACK OF CURB.

THE BUILDINGS THEMSELVES, NOT DIRECTLY AT THE BACK OF SIDEWALK, BUT A MINIMUM OF 18 FEET FROM BACK OF CURB, INCORPORATING PORCHES THAT MEET THE CITY'S PORCH STANDARDS.

ALSO WANT TO POINT OUT FROM THESE PICTURES YOU'RE GOING TO SEE IN THE NEIGHBORING

[00:15:02]

YOU KNOW, YOU LOOK OUT OVER THE OPEN SPACE AND YOU'RE HAVE A DIRECT VIEW INTO A SOLID WOOD FENCE, WORK VERY CLOSE WITH THE APPLICANT TO REACH AGREEMENT ON WHERE SOLID WOOD FENCES WOULD BE PERMITTED WHERE APPROPRIATE, LIKE WERE COMPLETELY INTERNAL AMONGST THE UNITS. BUT ANY AREAS THAT WERE DIRECTLY ADJACENT OPEN SPACE OR WHERE YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE ANOTHER UNIT LOOK INTO IT, THAT THOSE WOULD BE OPEN ORNAMENTAL FENCES.

AS I MENTIONED EARLIER, THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING TO PROVIDE A MINIMUM OF 15 PERCENT OF USABLE OPEN SPACE WITHIN THE SINGLE FAMILY COTTAGE PORTION OF THE DEVELOPMENT, WHICH IS SIGNIFICANTLY DIFFERENT THAN THAT OF NEIGHBORING COMMUNITIES, WHICH LACK OPEN SPACE AND OR OPEN SPACE, ESSENTIALLY SEEMS TO BE AN AFTERTHOUGHT.

AGAIN, ALL AIR CONDITIONING UNITS, SOMETHING ELSE THAT YOU'LL SEE OR SEE A PICTURE HERE WHERE THEY HAVE AC UNITS JUST ADJACENT TO THE OPEN SPACE, DIRECTLY ADJACENT THE PARKING AREAS. IN THIS IN THIS REQUEST TONIGHT, ALL OF THOSE UNITS WOULD BE BEHIND THE FENCES SO THAT THEY WOULD NOT BE VISIBLE TO THOSE JUST WALKING THROUGH THE COMMUNITY.

AND THEN LASTLY, AS YOU PROBABLY NOTICED IN SEVERAL OF THESE PICTURES THAT I'VE SHOWN TONIGHT IS THAT ALL OF THE UNITS LOOK FAIRLY SIMILAR.

HERE THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING A SERIES OF VARIOUS ELEVATIONS OF THE SINGLE FAMILY RENTAL. YOU CAN KIND OF SEE SOME OF THOSE HERE AND HERE.

ALSO, THERE'S ANTI-MONOTONY STANDARDS IN THE PD AND THE AREAS OF ENCROACHMENT WOULD HAVE ENHANCED ARCHITECTURAL FEATURES BEYOND.

WHAT I HAVE MENTIONED TONIGHT.

THIS REQUEST ULTIMATELY DOES CONFORM TO AREAS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE CITY'S FUTURE LAND USE PLAN. THE CITY'S THOROUGHFARE PLAN.

YOU'D HAVE A RECOMMENDATION FOR APPROVAL TONIGHT IS SUBJECT TO THE EXHIBIT B STANDARDS LISTED WITHIN THE STAFF REPORT AND THE ASSOCIATED EXHIBITS.

THE APPLICANT IS IN ATTENDANCE TONIGHT AND DOES HAVE A PRESENTATION FOR YOU.

BUT WITH THAT, I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE THANKS, JONATHAN.

I KNOW WE HAVE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS, SO YOU WANT TO GO AHEAD? ON THE PART OF WHAT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT, THE SOLID WOOD FENCES.

CAN YOU JUST GO OVER THAT ONE MORE TIME? I MISSED. SURE. SOME OF THAT YOU SAID THERE.

SO FIRST OFF, I WANT TO SHOW THIS PICTURE FROM A NEIGHBORING COMMUNITY.

YOU HAVE THIS SOLID WOOD FENCE HERE.

SO THIS WHOLE PICTURE HERE IS A SINGLE DEVELOPMENT.

THESE THESE UNITS THAT YOU SEE BEHIND THE WOODEN FENCE ARE STILL PART OF THIS SINGLE FAMILY RENTAL COMMUNITY.

SO YOU HAVE THESE UNITS HERE THAT ARE LOOKING OUT ACROSS THIS OPEN SPACE AND THEY ARE STARING INTO A WOODEN FENCE.

SO STAFF WORKED WITH THE APPLICANT HERE.

AND THERE IS AN EXHIBIT AND THE PD, THIS BEING THIS EXHIBIT HERE.

SO WHERE YOU HAVE THESE UNITS HERE THAT ARE GOING TO LOOK OUT ACROSS THIS OPEN SPACE AREA, YOU'RE GOING TO SEE THIS KIND OF LIME GREEN LINE THAT'S REQUIRING OPEN FENCING IN THOSE AREAS. SO YOU'RE NOT JUST STARING AT A SOLID WOOD FENCE AT ALL TIMES.

[INAUDIBLE]. DO WHAT? WHAT DID YOU SAY? VEGETATION? IT'S ALL SO YOU'RE NOT STARING AT A SOLID WOOD FENCE.

OK. VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT PHILIPS CREEK DID ON THE OPEN SPACE LOTS WHERE THEY HAVE BASICALLY A METAL FENCE THERE, OPEN FENCING ADJACENT TO OPEN SPACE AND CORNER LOTS.

OK, THANK YOU. IS THAT? DO YOU HAVE ANOTHER QUESTION? NO, I'M GOOD.

SO CAN YOU GO BACK TO THE BUILD-TO LINE THERE ON LEGACY? I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE I UNDERSTOOD THIS BECAUSE IT WASN'T.

I WANT TO MAKE SURE IT'S CLEAR IN OUR RIGHT.

SO THAT'S EITHER ONE OF THESE IS GOOD.

BUT OK, SO IF YOU LOOK AT THE PREVIOUS SLIDE THERE, WE'RE SAYING WE HAVE BUILDINGS ALONG LEGACY AND YOU'RE SAYING BUILDINGS IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT TO THE TALL BUILDINGS WON'T BE BUILT UNTIL THE LEGACY FACING BUILDINGS ARE DONE.

SURE. SO IF THIS WERE A PARCEL, WHAT YOU SEE ON THE SCREEN WERE A PARCEL.

THE APPLICANT DOES HAVE THE ABILITY TO CONSTRUCT BUILDINGS DIRECTLY BEHIND THOSE ON LEGACY. WHEN I SAY DIRECTLY BEHIND, I MEAN BUILDINGS THAT FALL WITHIN THESE TWO RED LINES

[00:20:06]

SO THEY COULD NOT BUILD THESE TWO BUILDINGS UNTIL THIS BUILDING ON LEGACY WAS GOING VERTICAL. BUT.

SO MY QUESTION REALLY THEN IS IF THERE'S A BUILDING OVER HERE THAT THEY WANT TO BUILD.

THEY CAN BUILD THAT BECAUSE IT'S NOT DIRECTLY ADJACENT.

AND THAT IS THAT WOULD BE IN A PARCEL.

THAT'S NOT ALONG LEGACY.

THAT'S WHERE I WANT TO MAKE SURE IS CLEAR SIDE OF THAT, BECAUSE I LIKE THIS, BUT I DON'T WANT TO STOP OTHER DEVELOPMENT GOING ON.

SO OVER ROADS AND SO FORTH.

IF YOU LOOK AT THIS EXHIBIT HERE, YOU ESSENTIALLY SEE THIS MAJOR SPINE ROAD AND THEN IT KIND OF YOU KNOW, YOU COULD SAY IT KIND OF COMES DOWN HERE, THIS AREA HERE BEING THE AREA ALONG LEGACY.

SO WE'RE NOT PREVENTING THEM FROM BUILDING ANY OF THIS OVER HERE.

I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WAS CLARIFIED AND CLEAR.

SURE. I'M ALL FOR THAT.

SO PERFECT.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS AT THIS TIME FOR STAFF? ALL RIGHT. WOULD THE APPLICANT CARE TO SPEAK AT THIS TIME? THANK YOU, JONATHAN, FOR THE DETAIL.

MY NAME IS CLAY ROBY WITH THE APPLICANT 4145 TRAVIS DALLAS, TEXAS, 75204.

WE HAVE PREPARED SOME MATERIALS TONIGHT WHICH WOULD BE HAPPY TO UTILIZE IF THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL. BUT I'D LIKE TO JUST USE MY TIME TO ADDRESS ANY QUESTIONS AT THIS TIME.

THANKS. I THINK SO WE DON'T HAVE QUESTIONS AT THIS TIME.

SO DID YOU HAVE A PRESENTATION THAT YOU WANTED? I DO HAVE SOME MATERIALS THAT I'D BE HAPPY TO GO THROUGH.

BUT FRANKLY, IF YOU DON'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I REALLY BROUGHT IT AS CONTEXT TO ADDRESS ANY QUESTIONS THAT MIGHT COME UP.

SO IF THERE ARE NO QUESTIONS AT THIS TIME, OK.

ALL RIGHT. WE DON'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS AT THIS TIME.

THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU.

ALL RIGHT. DO I HAVE A MOTION TO OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING? SO MOVED. MOTION BY COMMISSIONER CONE.

SECOND. SECOND BY COMMISSIONER KELLY.

ALL THOSE IN FAVOR? AYE. ANY OPPOSED? THE MOTION CARRIES FOR A PUBLIC HEARING IS NOW OPEN.

IS THERE ANYONE THAT WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK FOR OR AGAINST THIS ITEM THIS EVENING.

SEEING NONE, MOVE TO CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING.

MOTION BY COMMISSIONER COLBERG.

SECOND. SECOND BY COMMISSIONER KELLY.

ALL THOSE IN FAVOR? ANY OPPOSED? MOTION CARRIES FOR A PUBLIC HEARING IS NOW CLOSED.

ALL RIGHT. SO JUST TO TALK ABOUT THIS PROJECT, I THINK WE HAD A WORK SESSION WITH CITY COUNCIL BACK IN AUGUST OF LAST YEAR, AND THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF WORK DONE.

AND I WANT TO THANK THE DEVELOPMENT TEAM FOR EXCRUCIATING DETAIL THAT THEY GOT INTO THIS PLANNED DEVELOPMENT. IT SEEMS TO PROVIDE SOME FLEXIBILITY FOR THE DEVELOPER, BUT ALSO PROTECTING THE DEVELOPMENT IN THE LONG TERM VIABILITY OF THIS PROJECT FOR THE CITY.

IT HAS A, IF I UNDERSTAND, IT HAS A LOT OF COMMERCIAL COMPONENTS IN HERE.

THIS IS DESIGNED TO BE TIED TO THE PGA IN TERMS OF A PEDESTRIAN WALKWAY FROM THE OMNI VILLAGE OVER LEGACY INTO A PROMENADE THAT WILL ALLOW FOLKS VISITING THE PGA TO COME VISIT AN ENTERTAINMENT AREA.

OTHER COMPONENTS INSIDE THE DEVELOPMENT HAS A BASE LEVEL OF 422 MULTI-FAMILY UNITS . IF I BELIEVE THAT'S CORRECT.

AND THEN THE ABILITY TO HAVE EARN OUT BASED OFF OFFICE SPACE, HOSPITALITY, HOTEL FOR SOME ADDITIONAL COMPONENTS.

THERE IS ALSO AN ENTERTAINMENT SUB-DISTRICT IN HERE.

I'D LIKE TO ASK THE APPLICANT A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS ON THE ENTERTAINMENT AREA.

IF YOU'RE ABLE TO COME UP.

CAN YOU DO A, MR. ROBY, CAN YOU DESCRIBE THE SOME OF THE TYPES OF THINGS THAT THE ENTERTAINMENT DISTRICT MIGHT PROVIDE FOR RESIDENTS, FOR FOLKS IN THIS AREA? OF COURSE, SIR. SO THE ENTERTAINMENT DISTRICT WAS INITIALLY CONCEIVED IN COLLABORATION WITH THE PGA OF AMERICA.

WHEN PGA FRISCO WAS COMING TOGETHER.

THE LEADERSHIP, THEY ARTICULATED A VISION FOR THIS PROJECT, MEANING THIS AREA OF FRISCO BEING THE HOME OF GOLF IN AMERICA.

SO ANYTHING THAT ADVOCATES FOR THE GAME OF GOLF AND HENCE INCREASING THE UTILIZATION OF THE SPORT WAS OF INTEREST.

SO WE'RE ACTUALLY UNDER CONTRACT ON A FEW PARCELS IN THAT SITE THAT WOULD LEND TOWARDS GOLF FOCUSED USES.

IN ADDITION TO THAT, AND IF YOU RECALL FROM THE WORK SESSION WE HAD BACK IN AUGUST, THE KIERLAND RESORT IN PHENIX AND KIERLAND COMMONS IS A COMMON EXAMPLE THAT'S USED IN THE MARKETPLACE FOR A GOLF RESORT BASED HOTEL PROPERTY WITH MEETING SPACE ADJACENT TO AN

[00:25:05]

AND UTILIZING THE SYNERGY BETWEEN THOSE TWO IS PRETTY IMPORTANT.

SO WE'VE BEEN IDENTIFYING ADDITIONAL USERS.

THAT WOULD BE FOOD AND BEVERAGE, ENTERTAINMENT, MUSIC, ESSENTIALLY THINGS FOR PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY OF FRISCO TO UTILIZE.

ALSO THINGS FOR PEOPLE THAT WERE COMING TO STAY AT THE RESORT.

THEY MIGHT WANT TO HAVE AN ACTIVITY OUTSIDE OF GOLF TO DO AN ALTERNATIVE EXPERIENCE.

SO WE'RE PLANNING FOR BOTH OF THOSE WITHIN THAT LAND.

VERY NICE. I'M ACTUALLY HEADING TO SCOTTSDALE IN THE MORNING.

SO I'VE BEEN TO KIERLAND SEVERAL TIMES.

YEAH, PERFECT.

[INAUDIBLE]. SO IN TERMS OF, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE A LOT OF COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT DOWN IN THE FIELDS AREA, YOU KNOW, WHAT IS THE OBJECTIVE TO HAVE COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT, ALONG LEGACY AND PGA PARKWAY HERE? YEAH, ABSOLUTELY. FIRST, LET ME SAY THAT, YEAH, WE'RE VERY PLEASED THAT THE LAND SOUTH OF THE COURSE IS OWNED BY IT'S OBVIOUSLY COMBINATION WITH THE HUNT FAMILY AND REES-JONES AND FEMI, GREAT DEVELOPERS AND A GREAT VISION FOR THEIR PROPERTY.

I THINK WHAT WE FOCUSED ON FOR OUR DEVELOPMENT WAS THE WALKABLE CONNECTIVITY TO PGA FRISCO. AS EVERYBODY'S AWARE FROM THAT SITE PLAN, THERE'S A 14 FOOT WIDE COBBLESTONE PATHWAY THAT GOES FROM THE PGA HEADQUARTERS ON THE WESTERN SIDE OF PGA FRISCO THROUGH THE RETAIL VILLAGE BY THE CLUBHOUSE IN FRONT OF THE HOTEL, BY THE MEETING SPACE, AND ESSENTIALLY TERMINATES ON THAT PROPERTY AT LEGACY DRIVE.

WE WERE VERY INTERESTED WITHIN THE APPLICATION HERE TO PROVIDE CONNECTIVITY ON BOTH SIDES OF LEGACY FROM THAT TERMINUS.

SO IDEALLY, PEOPLE FROM THE PGA HEADQUARTERS WOULD BE ABLE TO WORK THEIR WAY, ALL THE WAY INTO OUR DEVELOPMENT WITHOUT EVER GETTING ON A ROAD IN THE SAME EXPERIENCE FROM OUR PROPERTY GOING THE OTHER WAY WITH A COMBINATION OF USES FOR RETAIL, RESTAURANTS, OFFICES, HOTELS, THINGS OF THAT NATURE, RESIDENTIAL ON OUR PROPERTY, WE FELT IT WAS IMPORTANT TO INCREASE THE CONNECTIVITY FROM OUR SITE GOING THAT WAY AS WELL.

YOU CAN WALK OVER AFTER A MEETING, HAVE A NICE MEAL.

YOU CAN, YOU KNOW, AT THE END OF THE DAY, WALK OVER AND PLAY NINE HOLES, THINGS JUST VERY ACTIVE, PERMEABLE CONNECTIVITY BETWEEN THE TWO SITES.

AND SO THAT CONNECTIVITY WAS REALLY THE DRIVING POINT FOR THE ENTIRE VISION FOR I WOULD SAY BOTH PGA FRISCO AND THE LINK HERE AND ENSURING THAT WE MAINTAIN THAT AND HAD USES THAT WERE NOT NECESSARILY COMPETITIVE BUT SYNERGISTIC TO ONE ANOTHER WAS PART OF OUR EARLY PLANNING EFFORTS.

APPRECIATE THAT. THE I MEAN, I SEE THIS SPOT AS BEING THE THE ENTRY POINT TO WHAT I CALL THE SILICON VALLEY OF GOLF, WHICH, YOU KNOW, GOLF MANUFACTURERS, DEVELOPMENT, THOSE TYPES OF THINGS. I THINK THE OFFICE SPACE THERE PROVIDES VERY QUICK ACCESS FOR FOLKS TO THE PGA. AND IF WE DO ARE ABLE TO GET BUSINESSES THAT ARE GOLF ORIENTED.

AND TO TENANT THERE, I CERTAINLY THINK THAT WOULD BE GOOD FOR FRISCO.

LAST THING I WANTED TO ASK YOU ABOUT THE THE COTTAGE RESIDENTS CONCEPT.

I THINK WE HAD TALKED ABOUT THIS BEFORE.

NOT WAS IT NOT IN FAVOR OF, YOU KNOW, A SINGLE LOT MULTI SINGLE FAMILY DEVELOPMENT. BUT I THINK THE THING THAT IS DIFFERENT AND JONATHAN, I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR THE PICTURES OF WHAT NOT TO DO.

I THINK OUR STAFF HAS DONE A VERY GOOD JOB OF LEARNING FROM, YOU KNOW, FROM WHAT YOU KNOW, WHAT I CALL A MID-LEVEL OR LOWER LEVEL BUILDING.

TALK TO ME A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE BUILDING STANDARDS, BECAUSE THE IMAGES THAT WE SAW THAT ARE NOW PART OF THAT WOULD BE PART OF THE PLAN DEVELOPMENT ARE VERY NICE.

AND JUST SO THAT FOLKS ON THE WATCH, ON THE VIDEO AND SO FORTH CAN UNDERSTAND THE BUILD OUT LEVEL AND QUALITY THAT IS GOING INTO THIS TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT AS COMPARED TO SOME OF THE OTHER ONES THAT WE'VE SEEN.

YEAH, ABSOLUTELY. THANKS FOR THE QUESTION.

SO THE BASIS FOR OUR COTTAGE RESIDENTIAL PROGRAM, OUR COMPANY, STILLWATER CAPITAL, ACTUALLY HAS AN ACTIVE CUSTOM HOME BUILDING, HIGH END CUSTOM HOME BUILDING BUSINESS.

AVERAGE PRICE POINT FOR THOSE HOMES IS GENERALLY IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF THREE TO FIVE MILLION DOLLARS. AND SO WHEN WE STARTED LOOKING AT THIS, OBVIOUSLY THE CITIES HEARD IT FROM SOME OTHER DEVELOPERS, POTENTIALLY LOOKED AT IT FROM SOME ADDITIONAL SITES.

WE WANTED TO ENSURE THAT THE QUALITY AND THOUGHTFULNESS OF OUR SINGLE FAMILY HOME BUSINESS THAT EXISTS TODAY WAS INFUSED INTO EVERYTHING WE WOULD DESIGN ON THE COTTAGE RESIDENTIAL. SO EVERYTHING FROM ARTICULATION OF THE FACADE, SIZING OF THE PORCHES, GREEN SPACE AND KIND OF WALKABILITY FACTORS WITH THE SIDEWALKS AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE LANDSCAPING, FRONT PORCHES, OPEN BACKYARDS, ALL THOSE THINGS THAT WE SEE VALUE IN WITHIN OUR SINGLE HOME PLATFORM.

WE WANT TO DO INCORPORATE HERE SO THAT PEOPLE THAT CHOOSE TO LIVE IN THIS COMMUNITY.

AND WE BELIEVE STRONGLY THAT THAT IS A MARKET THAT IS LIKELY TO BE CHOOSING TO BE THERE, NOT NECESSARILY HAVING TO BE THERE.

THEY'RE CHOOSING THAT PARTICULAR LIFESTYLE FOR A REASON.

THE DESIGN ELEMENTS OF OUR SINGLE FAMILY WERE INFUSED IN.

SO WE HAVE IN-HOUSE ARCHITECTS, INTERIOR DESIGNERS, RESIDENTIAL BROKERAGE FOLKS, THINGS

[00:30:04]

THAT ENTIRE TEAM WAS BROUGHT IN.

AND THE CONCEPTING OF THIS PROJECT TO ENSURE THAT THE COTTAGE RESIDENTIAL WE DEVELOPED HERE FELT MORE LIKE A HIGH END RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITY AND LESS LIKE I THINK SOME OF THE MISTAKES IS MAYBE THE RIGHT WAY TO SAY IT.

THAT HAD BEEN POINTED OUT FROM PREVIOUS PROJECTS.

IN THIS TYPE OF PROJECT, WHICH IS NEW TO FRISCO.

THIS IS GOING TO BE MANAGED BY A SINGLE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANY WHICH WILL TAKE CARE OF ALL THE GROUNDS. THAT'S RIGHT.

SO ALL THE BUILDING IF THE, ANY ISSUES CAME UP FROM A BUILDING PERSPECTIVE, MAINTENANCE PERSPECTIVE AND THE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANY'S RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT LIKE THEY WOULD BE IN OTHER PROPERTIES.

SO YOU'RE NOT LEAVING THAT UP TO INDIVIDUAL HOMEOWNERS TO MAINTAIN IS GOING TO BE MAINTAINED AT A CERTAIN LEVEL.

SO I THINK THAT'S VERY ADVANTAGEOUS FOR LOCK AND LEAVE AND OTHER TYPES OF THINGS THAT WOULD GO AROUND THE PGA FROM A RENTAL PERSPECTIVE, BUT PROVIDE A HIGH LEVEL OF QUALITY.

SO I CERTAINLY APPRECIATE THE WORK THAT WAS DONE ON THAT.

YOU KNOW, THE CONCEPT AT FIRST WAS IT WAS DIFFERENT IN BUT A LOT OF WORK WENT INTO THAT.

JONATHAN AND MR. ROBY APPRECIATE THE WORK THAT YOU DID ON THAT.

I THINK AT THIS TIME I HAVE I DON'T HAVE ANY MORE QUESTIONS ON IT.

JUST GO DOWN THE ROW HERE AND START WITH COMMISSIONER CONE HERE AND MAKE OUR WAY LEFT.

SO I HAVE A QUESTION FOR THE APPLICANT.

THE VISUAL THAT YOU PAINTED A FEW MINUTES AGO ABOUT THE TRAIL CONNECTIVITY.

WITH THE OTHER SITES AROUND THERE, DO YOU HAVE AN EXHIBIT THAT YOU CAN PULL UP? SURE, JUST THE OVERALL SITE PLAN IS MAYBE THE BEST PLACE TO START? THANK YOU. YEAH, AND IF YOU COULD JUST RECAP WHAT YOU TOLD US EARLIER, BUT NOW WITH THE VISUAL UP THERE. YEAH.

SO WHAT WE SEE HERE I'M TRYING TO FIND ONE THAT'S A LITTLE BIT CLEARER.

SO THIS IS THE CONVENTION CENTER SPACE OVER HERE IN THE TOP LEFT CORNER OF THE SCREEN.

IMMEDIATELY SOUTH OF THAT IS THE PEDESTRIAN WALKWAY THAT IT'S ACTUALLY IN PLACE TODAY.

YOU CAN PHYSICALLY GO SEE THIS AT THIS MOMENT.

IT COMES INTO THE PROPERTY AND TIES IN RIGHT AROUND THERE, EXACTLY RIGHT WHERE THAT BLUE LINE IS. AND SO THE EXPECTATION IS THAT YOU WOULD GO THE REASON FOR THE REQUEST FOR THE LOWER DENSITY AND THAT ONE LITTLE SLIVER WHERE WAS HIGHLIGHTED YELLOW IN OUR SITE PLAN FOR RESTAURANTS WITH ROOFTOPS WAS TO CREATE ESSENTIALLY AN ENTRY POINT INTO THE DEVELOPMENT SO THAT AS YOU WERE WALKING FROM THE RESORT PROPERTY INTO OUR PROPERTY, IT DIDN'T FEEL QUITE AS INTIMIDATING JUST FROM A PEDESTRIAN EXPERIENCE.

AND YOU WEREN'T OVERWHELMED BY THE RATIO BETWEEN WHERE YOU'RE WALKING IN IN THE BUILDINGS NEXT TO YOU SO THAT YOU ESSENTIALLY BUILD INTO THAT DENSITY.

AND SO THAT WALKWAY THAT COMES OVER HERE ON THE SIDE THEN COMES IN.

WE'VE IDENTIFIED WITHIN OUR APPLICATION IS THE MAJOR SPINE ROAD AND IT RUNS FROM PGA PARKWAY DOWN THE DEVELOPMENT THROUGH THE MIDDLE AND COMES BACK UP HERE AND THEN ALSO RUNS OVER TOWARDS THIS DIRECTION AND ULTIMATELY INTO THE COTTAGE RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITY.

SO THE IDEA BEHIND THAT AND WHAT'S SHOWN IN OUR APPLICATION AND IN OUR STREET PROFILE SECTIONS IS ENHANCED WALKABILITY.

THESE ARE WIDE SIDEWALKS, AREAS THAT ARE SET ASIDE POTENTIALLY FOR RESTAURANT PATIOS, THINGS OF THAT NATURE TO REALLY ENCOURAGE PEDESTRIAN CONNECTIVITY BETWEEN THE TWO AND LESS VEHICULAR CONNECTIVITY BETWEEN THE TWO.

AND A FOLLOW UP QUESTION WITH THAT.

AS FAR AS CROSSING A PGA PARKWAY.

WHAT IDEAS DO YOU HAVE TO TELL PEOPLE TO SAFELY GO BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN THE TWO? YEAH, GREAT QUESTION. WE'VE ACTUALLY SPOKEN AT LENGTH WITH STAFF, WITH TRAFFIC AND OTHERS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. WE LOOKED AT A VARIETY OF WAYS TO CROSS LEGACY AT THAT LOCATION, AND WE ACTUALLY LOOKED AT MULTIPLE LOCATIONS.

WE LOOKED AT ABOVE GRADE CONNECTIONS, MEANING A BRIDGE THAT WOULD GO OVER.

WE LOOKED AT BELOW GRADE CONNECTIONS THAT WOULD BE DUG UNDERNEATH THE GROUND.

AND WE LOOKED AT AT GREAT CONNECTIONS, A COMBINATION OF TRAFFIC, SIGHTLINES, SIGNAL LOCATIONS, TOPOGRAPHY ON BOTH SIDES, THE GOLF COURSE FOOTPRINT.

THERE WERE SOME CONSTRAINTS THAT ESSENTIALLY GOT PILED ON TO THAT TO ME AND OUR WAY TOWARDS WHAT WE FEEL LIKE WAS BOTH ESTHETICALLY AND FROM AN EXPERIENCE PERSPECTIVE APPROPRIATE THAT FELT NICE AND TRIED TO MINIMIZE THAT SMALL SECTION OF THE EXPERIENCE, BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY IT'S A VERY LONG CONNECTION, BUT ALSO WAS SAFE.

AND SO THE SOLUTION THAT WE CAME UP WITH IS A PEDESTRIAN SIGNALIZED CROSSING.

AND SO THIS WILL BE ESSENTIALLY A PUSH-BUTTON TRAFFIC STOPPING CROSSING SIGNAL THAT WOULD ONLY BE UTILIZED WHEN PEDESTRIANS ARE PRESENT.

I DON'T KNOW. ALL THE DETAILS HAVE TO GO INTO THE ENGINEERING SPECIFICALLY, BUT AT A HIGH LEVEL, IF YOU'RE COMING DOWN LEGACY DRIVE AND THERE'S NOBODY CROSSING, YOU WOULD JUST PROCEED. WE ARE I BELIEVE WE HAVE A PAVER SYSTEM.

IT'S GOING TO BE INSTALLED IN LEGACY THERE WHEN THAT PEDESTRIAN CONNECTION HAPPENS WITH THE SIGNALIZED STOP SO YOU CAN PUSH THE BUTTON, STOP TRAFFIC AND WALK SAFELY ACROSS.

AND THAT'S ON THE THE MAP WHERE YOU DREW THE BLUE LINE UP THERE? THAT IS THAT CROSSING HAPPENS, RIGHT? IF YOU CAN SEE KIND OF ON JUST DRAW A NODE BASICALLY.

RIGHT IN IN THAT AREA.

[00:35:02]

AND SO THAT THAT INTERSECTION THERE WILL BE A FULL SIGNALIZED INTERSECTION WITH PEDESTRIAN CROSSWALK. OK, IF I UNDERSTAND FROM STAFF THAT AT SOME POINT THE FUTURE OF TRAFFIC. THAT'S CORRECT.

YEAH. JUSTIFIES SIGNALING THAT.

THAT'S RIGHT. WITHIN PGA PARKWAY TRAFFIC OR PRESUMABLY PEDESTRIAN TRAFFIC.

I THINK EITHER ONE OF THOSE THEORETICALLY COULD TRIGGER THAT CONSTRUCTION.

SO I THINK THAT WOULD BE BASED OFF OF WHEN THAT ENTERTAINMENT AREA.

WAS DEVELOPED IN THE PHASING OF THAT WHEN YOU SEE MY SIGNALIZED CROSSING WOULD BE REQUIRED. THAT'S CORRECT.

THAT WAS MY QUESTION, MAKING SURE YOU WERE PREPARED FOR IT IN THE FUTURE, THAT YOU'VE THOUGHT ABOUT IT WHEN WHENEVER THAT TIME COMES.

THAT'S RIGHT. IT'S IN OUR INFRASTRUCTURE PLAN DOCUMENTS TODAY.

OK, GREAT. IT'S JUST A QUESTION OF TIMING OF CONSTRUCTION.

OK, CAN YOU PULL UP THIS THE TRAILS EXHIBIT.

DO YOU HAVE THAT AS PART OF YOUR? AND JUST A QUESTION ON THE, I ASKED THE STAFF THIS QUESTION EARLIER, ON THE KIND OF RIGHT HAND SIDE OR ALONG THE BLUE LINES, THERE WAS THIS 14 FOOT WIDE HIKE AND BIKE TRAIL BRIDGE OPTIONAL. WE KNOW THAT ALL OF THAT'S DEPENDENT ON THE FLOOD STUDY THAT WE'VE DONE IN THE FUTURE IS CORRECT. THE ONLY CONCERN I WOULD HAVE WOULD BE THE FOLKS THAT ARE IN THE COTTAGES, THE KIND OF THE GREEN, THE LIME GREEN THERE, AND THEN THE PURPLE CONNECTIVITY COMING OVER FROM THE ADJACENT LANDOWNERS TO YOUR EAST.

IF IT TURNS OUT FOR WHATEVER REASON THAT THAT BRIDGE IS NOT FEASIBLE, THEN WE UNDERSTAND THAT THAT'S OPTIONAL. IT MAY NOT THAT'S NOT GUARANTEED TO HAPPEN.

DO YOU HAVE AN ALTERNATIVE THOUGHTS ABOUT HOW YOU WOULD GET PEOPLE THROUGH THAT AREA IF YOU CANNOT OR DECIDE NOT TO DO THE THE BRIDGE CROSSING? FIRST, LET ME STATE THAT IT IS OUR PREFERENCE TO BUILD THE BRIDGE.

OBVIOUSLY, WE CAN'T COMMIT TO THAT WITH BINDING LANGUAGE UNTIL THE FLOOD STUDY'S COMPLETE. BUT GIVEN OUR EXPERIENCE AND INVOLVEMENT IN PGA FRISCO, IN THE NUMEROUS PEDESTRIAN CROSSINGS THAT HAPPEN JUST WEST OF LEGACY DRIVE HERE, WE'RE FAIRLY OPTIMISTIC THAT WE'LL HAVE SUCCESS.

AND SO JUST AS A AS A KIND OF LEVEL SET, THAT'S OUR EXPECTATION IN TERMS OF ALTERNATIVES.

WE DO HAVE MULTIPLE CONNECTIVITY THAT GOES NORTH UP TO PGA PARKWAY.

ESSENTIALLY, IF YOU'RE GOING FROM THAT PURPLE NODE GOING UP HERE TO PGA PARKWAY, WHERE THERE BE A SIDEWALK ALONG PGA PARKWAY.

WE HAVE CONNECTIVITY THAT RUNS DOWN THROUGH THE HIKE AND BIKE TRAIL THAT ULTIMATELY JOINS UP WITH THE CITY'S HIKE AND BIKE TRAIL HERE.

SO WE HAVE ADDITIONAL CONNECTIVITY FROM THIS LOCATION.

YOU COULD GET UP ON THIS SIDE AS WELL.

SO THERE'S NUMEROUS PLACES THAT PEOPLE COULD GO.

OBVIOUSLY, ANYONE THAT STUDIES PEDESTRIAN AND WALKABILITY SCORES, YOU WANT TO SHORTEN THE DISTANCE BETWEEN TWO POINTS.

AND SO FOR THAT TO OCCUR, THE WAY WE WOULD LIKE RUNNING FROM THIS PARK OVER THE BRIDGE AND INTO OUR DEVELOPMENT IS OUR PREFERRED OPTION.

OK, AND DO YOU HAVE A CONTINGENCY PLAN IF YOU CAN'T DO THAT BESIDES THE SIDEWALK ALONG PGA PARKWAY ALONG THE THE WESTERN SIDE OF THE CREEK THERE? WELL, IF I UNDERSTAND THE QUESTION, SO WITHIN THE PARVIN BRANCH SYSTEM, WHICH IS WHERE WE ARE IN THE FLOODPLAIN HERE, THIS IS A I'M GETTING IN A LITTLE BIT OUTSIDE.

THIS IS A [INAUDIBLE] QUESTION, REALLY.

BUT THIS FLOODPLAIN HERE IS LESS ACTIVE.

THE FLOW PATTERNS OF WATER THROUGH THAT SECTION ARE LESS SIGNIFICANT THAN COMING DOWN THIS DIRECTION. AND SO WHAT WE'VE BEEN LOOKING AT IS IT'S MUCH EASIER TO CROSS HERE.

AND SO IF YOU NEEDED TO MAKE A CONNECTION, YOU COULD DO THAT.

AS ANOTHER POSSIBLE OPTION? THAT'S RIGHT. OK.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU FOR THAT. SO I'LL HAVE MR. KENDALL. YES.

WITH REGARDS TO THE TWO PARCELS THAT YOU'RE REQUESTING, DO SINGLE STORY ALONG LEGACY.

I DON'T. THIS IS FOR CITY OR FOR APPLICANT.

IS IT A DESIRE TO DO ROOFTOP OR IS IT A REQUIREMENT TO DO A ROOFTOP? IT IS A IS IF WE DO A SINGLE STORY, I BELIEVE WE HAVE TO DO IF WE DO A SINGLE STORY, WE HAVE TO DO THE ROOFTOP DECK. THAT'S ABOUT THAT.

THAT WOULD BE EXCITING TO HAPPEN.

SO THE PEDESTRIAN PROMENADE HERE JUST TO HIGHLIGHT IT, THAT AREA THAT WE'VE REQUESTED IS ESSENTIALLY JUST ON EITHER SIDE OF THAT MAIN PEDESTRIAN CROSSING COMING IN, OR YOU SIT THERE ON A ROOFTOP AND WATCH A SUNSET OVER THE PGA? YEAH, THAT'S A GREAT SPOT.

IT IS.

ARGUABLY ONE OF THE BEST VIEWING PLACES IN ALL OF THE PROJECT UP HERE, THE HILLTOPS THAT ARE IMMEDIATELY TO THE SOUTH HERE IN THIS LOCATION.

AND THERE'S ANOTHER ONE OFF TO THE SIDE HERE.

IT'S THE BACK NINE OF THE CHAMPIONSHIP COURSE.

IT'S A BEAUTIFUL VIEWING POINT FOR THE GOLF COURSE.

NOT AS MUCH. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?

[00:40:01]

ULTRA EXCITED, ACTUALLY, FOR THAT.

FOR A MULTITUDE OF REASONS IS I'VE STUDIED THIS AND I THINK I HAVE A PRETTY GOOD UNDERSTANDING OF THAT SINGLE FAMILY FOR RENT AND KUDOS TO THE CITY OF FRISCO, THE REQUIREMENTS YOU PUT FROM AN ARCHITECTURAL STANDPOINT, I FEEL ULTRA CONFIDENT THAT THIS WOULD BE A VERY HIGH END PRODUCT.

AND I, AS MY RESEARCH SHOWS, IS THE SINGLE FAMILY FOR RENT JUST ATTRACTS IT'S NOT AGE RESTRICTED, BUT IT NATURALLY ATTRACTS AN OLDER DEMOGRAPHIC, A VERY AFFLUENT DEMOGRAPHIC.

AND I'M EXCITED FOR THAT TYPE OF PRODUCT IN FRISCO.

I THINK THERE'S A NEED AND I THINK THINGS THAT YOU, THE APPLICANT, HAVE AGREED TO COMMIT TO, I GREATLY APPRECIATE IT.

SO IT DOESN'T GO UNNOTICED.

ABSOLUTELY. THANK YOU.

COMMISSIONER KELLY? I DON'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, BUT I WOULD JUST WANT TO CONGRATULATE YOU FOR A GREAT PLAN.

I THINK WE'VE ALL PAID A LOT OF ATTENTION TO THIS SINCE LAST AUGUST.

I KNOW I SPENT SOME TIME OVER THE WEEKEND LOOKING AT IT.

I THINK THERE'S SOMETHING HERE FOR EVERYBODY TO COMMISSIONER KENDALL'S POINT ABOUT IT.

DIFFERENT PRODUCTS THAT WE HAVEN'T SEEN BEFORE.

I THINK IT'S VERY WELL THOUGHT OUT.

MY ONLY COMMENT IS AND I DON'T THINK WE.

AND DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS, BUT WITH THE BUILDINGS, THE, I GUESS, OFFICE BUILDINGS, SEVEN FOOT ON THE PERIMETER OF LEGACY THERE, I'D LIKE TO SEE SOME CONSIDERATION GIVEN TO THE SIGNAGE SO IT'S NOT BLARING AND BIG SIGNS.

I KNOW YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO WITHIN THE SIGN ORDINANCE, BUT YOU MIGHT WANT TO GIVE SOME CONSIDERATION TO TONING IT DOWN BECAUSE OF WHERE IT IS.

BUT IT'S A GREAT PRODUCT AND I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING IT.

THANK YOU. GREAT. THANKS FOR THE COMMENTS.

COMMISSIONER COLBERG? I DON'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

I UNFORTUNATELY WAS OUT OF TOWN FOR THE WORK SESSION, SO I WASN'T IN ATTENDANCE.

BUT THIS IS EXTREMELY WELL THOUGHT OUT.

IT'S I JUST THINK VERY INTENTIONAL, VERY COHESIVE WITH WHAT'S GOING ON AROUND THERE.

AND I WAS IMPRESSED, JUST AS YOU HAD SAID, THAT WE DO HAVE SUCH A DIVERSE PRODUCT AND A LOT OF UNIQUE THINGS COMING.

SO IT'S EXCITING.

SO CONGRATULATIONS. AWESOME. THANK YOU.

[INAUDIBLE]. I GAVE A LOT OF MY COMMENTS EARLIER.

I DO THINK THE MIXTURE OF USES HERE WITH THE MIXED USE, BUT ALSO HAVE AN ENTERTAINMENT AREA PROVIDES A LOT OF VALUE FOR THIS PORTION OF THE CITY.

I KNOW THERE'S GOING TO BE A LOT MORE UP HERE ON THE NORTH SIDE, BUT WE NEED IT ON THE NORTH SIDE. THE OFFICE WILL DRIVE ANY LONG TERM MULTIFAMILY THERE.

AND WE HAVE SOME REDUCTIONS, I HOPE, ON SOME OTHER PARCELS ON THE NORTH SIDE OF TOWN HERE FROM A MULTI-FAMILY PERSPECTIVE.

SO I THINK THIS IS REALLY A VERY GOOD PLAN.

I THINK IT'S PHASED REALLY WELL, AND I THINK IT'S GOING TO BE SUCCESSFUL FOR THIS PART OF FRISCO, BECAUSE ANYTHING LIKE KIERLAND COMMONS ALONG THAT PEDESTRIAN PROMENADE CERTAINLY WILL SET THE BAR VERY HIGH OVER HERE.

SO THIS TIME I HAVE NO THE QUESTIONS.

DO I HAVE A MOTION ON? CAN I MAKE A COMMENT? I DIDN'T SEE ANY COMMENTS EARLIER.

BUT JUST WANT TO THANK YOU GUYS.

THE REASON THERE ARE SO FEW QUESTIONS TONIGHT AND SO FEW ISSUES TO BE TALKED ABOUT IS BECAUSE OF ALL THE MONTHS THEY'VE GONE IN AND ALL THE HARD WORK FROM STAFF AND FROM THE APPLICANT. SO THANK YOU FOR THAT.

AND GETTING US THROUGH THIS PROCESS ON A VERY BIG PROJECT.

SEEMS LIKE IT'S GOING VERY QUICKLY AND SMOOTHLY TONIGHT BUT THAT'S BECAUSE OF ALL THE HARD WORK DONE BEHIND THE SCENES.

ABSOLUTELY. TOTALLY AGREE.

FOR FOLKS ON THE WATCHING ONLINE.

I MEAN, THERE'S PROBABLY A THOUSAND THINGS THAT WERE NEGOTIATED ON AN ITEM LIKE THIS.

IT'S NOT DONE WITHOUT A LOT OF HARD WORK BY STAFF, BY DEVELOPERS, PARTNERS.

AND ONE COMMENT, IF YOU CAN ANSWER SO THAT PEOPLE LISTENING CAN UNDERSTAND.

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN WORKING ON THIS PROJECT? YEAH, I MEAN. WELL, I MEAN, JUST NOT REALLY.

YEAH. I MEAN, HAVING BEEN INVOLVED IN PGA FRISCO WHEN THAT DEAL WAS COMING TOGETHER, WE STARTED WORKING ON PGA FRISCO FIVE YEARS AGO.

AND SO BEING INVOLVED FROM THEN UNTIL NOW HAS BEEN A PRETTY LONG JOURNEY SPECIFICALLY FOR A ZONING CASE HERE, WHICH I THINK IS THE CORE OF YOUR QUESTION.

I THINK OUR INITIAL APPLICATION WAS COMING UP ON 17 MONTHS OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, JUST A YEAR AND A HALF. THOSE THAT ARE LISTENING AND GOING, OH, DID YOU JUST WENT APPROVE THIS? THIS WAS 17 MONTHS OF GRUELING, HARD WORK.

WELL, THAT'S ONCE IT GOT TO US.

YEAH, YEAH, YEAH. EXACTLY.

THE WORK THAT WENT IN FRONT OF THAT EVEN LONGER SO.

ABSOLUTELY. YEAH.

YES. TREMENDOUS.

AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE.

ABSOLUTELY. SO ON THAT NOTE, I WOULD LIKE MOTION AN ITEM TWELVE.

MOTION TO APPROVE ITEM TWELVE AS RECOMMENDED BY STAFF.

MOTION BY COMMISSIONER KENDALL.

SECOND. SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER KELLY.

ALL THOSE IN FAVOR? AYE.

ANY OPPOSED? MOTION CARRIES FOR ITEM TWELVE IS APPROVED.

CONGRATULATIONS. GREAT.

THANK YOU ALL. APPRECIATE IT. THANK YOU.

DO HAVE THE DATE ON APRIL? DO YOU HAVE A DATE FOR [INAUDIBLE] THING ON APRIL? NO, I DON'T. I GENERALLY TRY TO DO THOSE ON THE SAME NIGHT AS A P AND Z MEETING AND WHEN IT'S GOING TO BE A LIGHT AGENDA, BECAUSE IF IT'S GOING TO BE A LONG AGENDA, I WANT TO BE RESPECTFUL OF YOUR TIME.

WITH DAYLIGHT SAVINGS STUFF COMING ON.

THAT'S RIGHT. SO IT STARTS SUNDAY.

IT'S GOOD. AND IT'S GOING TO BE LIGHTER LATER.
