STAFF REPORT
HEARING DATE: February 15, 1990
RE: PECAN HOLLOW ADDITION, PRELIMINARY PLAT
LOCATION: Approximately 550 feet south of the intersection of
Parkway Boulevard and Lodge Road, along the west side of
Lodge Road.
SIZE OF AREA: 59.4 acres
REQUEST: Approval of a preliminary plat
APPLICANT: Gateway U.S.A.
Mr. Ron Fraze
10751Mapleridge Drive
Dallas, Texas
HISTORY: A planned development, Case #PD-110, was approved for
subject tract on January 9, 1990.
TRANSPORTATION:
Lodge Road is presently a two-lane substandard roadway,
which is in need of improvement. Construction of Lodge
Road along the frontage of this property will be the
responsibility of the developer, and will be required prior
to the development of any structure.
ANALYSIS: This developer has been working very closely with staff in
preparing the plat, insuring that all drainage concerns are
met, addressing the improvements to Lodge Road, developing
his homeowners association, and providing us with the tree
survey showing where all 14 inch caliper and larger trees
are located on the parcel. The developer's objective is to
preserve as many specimen trees - he's surveyed over 270 -
as possible as construction commences on the land. Based
on the willingness of this applicant to meet all the
obligations imposed by Commission and Co%mcil, this request
warrants approval provided that a homeowners association is
established to maintain common areas, a letter of
permission to drain across adjacent properties is
procurred, and a note is placed on the plat that front
entry houses will be built on the properties where no
alleys are provided.

Commissioner Weaver moved to deny the final plat for Park West
Commerce Center. Commissioner Scott seconded the motion; motion
carried (5-0) with Chairman Munsch and Commissioners Gross,
Redford, Scott and Weaver voting in favor of the motion.
Item 9: Consider approval of a preliminary plat for Pecan Hollow
Addition, located 550 feet south of the southwest corner of
Lodge Road and Parkway Boulevard, at the request of Gateway,
U.S.A.
Director of Planning Gary L Sieb introduced the item to the
Commission. Mr Sieb stated that this request is on a 59.4 acre
tract of land, with 204 lots. Mr. Sieb stated that the
developer has done a tree survey of trees 6 inches and larger.
They have spotted at least 270 trees on the property.
Mr. Ron Fraze and Mr. Bill Anderson were present to represent
this item before the Commission.
Following discussion Commissioner Gross moved to approve the
preliminary plat for Pecan Hollow Addition with the
recommendation that they try to change the alley on Block G if
it is feasible with the builders. Commissioner Weaver seconded
the motion; motion carried (5-0) with Chairman Mtulsch and
Commissioners Gross, Redford, Scott and Weaver voting in favor
of the motion.
Item 10: Consider approval of a preliminary plat for Oakbend Addition,
located near the southeast corner of Thweatt Road and State
Road, at the request of Mr. Jerry Lacy.
Planning Director Gary L. Sieb introduced the item to the
Commission. Mr. Sieb stated that this item has had a great deal
of discussion, and back on January 25, 1990, the Commission
denied the plat and recommended that staff expedite the review
of a revised plat, which was introduced at the Commissions'
January hearing. Staff has obliged, and the revised plat
includes an almost three acre park, the elimination of eight
lots, and the density has fallen from 148 to 140 units. Mr.
Sieb stated that staff is concerned with the size of the park,
the landscaping and the screening wall did not have the
homeowners association attached to it, and also the fact that
there is a suggestion that two pedestrian foot bridges be
extended across the ends of the cul-de-sacs into the park land
due to an existing ditch.
