B.2 FP-07-014 FINAL PLAT FOR THE HIGHLANDS AT TROPHY CLUB
NEIGHBORHOOD 3, PHASE 1A. CONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST FROM
CARTER & BURGESS, INC. ON BEHALF OF K. HOVNANIAN HOMES-DFW,
L.L.C. TO APPROVE A FINAL PLAT OF LOTS 1-14, BLOCK A, THE
HIGHLANDS AT TROPHY CLUB NEIGHBORHOOD 3, PHASE 1A (4.885
ACRES) (LOCATED ON THE EAST SIDE OF TROPHY CLUB DRIVE
ADJACENT TO DURANGO DRIVE AND NORTH OF THE QUORUM
CONDOMINIUM PROPERTY).
Chairman Hill announced the case and asked the applicant to explain his request.
Jaison Stephen, Carter-Burgess, stated that he and Brian Carlock and Brad Hunstable
(both with Hillwood Residential), were present tonight representing K. Hovnanian
Homes and Pacific Standard Homes to ask for approval of the final plats for
Neighborhood 3, Phase 1A and Neighborhoods 3 & 4, Phase 1B. He stated that this is
part of The Highlands development which was preliminary platted in January 2007. The
lots are 10,000 to 13,000 square feet. Phases 2 and 3 will be in subsequent years.
Chairman Hill stated that utility easements throughout the proposed development are
primarily located at the front lot lines, and since utilities make their own decisions
regarding locations of telephone kiosks, cable connection boxes, electrical transformers,
etc., will we see most of these at the curbside throughout most of the development? If
that is where they are going to be located, is there any means of reducing the visual
impact of these features by a more selective location? Brian Carlock, Hillwood
Residential, responded that both the phone companies and electric companies have
subsurface handholds and the only thing that should be exposed is every four to eight
lot lines will have an above ground transformer for electric. Somewhere strategically
located in the community will be one switch gear, usually an 8x8 box 3-ft. high. This will
also apply to Neighborhoods 3 & 4, Phase 1B.
Chairman Hill stated that there is a 10-ft. private drainage easement identified as PDE
on the plat and it is shown extending along the rear line of lots 2 through 8 and at the
rear line of lot 3. This PDE is also identified as a 10-ft. utility easement. Is this PDE
also a utility easement along its full length from lot 2 though lot 8? Jaison Stephen,
Carter-Burgess, responded that the lots in Phase 1A naturally drain onto Phase 1B.
Planning and Zoning Commission July 2, 2007 Page 6 of 30
They are installing a rear yard drainage system to pick up the drainage from the lot
before it goes onto the adjacent lot. Chairman Hill asked if the lots he is referring to are
in Phase 1B, Lots 20-27. Jaison Stephen confirmed that they are. Chairman Hill asked
if they are to be underground. Jaison Stephen confirmed that they are. Chairman Hill
asked if it would be pipe. He is concerned with how the integrity of the PDE will be
protected when fences are erected? Mr. Stephen stated that it would be small PVC
pipe, 4” at most, and that in most cases the builder will install a fence rather than a
homeowner adding a fence later.
Chairman Hill asked if 1B would be subsurface discharging onto Glasgow Drive. Jaison
Stephen confirmed that it would discharge onto Glasgow through an opening in the
curb. That water will then be picked up by the underground drainage system on
Glasgow.
Chairman Hill asked who would be responsible for resolving conflicts if someone’s line
is leaking or plugged in the future. Mr. Stephen stated that they show the easements so
that the home owners will know upfront what they will have on their property.
Chairman Hill stated that between lots 10 and 11 of Phase 1A there is a 10-ft. utility
easement that does not appear to be aligned with the 10-ft utility easement between lots
19 and 20 of Phase 1B. Jaison Stephen will correct that.
Vice Chairman Stephens asked for clarification that the PDE is going to be underground
rather than a swale. Jaison Stephen stated it would be underground.
Commissioner Ashby asked for further clarification of the utility easement on lot 3 which
was previously mentioned by Chairman Hill. Chairman Hill and Jaison Stephen
responded.
Commissioner Sheridan asked if there is a better way to identify the PDE on the plat so
that homeowners know that they are responsible rather than the Town. Especially with
the recent flooding, is there a better way to identify that this is private? Jaison
Stephen’s response was that it is clearly stated as such on the plat.
Commissioner Stephens asked who will be responsible for maintaining the 4” PVC.
Jaison Stephen responded that it will be the responsibility of the homeowner.
Commissioner Stephens responded that he could see how a homeowner could create
headaches for his neighbor. Commissioner Sheridan asked for a better explanation of
why this is necessary. Jaison Stephen responded that the area in 1A naturally drains
into 1B. Staff wanted that drainage taken underground. It was at the Town’s request
that it was done this way. Commissioner Sheridan asked about the elevation
differential. Jaison Stephen stated that it ranges from 6-ft. to 2-ft. to zero.
Commissioner Sheridan asked if the Town has an ordinance against lot to lot drainage.
Tom Rutledge, Town Engineer, stated that drainage from one lot to another (one only)
is allowed.
Planning and Zoning Commission July 2, 2007 Page 7 of 30
Brian Carlock stated that even if one of the inlet systems got clogged up they are
designed to pass the water naturally. He stated that if the whole thing plugged up the
side yard swales are designed to carry water between the lots to the street. He stated
that an engineer always has to consider that if you are passing water from uphill to
downhill you have to make sure you design a swale to carry the amount of water that’s
projected from the uphill lot. So there is a safety valve built in.
Chairman Hill stated that there have been situations in the Town where there is lot to lot
drainage but the lots were not developed continuously and one lot sat vacant for a
period of time. Then when the vacant lot was developed, the water discharged in
different directions and at a different quantity than expected. Mr. Carlock stated that
they are grading the entire site for both phases so there shouldn’t be any issues.
Tom Rutledge, Town Engineer, explained that we have encouraged them to do this
mainly because there are walls that are 4-ft. to 6-ft. high. The upper lot will drain onto
the lower lot and if we don’t take this underground there will be water cascading over
the retaining wall which can create a maintenance problem with moss growing on the
wall or the base of the wall staying wet and the lower property owner is receiving the
drainage and there is no way to control it. By putting a system on the uphill side of the
retaining wall and then piping it through (it’s really a relatively small amount of water)
and then penetrate the curb with it, it was the cleanest way we saw to discharge the
water from the upper lot and convey it through to the lower lot.
Commissioner Stephens stated that he has a problem where he lives. There was a
concrete swale in his backyard but before he bought his house the builder took it out.
His neighbors to the east have the concrete swale but the neighbor to the west doesn’t
have the swale. He has a copious amount of water that backs into his yard six to eight
feet. He lives on a short street. He put in a 6-inch drain to take water from the west to
the east to try to cut down the flooding that washes away all of his mulch that stacks up
on his neighbor’s fence to the east. Therefore, he is surprised that the engineers say a
4-inch is suitable. Jaison Stephen responded that they will determine what it needs to
be but they feel it will be a minimal amount of water.
Chairman Hill stated that just this week there was significant flooding to the south of Lot
1 where the Quorum Condominiums are located. The grading that has been done for
the neighborhood just to the north of this area has dirt rising 6-ft. above the existing
ground level. What effect is this grading and elevation change producing in the water
flow through this area and will the resulting berm or retaining wall be stabilized to keep
any soils from washing down into that existing channel? Jaison Stephen stated that
they did a flood study and what they are proposing does not have any effect on any of
the adjacent property owners. The flood study was approved by the Town. The
retaining wall will be structurally sound to withstand storms.
Chairman Hill stated that his concern is whether or not there is an effect on the drainage
channel. It’s not going to divert any water toward the apartments? Jaison Stephen
stated that it will have no effect.
Planning and Zoning Commission July 2, 2007 Page 8 of 30
Commissioner Sheridan asked if there are other items on the plat that need to be
corrected based on Jaison Stephen’s earlier comment that they are doing a final
proofreading of the plat. Commissioner Sheridan stated that this is the first final plat to
come through for this area and he doesn’t want to hear on future plats that additional
checking is needed. He wants to know that it is right and checked and approved before
it gets to the Planning & Zoning Commission.
Mr. Sheridan stated that his biggest concern is traffic. Trophy Club Drive is a 4-lane
boulevard and it is only half built. When he heard that this was coming through he
expected the 50-ft right-of-way to be part of this plat. It wasn’t. Why? Tom Rutledge
explained that the master infrastructure was supposed to be on this agenda and for
consideration by the Planning & Zoning Commission prior to their consideration of these
neighborhood plats. The master infrastructure includes Trophy Club Drive and portions
of Marshall Creek, along with the supporting drainage systems and the water and sewer
mains. Those plats were not ready for this meeting but will be presented to the
Planning & Zoning Commission at the next meeting and then both will go to the Town
Council on July 9, 2007. But, ideally, the master infrastructure, which included the right-
of-way, should have been presented first. On future plats, you will see platted and
identified right-of-way.
Commissioner Sheridan asked about the green belt (Common Area 1). Will that green
belt be part of the street plat? The right-of-way plat? Mr. Rutledge responded yes.
Commissioner Sheridan asked if it would be 5-ft. Jaison Stephen stated that it is
actually 8-ft.
Commissioner Sheridan asked if there will be double sidewalks – one in the right-of-way
common area 1 and one in front of the houses. Tom Rutledge responded that the plans
are consistent with the PD.
Commissioner Sheridan asked if the 10-ft. UE on Lot 1 is existing or by plat? Jaison
Stephen responded that they will dedicate that by plat. He stated that the sewer line is
existing. It was built 10 or 15 years ago but there wasn’t an easement dedicated for
that, so it will be shown on this plat. Commissioner Sheridan asked if a correction is
needed for other plats for the unrecorded sewer line. Tom Rutledge responded that
there are easements being prepared by separate instrument. The Town Attorney is
currently reviewing those.
Commissioner Sheridan discussed the entrances and exits to Trophy Club Drive from
the 14 lots for Phase 1A. He stated that since the median breaks aren’t shown on this
plat it’s hard to understand how the residents are going to enter and exit. Mr. Rutledge
stated that the slip road in front of the lots is one way going north. Commissioner
Sheridan stated that if the residents wanted to go south on Trophy Club Drive, they
would have to exit the slip road going north, and make a U-turn at Meadow Ridge to go
back southbound. If headed southbound on Trophy Club Drive, to get into the
Planning and Zoning Commission July 2, 2007 Page 9 of 30
neighborhood it be necessary to go past Durango to Quorum and make a U-turn.
Jaison Stephen stated that was correct.
Commissioner Sheridan asked if there is anything in this plat that is in the floodplain.
Jaison Stephen responded that there is nothing in this plat that is in the floodplain.
Commissioner Sheridan asked how close the floodplain is to open space 1, Block A.
Jaison Stephen stated that it is south of Quorum. It picks up roughly around Lots 30
and 31 of Phase 1B. Commissioner Sheridan asked if the Town has an ordinance that
requires a finished floor elevation if a lot is near a floodplain. Mr. Rutledge responded
that it is required to set minimum finished flood elevations when there is floodplain on
the property or if there is platting adjacent to it. He stated that they would be required to
dedicate any appropriate easements in that case. Commissioner Sheridan stated that
for Phase 1A it has already been stated that there is no adjacent floodplain and there
isn’t a 6-inch variance from top of floodplain to topo; it’s reasonable. Mr. Stephen
confirmed.
As there were no further questions, the Chairman called for a motion.
Motion: Commissioner Sheridan motioned to approve with the correction noted
earlier by Chairman Hill that the 10-ft. utility easement be aligned property
between lots 10 and 11 of Phase 1A and lots 19 and 20 of Phase 1B.
Second: Stephens
Ayes: Hill, Sanchez, Sheridan, Stephens, Reed, Ashby
Action: 6-0, Approved
Motion carried.
B.3 FP-07-015 FINAL PLAT FOR THE HIGHLANDS AT TROPHY CLUB
NEIGHBORHOODS 3 & 4, PHASE 1B. CONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST
FROM CARTER & BURGESS, INC. ON BEHALF OF K. HOVNANIAN HOMES-
DFW, L.L.C. AND STANDARD PACIFIC OF TEXAS, L.P. TO APPROVE A
FINAL PLAT OF 178 RESIDENTIAL LOTS AND 11 COMMON AREAS, THE
HIGHLANDS AT TROPHY CLUB NEIGHBORHOODS 3 & 4, PHASE 1B
(69.753 ACRES) (LOCATED ON THE EAST SIDE OF TROPHY CLUB DRIVE
ADJACENT TO DURANGO DRIVE AND NORTH OF THE QUORUM
CONDOMINIUM PROPERTY).
Carolyn Huggins distributed a memo from Innovative Transportation Solutions (ITS), the
firm that reviewed the traffic impact analysis (TIA) for The Highlands. ITS reviewed the
plats for Neighborhood 3, Phase 1A and Neighborhoods 3 & 4, Phase 1B and found no
significant traffic impact at this time.
Scott Booth and Dean Stuller, both from ITS, were present. Mr. Booth stated that with
192 single family units, the trip generation over a 24-hour period corresponds to
approximately 1840 trips per day, with 919 outbound and those same vehicles returning
within a 24-hour period. He then reviewed the memo that was distributed to the
Planning and Zoning Commission July 2, 2007 Page 10 of 30
Commissioners. He summarized that Phase 1A and 1B fall within Stage 1 of the
original TIA document prepared by Carter & Burgess.
Chairman Hill asked if the main flow would be headed southbound adding to the jam at
Trophy Lake Drive and Trophy Club Drive that feeds onto 114. Mr. Booth responded
that about 60% of the trips would be going south, but there would be a distribution --
some will travel to the north and some will ultimately exit to go west. He stated that in
the original TIA document, Carter & Burgess prepared a trip distribution which ITS
reviewed and approved.
Chairman Hill stated that in August 2009 some classes will begin at the high school
which will have a significant traffic impact on the town. He asked Mr. Rutledge if there
would be a road leading north along the west side of the high school property which will
cut over to 377. Mr. Rutledge responded that Carter & Burgess, along with the Town of
Roanoke, Marshall Creek, Denton County and Northwest ISD have been meeting
bimonthly to coordinate the alignment of that road, along with cost sharing. The design
of that road should begin shortly.
Commissioner Ashby asked if that road construction will coincide with the construction
of the high school. Mr. Rutledge responded that the road must be completed before the
high school opens. He stated that he has reviewed the plans and plat for the high
school and will be sending comments to their engineer this week which includes the
comment that the high school construction is dependent upon the timing of the road.
Chairman Hill asked if that will result in the realignment of some of the Marshall Creek
intersections in the vicinity of the Roanoke, Marshall Creek, and Trophy Club
boundaries. Mr. Rutledge confirmed.
Commissioner Stephens asked if Parkview would be realigned in this process. Mr.
Rutledge confirmed.
Chairman Hill stated that Lot 58 does not show a side building line. Jaison Stephen
responded that it would be 10-ft.
Chairman Hill stated that common area 9 is not identified as a carryover from the match
line of page 1. He asked that it be corrected.
Chairman Hill stated that Lot 1, Block E, adjacent to common area 9, does not show a
side building line. Jaison Stephen responded that it would be 10-ft.
Chairman Hill stated that in Block F, between Lots 14 & 15 there is a PDE from
Edinburgh Avenue to the golf course. He asked which direction the drainage would go.
Jaison Stephen responded that it would drain to the golf course. Chairman Hill asked if
they have worked that out with the golf course. Mr. Stephen responded that whatever is
naturally going onto the golf course, they are keeping that same pattern.
Planning and Zoning Commission July 2, 2007 Page 11 of 30
Chairman Hill stated that in Block J, where Sterling Avenue intersects Galloway
Boulevard, Lots 1, 2, 16 and 17 have a 10-ft. utility easement that makes a Z-pattern.
Why? Jaison Stephen stated that the franchisee utility company decided on that
design.
Commissioners Stephens, Reed, Ashby and Sanchez had no questions.
Commissioner Sheridan asked if the common areas will be maintained by declaration
and covenants or by the PID. Jaison Stephen stated that they are private by covenant.
As there were no other comments or questions, the Chairman called for a motion.
Motion: Commissioner Sheridan motioned to approve with the corrections that
side building lines be shown for Lot 58 and Lot 1, Block E adjacent to
common area 9; that common area 9 be identified as such on Sheet 2 at
the match line; and that the 10-ft. utility easement be aligned property
between lots 10 and 11 of Phase 1A and lots 19 and 20 of Phase 1B.
Second: Reed
Ayes: Hill, Sanchez, Sheridan, Stephens, Reed, Ashby
Action: 6-0, Approved
Motion carried.
The Commissioners and Innovative Traffic Solutions had a brief Q&A discussion of
traffic issues related to the Highlands Neighborhoods 3 & 4 plats, the master
thoroughfare plats (which will be brought before the Planning & Zoning Commission on
July 2, 2007), as well as the road that will be built by the future high school (that plat will
be seen by the Planning & Zoning Commission later this summer).

FP-07-010 Preliminary and Final Plat Approval for The Highlands at Trophy Club
Master Thoroughfare/Infrastructure.
Consideration of a request from Carter & Burgess, Inc. on behalf of 831 Trophy,
L.P./Centurion Acquisitions, L.P. to approve both Preliminary and Final Platting of
The Highlands at Trophy Club Master Thoroughfare/Infrastructure to be known as
a Final Plat of Trophy Club Drive & Trophy Club Park Drive (23.685 acres).
PURPOSE: Carter & Burgess, Inc. on behalf of 831 Trophy, L.P./Centurion Acquisitions, L.P.
is proposing to plat 23.685 acres to develop the master thoroughfare/infrastructure improvements
for Trophy Club Drive and Trophy Club Park Drive (formerly referred to as Marshall Creek
Road East).

Bedford, TX 76021
HISTORY: Preliminary plat approval of the Master right-of-way (but not the plats) was granted
by the Town Council on December 18, 2006. The Master right-of-way was included as part of
The Highlands at Trophy Club Neighborhoods 1, 2, 5, 6, and 7. On January 30, 2007, application
was made for final platting of the infrastructure/thoroughfare for Trophy Club Drive and
Marshall Creek Road East (now named Trophy Club Park Drive). As final platting would not be
accomplished within 30 days of preliminary platting, a waiver letter, extending the 30-day action
period for preliminary to final platting is provided by Lenart Development Company, L.L.C., the
managing agent for 831 Trophy LP.
STAFF REVIEW: There was comprehensive staff review for the thoroughfare plats. Bi-
monthly meetings also involved the Town of Roanoke, Marshall Creek, Denton County and
Northwest ISD to coordinate the alignment of the road to the High School.
Planning and Zoning Commission July 2, 2007 Page 13 of 30
On the final review of the construction documents by the Town Engineer, the applicant was
asked to provide a letter agreement from the golf course for the sewer through the golf course.
The applicant states that the golf course has agreed verbally with the location of the sanitary
sewer line that crosses their property. Tim Dagg, the golf course director, gave a verbal
agreement to the location across the golf course at an on-site walk-thru of the sanitary sewer
alignment on February 20, 2007. Easements designating this alignment location were prepared
and submitted to the Town Engineer and Town Attorney for review on June 19, 2007. After
Town approval, the documents will be forwarded to the applicant who will forward them to
ClubCorp for approval.
In addition, the Town engineer asked that the sanitary sewer manhole cover be changed from a
standard rim to a “hinged” rim and the applicant indicated that the plans will be updated once the
detail is received from the Town and before final construction sets are published.
These two items do not need to be included in the motion by the Planning & Zoning
Commission, but are stated here for reference and historical purposes.
SUMMARY: The Town Engineer has reviewed the construction documents for The Highlands
Master Improvements and has determined that they are consistent with the Town’s standards and
regulations for development and construction. Landscaping and irrigation plans were also
reviewed by the staff and the Town Engineer and are consistent with the Town’s standards.
Innovative Traffic Solutions (ITS) has reviewed the Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) report
submitted by Carter & Burgess for The Highlands at Trophy Club. ITS’s summary of their
review (memo dated June 18, 2007) is enclosed. Dean Stuller will be in attendance at the July 2,
2007 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting to provide further explanation or answer
questions.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of this request.
