PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION
COMMUNICATION
MEETING DATE: November 13, 2025
FROM: Matt Cox, Director of Community Development
AGENDA ITEM: CASE PD-AMD-25-004, PD-27 Amendment and R-15 Rezoning, The Trails
Conduct a public hearing and consider a recommendation to the Town Council
on a proposed rezoning request made by Foxwood, LLC to amend Planned
Development District 27 (PD-27), to rezone a portion of land currently zoned
R-15 Single-Family District, and to rezone recently annexed property classified
as R-15 Single-Family District to permit development of “The Trails,” an 18-lot
single-family residential subdivision on approximately 7.603 acres, generally
located north of Macquarie Street and Milson's Point Drive within the Town of
Trophy Club, Denton County, Texas. (Matt Cox, Director of Community
Development)
i. Conduct Public Hearing
ii. Consider Recommendation
BACKGROUND/SUMMARY: The subject property consists of two (2) zoning districts within
approximately 7.603 acres. A portion of the property is located in Planned Development
District 27 (PD 27) and zoned for Type 1 and Type 3 lots that require a minimum lot size of
12,000 square feet and 8,400 square feet, respectively. Two (2) other portions of the property
are zoned R-15 Single-Family Residential (R-15) and include an old gas well site (capped
wellheads) and newly annexed territory (approximately 3.182 acres annexed on August 25,
2025) that is automatically classified for R-15 purposes until permanently zoned by the
governing body of the town.
Page 12 of 127
The proposed rezoning will accommodate 18 single-family lots ranging in size from 13,000
square feet to 23,000 square feet. The zoning amendment is in the Neighborhood 7 of PD 27
area which currently allows 222 Type 3 (min. 8,400 SF) lots and 1 Type 1 (min. 12,000 SF) lot. A
portion of PD 27’s Concept Plan illustrating Neighborhood 7 is below identifying yellow lots as
Type 3 lots and the lavender lots as Type 1 lots.
The application for rezoning includes PD standards presented for PD 27 where an amendment
to PD 27 to allow the addition of approximately 4.88 acres to PD 27 and Neighborhood 7 would
be appropriate.
The following is a summary of the amendments to PD 27 (in order per the existing PD 27
ordinance) to rezone and add land to PD 27. Red indicates a change in the existing PD.
1. Exhibit “A” Legal Description shall be revised to add a new Tract F for approximately 4.88
acres recently annexed into the Town Limits and approximately 1.359 acres for the gas well site
15H. Acreages need to be verified by applicant.
2. Exhibit “B” Project Location shall be updated to reflect the additional acreage for
Neighborhood 7 and acreage.
3. Section IV. Lot Type Regulations shall be amended as follows:
i. C. Lot Type 3 shall be amended to create a new “C.1. Lot Type 3A.”
ii. All regulations will be identical to Lot Type 3 with the following exception:
C. 5. Area Regulations:
Garage: May not face front street unless set back at least 25 feet from the front building line;
may not face side street unless set back 50 feet from the side street right-of-way.
iii. Table No. 4-1 Summary of Lot Type Regulations shall be updated as follows:
Page 13 of 127
4. Section V. Table No. 5-1 shall be amended as follows:
i. Staff recommend the amendment include a new “Type 3A Lot” that identifies the
development standards to accommodate the development.
5. Section V. Neighborhood Regulations shall be amended as follows:
6. Section VI. Development and Design Standards is proposed to be amended as follows:
F. Residential Architectural Standards
1. Gifts to the street
6:12 Primary roof pitch or greater for Lot Type 3A only.
Applicant’s engineer shall state the development will comply with Section VI. Development and
Design Standards in PD 27. Particularly, A. 4. Street Types and Table No. 6-1 and C. Screening
and Fences, particularly adjacency to open space, floodplain, flowage easement, etc.
Page 14 of 127
Any exceptions to the regulations need to be addressed in the rezoning application.
7. Section VII. Park land Open Space Requirements shall be amended as follows:
“The Developer for the new portion of Neighborhood 7 shall construct a trail system consisting
of an eight (8) foot trailer pathway through the flowage easement that connects the proposed
park sites. Where the trail utilizes sidewalks within the development, the sidewalk pathway
shall be at least six (6) feet wide. A Pathway Plan is included in Exhibit B.”
Staff did not receive an exhibit titled Exhibit B Pathway Plan. The original PD 27 Exhibit “F” –
Pathway Plan was provided, but it did not include additional trail information. PD 27’s Exhibit
“B” – Pathway Plan locations do not reflect what is existing. At some point, the pathway
alignment deviated from its original plan.
Staff recommends the Exhibit “F” in the PD 27 ordinance be updated to reflect the trail
alignment. Additionally, a new Exhibit “G” – Pathway Detail Plan proposed Lots 1X and 21X is
recommended to be provided and included in the amended PD.
It is important to note that a recent land sale included property south and west of the
proposed rezoning area. The Town does not currently hold a pedestrian and bike trail access
easement on the property to facilitate a connection to Lot 21X.
8. Concept Plan
An exhibit titled Development Plan (Attachment 3) for the rezoning area and layout for the
street and lot pattern has been provided and staff recommend it be re-titled as the Concept
Plan. A PD Site Plan is required prior to construction and the elements included in the exhibit
submitted do not meet the requirements of a PD Site Plan.
Proposed Lot 1X
This lot will provide an improved trail connection to the east. “Reflective Lights” are identified
on the Concept Plan. However, trail specifications have not been provided. The lot shall include
a label for a pedestrian and bike trail access easement for the Town’s trail. Additionally, the
neighborhood cluster mailbox will be located on Lot 1X and accessed by vehicles. Lot 1X will be
owned and maintained by the Homeowners’ Association for the community.
Staff recommends the trail surface specification be provided as well as details on how it will
connect to the existing trail.
Proposed Lot 11X
The lot will accommodate a private lift station that will be owned and maintained by the
Homeowners’ Association for the community. The applicant has been working with The Trophy
Club Municipal Utility District No. 1 for service.
Staff recommends the lift station be screened with a solid masonry wall and solid metal gate
requirements and specifications be added to the proposed PD.
Page 15 of 127
Proposed Lot 21X
Lot 21X will be owned and maintained by the Homeowners Association and will include the
community’s monument signage and trail. No signage details have been provided, and it is
recommended the applicant provide minimum height, length, and width dimensions.
Lot 21X shall include a label for a pedestrian and bike trail access easement for the Town’s trail.
The landowner has sold off a portion of the property south and west of Lot 21X and the Town
does not have a pedestrian access easement for the trail. There have been questions regarding
Denton Central Appraisal District graphic ownership information in this area and what was
owned by the landowner. Title surveys provided by the applicant’s consultant indicate Lot 21X
area is owned by the applicant.
9. Overlength Cul-de-sac
The applicant did not include an allowance for the cul-de-sac length in the PD standards. As
proposed, the PD Concept Plan illustrates an overlength cul-de-sac measurement of
approximately 1,060 feet. Per the Subdivision Ordinance, cul-de-sacs are limited to a maximum
length of 600 feet and are measured from the nearest street intersection to the center of the
bulb. In this case, the measurement begins at the intersection of Milson’s Point Drive and
Macquarie Street and ends at the terminus of the bulb in the proposed layout. Staff
recommend the over-length cul-de-sac allowance of 1,060 feet be added to the amendment.
PD 27 already incorporates several Subdivision Ordinance provisions and applicable design
standards.
Other Items to be addressed in the civil engineering plan and platting phases
The paving and right-of-way transition from the existing cul-de-sac bulb to the roadway
extension will be evaluated during the platting and civil construction plan phase. Any variances
to the Subdivision Ordinance and Engineering Design Standards will be processed with the plat
applications.
There will be a number of easements to be abandoned during the platting process. For
example, right-of-way and access easements and pedestrian and bike trail and bike easements.
Existing structures will need to be removed prior to Final Plat approval.
The capped gas wellheads (currently in the side yard on Lot 19) shall be identified and labeled
per the Texas Railroad Commission’s ID numbers on the civil construction plan.
BOARD REVIEW/CITIZEN FEEDBACK: Notice of the public hearing was distributed as required
by The Town of Trophy Club Zoning Ordinance and State Law. At the time of agenda packet
publication, staff had not received any letters in support or in opposition to the zoning change
request.

a. Building Walls and Roofs
1) An expression line shall delineate divisions between floors
of all buildings, and a cornice shall delineate the tops of
facades that do not utilize a pitched roof.
2) All buildings shall be designed such that no mechanical
equipment (HVAC, etc.) and satellite dishes are visible
from the public right-of-way or open space, whether the
equipment is located on the ground, exterior walls or the
roof. To screen rooftop mechanical equipment, other
appurtenances, and flat or built-up roofs, all structures
having a 6,000 square feet or less footprint shall be
constructed with a pitched roof. Those structures having a
footprint greater than 6,000 square feet shall be

other similar surface characteristics to enhance the
façade on at least twenty percent (20%) of each
façade.
iii. Side facades and rear facades shall be of finished
quality and of the same color and materials that
blend with the front of the building. Rear facades
may be painted tilt-wall or painted block matching
the same color of the rest of the building if the rear

interesting street experience; although the utilization of
common architectural elements shall be considered to
facilitate a certain level of functional continuity.
c. Building Orientation and Pedestrian Site Design:
1) Any building (excluding parking garages and other
accessory buildings) viewed from a public right-of-way or
public open space shall either face such right-of-way or
open space, or shall have a façade facing such area in
keeping with the character of the front façade, including
the utilization of similar fenestration and materials.
2) Pedestrian Elements
To improve the walkability and access of commercial and
retail areas, the following are encouraged in the site design
of a project:

tree for every 10,000 square feet of gross building
area consistent with the Tree List as set forth in
Section VI. Small ornamental trees are permitted
on a ratio of 4 to 1 instead of 3.0 inch caliper shade
trees. This is intended to enhance the pedestrian
experience in front of larger buildings and to break
up large impervious surfaces between parking
areas and the building. Foundation planting trees
shall be planted within approximately 30 feet of the
front façade and are required in addition to any
street trees required herein. Tree grates shall be
utilized for trees planted less than four (4) feet back
of curb. Tree spacing shall not impede sign
visibility or pedestrian safety but shall be placed so
as to provide an effective shade environment in
front of the building.

to any residential lot, unless wholly within an
enclosed building.
v. Screening materials shall be comprised of a wall
that has a similar finish to the primary structure, or
a combination of trees and shrubs that will result in
solid screening within 2 years.
vi. However, when adjacent to a residentially zoned
district a screening wall with landscaping shall be
used.
2. Trash/Recycling Receptacles:
i. Commercial trash/recycling containers shall be
located on the side or rear of the building and
screened from public view.
ii. Such containers shall be located at least 50’ away
from adjacent residential property lines.
iii. Such containers shall be screened on 4 sides,
using an enclosure that is 7’ tall or of a height that
is a minimum of 1’ above the top of the container,
whichever is taller. Screening shall be comprised of
brick, stone, reinforced concrete, or other similar
masonry materials that have a similar finish to the
primary finish; and all fence posts shall be rust-
protected metal, concrete based masonry or
concrete pillars.
43
Page 88 of 127
iv. 6” concrete filled steel pipes shall be located to
protect the enclosure from truck operations.

painted canvas; paint; engraving directly on façade
surface; and brick or stone for monument signs.
4) Wall Signs:
i. One and a half (1.5) square feet of signage is
permitted for each linear foot of the primary facade
of the building, excluding wing walls. (E.g. a 100’
long building façade would allow for 150 square
feet of wall sign area on the building.)
ii. Only one building façade with a primary entrance
may be used to calculate wall signage.
iii. Wall signs may be placed on any face of the
building except if adjacent to a residential lot.

K. RESTAURANT DESIGN GUIDELINES – VILLAGE CENTER
PURPOSE
The Highlands at Trophy Club has many desirable aesthetic qualities and neighborhoods with
unique character. These attributes are closely guarded and nurtured to protect the community
and ensure design excellence. The Restaurant Design Guidelines – Village Center is intended to
be responsive to developers while promoting good design. These guidelines are applicable to all
restaurant types as they are structured to respond to the varying conditions and constraints
inherent to individual sites within Village Center.
DESIGN GUIDELINES
These guidelines are intended to address exterior elements of restaurant design to help promote
cohesive design and enable comprehensive review of all new buildings. All proposals should be
in accordance with the zoning ordinance and PD-27 architectural and site design standards, as
well as adhere to the requirements stated in this guideline in the following five areas: Site
Design, Architecture, Landscape Design, Lighting, and Signage/Corporate Identification.
Site Design
The components of a restaurant to be considered in site design include, but are not limited to:
Primary structure, entry and associated outdoor waiting area
Outdoor dining
Service, utility infrastructure, refuse and storage area
Pedestrian and vehicular circulation systems, and parking
Drive through windows and associated equipment and stacking lanes
Primary Structure, Entry and Associated Outdoor Waiting Area: All development proposals
should show evidence of coordination with the site plan requirements as shown in the Town of
Trophy Club Zoning Ordinance, Chapter 13, Article V, Supplementary District Regulations and
the Architectural and Site Design Standards required in PD-27, Village Center. Development
proposals should show evidence of coordination with contextual influences of neighboring
properties in regard to building setbacks, orientation, and relationship of structures to each other
and to the street. The layout of the site should respect and build upon the arrangement of
buildings, open spaces and landscape elements of adjacent sites.
Where a common setback from the street is evident, new buildings should respect the
established setback. Variation is allowed if the resulting arrangement of buildings defines a
useful public space such as a plaza or open space.
Building entries should be convenient to parking, but also seek and develop shared vehicular
access points with adjoining sites where feasible, and seek and develop pedestrian linkages
between adjacent properties.
Outdoor Dining: Outdoor dining areas are encouraged in Tract 2, oriented toward Northwest
Park. Outdoor dining areas should be located away from neighboring residential areas and other
sensitive uses.
46
Page 91 of 127
Service, Utility Infrastructure, and Refuse Area:
The clustering of service and refuse areas is encouraged where adjacency of similar uses
would allow such areas.
Service areas and refuse enclosures should be screened from public view and screened from
adjacent sites.
Identify the location of utility infrastructure facilities early in the design process. When
possible, locate utility cabinets, switching cabinets, transformers, cable boxes,
communications infrastructure, backflow preventors, irrigation control boxes and other
similar above ground utilities in locations that do not conflict with featured views, outdoor
dining areas and circulation patterns. Utility cabinets should not be located within parking
lot landscape islands or in highly visible locations within the right-of-way. Utilities should
be screened to the extent allowable by operation requirements.
Pedestrian and Vehicular Circulation Systems, and Parking: Site design shall accommodate a
logical and safe vehicular and pedestrian circulation pattern that minimizes conflicts. Links for
pedestrians should be direct and avoid circuitous routes that are not easily understood.
Drive Through Windows and Associated Equipment and Stacking Lanes:
Drive-through windows, menu boards and associated stacking lanes should be carefully
located to minimize the impacts on neighboring residential areas and should be adequately
screened from the street, from public view, and from the view of adjacent sites.
Drive-through elements should be architecturally integrated into the building, rather than
appearing to be applied or “stuck on” to the building.
Drive-through window circulation shall provide a minimum stacking distance of 100 feet to
provide adequate length of stacking that does not interfere with the movement of traffic or
pedestrians on or off-site.
A facility with a separate ordering point and pick-up window shall provide stacking space for
at least three (3) vehicles in advance of each ordering point and stacking space for at least
two (2) vehicles between each ordering point and pick-up window.
Entrances to drive-up lanes shall be at least 50 feet from driveways entering a public street.
The minimum width of each drive-through lane shall be 12 feet. The entrance to the lane and
the direction of traffic flow shall be clearly designated by signs, or pavement marking, or
raised curbs.
When residential adjacency exists, drive-through windows are not permitted.
Architecture
Each building will be evaluated with regard to the guidelines below to achieve a final building of
good proportion and scale.
Buildings that derive their image predominantly from applied treatments that express
corporate identity are discouraged. A building should conform to the Village Center
Architectural and Site Design Standards first.
Awnings may be used on street level windows and doors and should be functional and
provide maximum shade to the window area. Awnings are to be made of predominately
natural or natural-appearing fabric or canopies. Awnings should not be internally lit. The
bottom of an awning must be placed below the top of the window, but above the door.
47
Page 92 of 127
If a tract is divided into pad sites that will support more than one restaurant, the restaurants
should share similar design characteristics and design vocabulary. Precise replication is not
necessary or desirable, but consideration should be given to similar color, material, and
texture found within the architecture of the buildings.
Shading for outdoor dining should be architecturally integrated with the main structure.
Landscape Design
The landscape design of the site should contribute to the overall appearance and function of the
site and streetscape.
Landscape should blend with the dominant existing or planned streetscape and character of
the area.
Landscaping should be provided at the base of buildings to anchor them to the surrounding
environment and soften the structure. In-ground landscaping should comprise the majority of
the landscaping requirement and be maximized to provide shade and to reduce heat build-up
and glare. Raised planters are acceptable when designed to accentuate the architecture and/or
create pedestrian seating areas.
Landscaping should be placed to maximize screening from neighboring residential areas.
Dense landscaping and architectural treatments should be used in combination to screen
unattractive views and features such as storage areas, trash enclosures, utility cabinets, and
other similar elements.
The use of mature trees is encouraged to provide an immediate impact especially when used
in buffering adjacent uses.
Proper maintenance and timely replacement of plant material is expected and required by
ordinance.
Lighting
Site lighting and architectural lighting of restaurants should provide the user with illumination
levels appropriate for the designed activity (i.e., parking, walking, outdoor dining). Illumination
levels should also be reasonably uniform throughout the site and absent of glare.
A lighting design and plan is required. The lighting plan must include, but is not limited to:
type of lighting equipment, lamp source and wattage, fixture locations, mounting height,
shielding, mounting details, photometric data including point-by-point horizontal
illuminance at ground level and uniformity ration, etc. (per consultant). All illumination of
the site, including architectural lighting, should be taken into account in the lighting plan.
Avoid competing light levels and maintain balanced light levels on-site and between
adjacent properties. The exterior lighting design must take into account the background
lighting levels, lighting from other sources, and characteristics of the surrounding area.
Signage/Corporate Identification
Restaurant signage plans should reflect a balance between providing adequate signage for
business identification while protecting the visual aesthetics of Trophy Club’s streetscapes.
Treatments used to achieve business identity such as awnings, paint, or signage should be
used judiciously and should not be the dominant architectural feature.
All signage should be architecturally integrated with their surroundings in terms of size,
shape, color, texture, and lighting so as to not visually compete with the architectural of the
48
Page 93 of 127
building and site. Signs should be integrated such that they become a natural part of the
building façade.
When multiple restaurants share one site, signs should be integrated as one unit to create
shared identity for the property to the extent permitted by the ordinance or be located and/or
designed as a package.
Building design should anticipate signage, providing logical sign areas and allowing
flexibility for new users (if applicable).
Repetitious signage information on the same building façade should be avoided.
Signs composed of individual letters are encouraged. Back lit or indirectly lit individual
letters are generally desirable. Visible raceways and transformers for individual letters are
discouraged.
