CITIZEN PRESENTATIONS
This is an opportunity for citizens to address the Council on any matter whether or not it is posted on the agenda.
The Council is not permitted to take action on or discuss any presentations made to the Council at this time
concerning an item not listed on the agenda. The Council will hear presentations on specific agenda items prior to
the Council addressing those items. You may speak up to four (4) minutes or the time limit determined by the
Mayor or presiding officer. To speak during this item you must complete the Speaker's form that includes the
topic(s)of your statement. Topics of presentation should be limited to matters over which the Council has authority.
Janet Lamont, 15 Avalon Drive, stated that on behalf of the Trophy Club election poll workers, she thanked several
individuals for their work and efforts that helped ensure a smooth November 6th Election. She recognized the
following: City Secretary April Hill with the City of Roanoke for ensuring the setup and the opening and closing
during early voting; the City of Roanoke Public Library for sharing their facility during early voting; Medlin Middle
School for sharing their facility on Election Day; Principal Paige Cantrell and Office Manager Monica McDonald with
Medlin Middle School for their hospitality; and Town Staff(Information Services Manager Pastor, Town Manager
Class, Town Secretary Fimbres, Police Chief Arata, and Fire Chief Carroll) for helping with the coordination. She
remarked that this served as a historical election with their election poll workers processing 10,450 voters and that
over 5,850 Trophy Club residents had voted in the county.
Tom Mills, 113 Creek Courts Drive,stated that he has been a heavy user of the features at Trophy Club Park for the
past 32 years. For the last nine years, he has been the sole maintainer of the Trophy Club Park trail system and the
Parks and Recreation Department mows the area. He spoke about the bike trails verses horse trails. He explained
that around Lake Grapevine there were three bike trail systems by Knob Hill, Rock Ledge, and Horse Shoe and that
there were no entry fees to access the bike trail systems. There was one horse trail system by Cross Timbers that
joined the Walnut Grove trail and there was no user fee from the east end. The Trophy Club Park entry fee was$3
per horse to enter the main gate. Approximately$10,000 was collected per year for horse entries and only$2,000
was budgeted for non-motorized trail maintenance. Replacing horse trails with bike trails would eliminate this
source of income. The bike and horse trails have been separated for safety reasons. He mentioned that in the
Dallas area, citations have been issued for horse riders when found on bike trails and he hoped the same would
happen when bikers were found on horse trails. Horseback riders have described near death experiences when
silent bike riders startle their horses, especially when it involves a child or a less experienced rider. In closing, he
hoped to see this topic be taken serious.
Donald Edwards, 2704 Cromwell Court, spoke against a recent social media occurrence for the removal of Council
Member Jensen. He stated that Council Member Jensen has done a great job with educating and connecting with
Town residents. After watching Council Member Jensen's passion and talents, it has inspired him to get involved
more. It would be a great disservice to the residents if he were removed.
Brandon Blake,2 Palmetto Court, echoed what Mr. Edwards spoke about. He did not think the removal of Council
Member Jensen was necessary due to some divisiveness and a post on Facebook. He believed this was an easy
issue to get past.
David Stout, 661 Sheldon Drive, reaffirmed what Mr. Edwards and Mr. Blake stated. He commented that Council
Member Jensen won by a land slide and stated that he has done an amazing job supporting the Town. He
completely disagreed with any conversation to remove him. He did not agree with the things that have transpired
over the recent weeks and the way the Town has represented itself. He commented that for future elections, it
should be noted who truly represents the Town.

2. Receive Town Council Liaison update;discussion of same(H.Fimbres):
*Animal Shelter Advisory Board,October 29,2018
Council Liaison-Mayor Pro Tem Shaffner
Mayor Pro Tem Shoffner advised that recently the Chairperson of the Animal Shelter Advisory Board participated
in a dog rescue that did not have tags. He reiterated that the Town ordinance still required a person to place and
maintain a collar on an animal with a current identification tag with the owner's information and a rabies
vaccination tag. The Council had previously eliminated the requirement to register a dog with the Town and the
associated fee. Since then, the Animal Control and Police Department initiated a voluntarily registration called
Register Rover, which was free of charge and would help assist the return of lost dogs. Every police officer has
access to the database and this information would assist with a quicker return of the dog to its owner.
Additionally, he encouraged residents to register their dogs and requested that Staff implement an online
registration on the upcoming new Town website to help make it easier for residents.

REGULAR SESSION
8. Case RP-18-001(The Highlands, Lot 22R)
A) Conduct a Public Hearing regarding a request for a replat for the purpose of combining two commonly
owned properties into one lot containing approximately 0.29 acres of land and generally located west
of Highlands Court and approximately 150 feet north of Morgan Lane(L. Payne).
Mayor Sanders opened the public hearing at 7:22 p.m.
Town Planner Payne stated that the purpose of this item was to consider a replat for Highlands Court. The
strategic link was Nature & Beautification—Maintain Town assets, services, and codes of ordinances that preserve
the natural beauty of the Town. Earlier this year, Council granted the request to transfer Town owned property
that sits between Gas Well Site No. 2-H and Lot 22 on Highlands Court to the homeowner because the land was
not valuable to the Town. The associated deed has been filed with Denton County and the applicants plan to fence
in the newly acquired land to provide for a larger backyard. The proposed replat conforms to the Town's
Subdivision Regulations. Additionally, the Planning and Zoning (P&Z) Commission considered this case on
November 1, 2018 and unanimously recommended approval of the replat and Staff recommends approval of the
replat.
Guy and Megan Grivas,applicants and property owners,were available for questions.
Mayor Sanders closed the public hearing and reconvened into Regular Session at 7:24 p.m.

B) Consider and take appropriate action regarding a request for a replat for the purpose of combining two
commonly owned properties into one lot containing approximately 0.29 acres of land and generally
located west of Highlands Court and approximately 150 feet north of Morgan Lane(L.Payne).
Motion:
Motion made by Council Member Rowe, seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Shoffner, to approve Case RP-18-001 (The
Highlands, Lot 22R), a request for a replat for the purpose of combining two commonly owned properties into one
lot containing approximately 0.29 acres of land and generally located west of Highlands Court and approximately
150 feet north of Morgan Lane.
Motion carried unanimously 6-0-0.
9. Case RP-18-002(Oak Hill,Lots 63R&64R)
A) Conduct a Public Hearing regarding a request for a replat for the purpose of approving setbacks,
vacating an easement, and relocating a property line between two commonly owned lots containing
approximately 0.62 acres of land and generally located northeast of Hilltop and approximately 170 feet
north of Oak Hill Drive(L. Payne).
Mayor Sanders opened the public hearing at 7:25 p.m.
Town Planner Payne stated that the purpose of this item was to consider a replat for Hilltop. The strategic link was
Nature & Beautification — Maintain Town assets, services, and codes of ordinances that preserve the natural
beauty of the Town. The applicant was proposing to move the common lot line of Lot 63 and Lot 64 out from
under the existing house that sits upon it in order for Lot 63 to gain compliance with the code while keeping the
minimum lot size for both lots intact. The proposal included an abandonment of the 10 foot drainage and utility
easement that was centered on the current common lot line and establishes a 10 foot drainage and utility
easement on the new lot line. All signatures from the appropriate utility entities have been obtained.
Confirmation of lot line classifications was requested due to the unusually shaped lots and the placement of the
existing house. The applicant would like to consider the northern property lines as side property lines and the
eastern property line as a rear property line, which would confirm the house was in compliance with the setbacks.
The proposed replat conforms to the Town's Subdivision Regulations. Additionally, the P&Z Commission
considered this case on November 1, 2018 and recommended approval of the replat and Staff recommends
approval of the replat.
Ron Houston,applicant and owner,was available for questions.
Worth Blake, 244 Oak Hill Drive, Lot 46, stated that he has lived at his residency for almost 29 years. He has been
very happy with their location except he has been dealing with a drainage issue. He has discussed this matter at
the P&Z Commission meeting and with Mr. Houston. The homes on Hilltop were elevated higher and abutted their
homes on Oak Hill Drive; therefore the residents on Oak Hill Drive were receiving their water down flow. There
were six residents that lived near the subject property who were experiencing this issue. He was hopeful that
there was a way for the property owner or for the Town to install a storm drainage line from Lot 44 to the north to
help with the water flow. The neighbors have experienced damage to their fences,trees, shrubs,foundation, and
outdoor furniture.
Eric Orson, 246 Oak Hill Drive, Lot 45, agreed with Mr. Blake and stated that there has been significant flooding
over the years. He has had drainage systems installed twice, which was a high expense, and he noted that Lot 65
was the cause of his drainage issues. He supported installing some sort of drainage solution due to the damage
that has occurred.
Mayor Sanders closed the public hearing and reconvened into Regular Session at 7:33 p.m.

B) Consider and take appropriate action regarding a request for a replat for the purpose of approving
setbacks, vacating an easement, and relocating a property line between two commonly owned lots
containing approximately 0.62 acres of land and generally located northeast of Hilltop and
approximately 170 feet north of Oak Hill Drive(L. Payne).
Council Member Rowe noted that this particular neighborhood was developed in the late 1970's. He inquired
when someone has a drainage issue and they suspected that the drainage issue was coming from an adjacent
neighbor,what was the proper method to determine whether or not an easement had been altered in such a way
that it was causing a downstream issue onto another property. Director of Community Development Uzee
responded that the appropriate method would be to contact Staff to perform an initial review of swales, berms,
and flowage patterns. After an initial review, Staff may recommend that the property owner seek an engineer to
take corrective action on their own property. In this instance there was not much drainage criteria in the 1970's.
Council Member Rowe stated that there was the potential for a new structure to be built on Lot 64. He asked if
current day standards would be applied for the new structure, such as drainage plan requirements. Director of
Community Development Uzee responded that current standards would be applied and he explained that they
would be required to show what was being done to the drainage. Staff would compare the proposed drainage to
maps that were designed at the time the plat was filed. The majority of the time,the builder has the foresight to
determine the best solution. Once a determination has been made a final inspection would be performed later for
verification.
Council Member Rowe inquired if Staff was confident in the process in place, as described, to ensure that the
current conditions would be taken into account when and if plans were submitted for a new structure. Director of
Community Development Uzee confirmed that he was confident in the process.
Council Member Lamont asked where the French drain on Lot 63 was going. Director of Community Development
Uzee responded that it appeared to be coming off Lot 63 to the back of Lot 50. He spoke to the prospective
purchaser of Lot 64 and advised that the pipe should be removed, unless it was determined why the pipe was
installed.
Council Member Lamont inquired if a permit was required to install a French drain. Director of Community
Development Uzee responded that no permit was required.
Council Member Lamont asked if the retaining wall was leaning towards the erosion. Director of Community
Development Uzee responded that the wall currently stands the way it was built. There was a portion that was
cracking but it was not a structural failure and an engineer had made repairs to it.
Mayor Sanders inquired if Staff had reviewed the possible installation of a storm sewer as mentioned by property
owners of Lot 45 and 46, or would Lot 64 be required to drain towards the street when they submitted for a
permit. Director of Community Development Uzee responded that requiring drainage toward the street would
depend on the natural slope of the property and what was intended at the time of development.
Mayor Sanders requested that Staff review if there was a Town responsibility to install a storm sewer during the
process of Lot 64 constructing a structure.
Council Member Jensen thanked Town Planner Payne for her presentation. Additionally, he inquired if Mr. Blake
and Mr. Orson approved of what has been presented, what the P&Z Commission passed, and if they desired the
Council to approve the case.
Mr. Blake stated that they were not opposed to the development, but they did want them to consider paying to
have the drainage taken care of.
Council Member Jensen asked if the P&Z Commission addressed that specifically. Director of Community
Development Uzee responded that the Commission referred them to seek input from the Council. He commented
that the drainage was not specifically addressed in a Staff recommendation.
Town Council Minutes November 13,2018 Page 5 of 9
Mayor Sanders inquired if Lot 64 would be required to submit a drainage plan with their construction plans.
Director of Community Development Uzee responded that was correct.
Motion:
Motion made by Council Member Rowe, seconded by Council Member Jensen, to approve Case RP-18-002 (Oak
Hill, Lots 63R & 64R), a request for a replat for the purpose of approving setbacks, vacating an easement, and
relocating a property line between two commonly owned lots containing approximately 0.62 acres of land and
generally located northeast of Hilltop and approximately 170 feet north of Oak Hill Drive.
Motion carried unanimously 6-0-0.
10. Referred Agenda Item-Case O-AMD-17-004(Artificial Turf)
Consider and take appropriate action regarding an Ordinance for a Town-initiated request to amend
Landscaping Regulations in Section 14.02.352(d)(5) and Section 14.02.352(g)(5) of the Trophy Club Code of
Ordinances to allow artificial turf on residentially zoned properties(T.Uzee).
(Town Secretary Note: The Main Motion as Amended from the October 23,2018 Council meeting remained on the
floor. Main Motion as Amended, to approve Ordinance No. 2018-27 P&Z, a Town-initiated request to amend
Landscaping Regulations in Section 14.02.352(d)(5) and Section 14.02.352(g)(5) of the Trophy Club Code of
Ordinances to allow artificial turf on residentially zoned properties,as presented by Staff and not incorporate any of
the P&Z Commission's recommendations;and to include that synthetic turf shall 1)simulate the appearance of live
turf, organic turf, grass, sod, or a lawn, 2)be a type known as cut pile infill with pile fibers with a minimum height
on 1.75 inches 3)be affixed to a permanent backing;4)have a minimum of an eight year no fade warranty;and 5)
synthetic turf shall be maintained in green fadeless condition and free of weeds, debris, tears, holes, and
impressions.)
Director of Community Development Uzee advised that this item was referred at the October 23, 2018 Council
meeting. The strategic link was Nature& Beautification—Maintain Town assets,services,and codes of ordinances
that preserve the natural beauty of the Town. Based on the last meeting, Staff added information related to the
material and appearance,that a permit would need to be obtained along with requirements to assist with possible
future code issues, and the submission of a grading plan. Staff recommended approval of the ordinance as
presented.
Council Member Rowe inquired about placing a minimum lot coverage percentage to trigger when a permit would
be required. He provided an example that someone may want to install a putting green in their backyard. Director
of Community Development Uzee responded that as the Building Official,a permit would be at his discretion and a
putting green was not considered landscaping. He mentioned that a recent trend was to install artificial turf
between stepping stones around swimming pools while the rest of the yard remained natural; therefore in his
opinion he did not view that scenario as landscaping and necessitating the artificial turf requirements.
Council Member Lamont asked if the terms "easement" and "right-of-way" should be inserted into the portion of
the ordinance regarding damage. Director of Community Development Uzee responded that this was a product
that would be simple enough to roll out of the way and that he didn't believe that it would be an issue. He
cautioned adding the term "right-of-way"because it may limit the ability for a contractor to make certain repairs if
they needed to go beyond that line.
Council Member Jensen inquired if the language noted in red were changes since the last Council meeting.
Director of Community Development Uzee responded that was correct.
Council Member Jensen advised that there was a Main Motion as Amended on the floor from the October 23,
2018 Council meeting.
Substitute Motion:
Substitute Motion made by Council Member Jensen, seconded by Council Member Rowe, to approve Ordinance
No. 2018-27 P&Z as presented by Staff.
Town Council Minutes November 13,2018 Page 6 of 9
Mayor Sanders commented that the Substitute Motion would replace the Main Motion as Amended that was on
the floor.
Council Member Jensen clarified that the Substitute Motion was to approve the Ordinance as it was presented in
the agenda packet.
Motion to Amend:
Motion to Amend made by Mayor Pro Tern Shoffner, seconded by Council Member Rowe,to direct Town Staff to
process and approve all pending permits being held up due to the prohibition of synthetic turf by the close of
business tomorrow evening.
Mayor Pro Tern Shoffner commented that there were three pending permits that were open, one of which has
been open for over a year.
Sue Harper, 16 Fair Green Drive,stated that she could see residents installing a putting green in their backyards or
for a child's play area. She did not believe that artificial turf would look good in the front or side yards. She felt
that it was basically a rug that would have to be maintained and cleaned with an average life span of eight years.
She was concerned who would be responsible when it started to look bad. It was not environmentally friendly
because it would end up in a land fill. She requested to keep the integrity and the aesthetic appeal of the Town
and consider limiting artificial turf to backyards and being strict with code enforcement.
The vote for the Motion to Amend was taken, to direct Town Staff to process and approve all pending permits
being held up due to the prohibition of synthetic turf by the close of business tomorrow evening.
Motion to Amend carried 5-1-0,with Mayor Pro Tern Shoffner and Council Members Fleury,Jensen, Rowe,and
Lamont voting for and with Mayor Sanders voting against.
The vote for the Substitute Motion as Amended was taken,to approve Ordinance No. 2018-27 P&Z as presented
by Staff; and to direct Town Staff to process and approve all pending permits being held up due to the prohibition
of synthetic turf by the close of business tomorrow evening.
Substitute Motion as Amended carried unanimously 6-0-0.
11. Discussion of and take appropriate action regarding setting a date for the 2019 Council Retreat and discuss
potential agenda items(T.Class).
Town Manager Class advised that Staff proposed to hold the Council Retreat on January 26,2019.
Council Member Jensen preferred to hold the Retreat the week before,January 19,2019.
Council Members Rowe and Lamont could do either date.
Town Manager Class stated that the following items would potentially be discussed at the Retreat: High Level
Financial Overview;Town's Long Term Financial Outlook; Staff Compensation and Personnel Issues;Capital Budget
Items; and the Town Manager, Town Attorney and Town Secretary Quarterly Goals and Objectives and Contract
Reviews.
Council Member Jensen requested to add an item to address the 2019 Council Meeting calendar. He inquired if
Council would do the standard two meetings in January or one meeting since the Retreat would be held the same
month.
Council Member Rowe commented that the second meeting in January 2018 had been canceled; therefore the
January 22, 2019 Council meeting could potentially be canceled. Additionally, he requested to have an item added
to the Retreat agenda to discuss Capital Improvement Projects.
Town Council Minutes November 13,2018 Page 7 of 9
Town Manager Class remarked that there would be one regular Council meeting and one Council Retreat in
January 2019.
12. Discussion of items for Future Agendas to include agenda items for consideration on the December 11,2018
Council agenda and items from the Town Council Future Agenda Items list(H. Fimbres).
This item allows Council to request the placement of items on upcoming agendas when the topic of discussion
requires research and review that cannot be accomplished in the time frame between regular Council meetings.
However, a Council Member may request that an item be placed on the next regularly scheduled meeting without
first placing that item on the Future Agenda Items list. All requests for agenda items must comply with Charter
requirements.
Council Member Jensen requested to remove Item No. 12 from the Town Council Future Agenda Items list:

9/25/2018)(1-January 8, 2019)

Appeal cases had been ruled on.
Town Attorney Dodd responded that he would send out a brief to Council specific to this item.
