Calaway Survey, Abstract No. 272; T. Kelly Survey, Abstract No. 704, and J. Henry Survey, Abstract No. 529. APPLICANT/DEVELOPER INFORMATION: Applicant: MJ Thomas Engineering, LLC 4150 International Plaza, Suite 600 Fort Worth, Texas 76109 Owner: Northwest Independent School District PO Box 77070 Fort Worth, Texas 76177 EXISTING CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY: The property consists of approximately 92.7 acres and is currently vacant, undeveloped land, of which three sides border the Town’s City Limit. The property is under single ownership. ADJACENT ZONING/EXISTING LAND USES: North: Outside City Limits (ETJ) / Vacant, undeveloped land (Army Corp of Engineers property) South: Marshall Creek Road (East) / Medlin Middle School; Parkview Drive and PD-27, The Highland at Trophy Club. East: Outside City Limits (ETJ) / Vacant, undeveloped land (Army Corp of Engineers property); PD-27, The Highlands at Trophy Club West: Outside City Limits (Marshall Creek) Planning & Zoning Commission 1 February 2007 Page 5 of 28 CASE ANALYSIS: Northwest Independent School District is seeking to develop an approximate 97.2 acre tract of land for the location of the District’s second high school. When the district initially met with the Planning Department, a change in zoning from MH and R-12 to NS was originally proposed. However, upon further discussion of the high school’s operating needs, staff recommended the site be rezoned to PD. All regulations not specifically addressed in PD-28 will fall under the Town’s currently adopted codes. Proposed PD-27 consists of several uses specific to a high school site. Athletic Fields, Stadium, Auditorium, Gyms Bldg for auxiliary uses on HS site Children’s Day Care Center & Kindergarten Equestrian facilities Park, Playground, Play lots, Related Facilities Private Stable Public Safety Facilities Recreational School Social, Recreational, Assembly Buildings Storage (auxiliary uses for HS site) Swimming Pool Tennis, Handball, Racquet Ball Clubs Utility Facilities, Garage, Storage Limitation of Uses: The site will host sporting events related to the school’s athletics’ department. They have requested a temporary use provision permitting such uses to be a minimum of 100 feet from residentially zoned districts, which would include sports events. Accessory structures such as storage building for equipment shall not exceed fifteen feet (15’). Area Building and Site Regulations: The classroom area of the school will be three stories in height, approximately 50’. The auditorium will be approximately 60’ with a 75’ fly loft. The applicant is asking for a height not to exceed 85’ because the plans have not been finalized at this date. Lighting requirements and a photometric plan will be submitted with the Final Site Plan. The applicant is proposing chain link fencing around the athletic fields. Other fencing requirements for the site would fall under the Town’s fence code. All trash receptacles must be screened with masonry and have a wrought iron gate. Signage requirements and an overall sign plan will be submitted with the Final Site Plan. The applicant has proposed hours of operation during the school year will be 7am to 11pm, the summer session hours will be 7am to 6pm. However staff feels the summer session hours may need to be extended in the Planning & Zoning Commission 1 February 2007 Page 6 of 28 evening for sports play. The screening for electrical and mechanical equipment is consistent with screening in many of the Town’s PD districts. Additional Development Standards - Landscaping: The landscaping requirements are generally consistent with the Town’s regulations. The applicant is proposing planter islands every 24 spaces instead of the Town’s 12 space requirement. Additionally, the applicant proposed shrubs to be 2’ in height when installed, the Town’s current requirement is 3’ at installation. The proposed dimensions of the interior planter island is 9’ by 18’, opposed to the Town’s current 10’ by 20’. Perimeter landscape areas are proposed to have trees installed every 50’, differing from the Town’s 30’ requirement. The remainder of the requirements in proposed PD-28 are standard PD provisions. The district is presently seeking to rezone the property from MH and R- 12 to a PD. When more details of the project are decided upon, the PD will be amended with additional criteria (i.e. lighting and signage) and the Final Site Plan will be submitted for review and action by the Planning & Zoning Commission and the Town Council.

(ADM-07-027) STAFF COMMENTS: The majority of the language added to Section L, “Maintenance and Repair of Non-Living Material” was not included in the most recently adopted Fence Code 2005-16, but was in the 2002-42 Ordinance. The Code Enforcement Department has requested this criterion be added back to the Fence Code to help with the enforcement of fence maintenance. Additional materials have also been added to Section D, “Materials”. The purpose for adding materials to the “prohibited materials” list is a matter of public safety. Following the Commission’s comments at the last meeting, I discussed the time provided for correction of a violation as well as the Code Enforcement Officer’s authority with Beth Ann Gregory. As the enforcement of this Ordinance falls under her department’s purview, she would like to discuss these items with the Commission at Thursday’s meeting. As a result, no changes have been made to the proposed amendment. (kcf) Planning & Zoning Commission 1 February 2007 Page 21 of 28 Chapter 13 – Zoning Article VII - Development & Design Standards D.
