PUBLIC COMMENT
Beth Hayden, 210 Oakmont- Mrs. Hayden thanked Mayor Carter
for returning the ordinance. She stated that in defense of
the Council she was riot sure it was clear to the Council
members on what they were voting for and she was riot sure the
ordinance should have ever gotten out of the P & Z.
Mrs. Hayden stated that she was not against special
residential, she was for it, but if the ordinance is zoned
for a minimum that is what the Town will get.
Mrs. Hayden read from a 1983 report from Independent American,
in which they stated they would not saturate the area and
they would be prudent in the control of its development.
Another report from Independent American stated that they
would adhere to the Gibralter plan and that they are worries}
about the lack of activities for the children in the area.
In one other report from Independent American concerning the
Plantation they stated that the buildings would be staggered
and every effort would be made to preserve the trees.
Chris Clark, 121 Carnoustie- Mr. Clark expressed concern over
contigous areas. He felt that some controls should be built
into the ordinance so that the size of contigous areas could
be controlled.
Mayor Carter stated that he wanted to make a recommendation:
relating to the control of contigous areas but he did not
know how to write it into the ordinance.
Jan Clinkenbeard, 119 Fairway Village- Mrs. Clinkenbeard
asked the Mayor if he meant to strike the word "attached" in
exhibit A. Mayor Carter stated that he had meant to stike the
word attached.
Mrs. Clinkenbeard stated that she has spent a lot of time
looking into the Grapevine master plan. She discovered that
although they have an ordinance for zero lot line, the
Planning and Zoning Commission has recommended doing away
with it because they have had nothing but problems with it.
Mrs. Clinkenbeard stated that the Grpaevine master plan does
not have any provision for attached housing or zero lot line~
Grapevine does not feel that a zero lot line home is a single
family residence.
Jim Dykes, 1105 Berkshire Court- Mr. Dykes stated that he is
involved professionally in planning large scale communities
and he has two observations regarding the ordinance. He felt
that the ordinance does not go into enough detail and there
is a level of detail missing.
He stated that the Urban Land Institute and several
developers around the country have evolved planning documents
that go into detail and could be used by the city. He
suggested possibly a committee to look into what other types
of plans have been enacted nation wide.
Jennifer 7ynes, 9 Creekmere- Mrs. Tynes suggested the Council
wait on any action until the Citizens Advisory Committee
survey comes back.
Tom Matthews, 8 Winding Creek- Mr. Matthews stated that the
city could not let Independent American set the criteria for
our community. He stated that the comments made by Mr. Dykes
concerning planning documents should be looked into.
Robert Pierce, 1116 Berkshire- Mr. Pierce was concerned with
the percentage of special residential homes as compared to
single family residential. He felt that there should be a
balance in the master plan so the city does not end up with a
higher percentage of multi -family dwellings.
Maria Cravens, 551 Indian Creek- Mrs. Cravens asked why the
city even needs special residential?
Council Member Martignago stated that he voted for the
special residential ordinance. He stated that at the time he
was convinced that some areas of land lend themselves better
to a zero lot line or townhouse structure as long as they are
in small areas and done correctly. In some areas they can be
used as a buffer and if constructed right they can lend to
the beauty of the area.
Council Member Martignago stated that he felt there are a
number of changes that need to be made if the city is going
to have a special residential ordinance. He feel that there
is a place for this type of construction in Trophy Club if it
is controlled and done properly. There are different
lifestyles and some people perfer to live in a zero lot line.
Roland Desjardins- Mr. Desjardins stated that if the Council
does its. ,lob there will not be a crowd at Council meetings.
When there is a large crowd that means people are concerned
with decisions that are being made. He stated that the fact
that the Mayor turned the ordinance back to the Council
showed that he listened to the residents and the Council did
not.
Gordan Marshal- Mr. Marshal stated that the Council would not
exist were it not for the question of density.
Sonny Evans, 212 Oakmont- Mrs. Evans thanked the Mayor for
his recommendations to change the ordinance and asked that
the Council protect the square footage issue.
,Ian Clinkenbeard, Fairway Village- Mrs. Clinkenbeard
stated that the City needs to develop a system for notifying
people who will directly be affected by zoning. She stated
that she had contacted several people in the areas this
ordinance would affect and not one member of the fir & Z or
City Council had bothered to contact them.
Mayor Carter stated that the City tries to notify people
through newspapers and newsletters. He stated that he writes
a column in the community newsletter informing the residents
of items being addressed by the Council.
Bob Hasbach- Mr. Hasbach stated that this issue is the reason
Trophy Club incorporated. He stated that the people did riot
want Independent American to ram a master plan dawn, their
throats and why did the residents go to the trouble to elect
people who would do the same thing?
Bill Tynes, 9 Creekmere- Mr. Tynes stated that he is a member
of the P & Z and did not vote for this ordinance. Mr. Tynes
stated that the commission has been, trying to work on a
roaster plan and they have been pushed by the developer. He
stated that the coromission has been coerced in some cases.
Mr. Tynes stated that the Attorney for Independent American
asked the P & Z if they would like to see the golf course
turned into a cow pasture.
Mr. Tynes said the P & Z has done a good ,lob overall but in
his opinion has been too hasty. In trying to grant some
interim land uses to the developer, Mr. Tynes felt the
Commission and Council has overdone it. He asked the Council
to turn the ordinance down or send it back to the P & Z and
welcomed comments or recommendations. Mr. Tynes asked for a
show of hands of the people who felt Trophy Club does not
need this kind of ordinance. The majority of the crowd raised
their hands.
Barry Knight, Attorney for Independent American gave several
reasons he felt the Council passed the special residential
ordinance:
1. Promote open space and tree preservation~
2. Need for a variety in housing because of different
lifestyles.
3~ Higher security, less maintenance.
4. Demand for special residential in Trophy Club.
5. Increase in property values. Surrounding areas near �
Fairway Village, Summit and Oak Village Court have gone up
in value.
S. Less demand for City services.
7. Less demand on the school system.
S. Tracks suggested are isolated.
9. Less traffic with special residential.
Mr. Knight stated that hes was hesitant to bring up the last
point but considering the comments of a very pointed
nature that have been brought up he felt he should.
He stated that special residential is important to the
community because it is important for the community to have a
positive relationship with the developer of the community.
He stated that it is important to the community that the
developer stay healthy. Mr. Knight stated that Independent
American owns approxiamtely 50% of the land in Trophy Club
and it is essential that the developer and the Town Council
have a positive working relationship.
Mr. Ron Whitten, M.P.F. Research- Mr. Whitten stated that
there tends to be magnet's that attract a special residential
housing. A highly desirable country club enviroment is one of
those. In many instances, these are "empty nesters" and
retirees who want to spend leisure time perhaps on the golf
course.
Mayor Carter pointed out to Mr. Whitten that in the M.P.F.
report it was pointed out that in a number of golf course
developments, the typical size of the lots were in excess of
5,000 sq. ft.
Mayor Carter stated that the city wants to help the developer
develop and utilize his 50% of the land in Trophy Club so he
will get a maximum return on his investment. Mayor Carter
then reminded Mr. Knight that the residents own the other 50%
of land in Trophy Club.
Bill Richardson, Independent American -Mr. Richardson gave
the cost per square foot of the special residential areas in
Trophy Club. He pointed out the increase in value from the
time these areas were built.
Jennifer Tynes, 9 Creekmere- Mrs. Tynes stated that it is
standard operating procedure for Independent American to put
on their "dog and pony show" at the end of the evening when
everyone is tired and some people have gone home~ She stated
that no matter what statistics they pull or whatever mirrors
they hold up it does not change the fact that the majority of
residents do not want this type of housing and that is the
thought the Council should be left with.
Kathy Whitworth, 255 Oak Hill Drive- Ms~ Whitworth thanked
the Council for the hard work they have done. She stated that
when Independent American gives examples of nice special
residential areas in Trophy Club they are areas which they
did not develop. Ms. Whitworth stated that they did not
mention the Quorum, Towmhomes or Plantation. She asked if
their representatives could give an example of a successful
area of special residential they have developed.
Mr. Knight stated that they did not develop the Quorum,
Plantation or Townhoees.
Mr. Roger Campbell- Mr. Campbell asked who the developer of
the Plantation was. Mr. Laddie Woods of Independent American
stated that it was Condo Homes Inc., Ray Stockman. Mr.
Campbell asked what role did Howard Barnwell play in that?
Mr~ Woods stated that he did not know who Howard Barnwell is.
Mr. Campbell stated that it was interesting because he had
met Mr. Barnwell and he told him he was the President of, the
corporation that developed the Plantation. Mr. Campbell
stated that Mr. Brown, with Independent American, stated that
he had never heard of Mr. Barnwell. Mr. Campbell said that
Mr. Barnwell was and still may be a resident of Trophy Club
and he finds it interesting that no one has heard his name.
"Maybe he was bragging about something he had nothing to do
with", stated Mr. Campbell.
Mr. Woods stated that he had never heard the gentlemen's name
and that was for the public record.
COUNCIL COMMENT
Council Member Martignago- "I have no doubt in my mind that
we don't want a special residential ordinance in Trophy
Club", stated Council Member Martignago. "I don't think there
is any reason to expound on it because I have heard it 100
times tonight". 1 still feel there is a place for it, but
because of the comments I have heard here tonight 1 am going
to make a motion to defeat the ordinance and not pass this
ordinance at all" Martignago stated. Council Member Dayton
seconded the motion. The motion was open for discussion.
Council Member Neidenberger-"Isituphereand listen to
everybody, and % am very glad to know that you don't want
special residential"r stated Neidenberger. He went on to say
that when the Council passed the special residential on the
two tracts of land, that was the only place that special
residential was going. He pointed out that anybody who said
different did not understand the ordinance and did not
understand the will of the Council.
Council Member Neidenberger stated that the people in Trophy
Clubr if they would tolerate special residential, were well
protected by what was done by the Council. He said that the
ordinance, was a general ordinance and does not have take
every "nit-picking" thing into consideration. It covered very
well what needed to be done in those two tracks. If the
people did not want 6 units per acre thats fine, but you
don't want 5 either, I'll tell you that right now", because �5
on five is not worth anything". "You are taking out all of
the ingenmnity that any developer can put into any of these
things, so we have told each other that we do not want
special residential in Trophy Club". "That is exactly the
decision that has been made and expounded by the people here
tonight". "I am sorry that we had to have such a big show
because you could have Just come forward and said that. We
have to let the developer make money here. If you run him out
you will run a lot of other things out that are beneficial to
Trophy Club. I certainly will go along with reecinding the
ordinance, we will Just recind it completely because nobody
wants special residential and that may be the wrong move but
apparently is the will of the people. I do want to make sure
that you understand that there was nothing unprotected, so
far as the citizens of Trophy Club. That was expensive
property, there was no way they could develop it without
putting in class dwellings on that property", stated
Neidenberger.
Mayor Pro Tem Vance- "It's hard to sit up here and here the
comments and not be able to respond to them as they occur so
subsequently any response of sitting here for four and one-
half hours is a little belated", he stated. Mayor Pro Tem
Vance stated that the Council is very concerned with quality
housing and felt that the ordinance the Council passed
protected the people. "Everyone is reading the ordinance from
the point of view of worst case and granted the/re is room for
the developer to move within a boundary". He stated that the
ordinance is also for us as a city and if we make the
ordinance incredibly restrictive we have restricted the City
itself too. In doing a master plan, the city needs some
degree of freedom in order to buffer certain types of
development from others.
Mayor Pro Tem thanked the people who sent flyers to get
residents to the meeting because if the people come to the
meetings they will be well informed and can have input into
city decisions. He stated that in the past we did not have
the ability to control things, but now we have ordinances
with site plan review and site design reviews. Mayor Pro Tem
Vance amended Council Member Martignago's motion to state
that instead of shelving the ordinance he would recommend
that the ordinance be turned back to the P & Z to review and
take into consideration the comments and recommendations that
have been made. Council Member Doran seconded the motion.
Council Member Dayton- Council Member Dayton stated that she
has listented tonight to the people and is dissappointed that
so many of the people are so totally against special
residential. Council Member Dayton stated that she would not
be living in Trophy Club were it not for special residential.
She felt that some areas are made for special residential and
would hate to see it thrown out altogether. She stated that
the Summit and Fairway Village are nice areas because they
are small and in nice settings. She stated that along with
the comments made tonight she would like to see a little
trust in the P & Z and City Council to see that special
residential areas are tastefully done. If the ordinance is
defeated altogether, it would deny a certain lifestyle in
Trophy Club~ Special residential can offer a nice change to
the area if it is intersperced in areas. Council Member
Dayton stated that she would like to see the ordinance go
back to the P & Z for review.
Council Member Doran- Council Member Doran stated that is a
bit of a travesty that 50% of the Jury has gone home while
those on trial are still hanging in. He stated that he voted
for the Nelson and the Knoll tracts under special
residential. He stated that he did not do that because he did
not know any better. there is a process in place to filter
information up through the P & Z to the Council.
Council Member Doran stated that he would Join Council
Members Dayton, Vance and Neidenberger in their remarks
in saying that they are saddened that special residential
ordinance was treated as it was, only from a standpoint of
education. He stated that he did not take this as a personal
defeat because this is part of the process. He stated that
the City Council has an obligation to send the ordinance back
to the P & Z for review. Council Member Doran thanked the
residents for their input and asked them not to stop with
this meeting but stay involved in city matters.

by Council Member Doran was to turn the special residential
ordinance back to the Planning and Zoning Commission for
