DON BUNN - CITY ENGINEER
Bunn asked if they are planning to have some sort of garbage holders. Jorgensen
stated that they may build some sort of screened area to hold the trash cans at
that cul-de-sac. Bunn stated that since they are going to have an island in the
middle of the cul-de-sac, their covenants should probably prohibit parking around
the cul-de-sac. He advised that they would have to work this out with the Fire
Department as far as what they need to do whether an island can be there. He
noted that the Planning Commission will approve this subject to the Plat Review
minutes so if they don't work this out, the plat will not be approved.
Bunn advised that they need to show the
reasonable distance of the property line of
the plat as well as the island if they work

No problem. All of the lots are very large so there will be no problems with
setbacks, etc.
ELAINE CATTANEO - CITY PLANNING SECRETARY
She advised that this will go to the Subdivision Committee meeting on May 17th at
1:30 and the Planning Commission will meet on May 22nd at 5:00 p.m. They will

HARRY GRAY, NORTHWEST ENGINEERS - REPRESENTATIVE
He stated that they would like to be allowed to file an easement plat later
because the landscape architect out of Dallas is still working on the courtyard
area Mr. Bunn advised that could do that. He noted could have a plat for the
subdivision and a plat with just the easements. Gray advised that they will work
with all the utility companies on this once the landscape architect has it
figured out. He asked that all of the utility companies "red line" what they
would need in the meantime. Gray stated that they would file the easement plat
on the whole 70 acres if they are allowed to; they will provide the City with any
thing they need outside the boundaries of this project.
Gray stated that they are waiting to hear from Washington Regional on a name for
the one street that hasn't been named yet.
Gray advised that they will be asking for two variances: 1) that they not have
any City setback requirements from lot lines except from street right-of-ways
which affects lots 16 & 17; there will be some setback requirements as part of
the protective covenants and 2) a waiver of the separation between structures
requirement of 10' in the P.U.D. regulations because the roofs will be joined on
Lots 1,2 & 3 and form a cover for an 8' sidewalk between the buildings. It
states in Section 2.1 (6) that the Planning Commission can grant variances on any
of the subdivision or zoning ordinances.
DON BUNN - CITY ENGINEER
Bunn stated that there shouldn't be any particular problem with submitting an
easement plat later if they can all agree on the easements all except for the
courtyard area.
Bunn stated that they would need to show on the plat that they will have access
all the way through to Appleby Road. Also, there should be permanent type
barricades at the end of these streets that are stubbed out to the property lines
to the East of this site.
Bunn asked what the purpose of the final plat right now is. Gray stated that in
order to proceed with the building, they need their financing and the attorney
says that they need a plat filed to get the financing.
Bunn stated that he didn't know if the subdivider contract would need to be
signed with the City for off-site improvements. Gray stated that they will have
a Property Owner's Association agreement and restrictive covenants and they will
have those in draft form before the Planning Commission and they will have to
sign a contract on off-site improvements.
Bunn advised that they should make sure they have everything shown on the plat
that is required.

RICK EVANS - ARKANSAS WESTERN GAS
No problem with working with on the easements to get gas into it. Gray stated
that they have been considering making it all electric but he doesn't know yet.
DENNIS BURRACK - SWEPCO
Burrack noted that their general office people out of Shreveport have been
driving over to Dallas and have gotten quite a few things worked out as far as
the placement of their facilities there. He noted that the general agreement is
that the developer is going to install conduit, pads and vaults for the
equipment. The exact placement is still up in the air subject to the architect
s design of the garden area. Burrack requested that a stipulation be made that
the narrowest place they could get through between any buildings is 15' which is
5' more than the P.U.D. regulations call for. There will be a contract signed
between them on the installation of the underground which will protect them. The
platted easements would be fine after it's done.
PERRY FRANKLIN - TRAFFIC SUPERINTENDENT
Franklin noted that in the past history of the Planning Commission, there has
been concern over this much parking (80 spaces) having..only_one..exit out. In the
past with this many cars, they have demanded at least two ways in and out. Gray
stated that one of those parking lots is for staff and one is for doctors.
Franklin stated that someone with the architects had called him about putting in
nonstandard street lights and he referred them to SWEPCO because there would have
to be some kind of arrangement for maintenance, etc.
Franklin advised that the Highway Department contacted him and they are planning
to do a study of their traffic volumes at the exit going out onto the Bypass and
they should be getting those numbers in a couple of months. Futrall Drive will
eventually go on over to Milsap where that new traffic light was put in. He
noted that when the signal was put in there, they requested that the equipment to
handle any kind of traffic operation at that intersection so there is equipment
there that will handle left -turn protected movements and all that stuff.

entrances are setup where people will be able to drive up and drop off at the
front door.
Merrell asked what their development schedule is. Gray stated that the projected
schedule for lots 1-7 is to start construction in July and there is some
negotiation of the hospital's outpatient services as far as relocating to the
south of this project with a decision being made before too long. Merrell stated
that he is happy to see the "Wimberly Drive" notation because Ery was a good guy
and this is a tribute to him.
HAL MORTON - SANITATION DEPARTMENT
Morton asked if they planned to contract with the City for the solid waste
collection or will it be handled privately like the hospital is with an on-site
incinerator for infectious waste. He added that they currently don't deal with
medical waste. Herzog stated that they might consider that; they are aware that
is becoming an issue.
Morton stated that he couldn't tell with the scale on this plat but there doesn't
seem to be a straight shot to get into the dumpster pads with the front end
loaders and he couldn't tell if there was going to be a problem getting around
the islands. Gray stated that he didn't think there would be a problem with it.
ELAINE CATTANEO - CITY PLANNING SECRETARY
She noted that Jim Johnson, Meter Division, advised that this street named
"NorthHills" needs to be "Northhills" without the capital "H" because it may be
separated later on.
She advised that the Subdivision Counittee will review this on May 17th at 1:30
and the Planning Commission meeting is May 22nd at 5:00 p.m.
