[CALL TO ORDER AND ANNOUNCE A QUORUM]

[00:00:06]

GOOD AFTERNOON. WE'RE GOING TO GO AHEAD AND CALL THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING TO ORDER.

TODAY IS JULY THE 29TH, IT IS 5:30 AND WE'VE GOT A COUPLE OF ITEMS TO GO OVER.

[ITEM 1: RP-25-0007. Public hearing, discussion, and make a recommendation to the City Council regarding a request to replat approximately 0.590 acres, Lot 1R, Block 9, revised Plat of Lipsey, an Addition to Wise County, Texas, being a portion of Lots 1 and 2, Block 9, revised Plat of Lipsey, as recorded in Cabinet A, Slides 81-82, Plat Records, Wise County, Texas, also known as 3301 S Murvil Street, Decatur, Texas. (Replat – Davie Ray Murphy)]

LISA HANNON, PLANNING DIRECTOR. I'D LIKE TO ENTER OUR STAFF REPORT INTO THE RECORD BY REFERENCE IN ITS ENTIRETY.

SO THIS IS THE REPLAT FOR 3301 SOUTH MURVIL. THIS HAS BEEN CONTINUED TWICE NOW.

THEY HAVE CORRECTED ALL THE DEFICIENCIES AND THE APPLICATION IS IN ORDER AND THE STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS HAVE BEEN MET.

SO THESE ARE THE EXISTING CONDITIONS. THEY'RE JUST ASKING FOR A REPLAT.

IT'S ABOUT 0.59 ACRES EXISTING SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTS.

THEY'RE PROPOSING A NEW CARPORT IS WHY IT NEEDED TO BE PLATTED.

IT HAD NEVER BEEN PLATTED. SO AND IT MEETS ALL THE ZONING REGULATIONS.

NO SPECIAL EXCEPTIONS OR VARIANCES ARE REQUIRED.

PROPERTY OWNER NOTIFICATIONS HAVE WERE SENT OUT.

WE NOTIFIED 14 PROPERTY OWNERS. WE DIDN'T RECEIVE ANY FORMAL RESPONSES.

WE DID RECEIVE TWO PHONE INQUIRIES. WHEN WE EXPLAINED TO THEM WHAT IT WAS, THAT WAS JUST A REPLY SO THEY COULD ADD A CARPORT WITHIN THE REGULATIONS.

THEY HAD NO ISSUES AND STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL OF THE REQUEST.

SO IT'S AN ACTION ITEM FOR THE COMMISSION TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL OR DENIAL TO CITY COUNCIL.

OKAY, AND I FORGOT THIS WAS A PUBLIC HEARING ITEM.

YOU CAN OPEN IT NOW. YOU CAN OPEN IT NOW AND CALL FOR PUBLIC COMMENTS.

WE OPENED IT AT 5:31. WAS THERE ANYBODY IN THE AUDIENCE WISHING TO SPEAK ON THIS AGENDA ITEM? DO WE HAVE ANYBODY ONLINE WISHING TO SPEAK ON THIS AGENDA ITEM? OKAY. HEARING NONE, THEN I'M GOING TO GO AHEAD AND CLOSE THIS PUBLIC HEARING. IT IS NOW 05:32 COMMISSIONERS.

ANY QUESTIONS? AND GUTTERS AND SIDEWALKS? GOOD QUESTION.

I DON'T BELIEVE THAT WAS A REQUIREMENT BY THE PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT ON THIS ONE.

THERE WERE NO COMMENTS REGARDING THAT. THAT'S CORRECT.

THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING THAT THE PUBLIC WORKS IS LOOKING AT ON THERE, WHETHER THAT'S REQUIRED OR NOT, UNDER THE SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE, AND THERE WAS NO REQUIREMENT FOR IT. OKAY.

INTERESTING. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? COMMENTS? CONCERNS? OKAY. HEARING NONE. THEN I'LL GO AHEAD AND ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL OR DENIAL TO CITY COUNCIL.

I'LL RECOMMEND APPROVAL TO CITY COUNCIL FOR ITEM NUMBER 1 RP-25-0007.

OKAY, I'VE GOT A MOTION FOR A RECOMMENDATION FOR APPROVAL BY COMMISSIONER WILL KLOSE, I NEED A SECOND.

SECOND. I'VE GOT A SECOND FROM SHELBY, COMMISSIONER SHELBY HICKS.

ALL IN FAVOR? AYE. THOSE OPPOSED? OKAY. ITEM TWO.

[ITEM 2: Discussion of future agenda, new business items, staff requests, and potential special-called meeting and/or workshop requests: a. As of the agenda posting, the August 5, 2025, meeting currently has three (3) new Planning applications. The submittal deadline was July 7, at 5:00 p.m. (If there is a meeting, the meeting will be an in-person meeting with potential virtual attendance of staff and members of the public unless otherwise determined.)]

WE HAVE FOUR ITEMS ON THAT AGENDA. VERY GOOD.

IS THAT IT? THAT'S IT. ANYBODY ELSE HAS GOT ANYTHING GOOD FOR THE COMMISSION? SPEAK UP. IF NOT, THIS MEETING IS ADJOURNED. IT IS NOW 5:34.
