Archie Heimer Project was discussed. Location: South of Green Valley Road off of Farm to Market Road 3009. "Mr. Heirilerwanted the Plc:l.nni'ng and Zoning Commission consideration on drainage easement versus ri'ght-of-way. The Commission was advised that City Engineer.Ed Ford said a l"igfit-of.,.waywas required since it was in the Flood Plain. This would restrict buildi'ng and control the upkeep of the right-of-way. An easement would provide larger lots to sale; would not destroy the trees or the natural beauty and would restrict the public from using the drainage area. After a lengthy discussion it was determined if the City Engineer approved the Planned Drainage, this area should be an easement. This would remove the responsibility from the City Personnel to clean tfie drainage easement. Mr. Heimer should have deed restriction, which prohibits any building or fencing of the Flood Plain Area. It was determined Green Valley Road should be a 60 foot right-of-way. Earl Hartzog advised tfie Commission Coy Simmons had come in ready to start construction on Oak Forest Unit 1111. location fronting Farm to Market Road 3009 at Oak Forest. City files do not have indication the Preliminary Plat has ever been approved; there was a letter dated August 31,1982, from City Engineer recommending approval. John Linebarger asked Clay McMahan to check back and see if he corild find any Planning and Zoning approval. Recom- mend this area be replatted since the flow of Dietz Creek has been changed. Due to concern of development of Farm to Market Road 3009, it was recommended to have a reevaluation of 100 Year Flood Plain along Dietz Creek by Corps of . Engineers. Recommend Ed Ford generate the request. Mr. Willman inquired about the status of the revisions to the Animal Control Ordinance and recommended his proposed changes be sent to Council for consid- eration. The Commission was advised the City Staff had not been able to research this matter, because of more pressing items. Chairman Linebarger asked for the Animal Control Ordinance to 5eplaced on the Agenda for the next meet i ng. #7 ADJOURNMENT Chairman Linebarger adjourned the meeting at 9:10 PM.
