Mr. Alvin Johnson, the applicant, gave a brief presentation to the Commission regarding the proposed development.
Mr. Manny Singh, residing at 1001 Holly Street, spoke in opposition to the request and explained that corporate
and professional developments would be more valuable and more of an asset to the community as noted in the
Comprehensive Plan. He also highlighted that the applicant, since the last couple of attempts to rezone, has
removed the commercial component that they were originally proposing and added a roundabout. Mr. Singh also
listed the already approved multifamily developments in the area and around the city.
Ms. Gretchen Stewart, residing at 1013 Crepe Myrtle, filled out a speaker card in opposition to the request but
requested that Mr. Manny Singh continue speaking on her behalf. It is noted that the Chairperson of the Commission
has the authority to give the permission for this type of request. Chairwoman Patterson -Herndon allowed Mr. Singh
to continue speaking on behalf of Ms. Stewart for her 3 minutes.

is a lag time for the Anna ISD infrastructure to accommodate more of these types of developments.
Mr. Tony Bellefond, residing at 2934 Pecan Grove, spoke in opposition to the request and expressed concern for
the proposed roundabout and explained that they cause more accidents than they assist with traffic. He also advised
that the reason the City of Anna residents moved to Anna was for the small town feel and they lose that feel if the
city continues to approve these big developments and tall structures.
The Public Hearing was closed at 7:49 pm.
Commissioner Wenzel asked staff to pull the 2050 Comprehensive Map on to the screen for reference. He explained
that his concern is that there really isn't a lot of designated area for Professional Campus zoning and when we start
removing it and allowing other types of developments, there really isn't anywhere else designated for what
Professional Campus was intended for. Commissioner Wenzel explained that he feels it should be kept at what it
was intended for which is Professional Campus,
Chairwoman Patterson -Herndon followed up with explaining that it did not meet the Comprehensive Plan when the
applicant came before the Commission a few months back and that it still does not meet the Comprehensive Plan
with the applicant's current request.
Commissioner Hermann also expressed his concern for the applicant's request and that it deviates from the
Comprehensive Plan for what that area was intended for. He also pointed out that there is already multifamily zoning
around the city.
Ms. Lea Fray Adamski, representing the seller of the land, approached the podium and explained that she had filled
out a speaker card but was not called during the public hearing.
Chairwoman Patterson -Herndon advised that she would allow Ms. Adamski time to speak.

Ms. Adamski spoke in favor of the request and explained that they do not see a Professional Campus type use
coming in for 15 years. Ms. Adamski also pointed out several multifamily projects that she has worked on where
they did not have to seek approval because those were located in the ETJ. She also explained that the applicant
has offered to put in a road to help the neighboring residents with traffic and easier means to get out onto Hwy 5
and that the applicant has also agreed to pave 423.
Commissioner Martin explained that the property has already been allocated for something else (Professional
Campus) and when that is taken away for a different type of use, it never gets allocated somewhere else in place
Of,
Mr. Altobelli asked to clarify Commissioner Martin's statement and advised the Commission that it is staff's
responsibility to come back to the Commission after so many years and ask the Commission how we are doing with
the Comprehensive Plan and if ask if changes need to be made.
A motion was made by Commissioner Martin, seconded by Commissioner Nylec to deny the applicant's Planned
Development zoning request. The vote was unanimous.
23. Consider/DiscusslAction on the Hager Ranch, Concept Plan. Applicant: James E. Hager Trust.
A motion was made by Commissioner Wenzel, seconded by Commissioner Hermann to deny the Concept Plan.
The vote was unanimous.
The owner of the property approached and asked to see documentation from the city chat specified what they are
referring to because her grandfather was approached back in the 80's and offered money and he denied it. She
again requested to see documentation that reflects the designation for the land.
Mr. Altobelli advised that he would be happy to meet with her after the meeting to discuss.
24. Conduct a Public Hearing/Consider/Discuss/Action on a request to rezone 82.0±acres located on the south side of
