MINUTES
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
REGULAR MEETING
October 3, 2016
The Planning and Zoning Commission of the City of Anna held its regular meeting on
October 3, 2016, at 7:00 p.m., at the Community Room of the Anna City Hall
Administration Building located at 111 North Powell Parkway (Hwy 5), to consider the
following items.
1. Call to order and establishment of quorum.
The meeting was called to order at 7:02 p.m. Members present were Sandy Setliff,
Don Callaham, Donald Henke, John Johnson, Donald Ussery and Christian
Landers. Commissioner Wayne Barton was absent. Staff present was Maurice
Schwanke and Tana Ross.
2. Invocation and Pledge of Allegiance
Ms. Schwanke gave the invocation and led the Pledge of Allegiance.
3. Consider/Discuss/Act on recommendation regarding “Anna Town Square
Phases 11-14”.
Mr. Schwanke gave a presentation and answered questions from the
Commissioner. A preliminary plat has been received on approximately 97.114
acres of land located in the Anna Town square development that is east of Hwy 5.
The project proposes (1 multifamily lot) and (3 commercial tracts). The current
zoning for the property is a planned development that allows for a mixture of multi-
family and commercial. The multifamily lot is where the Palladium apartment
complex is contemplated. Traversing the property is Finley Blvd., a 4 lane divided
thoroughfare in 80 feet of right- of-way. Mr. Schwanke noted that the staff
recommends approval of the preliminary plat subject to all ownership lines being
correctly shown and all engineering concerns being addressed on construction
plans for this development.
A motion was made by Commissioner Henke to recommend approval subject to
staff’s recommendation. Commissioner Setliff seconded the motion. The vote was
unanimous.
4. Consider/Discuss/Act on recommendation regarding a request by owner of
the property to change zoning from Single Family Estates (SF-E) to Restricted
Commercial (C-1) in the “Sister Grove Estates Addition”. The property is
located on Hwy 121 northeast of the Collin County Outer Loop.
The Public Hearing opened at 7:12 p.m. Mr. Schwanke gave a presentation and
answered questions from the Commission. The property (Sister Grove Estates)
was re-plated in July, 2016 combining three residential lots into one lot, totaling
PZ Minutes 10-3-16.doc Page 2 of 2 10-03-16
4.053 acres. The owner wishes to change the current zoning from SF-E (Single
Family-Estate) to C-1 (Restricted Commercial). This zoning change would be in
conformity to the future land use map as illustrated in the comprehensive plan.
However, the current uses of the surrounding properties are residential and
agricultural. The staff has determined that commercial uses of this property in its
current context without the appropriate infrastructure (water and sewer service) may
not be appropriate and would be premature at this time. Therefore, the staff is not
recommending that the current zoning be changed. Several property owners near
the surrounding area were opposed to the zoning. Van Lawrence, owner of property
spoke on behalf of the zoning request. The public hearing closed at 7:20 p.m.
A motion was made by Commissioner Ussery to deny the zoning request.
Commissioner Landers seconded the motion. The vote was 5 and 1 sustained
(Don Callaham)
5. Consider/Discuss/Act on recommendation regarding a request by owner of
the property to reduce the rear setback of his property from 20 feet to 12
feet. The property is currently zoned as PD 113-2004 Planned Development
and is located at 133 Hurstwood Ct, Anna, Texas.
This item was tabled at the request of the property owner. A motion was made by
Chairman Johnson, seconded by Commissioner Ussery to table agenda item. The
vote was unanimous. Commissioner Callaham was excused during the
deliberations
6. Consider to approve Minutes of the following Planning and Zoning meetings:
