Case No. 10-21 - Conduct a Public Hearing and consider a request for a Conditional Use Permit (CUP)
to serve alcoholic beverages in conjunction with a restaurant located at 638 Uptown Blvd., Suite 120,
requested by Gultida Pisensnakornkit on behalf of Suzushii Sushi & Grill Restaurant.
Summary of Item Suzushii Sushi & Grill Restaurant is a new restaurant proposed in a lease space on
Uptown Blvd., across from Wal-Mart. The property is zoned Local Reail (LR) and restaurants that serve
alcoholic beverages are an authorized use in this district provided the City Council first issues a
Conditional Use Permit (CUP).
There are no public schools, churches, public hospitals or residentially zoned areas in the vicinity and
thus this application meets the separation requirements as stated in the City’s Alcoholic Beverage
regulations (Section 4.1.4 Cedar Hill Zoning Code).
The Planning Department has reviewed the enclosed site plan and finds it in general compliance
with City codes, policies and ordinances.
As with all CUP requests, a public hearing must be conducted before consideration. Notice of this
hearing was published in The Focus Daily News and mailed to property owners within 200 ft.
The Planning & Zoning Commission conducted its public hearing on this request on December 7,
2010. No one other than the applicant spoke regarding this request. The Commission, by a vote of
6-0, recommended approval of this request, as presented.
Recommended Action: Conduct a public hearing and concur with the Planning & Zoning
Commission’s motion to approve this request, as presented.

Date of Request:
December 8, 2010
Action Requested:
Other
January 11, 2011
Agenda Item: Case No. 10-24 - Conduct a Public Hearing and consider a request for a change in zoning FROM
“LR” – Local Retail TO “PD-MF” – Planned Development for Multi-Family on 13.447 acres of land out of Abstract
1472, generally located at the northwest corner of Pioneer Trail and Uptown Blvd.; requested by Brad Walters of
Forestar.
Summary of Item: This proposed Planned Development (PD) zoning district includes a “concept plan” and
development standards for a 355 unit apartment complex, located just south of Wal-Mart. The proposed PD is
very similar to the “Alexan” project that received preliminary approval in 2008; however, various changes have
been made to address the City Center Vision Plan, which was adopted in 2010. The applicant’s Informational
Statement describes the project and the efforts taken to adhere to the City Center Vision Plan.
The site is currently zoned Local Retail (LR) and is within the Uptown Overlay District. The Comprehensive Plan
shows this area as “Mixed Use” (primarily non-residential). The City Center Vision Plan designates this area as an
“Urban Center” which emphasizes intense land uses, such as 4-8 story structures with active ground level and
transit supportive uses like offices, commercial and lodging. A detailed analysis of the PD proposal’s
comparison to the multi-family zoning district standards, the Comprehensive Plan and the City Center Vision
Plan is attached in the City Planner’s report.
The PD Zoning is a unique zoning district in that it employs a distinctive approval procedure and allows
developers to propose “custom” standards in order to accommodate imaginative or superior design elements.
However, once established, the city cannot amend a PD zoning district without approval from the landowner
or unless they fail to perform within the development schedule established in the PD Zoning Code.
Unless specifically included in the City Council motion, final site plan approval will lie with the P&Z; furthermore,
the minimum masonry requirements for this project will be 80% masonry with no specification on the remaining
20%.
As with all zoning change requests, a public hearing is required before consideration and action. Notice of this
On November 22, 2010, the Uptown Architectural Review Committee (Main Street Board) reviewed the
conflicts between the proposed PD standards and the Uptown Overlay District standards and concluded that
the proposed alternative designs were in keeping with the intent of the Uptown Overlay district standards.
The Planning & Zoning Commission conducted its public hearing on this request on December 7, 2010. One
person spoke in favor of this request. The Commission, by a vote of 4-1, recommended approval of this
request.
Recommended Action: Conduct a public hearing and concur with the Planning & Zoning Commission’s motion
to approve this request, as presented.

behalf of downtown/old town businesses
• Establish additional social media outlets to further supplement communication
• Create downtown merchants association
• Initiate periodic informal gatherings of downtown stakeholders hosted by businesses and
participants from throughout the district
• Propose businesses leave window lights burning after hours to encourage window shopping,
promote business activities, enhance the appearance of downtown vitality and heighten security
• Sponsor seasonal outdoor decoration competitions
• Solicit advice from successful small business organizers such as the Better Blocks program

master plan.

Case No. 10-24 - Conduct a Public Hearing and consider a request for a change in
zoning FROM “LR” – Local Retail TO “PD-MF” – Planned Development for Multi-Family on
13.447-acres of land out of Abstract 1472, generally located at the northwest corner of
Pioneer Trail and Uptown Blvd. Requested by Brad Walters of Forestar.
Brad Walters of Foerstar, 6300 Bee Cave Rd., Building 2, Suite 500, Austin, TX 78746, stepped
forth to present this request and answer any questions from the Commission.
Mr. Walters stated that they have hired a local firm, Hensley, Lamkin, Rachel, Inc. to assist with
the design of this project.
David Hensley, of Hensley, Lamkin, Rackel, Inc. 14881 Quorum Dr. Dallas, TX 75254 stepped
forth to present a Power Point presentation to the Commission.
Mr. Hensley stated that they previously worked with Trammel Crow Residential on the original
Alexan project proposed about 2 years ago and as a result was approached to assist with this
project.
Mr. Hensley gave a brief history of the previous project which was put on hold due to the
downtown in the economy. Trammel Crow Residential then backed away from the
development and it was recently picked back up by Forestar.
Additionally, Mr. Hensley stated that they have tried to work very closely with the Main Street
Board in particular on issues such as architectural standards and the proposed transition into

the older downtown area. The design of this project is based heavily on new urbanism ideals,
creating pedestrian friendly streetscapes with green spaces located in the internal area. He
also mentioned that they have met a number of times with the Planning Staff and took into
consideration the standards and concepts contained within the recently adopted City Center
Vision Plan, and although they may not meet the exact letter of the Vision Plan, they feel they
have met the intent.
1.
Frank Mihalopoulos , 4645 North Central Expressway, Dallas, TX 75205.
Mr. Mihalopoulos stated that Forestar is financially strong and will be able to make this project
a reality. He stated that there is a real need for this type of project in Cedar Hill, a convenient
place to live, work and play. However, he did expressed his surprise and disappointment to
find out that staff’s report stated that the project did not meet the City’s plans, even though
the Main Street Board recommended unanimous approval.
No one spoke.
Commission.
Commissioner Hamilton complemented Mr. Hensley on his presentation but asked him if he
understood that the plans that they were proposing did not comply with the recently adopted
Comprehensive Plan.
Mr. Hensley stated that yes, he understood that there were some inconsistences but he felt
that they have met the intent of the plan. He further stated that 6 and 8 story condos would
not be a viable option at this location. The plan that they are proposing would be more
economically viable for this area.
Chairman Brooks stated that she agreed that the applicant’s proposal was a good plan. She
went on to state that some residents might find it a bit startling to see 8 stories buildings on
Uptown Blvd.
Commissioner Thierry asked the applicant about the pricing of the units.
Mr. Hensley stated that the rentals would range from approximately $900-$2200 per month.
Commissioner Thierry asked the applicant if there were any units that would comply with the
Fair Housing Act, meaning any plans for subsidized units.
Mr. Hensley stated that there is not currently an affordability component with this property and
no future plans for subsidization.

DRAFT
Commissioner Thierry commented to the applicant that his presentation mentioned the
“live/work” scenario but that the people who worked at the surrounding businesses, such as
Wal-Mart and Cinemark may not have the means to pay rents starting at $900 per month.
Chairman Brooks stated that in order for the community to accept another multi-family
project, she feels that a higher price point is more palatable. She also stated that this project
would support transit oriented development and would serve commuters into Dallas.
Vice-Chairman Strother stated that he felt this is a good plan, but cautioned the applicant by
saying that they may face some challenges while working this project through the
development process.
A motion was made by Commissioner Hamilton to approve Case No. 10-24, as presented. The
motion was seconded by Vice-Chairman Strother. The vote was as follows:
Ayes: 4 – Chairman Brooks, Vice-Chairman Strother and Commissioners Nanry and Hamilton.
Nays: 1 – Commissioner Thierry.

Uptown Cedar Hill
PD Concept Plan Informational Statement
13.02 Acres
December 2, 2010
With the decline of new home construction and affordability, the ever increasing cost of fuel, and
the population explosio n of the “Echo Boomer” generation, high quality rental housing in urban
districts is in vital need. The City of Cedar Hill is experiencing this reality along with many other
suburban cities in North Texas. Cedar Hill, along with other North Texas cities, is faced with the
challenge of meeting this increased demand for new housing. At the sa me time, Cedar Hill has
established a vision for achieving the goal of
creating a sustainable, mi xed-use, pedestrian
friendly urban center.
In the Marc h 2010 City Center Vision Plan, the City complet ed the initial phase of planning for
Cedar Hill's City Cente r transformation. Upto wn Cedar Hill, a new high-densit y multifamil y
community, will provide Cedar Hill residents
with a new housing al ternative and begin the
process of f ulfilling the new vision. Uptown Ce dar Hill will provide 355 households with the
ability to walk to work, the gym, the movie theatre, the grocery store, more than 1 million square
feet of retail shopping, and to their favorite restaurants.
To create new forward-l ooking developments and allow flexi bility in design solution, the Vision
Plan is be st fulfilled by the Planned Developme nt process. At the sa me time, the planned
development process provides the city a flexible oversight to help ensure the quality of any such
development.
The Uptown Cedar Hill community meets the intents of the cit y's goals as outlined in t he Vision
Plan. The new high-density multifamily community will provide a quality, upscale, rental housing
alternative to the increasing resident base of Cedar Hill.
A large percentage of t he employment and pop ulation grow th can be a ttributed to t he added
retail within the City Ce nter (formerly the Uptown Overlay District.) This area within Cedar Hill
has become the retail hub for southern Dallas County. With the addition o
f the new
Government Building, it has truly become the center of the city. The development
of Uptown
Cedar Hill begins to att ain the goal of a true mixed use, New Urbanism environ ment. Within
walking dist ance, resid ents can e asily reach the new Government Center, 6 10 Uptown
Boulevard, Wal-Mart, JCPenney, 2 4 Hour Fitness, and th e CineMark mo vie theatre. On bik e
residents can reach all destinations in the district.
Uptown Cedar Hill wi ll be su stainable, upsca le, rental h ousing and create a t rue urban
neighborhood. The dwellings will be of high quality construction and the exteriors wi ll be well
maintained and manicured. The location is ne ar existing schools, recreational facilities, office,
retail and p ublic services. There will be ad equate light ing and the de velopment will promote
social activities for residents. A community within itself, Uptown Cedar Hill will possess an array
of amenities including an upscale clubhouse, community park, executive business center, resort
style pool, state of the art fitness facility, and large theatre/entertainment center.
With the ne w Go vernment Building and other recently opened businesses, there will soon be
more than 700 office employees working wit hin a very short walk
of Uptown Cedar Hill.
Uptown Cedar Hill
PD Concept Informational Statement
1 of 16
Companies seeking ta lented young professio nals will be nefit from their close proximity to
southern Dallas Count y’s only up scale rental community. The project will attr
act young
professionals in the area looking for a “live/work/play” lifestyle. The synergy created by plantin g
355 new households in the heart of the City Center will stimulate growth throughout the city.
With walk-up access a nd landsca ped boulevards, Uptown Cedar
Hill will off er a housing
alternative similar to what can be found in other local urban communities. Post Shops at
Legacy and the State
and Thomas area of
uptown Dallas are exa mples of th is type of
development. Uptown Cedar Hill will be made up of 13 thr ee and 1 fo ur story buildings which
are aligned on the property in an urban grid pattern. The site is divided by an internal divided
boulevard drive. The boulevard will be lined wi th trees and with a round-a-bout and a central
water feature. The pro perty will contain predominately on e and two b edroom floorplans with a
few three bedroom units that will be i deal for families relo cating to Cedar Hill. Direct access to
first level units from front porch entries, decorative paving, and an urban town home atmosphere
are elements that contribute to the urban design.
In order to achieve ped estrian con nectivity, and in cooper ation with t he City’s Vision Plan to
create pede strian frien dly paths, Up town Cedar Hill ha s be en designe d with urba n sidewalks
along Pioneer and Uptown Boulevard. These walks will provide connectivity to the Government
Building an d to the fut ure transit station. Inter ior sidewalks connect t he various buildings an d
amenities within the site. A future connection with the hike and bike trail system is also provided.
The site plan allows for future connectivity to n eighboring undeveloped properties by the use of
internal drive and pedestrian trails.
The development team believes that a high den sity, residential component is a key part to any
mixed use district. Uptown Cedar Hill has been designed to fulfill the intent of the Vision Plan.

Uptown Overlay District Development Standards
General Building and Site Orientation
The building site plan will orient Uptown Cedar Hill toward the key intersection of Uptown
Boulevard and Pioneer Trail. The buildings will be oriented directly to the public corner and
face the public streets.
Parking lot layout, landscaping, buffering, and screening shall prevent direct views of parked
vehicles from public streets and sidewalks. Screening measures will be used to avoid spillover light or glare from the parking lots onto adjacent properties.
Build-to line s will be 20 feet due to a 15’ util ity easement running alon g the west side of
Uptown Bou levard. A majority of internal buildin gs will have a setback between 10 and 15
feet from the internal boulevards helping to create the urban setting. The center point of the
property will include a r ound-a-bout with a cent ral water fe ature and d ecorative landscaped
surroundings including seasonal color.
The site has been oriented to provide opportunities for the public to walk, bicycle an d drive
within the community and adjace nt developments while minimizing conflicts
between
different modes, promoting an orderly, visually pleasing and active street environment. The
property will easily link t o the City’s hike and bi ke trail system directly west of the sit e (when
the trail is completed). The plan allows for connectivity to t he adjacent lot to the west by a
simple connection to our internal divided boulevard.
Uptown Cedar Hill
5 of 16
Area Requirements
The density of Uptown Cedar Hill will be 28 un its per acre w ith a minimum lot area of 1,600
square feet per unit.
Yard Requirements
Due to a 15 foot easement on the west side of U ptown Boulevard a front yard of 20 ft will be
required, however, front yard setbacks will be kept to a minimum with-in the property as they
align with the internal tr affic lanes. This will pr ovide streetscape that is in line with current
urban design (usually 15 feet).
Side yards are also ke pt to a minimum to cre ate the appearance of continuous structures
along the public right-of-ways.
Architectural Style Requirements
Building wall offsets, including proje ctions, recesses, and changes in f loor level will be used
to add architectural interest and variety, and to relieve the visual effect of a simple, long wall.
Roofline offsets will be provided as well, in order to provide architectural interest and variety
to the massing of the building and to break the roof into smaller scale components.
All building entrances will be defi ned and articulated by architectural elements such as
awnings and Juliet balconies. Alon g Pioneer a nd the port ion of Uptow n Boulevard nearest
the corner, t he first level will reflect the retail at mosphere of the Uptown Overlay District by
incorporating storefront windows. This will help increase the urban fe el of the co mmunity
and further complement the neighboring structures.
Lighting f ixtures attach ed to the e xterior of th e building shall be arch itecturally compatible
with the style, materials, colors, and details of t he building. Street lighting fixtures will be
consistent with those found throughout the Uptown Overlay District.
Exterior Building Material Requirements
All exterior elevations will be at least 80% percent masonry with a combination of bri ck and
stucco. Stone will be used on
at least 10% of the e
levations facing public streets.
Recessed balconies and interior co rridors may be finished with cement board (Hardi Plank)
siding.
Architectural Features
The apartment buildings will have distinct entries and architectural elements that will exhibit
a regional contemporary architect ural design intended t o be compatible with t he newest
Cedar Hill City Center vision. Standing seam metal roofs at key locations, parap et walls ,
metal balconies, and fr ont porch e ntries are p lanned to e nhance the urban feel of the
community.
Each first floor apartment home will feature on street entry from the pu blic sidewalk. These
entries will be covered by the balcony above or an awning.
Uptown Cedar Hill
6 of 16
The exterior will have l arge multi-pane windows, some cor ner windows, and large glass
sliding patio doors.
Parking includes 352 su rface parking spaces, 8 4 carport sp aces, 86 ga rage spaces and 82
tandem spaces. Appro ximately 24 % of the units will have access t o a parking garage.
Garage spaces are not allowed to be used a s storage; t here will be additional r entable
storage closets on site for resident use.
The project has been designed with a parkin g ratio of 1 .7 per unit which exceeds one
parking spot per bedroom. Based on past developm ent experience this ratio has proven to
be more than sufficient parking for such a development.
The site plan include s street side parallel par king along Pioneer Trail and a llows for the
future addition of parallel parking
on Uptown Boulevard if the City determines that is
appropriate.
Roofs
Roofline variations will be used to reduce the scale of the buildings an d to create interest.
The roofing materials will include composite shingles (30 year minimum), and some standing
seam metal roofing located and predominant corners and entrances.
Landscaping
Landscape will be in th e form of multi-leveled vegetation. Landscaping will consist of trees,
shrubs and ground cover. The landscaping pla n will meet or exceed the current standards
required by Section 5 .2 of the Zo ning Ordina nce. Lan dscaping a long Uptown Boulevard
and Pioneer Trail will meet or exceed the Overlay requirements. There will also be additional
landscape and architectural focus at the intersection of Uptown Boulevard and Pioneer Trail
to accentuate the importance of that intersection.
Street and parking area fixtures
Street and pedestrian level lighting fixtures, signage, and street furnishings will be
compatible with the characteristics of other developments in the Overlay District.
Signs
Due to the density of this project an internally lit blade sign (attached to the building above
the first level) would be utilized as the main property sign. Other building signs will be more
informational and directi onal. The design of the signs will keep with the characte r of the
buildings and the Overlay District.
Flood Plain
No part of the property is within the flood plain. However, some off site utility work will take
place in the flood pla in to the west of the prop erty. Efforts will be made to mini mize any
damage to existing pla nt life. Stor m water det ention is expected to b e designed within the
storm water system and no surface detention pond will be required.
Utilities
Uptown Cedar Hill
7 of 16
All utilities will be placed below ground as required per the ordinance.
Comparison to Cedar Hill's March 2010 City Center Vision Plan
The March 2010 City Center Vision Plan put forth a conceptual plan for the City Center of Cedar
Hill. The p lan clarif ied the overall future dev elopment of Cedar Hill by creating three main
districts: Old Town, Mi dtown, and Uptown. The proposed Uptown Cedar Hill development will
occur at the intersection of Uptown Boulevard a nd Pioneer Trail in the center of the Midtown
district. Th e site is in a key cente r position at one of the largest in tersections. T his area is
designated at "Urban Center" in the Vision Plan.
The other key elements of the conceptual plan put forth in March 2010 are the decision to locate
the proposed transit sta tion at the northern edge of the Midtown District and to incorporate a
secondary circulator to connect the various hu bs in the City Center to the new tra nsit station.
The Circulator is proposed to have a stop at the corner of Uptown Boulevard and Pioneer Trail the main corner of this development site.
After reviewing the March 2010 Vision Plan, it became clear that the clubhouse a nd amenity
structure for the new residential pro ject needed to occur at this inter section so we have relocated it fr om its previous position . This allo wed the front door of the project t o be the focal
point on the main corne r. This a lso begins to a nchor and e stablish this critical cor ner in the
overall plan.
The proposed location of the Transit Station makes the Pioneer Trail frontage of our site even
more important. Pioneer Trail will n ow be a ma in pedestrian route from the Transit Station to
the Government Center and all the retail opportunities. With this new Vision in place, we raised
the height and mass of our proposed development along Pioneer to give a greater significance
to this pedestrian route. The building at the corner and along Pioneer Trail is the tallest and
highest den sity element in our dev elopment. The sidewalk area alon g Pioneer T rail will be
developed as an urban sidewalk with street tree s, benches, street lights, etc. Parallel parking
will be incorporated as well as a traffic calmin g device and to provide the necessary leasing
parking for the club facility.
The Land Use and Urban Form Concept Plan (f igure C.2 in the Vision Plan - see included) also
indicate a secondary connection fro m our site t o the existing Wal-Mart site and a future small
park to the south of the Wal-Mart. We have made a purposeful effort to develop that connection
through our site by deve loping the north-south drive in a mo re formal street-like configuration to
allow for this potential future connection.
We believe our proposed solution is very compatible with the goals of the Vision Plan. Although
the Vision Plan might indicate a denser and more urban solution for this key site, we believe that
our solution provides a n appropriate development solution both in scale and density given the
existing conditions of the area stree ts and existi ng retail dev elopment. We also be lieve that as
the Vision P lan is imple mented in the years to come, the development has the "bo nes" to work
well with th e future re alization of the Vision Plan. For example, a s Uptown Boulevard is
transformed to a more urban and pedestrian oriented street, our development will be ver
y
compatible with the new environment.

Conclusion
In the b ig p icture, Upto wn Cedar Hill is on ly 3 % of the tot al 457 a cre Uptown area, but is a
critical piece of creating a mixed use environm ent. The 457 acres has all the use s for a mixed
use “New Urbanism” neighborhood. Office, retail, and entertainment uses are all with-in walking
distance to t he proposed Uptown c ommunity. Providing a high densit y residential component
to the area will make it a true mixe d use neighborhood meeting the definition of a new-urbanist
community.
Uptown Ce dar Hill’s proximity to office, publi c (Govern ment Center), retail, restaurant and
entertainment developments creates a true horizontal mixed use development. Within ¼ mile of
the site are the new office building (610 Uptown), the new Government Center, Super Wal-Mart,
Cinemark, 24 Hour Fitness, JC Penney, Re
d R obin, Chase Bank, Fridays, Hyatt Place,
Applebee’s, and several other retail and restaur ant choices. Within ½ mile of the site one can
reach the Uptown Village shopping center, t he Old Town Center and future lo cation of th e
transit station. Per the proposed Vision Plan, mixed use is a need in this area of Ced ar Hill and
Uptown Cedar Hill’s upscale apartments is the last piece to this puzzle.

SUBJECT:
Case #10-24 Zoning Change Request
Development to allow Multi-Family uses
DATE:
December 21, 2010
from
LR
to
Planned
The following report is an updated version of the report that went to the Planning
and Zoning Commission on December 7, 2010.
APPROVAL PROCESS: This is a proposed amendment to the Zoning Ordinance Map.
The P&Z and City Council are required to conduct a public hearing before
considering any amendment to the Zoning Ordinance. Should the PD zoning be
approved, development on the property will be subject to the “Concept Plan” and
the standards specified in the PD Ordinance. Construction can commence after the
property after it is platted and the P&Z has conducted a public hearing and
approved a Site Plan that is consistent with the approve “Concept Plan” and PD
standards. After the establishments of the PD district no further zoning approvals are
required by the City Council.
ITEM SUMMARY: The applicant is proposing to rezone approximately 13.44
acres from “LR” – Local Retail District to “PD” – Planned Development District
and “UT” – Uptown Overlay District, generally to amend the development
standards to allow for a development of a gated 355 unit, 3 story apartment
complex. Currently, multi-family is not allowed on the subject property.
On November 25, 2008, the City Council conducted a public hearing and
instructed Staff to prepare a draft ordinance changing the zoning for a
similar rezoning case. The approval was contingent upon certain revisions to
the ordinance exhibits, which were not done. Therefore, the subject property
retained its current zoning of “LR” – Local Retail District within the “UT” –
Uptown Overlay District. Since then the City has adopted a new
Comprehensive Plan and City Center Vision Plan.
December 3, 2010 (Revised Submittal)
ZONING NOTIFICATION SIGNS: The applicant has posted notification signs on the
subject property, as specified within Section 2.3 of the City of Cedar Hill Zoning
Ordinance.
Subject Property:
Subject Property: “LR” – Local Retail District (retail and office
uses) and UT - Uptown Overlay District (mixed use)

Discussion: Under the current zoning ordinance, multi-family uses are not allowed
within the “LR” – Local Retail District. The rezoning request is to consider a concept
plan and adopt development standards that differ from the Zoning Ordinance’s
Multi-family and Uptown Overlay Districts.
PROPOSED ZONING: The applicant is proposing development standards for the
subject property that differ from the Multi-family Residential District standards
specified in the Zoning Ordinance. Additionally, the applicant is proposing a greater
density (28 units per acre in lieu of 18 units per acre) than specified with a PD zoning
district. The City Council may approve a greater density upon finding that the
proposed project is of superior design and amenities. The following is a comparison
of the proposed PD standards and the Multi-family Residential Standards specified in
the Cedar Hill Zoning Ordinance.

CITY CENTER VISION PLAN:
The City Center Vision Plan is the initial phase of the visioning process to being a
sustainable community and provides a catalyst for a shift in development patterns in
and around the City Center area, to be more pedestrian oriented, environmentally
friendly and economically viable. Additionally, this document is be used to initiate
and facilitate discussions to maximize the potential for the regional commuter rail
line and City Center Development to help the Best Southwest area and the North
Texas region meet the mobility, energy and emissions challenges. Given that the
visioning process is underway to develop a refined vision of each of the districts:
Uptown, Midtown and Old Town, as well as test the City Center Vision Plan against
market realities. Staff has compared the general concepts within the City Center
Vision Plan with the proposed PD Concept Plan below.
Land Use /Urban Form
The Land Use and Urban form section of the City Center Plan shows subject property
to be within the Urban Center District. This district suggests mixed uses with emphasis
on employment intensive and transit supportive uses including office, commercial
and lodging uses. As well as active ground level uses, including retail and restaurant
uses, required along pedestrian priority streets. The proposed concept plan only
shows one land use component and not mixes of land uses without direct
connection to public streetscapes, which is suggested by the City Center Plan. The
proposed PD concept plan is not consistent the Land Use and Urban form section of
the City Center Vision Plan.
Building Type
Within the City Center Vision Plan building types are suggested to be mixed use
building types with ground-level storefronts and building entries. These buildings
should be 4-8 stories tall aligned along public sidewalks with little or no setbacks.
The proposed concept plan shows the club house with storefront windows located
at the corner of Uptown Blvd. and Pioneer Trail to allow the front door of the project
to face the public realm. However the PD concept plan has one land use
component, multi-family use, 3 story building scale with no storefronts. The proposed
PD concept plan is not consistent to the building type and scale portion of the City
Center Vision Plan.
Parking
In regards to parking configuration, the plan suggests on street parallel or angled
parking with required parking located beside or to the rear of the building. The
proposed concept plan shows parking behind the proposed building, with parallel
parking along Pioneer Trail. The parallel parking provides additional parking while
providing pedestrians comfort along Pioneer Trail. The proposed PD concept plan is
consistent with the parking configuration portion of the City Center Vision Plan.
STREETS AND BLOCKS PLAN
The Streets and Blocks section of the City Center Plan shows Pioneer Trail and
Uptown Boulevard as “Pedestrian Priority Streets”, which are designed to provide a
high level of pedestrian comfort, access and safety. The proposed concept plans
shows the streetscape along Pioneer Trail to have some pedestrian amenities to
help promote pedestrian activity and comfort such as 6 foot wide sidewalks,
pedestrian lighting, and landscaped columns. Additionally, the applicant has shown
an intermittent hedge along Uptown Boulevard to improve the pedestrian comfort
on Uptown Blvd., while also providing a traffic calming effect on vehicular traffic.
The PD concept plan is consistent with this portion of the streets and block plan
specified in the City Center Vision plan.
The Streets and Blocks Plan of the City Center Plan suggests development blocks
should be scaled to accommodate a mix of land uses and potential for the site to
be developed into blocks with public streets allowing for connections to be made
to the site to the north. The proposed PD concept plan shows the subject property
will be gated, which doesn’t allow for Public Street connections, and therefore
provides limited pedestrian activity. The access and circulation of the proposed PD
concept Plan is not consistent with this portion of the City Center Vision plan.
PUBLIC SPACE NETWORK
The Public Space Network Concept Plan which shows possible location for public
squares of plazas, greenways, and natural areas along streams and drainage ways,
and an expanded network of on and off street trails and pedestrian friendly
streetscapes. The proposed conceptual plan does not show any public spaces or
natural areas; however there is an 8’ wide connection to a future trail with a gate
located north of the subject property. Since, the open spaces within the proposed
apartment complex are private/ gated; the open space shown does not contribute
towards the overall public space network.
CONFORMANCE TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan was
adopted after the consideration of the PD concept plan that was similar to this one
in November 2008. The Comprehensive Plan lists factors to be considered when a
rezoning is being considered within a significantly developed area:
•
Conformance with Desired Land Use: The Future Land Use Plan (FLUP)
designates the subject property for mixed use primarily non-residential. Mixed
Use Primarily Non-Residential is a mixture of non-residential and residential
uses with the non-residential component comprising a greater percentage of
the development than the residential component. Non-residential uses
should be limited to planned business campus developments allowing office,
retail, light assembly and warehouse distributions centers and public uses.
•
Impact on Infrastructure: The water master plan, sewer master plan, and
thoroughfare plan are all based on the anticipated land uses as shown on
the Future Land Use Plan. The proposed zoning should have a minimal
impact on the existing and planned infrastructure in the area.
•
Impact on Public Facilities/Services: Similar to infrastructure, the public
facilities/services are planned for based on the anticipated land uses as
shown on the Future Land Use Plan. The proposed zoning should have
minimal impact on public facilities and services such as schools, fire and
police, libraries, parks and sanitation services.
•
Compatibility with Existing Potential Adjacent Land Uses: A majority of the
property surrounding the subject property is intense retail and office uses
located south and east of the subject property. The proposed residences
would be in keeping with the bulk and scale of the surrounding buildings.
•
Intensity Plan: The intensity plan is to serve as a guide to the appropriate
degree of use for residential and non-residential uses. Intensity is intended to
encompass a variety of factors including dwelling units per acres, volume of
traffic generated, and size and scale of buildings. According to the Intensity
Plan, the subject area is designated as a Level 6, which focuses around transit
stops and the City Center. Single family units should primarily be limited to
those already existing, with the majority of the residential units consisting of
mixed used development and town homes. A mixture of retail, office, civic,
public and open spaces are appropriate for this level. It should be notated
that pedestrian orientation and design are key. Although the applicant has
provided several pedestrian amenities, there still isn’t a non-residential
component to the proposed zoning request.
CONFORMANCE TO THE MASTER PARK PLAN: The proposed rezone does not conflict
with the Master Park Plan.
CONFORMANCE TO THE MASTER THOROUGHFARE PLAN: The proposed rezone does
not conflict with the Master Thoroughfare Plan.
OPPOSTION TO OR SUPPORT OF REQUEST: Staff has not received any comments in
support or opposition to this request
SUMMARY:
The Proposed PD concept plan is not consistent with the Comprehensive Plan or the
City Center Vision Plan. In regards to the City Center Vision Plan the inconsistencies
include the Land Use/Urban Form and the Street and Urban Blocks Plan. The
proposed PD concept plan does not show a 4-8 story vertical mixed used land use,
which is suggested by the City Center Plan. The fact the proposed PD concept plan
shows a gated community, conflicts with the intent of smaller block perimeters and
the idea to promote pedestrian activity.
In regards to the Comprehensive Plan the inconsistencies include the Future Land
Use Plan and the Intensity Plan. The proposed PD concept plan doesn’t show an
intense mixed use primarily non-residential component.

PLATO'S CLOSET
Good evening. We are John and Joan Huggins, and we have come to you today to request a
Conditional Use Permit for our intent to open a Plato's Closet store in the Cedar Hill Village
Shopping Center. This is a business franchised from the Winmark Corporation of Minneapolis,
Minnesota.
Winmark Corporation (WINA on Nasdaq) is the parent company for Plato's Closet, Once Upon A
Child, Music Go Round and Play It Again Sports. The combined revenue generated by the
franchise locations for the four brands was about $607 Million in 2009. Plato's Closet
accounted for $206 Million - a figure that will increase sharply again this year with 35 new
stores opening in 2010. In a time where many retailers are closing, there have already been 15
signed franchise agreements for stores slated to open in 2011 and at least 30 more are
expected to be signed by year end.
h
The proposed Cedar Hill location will be the 1i Plato's Closet store in the Metroplex. Several
of these locations are consistently in the top quartile of the Plato's Closet system. Statewide
Plato's Closet has 27 stores in operation and their cumulative sales numbers are trending up
10% over last year. With over 280 Store locations throughout the United States and Canada,
Plato's Closet is the only national teen and young adult retail store of its kind - focusing on the
buying and selling of gently used, brand-name clothing and accessories.
Though not your typical secondhand clothing store, it will unquestionably fill a distinct niche in
the retail marketplace. We buy and sell only items that have been in the retail stores within the
past 12 to 18 months, therefore satisfying the wish list for trendy, brand-name apparel and the
availability of it in virtually every teen's closet.
Typically our core customers will be females ranging in the 12 to 24 year old age group. The
secondary customers following closely behind will be females (including moms) ranging in the
25 to 45 year old age group. And last but certainly not least, our third customer group will
consist of males in the 12 to 24 year old age group.
We are attaching several photos of Plato's Closet stores, and a preliminary sketch of the Cedar
Hill store floor plan for your information. The design and decor will be controlled by Winmark
Corporation, and our store will look much like the ones in the enclosed pictures. The business
involves both buying and selling merchandise from and to the general public. Our clients will
bring their gently used clothing to the store location. We will selectively choose the goods that

fit our target market and offer a price based on condition and salability. The Win mark point of
sale system keeps an extensive database of the items we are most interested in. Items are
purchased for cash and immediately go into store inventory. At any given time the bulk of the
store's inventory will be on the sale room floor. We will have a small storage area in the rear of
the store for seasonal goods and we may have to use off-site storage, as well. We do not
anticipate using the sidewalk area for any of our sales or storage needs.
This business is community driven and will be very involved in the local schools and events.
Most importantly, Plato's Closet provides jobs to high school and college students, which is
typically an age group that is challenged to find employment - particularly in today's economy.
The average store employs 10-14 part time students in addition to 3-4 more at a management
level. We plan our hours of operation to be 10:00 am to 8:00 pm, Monday through Saturday,
and noon to 6:00 pm on Sundays.
In conclusion, we would like to mention the obvious fact that this is an environmentally friendly
business, in that we are recycling quality clothing for further use. Our business allows families
to clean out their closets, as well as allowing others to stay trendy and fashionable in a fashion
pressured society.

SUBJECT:
Case #10-25 CUP 213 N. Hwy 67, Suite 700-A. – Second Hand Store to
operate within a “LR” – Local Retail District
DATE:
December 21, 2010
APPROVAL PROCESS: The recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission
will be forwarded to the City Council for consideration on January 11, 2011.
ITEM SUMMARY: The applicant is requesting a conditional use permit to operate a
Used Merchandise, Furniture, Antique Shop, Rummage, Second Hand Store (Indoor
Only) within the “LR” – Local Retail District, located at 213 N. Highway 67, Suite 700A. The applicant has indicated this would be a second hand clothing store that
only buys and sells items that have been in the retail stores within the past 12-18
months. The letter of intent outlines the hours of operation to be 10:00am – 8:00pm,
Monday through Saturday, and noon to 6:00pm on Sundays. There will be no
outside sales or storage
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the proposed conditional
use permit, as presented.
November 22, 2010 (Complete Application)
ZONING NOTIFICATION SIGNS: As specified in Section 2.3 of the City of Cedar Hill
Zoning Ordinance, the applicant posted notification signs on the subject property.
Subject Property:
“LR” – Local Retail District (retail, and office uses) and “UT”Uptown Overlay District (mixed use)
North
(retail, and office uses) and
“UT”Uptown
Overlay
District (mixed use)
JC Penny Department Store
South
(retail, and office uses)
and “UT”- Uptown Overlay
Residences
East
Cedar Hill Village Strip Mall and
Chase Bank
West
24 Hour Fitness Club
Discussion: The Zoning Ordinance requires a conditional use permit (CUP) for
second hand stores within the Local Retail Zoning District. The CUP process verifies
the proposed use is compatible with its surrounding uses, and mitigates any
negative impacts that maybe produced. The intent of the “LR” – Neighborhood
Services zoning district is to provide neighborhood and/or local shopping facilities for
retail sales of good and services, shopping centers and regional malls serving the
entire community.
ACCESS/CIRCULATION:
Adjacent Streets:
Cedar Hill Village , 60 Right-of-Way, Class V Local Street
Internal Circulation: The subject property fronts on Cedar Hill Village which feeds in
to Highway 67 frontage Road as well as Clancy Nolan Road.
LANDSCAPING REQUIREMENTS:
Landscaping requirements were approved
previously with the associated case. After an inspection of the site, all required
landscaping is present.
PARKING: The Zoning Ordinance requires the applicant to provide 1 parking space
for every 200 square feet of gross floor area for retail uses. The existing parking
spaces provided are sufficient to absorb the proposed retails uses.
CONFORMANCE TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Future Land Use Plan (FLUP)
designates the subject property for retail uses. Retail uses are typically providing
merchandise for retail sale, including shopping malls, shopping centers, restaurants,
grocery stores. These uses are generally permitted within retail districts.
The
Comprehensive Plan lists factors to be considered when a change of use is being
considered within a significantly developed area:
•
Conformance with Desired Land Use: Currently, the future land use plan
shows the subject property as retail uses. The proposed second hand facility
uses are very similar to the types of uses found in Local Retail Districts . The
proposed use is generally consistent with the future land use of public /semipublic uses.
•
Impact on Infrastructure: The water master plan, sewer master plan, and
thoroughfare plan are all based on the anticipated land uses as shown on
the Future Land Use Plan. The proposed use should have a minimal impact
on the existing and planned infrastructure in the area.
O:\CASES\2010\2010-25 CUP Plato Closet\Staff Report\Staff Report 12.21.10.docx
•
Impact on Public Facilities/Services: Similar to infrastructure, the public
facilities/services are planned for based on the anticipated land uses as
shown on the Future Land Use Plan. The proposed use should have minimal
impact on public facilities and services such as schools, fire and police,
libraries, parks and sanitation services.
•
Compatibility with Existing Potential Adjacent Land Uses: A majority of the
property surrounding the subject property is retail in nature except for the
residences located south of the subject property. The proposed second
hand store would be in keeping with the bulk and scale of the surrounding
buildings.
•
Intensity Plan: The intensity plan is to serve as a guide to the appropriate
degree of use for residential and non-residential uses. Intensity is intended to
encompass a variety of factors including dwelling units per acres, volume of
traffic generated, and size and scale of buildings. According to the Intensity
Plan, the subject area is designated as a Level 5, which includes a
combination of retail uses and office campus uses. The proposed use does
not conflict with the intensity plan.
CONFORMANCE TO THE MASTER PARK PLAN: The proposed rezone does not conflict
with the Master Park Plan.
CONFORMANCE TO THE MASTER THOROUGHFARE PLAN: The proposed rezone does
not conflict with the Master Thoroughfare Plan.
OPPOSTION TO OR SUPPORT OF REQUEST: Staff has not received calls in opposition or
support of the request.

d. Accessory Buildings, especially in non-residential areas
e. Elder-care facilities within residential areas to comply with state
standards

After discussion, Mayor Franke suggested a review of one or two of the
recommended changes during a briefing session instead of all at once.

mandated by law is that of notification. This is required in any change of the
Zoning Code.
II.
City Manager Reports:
a. City Council Calendar/Upcoming Events
City Manager Sims reviewed the City Council calendar, emphasizing the
following:
Friday, December 24, 2010 – City Offices closed for the Christmas Holiday.
Monday, December 27, 2010 – City Offices closed for the Christmas
Holiday.
Sims informed City Council another City pioneer, Dr. Frank Crawford, will be

IV.
Conduct a briefing session to discuss agenda items for 7:00 p.m. regular
meeting.
City Manager Sims reviewed the meeting agenda and asked various Staff
Members to review their agenda items.
A.
Assistant City Manager Melissa Stephens briefed City Council on the
changes to the Code of Ordinances, amending Chapter 18, Article II, regarding
Utility Billing operations. She itemized the following corrections:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Address change
Return check charges
Straight-lining prosecution
Leak adjustment
Increasing inspection fees
3
December 14, 2010
Stephens noted they are in the process of doing a comprehensive review with
legal counsel on the entire utility billing ordinance. However, the current
changes for approval needed immediate attention.
City Council recommended placing a notice on the City’s website alerting
citizens to the charges being implemented.
B.
Stephens also presented a resolution authorizing the Cities Aggregation
Power Project, Inc. to negotiate an extension to the current electric supply and
necessary related services agreement. This gives Cedar Hill the opportunity to go
out to see what the market will provide. She noted there is no obligation and
verified that with the City’s legal counsel.
C.
Another item brought to City Council by Stephens is the establishing of a
Citywide Identity Theft Prevention Program. This is required by the Federal Trade
Commission. The proposed resolution sets parameters to be followed. Stephens
stated Staff will constantly look at certain practices to prevent identity theft. The
approval of the resolution meets the year-end obligation.
D.
There was discussion on the approval of the Fiscal Year 2010-2011 Street
Overlay list.
Mayor Franke asked for prioritizing Clark Road as many citizen comments have
been received on that particular street. He stated that the County’s Road and
Bridge program may be decreased or deleted. If that goes away, it will directly
affect the street overlay project.
E.
Mayor Pro Tem Haydin spoke regarding the appointment of Ray Stroh to
the Board of Adjustment and Appeals. He gave a confidence vote in Stroh’s
ability to be an asset to the Board.
F.
Finance Director Hardy Browder briefed City Council on the contract with
Wells Fargo Bank for commercial credit card services. He stated the most
impressive thing about the card is the ability to control the credit limits as well as
the vendors where they are used. That allows the deleting of many different
cards, moving to a single card. It gives flexibility on establishing limits in

Action Requested: Consider appointment
Agenda Item Wording: Consider appointment of Michael Petty as Alternate Judge of the Cedar Hill
Municipal Court.
Summary of Item: During the tenure of former Municipal Court Judge Craig Hopkins, the City also
engaged the services of two alternate judges, Elke Daniel and Mike Mattocks, in August, 2002. After
the departure of Craig Hopkins, the City Council appointed Elke Daniel as Municipal Court Judge in
April, 2007. Alternate Judge Mike Mattocks resigned his position because he was moving to Fort
Worth.
Also in April 2007, to respond to the need for an alternate judge, the City contracted with Judge
Scott Kurth, Municipal Court Judge for the City of DeSoto. Judge Kurth, in addition to functioning as
the Municipal Court Judge for DeSoto, also serves on the bench for several other cities which limits
his availability to Cedar Hill. The fact that Cedar Hill has not had another alternate judge has
placed constraints on Judge Daniel’s ability to take vacation, etc.
The City advertised for the alternate judge position from February to June, 2010. Staff reviewed the
applicants and chose not to pursue filling the position at that time and did not forward any of the
candidates for City Council consideration. Former Justice of the Peace Mike Petty has applied and
expressed an interest in serving as an alternate judge. Staff recommends the appointment of Mike
Petty as an Alternate Municipal Court Judge for two years.
Recommended Action: Appoint Michael Petty as Alternate Judge for the Cedar Hill Municipal Court.
