NEW BUSINESS
PARTIAL REPLAT OF COUNTRY GROVE TOWNHOMES, SECTION ONE, A PRO-
POSED SUBDIVISION OF 0.7036 ACRES OUT OF THE H.T. & B.R.R. CO.
SURVEY, SECTION ONE A -310, U. S. HOME CORPORATION, OWNER
Chairman Lentz asked Staff for comments and City Manager DeShazer
replied that this was a previously platted section which had a
problem with a 2' building line for which a variance had been
obtained. Now, the title company has notified U. S. Homes that
they will not issue a clear title until this section has been
replatted. This replat will put the 2' back to a 10' utility
easement.
There followed a lengthy discussion between the Commission,
Staff, Rick Gadd of U. S. Homes and Lloyd Smith of Bernard John-
son. State law regarding the platting process was discussed and
whether this particular plat should be addressed as a replat or
an amended plat.
It was moved by Benny Frank, seconded by Helen Beckman, that the
partial replat of Country Grove Townhomes, Section One, be ap-
proved with the stipulation that the City Attorney look at State
law regarding the platting process and advise if the correct
procedure has been followed.
Further discussion continued regarding public hearings, setting
precedence, whether the Property Association, which owns the 2'
in question in the common area, needs to sign the plat, and the
Commission's obligation to sign the plat at this meeting.
It was suggested the motion be amended to defer signing of the
plat until written confirmation has been received from the City
Attorney that all necessary procedures have been complied with.
The maker and seconder agreed to so amend the motion.
The motion passed 4 to 2, with James Garner and Al Lentz voting
against.

TEXAS, U. S. HOME CORPORATION, OWNER
Chairman Lentz informed Ms. Henry of Vernon G. Henry & Associates
that the Commission has made it a policy not to review plats
which have not been signed by the Drainage District. Ms. Henry
gave the Commission copies which had the Drainage District's
signatures as of January 14, 1990.
Chairman Lentz also related that preliminary plats are now
stamped approved rather than being individually signed by the
Commission.
In reviewing the plat, the Commission considered the master plan,
densities, and parking. The Commission advised Ms. Henry of
reserves that will need to be allowed on the final plat along
North Peach Hollow Circle and Teakwood Lane.
It was moved by Helen Beckman, seconded by Mary Starr, that the
preliminary plat of Country Grove Townhomes, Section Five, be
approved with the stipulation that the final plat show the re-
quired 1' reserves along North ;'each Hollow Circle and Teakwood
Lane.
