12. Consider and Possible Action on Review of Zoning, Subdivision and Building
Ordinances.
A) Jerry Jenkins indicated there is a situation, it has to do with ETJ subdivisions
of more than 6 lots without building a paved road. There is a conflict with
County guidelines and City guidelines. The attorney has advised that we caa
no longer grant a variance according to the current ordinance.
Jerry Jenkins indicated he will call Denton County tomorrow and. set up a
meeting with Kathy Allcorn to discuss this. Lake Ray Roberts Planning and
Zoning does not have a problem with the 2 acre lots, the City of Sanger requires
the lots to be 3.5 acres for a private road to be allowed.
Commission looked at a map of the Lake Ray Roberts Zoning district.
City Manager indicated in the past, any developer would have had to build a 31'
concrete street. We had some requests, and the Council developed these
regulations with. strict guidelines. The variance is for a private road, this could
be gravel or whatever. He asked them to keep in mind that someone bas to
maintain that road. Ifwe start messing with that ordinance, it could possible
cause problems.
Continued discussion regarding the ordinance.
Jerry Jenkins indicated a variance request on the street requirements will be
coming before the commission soon.
Discussion regarding the proposed development.
B) City Manager indicated the Commission bas requested an ordinaace
prohibiting outside sales or storage of packaged beverages. He explained that
we currently have an ordinance prohibiting sales and storage in loading zones.
Currently the police department does not enforce this ordinance in regards to
ice, coke machines, newspaper stands, etc. If we push to do one specific thing,
the police cannot do selective enforcement. The City Attorney felt it was
already in place, but that we would not have a problem with beer and wine
being sold on the sidewalks. We could enforce the ordinance right now ifwe
wanted to.
Discussion regarding outside sales and contacting T ABC for their guidelines in
this area.
13. Meeting Adjourned.
