FOR SPECIFIC USE PERMIT FOR A SHORT-TERM

[00:05:01]

RENTAL USE WITHIN A PLAN DEVELOPMENT SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING THREE ZONING DISTRICT LOCATED AT 2 2 0 CHESTERFIELD CIRCLE.

PROPERTY ID 2 2 8 8 5 3.

OWNERS, MEGAN AND ALEXANDER HILLEN ZDC 65 2 0 2 6 SENIOR PLAN, GOOD EVENING COMMISSION.

UM, STAFF RECEIVED THIS APPLICATION ON THE JUNE 3RD, 2026 SUBMITTAL CYCLE REQUESTING A SUP SPECIFIC USE PERMIT TO OPERATE A SHORT TERM RENTAL, WHICH IS AS TR USE LOCATED AT TWO 20 CHESTERFIELD CIRCLE.

THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS LOCATED WITHIN THE PLAN DEVELOPMENT SINGLE FAMILY THREE ZONING DISTRICT, WHICH IS UM, THE WIND CHASE ADDITION AND IS APPROXIMATELY AND IS SITUATED APPROXIMATELY 0.16 ACRES.

UM, THE SUBJECT PROPERTY CONSISTS OF A PRIMARY STRUCTURE OF 23, APPROXIMATELY 2300 SQUARE FEET WITH FOUR BEDROOMS AND ENOUGH OFF, UH, OFF STREET PARKING WILL BE LOCATED, UM, IN THE GARAGE AND DRIVEWAY.

ELLIS COUNTY DOES IDENTIFY THE SUBJECT PROPERTY AS A HOMESTEAD AND IT IS ONE OF THE CONDITIONS ON THE STAFF REPORT THAT THE APPLICANT SHALL HAVE THIS, UH, EXEMPTION REMOVED PRIOR TO THE APPROVAL OF THE SHORT-TERM RENTAL REGISTRATION APPLICATION, THE APPLICANT HAS NOT BEEN OPERATING THE SUBJECT PROPERTY AS A SHORT-TERM RENTAL.

THERE WERE TWO NUISANCE RELATED CALLS THAT WERE MADE TO THE WAXAHATCHEE PD WITHIN THE PAST 12 MONTHS INVOLVING THE PREVIOUS OWNER.

UM, THE EMERGENCY CONTACT IS LOCATED ABOUT EIGHT MILES FROM THE SUBJECT PROPERTY STAFF SEND OUT 88 LETTERS WITHIN THE 500 FOOT BUFFER.

UM, AND STAFF RECEIVE SEVEN LETTERS OF OPPOSITION AND NO LETTERS OF SUPPORT WITH, UM, WITH, UH, WITH TWO LETTERS WITHIN THE 200 FOOT BUFFER AND STAFF AND THE APPLICANT ARE HERE IF Y'ALL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

THANK YOU, YOUR HONOR.

ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? I DO.

UM, SO ONE OF THE LETTERS AT LEAST WAS, UM, MENTIONED ITS PROXIMITY TO THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.

HOW MANY OTHER SHORT TERM RENTALS, IF YOU KNOW, DO WE HAVE? THAT WOULD BE THAT CLOSE TO A SCHOOL RIGHT OFF TOP OF MY HEAD.

THERE'S ONE OFF OF SECOND AVENUE, I BELIEVE.

UM, I CAN THINK OF ONE THAT'S NEAR MARVIN ON COLLEGE STREET? YES.

ANY MORE QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? WELL, WILL THEY HAVE TO GO BACK AND PAY THE UH, UH, HOTEL OCCUPANCY TAXES ON THAT PROPERTY? THEY HAVE NOT BEEN OPERATING.

IS THE APPLICANT HERE? YES MA'AM.

HONOR, WOULD YOU COME UP AND STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD PLEASE? YES, MEGAN HILLEN, UH, 3 0 8 NORTH FLAT STREET, WAXAHATCHEE, TEXAS.

SO I AM LOCAL.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

SO IS THERE ANYTHING YOU'D LIKE TO TELL US ABOUT YOUR APPLICATION? UH, YES MA'AM.

I GUESS ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I JUST WANNA ADDRESS IS THE CONCERN WITH THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL AND WHAT WE MIGHT BE DOING ABOUT IT, IF THAT'S OKAY? SURE.

UM, SO FOR SECURITY AND GUEST MONITORING, WE ARE GONNA BE USING EXTERIOR RING CAMERAS.

SO WE WILL HAVE THEM, UM, SET UP WITH REAL TIME ALERTS AND DIRECTLY TO MY PHONE.

AND THEN ALSO BECAUSE OF THE CONCERNS WITH THE NEIGHBORS WITH THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IN CLOSE PROXIMITY, WE'RE ACTUALLY GONNA BE IMPLEMENTING A THIRD PARTY GUEST SCREENING SOFTWARE CALLED TRUVIA.

AND BASICALLY WHAT THAT DOES IS IT LOOKS INTO THE GUEST IDENTITY VERIFICATION.

IT ALSO DOES RISK SCREENING, IT DOES DAMAGE PROTECTION, CRIMINAL BACKGROUND, UH, CHECK AS WELL AS SEX OFFENDER CHECK.

AND ONLY GUESTS WITH A CLEAN SCREENING ARE GONNA BE APPROVED AT THE PROPERTY.

THAT'S GREAT.

UM, SO DO I UNDERSTAND THAT YOU JUST PURCHASED THIS HOME AND SO THE NUISANCE RELATED CALLS THAT ON MENTIONED WEREN'T YOUR CALLS CORRECT? YEAH, WE CLOSED ON MAY 7TH.

GOTCHA.

OKAY, PERFECT.

IS THIS YOUR FIRST SHORT TERM RENTAL? UH, MY AUNT ACTUALLY OWNS ONE IN RIO DOSO, NEW MEXICO, WHERE MY MOTHER'S LOCATED AND I PROPERTY MANAGE THAT.

I MEAN, SHE LITERALLY DOES NOTHING AND WE'VE BEEN OPERATING SINCE LAST NOVEMBER.

SO THIS WILL BE, UM, ONE LOCAL HERE FOR US.

'CAUSE WE LIVE HERE SO WE'LL BE PERSONALLY MANAGING IT AND GOING TO IT BETWEEN EVERY GUEST AND KEEPING UP WITH THE UPKEEP AND THE MAINTENANCE AND ALL THAT STUFF PERSONALLY

[00:10:01]

OURSELVES.

THAT'S GREAT.

I HAVE A QUESTION.

UM, I THINK I HEARD IT MENTIONED, I'M SORRY, I THINK I HEARD IT MENTIONED ABOUT AMPLE PARKING.

UM, I'M VERY FAMILIAR WITH THIS NEIGHBORHOOD IN THAT STREET.

HOW WOULD YOU DEFINE AMPLE PARKING? BECAUSE I DON'T THINK THAT'S THE CASE.

SO WE HAVE A, UM, TWO CAR GARAGE.

MM-HMM.

AND THEN WE ALSO HAVE TWO SPOTS IN THE DRIVEWAY MM-HMM .

AND WE ACTUALLY HAVE A, A FLAT WORK PERMIT WHERE WE ARE EXTENDING THE DRIVEWAY TO FIT ANOTHER CAR.

'CAUSE WE'RE ONLY ALLOWED TO HAVE FOUR CARS.

SO WE'LL ACTUALLY BE ABLE TO FIT FIVE CARS, SO TWO IN THE GARAGE AND THREE ON THE DRIVEWAY BECAUSE THAT STREET IS EXTREMELY CONGESTED.

SO WE ARE TRYING TO CREATE ADDITIONAL PARKING WHERE THAT'S NOT GONNA BE A PROBLEM.

AND, UM, WE WILL NOT ALLOW STREET PARKING WHATSOEVER.

SO IF I SEE THAT ON THE CAMERAS, THAT WILL OBVIOUSLY BE ADDRESSED BY ME TO OUR GUEST.

AND REAL QUICK, UH, PART OF THE ORDINANCE REQUIRES, UM, NO OFF STREET PARKING.

AND SO THAT IS A, A CODE VIOLATION IF THERE IS OFF STREET PARKING AND THEY COULD LOSE THEIR SCR REGISTRATION IF THEY DO HAVE ALLOW FOR A CODE VI, UH, UM, OFF STREET PARKING.

HOWEVER, UH, THE MENTION OF A FIFTH SPOT RIGHT NOW, THE ORDINANCE THAT IS BEING PROPOSED HAS A MAXIMUM OF FOUR VEHICLES TO BE PARKED ON THE SUBJECT PROPERTY, WHICH LIMITS THE TOTAL NUMBER OF GUESTS TO 10.

CORRECT.

UM, IF P AND Z WOULD LIKE TO ALLOW FOR FIVE VEHICLES, WE WOULD NEED THAT AS PART OF THE ORDINANCE, BUT WE WON'T, I'M SORRY.

I DIDN'T MEAN TO CONFUSE YOU.

WE WILL NOT ALLOW FIVE CARS.

WE WILL ONLY BE ALLOWING FOUR CARS.

WE'RE JUST MAKING ADDITIONAL SPACE.

WE JUST WANNA MAKE SURE THAT'S CLEAR THAT YEAH.

THE ORDINANCE WILL ONLY ALLOW FOR A MAXIMUM OF FOUR CARS YES.

ON THE SITE ACCORDING TO THE SITE PLAN.

AND THAT'S ACTUALLY IN OUR GUEST RULES, A MAXIMUM OF FOUR VEHICLES.

ANY MORE QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? HAVE YOU, UH, TALKED TO ANY OF THE NEIGHBORS OR ANY OF THE HAVE, HOW HAVE THOSE CONVERSATIONS GONE? UH, SO I GOT THE OPPOSITION LETTERS AND I WROTE LETTERS THAT WERE PERSONALIZED TO EACH OPPOSITION LETTER THAT I HAD.

I WENT AND HAND DELIVERED THEM TO THEIR HOMES AND THE CONVERSATIONS WERE EXTREMELY QUICK.

UH, TWO OF THEM ANSWERED THE DOOR, SO I GOT TO MEET TWO PEOPLE, TWO OTHER PEOPLE DID NOT ANSWER THE DOOR, SO I PUT THE NOTE IN THEIR MAILBOX AND THE ONES THAT I GOT TO SPEAK TO, I JUST INTRODUCED MYSELF.

I LET THEM KNOW THAT, UH, WE WERE THE, YOU KNOW, OWNERS OF THE HOME AND KIND OF WHAT OUR INTENTIONS WITH THE HOME WERE.

AND THEY JUST KIND OF LIKE NODDED AND SAID, OKAY.

I ALSO PUT MY, UH, PHONE NUMBER IN THE LETTER SO THAT WAY THEY HAVE MY DIRECT PHONE NUMBER AND THEY CAN CONTACT ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS WHATSOEVER.

UH, SO I DIDN'T MAKE FIRST CONTACT, BUT IT WAS JUST BRIEF.

THEY KIND OF JUST NODDED AND SAID, OKAY.

WOULD YOU BE WILLING TO ADD TO YOUR RULES, UH, REGARDING PARKING THAT UH, YOU WON'T ALLOW CARS TO PARK WHERE THEY'RE BLOCKING THE SIDEWALK? YEAH, DEFINITELY.

IT'S A VIOLATION OF CITY ORDINANCE TO DO THAT.

BUT JUST SO IT'S ACTUALLY STATED IN YOUR, IN YOUR RULES.

I CAN DEFINITELY DO THAT.

A MOTION MOVE TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF ZDC SIX FIVE DASH 2026 AN SUP FOR AN STR SUBJECT TO THE CON SUBJECT TO THE CONDITIONS IN THE STAFF REPORT.

YEP.

YEAH, THAT NEIGHBORHOOD IS VERY CONGESTED, SO I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN BECAUSE CARS ARE PARKED LIKE WHERE THEIR NOSES ARE STICKING OUT IN THE STREET.

SO WE'RE, WE'RE GONNA AVOID THAT COMPLETELY.

I DON'T WANNA BE THAT NEIGHBOR.

GOTCHA.

UM, AND WANT TO STAY COMPLIANT.

AGENDA ITEM NUMBER 11, A PUBLIC HEARING ON A REQUEST BY JOSE CASTILLO FOR A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT FOR A MAJOR AUTO REPAIR SHOP USE WITHIN A COMMERCIAL ZONING DISTRICT.

NEXT IS

[11. Public Hearing on a request by Jose Castillo for a Specific Use Permit (SUP) for a Major Auto Repair Shop use within a Commercial (C) zoning district located at 407 W. Franklin (Property ID 170507) - Owner: Big Blue Truck, LLC (ZDC-57-2026).]

LOCATED AT 4 0 7 WEST FRANKLIN.

PROPERTY ID 1 7 0 5 7.

OWNER, BIG BLUE TRUCK, L-L-C-Z-D-C DASH 57 DASH 2 0 2 6.

CALEB, UH, GOOD EVENING COMMISSIONERS.

TONIGHT I'M PRESENTING ZDC 57 20 26 FOR A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT REQUEST FOR A MAJOR AUTO REPAIR USE LOCATED AT 4 0 7 WEST FRANKLIN, WHICH IS CURRENTLY LO UH, ZONE COMMERCIAL WHILE SITTING ON 0.1195 ACRES.

SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THE CITY OF WAXAHATCHEE ZONING ORDINANCE REQUIRES APPROVAL OF A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT TO ALLOW FOR A MAJOR AUTO REPAIR USE WITHIN A COMMERCIALLY ZONED, UH, DISTRICT.

AS SUCH, THE ITEM BEFORE EACH TODAY IS AN ITEM THAT CONCERNS ZONING.

COMPLIANCE PROPO PROPOSAL BEFORE EACH NIGHT IS A BUSINESS OWNER AS CASTILLO AUTO REPAIR AND THE BUSINESS HAS BEEN OPERATING ON SITE FOR, FROM WHAT I CAN GATHER, UM, AS A MAJOR AUTO REPAIR SHOP SINCE 2016, UH, WITHOUT A, UH, CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY OR CO.

UH, THE APPLICANT

[00:20:01]

HAS SUBMITTED A CO REQUEST ON APRIL 15TH, 2026.

HOWEVER, DUE TO THE USE IN QUESTION, THE CO WAS NOT GRANTED BECAUSE A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT MUST BE ISSUED PRIOR TO THE APPROVAL AND ISSUANCE OF A NEW CO UH, CO AUTO REPAIR IS A SPECIALIZED MAJOR AUTO REPAIR SHOP THAT MOSTLY CONCERNS ITSELF WITH ENGINE AND MECHANICAL REPAIRS, WHICH IS CONSISTENT WITH THE USE DEFINITION OF AN AUTO REPAIR SHOP MAJOR IN THE CITY OF WAXAHATCHEE ZONING ORDINANCE.

FOR GREATER INSIGHT ON THE FULL SCOPE OF THEIR SERVICES, YOU CAN REFERENCE THE APPLICANT'S OPERATIONAL PLAN IN YOUR PACKET.

THAT SHOULD BE NOTED.

HOWEVER, THAT THE USE HAS AND WILL NOT BE, IS THAT THE USE WILL NOT BE USED AT A TIRE SHOP NOR OFFER OIL CHANGE OR PAINT AND BODY WORK SERVICES.

AS NOTED IN THE OPERATIONAL PLAN, THE APPLICANT ALSO MADE IT KNOWN THAT NO CARS THAT ARE BEING SERVICED WILL BE STORED OUTSIDE.

HIS STAFF WILL ONLY SUPPORT THE OUTSIDE PARKING AREA FOR EMPLOYEE AND CUSTOMER PARKING ONLY.

UH, THE BUILDING WILL REMAIN AS IT EXISTS CURRENTLY WITH NO ADDITIONS OR CHANGES BEING PROPOSED AT THIS TIME.

UM, IN YOUR PACKET YOU'LL RECEIVE A SITE PLAN AND OPERATIONAL PLAN FOR YOUR REFERENCE AND TO COMPLY STATE LAW, WE SENT 29 NOTICES, UM, OUT TO THE ADJACENT PROPERTY OWNERS WITHIN 200 FEET OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY STAFF HAS RECEIVED ONE LETTER OF SUPPORT AND ONE LETTER OF OPPOSITION FOR THIS REQUEST.

UM, AND I BELIEVE THE APPLICANT IS HERE AND SO AM I IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

THANK YOU SO MUCH CALEB.

UM, SO IT'S BEEN AN OPERATION FOR 10 YEARS FROM, FROM MY RESEARCH I'VE DONE.

YES.

AND HOW DOES IT, HOW DOES THIS HAPPEN? HOW, HOW WAS IT DISCOVERED THAT IT RIGHT, THAT IT DIDN'T HAVE A CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY? SO I BELIEVE, UH, AS I MENTIONED BEFORE, THE CERTIFICATE OF OCC OCCUPANCY PERMIT THAT WAS SUBMITTED BACK IN APRIL, UH, UH, WAS REVIEWED BY STAFF AND THAT'S WHEN THEY MADE THE DETERMINATION THAT THERE WAS NO CO ASSOCIATED WITH THE SUBJECT PROPERTY.

DO THERE, DO YOU KNOW WHAT PROMPTED THEM? THERE WAS ALSO A CODE ENFORCEMENT WENT OUT THERE.

UM, THAT'S WHAT WAS ALSO DISCOVERED WAS THERE WAS A POTENTIAL VIOLATION THAT THEY WENT OUT TO REVIEW THE SITE AND THAT'S HOW IT CAME TO OUR ATTENTION.

WHEN DID THAT HAPPEN? UH, PROBABLY MARCH, APRIL TIME.

MARCH, ROUGHLY THE SAME TIME THEY SUBMITTED TO THE CO.

SO IT'S POSSIBLE TO SAY THAT THEY WOULD STILL BE IN OPERATION IF THEY DIDN'T TRY TO GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF BECAUSE OF CODE ENFORCEMENT? IT'S POSSIBLE.

ANY MORE QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? HAVE THEY BEEN A GOOD NEIGHBOR WHILE THEY'VE BEEN OPEN? I MEAN, AS FAR AS YOU KNOW, I HAVEN'T SEEN ANY COMPLAINTS OR ANYTHING.

I, UH, THE ONLY COMPLAINT WE RECEIVED WAS WHAT TRIGGERED THE CODE OF, UH, CODE OF ENFORCEMENT VIOLATION.

IT WAS A, WE GOT A CALL FROM A NEIGHBORING PROPERTY ABOUT THE PARKING ON THE SITE.

THEY WERE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE PARKING AND THAT'S HOW THIS ALL GOT TRIGGERED IS, UM, CODE ENFORCEMENT FROM A COMPLAINT GOT CALLED AND WENT OUT THERE TO CHECK OUT PARKING.

DO WE HAVE ANY OF THE HISTORY BEHIND THIS BUSINESS? UH, NO.

THAT ALL I HAVE IS WHAT WAS ABLE TO FIND, UM, THIS, BUT IT'S BEEN IN OPERATION, I THINK SINCE 2016.

OKAY, THANK YOU CALEB.

ANY MORE QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? SO IT, IT SAYS IN THE STAFF REPORT THAT, UH, THAT NO CARS THAT ARE BEING SERVICED WILL BE STORED OUTSIDE, BUT THEN IN THE OPERATIONAL PLAN IT SAYS MAXIMUM NUMBER OF CARS OUTSIDE OVER I FIVE.

SO WHICH STAFF'S POSITION? SO THE, THE CARS OUTSIDE FOR THE OPERATIONAL PLAN? I BELIEVE THAT'S JUST FOR CUSTOMER PARKING DURING THE DAY.

UM, AT NIGHT WE ACTUALLY HAVE IT AS A CONDITION THAT THEY CAN'T LEAVE ANY CARS OUTSIDE.

SO IF THEY CAN'T STORE INSIDE THE BUILDING, THEY'RE NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE THEM ON THE PROPERTY AT NIGHTTIME.

OKAY, THANK YOU.

OR, OR OUTSIDE OF BUSINESS HOURS.

THANK YOU SO MUCH KAYLA.

THE LEASE, SO I STAYED THERE.

IS THE APPLICANT HERE? YEAH.

COULD YOU COME UP AND STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD PLEASE? JOSE CASTILLO.

4 0 7 WEST FRANKLIN WASATCH, 7 5 1 6 5.

MR. CASTILLO, CAN YOU GIVE US SOME BACKGROUND ON THE BUSINESS? UH, HOW THIS STARTED 10 YEARS AGO IT WAS JUST ME, A COUPLE FRIENDS AND WE USED STORAGE.

WE GOT A LOT OF TOYS BACK THEN.

SO FOR THE FIRST FIVE YEARS IT WAS JUST OUR PERSONAL STUFF, STORAGE PLAINLY, FOUR WHEELERS, YOU NAME IT, LITTLE THINGS.

AND THEN MY TWO PARTNERS, THEY, UH, WENT DIFFERENT WAYS AND I STILL WAS ON THE MIDDLE OF

[00:25:01]

AND NEXT THING YOU KNOW, HERE WE ARE.

I HAD NO PROBLEM WITH ANYBODY.

MATTER OF FACT, THE NEIGHBORHOOD MECHANIC YOU CAN CALL IT OR TIRE EXCHANGER, CAR JUMPER, STUFF LIKE THAT.

I NEVER HAD ANY COMPLAINTS.

POLICE NEVER BEEN CALLED ON ME FOR NOISE OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.

AND LIKE I SAID, THE FIRST FIVE YEARS I WAS NOT THERE ALL THE TIME.

YOU KNOW, NOW I AM A LITTLE MORE IN THERE.

SO THIS WAS A LEASE AGREEMENT FOR YOU INITIALLY.

IT STARTED OUT AS YOU LEASING THE SPACE? YES.

AND YOU AT A POINT BOUGHT THE SPACE? NO, NO.

STILL UNDER LEASE.

STILL UNDER LEASE, YES.

AND WE DO HAVE THE SUP TIED TO THE OWNERSHIP OF THIS AS WELL, SIMILAR TO OTHER SUP.

SO, UH, MR. CASTILLO WERE EVER TO VACATE THIS USE.

UH, THE SEP WOULD BE CONSIDERED EXPIRED OR IF THERE'S ANY SORT OF CHANGE OF CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY, THEY WOULD BE REQUIRED TO COME BACK BEFORE PLANNING ZONING AND CITY COUNCIL TO RENEW THE SUP.

SO IT'S, IT'S WITH THIS SPECIFIC BUSINESS AND BUSINESS NAME.

SO WITH THE WAY THE BUSINESS IS OPERATING NOW, YOU, YOU ARE AWARE THAT IF CARS ARE LEFT OUTSIDE DURING BUSINESS HOURS, YOU'LL BE CITED, YOU MEAN BUSINESS, IT'LL BE OUTSIDE OF BUS, OUTSIDE OF BUSINESS HOURS.

OUTSIDE BUSINESS HOURS, YES.

RIGHT.

OUTSIDE BUSINESS HOURS YOU WOULD BE CITED LIKE ON THE NIGHTTIME, SIR? LIKE ON THE NIGHTTIME YOU MEAN? YES.

YES.

WHEN, WHENEVER YOU'RE CLOSED, IF YOU'RE STORING VEHICLE, HOW THE ORDINANCE IS RUN, IF YOU'RE STORING VEHICLES OUTSIDE OF BUSINESS HOURS IN THE PARKING LOT OR ANYTHING, UM, THAT'S AGAINST CODE VIOLATIONS.

SO THE ONLY CARS YOU COULD HAVE ON SITE THAT YOU'RE WORKING ON WOULD HAVE TO BE STORED INSIDE THE GARAGE.

I DON'T KNOW THAT.

PER THE OPERATIONAL PLAN AND UH, INFORMATION WE RECEIVED FROM THE APPLICANT, AVI CHAINS, UH, YEAH.

UH, SO THAT WAS, UH, ONE OF THE CONDITIONS THAT STAFF HAS THAT WAS AGREED TO BY THE APPLICANT.

UM, THAT'S ON THE APPLICATION.

UM, MS ASKING THE QUESTION? YEAH, I MEAN YOU CAN ALWAYS REQUEST IT.

UM, I THINK THAT WOULD CHANGE STAFF'S RECOMMENDATION AS WELL.

WE DO HAVE A CONCERN ABOUT CARS BEING PARKED OVERNIGHT OUTSIDE OF, UH, HOURS OF OPERATION.

UM, ESPECIALLY IN THIS AREA, IN THIS CORRIDOR.

UM, AS THIS AREA IS TRANSITIONING INTO OUR DOWNTOWN, UM, I THINK IF WE WERE TO CHANGE, TO REMOVE THAT CONDITION, I THINK THAT'S WHEN STAFF WOULD CHANGE OUR RECOMMENDATION TO PROBABLY DENIAL.

SO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT IF CARS ARE LEFT OUTSIDE BEYOND BUSINESS HOURS MM-HMM .

YOU'LL BE CITED.

UH, I UNDERSTAND.

I DON'T BE THE ONLY ONE THEN.

WHAT'S NEXT? ANY MORE QUESTIONS? NO, SHE'S, SHE'S MY HUSBAND.

SHE'S WITH YOU? YES, SHE'S WITH ME.

YOU CAN COME UP AND STATE YOUR NAME FOR RECORD PLEASE AND YOUR ADDRESS.

UM, DEBORAH MCCRAY, 1207 WEST MAIN STREET, WAXAHATCHEE, TEXAS.

UM, JOSE'S FROM THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC THOUGHT THE SIGN HE HAD ON THE WALL FOR THE, UH, WHAT IS IT CALLED? JASPER, THE ONE THAT WE ORIGINALLY WENT TO CHANGE.

'CAUSE THE, UH, MAN FROM THE CITY CAME IN INSPECTOR AND SAID THAT'S NOT THE, THE PROPER ONE.

WHAT WAS IT CALLED? OH, THERE, THERE'S SOME SIGNAGE ON THE WALL THAT DOESN'T MEET OUR CURRENT SIGN.

REG, HOW THE CODE IS WRITTEN TODAY DOESN'T MEAN THE SIGN REGULATIONS PEOPLE THAT THEY'RE REQUESTING TO KEEP ON THE BUILDING.

KEY SIGN THAT CAN BE CHANGED.

RIGHT? THEY'RE, AND IT'S A PRODUCT THAT THEY USE, WHICH WE DON'T HAVE AN ISSUE WITH.

AND APPLIED FOR IT.

HE, HE THOUGHT, YOU KNOW, JUST CAME, CAME WITH IT.

UH, A LOT OF HIS UNDERSTANDING IS, IS A LITTLE DIFFICULT, UH, IN KNOWING HOW TO DO BUSINESS HERE.

AND I ALSO WANTED TO SAY THAT HE HAS 44 SIGNATURES FROM THE PEOPLE THAT ARE AROUND HIM THAT ARE IN FAVOR THAT HE HAS WITH HIM TONIGHT OF PEOPLE THAT ARE IN FAVOR.

SO, AND I CAN ADD SOME CLARITY ABOUT THE SIGNAGE THAT THEY'RE REFRE REFERENCING.

SO IN OUR SIGN REGULATION OR IN OUR SIGN CODE REGULATIONS, IT TALKS ABOUT NO OFF-PREMISE SIGNAGE IS PERMITTED FOR ANY SORT OF OTHER BUSINESS, SUCH AS, UM, IF IF I HAD A, IF I HAD A BUILDING, I COULDN'T HAVE A SIGN FOR SOMEONE ELSE'S BUSINESS ON MY BUSINESS.

UM, THERE'S SOME OLDER SIGNAGE, UM, FOR A PRODUCT THAT THEY'RE USING ON SITE, UM, THAT WOULD TECHNICALLY NOT BE PERMITTED PER THE CODE.

UM, THEY ARE REQUESTING TO KEEP THAT SIGNAGE, WHICH STAFF DOESN'T HAVE AN ISSUE WITH.

UM, IT, I THINK IT'S REFERENCING SOME SORT OF IS JASPER ENGINES AND TRANSMISSIONS.

[00:30:01]

SO THAT'S THE SIGNAGE THAT THEY'RE, THAT THEY'RE REFERENCING.

SO YEAH, SO THAT'S US.

THAT'S ACTUALLY PART OF THIS SUP AS WELL IS TO ALLOW THAT SIGNAGE.

BUT JUST WANTED TO KNOW THAT THERE WERE, EVERYBODY AROUND HIM KNOW ABOUT IT.

DOES A LOT OF WORK FOR PEOPLE AND, AND HELPS 'EM OUT.

SO HE DOESN'T HAVE ANY, I DON'T KNOW OF THE OPPOSITION LETTER YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

WE DIDN'T GET A COPY OF IT.

SO IF THEY DO HAVE A PETITION, WE WOULD RECOMMEND THAT THEY, UM, GIVE THAT TO SA SO WE HAVE SOME TIME TO REVIEW THAT.

UM, IF THE PETITION MEETS THE REGULATIONS FOR A PETITION, UM, WE COULD GO AHEAD AND REFLECT THAT.

WE HAVEN'T SEEN THAT YET.

IT'S THE FIRST WE'RE HEARING ABOUT THAT PETITION.

UM, BUT WE'RE MORE THAN HAPPY IF THEY'RE WILLING TO LET STEPH HAVE IT.

WE CAN MAKE, UM, WE DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO A COPIER HERE.

UM, WE MIGHT, UM, WE CAN MAKE A COPY OF IT AND, UM, WE CAN START REVIEWING, BUT WE WOULDN'T HAVE TIME TO DO THAT NOW.

WE COULD POSSIBLY DO THAT PRIOR TO THE NEXT COUNCIL MEETING OR IF YOU WISH TO CONTINUE THIS.

UM, BUT RIGHT NOW WE WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO ACCEPT THOSE AS OFFICIAL OKAY.

LETTERS 'CAUSE WE HAVEN'T HAD A CHANCE TO REVIEW IT.

BUT WE'RE MORE THAN HAPPY TO DO SO.

WE NEED TO BRING THEM OVER TO YOUR OFFICE.

GIVE, UM, WE CAN GIVE 'EM TO CALEB AND WE CAN, UM, GO DOWN TO OUR, THE OFFICES IN HERE AND SEE IF WE CAN GET A COPY SO WE CAN PROVIDE THAT TO YOU.

ANY MORE QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? I JUST WOULD LIKE TO SAY I, I THINK IT IS WONDERFUL WHEN PEOPLE WANT TO INVEST IN OUR COMMUNITY AND TAKE THE RISK OF OPENING A BUSINESS.

UM, WE'RE GONNA START WITH THE GARAGE, WHICH IS OBVIOUSLY NEEDED.

HE'S GOT A COUPLE VEHICLES AND STUFF THAT WE'RE GONNA BE ABLE TO STORE IN THERE.

AND THEN HE'S TRYING TO BRING HIS MOTHER WHO'S AGING INTO THE PROPERTY.

SO WE'RE GONNA START WITH, I'LL BE HONEST, WE MAY DO THE WHOLE THING NOW.

IT'S TAKEN SO LONG TO GET MOVING FORWARD.

SO WE MAY DO GARAGE AND ACCESSORY STRUCTURE CONNECTED TO THE MAIN HOUSE THAT ONE TIME.
