Item 6. Hold Public Hearing and Consider and Take Appropriate Action on Request to Replat
93 Hunsley Hills Blvd from Required Front Yard Setback of 25’ to 17’.
Code Enforcement Director Danny Cornelius presented a requested replat for construction at 93
Hunsley Hills Blvd from the property owner. Mr. Cornelius said the front setback is the distance
from the front of the property line to the front of the building and the zoning ordinance requires that
distance to be 25’. Mr. Cornelius said a lessor distance is allowable with approval of the City
Commission. Mr. Cornelius stated the request has been made because the builder measured the
setback from the back of the curb instead of the front property line resulting in the building being
built 8’ closer to the front property line than it should have been. Mr. Cornelius stated the mistake
wasn’t caught with the foundation inspection and was realized after the garage walls were erected.
After discussion with City Manager Randy Criswell it was decided the best course of action was to
present a request to replat to the Planning and Zoning Commission followed by presenting their
decision to the City Commission for the final decision. Mr. Cornelius said 25 letters were sent out
City Commission Meeting

Page 2 of 3
to property owners within 200’ and received 8 responses with 3 in support and 5 opposing the
request. Mr. Cornelius stated the neighbor next door at 91 Hunsley Hills Blvd, Mr. Aaron DeLong
was opposed, but after attending the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting and hearing the
details, he felt the situation would have no adversity to property values. Commissioner Lyons
stated most communities have a 20’ setback so he didn’t see any issue with 17’. Mr. Cornelius
stated the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 4-2 to recommend approval of the plat.
Mayor Hinders opened the public hearing at 1:14 pm. There being no comment, Mayor Hinders
closed the public hearing at 1:14 pm.

the shooting that took place July 7th, 2016 in Dallas, Texas, resulting in the injury and death of
police officers, Senate Bill 12 was passed authorizing the Criminal Justice Division of the

Item 8. Discuss Possible Development of Park Land Dedication Ordinance.
City Manager Randy Criswell and Assistant City Manager for Special Projects Jon Behrens
presented information from research regarding Park Land Dedication Ordinances. Mr. Behrens
stated the Canyon Parks, Open Space and Recreation Advisory Committee had been discussing
this type of ordinance, and with the development of the Canyon East Subdivision and Park, and
the costs associated, felt this was a worthwhile discussion. Mr. Behrens stated a Parkland
Dedication is a requirement that subdivision developers or builders dedicate land for a park and/or
pay a fee to be used by the city to acquire and develop park facilities ensuring park facilities are
available when homeowners buy their new home and not placing unmanageable burdens on the
city or parks departments. Mr. Behrens gave a few examples of how the need for parks and costs
to develop and maintain are figured. Commissioner Lyons stated he felt the costs could be
controlled with communication from city staff to developers, that adoption of this type policy would
drive away prospective builders. Mayor Hinders stated he felt this policy should be considered and
studied with the development of the City of Canyon Comprehensive Plan. Commissioner
Richardson asked Mr. Behrens if he felt the Canyon Parks, Open Space and Recreation Advisory
Committee was in support of implementing this type policy to which Mr. Behrens said nothing has
been formally voted on by the board, but they seemed supportive to the implementation of the
policy. Commissioner Remlinger asked if it wasn’t an attraction to prospective home buyers to
have a park in a subdivision, and Commissioner Lyons stated it is becoming a trend for large
developments to provide a quality of life with parks or walking paths.
After discussion, it was decided consideration would be given to the development of a Park
Land Dedication Ordinance if recommended as a result of the ongoing Comprehensive Plan.
Commissioner Lyons stated he felt consideration of this policy should be dropped.
Item 9. Executive Session Pursuant to §551.087 for Economic Development Negotiations.
Mayor Hinders indicated the Commission would adjourn into Executive Session at 6:48 pm.
Item 10. Consider and Take Appropriate Action on Items Discussed in Executive Session,
Upon returning from Executive Session at 7:12 pm, no action was taken.
Item 11. Consider Meeting Dates for July, August, and September 2017.
After discussion, Commissioners agreed to meet August 7, August 21, September 5, and
September 11, 2017. A motion was then made to amend the Annexation Calendar, Resolution No.
15-2017, to match the agreed meeting dates.

REGARDING ITEM 6 AGENDA
To: Randy Criswell, City Manager
From: Danny Cornelius, Director of Code Enforcement
Date: July 18, 2017
Re: Conduct Public Hearing and Consider and Take Appropriate Action on Plat
for Hunsley Hills Unit No. 32.
The owner of this property has requested a plat to change the front building setback from 25’
to 17’. The front setback is the distance from the front property line to the front of the building.
The zoning ordinance requires a 25’ front building setback line in the SF-S (Single-Family
Suburban Residential District) where this building is located. The ordinance does allow a
different setback if established by plat.
This plat is being requested because the builder measured the setback from the back of the
curb instead of the front property line by mistake. The property line is 8’ from the back of the
curb, so the building was built 8’ closer to the front property line than it should have been. We
failed to catch the mistake when conducting the footing inspection. The mistake wasn’t realized
until the garage walls were erected.
Randy and I discussed it and decided that the most appropriate way to address the issue would
be to replat the property. Letters were sent to 25 property owners within 200’. We received 8
responses with 3 supporting and 5 opposing the request.
The Planning and Zoning Commission voted 4 – 2 to recommend approval of the plat.

Item 3: Conduct a Public Hearing and Consider and Take Appropriate Action on a Plat for
Hunsley Hills Unit No. 32.
The owner of the property at 93 Hunsley Hills Boulevard had submitted a plat to change the
front building setback from 25’ to 17’. The zoning ordinance requires a 25’ front yard setback in
the SF-S (Single-Family Suburban Residential District) where the property is located. The
ordinance does allow a different setback if established by plat. The plat was being requested
because the builder measured the setback from the back of the curb instead of the front
property line by mistake. The property line is 8’ from the back of the curb, so the building was
built 8’ closer to the front property line than it should have been. The Code Enforcement
Department failed to catch the mistake when conducting the footing inspection. The mistake
was not realized until the garage walls were erected.
Chairman Craddock opened the public hearing. Aaron Delong of 91 Hunsley Hills Boulevard
addressed the commission. Mr. Delong asked what options were available if the plat was not
approved. The builder, Rodney Miller, stated that the garage would be taken down and a
smaller garage built. Mr. Delong stated that he was not necessarily opposed to the plat and he
would favor the option that would not negatively affect the property’s value. Chairman Craddock
closed the public hearing.
After discussion, Commissioner Munger moved, duly seconded by Commissioner Luetkahans,
to recommend approval of the plat. The motion passed 4 – 2 with Commissioners Wartes and
Krutsch voting to deny the plat.
Item 4: Discuss Amendments to Ordinance No. 938, Sign Regulation, of the Zoning Code.
The Commission discussed amending the current sign ordinance. The sign ordinance currently
prohibits “signs with revolving beacons, fluttering, undulating, swinging, or otherwise moving
parts”. Amendments were presented to clarify that flags with business logos flown at least 20
feet above grade on poles would be not be prohibited. The amendments would also allow
fluttering signs advertising special events for a maximum period of 14 days per calendar year.

Re: Consider and Take Appropriate Action on Resolution NO. 16-2017 for the
submission and acceptance of the Criminal Justice Division Rifle-Resistant Body
Armor Grant Program through the Office of the Governor.
The Canyon Police Department applied for a Criminal Justice Division grant in the amount of
$18,000. The Canyon PD grant request was for the sole purpose of enhancing the safety of
our police officers. There is no match requirement under this program.
In response to the July 7th, 2016 shooting of police officers in Dallas, TX, Senate Bill 12 was
passed during the 85th Legislature Regular Session. On May 27th, 2017, Governor Abbott
signed Senate Bill 12 into law which authorized the Criminal Justice Division (CJD) of the
Governor’s Office to create a grant program to assist agencies in the purchase of the rifle-
resistant body armor. The Governor’s Office is now accepting applications under this
program to increase safety of Texas Law enforcement officers and prevent further loss of life.
It is my recommendation that Resolution No. 16-2017 be adopted for the submission
and acceptance of the CJD Criminal Justice Division grant so that funding can be
distributed for the purchase of 23 rifle-resistant body armor vests.
Respectfully,
Dale Davis
Chief of Police
City of Canyon

Re: Budget Work Session.
I know each of you has taken the time to look at the budget, and probably realized
there was a lot of information in there. As we discussed earlier in the process, I have
prepared a PowerPoint presentation going over the highlights of the budget. If you
have any questions prior to Monday’s meeting, please don’t hesitate to contact me. If
you’ve got the question, someone else probably will as well.
I’ll go through my presentation this afternoon, and the staff will be here as well, to help
answer any questions you may have.
