description being Block 1, Lots 1 of the Enox Office Addition in the City of Kennedale,
Tarrant County, Texas. The applicant, also, requests a variance from the conformance of

the minimum 50' frontage on and access to an existin
property is located at 1129 Little School Rd as requested bylWilliam and Mary Enox25~ The
A short discussion was held among the members of the Commission and the staff regarding the
ingress and egress easements, drainage easements, and utility easements. Mr. Harvey
questioned why the applicants did not attempt to purchase the 25 feet of easement that is
currently being utilized on the adjacent Shytles property so that the Enox's would have the 50
feet street frontage that is required for a property instead of requesting a variance with the re-
plat. Mr. Cowey in his response speculated that the applicant might not be interested in
purchasing property that they currently already have use of.
Mr. Harvey made a motion to deny the re-plat, seconded by Mr. Hunn.
Motion passed with a vote of five (5) to one (1) with Mr. Robeson abstaining.

revised plat is the one that they are considering for approval.

concerning the retention /detention pond that will be platted with this plat. Mr. Saunders
assured the Commission that if the pond is designed correctly then the drainage issue will be
controlled. Mr. Cowen wanted his opinion on record stating that he will not be a party to any
more flooding within the City. The members of the Commission discussed amongst themselves
