Good evening, Commissioners for the record.

Kevin Charles, Principal Planner, Planning and Development Services.

This evening we'll be looking at ZO3-56, P03-56R1, also known as the Walmart Supercenter site.

The site is approximately 16 acres, of which approximately 3.75 of it are developed with the Walmart Super Center.

The address is 915 East Randall Mill Road.

And the request, of course, is for a revised development plan.

This is an aerial photograph of the site with the site highlighted in yellow.

The applicant is requesting a revision to the approved development plan for zoning for this zoning case for the installation of a solar solar panel array on the roof of the existing structure.

I apologize.

Of those community commercial, residential multifamily, and residential single family uh detached.

Again, the development plan proposed to install downward oriented accent lighting and a solar energy array array in the shape of Walmart Spark logo on the roof of the existing Walmart building.

The proposed way array will be installed to supplement the site with Clean Energy.

As Walmart is currently working to reach uh zero emissions by 2040.

The solar arrangement will not be visible from uh the ground level and will have no effect on the streets streetscape view of the site.

Uh no other requests or affiliated with this proposal, and then speaking with the applicant prior to this meeting.

Uh, this is the first uh project of this sort for Walmart in the DFW area.

The applicant is Boyd and Lowry, LLP, Next Era Energy Resources LLC, owner Walmart Real Estate Business Trust.

Staff did not receive any letters of opposition or uh any letters of support in reference to this particular project.

I'm available for any questions or comments.

Do any of the commissioners have any questions of staff at this time?

Saying none, thank you, Kevin.

Thank you.

Going to open up the public session at this time.

Um with the applicant, I have several cards here uh and two speakers.
