Request draft ordinance to check re-notification triggers at North Boulevard
Context: The case was held under advisement April 8 and deferred again April 22 across three consecutive Council appearances since the 12-2 City Plan Commission recommendation — a pattern that strongly indicates active condition modification rather than a scheduling hold.
Recommended: Obtain the current draft ordinance from the Dallas City Attorney's office or City Secretary and compare its conditions against the February 5 City Plan Commission approval language — if the Council has materially modified setbacks, unit count, or use restrictions across three hearings, Texas Local Government Code §211.009 notice requirements may have been triggered and a final vote without re-notification would be a procedural defect.
Pull April 8 Council backup to find contested conditions at North Boulevard
Context: The Council deferred twice after the February 5 City Plan Commission 12-2 approval — held under advisement April 8, deferred again April 22 — meaning contested conditions are still being actively negotiated and your project assumptions may no longer match the current draft ordinance.
Recommended: Download the April 8 City Council meeting backup from the Dallas City Secretary's portal and identify what language in the draft ordinance triggered the 'Held Under Advisement' designation — that document will show whether the Council is contesting setbacks, unit count, or design standards your pro forma assumed were finalized at the February City Plan Commission vote.
Request attendance records to investigate the commission vote shift on North Boulevard townhouses
Context: Vote records show a 13-0 City Plan Commission approval in September 2025 followed by a 12-2 approval in February 2026 with Kocks and Coffman specifically named as dissenters, and the Council has since deferred the case three times — the unexplained drop in commission support combined with the Council non-action pattern across five total appearances is the anomaly the public record raises but does not resolve.
Recommended: File a Texas Public Information Act request for the September 4, 2025 City Plan Commission attendance sheet and any revised site plans or applicant submittals filed between September 2025 and February 2026 — determining whether Kocks and Coffman voted yes in September and then flipped, or were simply absent from the unanimous vote, is the key to two materially different stories about why the Council has refused to finalize this case across three appearances despite a positive commission recommendation.
Identify which Council district is blocking the North Boulevard townhouse vote
Context: This case has been deferred or held at Council on March 25, April 8, and April 22 following the February 5 City Plan Commission's 12-2 recommendation, a five-appearance trajectory that places the district Council member's assent — not the full Council — as the critical blocking variable.
Recommended: Determine which Dallas City Council district covers North Boulevard Terrace and Plymouth Road and request a meeting with that Council member's office before the next scheduled hearing — three consecutive deferrals on a case the City Plan Commission recommended 12-2 is a strong signal that the district member has not signaled support, and under Dallas Council protocol that office is the only path to scheduling a final vote.
