Mr. Hill presented Item 5 to the Commission.
Commissioner Blanscet inquired what new information was being presented. Mr. Hill responded
that representatives for Hilton company were present to provide more details about the extended
stay and room costs. Wes Hoblit with Master Plan Consultants and Whitney Knight with Hilton
introduced themselves as representatives for the project and presented a PowerPoint to the
Commissioners.
Commissioner Blanscet inquired where the required restaurant was located on the plans. Anil
Ram of ADR Designs LLC explained that the full -service restaurant is located between the Hilton
Garden Inn and Homewood Suites and includes a full -service kitchen. A separate breakfast area
is provided on the Homewood Suites side. Mr. Hoblit also confirmed that all amenities are shared
between the hotels and that the restaurant would be open to both hotel guests and the public.
Commissioner Blanscet inquired how the dual -branded hotel would operate together on a day-to-
day basis. Ms. Knight explained that both hotels would function as a unified operation under one
general manager while sharing staff and amenities including housekeeping, front desk, sales,
catering, food service, and the pool. Operational differences primarily involve backend systems
and breakfast service as Homewood Suites offers complimentary breakfast while Hilton Garden
Inn charges separately. Ms. Knight also stated that guests would experience the property as a
single hotel and that the shared setup benefits group events such as weddings.
Commissioner Blanscet inquired about Hilton's renovation requirements. Ms. Knight explained
that hotels typically undergo a soft renovation roughly every seven years which consists of
updates to carpet and furnishings, followed by a full interior renovation roughly every fourteen
years. The applicant then added that most hotels renew their franchise agreements after
completing required upgrades, including potential exterior updates through a Product
Improvement Plan.

Commissioner Furay inquired about how the two hotel brands are separated. Ms. Knight
explained that they share a common lobby and front desk but have separate elevator banks and
room areas that are typically divided by floors or sections. Mr. Ram clarified that there are no walls
on each floor separating the hotels; the different room types share the same corridor and there is
signage for each brand.
Commissioner Furay inquired whether the project could instead become a single Hilton Garden
Inn rather than a dual brand. Ms. -Knight explained that once license agreements are signed,
changing the hotel brands would create major legal issues. It was also noted that the developers
did not initially realize a Specific Use Permit was required.
Commissioner Furay made a motion to close the public hearing and approve Item 5. The motion
was seconded by Commissioner Daniel. The motion was passed by a vote of 4-1 with
Commissioner Hamilton in opposition. Commissioner Hamilton expressed that the reasons for
his denial have not changed from when the item was previously heard by the Commission. There
are already approved extended stay hotels in Prosper and any additional extended stays will
impact the number of available full service rooms.
6. Review actions taken by the Town Council and possibly direct Town Staff to
schedule topic(s) for discussion at a future meeting.
Mr. Hill Informed the Commissioners of past Town Council actions and upcoming cases for
Planning and Zoning Commission consideration.
7. Adjourn.
Commissioner Hamilton made a motion to adjourn the meeting. The motion was seconded by
Commissioner Furay. The motion was carried unanimously by a vote of 5-0.
The meeting was adjourned at 7:46 P.M.
