No existing trees are proposed to be removed for the construction of the south parking lot.   Two (2) of the existing trees proposed to be removed are within the proposed building pad of the Worship Center and the other four (4) are located outside of the proposed building pad. The applicant is proposing to mitigate the removal of the four (4) trees outside of the proposed building by planting thirty-nine inches (39”) of additional landscape trees within the interior landscape area around the Worship Center. A total of six (6) existing trees are proposed to be removed for the proposed Worship Center. No existing trees are proposed to be removed for the construction of the south parking lot.   This exhibit also shows the proposed bufferyard along the parking area   Except for existing native trees and vegetation along the west and south bufferyard areas of the two properties, the other existing trees are required interior and bufferyard landscape trees that were planted during the previous construction phases of the development. A majority of these landscape trees are still small and their canopy cover across the site cannot be easily determined from an aerial photograph or the ground. The canopy cover of the six (6) trees proposed to be removed for the construction of the Worship Center measured to be approximately 2,016 square feet. With the removal of the six (6) trees the percentage of existing tree cover preserved would be well over the minimum percentage of existing tree cover required to be preserved. 19 Driveway Spacing Variance Exhibit 20 Southlake Office Plaza The is the site plan for Southlake Office Plaza development that was approved October 7, 2014.

There was a sign installed indicating an equestrian trailhead #2; however, no city or private easement across the church property. In 2008, Countryside Bible Church indicated that it prohibited horses crossing their property citing liability and safety issues. August 2013, City abandoned the Equestrian Easement south of the Fox Glen Neighborhood. 34 Photos 35 Photos 36 Photos 37 Photos 38 Future North White Chapel 39
