CP15-001 Land Use Plan Amendment
Existing Land Use Designation – Low Density Residential
Proposed Land Use Designation – Office Commercial
The applicant is requesting approval of a Land Use Plan Amendment from Low Density Residential to Office Commercial for the development of a single-story office building. The property
is currently designated as low density residential. The Low Density Residential land use category is defined by the Southlake 2030 Comprehensive Plan as:
“The Low Density Residential
category is for detached single‐family residential development at a net density of one or fewer dwelling units per acre.” The applicant is requesting to change the land use designation
to Office Commercial which is consistent with the proposed zoning change and development. The office commercial is defined as “The Office Commercial category is a commercial category
designed and intended for the exclusive use of office and limited office-related activities. It is established for and will be allocated to those districts best suited for supporting
commercial activity of an office character. It has been established to encourage and permit general professional and business offices of high quality and appearance, in attractive landscaped
surroundings with the types of uses and design exterior appearance so controlled as to be generally compatible with existing and future adjacent and surrounding residential development.
Properties with this designation may serve as a transition between established residential neighborhoods, major roadways, and retail development.”

tree will need to be removed with construction of the building. The six (6) existing trees total 6,794 square feet of canopy coverage or 15.7%. The four (4) trees that need to be removed
total 4,631 square feet of canopy coverage or 10.7%. The two (2) trees that remain total 2,163 square feet of canopy coverage or 5%. The Tree Preservation Ordinance states that for 0%
to 20% of existing tree cover on the site, 70% is required to be preserved under a straight zoning district. The “S-P-1” zoning district does not require the applicant to preserve any
minimum amount of trees but rather makes their tree preservation plan subject to City Council’s approval.
