Amendment Summary
This site is currently designated as Low Density Residential. This application summarizes a request to
change the designation to Office Commercial so that a new professional office building can be
developed on the site.
Conditions that Warrant Change
The site is on a hard corner of busy Southlake Boulevard and Brock Lane. At one time, about 40 years
ago, a single residence occupied the site. As Southlake has grown significantly in that time the land east,
north and west of the site has developed to more intense commercial or community uses . A residence
will never be built on the site. The best transition and buffer for the remaining homes to the south is to
have a low volume office use.
Proposed Change is More Compatible
The office use will be more compatible with the adjacent current land use designations. A similar office
complex is across Southlake Boulevard to the north. The property to the east is currently Office
Commercial. The property to the west is now Public/Semi-Public as a church .
Proposed Change Fulfills City of Southlake Goals
The City of Southlake 2030 Goals are fulfilled in the following ways.
1.Ensure high –quality design and a heightened sensitivity towards the integration of new
development with the existing developments and urban pattern.
2.Strengthen street and landscape design along the major Southlake Boulevard corridor.
3.Encourage opportunities for redevelopment.
4.Promote unique community character with high quality structures and landscape.
5.Encourages appropriately scaled design adjacent to neighborhoods.
