Item 7A - Crooked-Kimball Small Area Plan Exhibit 1 w M I ks/ J V) 030 Crooked/Kimball Small Area Plan Adopted by City Council September 20, 2011 Ordinance No. 1010 CITY OF SOUTHLAKE v Abstract During the Southlake 2030 comprehensive planning process in 2010, the Land Use Committee recommended the removal of the "Transition" land use designation from the Optional Land Use Map. This recommendation created a congruency issue in one area of the City where current development regulations—specifically those under Southlake's "Airport Compatible Land Use Zoning Ordinance No. 479"—would not permit the "Low Density Residential" development that the Comprehensive Land Use Plan recommends. The Crooked/Kimball Small Area Plan was created to address this congruency issue and articulate the City's vision for an 82-acre area between S. Kimball Avenue and S. Nolen Drive to help guide future development decisions for the area. The resulting policy the Plan recommends is Office Commercial development along much of the Kimball Avenue and Nolen Drive frontage as well as under nearly all of the 75' LDN Corridor for DFW Airport. Mixed Use is recommended for the northwest corner of the property, close to the intersection of Kimball Avenue and Southlake Boulevard and also along the majority of the properties along Kimball Avenue. Retail uses are recommended at the corner of Nolen Drive and Southlake Boulevard, and Low Density Residential is recommended for the remaining area along Crooked Lane and the southern portion of Kimball Avenue. Small Area Planning and Land Use Planning: An Introduction The City of Southlake's Land Use Plan serves as the community's vision for future development by allocating the appropriate location, concentration and intensity of future development by land use categories. The plan serves as a guide to all decision making as it pertains to the City's future development. The City of Southlake approaches land use planning through sector planning, a method which divides the City into sectors to identify development issues and to develop recommendations for each individual area. This approach recognizes that planning issues are numerous and complex, and may vary from area to area or even site to site. In short, the purpose of a sector plan is to: • Establish a detailed background for the planning area, • Identify current development constraints and issues, • Identify features, resources and areas to be protected or improved, • Explore development opportunities and • List recommendations for the future development and conservation of the area. Crooked/Kimball Small Area Plan September 20, 2011 Page i "Small Area Plans" takes sector planning to a more thorough and detailed level. They focus on specific strategically significant geographic areas of the city that will have a great impact on the future of the community. Small area plans might be considered an appendix to a Sector Plan in that it simply recommends more specific land uses and layouts than a typical Sector Plan would recommend. Although recommendations may vary from area to area, all sector and small area plans are intended to work together to support a desired direction for growth as outlined in the adopted Vision, Goals and Objectives of the Southlake 2030 Plan (Ordinance No. 960). As such, the land use recommendations from the sector and small area plans are consolidated to create one cohesive document for the City as a whole and the result is the City's Land Use Plan. Recommendations developed in the sector and small area plans will also be incorporated into other plan elements, such as the Master Thoroughfare Plan and Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan, as appropriate. In addition, the sector and small area plans will be utilized in setting priorities in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) planning process, updating current development ordinances and creating new planning related ordinances or programs as needed. Relationship to Southlake's Strategic Management System Strategic planning is an ongoing process where resources, critical concerns, community priorities and citizen needs are combined to produce both a plan for the future and a measure for results. More specifically, Southlake's Strategic Management System links the city's day-to-day activities to a comprehensive long term strategy for public policy and management decisions. The Strategic Management System identifies Strategic Focus Areas and Objectives to guide effective and efficient resource allocation and provides benchmarks to assess performance. The Strategic Focus Areas and Objectives are driven by the City's Citizen Survey and are outlined in the City's Strategy Map (please see Appendix B). The Strategic Management System guided the Ilk Strategic Management System development of the Southlake 2030 Plan Vision, Goals L1. %Asion and Objectives (VGO), which define a desired direction for growth for the City. As such, all ' recommendations in the Southlake 2030 Plan are tied to at least one Strategic Focus Area from the Strategic Management System and at least one Objective from the Adopted Vision, Goals and Objectives. Crooked/Kimball Small Area Plan September 20, 2011 Page ii Relationship to Vision North Texas Vision North Texas is a public, private, non-profit and academic partnership headed by the North Central Texas Council of Governments, the Urban Land Institute, and the University of Texas at Arlington. The partnership was created to serve as a forum for discussion, research, and action on issues related to the growth and development of North Central Texas. In addition, the partnership strives to increase public awareness about important regional land use issues and to build support for initiatives that create a successful and sustainable future for North Texas. Over the last few years, Vision North Texas has invited stakeholders from across the region to participate in a series of workshops to develop a vision for the region's Vision North Texas future as well as an action plan to achieve that vision. The 0l f tY{.,Gn', pf:rn u.I� result of these workshops is North Texas 2050, which describes the preferred future envisioned by Vision North Texas participants. The document also provides guiding principles to help decision-makers achieve the regional vision. The City of Southlake recognizes the importance of the regional vision and has worked to align the Southlake 2030 Plan with North Texas 2050. All Southlake 2030 recommendations are linked to at least one of the guiding principles (please see Appendix C). Additional information on North Texas 2050 and Vision North Texas is available at www.visionnorthtexas.org.

Eleven (11) additional acres could be considered underdeveloped or ripe for redevelopment, thus totaling 47 continuous acres of new development potential, or about 57% of the site. Included in that 47-acre area is the planned street connector of South Village Center Drive, which would ultimately connect S. Nolen Drive to Kimball Avenue and on to Southlake Boulevard just east of Westwood Drive (Woodland Heights residential subdivision). South Village Center Drive is currently planned to be constructed as a two-lane undivided collector within 60' of right-of-way. Homes in the area were mostly built in the 1980s,with four also being built in the 1990s and 2000s. Crooked Lane is a tree-lined two-lane rural road which the Southlake Historical Society has identified as an old carriage route between Birdville and McKinney. Eleven (11) larger residential lots of one acre or more front onto Crooked Lane and a cul-de-sac stem,Whispering Woods Circle. yF_ s .Ki z The tree-lined rural street of Crooked Lane sees about 900 vehicle trips per day, according to the City of Southlake 2009 Traffic Count Report.

Environmental Preservation There is a considerable amount of existing tree cover and open space in the area. Crooked Lane is lined with a number of large mature trees, as is the east side of Kimball Avenue. Mobility and Connectivity Area residents have voiced concern about widening and increased usage of Crooked Lane, a two-lane rural road. South Village Center Drive is also a planned street connector near the north side of this plan area, connecting Nolen Drive to Kimball Avenue and beyond. Land Use The optional land use category of "T-1" is applied to the area, however initial recommendations of the Southlake 2030 Land Use Committee is to remove the 'Transition" land use category from the Future Land Use Map. Once removed, the remaining underlying land use designation of "Low Density Residential" is not consistent with the regulatory ordinance governing uses within the airport noise corridor. Crooked/Kimball Small Area Plan September 20, 2011 Page 6 3 .0 Existing Plans In the context of comprehensive planning, "land use" typically refers to future land use designations as shown on the Future Land Use Map. The Future Land Use Map illustrates the desired location and distribution of land uses throughout the City, as opposed to the Zoning Map which shows how land is currently zoned, used and regulated. As such, the Future Land Use Map is an important visual tool used by city decision-makers, city staff, developers, and citizens to understand the community's desired development pattern. The map below represents the Future Land Use designations recommended in the Southlake 2025 Land Use Plan. ` Q�YHO® Future Land Use a WE Crooked/Kimball rHLgK�BL�o ��� 2030 19 Special Plan Area ' 65 LDN Legend C Crooked/Kimball Plan Area `. 100-Year Flood Plain Corps of Engineers Property Public Park/Open Space Publi65emi-Public Low Density Residential 'LC` • Medium Density Residential me T,, Fy Office Commeraal o� Retail Commercial Y+ Mixed Use _Town Center 14 75 LDN Regional Recall Industrial ' DFW Airport Noise Corridor ,'R a i ti, F z KIM6AlL HILL CT _ 4, p a _ a � r J .L '.

Underlying & Optional Land Use Recommendations The following section describes the four underlying and optional land use categories that apply to this property. 1. Office Commerical The southeast portion of the property which fronts Nolen Drive and Crooked Lane is designated for"Office Commercial." Definition: 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. Other suitable activities are those permitted in the Public Parks/Open Space and Public/Semi-Public categories. Land Use Mix*:The percentages below for the land use mix in the Office Commercial category are intended only to be guidelines, and greater flexibility may be appropriate under site specific conditions.

Low Density Residential The majority of the subject property is designated for"Medium Density Residential" and is located generally south of Crooked Lane and along S. Kimball Avenue. Crooked/Kimball Small Area Plan September 20, 2011 Page 10 Definition: The Low Density Residential category is for detached single-family residential development at a net density of one or fewer dwelling units per acre. Net density is the number of dwelling units per net acre, which excludes acreage in all public rights-of-way. Other suitable activities are those permitted in the Public Parks / Open Space and Public / Semi-Public categories described previously. The Low Density Residential category encourages the openness and rural character of the City of Southlake. Land Use Mix*: The percentages below for the land use mix in the Low Density Residential category are intended only to be guidelines, and greater flexibility may be appropriate under site specific conditions.

Small subdivisions(le.s.s than 4 lots} mqv be de.sigaled 7ti4thorrt open space. 3. Retail Commercial The northernmost portions of the area which either front or are closest to Southlake Blvd carry a designation of Retail Commercial. Definition:The Retail Commercial category is a lower-to medium-intensity commercial category providing for neighborhood-type retail shopping facilities and general commercial support activities. It is intended to provide limited local retail and/or office uses which serve neighborhoods in close proximity. It is intended that all uses in this category will be compatible with adjacent single family uses, thereby maintaining the character and integrity of existing neighborhoods. This category is intended to encourage comprehensively planned developments. In areas where the Retail Commercial designation is adjacent to residentially zoned properties or areas with a residential designation on the Land Use Plan, lower intensity activities such as office or office-related uses should be planned adjacent to the residential uses. Other suitable activities are those permitted in the Public Parks/Open Space, Public/Semi-Public, and Office Commercial categories previously discussed. Land Use Mix*: The percentages below for the land use mix in the Retail Commercial category are intended only to be guidelines, and greater flexibility may be appropriate under site specific conditions.

Transition 1 (T-1) Overlaying all but the "Retail Commercial" designation in this special plan area is an optional category that emphasizes flexibility, creativity, and the mixing of uses in the development of transition sites. Higher priority is placed on non-residential uses in this category. See "Attachment E"for a full description of this designation. Purpose:The purpose of the Transition 1 (T-1) land use category is to provide an alternative tool to allow for the flexibility and creativity in the development of "transition" sites. The T-1 district is intended to consist of primarily non-residential uses; however, limited single-family residential development may be appropriate in some cases. The standards and criteria established under this land use category constitute general guidelines for the staff, Planning & Zoning Commission, and City Council to evaluate comprehensive development proposals for specific transition properties as identified in the City's Land Use Plan.The T-1 transition land use may be utilized by the developer lieu of the underlying land use category in cases where master planned developments are proposed. Definition: This land use category is applied to transition properties that are adjacent to both commercial land uses or arterial roadways and lower intensity residential uses and those properties that are difficult to develop under current policies. These properties share unique characteristics in that they have commercial potential due to adjacency to a major arterial or existing commercial uses, but need to address compatibility issues with adjacent established neighborhoods.These properties also share site specific environmental characteristics that need development flexibility in order to balance environmental protection and market feasibility. This land use category is intended to allow for creative development and flexible transition opportunities with a mix of development types (retail, office, and single-family residential) only on properties that clearly demonstrate the above listed limitations. Each individual area designated for Transition 1 (T-1) land use category will generally range from 15 to 40 acres. Land Use Mix*: The percentages below for the land use mix in the T-1 Transition category are intended only to be guidelines, and greater flexibility may be appropriate under site specific conditions.

Scale and Context Criteria: Scale and context criteria describe intensity, location, and compatibility criteria for the mix of land uses proposed. Retail uses: o Retail uses are to be located at a major street intersection or immediately adjacent to existing retail development along a major arterial. o Retail uses are to be limited to convenience and neighborhood retail and service uses such as a drug store, grocery store, laundry, cleaners, etc. developed in conjunction with the adjoining retail commercial uses. o Provide safe and easy pedestrian access to the retail from the surrounding neighborhoods and other adjacent developments. o The total amount of retail in a specific T-1 category is recommended to be in the 25,000 s.f.- 50,000 s.f. range. Office uses: o Office uses are to be located along a major arterial or immediately adjacent to existing or proposed retail uses. o Office uses are encouraged to be limited to professional offices that are 1 — 2 stories with footprints between 5,000 — 8,000 square feet. This criterion is established to limit surface parking and maximize the shared usage of parking between retail and office uses. o This land use category is not intended for larger planned office or business parks and campuses. o Single-family Residential uses: o Residential uses are to be located between the proposed office or retail uses and existing residential neighborhoods. These uses are intended to provide a lower intensity transition between existing neighborhoods and commercial uses. o Residential uses should be well integrated with proposed open space and other civic uses to create a sense of place. o They should also be integrated with proposed commercial uses in a manner that provides internal automobile and pedestrian access to convenience commercial uses. Crooked/Kimball Small Area Plan September 20, 2011 Page 13 o Single-family residential uses are recommended to be to the density and scale that is appropriate based on the context and character of the proposed overall development. Open space: o Consider environmental elements as "features" rather than constraints. o Emphasis shall be placed on preservation of existing wooded areas and stream corridors. o Avoid channeling or piping of streams. o Streams or creeks should become a focal point rather than the rear of the development. o Provide natural walking paths along stream and creek corridors. o Well designed and integrated open spaces are critical to the creation of successful mixed-use neighborhoods. o Open spaces should be designed to add value to proposed development and not as an "after- thought". To that end, open spaces should maximize frontage along residential and office uses. Open spaces shall occupy a prominent place in the development of a neighborhood and form the center pieces of a community. o Open spaces are intended to be the "front-yards" and invite passive recreational activities. Open spaces may be in the form of pocket parks, children's play areas, squares, linear greens, and conservation areas. Active sports fields and activities are not recommended in the T-1 land use category. o Use the topography as an advantage, do not flatten the site. o Preserve views. Civic uses: o Civic uses such as a day-care, post office, police substation, local government offices, churches, etc. are encouraged in the T-1 category. Ideally, civic uses should be located centrally in the development and provide convenient access to all other uses and activities in the development. o Civic uses are to be designed to the scale and context of the neighborhood. Uses are encouraged to be appropriately scaled to the proposed development and generally limited to a maximum of 10,000 square feet of built area. Some representative images of land uses in the T-1 Transition land use category are included below: Crooked/Kimball Small Area Plan September 20, 2011 Page 14 Residential Uses Residential Uses Residential Uses 1 W.7 Neighborhood Scale Retail Uses Natirr•al Open Space Areas Integrated Open Space 17x ]rat f Professional Office Use Professional Office Use Civic Use Overall Character and Design: Given the close proximity of the different land uses permitted in this land use category, attention to design detail is critical to a successful development in the T-1 land use category. o The proposed development is encouraged to establish an overall concept and theme for the project as a whole. o Emphasis should be placed on an interconnected street pattern that encourages internal circulation, both automobile and pedestrian, within the district. o Development should limit the visual impact of surface parking lots by dividing parking lots into smaller pods and locating parking to the side and rear of buildings. o The scale of development should encourage 1-2 story buildings which are oriented toward the street, limiting the impact of surface parking lots. o Street design shall be compatible with the character of the development. Streets are encouraged to create a safe and inviting walking environment through an interconnected network of roads with sidewalks, street trees, street furniture, and amenities.

Mobility & Master Thoroughfare Plan "Mobility" refers to the City's transportation network and includes automotive, pedestrian, bicycle and other alternative modes of transportation. Over the past several decades, the physical, social and economic success Southlake has experienced can be attributed in part to the City's transportation network. The highways, streets, paths, railway and proximity to the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport that provide mobility within the City and access to points beyond have caused Southlake to transition from a relatively isolated community at its incorporation to a premier City in the DFW Metroplex and beyond today. However, the same transportation network has also created adverse side effects: traffic congestion due to regional travel patterns, increased pollutant emissions and high stress levels due to commuting.

Currently the City has an approved Sidewalk Pathways Plan which indicates the location of future sidewalk facilities in the City and priorities these facilities for construction. Also, the City of Southlake ensures construction of sidewalks by the following actions: 1) allocates approximately$400,000 annually for the construction of trails and sidewalks in the CIP (Capital Improvements Program); 2) seeks grants for funding; 3) requires new development to construct sidewalks along public streets adjacent to the site; 4) implemented the sidewalk matching program (a 50% cost sharing program for the design and construction of sidewalks within neighborhoods); and 5) implemented the Sidewalk Partnership program (promotes the dedication of easements by citizens and business for the construction of sidewalks). The only existing sidewalk in this vicinity is a 6 foot sidewalk on the west side of S. Kimball Avenue from Southlake Blvd to Cambridge Place. A short sidewalk segment also exists on Southlake Blvd in front of a portion of the Georgetown Park office development. The Southlake 2025 Pathways Plan recommends a 6 foot paved sidewalk is along Crooked Lane from Kimball Avenue to Nolen, and then north to SH 114. The Pathways Plan does not reflect the update to Crooked/Kimball Small Area Plan September 20, 2011 Page 18 the Master Thoroughfare Plan Map for the extension of Village Center Drive from Kimball to Nolen. An 8' path is recommended along that future road west of Kimball and may be appropriate to continue east to Nolen Drive. gY� Sidewalk Plan z% °' ®❑� ,�2� Crooked/Kimball 2030 eLvo Special Plan Area 65 LDN Legend EA al Pull 1 —Sidavraklt81 – F 09Praj-h \a w —auin C "'y Remaining Sid_aI,Plan S,—.. m • Recummended Sidexalk PI,,,Segments 11r Fv05 caao-11r1n F-1 Sidewalk Plan Segments 11111"111 y ������Fu1um Oacalaratlon Laney Future Pathv+aye Plan Segmenta Incl luinj •� 75 LDN ----MOW— S "--'Sitlewalk 4 Nanual ----Equeatriaw Ike o ,* Public Parks w - School Prapany n 'IMBALL HILL CT Cmlk.WKimlallall A— Lu w _--DFW Airport Naha Conidar �� ,R p mrlFAe�mrgr<W�eew•eINM r ewiq derdbouramin '` , � Taaamn EeRJrtE AgeservRm �,` ,`� � mea mia�mlylNervYdlehea ,� o a�a<.apkroa �marlq»mW Scale_ •smart diman Mtemlla�9 vmrtrmaaro7 rom waoemmvrt �ROOKEO ---------- MR.. – a� .r.rert.l�u,sw+d.mzsev^ 1.6,000 gPOINrE'oR 4, wyb�mmr^wrk^,.^m 1inch=506 feel yfll � Dela l}eakd 11-17-2009 65 LDN BROOKSHlRE DR ,,` �� dDevebp MSav'ices kam^• k C g'sp�b Hkfinelnn 5ysbems dwega euW� Crooked/Kimball Small Area Plan September 20, 2011 Page 19 Environmental Resource Protection Plan Environmental sustainability is vital to the current and long term financial health of the City and the physical and emotional health of area residents.
