The property under consideration lies just to the north of the approved Southlake Meadows subdivision that is currently being construction. This property was recently added to the City
of Southlake in a Boundary Adjustment Agreement with the Town of Westlake. The property does not have a Land Use Plan designation, so a Comprehensive Land Use Plan amendment to assign
the Medium Density Residential designation is requested. The 8.8 acres is referred to as Phase III of Southlake Meadows, but the proposed R-PUD zoning district would be a stand alone
district.
