PROJECT: Zoning Change & Site Plan for Brad Moss Dental Office
EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY: On behalf of Dr. Richard B. & Polly Moss, GCA, Inc. is requesting approval of a
Zoning Change and Site Plan for Brad Moss Dental Office on property described
as Lots 9 and 10, Oaks Addition, an addition to the City of Southlake, Tarrant
County, Texas located at 1011 N. Carroll Avenue and 1170 Casey Court,
Southlake, Texas. Current Zoning: “C-1” Neighborhood Commercial District and
“AG” Agricultural District. Requested Zoning: “S-P-1” Detailed Site Plan District.
SPIN Neighborhood # 3.
REQUEST: GCA, Inc. is requesting approval of a Zoning Change and Site Plan from “C-1”
Neighborhood Commercial District and “AG” Agricultural District to “S-P-1”
Detailed Site Plan District to allow expansion of an existing dental office building
and add off-street parking spaces to the site.
Currently, the Brad Moss Dental Office building is approximately 1,296 square feet
and is located exclusively on Lot 10, Oaks Addition, being approximately 0.38
acres and has a “C-1” Neighborhood Commercial District zoning designation. The
adjacent property to the east, known as Lot 9, Oaks Addition, and being
approximately 0.32 acres, has never been developed and currently has an “AG”
Agricultural District zoning designation. The purpose of this request is to merge the
two lots and re-zone as “S-P-1” Detailed Site Plan District with “C-1” Neighborhood
Commercial District uses in order to accommodate an expansion of the existing
building by approximately 1,768 square feet (total building area as proposed is
±3,129 square feet) and to reconfigure existing parking and add 13 (previously 15)
spaces to accommodate the site.
The proposed “S-P-1” Detailed Site Plan District with “C-1” Neighborhood
Commercial District uses includes zoning regulations that will accommodate the
proposed improvements as well as allow for some of the existing conditions to
remain. The proposed “S-P-1” zoning regulations can be found in Attachment ‘C’
page 4 of this report.
There is an existing 85 square foot storage building located on the northeast
corner of Lot 10. It is shown on the proposed site plan to be relocated behind the
new expansion area. The applicant is requesting the storage shed be allowed to
remain until the expansion construction is completed. The storage building is
intended to be used temporarily to store files during construction.

SOUTHLAKE 2030 PLAN:
Future Land Use Plan
The subject property is designated Retail Commercial. 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
Case No. Attachment A
ZA15-111 Page 2
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.
Mobility & Master Thoroughfare Plan
The Mobility & Master Thoroughfare Plan shows North Carroll Avenue as a
2-lane undivided Arterial Roadway with a variable width right of way of ± 80
feet; Casey Court is classified as a Local Street and is platted to have a
minimum of 30 feet of right of way.
Pathways Master Plan & Sidewalk Plan
The site plan proposes 8 foot sidewalk construction along N. Carroll
Avenue with this development. This is consistent with the Official Pathways
Map that indicates a >=8’ Future Multi-Use along this portion of N. Carroll
Avenue. The applicant is requesting relief from sidewalk construction along
Casey Court.
TRANSPORTATION
ASSESSMENT: Area Road Network and Conditions
The proposed site plan indicates three driveway access points; one
existing drive onto N. Carroll Avenue; one existing drive onto Casey Court;
and, one proposed drive onto Casey Court.

WATER & SEWER: Water: The site is serviced by an existing 2-inch water line located along
the south side of Casey Court that connects to a 12-inch water line located
on the west side of N. Carroll Avenue.
Sewer: The property is currently under septic system. A CIP is planned
which will facilitate the property to access the City’s sewer. The sewer
extension is tentatively scheduled to be completed by the end of 2016. The
applicant has indicated the existing septic system will be replaced by a
newly constructed lateral line to the City’s future manhole near the
Case No. Attachment A
ZA15-111 Page 3
southeast corner of the subject property. The future manhole may precede
the completion of new on-site construction.
TREE PRESERVATION: The submitted Tree Conservation Plan proposes approximately 55%
preservation of existing tree cover. The site currently has approximately
73% of existing tree cover which if under a standard zoning district requires
that a minimum of 40% of the existing tree cover area be preserved.
However, under an S-P-1 zoning, the City Council shall consider the Plan
in conjunction with the corresponding development application. The City
Council shall approve the Plan if the Council finds that the Plan provides for
the:
i. placement of building pads, parking areas, driveways, streets, and
utility easements so as to maximize the preservation of environmental
features of the property including mature tree stands, natural creeks
and ponds, and significant grades;
ii. maximizes the preservation of tree cover preservation areas indicated
on the Environmental Resource Protection Map;
iii. maximizes the preservation of existing tree stands with the potential to
buffer residential areas from the noise, glare, and visual effects of
nonresidential uses;
iv. maximizes the preservation of existing trees, if any, adjoining a natural
or man-made drainage creek;
v. maximizes the preservation of existing protected trees along rural
roadways and other streets as identified and prioritized in the Street
Typology designation; and
vi. mitigation of altered trees through proposed tree replacement
procedures pursuant to this Ordinance.

Project Narrative
We are requesting approval of a zoning change for Lots 9 & 10, Oaks Addition, from C-1 and AG to SP-1
to allow for construction of a 1768 square foot addition to the existing 1299 square foot dental office
building and the addition of 13 (previously 15) parking spaces.
We also are requesting approval of the relocation of an existing 85 square foot detached storage building
from outside the proposed building line to inside the proposed building line. This storage building is
intended to be removed once construction is completed. It will be used as a temporary storage place for
office files.
Please consider the following points regarding the existing and proposed conditions:
Depth of the subject property precludes use of commercial refuse collection due to lack of
maneuvering distances for entry and exits to private facility location. New collection location along
Casey Court will include both 4 foot high screen fencing and landscaping to minimize visual
impact on street and adjacent property.
Existing septic system will be replaced by a newly constructed lateral line to City’s proposed new
manhole near the southeast corner of the subject property. By City Engineering estimates, the
new manhole construction may precede the completion of new on-site construction.
Because Dr. Moss does not plan an increase in number of dentists, no increase in proposed or
existing driveway use is expected.
The City’s engineering department has indicated that it will not ask for any change in roadway
width or pavement for Casey Court.
Property location and Casey Court pre-existed S. H. 114 Freeway construction.
At present the subject property driveway is the only driveway existing or proposed along North
Carroll Avenue between intersections.
It is imperative we keep the existing west drive off of Casey Court into the existing parking area.
Without the circulation capability, our handicapped parking space becomes a backaround
requirement right at the then-only entry point off of Carroll.
Existing trees and existing drive patterns do not allow for continued use of existing parking lot if
parking islands are required to be added. The existing trees and landscaping existing and
proposed around the existing parking lot create similar visual relief as if new islands were
created. Parking islands in the proposed additional parking area would create maneuvering
barriers that could require removal of existing major trees. The retention of substantial portions of
the existing tree cover, the proposed additional landscaping, and the parking pattern of the
proposed lot creates similar relief to planned landscape islands in a more pleasant natural
appearing arrangement with minimal loss of existing tree canopy.
The relatively shallow depth of the existing lots provides for the maximum hose lay to all parts of
the existing and proposed structures without a fire apparatus leaving public pavements.
Overall landscape and interior requirements will be met. The large number of oak trees on the
subject lots permits a high percentage of retained tree canopy.
Presentation Intent and Summary
Dr. Brad Moss has operated a general dentistry office site at 1011 North Carroll Street for twenty -five
years. He admired the site for its “little office in the woods” ambiance and purchased it from the dentist
who originally established the office. Over the twenty-five years of his occupancy, Dr. Moss has
continually upgraded the structure and dental office paraphernalia but now has reached the limit of
practical improvement within the existing available space. The proposed expansion is not intended to
increase the number of dentists or support personnel but to provide the present staff with more
comfortable facilities and more technical capabilities. At the same time, he wishes to maintain the “little
house in the woods” atmosphere.
Case No. Attachment C
ZA15-111 Page 3
The long-awaited opportunity to purchase the presently vacant lot to the east has allowed the space
needed for the proposed expansion and the zoning-required parking, though it isn’t likely that all of the
required parking will be utilized during the course of a normal operating day. The site plan has been
developed with the intent of maintaining all possible desirable trees. Likewise, the grading plan minimizes
major grade change near existing trees to keep those viable. The landscape plan as well takes
advantage of existing trees. All requested zoning details and variances are designed to maintain the
relaxed atmosphere of the existing site and surrounding area.
