Existing Land Use Designation – Office Commercial The Office Commercial land use category is defined by the Southlake 2030 Comprehensive Plan as: Department of Planning & Development Services Department of Planning & Development Services Office Commercial Case No. CP16-006 Page 2 “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”. The applicant’s proposed development complies with the Retail Commercial land use category, which is defined by the Future Land Use Plan as: “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 neigborhoods 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 or 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.” Proposed Land Use Designation – Retail Commercial Retail Commercial Office Commercial Case No. CP16-006 Page 3 ATTACHMENTS: (A) Background Information (B) Vicinity Map Link to Power Point Presentation Link to Plan STAFF CONTACT: Dennis Killough (817) 748-8072 David Jones (817) 748-8070 Case No. Attachment A CP16-006 Page 1 BACKGROUND INFORMATION OWNER: Tres Burros, LLC APPLICANT: Gloria Lechler Trust, et al PROPERTY SITUATION: 130 S White Chapel Blvd, SW of the intersection of Southlake Blvd and White Chapel Blvd LEGAL DESCRIPTION: A portion of Tract 3C, Hiram Granberry Survey, Abstract No. 581 and Tract 1A, Littleberry G.
