PROJECT: Zoning Change and Development Plan for 501 Fox Glenn
EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY: Venado Construction is requesting approval of a Zoning Change and
Development Plan for 501 Fox Glenn on property described as Lot 10, Block 1,
Fox Hollow, an addition to the City of Southlake, Tarrant County, Texas and
located at 501 Fox Glenn. Current Zoning: “SF-20A” Single Family Residential
District. Proposed Zoning: “R-PUD” Residential Planned Unit Development
District. SPIN Neighborhood #5.
DETAILS: This property is located at the end of Fox Glenn approximately 1,150 east of the
intersection with Shady Oaks Dr. The vacant tracts to the east of the subject
property are City owned properties zoned “AG” Agricultural District. The
property to the north is zoned “O-1" Office District and there is an approximately
5,906 square foot single-story office building on that lot.
The purpose of this request is to seek approval of a Zoning Change and
Development Plan from “SF-20A” Single Family Residential District to “R-PUD”
Residential Planned Unit Development District to allow construction of an
approximately 1,100 square foot family quarters in an addition to an existing
two car garage. The requested “R-PUD” zoning proposes the “SF-1A” Single
Family Residential District as the base zoning, with regulations proposed to
allow a side setback of 14.9’ (existing) on the southwest property line and 12’
on the north property line, an accessory building area not to exceed 4% of the
lot area and also to allow an approximately 1,100 square foot family quarters as
a permitted use. A servants or family quarters typically requires approval of a
Special Exception Use (SEU) by the Zoning Board of Adjustment. However, the
SEU is not permitted in the “SF-20A” district, but only in zoning districts with a
greater minimum lot area requirement (“SF-30”, “SF-1A”, “SF-1B”, “SF-2”, etc.).
The subject property is approximately 1.1 acres in size, which meets the
minimum one acre minimum lot area requirement of the “SF-1A” zoning district.
The “SF-1A” district also states that the sum total of accessory buildings shall
not exceed 3% of the lot area. The Zoning Board of Adjustment can approve an
SEU to allow the sum total of accessory buildings to exceed the size permitted
in the district. To avoid having to go to the Zoning Board of Adjustment
separately for approval of the family quarters and to allow the sum total of
accessory buildings to exceed 3% of the lot area, the applicant is proposing the
family quarters as a permitted use in the “R-PUD” district and a regulation has
been added to allow the sum total of accessory buildings to not exceed 4% of
the lot area. The request for the “R-PUD” allows the applicant to propose lesser

PROPERTY SITUATION: 501 Fox Glenn
LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Lot 10, Block 1, Fox Hollow
LAND USE CATEGORY: Medium Density Residential
CURRENT ZONING: “SF-20A” – Agricultural District
PROPOSED ZONING: “R-PUD” – Residential Planned Unit Development District
HISTORY: - The property was annexed into the City in 1956 and given the “AG”
Agricultural District zoning designation.
- A Zoning Change and Concept Plan (ZA96-022) and a Preliminary Plat
(ZA96-023) for the Fox Hollow subdivision was approved April 2, 1996.
- A Final Plat (ZA96-042) for Lots 1-19, Block 1, Fox Hollow with 18
residential lots and one lot with “O-1” Office District zoning was
approved May 9, 1996 and filed July 5, 1996.
- The existing house on the property with approximately 4,000 square
feet of floor area was constructed in 1997 (source: Building Permit).
- The existing two car garage on the property with approximately 600
square feet of floor area was constructed in 2001 (source: Building
Permit).
SOUTHLAKE 2030 PLAN: Consolidated Future Land Use Plan
The 2030 future land use designation for the site is Medium Density
Residential. The purpose of the Medium Density Residential land use
category is to promote a neighborhood setting primarily comprised of
single family detached houses. The Medium Density Residential
category is suitable for any single-family detached residential
development. Other suitable activities are those permitted in the Public
Parks/Open Space and Public/SemiPublic categories. The proposed
development is consistent with the Medium Density Residential
designation.
Mobility & Master Thoroughfare Plan
The Master Thoroughfare Plan shows Fox Hollow as local street.
Pathways Master Plan & Sidewalk Plan
The property is not being replatted, so there is no sidewalk requirement.

TRANSPORTATION
ASSESSMENT:
Area Road Network and Conditions
The property is located on Fox Glenn, which is a local street with 50’ of
right of way. Adequate right of way was dedicated with the original plat
for Fox Hollow.
Traffic Impact
A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) was not required for this development.
There is an existing single family home on the property. An 1,100
square foot family quarters in an addition to an existing two car garage
is proposed.
TREE PRESERVATION: Because the owner occupies this property as a homestead, the Tree
Preservation Ordinance does not regulate the preservation of trees on
this property.
UTILITIES: A 6” water line and a 6” sewer line exist in Fox Glenn to serve the
property.
DRAINAGE: Drainage on the property is generally sheet flow from northwest to
southeast to the rear of the property. A drainage plan will be required
with construction of the proposed addition.
CITIZEN INPUT: A SPIN meeting was not held for this project.
