PROPERTY SITUATION: 2757 Ridgecrest Dr.
LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Lot 1 and 2, Block 1, Spring Oaks Addition
LAND USE CATEGORY: Low Density Residential
CURRENT ZONING: "AG" Agricultural District
HISTORY: - The property was annexed into the Town of Southlake in 1957 and given
the “AG” Agricultural District zoning designation.
- A Plat for Lots 1 and 2, Block 1, Spring Oaks Addition was filed on June
25, 1984.
- The existing home on the property was constructed in 2003 (Source:
Tarrant Appraisal District and Building Permit).
WATER & SEWER: The property will be served by an existing1.5” water line that is connected to
an 8” water line in Ridgecrest Dr. An 8” sewer line exists in Ridgecrest Dr., but
connecting to the line is not feasible due to the line being at a higher elevation
than the home. The property will remain on a septic system.
DRAINAGE: Drainage on the property is generally sheet flow from west to east across the
property.
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.
