Zoning Change & Concept Plan for Kirkwood Grove West –
ZA17-060
Item 7B
Owner: Southlake Dove Associates, LLC
Applicant: D2 Investments, Inc. and DeOtte, Inc.
Request: Request to rezone approximately 55.3 acres including approval of a
Zoning Change and Development Plan from “S-P-2” Generalized Site
Plan District to “TZD” Transitional Zoning District for Metairie of
Southlake to develop 58 residential lots and 3 open space lots on
approximately 29.387 acres and approval of a Zoning Change and
Concept Plan for Kirkwood Grove West to revise the “S-P-2” boundary
previously established on approximately 25.914 acres (ZA17-060)
Location: Located south of E. Dove Rd. between W. State Hwy. 114 and N.
White Chapel Blvd. at 500 and 550 W. State Hwy. 114
ZA17-060
The following site specific recommendations are included for the subject property:
•Retain the existing underlying Mixed Use land use designation and apply the Campus Office Overlay district.
•Future development on these properties should be approved in a manner that is sensitive to potential impacts on adjacent
residential areas, particularly as related to noise, traffic, building heights, lighting and views.
•Provide a corner enhancement feature at SH 114 and W. Dove Rd in conjunction with development on the west half of the
Fidelis tract.
•Development of the Shivers property should be integrated with the Carillon commercial to the east.
•For areas immediately along and east of the planned Kirkwood Blvd. extension, low-impact development such as residential with
a similar design and pattern to the existing neighborhoods across White Chapel may be considered as a transition to the
neighboring single family residential properties. Also a low-scale or garden office component may be considered if development
is planned in a comprehensive manner which maximizes tree preservation.
•Buffer any residential uses from non-residential uses on this property.
•Traffic signals at major street intersections should be anticipated and addressed with development.
•As development is proposed, traffic impacts on Dove St. and White Chapel Blvd (including the traffic circle) should be assess ed.
•Development should be sensitive to the existing tree cover and attempts should be made during the planning process to
maximize tree cover along with natural features and topography.
•Any development should be walkable and pedestrian friendly.
•Family history of Shivers tract should be preserved or recognized possibly through use of open space.
•As development occurs drive access to Kirkwood Blvd. should be encouraged with limited drive access onto White Chapel Blvd.

P&Z Conditions of Approval
P&Z conditions in the motion for approval at their 10/19 meeting Applicant’s Response
Provide Council more details on the landscape plan for the Dove Road
portion of the property and the White Chapel portion of the property.
The applicant has reconfigured and enlarged the open space area along
W. Dove Rd. on the Development Plan. The plantings that were shown
on the previous plans are to be provided in the reconfigured open space
area. The overall open space area has increased from 17.3% to 18%.
Consider options on reallocating the higher density lots on the far west
side of the property to maybe bring those internally.
One lot on the west side of the property south of Street ‘E’ has been
removed. The lot count has been reduced from 59 lots to 58 lots.
Provide more detailed drawings of the mailbox structures to include the
masonry on the outside of the mailbox and the metalwork used for the
mailboxes.
The U.S. Postal Service has given preliminary approval for individual
mailboxes for each residential lot in the development, so the kiosks have
been removed from the plans.
Meet with the residents prior to the next City Council meeting to try to
get resolutions and further ideas from them.
The applicant met with the neighbors on October 30 and November 1,
2017. Details of the meetings will be presented by the applicant at the
12/5 Council meeting.
Take both options with respect to the White’s Chapel entry/exit;
staggered and aligned with Brentwood, to City Council.
The applicant is proposing the staggered and aligned options of the
Development Plan that were previously presented.
