Subject: Item 8A: Resolution No. 18-008, Appointing members to the
Southlake 2035 Health & Wellness Master Plan Committee.
Action
Requested: Approval of Resolution No. 18-008, Appointing members to
the Southlake 2035 Health & Wellness Master Plan
Committee.
Background
Information: The purpose of this item is to appoint the Southlake 2035
Health & Wellness Master Plan Committee to develop the
Southlake 2035 Health & Wellness Master Plan.
The City Council has historically appointed committees to
work with staff to develop the various Comprehensive Plan
elements.
On September 19, 2017 during Item 8A (Resolution 17-038)
City Council made Committee appointments for the Public
Art Master Plan, Youth Master Plan and Water, Waste Water
and Storm Water Master Plan. At that meeting City Council
did not make a Committee appointment for the Health &
Wellness Master Plan, but rather directed staff to come back
to a future meeting and provide the Council with an overview
of the responsibilities of the Health & Wellness Master Plan
Committee in addition to providing details on the frequency
of Committee meetings.
On December 5, 2017 staff retuned to City Council and
during Work Session Item 4C made presentation covering
the tentative Health & Wellness Master Plan scope,
highlighted objectives of the Health & Wellness Master Plan
Committee, provided a project timeline, and ultimately

received City Council direction to move forward with the
development of this new master plan element. City Council
asked for staff to take a different approach with this
Committee, opting to post applications that could be
completed for those interested in joining this Committee.
On January 18, 2018 the application was posted to the City’s
website, and was open until February 16, 2018. The City
received 27 total applications.
The Health & Wellness Master Plan represents a new
comprehensive plan element for the City of Southlake.
Planning and Development Services anticipates the
development of this plan lasting from April to September
2018. Adopting of this plan element is expected to be early
in FY 2019.
Among other things, the Committee will work with staff to
review existing City policy documents relating to health and
wellness, evaluate the current health & wellness landscape,
analyze current and future needs related to health and
wellness and Develop and recommend approval of the
Health & Wellness Master Plan.
The comprehensive plan is a reflection of the community’s
values and serves as a blueprint for Southlake’s future. More
specifically, the comprehensive plan establishes a
framework to coordinate the city’s activities and to guide the
city’s decision-making for the next 20 years. As such, the
comprehensive plan and its components are updated on a
regular basis.
Financial
Consideration: There is an inherent cost savings associated with developing
land use plan elements in house. Although certain plan
elements will include consulting work, the plans will be
drafted and carried through the development process by City
staff.
Strategic Link: The proposed resolution aligns with the City Strategy Map
under the Focus Areas “Partnerships & Volunteerism” as
well as the Corporate Objectives “C5” Promote opportunities
for partnerships and volunteer involvement and “C6”
Enhance the sense of community by providing excellent
customer service and citizen engagement opportunities. This
initiative also aligns with the City’s Critical Business
