Comprehensive Plan Analysis
This property is located in the SH 114 Corridor planning area.
Office Commercial Land Use Category
Page 2 Item #6 – First National Bank
Optional Land Use Recommendations
The recommended land use for this property within the Southlake 2035 SH 114 Corridor Land
Use Plan (SH 114 Corridor Plan) is Office Commercial, which is consistent with the existing
future land use. The purpose of the Office Commercial land use category as defined by the SH
114 Corridor Plan is as follows:
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.
The definition for the Office Commercial land use category also states that “Properties with this
designation may serve as a transition between established residential neighborhoods, major
roadways, and retail development.”
Optional Land Use Designation – Corporate Office Overlay
The subject property falls within the Multi-Tenant Office Overlay, which is one of the three
Corporate Office Overlay designations within the City’s SH 114 Corridor. The SH 114
Corridor Land Use Plan gives the following purpose
and definition for the Corporate Office Overlay:
The Corporate Office Overlay is an overlay
category designed and intended for the use
of high-quality, medium to large-scale
office buildings or campuses and their
ancillary uses and structures. This district is
inherently suited for the development of
office developments 50,000 square feet or
larger for the use of corporate or
regional headquarters, professional
services firms, financial firms,
information technology and media
companies, biomedical companies, and other users which drive demand for
medium to large-scale office buildings or campuses. Ideally, such
developments will be located in areas adjacent to and contiguous with existing

users of the same type and scale to create a critical mass of daytime population
within the city. These uses will be well-connected to the existing highway and
arterial street network, with the buildings themselves typically presenting
one or more significant façades along the 114 Corridor.
Multi-Tenant Office Overlay
The Multi-Tenant Office category is a commercial overlay category designed and intended for
the use of high-quality, medium to large-scale office buildings of 2-4 stories that may be
build-to-suit or speculative (“spec”) built. These buildings are less prominent than high-rise office
with floor layouts that are designed for maximum user flexibility.
Transportation
Per the exhibits provided by the applicant, there is a proposed driveway along Shady Oaks Dr.
as well as what appears to be a right-in, right-out only ingress / egress point along the SH 114
Frontage Rd. Shady Oaks Dr. is classified as C2U (60’ 2-lane undivided collector) per the
Southlake 2030 Mobility Master Plan. The street is built to this specification. See graphic below:
Page 4 Item #6 – First National Bank
SH 114 is classified as a Freeway, and has 500’ of ROW. See graphic below:

Revision was filed to accommodate the new alignment of Shady Oaks Dr. Lot E1 (to the east of
Shady Oaks Dr.) has a future land use designation of “flood plain.” See the original and revised
plats of record below.

Zoning
The current zoning on the property is “AG”

Applicable Comprehensive Plan Recommendations:
Southlake 2035 SH 114 Corridor Plan
LU12 - New office development should conform to areas and formats addressed in overlay
districts.
LU14 - New office development should conform to areas and formats addressed in overlay
districts.
LU15 - Surface parking along S.H. 114 is discouraged unless adequately screened and
buffered. Underground parking or structured parking is preferred when development scale
permits.
LU16 - Modify the Zoning Ordinance to allow for incentives on projects that reduce their
development footprint such as but not limited to allowing for a greater height or number of
stories permitted in conjunction with a massing study, if a greater degree of landscaping or open
space is provided or with features such as underground/structured parking.
LU17 - Encourage creative design and development to address potential impact on adjacent
residential subdivisions. Future development 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.
Economic Development Master Plan
ED7 - Evaluate the existing multi-tenant garden office market supply/demand and establish land
use policies based on the results. METRIC - Based on the supply/demand analysis, modify the
Southlake 2035 Land Use Plan and identify specific areas where multi-tenant garden office
should be located. These developments should be discouraged along State Hwy 114.

First National Bank – Corridor Meeting August 2, 2018
Proposed New Southlake Banking Center
First National Bank has proudly been an active member of the Southlake Community since 2002. The
Southlake Main Office is currently in a leased facility located in Southlake Town Square at 1540 East
Southlake Boulevard. Upon acceptance of this proposal, the bank will move forward with development
that will allow for the relocation of the First National Bank Southlake Office.
Key Points:
• The intention is to construct a larger facility to accommodate current and future growth of not
only the bank, but also the City of Southlake.
• The bank has placed 2.2 acres, along the north side access road near the corner of Hwy 114 and
Dove Road under contract, with the intent to develop and construct its new facility.
• The bank intends to apply for a zoning change to S-P-1 from the site’s current agricultural zone.
Development Highlights
• This facility will be approximately 16,000 square feet
• Two and a half stories tall, approximately 50’ feet high
• Steel building structure
• Masonry (stone/stucco) and glass façade
• Rooftop HVAC units screened by building parapet
• Signage includes upper story signage with 36” letters as shown in the design presentation. The
bank is aware this height does not comply with the city ordinance and is planning on preparing a
Master Sign Plan application to promote consistency and compatibility of signs with the
architectural and site design features of the development.
We are asking the 2035 Southlake Planning Corridor Committee for guidance in completion of the
proposed planned development, in a way that achieves the banks’ visibility goals, without compromising
the intent of the City of Southlake Ordinances.
