Case No.: ZA18-0030 Review by: Jerod Potts Date of Review: 10/10/18
Project Name: The ParQ
Current Project Address: 351 W. Southlake Blvd.
Existing Zoning: S-P-1 (Ord. No. 480-638)
Proposed Zoning: S-P-1
Existing Future Land Use: Mixed Use
Proposed Future Land Use: No proposed change.
Overview
The subject property is included in the FM 1709 Corridor
planning area, as discussed in the Southlake 2035 FM
1709 – FM 1938 Corridor Plan.
The subject property has an existing future land use
designation of Mixed Use.
Staff note: this proposal received entitlement (City Case
# ZA13-019, Capelli Offices and Suites) through the
adoption of Ordinance No. 480-638. It is also worth mentioning that in 2013 the applicant
received approval on a Land Use Plan Amendment for Capelli Offices & Suites (CP13-001) to
change the then land use for this site from Office Commercial to Mixed Use, justifying the
allowance for limited retail commercial uses associated with the salon suites. With the current
Current Zoning: S-P-1 Future Land Use: Mixed Use SITE
request, the applicant is proposing to revise the zoning to remove the salon uses and change
the approved building elevations, and add square footage to each floor by removing covered
walkways and balconies shown on the approved plan.
Mixed Use Land Use Category
Staff note: While the applicant is requesting to omit the commercial uses from the approved
zoning, the primary purpose for the request is to modify the existing building façade. The
comprehensive plan review will focus primarily on the aesthetic and functional components of
the land use category within the current scope of the existing zoning, rather than diving into
other scale and context criteria such as hotel, open space, civic and/or single-family residential
uses.
The purpose of the Mixed Use land use category is to provide an option for large-scale, master-
planned, mixed use developments that combine land uses such as office facilities, shopping,
dining, parks, and residential uses.
Below are descriptions of applicable Scale and Context Criteria for the Mixed Use Future Land
Use category. For a complete description of this category, please view the 2035 Consolidated
Future Land Use Plan.
General: Buildings and their pedestrian entrances are to be oriented towards internal streets.
Larger-format retail uses (with footprints larger than 40,000 s.f.) shall be located adjacent to the
arterial or highway with pedestrian entrances from internal streets.
Retail and Office Uses: Pedestrian-oriented or automobile-oriented.
