Variance Requested Tree Conservation/Landscape Review Keith Martin Landscape Administrator Phone: (817) 748-8229 E-mail: kmartin@ci.southlake.tx.us TREE CONSERVATION COMMENTS: * The proposed tree conservation complies with the Existing Tree Cover Preservation Requirements of the Tree Preservation Ordinance. There is 14.56% of existing tree cover on the site and 70% of the tree cover is required to be preserved. The applicant is proposing to preserve 72.62% of the existing tree cover. * Except as provided by subsection 7.2.b. of the Tree Preservation Ordinance, a Tree Conservation Analysis or Tree Conservation Plan shall be approved if it will preserve existing tree cover in accordance with the percentage requirements established by Table 2.0. If the property has previously received a tree permit related to development, the percentage of existing tree cover at the time the first such permit was issued shall be used to calculate the minimum existing tree cover that must be preserved under this section. Case No. Attachment C ZA18-0028 Page 3 Table 2.0 – Existing Tree Cover Preservation Requirements Percentage of existing tree cover on the entire site Minimum percentage of the existing tree cover to be preserved* 0% – 20% 70% 20.1 – 40% 60% 40.1% - 60% 50% 60.1% - 80% 40% 80.1% - 100% 30% *The minimum percentage of existing tree cover to be preserved shall exclude any area in public rights -of-way as approved by City Council. * Please be aware that all existing trees shown to be preserved on the City Council approved Tree Conservation Plan must be preserved and protected during all phases and construction of the development. Alteration or removal of any of the existing trees shown to be preserved on the approved Tree Conservation Plan is a violation of the Tree Preservation Ordinance and the zoning as approved by the Southlake City Council. Please ensure that the layout of all structures, easements, utilities, structures grading, and any other structure proposed to be constructed do not conflict with existing trees intended to be preserved. LANDSCAPE COMMENTS: 1. The interior landscape area seems to be incorrect. Based on 50% of the proposed floor area I calculated 5,860 square feet instead of 6,098 square feet. * The proposed building addition exceeds both 30% of the existing building floor area and 5,000 square feet, so both interior landscape and bufferyards landscaping are required to be provided. The applicant is providing the required interior landscaping and bufferyards. * The full width of the required bufferyards is provided , but the canopy trees and accent trees required within the east bufferyard have been relocated on the site in order to accommodate for the existing overhead and underground utilities. (Variance Requested) Tree Preservation Ordinance 585-E; Section 12.4 A person commits an offense if the person: a. plants any required replacement tree within an area such that the mature canopy of the tree will interfere with existing or proposed overhead utility lines; b. plants any required replacement tree or street tree within an area such that the mature critical root zone of the tree will interfere with existing or proposed underground public utility lines (including water lines, sewer lines, transmission lines or other utilities), or such that the installation and/or maintenance of such utility lines will, in reasonable probability, require activity in the mature critical root zone of such tree; * Existing tree credits for interior landscape a bufferyard canopy trees and accent trees are proposed to be taken. Existing tree credits shall only be granted if the tree/s a re in healthy condition and all requirements of the Tree Preservation Ordinance have been met as determined at the time of inspection for a Permanent Certificate of Occupancy. * Indicates informational comment. # Indicates required items comment. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ Case No. Attachment C ZA18-0028 Page 4 Public Works/Engineering Review Kevin Ferrer, P.E., Civil Engineer Phone: (817) 748-8274 E-mail: kferrer@ci.southlake.tx.us GENERAL COMMENTS: Please adjust proposed sidewalk to have a minimum 2’ separation with the back of curb.

Of paramount importance to the residents Southview is not allowing a commercial driveway to penetrate the residential street, Lake Wood Drive. The intr oduction of commercial vehicle traffic onto the residential roadway will have detrimental impacts to our community. Lake Wood Drive meets the definition of “Local Street” under Section 2.2 Definitions of Driveway Ordinance No: 634. Section 5.2 of the ordinance “General Design Criteria,” Section c. “Driveways Prohibited,” clearly states that a commercial driveway shall not be permitted on a connector or local street unless the tract or lot has no other public access. The site in question currently has dir ect access onto North Carroll Avenue, and it has sufficient frontage to afford the subject property flexibility to expand or relocate the existing driveway entrance. Alternatively, the proposed development could create a “driveway common” with the adjacent shopping center, as described under Section 3.5, “Common Access.” The insertion of a commercial access point onto Lake Wood Drive would result in irreparable harm to our neighborhood: it would decrease property values; it would create a safety hazard f or us and our children by mixing unfamiliar vehicle operators with neighborhood pedestrians and bicycles as there are no sidewalks on Lake Wood Drive; it would introduce an unwelcomed flow of commercial traffic into the Lake Wood, Southview and Foxborough neighborhoods; and it would create traffic backups at the exits to our low density zoned community. I also object to the requested variance for the reduction of available parking spaces from the requirement of 63 down to 60. Such a reduction would increa se the likelihood that patrons to the businesses housed within the subject property would elect to park on Lake Wood Drive, diminishing the quaint, well treed, country appearance of the entry into our neighborhoods. I further object to any effort to deviate from the Master Pathways Plan as it relates to the construction of sidewalks. North Carroll Avenue is considered the entry point to Southlake, with the majority of visitor traffic using the Carroll exit from Hwy 114 as the primary point of access to o ur community.

Of paramount importance to the residents Southview is not allowing a commercial driveway to penetrate the residential street, Lake Wood Drive. The introduction of commercial vehicle traffic o nto the residential roadway will have detrimental impacts to our community. Lake Wood Drive meets the definition of “Local Street” under Section 2.2 Definitions of Driveway Ordinance No: 634. Section 5.2 of the ordinance “General Design Criteria,” Sectio n c. “Driveways Prohibited,” clearly states that a commercial driveway shall not be permitted on a connector or local street unless the tract or lot has no other public access. The site in question currently has direct access onto North Carroll Avenue, an d it has sufficient frontage to afford the subject property flexibility to expand or relocate the existing driveway entrance. Alternatively, the proposed development could create a “driveway common” with the adjacent shopping center, as described under S ection 3.5, “Common Access.” The insertion of a commercial access point onto Lake Wood Drive would result in irreparable harm to our neighborhood: it would decrease property values; it would create a safety hazard for us and our children by mixing unfamiliar vehicle operators with neighborhood pedestrians and bicycles as there are no sidewalks on Lake Wood Drive; it would introduce an unwelcomed flow of commercial traffic into the Lake Wood, Southview and Foxborough neighborhoods; and it would create traff ic backups at the exits to our low density zoned community. I also object to the requested variance for the reduction of available parking spaces from the requirement of 63 down to 60. Such a reduction would increase the likelihood that patrons to the businesses housed within the subject property would elect to park on Lake Wood Drive, diminishing the quaint, well treed, country appearance of the entry into our neighborhoods.

Case No. Attachment E ZA18-0028 Page 38 Case No. Attachment E ZA18-0028 Page 39 Ted Harbour (additional comments) Thank you for your consideration. I did not put this thought in the letter but probably should have. We have had an increase in crime in our neighborhood during the time I have lived there. Much of that is, I think, due to our proximity to 114 and Southlake Blvd as well as Town Square. We are a very convenient neighborhood for people to wander into. We live on the only street that connects Lakewood to Foxborough and on to Southlake Blvd. I have a well-founded concern that a new entry from the commercial tract onto Lakewood’s entry street would significantly add to traffic in and through our neighborhoods and an increase in crime. As the letter points out, it is already difficult to exit from Lakewood or Southview to go north on Carroll. If the only direct exit from Lakewood to Carroll is shared with commercial traffic, it will significantly impact accessibility for Lakewood and Southview, as well. The parking variance is also a problem as there is insufficient parking and congestion along Carroll just south of 114 already. I think this is in large part because the existing commercial developments on the west side pre-existed the expansion of Carroll and, frankly, are now overbuilt for the property. Increasing the density and allowing a commercial building to provide less parking would just exacerbate the problem. Our three neighborhoods are certainly not “overbuilt” for our lots and it seems inconsistent to have commercial buildings that are crowded into space that is inadequate for their property sizes adjacent to and sharing our point of entry. We enjoy the space in Southlake and that is one of the reasons we stay here. We enjoy the low density of our three neighborhoods and certainly don’t see a compelling reason to allow variances in an already over-crowded commercial area. Thank you again for your service.

The introduction of commercial vehicle traffic onto the residential roadway will have detrimental impacts to our community. Lake Wood Drive meets the definition of “Local Street” under Section 2.2 Definitions of Driveway Ordinance No: 634. Section 5.2 of the ordinance “General Design Criteria,” Section c. “Driveways Prohibited,” clearly states that a commercial driveway shall not be permitted on a connector or local street unless the tract or lot has no other public access. The site in question currently has direct access onto North Carroll Avenue, and it has sufficient frontage to afford the subject property flexibility to expand or relocate the existing driveway entrance. Alternatively, the proposed development could create a “driveway common” with the adjacent shopping center, as described under Section 3.5, “Common Access.” The insertion of a commercial access point onto Lake Wood Drive would result in irreparable harm to our neighborhood: it would decrease property values; it would create a safety hazard for us and our children by mixing unfamiliar vehicle operators with neighborhood pedestrians and bicycles as there are no sidewalks on Lake Wood Drive; it would introduce an unwelcomed flow of commercial traffic into the Lake Wood, Southview and Foxborough neighborhoods; and it would create traffic backups at the exits to our low density zoned community. I also object to the requested variance for the reduction of available parking spaces from the requirement of 63 down to 60. Such a reduction would increase the likelihood that patrons to the businesses housed within the subject property would elect to park on Lake Wood Drive, diminishing the quaint, well treed, country appearance of the entry into our neighborhoods. I further object to any effort to deviate from the Master Pathways Plan as it relates to the construction of sidewalks. North Carroll Avenue is considered the entry point to Southlake, with the majority of visitor traffic using the Carroll exit from Hwy 114 as the primary point of access to our community. The “Master Pathways Plan” was developed to ensure that all new construction efforts within our city meet the highest standards for appearance and consistency throughout. To deviate from that plan at such a critical location would undermine the exhaustive efforts that went into the creation of the “Master Pathways Plan,” be a disservice to the residents of Southlake, and set a bad precedent for all future development. In closing, I respectfully direct the Planning and Zoning Commission’s attention to Ordinance No. 1173 which adopts the Vision, Goals and Objectives of the “Southlake 2035 Plan.” One need not read too far into Ordinance 1173 to recognize the overarching goal of the plan is to ensure “Quality Development”, driven by a citizen first sentiment throughout. I pray that the Commission thoughtfully considers the request of residents of Lake Wood Acres, Southview and Foxborough and denies the variances as requested in Case No: ZA18-0028.

Of paramount importance to the residents Southview is not allowing a commercial driveway to penetrate the residential street, Lake Wood Drive. The introduction of commercial vehicle traffic onto the residential roadway will have detrimental impacts to our community, which already struggles with the increase traffic on Carroll Avenue and difficulty in exiting and entering the subdivision.

If doubling the size of the existing property is allowed, it will create a traffic problem so much worse than it is now, and nobody seems to be able to figure out how to make it compatible with the present zoning laws. An exit into Lakewood makes the whole neighborhood subjected to people driving through to get out other exits and endangers many residents, including children. Once the increased size of the building is approved, the next step will have to be how to ease the traffic congestion and eliminate the danger to everyone in the area. How will that happen? Seems the consultants should have foreseen the Chuys mess before it was approved. Seems there will be limited options going forward if major sq. footage is approved. We are looking at greed as opposed to the need to keep people safe. How can you disagree?? Sincerely, Bernice McCauley 20 yr. resident at 900 Wildwood lane S.L.
