CASE NO: ZA19-0050
PROJECT: Plat Revision for Lots 12R1 and 12R2, S. Freeman No. 525 Addition
EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY: Jeremy Carrasco and Cindy Oates are requesting approval of a Plat Revision
for Lots 12R1 and 12R2, S. Freeman No. 525 Addition on property described
as Lot 12, S. Freeman No. 525 Addition, an addition to the City of Southlake,
Tarrant County, Texas and Tract 5D01, Samuel Freeman Survey, Abstract No.
525, City of Southlake, Tarrant County Texas and located at 616 and 712
Shady Ln., Southlake, Texas. Current Zoning: “SF-1A” Single Family
Residential District. SPIN Neighborhood #4.
DETAILS: The proposed residential lots are located on Shady Ln. approximately 2,000
feet north of the E. S.H. 114 frontage road.
The purpose of this request is to seek approval of a Plat Revision to relocate
the property line between an existing platted lot and an unplatted tract so that
an existing driveway is completely within a lot boundary instead of crossing a
property line. The driveway is currently in a temporary access easement. The
lot line is proposed to be shifted to the approximate location of the existing
fence between the lots. A Special Exception Use (SEU) per Ordinance No. 480,
Section 44.12(6) for a reduction in the required setback from property lines for a
residential accessory building was approved by the Zoning Board of Adjustment
on March 28, 2019 (ZBA19-0002). The SEU was approved to reduce the
required setback for an existing garage at 712 Shady Ln. from 20’ to
approximately 13’ to allow the lot line to be shifted to the north. There will be no
physical changes to the existing accessory building at 712 Shady Ln. or any
other structures on either lot.
ACTION NEEDED: Consider approval of a Plat Revision

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
OWNER: Jeremy Carrasco and Cindy Oates
APPLICANT: Cindy Oates and Jeremy Carrasco
PROPERTY SITUATION: 616 and 712 Shady Ln.
LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Lot 12, S. Freeman No. 525 Addition and Tract 5D01, Samuel Freeman
Survey, Abstract No. 525
LAND USE CATEGORY: Low Density Residential
CURRENT ZONING: “SF-1A” – Single Family Residential District
HISTORY: The following is the history of the property to the best of our knowledge
and belief:
- The existing home on the property was constructed in 1955 (Source:
Tarrant Appraisal District).
- The property was annexed into the City in 1956.
The “SF-1A” Single Family Residential District zoning was approved
with the adoption of the Zoning Ordinance No 480 and the official
Zoning Map on September 19, 1989.
- The approximately 748 square foot garage on 712 Shady Ln. was
constructed in 1999. (Source: Building Permit).
- A Boundary Line Agreement and Temporary Access Easement to
allow an existing driveway to cross the property line was filed March 8,
April 13, 2009.
- A Variance to the minimum lot area (ZBA-631) to allow an approximate
lot area of 37,548 square feet (43,560 square feet or one acre required)
was granted by the Zoning Board of Adjustment on January 24, 2013.
- A Plat Showing for Lot 12, S. Freeman No. 525 Addition was approved
on January 31, 2013 and filed February 8, 2013.
- The existing home on 616 Shady Ln. was constructed in 2013 (Source:
Building Permit).
- A Supplemental Boundary Line Agreement and Temporary Access
Easement was filed on March 28, 2017 prior to the current owner
acquiring the property to allow a wrought iron fence to be constructed
along the driveway (see 2009 agreement and easement above).
- A Special Exception Use per Ordinance No. 480, Section 44.12(6) for
a reduction in the required setback from property lines for a residential
accessory building was approved by the Zoning Board of Adjustment on
March 28, 2019. The SEU was approved to reduce the setback for an
existing garage from 20’ to approximately 13’ to allow the lot line
between 616 and 712 Shady Ln. to be shifted to the north so that the
existing driveway on 616 Shady Lane is completely within the lot
boundary.
SOUTHLAKE 2035 PLAN: Consolidated Future Land Use Plan
The 2035 future land use designation for the site is “Low Density
Residential”. The lots as proposed comply with this designation.
Case No. Attachment A
ZA19-0050 Page 2
Low Density Residenital:
The purpose of the Low Density Residential land use category is to
provide for and to protect low intensity detached single-family residential
development that promotes the openness and rural character of
Southlake.
Definition: The Low Density Residential category is for detached single-
family residential development at a net density of one or fewer dwelling
units per acre. Net density is the number of dwelling units per net acre,
which excludes acreage in all rights-of-way, easements, and lots
designated for public or private streets. Other suitable activities are
those permitted in the Public Parks / Open Space and Public / Semi-
Public categories. The Low Density Residential category encourages
the openness and rural character of the City of Southlake.
Mobility & Master Thoroughfare Plan
Shady Ln. is a local street with 50’ of right of way. Adequate right of way
is shown to be dedicated on the plat.
Pathways Master Plan & Sidewalk Plan
The Master Pathways Plan does not include a recommendation for
sidewalks or trails on Shady Ln. Sidewalks in compliance with the
Subdivision Ordinance No. 483, as amended, are required with a Plat
Revision. Construction of a 5’ sidewalk along Shady Ln. for each lot will
be required at the time of construction of a new home on the lot.
TRANSPORTATION
ASSESSMENT: Two residential driveways exist on Shady Ln., which is a local street. No
changes are proposed.
TREE PRESERVATION: A Tree Conservation Plan is required to be submitted with the submittal
of a Plat Revision. No changes to the existing residences or other
structures are proposed. Prior to any future demolition or construction, a
Tree Conservation Plan complying to Section 7.2, within the Tree
Preservation Ordinance 585-E must be submitted.
UTILITIES: An 8” water line and a 10” sewer line exist in Shady Ln. to serve the lots.
DRAINAGE: The drainage is generally sheet flow from east to west across the
properties to a creek that runs across the western portion of the
property.

GENERAL COMMENTS:
No comments based on submitted information.
Case No. Attachment C
ZA19-0050 Page 3
============ The following should be informational comments only ====================
* Although the proposed north property line of Lot 12R2 is not perpendicular to the right of way,
the existing tract boundary is not being revised and the lot is not being further subdivided, so
the lot appears to meet the intent of this requirement.
* It appears that a portion of this property lies within the 65 'LDN D/FW Regional Airport Overlay
Zone, requiring construction standards in compliance with the Airport Compatible Land Use
Zoning Ordinance No. 479. Additionally, the Avigation Easement and Release shown in
Appendix 3 of the Subdivision Ordinance No. 483 should be executed on subsequent Plats to
be filed in the County Plat Records.
* All plats filed must have an original signed and stamped Tax Certificate submitted with it from
each taxing unit with jurisdiction of the real property, indicating that no delinquent taxes are
owed and that taxes for the current year have been paid. After September 1st, a certificate
showing that the taxes for that year are paid, but that the taxes for the upcoming year have yet
to be calculated is required. (House Bills 1563 & 3101). A copy of this information may be
obtained from the Tarrant County Tax Assessor/Collector’s Office located at 100 E.
Weatherford St. in Ft. Worth (across from the old red courthouse). There is a service charge of
$10 per account for this certificate. For more information contact the Assessor/Collector’s
office at 817-212-6847.
* Please submit a revised pdf "check print" prior to submitting the blackline mylar and paper
copy with original signatures.
* For Tarrant County filing, original signatures and seals will be required on one blackline mylar
and one blackline paper copy prior to filing the plat. The mylar and paper copies will not be
accepted if any erasures or original ink, other than signatures or seals, appear on the plat.
* All development must comply with the Drainage Ordinance No. 605 and the Erosion and
Sediment Control Ordinance No. 946, as amended.
* The current address for the Flowage Easement note on the plat is below:
