or Services on property described as Lot 1R, Block 1, White Chapel Methodist

Camp Gladiator is requesting approval for the renewal of three (3) Specific Use

at the White Chapel United Methodist Church (ZA20-0012), Hobby Lobby parking
lot in the Southlake Marketplace (ZA20-0011), and St. John’s Baptist Church
(ZA20-0013). Camp Gladiator is no longer using the previously approved Hills
Church location (ZA17-028). The details contained in this staff report relate to the
Specific Use Permit request for the White Chapel United Methodist Church
location. There is one change to the time period for training on Mondays; the
applicant is requesting to extend the time to 11:30 am. The boundary and
remaining details from the previously approved Specific Use Permit at this
location (ZA17-020) have not changed. The applicant is requesting a 5-year
approval period.
At the White Chapel United Methodist Church location, Camp Gladiator is
seeking approval of a Specific Use Permit to allow outdoor training at the
southeast parking lot of the White Chapel United Methodist Church located on
23.35 acres. The church is located on the southeast corner of the intersection of
S. White Chapel Blvd. and E. Southlake Blvd. Camp Gladiator will be using the
southeast parking lot site for multiple outdoor boot camps with a maximum of 30
participants at a session. Each camper will utilize one parking space and a
respective space within the parking lot during the workouts. The workout area
has been located in the southeast corner of the parking lot away from the main
flow of traffic in and around the church. This also minimizes any noise disruptions
to those inside the church.
