Revision for Lot 9R, Block B, Lakewood Ridge Addition, on property described
as Lots 9 and 13, Block B, Lakewood Ridge Addition, an addition to the City of
Southlake, Denton County, Texas and located at 4488 Soda Ridge Rd. and
4489 N. White Chapel Blvd., Southlake, Texas. Current Zoning: “SF-1A” Single
Family Residential District. SPIN Neighborhood #1.
DETAILS: The purpose of this request is to combine Lots 9 and 13, Block B, Lakewood
Ridge Addition into one platted residential lot. Lot 13 is shown with a well site
on the plat for Lakewood Ridge Addition. The combined areas of the existing
lots is approximately 1.585 acres. The owner of the two lots wants to construct

Addition. The lots must be combined prior to construction of the accessory
building since an accessory use requires that there be a principal use and the
building must be on the same lot as a principal building per Zoning Ordinance

ACTION NEEDED: 1) Conduct a public hearing
2) Consider approval of a Plat Revision

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
OWNER: Trevor Stitt
APPLICANT: Dean Surveyors
PROPERTY SITUATION: 4488 Soda Ridge Rd. and 4489 N. White Chapel Blvd.
LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Lots 9 and 13, Block B, Lakewood Ridge Addition
LAND USE CATEGORY: Low Density Residential
CURRENT ZONING: “SF-1A” – Agricultural District
HISTORY: The following is the history of the property to the best of our knowledge
and belief:
- A plat for Lakewood Ridge Addition was filed in 1977.
- The property was annexed into the City in 1988 and given the “SF-1”
Single Family Residential District zoning designation.
- The existing home on the property was built in 1988 (Source: DCAD).
- The property was given the “SF-1A” Single Family Residential District
zoning designation with the adoption of Ord. No. 480 September 5,
1989.
SOUTHLAKE 2035 PLAN: Consolidated Future Land Use Plan
The 2035 future land use designation for the site is “Low Density
Residential”. The lot as proposed complies with this designation.
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
The Master Thoroughfare Plan shows N. White Chapel Blvd. as a two-
lane undivided collector with 70’ of right of way. Soda Ridge Rd. is a
local residential street.
Pathways Master Plan & Sidewalk Plan
The Master Pathways Plan shows a future hiking/equestrian trail along
the east side of N. White Chapel Blvd. and a ≤8’ future sidewalk along
the west side.

ZA21-0001 Page 2
TRANSPORTATION
ASSESSMENT: A residential driveway exists on Soda Ridge Rd. to serve the principal
residence. A pond divides the property, so accessing the portion of the
property that abuts N. White Chapel Blvd. will require a driveway from
that street. Public Works has approved a driveway connection onto N.
White Chapel Blvd. subject to compliance with the driveway spacing
requirements.
TREE PRESERVATION: Any new development must comply with the requirements of the Tree
Preservation Ordinance.
UTILITIES: A 12” water line exists in N. White Chapel Blvd. and an 8” water line
exists in Soda Ridge Rd. to serve the property. City sewer is not
available to the property. The existing home uses a septic system.
DRAINAGE: An existing pond divides the property. Drainage from the east and west
portions of the property is to the pond.
CITIZEN INPUT/
BOARD REVIEW: A SPIN meeting was not held for this project.
STAFF COMMENTS: Attached is Plat Review Summary No. 1, dated January 29, 2021.
