PROJECT: Specific Use Permit for a Residential Solar Energy System
1211 Timber Court
EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY: Freedom Solar Power, on behalf of the owner Tyler Gates, is requesting approval
of a Specific Use Permit for a Residential Solar Energy System on property
described as Lot 2, Block 2, Continental Park Estates Addition , City of Southlake,
Tarrant County, Texas and located at 1211 Timber Court, Southlake, Texas.
Current Zoning: “SF-1A” Single Family Residential District. SPIN Neighborhood
#10.
DETAILS: The applicant is requesting approval to install a residential solar energy system to
be located generally on two (2) south rear roof areas of the house and south roof
of the detached garage. The proposed solar array for the house and detached
garage consists of 57 solar energy panels (each panel is approximately 41.2” by
61.3”) totaling approximately 1,000 square feet (684 square feet on the house and
316 square feet on the detached garage). The proposed system produces 18 kW.
Additional information may be found in the specific use permit plans.
ACTION NEEDED: 1) Conduct a Public Hearing
2) Consider Specific Use Permit Request for a Residential Solar Energy
System

45.5 FACTORS TO BE CONSIDERED - In granting or denying an
application for a specific use permit, the City Council shall take into
consideration the following factors:
a. Safety of the motoring public and of pedestrians using the
facility and the area immediately surrounding the site.
b. Safety from fire hazard, and measures for fire control.
c. Protection of adjacent property from flood or water damage.
d. Noise producing elements; and glare of vehicular and
stationary lights and effect of such lights on established
character of the neighborhood.
e. Location, lighting and type of signs; and relation of signs to
traffic control and adverse effect on adjacent properties.
f. Street size and adequacy of pavement width for traffic and
reasonably expected to be generated by the proposed use
around the site and in the immediate neighborhood.
g. Adequacy of parking, as determine d by requirements of this
Case No. Attachment A
ZA21-0012 Page 2
chapter for off-street parking facilities for similar uses;
location of ingress and egress points for parking and off-
street loading spaces; and protection of the public health by
all-weather surfacing on all parking areas to control dust.
h. Such other measures as will secure and protect the public
health, safety, morals and general welfare.
i. City Council may grant variances to specific regulations
associated with a specific use set forth in Sections 45. To
receive a variance, the applicant must demonstrate one of
the following (As amended by Ordinance No. 480-MMMM):
(a) A variance will reduce the impact of the project on
surrounding residential properties; or
(b) Compliance with this ordinance would impair the
architectural design or creativity of the project; or
(c) A variance is necessary to assure compatibility with
surrounding developed properties; or
(d) The proposed construction is an addition to an existing
project that does not meet the requirements of this
ordinance.
