FORUM SUMMARY: Property Situation: The property is located at 351 Central Avenue Development Details: The applicant is proposing approval of a Site Plan and associated Plat Revision for Block 20 Lot 1, comprised of up to 58 Garden District Residences in two buildings on approximately 2.2 vacant acres. The property is located in the Garden District of Southlake Town Square south and west of Park Ridge Blvd, east of Central Ave. and north of Meeting St. (the "Property"). The Site Plan and supporting documents have been prepared in substantial conformance with the 2013 Concept Plan approval for the Garden District. Presentation: Questions and Concerns: 1. Concerned with the grandparent clause and the large number of children in the Carroll ISD, concerned with traffic and roads, concerned with infrastructure being able to handle the development, and concerned with the increase of delivery vehicles to the development. Response: Not legally able to restrict grandparent clause and pricing for each unit is high. Residents able to walk to services in the area and will reduce trips. Delivery traffic may not be as bad as other commercial traffic in the area. 2. Concerns with infrastructure and more residential development in the area. Response: The Town Square infrastructure was built to handle more than what is proposed. The power plant issue in not a local issue and is a statewide issue. 3. Concerns with drainage from Town Square to the north across SH 114 and N. Kimball Avenue and Paterson pond will be overloaded with water and silt (currently happening). Would support this development if a drainage study was conducted that would address the issue. Response: Resident to contact Frank Bliss to discuss the concerns.
