June 1:9, 2007 City of Southlake Attm Ken Baker, Planning & DevelopmentServices Director 1400 Main Street Southlake, Texas 76092 RE; Zoning Case No. ZA07-052 Mr. Baker,; Per your request, we have modified Exhibit B' - Concept Plan for the -Southlake Regional Medical Center project to reflect the conditions contained within the Planning & Zoning Commission's unanimous recommendation for approval of Zoning Case No. ZA0.7-052' as well as the comments included within Concept Plan Review Summary No. 2. These modifications include: • Eliminating parking along the southwest half of the property along Highland Street • Eliminating three parking spaces adjacent to SH 114 entrances • Limiting the height of buildings located near the southwest corner of the property to three stories • Limiting the height of the building located near the northwest comer of the property to four stories Additionally, we have revised Exhibit C; the development regulations,. and Exhibit D, the design guidelines, (both of which are attached) to reflect the Planning & Zoning Commission's: motion. The revisions have been redlined for your convenience. Please note that the condition relating to the architectural design guidelines states "the applicant will have the option of complying with the Concept Plan with the paragraphs included therein or complying with the SH 114 Corridor Overlay requirements" as we feel this language reflects the discussion Ihat occurred at the Planning & Zoning Commission meeting. We are also requesting that the evergreen shrubs to be planted.along Highland Street be planted on five-foot centers rather than 36-inch centers, because we expect a shrub of eight feet in height to be five feet in width; not 36 inches in width. Finally, we have updated the exhibit of the Highland Street buffer to incorporate the evergreen shrubs stipulated by the Planning & Zoning Commission and more accurately depicting the existing vegetation along Highland Street. 5400 DAugfi: RkRKWAY • Fmsco, TX • 75034 P 214.618.3800 F 214.618.3830 landplandev.com Once again, we appreciate. the City's continued support of the Southlake Regional Medical Center project.

I am the property owner of nine acres located at 411 East Highland Street - directly across the street from the proposed new hospital. Thank you, respected members of the Southlake City Council, for letting me speak and hearing my concerns this evening. I am here tonight in support of the new hospital project and state that I agree with the land use plan. At this time, I would like to present three important requests: • Under the current proposal for the new hospital, my property will be facing a six story building along with unfinished construction and uncompleted buffer yard. It is not unreasonable to ask for the entire Highland Street frontage buffer yard to be finished before any occupancy of the new hospital. • I have agreed to allow one of the new hospital entrances to open onto my property. I understand that Highland Street will be developed into three lanes, i.e. two lanes with a center turning lane. I request that the entire length of hospital frontage on Highland Street should be completed before any occupancy of the new hospital is allowed. • At this time there is uncertainty as to when the entire project will be completed. I feel that it is not unreasonable to ask for some kind of phasing plan for the new project. I respectfully submit these for your consideration. Thank you again for your time this evening, Patrick G y P.O. Box 92481 • Southlake, Texas 76092 817-424-3694 Office • 817-424-2600 FAX 9 817-992-4950 Mobile 06-19-07 15:44 RCVD
