7 AGENDA ITEM #5, ZA00-084, REZONING AND CONCEPT PLAN FOR EMERALD ESTATES
8 SOUTH:
9 Senior Planner Ken Baker presented this item to the Commission for a Rezoning and Concept Plan
10 for Emerald Estates South on property described as Lot 2, Block 1, Emerald Estates South. The
11 property is located on the north side of East Dove Street approximately 120' east of North Carroll
12 Avenue. The Current Zoning is "AG" Agricultural District, and the Requested Zoning is "SF-20A"
13 Single Family Residential District. The Land Use Category is Medium Density Residential. The
14 Owner is Frank S. Shelby, and the Applicant is Allegheny Land Company. 29 written notices were
15 sent to property owners within the 200' notification area, and three responses were received with two
16 being undecided and one being opposed.
17
18 Art Clayton, 3129 Lake Drive, Southlake, Texas, presented this item to the Commission and
19 reviewed the requested variances with them.
20
21 Commissioner Horne asked if there will be a wall along Dove Street. Mr. Clayton said he does not
22 know if they are going to put up a wall or columns with wrought iron.
23
24 Commissioner Terrell said he understands that this little strip of land is shown on the Land Use Plan
25 as Medium Density Residential but almost all the residential north of S.H. 114 has been planned for
26 one acre. He is concerned this is going to “SF-20” instead of “SF-30”. He said Lots 2, 3, and 7 are
27 fairly small lots and asked if Mr. Clayton has given consideration to combining Lots 2 and 3. Mr.
28 Clayton said no; it would not work economically.
29
30 Commissioner Horne asked if this addition will be similar to Evergreen Estates. Mr. Clayton said
31 this will be a little more high end. He said they started at a minimum of $400,000 there, and they will
32 probably start with a minimum of $450,000 here with a minimum house size of 4,000 s.f.
33
34 Commissioner Jones asked if Mr. Clayton has studied what traffic impact this will have as far as
35 people trying to get out of their driveways onto Dove Street. Mr. Clayton said they have committed
36 to putting in porte cochere type entries and motor court areas for turning around before coming out
37 onto Dove Street.
38
39 Chairman King opened the Public Hearing.
40
41 Mario Molina, 1481 E. Dove, Southlake, Texas, said he has three objections: water flow, traffic flow,
42 and lot sizes. He said the houses across the street are 40’ to 50’ off the road, and these houses will be
43 right on the road.
44
45 Kenneth Mason, 1351 Emerald Circle, Southlake, Texas, said they have a large pond that sits on the
2
Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting Minutes on November 9, 2000
1 back of their property which they really enjoy. He said they plan on doing some landscaping around
2 it next year and will use it for irrigation. He questioned how the proposed changes will impact his
3 property. He said he is not real sure what their proposal is for drainage.
4
5 Clair McKean, 1301 Emerald Circle, Southlake, Texas, said he does not know whether he is in favor
6 of this or against it at this point; he would like to know a little more about it. He stated his concern
7 about the trees. He said for the applicant to protect trees along Dove Street would mean taking them
8 away on his side; he cannot see substituting the trees on Dove Street for his trees. He also stated his
9 concern about the drainage and said it isn’t real good as it is. He would like to see some more work
10 done on fewer houses and would like to get the drainage up front instead of in the back.
11
12 Barney Roger, 1201 Emerald Circle, Southlake, Texas, said he put together some exhibits on
13 transparencies which show his house to scale along with the proposed development. He said he
14 wanted to see how his 3,000 s.f. house and pool would fit onto one of the new lots. He said it would
15 be difficult getting his house and pool to fit onto the lots without getting into the easements, etc. He
16 said there is not enough room to build houses on some of these lots. He said he has had standing
17 water up to the concrete edge of his pool area because there are drainage problems along the south
18 end of his property. He wants to build a workshop back there, but there is too much standing water.
19
20 Chairman King left the Public Hearing open.
21
22 (Planning and Zoning Commission meeting, 11-09-00, tape 1, section #1334)
23
24 Chairman King asked staff about the drainage problem this area seems to have. Graduate Engineer
25 Angela Turner said it is very possible that the easement north of Lots 12 and 13 needs some
26 improvement; it is a pretty flat area. She said the majority of these lots will have to drain to the rear.
27 She said the ditches along Dove Street will not hold all the water coming from Carroll Avenue so it
28 spreads out across these lots. She said they would have to make some drainage improvements along
29 Dove Street as part of this project, and staff would also need to look at the back area in more detail.
30 She said the best solution would be a storm sewer in the back with an inlet for each of these lots.
31
32 Commissioner Jones asked how many other subdivisions in this area are zoned similar to this
33 request. Director Bruce Payne said he does not believe there are any. He said the interesting thing
34 on the Land Use Plan is that almost this exact piece of land was held out for Medium Density
35 Residential when they approved the current Land Use Plan. He presumes the reason this piece of
36 land was held out was because of its peculiar shape and that maybe City Council presumed it would
37 take smaller than usual lots to make this economically feasible.
38
39 Commissioner Terrell asked if both zoning districts, “SF-20” and “SF-30”, are considered to be
40 Medium Density Residential. Director Payne said yes.
41
42 Commissioner Terrell said “SF-30” is still classified as Medium Density Residential, but it requires
43 a minimum of 30,000 s.f. instead of 20,000 s.f. He agrees that the depth of the lots off of Dove Street
44 would prove to be impractical to make them one acre, but he thinks 30,000 s.f. would work. His
45 concern is only Lots 2, 3, and 7.

1
2 Commissioner Jones said this looks awfully crammed together. He said he knows this builder builds
3 a nice home; that is not a question. He said to go from minimum one acre tracts and then to go to
4 something that looks crammed together is a little bit concerning to him. Another concern he has is
5 having the driveways right on a main road. He also said he would be more interested in having the
6 utilities on Dove Street and sacrificing whatever nature has to be sacrificed up there versus having
7 trees removed in the back which serve as a natural buffer zone.
8
9 Commissioner Terrell said he would like to see how many trees will be affected and what size and
10 type those trees are. He said it may very well be that some of the larger trees will not be damaged in
11 the placement of the utilities in the back.
12
13 Commissioner Horne agreed with what has been said about Lots 2, 3, and 7, but he is just trying to
14 figure out how he would access all the lots if any changes were made.
15
16 Mr. Clayton said they have been working on this project for two years and when he gave a quick
17 answer earlier regarding combining Lots 2 and 3, it was a two-year answer that happened to come
18 out quickly. He said there are several issues with this piece of property with one being a very large
19 60’ utility easement that runs along the back of the properties. He said he wants to put the drainage
20 in the back in some type of a tubing system; he thinks they can improve the drainage. He said we
21 should not change the natural flow of drainage; we should go with the natural flow. He said they are
22 not going to do something that Angela Turner and Charlie Thomas do not approve of. He said if the
23 Commission wants him to tear down all the trees along Dove Street and improve that road, then that
24 is the Commission’s direction to him to do that; he thinks they can go in the back and minimize the
25 effect.
26
27 Commissioner Terrell asked Mr. Clayton if he has considered reconfiguring all of the lots on
28 Emerald Court so that they all are 30,000 s.f. minimum. Mr. Clayton said he has considered that but
29 cannot do it and still meet the 100’ width requirement on the lots.
30
31 Commissioner Jones asked staff if he could ask for a variance to the 100’ width requirement.
32 Director Payne said yes.
33
34 Mr. Clayton said if he does not have to lose a lot and could work something out, he would be more
35 than pleased to try to adjust the lot sizes a little particularly if he gets the variance on the 6’ for the
36 pedestrian easement; that would really help him and give him more square footage.
37
38 Commissioner Terrell said he has no problem with that.
39
40 Commissioner Terrell asked Mr. Clayton what he would need to accomplish the goal of 30,000 s.f.
41 lots on the west end of the property. Mr. Clayton said if he did not have to meet the 100’ lot width,
42 he could probably make it work.
43
44 Director Payne said if the applicant wants to and is comfortable with it, the Commission can change
45 his request to “SF-30” and the zoning action could move forward; staff could then deal with the plat
4
Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting Minutes on November 9, 2000
1 issues.
2
3 Mr. Clayton said he would like to offer up to the citizens to be involved in the engineering aspects of
4 this property. If he had their names, he could let them know when the engineering meetings will take
5 place, and they could sit in. He would have no problem with that at all.
6
7 Commissioner Horne said he is very happy with the 30,000 s.f. but asked Mr. Clayton to work with
8 the wrought iron fencing instead of a wall.
9
10 Barney Roger, 1201 Emerald Circle, Southlake, Texas, said his biggest concern is the fact that there
11 are very large trees right along the back property line; that affords the people north of this
12 development a great deal of privacy.
13
14 Ms. Turner said in all likelihood many of the trees in the back will come down whether there are
15 drainage structures or utility structures put in.
16
17 Mario Molina, 1481 E. Dove, Southlake, Texas, asked why, if everything around this is low density,
18 are we winding up with a little strip of land with cookie cutter houses in front.
19
20 Chairman King said he does not know why, but it is shown that way on the Land Use Plan.
21
22 F.C. LeVrier, 1515 E. Dove Road, Southlake, Texas, said he was on the P&Z Commission when the
23 Land Use Plan was updated. He said this particular area was one of the last areas they looked at;
24 there was not much that could be done with it other than what is being requested. He said this is an
25 instance, though, where the Commission must look at what is good for the whole neighborhood
26 rather than just the developer. If he understands correctly, there is a variance being requested on the
27 R.O.W. If that is the case, there is still a lot of undeveloped property along Dove Street and if that
28 variance is allowed, then he wants it on record that he wants the same thing on his property. He has a
29 bunch of cedar trees that will be affected by the required R.O.W. He said just about everybody up
30 and down the road has trees that are affected by the proposed future R.O.W. He said the Commission
31 is setting precedence here that he and his neighbors have the right to request the same variance, and
32 they had better get it.
33
34 Chairman King said the Commission is not setting precedence regarding the R.O.W. He said the
35 Commission has been here two hours tonight and has come to the conclusion that this is what needs
36 to be done for this property. He just wants to make that clear. He asked if Mr. LeVrier thinks this
37 zoning request should be denied.
38
39 Mr. LeVrier said he feels the zoning request and the residential use is good for the property but said
40 the density needs to be looked at. He thinks the change to “SF-30” is a very legitimate request but
41 thinks that every lot needs to be a minimum of that. He asked for the Commission to remember they
42 are setting precedence for future P&Z Commissions and City Councils.
43
44 Chairman King said Mr. LeVrier said himself this was one of the last pieces of property dealt with
45 on the Land Use Plan because of its configuration; that in and of itself makes it clear it is a unique
5
Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting Minutes on November 9, 2000
1 piece of property. Because it is unique and because of the drainage issues and because of the trees in
2 the front and in the back, he said it may be determined that it will receive a variance to the R.O.W.
3 requirement.
4
5 Commissioner Terrell asked if the trail behind the trees will be sidewalk. Mr. Clayton said yes; it
6 will be a 6’ sidewalk.
7
8 Chairman King closed the Public Hearing.
9
10 (Planning and Zoning Commission meeting, 11-09-00, tape 1, section #3400)
11
12 Mr. Clayton said he consents to the “SF-30” zoning with the 6’ pedestrian easement and the change
13 to the 100’ lot width requirement which would be a variance on those cul-de-sac lots.
14
15 Commissioner Horne asked Mr. Clayton when he intends to have the meeting with the residents. Mr.
16 Clayton said once his engineer completes the plan, he thinks the residents should be notified to come
17 to the meeting where his engineer works with Angela Turner or Charlie Thomas.
18
19 Chairman King suggested having a designated representative instead of having to notify everyone.
20 Barney Roger agreed to be the neighborhood representative.
21
22 Motion was made to approve ZA00-084 subject to Concept Plan Review Summary No. 4, dated
23 November 3, 2000, and subject to the following:
24 To allow the change to “SF-30” zoning;
25 To allow the variance to R.O.W. on East Dove Street providing 6’ pedestrian access easement;
26 To allow the variance to the 100’ lot width requirement with the minimum being 75’;
27 To accept the applicant’s commitment to work with the surrounding residents on drainage and to
28 maintain as many trees as possible and to insure that the canopy remains on Dove Street.

13 AGENDA ITEM #7, ZA00-109, SITE PLAN FOR BURGER KING:
14 Senior Planner Ken Baker presented this item to the Commission for a Site Plan for Burger King on
15 property described as Lot 3, Block 1, Kimball/1709 Addition, being 1.114 acres. The property is
16 located on the east side of North Kimball Avenue between F.M. 1709 and S.H. 114. The Current
17 Zoning is "C-3" General Commercial District. The Land Use Category is Retail Commercial. The
18 Owner is Burger King Corporation, and the Applicant is Wainscott & Associates. Five written
19 notices were sent to property owners within the 200' notification area, and no responses were
20 received. One response in favor was received from outside the 200' notification area.
21
22 Mike Ortega (Construction Manager with Burger King Corporation) and Bob Drury (Development
23 Manager with Burger King Corporation) presented this item to the Commission and reviewed the
24 requested variances with them.
25
26 Chairman King asked if the applicant owns this property. Mr. Drury said they have a signed ground
27 lease agreement with the owner, Dick LeBlanc, who also owns the properties to the north and to the
28 south of them.
29
30 Commissioner Horne asked what the color scheme will be. Mr. Drury said it will blend in with the
31 existing structures such as the Taco Bell and the Lowe’s. He said that is required under their lease
32 agreement.
33
34 Mr. Ortega said the roof will not be metal; it will be a shingled roof. It will most likely be a tan or a
35 gray to blend in with the area. He said the building itself is a crème color.
36
37 Chairman King opened the Public Hearing. No one in the audience stepped forward to speak.
38 Chairman King closed the Public Hearing.

12 AGENDA ITEM #8, ZA00-110, SITE PLAN FOR LOT 3, BLOCK B, NORTH DAVIS BUSINESS
13 PARK:
14 Senior Planner Ken Baker presented this item to the Commission for a Site Plan for Lot 3, Block B,
15 North Davis Business Park on property described as Lot 3, Block B, North Davis Business Park,
16 being 1.0 acre. The property is located on the northwest corner of the intersection of Greenwood
17 Drive and Greenbriar Drive. The Current Zoning is "I-1" Light Industrial District. The Land Use
18 Category is Industrial. The Owner and Applicant is SLJ Exchange. Seven written notices were sent
19 to property owners within the 200' notification area, and no responses were received.
20
21 John Dorety (SLJ Exchange) presented this item to the Commission and reviewed the requested
22 variances with them.
23
24 Commissioner Jones asked if the articulation on the residential side of this building will be similar to
25 Mr. Dorety’s existing building. Mr. Dorety said yes. Mr. Dorety said they have two other buildings
26 exactly alike within 300’ of the proposed building. He said they are trying to pull in a concept that
27 they all look alike, and that it is all the same product.
28
29 Chairman King asked if this building will be mainly office or mainly warehouse. Mr. Dorety said
30 they became flex before anyone knew what flex was. He said it is primarily distribution. He said his
31 building at 2100 Greenwood Drive has an electronic assembly tenant, and the building at 2050
32 Greenwood Drive is half a church and half an aircraft cabinet manufacturer. He said there are no big
33 trucks involved.
34
35 Chairman King opened the Public Hearing. No one in the audience stepped forward to speak.
36 Chairman King closed the Public Hearing.

12 described as Tracts 3 & 3F and a portion of Tract 4C, Rees D. Price Survey, Abstract No. 1207, and
13 being 30.138 acres. The property is located on the east side of North White Chapel Boulevard
14 approximately 700' north of Sweet Street. The Current Zoning is "AG" Agricultural District and "S-

44 Hill on property described as Tracts 3, 3F, & 4C, Rees D. Price Survey, Abstract No. 1207, and
45 being approximately 44.0 acres. The property is located on the east side of North White Chapel

1 Boulevard approximately 700' north of Sweet Street. The Owners of the property are Four Peaks
2 Development and Lions Club of Dallas (Park Cities). The Applicant is Four Peaks Development.
3 The Current Zoning is "AG" Agricultural District, and "S-P-2" Generalized Site Plan District for
4 tropical fish distribution and related ancillary uses. The Land Use Category is Low Density
5 Residential, and 65 LDN Overlay Corridor. 15 written notices were sent to property owners within
6 the 200' notification area, and no responses were received. One response in opposition was received
7 from outside the 200' notification area.
8
9 David McMahan (Four Peaks Development) 1335 Hidden Glen, Southlake, Texas, presented this
10 item to the Commission and reviewed the requested variances with them.
11
12 Commissioner Terrell noted that the building lines are not shown on the plat for Lot 4, Block 3, and
13 Lot 17, Block 1. Mr. McMahan said he is sorry they are not shown and said he is still asking for a
14 variance on that item. Commissioner Terrell said the Commission would need to approve that
15 variance subject to those lines being shown on the plat.
16
17 Commissioner Horne asked what Mr. McMahan intends to do along White Chapel Boulevard. Mr.
18 McMahan said he really does not know yet what he is going to do. He said they are trying to get a
19 meeting with the utility company about the existing power line; they do not know what they can put
20 underneath it. He said a portion of the frontage is very heavily treed. He does not know if they will
21 do brick columns with wrought iron or brick columns with wood. He said they would probably do
22 something that is compatible with Kirkwood Hollow’s fencing across the street. He said they may do
23 a berm on the southern portion where there are not many trees, but he does not yet know what he can
24 do under the power lines.
25
26 Commissioner Horne said his main concern is having walls on both sides of the road which would
27 give the appearance of a tunnel. Mr. McMahan said he understands and does not want that either. He
28 said they have to have an attractive entrance and an attractive subdivision in order to market their
29 lots.
30
31 Commissioner Jones asked what the value of these homes will be. Mr. McMahan said since he does
32 not build the homes, he does not have any control over that. He said they have the lots on the market
33 at an average of $165,000 per lot. He said if the rule of thumb of five times the lot price applies then
34 the price of the homes will be around $800,000 to $1,000,000.
35
36 Chairman King opened the Public Hearing. No one in the audience stepped forward to speak.
