PROPERTY SITUATION: 2102 E. SH 114, Southlake, Texas
LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Lot 2R, Kimball Park
STRATEGIC LINK: C4 — Attract & keep top -tier businesses to drive a dynamic &
sustainable economic environment
SIGN HISTORY: September 5, 2017; City Council approved an upper story attached
sign for Keller Williams on the 4th floor on the south elevation not
congruent with the lease space. (SV17-010)
September 5, 2017; City Council approved sign variances for two
monument signs and noting the following: the approval of two
alternate monument signs as presented and granting the following
variances: SH 114 monument sign: allowing the sign to be located
approximately 2 feet from the property line and noting that property
is approximately 30' from the SH 114 frontage road curb; allowing
14 panels on the sign, including Cambria and The Offices; and
allowing the property address to be at the bottom of the sign
structure; the Kimball Avenue sign: allowing the sign height to be 7
feet 6 inches; allowing the sign face height to be 5 feet; allowing 14
panels on the sign, again including the words Cambria and The
Offices; and allowing the property address to be at the bottom of the
sign structure. Also noting, the Cambria lettering on both sets of
signs will be yellow and the panels below the Cambria panel will be
white or silver lettering; noting the Kimball Park lettering will be in
metallic or silver lettering, and the lettering below Kimball Park
panel will be in their [corporate] font with no logos and be of silver,
metallic, or white colors only. Also noting, on the left side, under the
Cambria lettering, tenants will be able to put a logo with their
[corporate] name. (SV17-011)
March 3, 2020; Approved a sign variance to allow an upper story
attached building sign for C.H. Robinson to be located on a wall that
is not entirely congruent with the tenant's lease space and to allow
larger than permitted letter and logo heights limiting the logo height
to 48-inches. (SV20-0002)
May 17, 2022: City Council approved a sign variance for Starbucks
to allow 2 attached illuminated signs on the south elevation (Signs
A and E), allow a logo larger than permitted on the south and east
elevations (Signs A and B), allow an illuminated window sign (Sign
C), and allow an attached logo sign on a wall not congruent with the
lease space and located on a masonry wall (fence) facing north
(Sign F). (SV22-0005)
SIGN BOARD: August 4, 2022; Approved (7-0) subject to the Staff Report dated
August 3, 2022; and noting that Item No. D-8, in the sign package,
Case No. Attachment A
MSP21-0006 Page 1
that approval is modified to reflect the applicant's desire to change
the Trinity Investor sign to 55 ft. (width) and 148 sq. ft. (area); and
also noting with respect to Sign D-15, the parking garage
directional sign, the applicant will change the wording on that,
based on a mistake that was included in the packet.
STAFF COMMENTS: City Council approval of the proposed plan does not eliminate the
requirement for appropriate sign application submittals prior to
installation of signs. Please contact Seantay Carpenter at 817-748-
8215 or scarpenter(o�ci.south Iake.tx.us for sign application
processing and pre -install inspections.
