PROJECT: Site Plan for SiteOne Landscape Supply
EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY: Contineo Group, on behalf of SiteOne Landscape Supply, is requesting approval of a
Site Plan for SiteOne Landscape Supply, an 8,500 square foot one story building on
property being described as Lots 2AR & 2BR, Brumlow Industrial District, an addition
to the City of Southlake, Tarrant County, Texas located at 1635 Brumlow Avenue,
Southlake Texas. Current Zoning: "I-1" Light Industrial District. SPIN Neighborhood
#8.
DETAILS: The property is located on the east side of Brumlow Avenue, approximately 1,400 feet
north of the intersection with Ira E Woods Avenue (HWY 26).
The applicant is proposing the development of an 8,500 square foot one story
landscape supply building. The proposed development is on a roughly 1-acre portion
of the overall 3.8 acre site. The new structure will access Brumlow Ave. through a
private access easement on an adjacent property at 1675 Brumlow Ave.
The site will have a combination of a building and outdoor storage related to the
primary landscaping company. SiteOne sells landscape products primarily for
contractors or professionals at wholesale. Most sales occur online, however a minor
portion of the floor area (5%) will be used for retail purposes and on-site sales and
transactions for both contractors and incidental visits from the public. Parking is
calculated for primarily warehouse uses, although additional parking was provided for
those visiting the site. Two loading spaces at the rear of the property count toward the
overall 14 required spaces.
At their June 8, 2023 meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended
approval (6-0) subject to Staff Report dated June 2, 2023 and Plan Review Summary
No. 3, dated May 23, 2023, approving the two variances requested, and
recommending that the applicant meet with staff to discuss the best method of
providing a sidewalk for the site.
Since the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting, the applicant has expressed a
preference to escrow funds for a future sidewalk on the site, rather than construct one
at this time given the shape of the lot, and the lack of adjoining pathways on the east
side of Brumlow Ave.
Variances Requested:
Case No.
ZA23-0016

as amended, Section 5.1, requiring centerline spacing of driveways along

driveways currently spaced at approximately 55’.

Fire Department Review
The required backflow protection (double check valve) for the sprinkler systems can be located on
the riser if the riser is within 100 feet of the water main, measured linearly along the length of the
pipe. If the riser is further than 100 feet from the main, the double check valve shall be in a vault.
Riser rooms shall be a minimum of 5’X5’ if the double check is located in a vault, or a minimum
of 6’X6’ if it is located on the riser. (Label riser room locations to determine termination point of
riser piping, and indicate size of the riser rooms)
The Fire Department Connection for the sprinkler system must be within 100 feet of a fire
hydrant, and within 50 feet of fire department fire lanes on the property. (FDC location not
indicated on the plans) Add FDC location, wall mount or remote connection to meet the distance
requirements or add a fire hydrant. (Also, the FDC buildings must be within 50 feet of fire lane
access)
FIRE LANE COMMENTS:
Fire apparatus access needs to be an all-weather surface, asphalt or concrete, 24 feet wide and able
to support the imposed loads of fire apparatus. (Minimum of 85,000 pounds GVW). (No fire lanes

General Informational Comments
* No review of proposed signs is intended with this site plan. A separate building permit is required
prior to construction of any signs.
* All mechanical equipment must be screened of view from right-of-ways and residential properties in
accordance with the Zoning Ordinance No. 480, as amended.
* All lighting must comply with the Lighting Ordinance No. 693, as amended.
* All development must comply with the Drainage Ordinance No. 605 and the Erosion and Sediment
Control Ordinance No. 946, as amended.
* The Masonry Ord. No. 557, as amended, and Ordinance 480, as amended, Section 43.19(d) would
require masonry materials on non-residential building facades visible from the right-of-way within “I-1”
Light Industrial Districts. House Bill 2439 of the 86th Texas Legislature pre-empts the enforcement of
this requirement.
* In addition to the City of Southlake impact fees, please be aware that through the wholesale water
customer contract with the City of Fort Worth, all new water connections are required to pay the City
of Fort Worth impact fee. The City of Fort Worth impact fee assessment is based on the final plat
recordation date and building permit issuance. The applicant is encouraged to review the City of Fort
Worth's assessment and collection of Impact Fees Guide to determine the fee amount.
* An On-Site Sanitary Sewer system may be necessary for this building, as access to sewer is not
readily apparent. Such a system is subject to approval by Tarrant County Health. The applicant
currently proposes connecting to a future sewer line to be constructed in tandem with the City of
Southlake Municipal Service Center.
