accordance with the percentage requirements established by Table 2.0. If the property has previously
received a tree permit related to development, the percentage of existing tree cover at the time the
first such permit was issued shall be used to calculate the minimum existing tree cover that must be
preserved under this section.
Table 2.0 – Existing Tree Cover Preservation Requirements
Percentage of existing tree cover on the entire site Minimum percentage of the existing tree cover to
be preserved*
0% – 20% 70%

60.1% - 80% 40%
Case No. Attachment C
ZA23-0034 Page 3
80.1% - 100% 30%
*The minimum percentage of existing tree cover to be preserved shall exclude any area in public
rights-of-way as approved by City Council.
* Please be aware that all existing trees shown to be preserved on the City Council approved
Tree Conservation Plan must be preserved and protected during all phases and construction of the
development. Alteration or removal of any of the existing trees shown to be preserved on the
approved Tree Conservation Plan is a violation of the Tree Preservation Ordinance and the zoning as
approved by the Southlake City Council. Please ensure that the layout of all structures, easements,
utilities, structures grading, and any other structure proposed to be constructed do not conflict with
existing trees intended to be preserved.
