Questions for staff by the Committee:
N/A
Applicant Presentation: Vanessa Masell
Questions for Applicant by the Committee:
Kathy Talley: This is essentially a pick-up store and not go shop in store?
Applicant: It's both.
Kathy Talley: Do more people pick up or shop in?
Applicant: Its evenly split.
Kathy Talley: I’m assuming semi-trucks will make the deliveries?
Applicant: Correct.
Kathy Talley: Is the road behind the proposed store sufficient for that type of delivery?
Dennis Killough: Yes, it is a collector road.
Shawn McCaskill: Multiple proposals and ideas for this piece of property. This is
probably the best fit for that location. Work with city staff on building design, articulation,
and materials. I like the concept.
Amy Torres-Lepp: For some reason this is striking me as too big of a building for the
space, especially off Southlake Blvd. with semi-truck deliveries and traffic. I will want to
see a smaller footprint.
Kathy Talley: I have the same sentiment, but reducing parking might help. Talk with
staff about a tree variance.

Michael Springer: I have concerns with Southlake Blvd. access because that is a busy
intersection there. Especially around lunchtime with all the restaurants back in there. It’s
one way in and one way out, so you need to make sure you have adequate access in
other areas. Do you have plans to interconnect with the school next door?
Applicant: Yes, staff recommended a street connection from the east to west of our
property.
Austin Reynolds: You mentioned that the average building size is 80,000 sq. ft., so is
the 75,000 sq. ft. close to the 80,000?
Applicant: This is typically a smaller building footprint for us, but 75,000 sq. ft. will still
service our needs.
Austin Reynolds: Do you have smaller prototypes?
Applicant: We do that are more served for smaller markets that do not have a high
build forecast. The size of this building is based off our forecast for this area, which is
why we want to stay within the 75,000 sq. ft. range.
Amy Torres-Lepp: Dennis, how big is the store next door to PGA Superstore?
Applicant: I did some research today and it might be over 100,000 sq. ft. of floor space .
Austin Reynolds: Are you saying Marshalls and PGA Superstore together?
Applicant: Yes, with those two combined the footprint is over 100,000 sq. ft.
Dennis Killough: That might be close to correct.
Amy Torres-Lepp: Regarding the warehouse, as you go through the process we will
want details on hours for semi-trucks, especially during lunch time. Be prepared with
those answers and studies.
Applicant: Typically do overnight deliveries to keep trucks off busy roads during peak
hours. That is something we would look to propose.
Frances Scharli: The adjacent school creates a lot of traffic in the morning and around
3:00 PM. I would be sensitive to signage, especially in Southlake. The proposed
signage might not work.
