PROJECT: Plat Revision for Lot 1R2, R.P. Estes Subdivision
EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY: Ajitpal Singh Toor, RTF & Sons CStore, LLC., Owner is requesting approval of
a Plat Revision for Lot 1R2, R.P. Estes Subdivision, an addition to the City of
Southlake, Tarrant County, Texas, and located at 974 W Dove Road,
Southlake, Texas. Current Zoning: “AG” Agricultural District. SPIN
Neighborhood #5.
DETAILS: The property is located on the north side of W. Dove Road, approximately 240
feet northwest of the intersection of W Dove Road and Amelia Island Path.
The purpose of this request is approval of a plat revision for the remainder of a
lot known originally as Lot 1, R.P. Estes Subdivision. The western portion of the
lot was platted in 2007.
The R.P Estes Addition was platted under County jurisdiction and originally
contained 5 large lots of approximately 10 acres each. Prior to the annexation of
this area into the City of Southlake, these lots were subdivided into several tracts
by metes and bounds without filing a revised plat. Now that these properties are
under City jurisdiction and is part of a plat of record, a plat revision is required
prior to issuance of a building permit for new construction.
ACTION NEEDED: Hold a Public Hearing
Consider the Plat Revision

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.
