PROJECT: Zoning Change and Site Plan for Tommy’s Carwash
EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY: Tanner Brandt, Christianson Companies, is requesting approval of a Zoning
Change and Site Plan for Tommy’s Carwash located on a property described as
Lot 13, Block 3R of the Cimmarron Acres Addition, City of Southlake, Tarrant
County, Texas and located at 101 N Pearson Ln., Southlake, Texas. Current
Zoning: “C-2” Local Retail Zoning. Requested Zoning: “S-P-2” Generalized Site
Plan Zoning with “C-2” Local Retail Zoning District uses and a self-service car
wash. SPIN Neighborhood #11.
DETAILS: The property is located at the northeast corner of W. Southlake Boulevard and N.
Pearson Ln. A Concept Plan was approved (ZA05-104) proposing an 18,000
square-foot retail building.
The purpose of this request is to seek a zoning change and site plan approval for a
self-service car wash. The applicant is requesting approval of a “S-P-2”
Generalized Site Plan while maintaining “C-2” uses with self-service car wash
permitted by right. The operating hours will be 7am to 9pm, seven days a week. A
noise study was provided that shows the car wash would be within the ordinance
requirements with appropriate mitigation and 8’ masonry wall as proposed.
The 2.33-acre site is divided into two sections and combines a self-service
carwash with a conceptual future retail component. The eastern portion of the lot
is proposed for the self-service car wash, consisting of a 4,625 square-foot car
wash tunnel, 14 vacuum bays and 7 parking spaces. The western portion of the lot
is conceptually proposed to be an approximately 7,000 square-foot retail building,
with timing and construction uncertainty acknowledged by the applicant. The
western portion of the lot will require Site Plan approval at a future date.
The property will have two points of access for traffic circulation, including a
primary access point on W. Southlake Blvd, and one access point on N. Pearson
Lane. A variance for the driveway separation from Southlake Boulevard was
approved with ZA05-104.

APPLICANT: Tanner Brandt, Christianson Companies
OWNER: Pearson 1709 LTD
PROPERTY SITUATION: 101 N Pearson Lane, Southlake, TX 76092
LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Lot 13, Block 3R of the Cimarron Acres Addition
LAND USE CATEGORY: Retail Commercial
CURRENT ZONING: “C-2” Local Retail Commercial
PROPOSED ZONING: “S-P-2” Generalized Site Plan District
HISTORY: In July 1984, the City Council approved the final plat for Cimmarron Acres
Addition with Light and Heavy Commercial District while in the ETJ.
The subject property was annexed into the City of Southlake in August
1984 per Ordinance 297.

SOUTHLAKE
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: Consolidated Future Land Use Plan
The future land use designation for the site is Retail Commercial.
Purpose and Definition: The Retail Commercial category is a lower‐ to
medium‐intensity commercial category providing neighborhood‐type retail
shopping facilities and general commercial support activities. It is
intended to provide limited local retail and/or office uses which serve
neighborhoods in close proximity. It is intended that all uses in this
category will be compatible with adjacent single family uses, thereby
maintaining the character and integrity of existing neighborhoods. This
category is intended to encourage comprehensively planned
developments. In areas where the Retail Commercial designation is
adjacent to residentially zoned properties or areas with a residential
Case No. Attachment A
ZA23-0073 Page 2
designation on the Land Use Plan, lower intensity activities such as office
or office‐related uses should be planned adjacent to the residential
uses. Other suitable activities are those permitted in the Public
Parks/Open Space, Public/Semi‐Public, and Office Commercial categories
previously discussed.
Pathways Master Plan & Sidewalk Plan
The pathways plan calls for a <8 sidewalk along the Pearson Lane portion
of the property. An existing >8’ multi-use trail exists along the W. Southlake
Boulevard frontage.

Tree Conservation/Landscape Review
TREE CONSERVATION COMMENTS:
* The applicant is requesting a variance to the Tree Preservation Ordinance Existing Tree Cover
Preservation Requirements. If the development was proposed as traditional zoning the proposed
existing tree cover preservation would not comply with the Existing Tree Cover Preservation
Requirements of the Tree Preservation Ordinance. The 21% of existing tree cover that is proposed
to be preserved is within the western portion of the property which is a concept for future
development and would most likely be removed in the future.
There is 0.07% of existing tree cover on the property and a minimum of 70% is required to be
preserved. A maximum of 79% of the existing tree cover is proposed to be removed and 21% is
proposed to be preserved within the western proposed Concept Plan area. 100% is proposed to be
removed within the Site Plan area.
* Except as provided by subsection 7.2.b. of the Tree Preservation Ordinance, a Tree Conservation
Analysis or Tree Conservation Plan shall be approved if it will preserve existing tree cover in
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%
20.1 – 40% 60%
40.1% - 60% 50%
60.1% - 80% 40%
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.
For property sought to be zoned for the Downtown zoning district or a planned development
zoning district, including an S-P-1 Site Plan, S-P-2 Site Plan, Transition, Rural Conservation,
Planned Unit Development, or Employment Center zoning district, the City Council shall consider
the application for a Conservation Analysis or Plan in conjunction with the corresponding
development application (as established in Table 1.0). The Planning and Zoning Commission shall
review the application and make a recommendation to the City Council regarding the application.
The City Council shall approve the Plan or Analysis if the Council finds that the Plan or Analysis
provides for the:
i. placement of building pads, parking areas, driveways, streets, and utility easements so as to
Case No. Attachment C
ZA23-0073 Page 3
maximize the preservation of environmental features of the property including mature tree
stands, natural creeks and ponds, and significant grades;
ii. maximizes the preservation of tree cover preservation areas indicated on the Environmental
Resource Protection Map;
iii. maximizes the preservation of existing tree stands with the potential to buffer residential
areas from the noise, glare, and visual effects of nonresidential uses;
iv. maximizes the preservation of existing trees, if any, adjoining a natural or man-made
drainage creek;
v. maximizes the preservation of existing protected trees along rural roadways and other
streets as identified and prioritized in the Street Typology designation; and
vi. mitigation of altered trees through proposed tree replacement procedures pursuant to this
Ordinance.
* 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.
LANDSCAPE COMMENTS:
* There is a 20’ Utility Easement along the north property line which contain public utilities leading
into the City water tank facility. The required bufferyard plant material may not be able to be
placed within the easement. The applicant is providing a hedgerow of shrubs along the proposed
screening wall but other larger plant material should not be planted within the easement.
1. Label all required bufferyard on the Site Plan and Landscape Plan
2. Correct the floor area of the building in the Site Plan Site Data Table and within the Interior
Landscape Summary Chart.
3. The full 20’ width of the required south bufferyard is not being provided for the full length of the
bufferyard. The narrowest parts are approximately 17’ wide. The proposed parking and interior
access drive is within the south 20’ – O bufferyard. In no event shall the following uses be
permitted in a bufferyard: playfields, stables, swimming pools, tennis courts or similar facilities,
accessory buildings, parking facilities, or trash dumpsters.
4. The west buffeeryard is required to be provided along the west property line adjacent to Pearson
Lane, not in the middle of the property.
