July 1, 2024 Narrative for Zoning Change Submittal S-P-2 Generalized Site Plan District for 479 Kimball Avenue, Southlake, Texas This site shall comply with all conditions of the City of Southlake Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance No. 480, as amended, as it pertains to Section 22, C-3 General Commercial District uses and regulations with the following exceptions: Permitted Uses: The permitted uses shall be restaurant and event space with exterior patios and associated accessory uses per Section 34 of the zoning ordinance. C-3 District allows for restaurant use as well as commercial amusement centers, and auditoriums, theatres, and cinemas. Development Regulations: The site in question is in the 114 Corridor which is part of a Land Use plan that identifies our specific parcel as being intended for restaurant and special retail use. Please refer to Exhibit B (attached) which is a page from the Land Use plan concerning the 114 Corridor which shows our site location. Additionally, the site is shown as Mixed Use in the Future Land Use Map which is also attached for reference as Exhibit C. The site development will also be governed by the adjacency to single family residential property to the east within 400’ which will cause Section 43, Part III, Residential Adjacency Standards to apply as well. Additional Information: The focus of this application is to change the zoning of the parcel at 479 North Kimball in Southlake from AG Agricultural to SP-2. The model we have been using for our zoning analysis is C3 Commercial which is the zoning for much of the surrounding area. Please refer to Exhibit A (attached) which is a portion of the Southlake Zoning Map which identifies our site and zoning of adjacent parcels. The restaurant will be an upscale restaurant which will seat 250, for dinner only, 7 days a week. The event space will seat 200 for dining and will likely only be in use on the weekends. At peak times, 450 seats will require 150 parking spaces based on C3 zoning requirements. The requirement is based on 1 spot per every 3 seats in the dining areas. Our site plan is currently configured to provide the required parking. The site has a church to the north of the site and per local liquor licensing laws the front door of our restaurant is more than the required distance from the church. Please refer to Exhibit D (attached) which is a due diligence report from a permit specialist showing the property’s eligibility for a liquor license upon receipt of a zoning change.
The closest residence to the site is on the North East side and we have located deliveries, loading and trash on the south side of the site to shield them from the residential neighbors. Please refer to the submitted site plan.

findings indicate this business would be in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations if the zoning change

to the proposed restaurant use this could potentially hinder your permit request.

results, LaBarba does not guarantee the issuance of an alcohol permit by TABC.
Disclaimer: While our due diligence report offers valuable insights into the feasibility of obtaining an alcohol permit for your business, it's important to note that it does not
encompass all the necessary requirements for developing/using the property as proposed. To ensure full compliance and readiness for your business venture, we strongly advise
obtaining additional due diligence reports. Specifically, we recommend obtaining a parking analysis, zoning due diligence report, and permitting due diligence reports. These reports
will provide essential information regarding building permits, zoning regulations, and parking requirements, which are integral aspects of your project's success. It's essential to
understand that the information provided in our report may not cover all facets of compliance with City, County, and State regulations. For a more comprehensive review tailored to

Existing and Proposed Utilities
Water
A 12-inch public water line runs North to South along the South bound of Kimball Ave. It is anticipated
that the domestic and fire service for the new building will connect to this line. A new domestic meter
and double check preventer will be provided for this development.
A new fire hydrant may need to be installed on the East side of Kimball Ave, adjacent to the site, to
provide the required fire protection for the new building.
Sanitary Sewer
A 10-inch public sanitary sewer line runs North to South along the South bound of Kimball Ave. It is
anticipated that the sanitary sewer service for the new building will connect to this line.

Storm sewer
An existing storm sewer and curb inlets are located along the Noth bound of Kimball Ave.
Without a comprehensive downstream drainage analysis, it is anticipated that on-site detention will be
required for this development to mitigate and increase in runoff due to the added impervious area. The
discharge from the detention pond will connect to the existing storm sewer near the site. The release
will match the pre-development rates.
The anticipated detention volume for this development is around 30,000 CF using the Modified Rational
Method. An underground detention structure can be located under the parking area, towards the low
spot of the site. The required surface area for the structure will be around 8,500 SF based on a 3.5’
depth. The exact required volume will be validated during the design phase of this project.
Refer to sketch below for details.

Fire Protection
A minimum of one new fire hydrant will be required to provide the 400’ hose-lay to all corners of the
building.
A fire lane will be provided on the property if required to satisfy the 150’ max distance to the building.
Grading and Drainage
A new storm system composed of grate and curb inlets, reinforced concrete pipes and on-site detention
will be provided for this development.
The anticipated underground detention structure will be located on the low side of the property to
match the existing condition. The site will be graded to provide positive drainage away from structures
and toward the inlets. The runoff will be collected within the detention area and the discharge line
connected to the public system. The release from detention structure will match the pre-development
condition.
