To: Corridor Planning Committee
From: Dennis Killough, Director of Planning and Development Services
Subject: Item #4 Overview – Medical Office Building at 451 E. SH 114
Purpose:
Review, discuss and make recommendations regarding a proposed 32,000 sq. ft. medical office
building on approximately 2.65 acres at 451 E. SH 114, immediately east of the Methodist
Southlake Medical Center.
Property Details:
The proposed site is located at 451 E.
SH 114, which currently includes a
surface parking lot and a fire lane with
driveway access on the E. SH 114
access road. The site is
approximately 2000 feet east of the
intersection of the access road and N.
White Chapel Blvd. Surrounding uses
include the Methodist Southlake
Medical Center to the west zoned “S-
P-2” Generalized Site Plan District
and Mike’s Garden Center to the east
zoned “B-2” Commercial
Manufacturing District. The current
zoning is “S-P-2” Generalized Site
Plan District.
Background:
This property was included as part of the zoning change and concept plan (ZA07-052) for
Southlake Regional Medical Center (now Methodist Southlake Medical Center), which was
approved by City Council on July 17, 2007. The zoning is “S-P-2” Generalized Site Plan District,
with “O-2” Office District uses and limited additional uses for the development of a hospital and
medical office complex. The original concept plan showed a 6-story, 90,000 sq. ft. medical office
building with a connection to the hospital on this portion of the site.
Site Detail:
The applicant proposes the development of an approximately 32,000 sq. ft., 3-story free-standing
medical office building (no connection to the hospital).

Master Pathways Plan:
There is an existing >=8 ft. multi-use trail along the E. SH 114 frontage. No additional pathways
are recommended in the Master Pathways Plan on this site.
Southlake Comprehensive Land Use Plan:
The underlying land use designation is
Mixed Use.
Purpose: To provide an option for
large‐scale, master‐planned, mixed use
developments that combine land uses
such as office facilities, shopping, dining,
parks, and residential uses.
Definition: The range of activities
permitted, the diverse natural features,
and the varying proximity to
thoroughfares of areas in the Mixed Use
category necessitates comprehensively
planned and coordinated
development. New development must
be compatible with and not intrusive to existing development. Further, special attention should
be placed on the design and transition between different uses. Typically, the Mixed Use
designation is intended for medium‐to higher‐intensity office buildings, hotels, commercial
activities, retail centers, and residential uses. Nuisance‐free, wholly enclosed light manufacturing
and assembly uses that have no outdoor storage are permitted if designed to be compatible with
adjacent uses. Other suitable activities are those permitted in the Public Parks/Open Space,
Public/Semi‐Public, Low Density Residential, Medium Density Residential, Retail Commercial,
and Office Commercial categories.
Scale and Context Criteria for the Mixed Use Future Land Use Category:
General
• Buildings and their pedestrian entrances are to be oriented towards internal streets.
• Larger-format retail uses (with footprints larger than 40,000 square feet) shall be located
adjacent to the arterial or highway with pedestrian entrances from internal streets.
Retail and Office Uses
• Pedestrian-oriented or automobile-oriented.
Hotel Uses
• Hotel uses should be full-service hotels at market-driven locations, primarily in the S.H.
114 Corridor. Full-service, for the purposes of this plan, shall be hotels that include a
table-service restaurant within or directly attached to the hotel. Other services or
4
amenities typically included would be bell service and room service, as well as available
meeting space.
• The desire is to approve hotels adequate to support market-driven commerce in the City,
paying attention to the product mix such that the hospitality services in the area are
complementary to one another.
Single-family Residential Uses
• Residential uses are to be located between the proposed office or retail uses and
existing residential neighborhoods. These uses are intended to provide a lower intensity
transition between existing neighborhoods and commercial uses.
• Residential uses should be well integrated with proposed open space and other civic
uses to create a sense of place. S.H. 114 Corridor Plan June 20, 2017 Page 17
• They should also be integrated with proposed commercial uses in a manner that
provides internal automobile and pedestrian access to convenience commercial uses.
• Single-family residential uses are recommended to be to the density and scale that is
appropriate based on the context and character of the proposed overall development.
Open Space
• Consider environmental elements as “features,” rather than constraints.
• Emphasis shall be placed on preservation of existing wooded areas and stream
corridors.
• Avoid channeling or piping of streams.
• Streams or creeks should become a focal point rather than the rear of the development.
• Provide natural walking paths along stream and creek corridors.
• Well designed and integrated open spaces are critical to the creation of successful
mixed-use neighborhoods.
• Open spaces should be designed to add value to proposed development and not as an
“after-thought”. To that end, open spaces should maximize frontage along residential
and office uses. Open spaces shall occupy a prominent place in the development of a
neighborhood and form the center pieces of a community.
• Open spaces are intended to be the “front-yards” and invite passive recreational
activities. Open spaces may be in the form of pocket parks, children’s play areas,
squares, linear greens, and conservation areas. Use the topography as an advantage,
do not flatten the site.
• Preserve views.
Civic Uses
• Civic uses such as day-cares, post office, police substation, local government offices,
churches, etc. are encouraged. Ideally, civic uses should be located centrally in the
development and provide convenient access to all other uses and activities in the
development.
5
• Civic uses are to be designed to the scale and context of the neighborhood. Uses are
encouraged to be appropriately scaled to the proposed development and generally
limited to a maximum of 10,000 square feet of built area.
Overall Character and Design for the Mixed Use Future Land Use Category:
• Buildings are to be designed to be pedestrian friendly.
• Buildings shall have shallow setbacks and sidewalks that are a minimum of 10’.
• Buildings are to be oriented towards other buildings (across the street) or towards open
spaces.
• Minimize the impact of surface parking.
• Mix up land uses to maximize shared parking.

Site Specific Recommendations:
The subject property is also included in land use recommendation 114-LU5 in the SH 114
Corridor, which has the following site-specific recommendations:
In addition, land use recommendation 114-LU15 applies to this property:
• Surface parking along S.H. 114 is discouraged unless adequately screened and
buffered. Underground parking or structured parking is preferred when development
scale permits.

MEDICAL AND WELLNESS DISTRICT OVERLAY
The Medical Cluster category is an overlay category designed and intended for the concentration
of local to regional healthcare and related facilities, including Medical/Wellness, specialty surgical
centers, pediatric care, geriatric care of an outpatient nature, research and development facilities
including those operated in partnership with a hospital, university, or other similar institutions, and
health, beauty and wellness clinics and facilities. Retail and office should be strictly limited to uses
which support the primary medical facilities. By its nature, the Medical Cluster is intended to foster
collaboration and multiplication of benefits by locating medical services and disciplines in close
proximity to each other, thereby benefitting both the institutions and the patients they serve. The
Medical Cluster is envisioned to provide the greatest benefits when used in close proximity to
existing medical facilities such as those clustered around the 114 Corridor between N. Carroll
Avenue and N. White Chapel Avenue.
Land Use Percentage of Acreage Flexibility Allowed
Medical, Health and Wellness 75% ±25%
Supporting Office 5% ±5%
Supporting Retail 5% ±5%
Open Space (plazas & squares) 15% ±15%

Re: 3-Story Southlake MOB
Dear Corridor Planning Committee,
The preliminary intent for the proposed development located at the southeast corner of SH 114
and White Chapel Road is to construct a 32,000 square-foot medical office building to complement
the existing adjacent hospital site. The development intends to use surface parking as shown in the
attached Conceptual Site Plan. The proposed building does not connect to the existing hospital as
previous iterations of the Site Plan have shown. The development will utilize the existing detention
basin that was designed and constructed for the development. Additionally, there appears to be
water and sewer extended to the lot. So, there is not a need to extend public utilities to the site.
Sincerely,
Baird, Hampton & Brown
