Item 11ACity of Southlake
Department of Planning
MEMORANDUM
December 28, 2005
TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Ken Baker, AICP, Planning Director
SUBJECT: Discussion Item — Comprehensive Plan Amendment Process and Application
In an effort to effectively implement the land use recommendations of the Southlake 2025 Plan and to
maintain consistency between the plan and zoning, staff is recommending that a comprehensive plan
amendment be required for any zoning change application that is not consistent with the Southlake 2025
Plan. The amendment process will provide flexibility in response to changing circumstances and will
accommodate changes that meet the intent of the Southlake 2025 Plan, while ensuring that zoning is in
accordance with the plan. Every comprehensive plan amendment will be processed as a resolution.
Attached with this memo is the proposed application. All new zoning requests that are not consistent
with the Southlake 2025 Plan will be required to include a comprehensive plan amendment application
beginning with the January 17, 2006 pre - submittal deadline.
Please review the attached application for a discussion at your January 3, 2006 regular meeting. Please
feel free to give me a call if you have further questions.
ACTION NEEDED: None at this time.
ATTACHMENTS: Proposed consolidated plan amendment application.
