RE: Tree Preservation Plan —2260 Johnson Road; Case No.: ZA22-0059
This memo is an acknowledgement that our current design is not in compliance with the City of Southlake Ordinance
585-E, Sec.7.2.a and Table 2.0 — Existing Tree Cover Preservation Requirements. We respectfully ask for a
variance from the existing code.
Ordinance 585-E: Sec.7.2.a
Table 2.0 — Existing Tree Cover Preservation Requirements. Minimum percentage of the existing tree cover to be
preserved = 70%
Table 2.0—Existing Tree over Preservation Requirements
Percentage of existing tree cover on the Minimum percentage of the existing tree
entire site 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.
Variance Proposal:
Current existing tree cover constitutes for 4.9% of the lot coverage. Proposed development at 2260 Johnson Road
for a Low-Density Residential use would require a removal of 3 out of 8 existing trees from within the property. Such
action would result in the preserving 60.4% of the existing tree cover. We are asking to have the current proposed
tree preservation to be accepted.
We truly appreciate the consideration for this variance and understand that environmental sustainability and
stewardship and protecting the remaining natural resources in the city to maintain and enhance the quality of life of
the residents and businesses is a high priority for the City of Southlake. Please feel free to contact me if you have
any questions.
