White Chapel Blvd. LEGAL DESCRIPTION: West, James J Survey; A1620 LAND USE CATEGORY: Mixed Use CURRENT ZONING: “ECZ” Employment Center Zoning District HISTORY: The properties were annexed into the City in 1956 and given the “AG” Agricultural District zoning designation. (Ordinance No. 037) The existing home was built in 1918 and is approximately 2,436 square feet. (Source: TAD) On October 7, 2025, the City Council approved (6-1) a Zoning Change and Development/Site Plan (ZA25-0045) for the development of Trademark Southlake. On January 8, 2026, the City Council approved (6 -0) a Preliminary Plat (ZA25-0076) for the platting of Trademark Southlake. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: Consolidated Future Land Use Plan The future land use designation for the site is “Mixed Use”. Mixed Use Purpose and Definition: The purpose of the Mixed-Use land use category is 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. 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. Mobility & Master Thoroughfare Plan Kirkwood Boulevard is identified as an A4D 100-foot arterial roadway and N. White Chapel Boulevard is identified as an A4D 88-foot arterial roadway within the Southlake Mobility & Master Through Plan. Case No. Attachment A ZA26-0021 Page 2 As proposed by this plat, sufficient right of way is being dedicated on both N. White Chapel Boulevard and Kirkwood Boulevard to meet the comprehensive plan recommendation. UTILITIES: There is an existing 12-inch water line is located in E. Kirkwood B oulevard that has a break between the Metairie subdivision and N. White Chapel Boulevard. There is also a 12-inch water line along the State Highway 114 frontage road. The proposed development will be completing the 12 -inch water line along E. Kirkwood Boulevard and extend the 12-inch water line along the State Highway 114 frontage road. An 8-inch internal water line loop is also proposed for the development. An 8 -inch sanitary sewer will connect to the existing 8-inch sanitary sewer stub off N. White Chapel Boulevard. DRAINAGE: The property drains both west toward the S tate Highway 114 frontage road and east toward N. White Chapel Boulevard, with a natural high point near the center of the property in existing conditions. The proposed drainage design, done by Kimley Horn, will capture runoff in a storm drain system that outlets into a proposed detention pond near the S tate Highway 114 frontage road and ultimately outlet into the TxDOT storm system. The drainage areas along the State Highway 114 frontage road will follow existing conditions and flow directly towards the S tate Highway 114 frontage road. A small portion of the proposed southern drive onto N. White Chapel Boulevard will follow existing conditions and flow into the N. White Chapel storm system.
