Phone Number(optional): `8 1-1 - 3 1 A - 5 8 q(P ZA26-2027: Zoning Chane and Development Plan 1360 N Carroll Avenue POSITION FOR OPPOSING THE REZONING OF THE PROPERTY 1. INCONSISTENCY WITH SOUTHLAKE'S 2035 COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING &CHARACTER To rezone the property located at 1360 N Carroll Avenue from AG to R-PUD in order to allow for the Development Plan for 4 residential lots is not aligned with Southlake's 2035 Comprehensive Plan (Ordinance No. 1173),the "Plan". According to the Plan this property is graded AG and is included in the 114 Corridor,which borders the North Sector, of which the majority of residential area is zoned. Below are excerpts for the Plan which explains why the rezoning and developed is inconsistent with the City's Plan Ordinance No. 1173. "Although recommendations may vary from area to area, all sectors and corridor plans are intended to work together to support a desired direction for growth as outlined in the adopted Vision, Goals and Objectives of the Southlake 2035 Plan(Ordinance No. 1173). The 114 Corridor "Due to its visibility, as well as its unique challenges and opportunities, the 114 Corridor will continue to be evaluated as a distinct planning area from the other sectors." The North Sector emphasizes "The sector has a distinctive rural character due to the large lot residential development pattern and the heavy concentration of natural landscape.As such, the primary objectives for planning in the North sector are the preservation and enhancement of the existing rural character and the preservation of natural areas." The Character of the North Sector is described as such "The north side of Southlake is characterized by equestrian estate lots, large lot neighborhoods, rural road sections,park and school uses, significant tree cover and diverse flora and fauna. Sightings of species more commonly found in less developed areas outside the Metroplex, such as white-tailed deer, turkeys,foxes, coyotes, roadrunner,and migratory birds, are not unusual in this part of the City." 'A key objective of the City of Southlake is to protect this biological diversity." "These features and the development pattern in the north area provide Southlake with a distinctive rural character which differentiates it from other cities in the region. As the Metroplex's population continues to grow and surrounding communities face build-out, this type of development pattern will become less ZA26-2027 Opposed Position Document Nietenhoefer, Karen 5/3/2026 probable. Accordingly, the preservation of the rural character in the north side of Southiake is of the utmost importance to the citizens. Preservation of the north side's development pattern will provide an exceptional environment in the middle of one of the most rapidly developing areas of the country.Also, as available developable land becomes scarce in the metroplex, this unique type of development pattern will help maintain and even increase property values over other more typical or standard types of development." LOSS OF RURAL CHARACTER Over the last 25 years of living in Southlake I have witnessed the disappearance of acreage and beautiful rural open land with longhorn, wildlife, horses, and birds in the 114 Corridor and North Sector all along Carroll Avenue from 114 down to Burney Lane.This is the last section of property that is undeveloped in this area. It is habitat for many animals, migratory birds, deer, and many other types of wildlife along with tree cover and diverse flora and fauna. This undeveloped land provides a quiet and tranquil experience when walking along the trail around the Lake at Carillon and the opportunity to observe nature at its best. School buses can often be seen at the lake as students are taken on fieldtrips to experience fishing and observe the diverse wildlife of the area. The rezoning and building of these 4 homes is definitely not"the preservation of the Rural Character in the north side of Southlake which is the utmost importance for the citizens" per the Plan.Trees will be removed, along with flora and fauna, and destruction of the wildlife's habitat will continue.The tranquil and quiet environment will not exist as homeowners create noise, air, and water pollution. One might make the argument that property developed for the Carillon Neighborhood was graded AG and was located within the 114 Corridor at the time the Plan was developed, but unlike the Proposal at hand, Carillon brought a desirable neighborhood with beautiful landscaped homes, and also parks, greenspace,walking trails, preservation of trees, and large lakes supporting the diverse ecosystem,thus preserving the rural character of the North Sector. In contrast this development is for 4 homes with shared driveways that back up to a flood plain. In addition, if the Proposal is approved,this will impact the rural side of the lake and will disrupt the ecosystem, as well as the exceptional environment created by the Carillon neighborhood that is in direct alignment with the Ordinance No. 1173. 2. INFRASTRUCTURE &SERVICE STRAINS TRAFFIC CONGESTION ZA26-2027 Opposed Position Document Nietenhoefer, Karen 5/3/2026 The area of North Carroll Avenue and Highland is already a highly congested traffic area due to the development of the 114 Corridor,the traffic light allowing access to Highway 114, along with the added complexity of a school zone and crosswalks to allow children to walk to school. Heavy traffic comes from stand-alone businesses and business complexes,the Islamic Center,Jack D Johnson Elementary School, Restoration Church, and the Carroll Middle School.At times traffic is backed up almost to the entrance of Carillon and you may sit through 3 light changes to access 114. Even when school is out for the summer this gridlock happens in early morning during the week and on weekends with all the traffic due to the places of worship and the businesses. This Development Plan will add an estimated 8-12 homeowner vehicles along with the increase of traffic due to sanitation, recycling, postal service, delivery service, landscapers, houseguests,etc. that would utilize this section of North Carroll Avenue, which has a three-lane school zone of which the middle lane is a turning lane,to enter North Carroll Avenue in order to gain access to 114. During school zone hours our city police are used to direct traffic.Traffic is halted and will block the entrance to the common driveways of these homes as the homes are directly across the street from the Elementary School,adding more gridlock,delays,and the possibility of adding additional police to help direct traffic. The rezoning and building of these 4 homes does not demonstrate improvements in support of the Southlake's Mobility Master Plan which aims to improve safety and connectivity through strategic projects focused on thoroughfare improvement, sidewalk construction and active transportation to ensure infrastructure resilience. SHARED DRIVEWAY PROPERTY Many of the surrounding developments such as Carillon, Estes Park and Triple CCC Ranch are neighborhoods with an infrastructure of roads to allow for individual mail delivery and city sanitation services. The proposed development plan indicates the utilization of shared driveways that will be seen from North Carroll Avenue.The shared driveways deter homebuyers for several reasons.You do not have control of who are your neighbors are, or will be, as the property changes hands, but you will have to get along regardless. In today's environment disagreements and conflict are common amongst neighbors and many even end in violence, and for this reason they are harder to sell and resale, thereby reducing the property value and potentially increasing the utilization of local police to settle disputes and arguments amongst the sharing neighbors. It is of the utmost importance that this area be a safe zone for the children across the street attending the elementary school. The Development Plan fails to address how it plans to handle mail delivery, city sanitation services,or how the children of these potential home owners are able to cross the street to attend school. if another crosswalk is needed to be installed or a crossing guard hired, this will add additional traffic delays and will require a capital investment by the City that will have to be maintained. ZA26-2027 Opposed Position Document Nietenhoefer, Karen 5/3/2026 SIDEWALKS Southlake sidewalks are defined as the improved portion of a street or highway located between the curb line and the adjacent property line,specifically intended for pedestrian use. They are intended to provide safe,accessible routes for pedestrians,joggers, cyclists, connecting to parks, schools, and public access areas. The Development Plan indicates sidewalks.Are these really sidewalks as defined by the City? From the diagram they are unusable. The area begins and ends at the property lines. The West side of North Carroll Avenue does not have connected sidewalks currently. It has drainage ditches that flood out during heavy rains,from one driveway entrance to another, unlike the East side which have sidewalks from the school all the way to Burney Lane.The sidewalks on the Development Plan are the shared driveway's entrance/exit which provides a way for the homeowners to enter North Carroll Avenue.They are not intended to provide safe,accessible routes for pedestrians,joggers, nor do they connect to any parks, schools and public access areas. These are there for the sole purpose of the homeowners and not the citizens of Southlake.The Development Plan does not address the frontage drainage issue and whether this would require a capital investment by the City to install drainage pipes and maintain the pipes. DRAINAGE AND INFRASTRUCE IMPACT Replacing agricultural land with impervious surfaces such as roads, sidewalks and homes increases runoff and flood risk. This part of North Carroll Avenue does not have underground drainage.The drainage ditches often flood and saturate the land under North Carroll Avenue. Saturated ground when combined with the heat caused by traffic softens the asphalt roads resulting in damage to the road and therefore increased road maintenance costs. The road had been repaired several years ago and it is beginning to sink in areas. If the land is developed this will become a bigger issue that would require a capital investment by the City again to replace the road. 3. OPPOSED TO REZONING & DEVELOPMENT The proposed R-PUD and the Development Plan for 4 residential lots offers i) no public amenities, such as public parkland, improved infrastructure; ii)goes against Southlake's 2035 Comprehensive Plan (Ordinance No. 1173) and Southlake's Mobility Master Plan; iii) presents infrastructure and safety issues that will require a capital investment by the City with ongoing maintenance expenses and iv) its sole purpose is for the developer's profit.

Carroll Avenue Planning &Zoning Case ZA26-0027 Number Project Location 1360 N. Carroll Avenue I am: Opposed Comments/ Explanation As a Southlake resident since 1983 1 have seen how busy Carroll Avenue has become, especially in a school zone during student arrival and departure hours. Bus traffic is extremely high, along with parent drop off and pickup traffic. Crowding 4 slender properties (condominiums?)on very skinny lots, so narrow that they require shared drives (which requires removing very established trees) directly across from an elementary school is a terrible idea and will only worsen traffic, which can lower student safety. I have seen a tremendous increase in students riding a-bikes and scooters around Carroll Avenue. Please don't forget Carroll Avenue is only two lanes and the turning lane is blocked during busy times and needs police direction. Crowding four residences that would have terrible ingress and egress(again, with shared drives) is not in the best interest of our community. The Burgess property should be left how it is now-a piece of land where deer come in the mornings, and also where students go to take homecoming, prom and graduation photos since they can't find many places that have a backdrop of trees in Southlake anymore.
