Site Plan for Southlake Regional Medical Center Phase I
PROJECT:
REQUEST: Southlake Land Holdings L.P. is requesting approval of a site plan for Phase I of
Southlake Regional Medical Center on 12.7 acres. The first phase will include a three
story, 55-bed, 129,150 square foot hospital and a four-story, 80,000 square foot
medical office building. The Phase I site plan is consistent with the concept plan that
was approved by City Council on July 17, 2007. The specific types of masonry
materials to be used have been added to the elevations. A second option of the site
nd
plan has been added since the December 2 City Council meeting. The Option “B” site
plan, east elevation and landscape plan show the first floor of the medical office
building footprint to be extended to the east and south to accommodate the
requirements of a possible tenant. The upper floors have been adjusted to keep the
overall floor area at 80,000 square feet. Option “A” is the originally submitted floor plan
with one minor change. The screening wall is now shown to be 14’ instead of 10’ and it
is articulated instead of straight. The Option “A” elevations also contain a few minor
nd
changes since the December 2 meeting. The clock tower design changed to a
scheme with two columns supporting the clock. A rooftop equipment screen that was
shown on the original renderings has been added to the elevations. The windows on
some elevations are larger and the location of the stone veneer has been clarified. The
applicant is requesting relief of the requirement for a bufferyard adjacent to the
detention area on the eastern portion of the property. Also, the applicant has agreed to
escrow the money for the sidewalk along E. Highland until it is constructed to its
ultimate cross-section.

Family Residential to “S-P-2” Generalized Site Plan was approved by City
Council on July 17, 2007.
CURRENT ZONING: “S-P-2” Generalized Site Plan District
TRANSPORTATION
Master Thoroughfare Plan
ASSESSMENT:
The Master Thoroughfare Plan recommends East State Highway 114 to have
300-feet to 500-feet of right-of-way. Adequate right-of-way exists for this road.
The Master Thoroughfare Plan recommends E. Highland Street to be a 3-lane,
undivided arterial street with 70 feet of right-of-way. Adequate right-of-way is
shown to be dedicated on the plan.
Existing Area Road Network and Conditions
The approved concept plan proposes that the site will have two (2) accesses
directly onto the eastbound service road of E. State Highway 114 and three (3)
accesses directly onto E. Highland Street. The Phase I site plan proposes the
two (2) driveways onto E. State Highway 114 and one (1) driveway onto E.
Highland Street. Common access easements have been provided for future
connection with the property to the west.
East State Highway 114 is a six lane, limited access highway with three lane
frontage roads on either side. East Highland Street is currently a 2-lane,
undivided roadway.

PATHWAYS
MASTER PLAN: The Pathways Master Plan recommends an 8-foot plus, multi-use trail along
the south side of E. State Highway 114 and a 6-foot sidewalk along the north
side of E. Highland Street. Both the trail and sidewalk are shown on the
approved concept plan.
WATER & SEWER: A 6-inch water line exists along the south side of E. Highland Street. A 10-inch
sanitary sewer line exists along the south side of E. Highland Street at the
southeast corner of the subject property. The applicant will be required to
provide adequate water and sanitary sewer service to the site as part of
development of the property.
Case No. Attachment A
ZA08-080 Page 2
DRAINAGE: The drainage from Phase I of this development is to the proposed detention
ponds along the east property line.
TREE PRESERVATION: The trees located around the existing structures on the property are mostly
mature Post Oaks with a few Cedar Elm, Eastern Red Cedar and Pecan. The
existing trees along the south property line and within the right-of-way of East
Highland St are mainly Hackberry, Hercules Club and Soapberry trees, with the
western portion covered in Grapevine. The trees within the western edge of the
property are mainly smaller Post Oaks than the ones around the existing
structures in the north portion of the property.
The applicant is proposing to preserve some of the trees existing around the
current structures within a small park like setting within the development. Other
existing trees are proposed to be preserved within the bufferyard area along
Hwy. 114, within the right-of-way of East Highland St, and within an increased
bufferyard and interior landscape area within the western edge of the
development.
The trees within the right-of-way of East Highland St would most likely be
removed if East Highland St was widened or drainage worked need to provided
along the north side of the road. The trees and vegetation are dense and
seems to provide a suitable screen, but some trees will die as they mature and
the western portion will decline from being heavily covered with Grapevine.

STAFF COMMENTS: A zoning change and concept plan from “AG” Agricultural and “SF-1A” Singe
Family Residential to “S-P-2” Generalized Site Plan was approved by City
Council on July 17, 2007. Driveway spacing and stacking substantially conform
to the approved concept plan. A variance to the minimum 150 ft. stacking
depth that is required for driveways located on E. State Highway 114 and E.
Highland Street was granted by City Council to allow ±43 feet of stacking depth
for the driveways on E. State Highway 114 and ±35 ft. and ±23 ft. for the west
and east driveways on E. Highland Street, respectively. The minimum driveway
spacing along the SH 114 frontage road and an arterial street is 250 feet
between centerlines.A variance was granted to allow a ±146 ft. spacing to the
nearest existing drive to the east of the property on E. State Highway 114 and
a ± 194 ft. spacing to the nearest existing drive to the east on E. Highland
Street. TxDOT denied the location of the eastern drive on E. State Highway
114. The revised eastern driveway location provides ± 398 ft. spacing to the
nearest drive to the east of the property. Actions from that case are included
below.

1. The response from the engineer indicates that the TIA will be revised to include the deceleration lane
along the frontage road of SH114. However, the signed and sealed TIA provided by Land Plan does
not address State Highway 114 or the need for a deceleration lane which may be required by TxDOT
based on the number of trips indicated. Approval for the driveway locations and the requirement of
the deceleration lane will ultimately be with TxDOT. If TxDOT requires the deceleration lane and
additional ROW, the site plan may be required to be modified and resubmitted to the City Council for
approval.
2. The curb return radii for driveways onto SH114 and Highland must be 30’ minimum.
* Easements for public water, sanitary sewer and drainage will be required to be shown on the
corresponding plat. Easements shall be 15’ minimum and located on one lot – not centered on the
property line. A 20’ easement is required if both storm sewer and sanitary sewer will be located within
the easement.
* Sight distances will be required to conform to AASHTO guidelines on adjacent collectors and arterials.
* Use the City of Southlake GPS monuments whenever possible.
WATER AND SANITARY SEWER COMMENTS:
* For all commercial and industrial uses, fire hydrant shall be spaced a maximum of 300 linear feet
apart, or 600 linear feet if buildings are sprinklered.
* Adequate separation between the water and sanitary sewer shall meet or exceed TCEQ requirements.
* Water meters and fire hydrants must be located in an easement or in the ROW.
* Fire lines shall be separate from the service lines.
DRAINAGE COMMENTS:
* The difference between pre and post development runoff shall be captured in the detention pond(s).
The proposed detention ponds shall control the discharge of the 2, 10 and 100 year storm events.
Access easements are needed for maintenance of the detention pond.
* Verify that the size, shape, and/or location of the detention pond(s), as depicted on the site plan, will
be adequate to meet the detention requirements. Any changes to the size, shape, and/or location of
the proposed pond(s) may require a revision to the site plan and may need to be approved by the
Planning and Zoning Commission and the City Council.
* A minimum of 1’ of freeboard is required for the detention pond(s).
* All storm sewers collecting runoff from the public street shall be RCP.
* This property drains into Critical Drainage Structure #9 and requires a fee to be paid prior to
beginning construction ($278.14/acre).
* The drainage from Phase I of this development is to the proposed detention ponds along the east
property line.
* The discharge of post development runoff must have no adverse impact on downstream properties
and meet the provisions of Ordinance # 605.
INFORMATIONAL COMMENTS:
* Submit 5 copies of the civil construction plans (22” X 34” full size sheets) and a completed
Construction Plan Checklist as part of the first submittal for review directly to the Public Works
Administration Department. The plans shall conform to the most recent construction plan
checklist, standard details and general notes which are located on the City’s website.
