PROJECT:Zoning Change and Site Plan for
Regent’s Professional Park
REQUEST:
On behalf of NADO Ltd., Blake Architects is requesting approval of a Zoning Change
and Site Plan from “SF-1A” Single-Family Residential District to “S-P-1” Detailed Site
Plan District for the development of five (5) medical office buildings of approximately
6,000 sq ft each on 3.54 acres.
The proposed “S-P-1” Detailed Site Plan District will follow the permitted uses and
development regulations of the “O-1” Office District with the exceptions noted in
Attachment C, Page 3.
A Variance to the “Minimum Distance to an Intersection along a Roadway” is being
requested with this application. The proposed driveway is 348-feet west of the River
Oaks Drive intersection with Southlake Blvd; 500-feet is required.
This zoning request is not consistent with the Southlake 2025 Land Use
recommendation of “Low Density Residential” in this location. The applicant has
requested an amendment to the Comprehensive Land Use Plan (CP08-001) to change
this location’s land use to “Office Commercial.”
Per the request of City Council at first reading, the driveway stub on the western
property line has been eliminated, however the design remains flexible so that a future
connection would be possible. No Common Access Easement between the two
properties is proposed.
The plan proposes the following:
Gross / Net Acreage 3.54 acres
% Impervious Coverage 63%
% Open Space 37%
Number of Office Buildings 5
Total Building Square Footage 29,570 square feet
Parking Provided 171 spaces
Effective Parking Ratio 1 space per 173 square feet
ACTION NEEDED:1. Conduct public hearing
Case No.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
OWNER:

APPLICANT:
Blake Architects
PROPERTY SITUATION:
2580 and 2530 W. Southlake Boulevard
LEGAL DESCRIPTION:
Tracts 2C14 and 2C15, J.G. Allen Survey, Abstract No. 18
CURRENT ZONING:
SF-1A Single Family Residential District
REQUESTED ZONING:
S-P-1 Detailed Site Plan District
HISTORY:
A Zoning Change for “SF-1A” Single Family Residential was approved for the
Jellico Estates area in 1973.
There is no further development history on this property.
SOUTHLAKE 2025 PLAN:
Consolidated Land Use Plan
Low Density Residential – A category for single-family detached residential
development at a density of one or fewer dwelling units per acre. Other
suitable activities are those permitted in the Public Parks / Open Space and
Public / Semi-Public categories. The Low Density Residential category
encourages the openness and rural character of the City of Southlake.
Davis Blvd /FM 1938 Corridor Plan
Davis Boulevard/F.M. 1938 Corridor Plan
The recommends a transition from
higher intensity retail and office uses near the Southlake Boulevard and
F.M. 1938 intersection to lower intensity office and residential uses adjacent
to Jellico Estates. Although the land use designation of the subject site is
Davis Boulevard/F.M. 1938 Corridor Plan
Low Density Residential, the notes
that property immediately adjacent to F.M. 1709 may not be suitable for
single family residential development.
Davis Boulevard/F.M. 1938 Corridor Plan
In addition, the recommends master
planning this site with the property to the east, which is the future River Oaks
Plan
development. The also recommends providing connectivity between the
properties. The applicant is proposing a drive that will connect to the River
Oaks development as well as a sidewalk that will allow pedestrians to flow
between the two office developments.
Environmental Resource Protection Plan
Although this site does not have any specific tree cover/open space
Environmental Resource Protection Map
preservation areas as shown on the ,
Environmental
there are several trees scattered across the property. The
Resource Protection Plan
recommends the preservation of trees whenever
feasible. The applicant’s Tree Conservation Plan indicates that approximately
30% of the existing tree coverage may be preserved.
Case No. Attachment A
ZA08-044 Page 1
Pathways Plan & Sidewalk Plan
There is an existing 8 ft. sidewalk along a majority of this property’s Southlake
Boulevard frontage. The sidewalk does not extend the entire length due to the
planned construction of a deceleration lane by TXDOT. This missing sidewalk
segment will be constructed in conjunction with the deceleration lane project.
Sidewalk Plan
Per the , a through-pedestrian zone designated by pavement
markings, pavers, or other distinctions is recommended across the entry drive.
TREE PRESERVATION:
The applicant has proposed to preserve approximately 30% of existing tree
cover; however many of the trees that are shown to be “marginal” are within
close proximity of grade changes, driveway curbs, parking stalls, or buildings
and their preservation is questionable. There are some high quality post oak
trees located on the western portion of the site that would be worth saving but
would require significant redesign of the site to accomplish this.
TRANSPORTATION
ASSESSMENT:
Master Thoroughfare Plan & Median Plan
Master Thoroughfare Plan
Southlake’s calls for W. Southlake Boulevard (FM
1709) to be a multi-lane TXDOT roadway requiring 130 feet of right-of-way. No
additional right-of-way is required to be dedicated by these properties at this
time.
Median Plan Urban Design Plan
The componentof Southlake’s recommends a
landscaped median in Southlake Blvd with no median break/opening at this
location. Access to a controlled intersection will be possible through an
internal driveway connection to the east.
TXDOT has a deceleration lane planned for Jellico Circle East just west of this
Case No. Attachment A
ZA08-044 Page 2
property.
Existing Area Road Network and Conditions
The development has approximately 400-feet of frontage along Southlake
Boulevard (FM 1709), a five-lane TXDOT roadway with little to no shoulder.
The development is proposing to be serviced by a single driveway onto
Southlake Blvd as well as a future connection to River Oaks Drive through the
River Oaks development to the east.

CLARIFICATION, PLEASE CONTACT .
1. The following comments are in regard to site plan labeling and site design:
a. If grading permits, provide a sidewalk connection from the westernmost internal sidewalk to
the 8’ trail along Southlake Blvd.
b. An 8-foot sidewalk/trail is required along this property’s entire Southlake Blvd frontage.
Any damage to existing sidewalks as a result of site development will have to be repaired
or replaced by the developer and/or builder.
c. Landscape Plan:
i. With the removal of the trees in the southeast corner of the property (per Staff’s
recommendation), revise the tree credits calculations and plant the appropriate
number and type of landscaping in that area.
ii. Revise the Landscape Plan to match the Site Plan with respect to the driveway
stub on the western property line and provide landscaping within the bufferyard in
that location.
iii. If any of the trees intended to be saved (shown as “marginal” on the tree
conservation plan) within interior landscape islands are removed due to
development conditions, the applicant must place the number and type of trees that
both meet the Landscape Ordinance and the landscape theme of the development.
d. Note that the applicant has stated that the “wet detention” ponds will be fully watered
ponds with water fountains
2. Add a regulation to the S-P-1 development regulations that front yard setbacks along Southlake
Blvd may be reduced equal to the width of any required ROW dedication should a deceleration
lane be required for this development by TXDOT.
3. It should be noted that the proposed parking ratio of 1 space per 171 square feet is not consistent
with the individual lot parking calculations as presented in the Site Data Summary Chart. Per the
proposed SP1 Zoning Regulations, however, each lot will be required to meet the 1:171 ratio until
the development is completed.
4. Prior to issuance of a building permit, a Property Owners Association (POA) document must be
created and placed on file with the City of Soutlake. This document must address a reciprocal

LANDSCAPE ADMINSTRATOR COMMENTS
CONTACT: KEITH MARTIN – (817)748-8229; kmartin@ci.southlake.tx.us
TREE CONSERVATION COMMENTS:
1. Some of the existing trees proposed to be preserved have parking lot curbs and sidewalks proposed
through them and grade changes that would considerably alter the critical root zone area of the trees.
Please ensure that all trees proposed to be preserved have sufficient critical root zone area preserved
to maintain their mass and that meets the requirements of the Tree Preservation Ordinance.
To preserve some of the trees it may be necessary to combine some of the parking lot landscape
medians to provide enough area to properly preserve the trees. In order to do this the following
requirements must be adhered to and there must be no grade proposed around the trees.
Existing Trees: The Landscape Administrator may approve variations to the planter island
requirements in order to preserve existing trees in interior parking areas. For existing trees the
Case No. Attachment D
ZA08-044 Page 2
minimum width of the planter island shall be as follows:
Tree Size Min. Island Width Min. Dist. Tree to Curb
6" - 12" DBH = 12' minimum width 4’
Greater than 12" DBH = 18' minimum width 8’
* Please be aware that all existing trees shown to be preserved on the City Council approved Tree
Conservation Plan must be preserved and protected during all phases and construction of the
development. Alteration or removal of any of the existing trees shown to be preserved on the approved
Tree Conservation Plan is a violation of the Tree Preservation Ordinance and the zoning as approved
by the Southlake City Council. Please ensure that the layout of all structures, easements, utilities,
structures grading, and any other structure proposed to be constructed do not conflict with existing
trees intended to be preserved.
LANDSCAPE PLAN:
* The applicant is proposing to take existing tree credits for existing tree proposed to be preserved on
the site. Existing tree credits shall only be granted if the tree/s are in healthy condition and all
requirements of the Tree Preservation Ordinance have been met as determined by the Landscape
Administrator at the time of inspection for a Permanent Certificate of Occupancy.
