Site Plan and Specific Use Permit for Southlake Wellness Center
PROJECT:
REQUEST: On behalf of Ascend Investments, Blake Architects is requesting approval of a Site
(ZA07-157)
Plan for the development of one two-story medical and general office
building of 14,588 square feet on approximately 1.0 acre.
The “S-P-2” Generalized Site Plan District zoning was approved on the property by City
Council on February 6, 2001 and allows for “O-1” Office District development, which
includes medical and general office uses. The site plan is consistent with the
approved concept plan.
Blake Architects is also requesting approval of a Specific Use Permit for nine (9) non-
(ZA08-010)
residential carports as part of the proposed site plan. In addition to the
SUP requirement, Section 45.11 of Zoning Ordinance 480 also regulates the
development of non-residential carports. That section stipulates the following:
Maximum Number of Spaces and Size: The maximum number of spaces that
may be covered by a carport shall not exceed six (6) spaces. However,
where a carport is not visible from a public right-of-way or from a single-
family residential property… the Planning and Zoning Commission may
recommend and the City Council may approve an increase in the number of
spaces allowed in a carport. The minimum size of each space shall be 9’ X
20’.
The applicant is requesting 9 carport spaces built into the rear or the proposed
building. Each proposed space is sized at 9’ X 18’

Additionally, the site will have access to a common access drive to the south
