Please correct the discrepancy. If only two lanes are being built, provide justification by way of a traffic analysis and executive summary conclusion. b.Extend the medians on Grace Lane and Blessed Way to the first drives.

Case No. Attachment D ZA08-022 Page 1 * A fully corrected plan that includes all associated support plans/documents and conditions of approval is required before any ordinance or zoning verification letter publication or before acceptance of any other associated plans for review. Plans and documents must be reviewed and stamped “approved” by the Planning Department. * The elevations are subject to City Council approval following a recommendation from the Planning and Zoning Commission. It is the applicant’s responsibility to demonstrate compliance. Staff recommends providing material samples as part of this demonstration. * All mechanical units must be screened of view in accordance with Ord. 480, Section 43.9c1(c). * Please note that the maximum height for monument signs is twelve (12) feet measured from the finished grade of the adjacent paved surface of the SH 114 frontage roads. Signs would not be permitted on top of the berms at the intersections of Grace Lane and Blessed Way with S.H. 114. * All development must comply with the City’s Drainage Ordinance No. 605 and detain all post development run-off. * All infrastructure must be installed and accepted or otherwise approved by the Director of Public Works and Fire Marshal prior to issuance a permit for building construction. * No review of proposed signs is intended with this site plan. A separate building permit is required prior to construction of any signs. 65 or 75 * It appears that this property lies within the LDN D/FW Regional Airport Overlay Zone and will require construction standards that meet requirements of the Airport Compatible Land Use Zoning Ordinance No. 479. * The applicant should be aware that prior to issuance of a building permit a Plat must be processed and filed in the County Plat Records, a fully corrected site plan, landscape plan, irrigation plan, and building plans, must be submitted for approval and all required fees must be paid. This may include but not be limited to the following fees: Park Fee, Perimeter Street Fee, Water & Sewer Impact and Tap Fees, and related Permit Fees. * A letter of permission from the adjacent property owner(s) on the west must be obtained prior to issuance of a building permit for the construction of the off-site pavement and a permit from TxDOT must be obtained prior to any curb cut along F.M. 1709. * Please be aware that any change of tenant/owners with a request for a new C.O. will require that all parking areas meet the "all weather surface" requirement in the zoning ordinance and all fire lanes shall be per the Fire Department's requirements. * Denotes Informational Comment Landscape Administrator Comments: Case No. Attachment D ZA08-022 Page 2 Keith Martin (817) 748-8229 TREE CONSERVATION COMMENTS: 1. The scale of the submitted Tree Conservation Plan is too small to make out the species and trunk diameters of the exiting trees. Please submit the Tree Conservation Plan at a legible scale. * The Tree Conservation Plan is generally consistent with the Concept Plan and Preliminary Plat Tree Conservation Plans. More trees are proposed to be preserved south of the parking lot area east of the lake due to elimination of a fire lane and cul-de-sac. However, a 13’ berm is proposed at the southeast corner of the property at Blessed Way and Highway 114 that would remove about the same amount of trees. Existing trees that were previously shown to be preserved along Blessed Way are now proposed to be removed in order to construct screening berms within the bufferyard and interior landscape area along Blessed Way. The proposed configuration of the #1 Pond adjacent to Highway 114 seems to have changed and proposed grading does not reach as far horizontally east to Highway 114 as previously proposed. Also only trees that are proposed to be removed with the proposed phase of the development or shown to be altered instead of across the entire development as shown on the Concept Plan Tree Conservation Plan. * 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. PARKING LOT LANDSCAPE ISLANDS: 1. Some of the parking lot landscape islands measure smaller than the required 12’ width. Planter islands shall have a minimum width of 12’ back-to-back if curbed or 13’ edge-to-edge if no curb is intended, and shall be equal to the length of the parking stall. LANDSCAPE PLAN: 1. The submitted Landscape Plan is not consistent with the Landscape Plan submitted with the Concept Plan. The bufferyard plantings along Blessed Way are generally consistent with the Concept Landscape Plan and some berms have been added. However, the original Concept Landscape Plan showed the full planting of materials in accordance with the \ Type J bufferyard adjacent to State Highway 114 in addition to the existing trees (no new plantings are proposed), showed two trees per parking lot island (only one per island is proposed) and showed planting of canopy trees, accent trees and shrubs within the access drives (no plantings are proposed). Please provide a Landscape Plan that is consistent with what was submitted and approved with the development Concept Plan. 2. Typical parking lot landscape island details are provided on the landscape plan but they are not consistent with total landscape design. Canopy trees are shown within most all of the parking lot Case No. Attachment D ZA08-022 Page 3 landscape islands but the typical island plantings show only shrubs and ornamental grasses, no trees are provided. * In the parking lot areas that are intended to be future structured parking it may be more beneficial to only install shrubs and ground cover during this phase of development and plant the proposed canopy trees and accent trees somewhere else on the property. This only if the parking lot areas are truly intended to be structured parking in the near future. * The different plant material symbols on the landscape plan cannot be distinguished. Please submit a color landscape plan that distinguishes the different types of plant material by color. This is a City Council request. LANDSCAPE SUMMARY CHARTS: 1. Please provide the Season Color plant material calculations to the Interior Landscape Summary Chart. 2. The plant material calculations within the Bufferyard Summary Chart are slightly off and the total length of the south bufferyard adjacent to Highway 114 is 2,206’ instead of 981’ as shown. Please correct the bufferyard calculations for each designated bufferyard. # Denotes required items * Denotes recommended items Case No. Attachment D ZA08-022 Page 4 Surrounding Property Owners Gateway Church SPO # Owner Zoning Land Use Acreage 1.
