Item 6DCITY OF SOUTHLAK MEMORANDUM October 13, 2010 To: City Council From: Ken Baker, AICP — Director of Planning & Development Services Subject: Ordinance 983: Southlake 2030 Central Sector Land Use Plan Action Requested: Consider the second reading for Ordinance 983: Southlake 2030 Central Sector Land Use Plan and hold a public hearing. Background Information: The City of Southlake approaches land use planning through sector planning, a method which divides the City into sectors to identify development issues and to develop recommendations for each individual area. This approach recognizes that planning issues are numerous and complex, and may vary from area to area or even site to site. In short, the purpose of a sector plan is to: • Establish a detailed background for the planning area, • Identify current development constraints and issues, • Identify features, resources and areas to be protected or improved, • Explore development opportunities and • List recommendations for the future development and conservation of the area. The third sector plan for formal consideration during the Southlake 2030 Plan process is the Central Sector Plan. No changes have been made to the Central Sector recommendations since the SPIN meeting. Financial Considerations: None. Strategic Link: The Central Sector Land Use Plan relates to all focus areas of the strategy map. Citizen Input/ Board Review: All meetings of the Southlake 2030 Land Use Plan Committee are open to the public. The committee met on July 15, 2010 and July 29, 2010 to discuss the Central Sector. In addition, a SPIN citywide meeting was held on August 23, 2010 (see the SPIN report in Attachment A) and a public hearing was held at the Planning & Zoning Commission meeting on September 23, 2010. Planning & Zoning Commission: September 23, 2010; Approved (6 -0) as presented. City Council: October 5, 2010; 1" Reading Approved (7 -0) as presented. Legal Review: None. Alternatives: Recommend modifications to the proposed Central Sector Plan or move forward with the Central Sector Plan as presented.

Central Sector Plan Area tY.,FPlC Plan Details Existing uses in the central sector are primarily residential uses, comprising 88% of the land area. Parks and open space encompass 3% of the area and civic /religious uses account for 4% of the area. Commercial properties account for less than 1% of the land area. Approximately 5% of the area is classified as vacant or underdeveloped, leaving little room for new development. For this reason very few updates are being proposed. QUESTIONS / CONCERNS Is there anything that shows which properties are along the 1709 Corridor, is it continuous? • Yes it is, the purpose of the plan is to look at the overall land uses for the properties within the sector. There aren't any properties fronting along the sector corridors for FM 1709 or SH 114 in this sector. The Southlake 2030 Plan has several elements that look at citywide recommendations. One of the issues is connectivity. Highland ends at Shady Oaks; I have to use Coventry to get my daughter to school. In what sector are the properties fronting along Carroll? • Those properties will be in the 114 Corridor Plan. Clarify the sectors; the notification letter was misleading. Will we be able to see a final plan and how they relate to one another? • Yes, that will be in the comprehensive land use plan. We will look at all the sectors to adopt a final comprehensive plan where changes could be made if necessary. What accommodations do we have to make changes to this plan? • We look at the plan about every 5 years, also if staff is directed by city council or there is an issue with the plan we do have the ability to amend it in between the time we do the updates. Can you reiterate the connection and stub on East Chapel Downs? • It was indicated to us [staff] about 5 or 6 years ago that the residents did not want to have that connected and I believe that's the direction City Council would go. At this point the city has no intention in doing any connections there. What was the reasoning to divide the Milner property from this sector because it seems to me that it makes more sense to have it here since it's bounded by residential for the Central Sector? • We can address the property today if needed since it is adjoining. Similarly to what is being looked at for the Rucker and Prade properties it may be a possibility for staff to do the same for this property and provide specific recommendations. What about the gas well, where is that located? • That is located on the Milner property east of the internal driveway located on the property. Is any component of this plan talking about the gas well? • There are specific things Council wants to address as policy documents, including gas wells and assisted living facilities. A rational nexus needs to be attained in order for any kind of policy change, but yes we will be looking at this issue during this process. Do you have any jurisdiction over other cities on where they place gas wells? We do not have a lot of control applying our ordinances with other cities. We do work with adjacent cities and ask for compliance. It can go both ways, as with the Joe Wright site and Grapevine High School distance requirement. We are in the early stages of scheduling a regional summit through the Council of Governments where city representatives can talk with each other in regard to issues they experience and drilling ordinances. Are we also considering where the liquor stores will be if it gets passed? • We will look at that but it will be a zoning ordinance amendment rather than something in the comprehensive plan. We need to do something about the White Chapel and Highland intersection. I'm questioning whether or not a roundabout is appropriate at that intersection, because sometimes on some of the other roundabouts don't function as well because of the large amount of traffic coming from one direction. • We will be looking at it specifically and that would be the purpose of the recommendation so staff can begin to study the options at that intersection. City Council will ultimately decide what is done there. So when is the estimated date for all plans to be completed? • The closest timeframe I can estimate will be sometime in 2012. The large majority of the document are existing recommendations from the 2025 plan, there are very few changes being done with this update. Can you elaborate where these trails are supposed to be? • Specifically for the Central Sector it will primarily be going adjacent to the major thoroughfares in the sector. The trails are very difficult to see on the document itself and online, isn't there anything that can be provided so we know specifically where these trails are going through? • Definitely, we can link on our website these maps and plans so they can be viewed with greater detail.

The sector is comprised primarily of medium density and low density residential land uses. As such, the primary objectives for planning in the central sector are preserving the residential character of the area. The Central Sector Plan further addresses the unique characteristics and challenges of the central area and provides specific planning recommendations in regard to land use, mobility, environmental resources, as well as parks, recreation and open space. Sector Planning and Land Use Planning Introduction The City of Southlake's Land Use Plan serves as the community's vision for future development by allocating the appropriate location, concentration and intensity of future development by land use categories. The plan serves as a guide to all decision making as it pertains to the City's future development. The City of Southlake approaches land use planning through sector planning, a method which divides the City into sectors to identify development issues and to develop recommendations for each individual area. This approach recognizes that planning issues are numerous and complex, and may vary from area to area or even site to site. In short, the purpose of a sector plan is to: • Establish a detailed background for the planning area, • Identify current development constraints and issues, • Identify features, resources and areas to be protected or improved, • Explore development opportunities and • List recommendations for the future development and conservation of the area. Sector planning was first implemented in Southlake during the development of the Southlake 2025 Plan in 2004. The City was originally divided into nine planning areas, although some areas were combined during the actual planning process. For the purposes of the 2030 Plan, the City has been divided into eight sectors: Central Sector Plan DRAFT Pagei MAP 1: SOUTHLAKE 2030 PLANNING SECTORS During discussion of the south sector and east sector issues, the Land Use Committee decided to combine the two sectors into one plan area called the southeast sector. The resulting plan document is the Southeast Sector Plan. Although recommendations may vary from area to area, all sector 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 2030 Plan (Ordinance No. 960). As such, the land use recommendations from the sector plans are consolidated to create one cohesive document for the City as a whole and the result is the City's Land Use Plan. Recommendations developed in the sector plans will also be incorporated into other plan elements, such as the Master Thoroughfare Plan and Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan, as appropriate. In addition, the sector plans will be utilized in setting priorities in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) planning process, updating current development ordinances and creating new planning related ordinances or programs as needed.

In addition, the sector plans will be utilized in setting priorities in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) planning process, updating current development ordinances and creating new planning related ordinances or programs as needed. Central Sector Plan DRAFT Pageii Relationship to Southlake's Strategic Management System Strategic planning is an ongoing process where resources, critical concerns, community priorities and citizen needs are combined to produce both a plan for the future and a measure for results. More specifically, Southlake's Strategic Management System links the city's day -to -day activities to a comprehensive long term strategy for public policy and management decisions. The Strategic Management System identifies Strategic Focus Areas and Objectives to guide effective and efficient resource allocation and provides benchmarks to assess performance. The Strategic Focus Areas and Objectives are driven by the City's Citizen Survey and are outlined in the City's Strategy Map (please see Appendix B). The Strategic Management System guided the development of the Southlake 2030 Plan Vision, Goals and Objectives (VGO), which define a desired direction for growth for the City. As such, all recommendations in the Southlake 2030 Plan are tied to at least one Strategic Focus Area from the Strategic Management System and at least one Objective from the Adopted Vision, Goals and Objectives. Relationship to Vision North Texas Vision North Texas is a public, private, non - profit and academic partnership headed by the North Central Texas Council of Governments, the Urban Land Institute, and the University of Texas at Arlington. The partnership was created to serve as a forum for discussion, research, and action on issues related to the growth and development of North Central Texas. In addition, the partnership strives to increase public awareness about important regional land use issues and to build support for initiatives that create a successful and sustainable future for North Texas. Over the last few years, Vision North Texas has invited stakeholders from across the region to participate in a series of workshops to develop a vision for the region's future as well as an action plan Central Sector Plan DRAFT Page iii to achieve that vision. The result of these workshops is North Texas 2050, which describes the preferred future envisioned by Vision North Texas participants. The document also provides guiding principles to help decision - makers achieve the regional vision. The City of Southlake recognizes the importance of the regional vision and has worked to align the Southlake 2030 Plan with North Texas 2050. All Southlake 2030 recommendations are linked to at least one of the guiding principles (please see Appendix C). Additional information on North Texas 2050 and Vision North Texas is available at www.visionnorthtexas.org.

However, these subdivisions are not uniform in nature. Some maintain a distinctive rural feel with mature trees, deep setbacks and streets that lack curb and gutter. Others have more traditional Central Sector Plan DRAFT Pagel neighborhood characteristics such as sidewalks and private open space lots. In addition, there are a number of large, individual estates throughout the sector. 1.2 Preliminary Analysis To fully understand the development issues facing the central area, an analysis of existing conditions is critical. The following section offers an assessment of the existing land uses, zoning and demographics as well as a description of recent development changes in the central sector. 1.2.1 Existing Land Use Distribution Existing uses in the central sector are primarily residential uses, comprising 88% of the land area. Parks and open space encompass 3% of the area and civic /religious uses account for 4% of the area. Commercial properties account for less than 1% of the land area. Approximately 5% of the area is classified as vacant or underdeveloped, leaving little room for new development.

The classifications are based on the Land Based Classification Standards (LBCS) model developed by the American Planning Association. This model extends the notion of classifying land uses by refining traditional categories into multiple dimensions, such as activities, functions, building types, site development character, and ownership constraints. Each dimension has its own set of categories and subcategories. These multiple dimensions allow users to have precise control over land -use classifications.

Low density designations are predominant, with "SF -1" Single Family Residential (1 acre minimum lot size), "SF -2" Single Family Residential (2 acre minimum lot size), and "RE" Residential Estate zoning designations accounting for 47% of the land area. Medium density designations, including "SF -20" Single Family Residential (20,000 sq. ft. minimum lot size), "SF -30" Single Family Residential (30,000 sq. ft. minimum lot size), and "R -PUD" Residential Planned Unit Development (variable lot size), account for 37% of the land area. "AG" Agricultural District zoning is scattered throughout the sector, although the heaviest concentration is found adjacent to Randol Mill Avenue and the western city limit. There is limited non - residential zoning, such as commercial zoning and community service zoning, as indicated in the following map.

Since the Southlake 2025 Plan was adopted, nine new residential subdivisions have been built or our currently under development. These subdivisions range significantly in size from approximately 9 acres (Autumn Creek and Camden Park) to approximately 96 acres (Shady Oaks).

Q ....... Central Sector Plan DRAFT Page 5 2.0 Planning Challenges and Issues Along with the adopted Vision, Goals and Objectives of the Southlake 2030 Plan, these challenges and issues serve as the basis for many of the recommendations outlined in the following chapters. Development of F.M. 1938 The development of F.M. 1938 from a 2 -lane undivided cross section to a variable width, divided regional thoroughfare will change the character of the surrounding area from a rural appearance to a more urban appearance. In addition, the establishment of a new direct connection from F.M. 1709 to S.H. 114 will allow residents and visitors on the west side of Southlake to have faster, easier access to S.H. 114. Accordingly, completion of the roadway is expected to significantly increase traffic counts on F.M. 1938. Traffic counts are expected to decrease on the portion of Randol Mill Avenue that is not part of F.M. 1938 (north of the Randol Mill Avenue bend). Since F.M. 1938 is considered as one of the three major corridors in the City (along with S.H. 114 and F.M. 1709), it will be discussed in more detail in the F.M. 1938 Corridor Plan. Keller and Westlake Master Plans An additional consideration in the central sector is future development adjacent to Southlake's city boundaries in the City of Keller and the Town of Westlake. Land Use The Town of Westlake's Land Use Plan shows a mix of office and low density residential uses (1 acre lots) north of Dove Road. The remainder of Westlake property adjacent to the central sector is shown to be low density residential. Likewise, the City of Keller's Land Use Plan indicates that single family residential uses (25,000 sq. ft. and greater lots) are expected to remain adjacent to the central sector. Sidewalks and Trails Keller's Parks and Trails Master Plan shows one trail adjacent to the central sector — the Northeast Greenwalk /Parkway. This trail is planned along Fawkes Lane, which runs east -west between North Pearson Lane and F.M. 1938. Southlake will have an opportunity to tie into Keller's trail network by connecting the Northeast Greenwalk /Parkway to the future sidewalk planned along the east side of F.M. 1938 that is anticipated as part of the F.M. 1938 widening project. The Town of Westlake does not have a formal trail plan. Central Sector Plan DRAFT Page 6 3.0 Land Use Recommendations In the context of comprehensive planning, "land use" typically refers to future land use designations as shown on the Future Land Use Map. The Future Land Use Map illustrates the desired location and distribution of land uses throughout the City, as opposed to the Existing Land Use Map (discussed in Section 1.2.1) which shows how land is currently being utilized. As such, the Future Land Use Map is an important visual tool used by city decision - makers, city staff, developers, and citizens to understand the community's desired development pattern. Using the Southlake 2030 Plan Vision, Goals and Objectives as a guide and taking the challenges and issues identified in the previous chapter into consideration, the Southlake 2025 Plan Future Land Use Map was reviewed for sites that may require land use designation changes. Three sites were identified for a land use designation revision, primarily due to development changes that have occurred or are expected to occur in the near future. In this sector, only changes to the underlying land use designations are recommended. The first map highlights the area with a recommended land use designation change to the underlying land use designation. The second map shows the areas with a recommended land use designation change to the optional land use designation. In addition to these recommendations, all "T -1" and "T -2" designations on the Optional Land Use Map will be removed as part of the Consolidated Land Use Plan. "T -1" and "T -2" will be discussed further in the Consolidated Land Use Plan. The following maps highlight the areas with recommended land use designation changes. The numbers on the maps correspond to the reference numbers in the table that follows the maps.

Over the past several decades, the physical, social and economic success Southlake has experienced can be attributed in part to the City's transportation network. The highways, streets, paths, railway and proximity to the Dallas -Fort Worth International Airport that provide mobility within the City and access to points beyond have caused Southlake to transition from a relatively isolated community at its incorporation to a premier City in the DFW Metroplex and beyond today. However, the same transportation network has also created adverse side effects: traffic congestion due to regional travel patterns, increased pollutant emissions and high stress levels due to commuting. 4.1 Central Sector Roadways The central sector is bordered on the east by one of the city's major corridors, F.M. 1938 (Randol Mill Avenue). The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is planning improvements for this roadway between F.M. 1709 in Southlake and S.H. 114 in Westlake. Upon completion, this section of F.M. 1938 will be a variable- width, divided thoroughfare with a center median. Within Southlake, F.M. 1938 will be improved to 4 lanes with curb and gutter and turn lanes at intersections. An 8 foot trail will also be provided on the east side of the roadway and a 5 foot sidewalk will be constructed on the west side. These improvements are regionally significant because they will provide an additional north -south thoroughfare between S.H. 360 and U.S. 377. Locally, these improvements will have a major impact on the character of the area. Today, F.M. 1938 has a rural appearance with mature trees providing a canopy over the roadway. Once widened, the roadway will be a regional parkway. Additional discussion on this roadway will be included in the F.M. 1938 Corridor Plan. Typical section from the Town of Westlake's F. M. 1938 Streetscape Master Plan (courtesy of the Town of Westlake) Place Estates (May 2010) Central Sector Plan DRAFT 1=.M.1938 w Page 11 View of F.M. 1938 near Johnson The central sector has three other north -south roadways, including North Peytonville Avenue, Shady Oaks Drive, and North White Chapel Boulevard. North Peytonville Avenue and Shady Oaks Drive are both classified as 2 -lane undivided collectors. Similarly, North White Chapel Boulevard is currently a 2- lane undivided roadway. However, the street is classified as a 4 -lane divided arterial and plans are underway to widen the roadway to its ultimate cross - section. The widening of North White Chapel Boulevard and the associated potential increase in traffic on the roadway may reduce the efficiency of the existing stop signs at the intersection of Highland Street and North White Chapel Boulevard. There are no east -west roadways that span the entire width of the central sector. The only major east - west roadways currently built are Dove Road and Highland Street. Dove Road is classified as a 2 -lane undivided arterial. East Highland Street (east of North White Chapel Boulevard) is classified as a 3 -lane undivided arterial while West Highland Street is a 2 -lane undivided collector. A third east -west connector is proposed between Shady Oaks Drive and North White Chapel Boulevard across Carroll I.S.D. property. The following map illustrates the thoroughfare designations for all the major roadways in the central sector.

Currently the City has an approved Sidewalk Pathways Plan which indicates the location of future sidewalk facilities in the City and priorities these facilities for construction. Also, the City of Southlake ensures construction of sidewalks by the following actions: 1) allocates approximately $400,000 annually for the construction of trails and sidewalks in the CIP (Capital Improvements Program); 2) seeks grants for funding; 3) requires new development to construct sidewalks along public streets adjacent to the site; 4) implemented the sidewalk matching program (a 50% cost sharing program for the design and construction of sidewalks within neighborhoods); and 5) implemented the Sidewalk Partnership program (promotes the dedication of easements by citizens and business for the construction of sidewalks). Although the majority of the residential streets in the central sector lack sidewalks, trail networks are available in Myers Meadow, Southridge Lakes, Southview, Foxborough, Coventry Manor, Westwyck Hills, and Palomar Estates. Unfortunately, these trail networks do not connect to each other. However, all new residential subdivisions are required to provide sidewalks on both sides of the street. Sidewalks are also lacking on major roadways, although sidewalks will be constructed along North White Chapel Boulevard as part of the expansion of the roadway. In addition, sidewalks will be built along both sides of F.M. 1938 when the roadway is widened. Sidewalks are recommended along North Peytonville Avenue; however these sidewalks will present a significant challenge due to inadequate right -of -way, the prevalence of mature trees along the roadway, and drainage issues. As identified in the 2007 Sidewalk Plan, sidewalk segments to be completed in the central area are shown in the following map.

As such, the City of Southlake places a high priority on the protection and conservation of the community's natural assets. "Environmental resources" in this section primarily refer to natural amenities, such as trees, water, soil, air, and wildlife. A more detailed discussion on sustainability, including topics such as energy use, waste reduction, and recycling, may be found in the Sustainability Plan. The primary environmental resource issues in the central sector are protection of the floodplain and preservation and enhancement of the existing tree canopy. Many of the trees are found adjacent to the floodplain, as shown in the map below. Most of these trees are characteristic of the Cross Timbers ecosystem, including Post Oaks, Blackjack Oaks, Cedar Elms, American Elms, Hackberries, Pecans, and Cottonwoods.
