PATHWAYS
MASTER PLAN: The Southlake Pathways Plan recommends an 8-foot multi-use trail along
Southlake Boulevard. In addition to meeting the above requirement, the
proposed development will built an internal sidewalk network linking all the
buildings on the site to the trail.
WATER & SEWER: The proposed development will connect to an existing 8” sanitary sewer line
located at the southwest of the property and an existing 12” water line on
Southlake Boulevard.
DRAINAGE ANALYSIS: Drainage is generally to the south through this development to the existing
storm sewer system in the Chesapeake Subdivision. The on-site developed
condition run-off is being detained in a detention pond located in the southern
portion of the development.
TREE PRESERVATION: In the middle of site there is a small stand of approximately sixteen (16) Pine
trees of which approximately six (6) have declined in health. These trees are
proposed to be removed for the building pads and parking. In the north portion
of the site there are some mature Mulberry and Mesquite trees along with some
small Eastern Red Cedars and Austrian Pines that are being saved. There are
some Post Oaks along the east property line that are shown to remain. There is
one (1) 18” Pine tree on the south property line that is shown to be preserved.

GENERAL COMMENTS:
1. Submit driveway plans to TXDOT directly for review. TXDOT will make the final determination for
the driveway permit.
* Use the City of Southlake GPS monuments whenever possible.
WATER AND SANITARY SEWER COMMENTS:
* Public water and sanitary sewer lines shall be 8” minimum and shall be located within an easement or in
the ROW. Any private lines shall be labeled as such on the plans. Show the easements on the plan for
clarification. Will the easements be dedicated by plat or by separate instrument?
* Consider connecting the water line to the line in the Chesapeake Place Subdivision to the south to
complete the loop.
* Public sewer and water lines shall not be constructed under pavement, when possible. Public utilities
under parking lots and main drives are not recommended, as maintenance of these utilities may cause
disruption in the flow of traffic and parking within the site.
* Water and sanitary sewer lines cannot cross property lines without being in an easement or in the
ROW. All water and sanitary sewer lines in easements or in the ROW shall be constructed to City
standards.
* Fire hydrants and water meters shall be located in an easement or in the ROW.
DRAINAGE COMMENTS:
1. Provide a preliminary drainage plan with existing and proposed condition calculations, as well as
volume calculations for sizing the detention pond.
* The difference between pre and post development runoff for the 5, 10 and 100 year storm events shall
be captured in the detention pond. Discharge from the pond shall be controlled for these storm events,
as well.
* Verify that the size, shape, and/or location of the detention pond, as depicted on the
site/concept/development 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
concept/site/development plan and may need to be approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission
and the City Council.
* Consider grading the west and northeast drives so that drainage stays within the site rather than flowing
onto the adjacent property.
* Curb inlets are typically more effective in parking lots than grate inlets.
* Public storm sewer shall be 18” RCP minimum. Label all private lines on the Drainage and Utility Plan
sheet for clarification.
* There is no Critical Drainage Structure fee for this development.
* The discharge of post development runoff must have no adverse impact on downstream properties and
meet the provisions of Ordinance # 605.

WHEREAS,
pursuant to Chapter 211 of the Local Government Code, the City has the authority to

the City’s Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance; and
WHEREAS,
a change in the zoning classification of said property was requested by a person or
corporation having a proprietary interest in said property; and
WHEREAS,
the City Council of the City of Southlake, Texas, at a public hearing called by the City
Council did consider the following factors in making a determination as to whether these changes should be
granted or denied: safety of the motoring public and the pedestrians using the facilities in the area immediately
surrounding the sites; safety from fire hazards and damages; noise producing elements and glare of the
vehicular and stationary lights and effect of such lights on established character of the neighborhood; location,
lighting and types of signs and relation of signs to traffic control and adjacent property; street size and
adequacy of width for traffic reasonably expected to be generated by the proposed use around the site and in
the immediate neighborhood; adequacy of parking as determined by requirements of this ordinance for off-
street parking facilities; location of ingress and egress points for parking and off-street loading spaces, and

Case No. Attachment G
ZA06-153 Page 4
WHEREAS,
the City Council of the City of Southlake, Texas, does find that the changes in zoning
lessen the congestion in the streets, helps secure safety from fire, panic, and other dangers, promotes the health
and the general welfare, provides adequate light and air, prevents the over-crowding of land, avoids undue
concentration of population, and facilitates the adequate provision of transportation, water, sewerage, schools,
parks and other public requirements; and,
WHEREAS,
the City Council of the City of Southlake, Texas, has determined that there is a necessity
and need for the changes in zoning and has also found and determined that there has been a change in the
conditions of the property surrounding and in close proximity to the tract or tracts of land requested for a
change since the tract or tracts of land were originally classified and therefore feels that the respective changes
in zoning classification for the tract or tracts of land are needed, are called for, and are in the best interest of
