BACKGROUND INFORMATION
OWNER: Masco Service Corporation
APPLICANT: Hammers & Partners: Architecture, Inc.
PROPERTY SITUATION: 1200 N. Kimball Avenue
LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Tract 2A3, situated in the F. Throop Survey, Abstract No. 1511
LAND USE CATEGORY: Medium Density Residential with a T-2 Transition District overlay option.
CURRENT ZONING: “B-1” Business Service Park District
HISTORY: The City of Southlake placed the "B-1" zoning on the property with approval of
Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance No. 480 on September 19, 1989.
TRANSPORTATION
Master Thoroughfare Plan
ASSESSMENT:
The Master Thoroughfare Plan recommends N. Kimball Avenue to be a 2-lane,
undivided roadway with 88 feet of right-of-way. Adequate right-of-way is
being dedicated for this road.
Existing Roadway Network
The proposed site will have one (1) access directly onto N. Kimball Avenue.
The drive is proposed to be a full access drive. A future common access
easement is conceptually shown to provide a future access to the site from E.
Highland Street. A common access is shown to provide access to the existing
parking spaces adjacent to N. Kimball Avenue for the existing building. The
two existing, non-conforming drives are proposed to be eliminated as part of
this site plan proposal.
N. Kimball Avenue is currently a two lane, undivided thoroughfare.

PATHWAYS
MASTER PLAN: The Pathways Master Plan recommends a 6-foot sidewalk along the west side
of N. Kimball Avenue. The sidewalk is shown on the site plan. A 5-foot
sidewalk is conceptually shown along the north side of E. Highland Street.
WATER & SEWER: A 6-inch water line currently exists along the west side of N. Kimball Avenue
and along the north side of E. Highland Street. The applicant is proposing to

which will discharge into the existing drainage sewer system in N. Kimball
Avenue.

landscaping within the north and west bufferyard areas. 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.

QUESTIONS & DISCUSSION
What will happen to the current building you’ve been in since 1984?
QUESTION:
RESPONSE: It is under contract to be sold for office space for a local company that owns boat marinas.
How many employees work at the current facility? How many will be employed at the new
QUESTIONS:
facility? About how many employees will the marina company have? Will there be a net
increase in the total number of people working on the two properties?
RESPONSE: Masco currently has 35 employees working at its current facility and 45 are to be officed at the new
site. The marina company employs about six (6), so there will be an increased head count of
approximately 15-20 people on the two sites combined.
What material will be used for the roofing?
QUESTION:
RESPONSE: The innermost layer will be 22-gauge steel ribbed paneling like that of an airline hanger. The
outermost layer will be a regular standing seam metal roof with a dark gray matte finish. A layer of
insulation will be added for energy efficiency.
The use of standing seam metal on such a long roof.
CONCERN:
How will the property have vehicular and pedestrian access?
QUESTIONS*:
RESPONSE: The property will have driveway access on to N. Kimball Avenue to the east and access to the south
to E. Highland Street by means of a common access easement through the property to the south (the
current Masco facility). The access to the south will not be built with the current improvements,
and will only be necessitated by the future street improvements on Kimball Ave. Sidewalks will be
placed within the dedicated Rights-of-Way (R.O.W.) of E. Highland Street and N. Kimball Avenue.
Are the building setbacks on Kimball measured from the current R.O.W. or the new, proposed
QUESTION:
R.O.W.?
RESPONSE: Building setbacks along Kimball are measured 30-feet from the new R.O.W.
Future widening and placement of medians on Kimball – property will not have left-turn access
DISCUSSION:
from north-bound Kimball.
Future development of Gateway Church, traffic in the area and the placement of Kirkwood
DISCUSSION:
Boulevard extension.
Is the property on septic or sewer?
QUESTION:
RESPONSE: The property is currently on a septic system, but sewer will be extended to service the site.
How and how often do you dispose of solvents used in your operations?
QUESTION:
RESPONSE: They are stored on site until a service comes and collects them. We have only required the service
about once every five years.
* A summarized combination of questions on the same subject.
