CASE NO: ZA06 -123
P ROJECT: Preliminary Plat for The Gardens at Stratfort Parc
REQUEST: On behalf of Richard Reutlinger, Terra Land Management is requesting approval of a
preliminary plat on approximately 13.95 acres. The plan proposes 14 single family
residential lots on approximately 11.77 acres. The remaining 2.18 acres will maintain
the existing "C -2" zoning for retail and office development.
The following variances are being requested:
• Rear Lot Width — A minimum rear lot width of 125 ft is required adjacent to platted
lots zoned for one -acre or larger or adjacent to property designated as `low density
residential'. The applicant is requesting relief from this regulation (Lots 5 through
13).
• Buffer Lots — A minimum 30,000 square foot lots shall be required on all lots
adjacent to platted property zoned "SF -1" or "RE ". The applicant is requesting
relief from this regulation. (Lots 7,8,10,11)
• Side Yard Setback Adjacent to a Street — A reduction to a 15' side yard setback
adjacent to Londonberry for Lot 1 is requested. This reduction is permitted with
Planning and Zoning Commission or City Council approval.
• Also, the applicant requests relief from staff's recommendation to provide an
additional point of street access into the southern boundary of the site.
ACTION NEEDED: Consider preliminary plat approval

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
OWNER: Richard Reutlinger
APPLICANT: Terra Land Management
PROPERTY SITUATION: 425 W. Southlake Boulevard
LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Tract 3A, H. Granberry Survey, Abstract No. 581
LAND USE CATEGORY: Office Commercial and Medium Density Residential
CURRENT ZONING: "C -2" Local Retail Commercial District
PROPOSED ZONING: "C -2" Local Retail Commercial District and "SF -20A" Single Family
Residential District
HISTORY: The property was zoned "C -2" Local Retail Commercial District when the city
adopted Zoning Ordinance No. 480.
TRANSPORTATION
ASSESSMENT: Existinz Area Roadway Network
The primary entrance to the Neighborhood will be through a connection to
Londonberry Terrace (Stratfort Parc subdivision). A connection to Caddo
Lake Drive (Lake Crest subdivision) is also proposed as a secondary entry.
Staff is recommending a street connection to future development to the south of
the site.
Mobility and Master Thoroughfare Plan
The streets for the proposed development and the existing connecting streets
for adjacent neighborhoods do not appear on the Mobility and Master
Thoroughfare Plan.
Traffic Analysis
The concept plan shows a street stub out to Caddo Lake Drive but not a
connection. It is recommended that connection to Caddo Lake Drive be
constructed to provide two points of vehicle access. If not, the proposed
concept plan is in violation of the maximum cul -de -sac length as regulated by
the Subdivision Ordinance.
Case No. Attachment A
ZA 06 -123 Page 1

*VTPD = Vehicle Trips Per Day
WATER & SEWER: Water: There is an existing 8 -inch water line in Caddo Lake Drive to the west
and an 8 -inch water line to the east in the Stratfort Parc Subdivision.
Sanitary Sewer: There is an existing 10 -inch sanitary sewer along the north
property line of the existing tract and an 8 -inch sanitary sewer along a portion
of the south property line which should serve a majority of the lots. An 8 -inch
sanitary sewer will also be required to be extended from the existing Stratfort
Parc subdivision to serve the remaining lots.
TREE PRESERVATION: The submitted Tree Preservation Plan meets the criteria required to be shown
for the submittal of a Concept Plan. "Quality" trees intended to be preserved
are shown as dark green, other smaller and or "Marginal' trees shown to be
preserved are colored light green, while trees that will most likely be removed
or altered are shown in light green with red hatching. Trees shown to be
removed are located within the proposed right -of -way and estimated locations
of the building pads.
The proposed Concept Plan does not show the applicants intent to construct
detention/retention ponds on the site of the proposed open spaces. Although the
submitted tree survey does not show existing trees within the low areas of the
creek that runs through the property, there is actually a wide variety of small to
medium size trees within the creek area. This area will most likely need to be
selectively thinned to remove unwanted trees such as Honey Locust and Black
Willow that could cause a future problem with the drainage as they mature.

Underlying Land Use Designation

Case No.
ZA 06 -123
Attachment A
Page 1
The underlying land use designation is Medium Density Residential on the site.
The requested "SF -20X" zoning is consistent with the underlying Medium
Density Residential designation on the property.
Mobility Plan & Trail Plan Recommendations
Enhance mobility by providing pedestrian, bicycle, and automotive connectivity
within the development and to adjoining developments. The proposed
development includes sidewalks throughout. The development provides
pedestrian and automotive connectivity to the existing neighborhoods to the
east and west. The proposed trails will also link to the trail on Southlake Blvd.
Automotive connectivity to future development to the south is recommended.
Environmental Resource Protection Recommendations
o Protect and enhance critical environmental and natural features, with
particular emphasis on trees and floodplains. Specifically, the
Environmental Resource Protection Map below identifiespriority areas for
protection:
L �� r 1�
0
LEGEND
EXISTING TREE COVER
EXISTING 100 -YEAR FLOOD PLAIN
TREE COVER/OPEN SPACE TO BE PRESERVED WHERE APPROPRIATE
EXISTING CREEKS & WATER BODIES
• The Tree Preservation Plan shows that there are very few trees along
the eastern boundary of the site adjacent to Stratfort Parc; therefore
the applicant is not proposing any open space preservation in this
area. The applicant is proposing an open space lot along the drainage
channel that runs along the western edge of the property.
o Encourage the use of native and adapted plants in landscaping to reduce
runoff, water consumption, and maintenance costs.
Case No. Attachment A
ZA 06 -123 Page 1
The applicant has proposed a palette of native and adapted
landscaping materials for canopy trees, accent trees, and shrubs in
conjunction with the concept plan.
P &Z ACTION: September 7, 2006; Approved (7 -0) subject to Plat Review Summary No. 1,
dated September 1, 2006, granting the requested vaiances.
STAFF COMMENTS: Attached is Revised Plat Review Summary No. 1, dated September 13, 2006.
