Recommend protection of the existing tree stand along the north side of Crooked Lane across from Whispering Woods Circle and within the 75’ LDN as a buffer from any developing office
to residential properties.

Consider the creation of a new 60’ ROW 2-lane divided collector (C2D) with medians and left-turn/stacking lanes at intersections in the Mobility Plan to apply to the Village Center Extension
roadway.
Any new commercial driveway along Crooked Lane should be limited to the first 500 feet from Nolen Drive.

Planning & Zoning Commission Action
Planning & Zoning Commission
July 21, 2011; Approved (7-0) with everything being the same except for a change from the Low Density Residential cluster on the north of Crooked Lane and the Office Commercial designations
in the presentation be changed to Mixed Use. Aside from that change, the remainder of the draft be accepted as presented. The reason for this is, per our discussion this evening, to
provide the greatest market flexibility of the future property development as it may present in the future.
City Council Action
City Council – 1st Reading
August 16, 2011; Approved (7-0), not accepting the Planning & Zoning’s recommendation, but changing the “Office Commercial” area to “Mixed Use” and leaving the existing recommendation
for Low Density Residential Cluster to the southwest as is; understanding that staff will be coming back with recommendations for the possibility of mixed use development in the Low
Density Residential area north of Crooked Lane if master planned.
Low Density Residential
Suitable for any single-family detached residential
Net density of 1 dwelling unit per acre
Office Commercial
Exclusive use of office & limited office-related activities
General professional and business offices of high quality and appearance
Serves as a transition between established residential, major roadways, and retail
Retail Commercial
Lower- to medium-intensity commercial category
Neighborhood-type retail
Compatible with adjacent single-family residential uses
In areas where Retail Commercial is directly adjacent to residential, should be office activities
Transition 1
provide an alternative tool to allow flexibility in the development of “transition” sites
intended to consist of primarily non-residential uses
Rural Conservation Option
Rural Conservation
intended to protect and preserve a portion of Southlake’s natural environment and rural character
provide flexibility in design to promote environmentally sensitive and efficient residential development
Mixed Use Designation
Large-scale (50+ acres), master-planned mixed use developments
Located along City’s major roadways
Special attention to the design and transition between different uses
The Mixed Use designation is intended for medium- to higher-intensity office buildings, hotels, commercial activities, retail centers, and residential uses. Nuisance-free, wholly enclosed
light manufacturing and assembly uses that have no outdoor storage are permitted if designed to be compatible with adjacent uses. Other suitable activities are those permitted in the
Public Parks/Open Space, Public/Semi-Public, Low Density Residential, Medium Density Residential, Retail Commercial, and Office Commercial categories.
