MINUTES

dated September 1, 1995 from Karen Gandy, Zoning Administrator. Mrs. Gandy confirmed that the
Land Use Category for this property is "Industrial."
Paul Spain (Terra Land Development Company), 920 S. Peytonville Avenue, Southlake, Texas
76092, was present to represent this item.
Mr. Spain informed the Commission that the proposed entrance for the development will be at the
intersection of Bristol Place and South Kimball Avenue. Bristol Place will extend to the West and

designation; however, the area West of this property had been rezoned last year from an industrial
district to a residential district. Chairman Wright commented that when the property to the West

Commission discussion:
Vice - Chairman Johnson will oppose this case due to the residential property being surrounded by
industrial districts to the north, east, and south of it. To rezone this property from an industrial to
residential district will only create problems in the future.
Commissioner Potter asked the Staff what was south of the adjacent property. Commissioner Hobbs
responded that it was a baseball field. Planner Tom Elgin commented that due South there is a strip
of land which is a vacant lot and South of that is Lot 7R1 which is the baseball field owned by

Chairman Wright reminded the Commission that this was a rezoning case and the drainage issue
should be addressed in the platting phase of the development and not at the zoning phase.
Jim Briscoe (Briscoe Clark), 8300 Douglas Avenue, Suite 800, Dallas, Texas 75225, was present
to represent this item.
Mr. Briscoe made the following comments to the Commission:
1) minimum size lot will be 20,000 square feet,
2) lots bordering Woodland Heights will have a minimum size lot of 30,000 square feet,
3) the next tier of lots will have an average lot size of 22,500 square feet and will serve

4) proposed a boulevard entry with heavy landscaping,

6) prices of the homes will be $275,000- 325,000, and
7) will comply with the comments in the Staff letter dated September 1, 1995 and will
process an amended plat.
Commissioner Potter asked Mr. Briscoe why he was proposing 20,000 square foot lots instead of
the 1 acre lots which are adjacent to the development; furthermore, the Land Use Plan category is
low - density for that area. Mr. Briscoe commented that it would not be feasible to plat a development
of one acre lots due to the following factors: 1) cost of the development, 2) cost of the land, and 3)
surrounding nonresidential zoning districts in the area.
Vice - Chairman Johnson reminded Mr. Briscoe that the avigation easement applies to this property
and there were certain construction details that would be enforced. Mr. Briscoe commented that he
was aware of this situation.
Chairman Wright opened the public hearing.
C. S. Johnson, 495 S. Kimball Avenue, Southlake, Texas 76092, is in favor of the proposal with the
following reservations: 1) South Kimball Avenue is too narrow for heavy traffic. He recommended

widening the road in the future; 2) recommended subdued entrance lighting; 3) concerned with the
fence requirement; and 4) agreed that the entrance was at the safest location.
Sonny James, 305 S. Kimball Avenue, Southlake, Texas 76092, is in favor of the use of the land
proposed. However, he would like to see housing that is more compatible with the housing
established around the proposed development. He is concerned with the green area around Kimball
Avenue after it is widened. Chairman Wright commented that the applicant's Concept Plan shows
additional right -of -way for South Kimball Avenue.
Carlos Dorris, 213 Eastwood Drive, Southlake, Texas 76092, is opposed to the Concept Plan, lot
size, and the drainage system. However, he is not opposed to a residential district for the area. He
is concerned with the fencing on the west side of the property.
Mr. Briscoe commented to the Commission on the following: 1) the location of the entrance is at
the safest entrance feasible; 2) lighting will be very subdued; 3) screening walls will be 6 -foot
masonry or a combination of masonry with some wrought -iron accompanied with heavy
landscaping; 4) will require homebuilders or homeowners to build 6 foot screening fences along the
south boundary of the development to help screen the development from the ostrich farm to the
South; 5) the drainage will be routed into the street and better defined; and 6) the west boundary
will have a minimum of 450 -500 feet between the dwellings in Woodland Heights and the new
residences. Chairman Wright asked Mr. Briscoe what type of fencing would be required on the west
boundary. Mr. Briscoe stated that it will be required for the homebuilder to build a 6 -foot fence.
Chairman Wright asked Mr. Briscoe what is the minimum house size. Mr. Briscoe commented
stated that it probably would be 2,200 square feet. Carlos Dorris asked Mr. Briscoe if he could put
a deed restriction on the property requiring a minimum 2,200 square feet on the house size. Mr.
Briscoe commented that he could do this.
George Thayer, 217 Eastwood Drive, Southlake, Texas 76092, is concerned with the lot size and
that there is no transition from their larger size lots to the development's smaller size lots . He is
concerned with the drainage and how they will fix the problem. He recommended larger lots which
could reduce the drainage problem and requested a better lot layout of the proposed development.
Corrinne Tuttle, 219 Eastwood Drive, Southlake, Texas 76092, is mainly concerned with the
drainage problem and the transition from the larger surrounding lots to the development's smaller
lot size.
Ed Givens (a realtor representing Dwaine and Lillie Petty) is in favor of the proposed development.
John Logan, 221 Eastwood Drive, Southlake, Texas 76092, supports a residential community behind
his property. He is concerned with the drainage flow and requested larger lot sizes for the
development.

Chairman Wright closed the public hearing.
Commission discussion:
Commissioner Potter is opposed to the proposed development for the following reasons: 1) the
Land Use Plan specifies this area to have low density residential and the development proposes
higher density; 2) surrounding nonresidential zoning; 3) increased traffic on South Kimball Avenue;
3) residents to the West are opposed; 4) concerned with the ostrich farm to the South; and 5) the
area is in the "65 LDN Noise Zone."
Chairman Wright stated that this property has been presented before the Planning and Zoning
Commission on various occasions for commercial uses, and the proposal has been denied. Presently,
it is proposed to be a residential district that will have 400 -500 feet of distance between the
development and the residents to the West. He commented that the drainage issue will be addressed
in the platting phase of the development process. He is in favor of the proposal with the fencing and
the house size requirements set forth tonight by Mr. Briscoe.
Vice - Chairman Johnson is opposed to the development because it is not in compliance with the Land
Use Plan and the surrounding "SF -1A" District to the East and West.
Commissioner Murphy and Chairman Wright asked if the applicant could provide a better transition
on the west side with bigger lots. Mr. Briscoe stated that the development could provide one -acre
lots on the west boundary by taking out two lots on that tier.
Motion was made to disapprove ZA95 -83, Rezoning and Concept Plan for Meadow Ridge Estates.
Motion: Potter
Second: Johnson
Ayes: Potter and Johnson

Vice - Chairman Johnson requested for a recess.
Chairman Wright called for a recess at 9:00 p.m.

lots east of those along the western boundary.

Common Area #2 to Common Area #1 and add the lot/block designation "Lot 14, Block 1. "needed
to be modified. The applicant needs to state if the common area will be lotted or in the right -of -way.
Commissioner Murphy asked the Staff about item #5 on the Plat Review Summary. Ms. Gandy
commented that if the common area is exclusive of the right -of -way, then it should be designated
as a lot and block; and item #5 should be deleted.
Commissioner Potter asked about the drainage issue with Mr. Baker's property. Engineer Ron
Harper commented that Mr. Baker platted a drainage easement that should have handled the flows
from this area and that Mr. Baker is obligated to accept the flow through the drainage easement.
Vice - Chairman Johnson commented that some of the drainage issues are internal to Mr. Baker's
property.
Dick Perkins (Teague Nall and Perkins, Inc.), 220 W. Irving Blvd., Suite #2, Irving, Texas 75060,
was present to represent this item.
Mr. Perkins commented that he will work with Mr. Baker to alleviate some of Mr. Baker's drainage
concerns by regrading a portion of the drainage easement through Mr. Baker's property to 75 -100
feet of his existing driveway, reconstruct his culverts under his driveway, replace 3 of the 12"
diameter corrugated metal pipe culverts with 3 27" diameter concrete pipe culverts, and rebuild 30-
40 feet of his driveway.
Mr. Perkins commented that he would like to leave the common area as a common area or leave it

maintaining it.
Zoning Administrator Karen Gandy commented that the common area will need to be pulled back
so that no portion of the common area will be in the right -of -way. Mr. Perkins commented that the
reason for the location is to save three large oak trees. Engineer Ron Harper commented that the
City is concerned with the liability of the maintained area. Planner Tom Elgin stated that the
common area should be exclusive of the right -of -way in the entry and designated as a lot and block.
Mr. Perkins asked the Staff that if he did designate that area as a common area, would the curb
would have to be pulled 10 feet back. Engineer Ron Harper commented that it will have to be pulled
back 9.5 -10 feet from the edge of the pavement. Vice - Chairman Johnson asked the Staff about the
site triangle at this location. Engineer Ron Harper stated that it will be looked at during the

spillway from Grapevine Lake is clearly required by the Corp of Engineers that no habitual dwelling
can be constructed, however, it does not prevent commercial uses in the area. Mr. Vest commented
that the City specifies a drainage easement for property in the 100 -year flood plain. This area which
has the flood plain and the flowage easement will not have commercial structures constructed on
them.
Chairman Wright opened the public hearing.
No discussion from the audience.
Chairman Wright closed the public hearing.
Commission discussion:
Commissioners Potter and Schreotke stated that they had a problem with the "MF -2" use in this area.
Commissioner Schroetke asked if the applicant would reconsider a "MF -1" use instead of "MF -2"
use in the ancillary use area by taking into consideration the density and the number of units
constructed. Mr. Kuhlman commented that the "MF -2" use area could be limited to 6.7 acres.
Commissioner Hobbs asked Mr. Kuhlman if 8 units per acre would work in this area. Mr. Kuhlman
stated that he had no problem with this request.
Motion was made to approve ZA95 -74, Rezoning and Concept Plan for Solana (Non- Residential)
subject to Plan Review Summary dated September 1, 1995 with the following requirements: 1)
restricting the ancillary uses to approximately 6.7 acres as shown on the amended Concept Plan
(being the northern half of the ancillary area as shown), 2) restricting the density of "MF -2"
development to 8 units per acre, and 3) the configuration of the open space be labelled as illustrated
to the Commission tonight.

meeting.
Agenda Item #4. ZA95 -77. Rezoning and Site Plan for Stacy Furniture Warehouse
Zoning Administrator Karen Gandy informed the Commission that the applicant's request is for the
Rezoning and Site Plan for Stacy Furniture Warehouse, being 5.66 acres legally described as Block
B, Lot 2, Commerce Business Park. The property is located 280 Commerce Street, approximately
180' South of East Southlake Blvd. (F.M. 1709). The current zoning is "I -1" Light Industrial
District. The requested zoning is "S -P -1" Detailed Site Plan District to allow "I -1" Light Industrial
uses as set forth in Ordinance No. 480, Section 26 and the retail sale of furniture. The owner and
applicant is James R. Stacy d /b /a Stacy Furniture Warehouse. Four written notices were sent out
to property owners within the 200 feet notification area, and the Staff has received one written
response (in favor) within the notification area. The timing of the submittal on July 21, 1995 was
prior to the adoption of the Corridor Study.
Vice - Chairman Johnson asked the Staff how the parking requirement was determined when mixed
uses were proposed. Zoning Administrator Karen Gandy commented that the warehouse area was
calculated at a 1 : 1,000 ratio, the retail area was calculated at a 1 : 400 ratio, and the remaining
office area was calculated at a 1 : 300 ratio. Commissioner Potter asked the Staff how the existing
structure relates to the existing parking area. Zoning Administrator Karen Gandy commented that
if you take the area as it is being used today (prior to the new construction), the office area will be
calculated as 8 spaces for the first 1,000 and at a 1 : 300 ratio for the remaining 5,000 square feet
which will be 25 for the office related use; the balance of the remaining building (59,500 s.f. and
8,400 s.f.) which is being used for retail would be calculated at a 1 : 400 ratio, for a total of 195
spaces being required based on the established use. The Planning Technician counted 156 parking
spaces on the ground. Planner Tom Elgin stated that the proposed area is being doubled and the
parking area is being increased to 40 -50 %.

Vice - Chairman Johnson asked the Staff what was the west bufferyard. Zoning Administrator
Karen Gandy commented that it was "F -1," and that the existing fence is chain -link.
Rick Stacy (Stacy's Furniture), 1000 W. Southlake Boulevard, Southlake, Texas 76092, was present
to represent this item.
Mr. Stacy commented that the proposal is to expand on the existing 75,600 feet building and make
it safer and accommodate customers better . He also stated that the current chain link fence on the
west boundary of the property was built per the adjacent property owner 's request for his horses.
The fence is along the fire lane that was requested by the Fire Marshal.
Zoning Administrator commented to the applicant that what is shown on his plan and what the
Commission and City Council approve is what he is allowed to build, and that if he deviates from
the site plan he would need to come back to the Commission and the City Council for approval of
a revised site plan.
Commissioner Arnold asked why was the applicant requesting a "S -P -1" District. Zoning
Administrator Karen Gandy commented that the applicant would like the flexibility of selling the
property and building to an industrial user as an office /warehouse at a later date.
(Planning and Zoning Meeting, 08- 17 -95, tape 1, section #5253 -7036)
Commissioner Hobbs asked Mr. Stacy what would the building material of the second floor consist
of. Mr. Stacy commented that it would be made out of concrete.
Mr. Stacy commented that the second floor area on the expansion to the North has been decreased
from 30,000 s.f. to 15,000 s.f. and will be used as warehouse space. The expansion at the south end
of the building will be decreased in size to eliminate the need for a sprinkler system as required by
the Fire Code. The mezzanine area is proposed for retail sales, not warehouse space.
Vice - Chairman Johnson asked the applicant if the following is what he is modifying to his proposal:
1) the building to the north has a different configuration, 2) the building to the south has a different
size and the exact location is in question, 3) the mezzanine in the building in the middle of the
development is specified for retail space and not storage.
Chairman Wright called for a recess at 11:20 p.m
Chairman Wright reconvened the meeting at 11:26 p.m.
Chairman Wright suggested that the applicant and the Commission work through the building issues
to eliminate any problems. The building on the south will be two -story with 5,995 square feet on
REGULAR PLANNING AND ZONING AGENDA

each floor, the applicant will look into the location for it. The main existing building needs to
specify what the mezzanine area will be used for. The new building on the north end on the western
portion will have a sprinkler system, 30,000 square feet on the lower floor, and 15,000 square feet
on the second floor. The eastern end of the proposed warehouse on the North will have two floors
with the second floor extending out over the loading dock area; this building will have a sprinkler
system.
Chairman Wright suggested that the applicant and the Commission work through the staff review
letter. Vice - Chairman Johnson recommended that the fence of the "F -1" bufferyard still be required.
The Commission and the applicant agreed to eliminate the west bufferyard and require the applicant
to place all the bufferyard feasible on the south boundary of the property without tearing up any
existing concrete. Delete item #9 (location and screening of the trash dumpsters), Mr. Stacy stated
that he would not screen the dumpster location because it is under the dock and the wall extends past
the dumpster. Delete item #8 (driveway entrance throat lengths do not meet the depth requirements);
the applicant can not meet the requirements because of the existing parking area. When the areas
of use are determined, the number of parking spaces should be at least a certain percentage of the
required number. Commissioner Murphy would like to see a comparison chart of other furniture
stores' parking facilities and how his request correlates with theirs. Vice - Chairman Johnson
requested the Staff to look at other the cities' policies on parking facilities. On item #7 (provide
architectural elevations), the proposed additions will be based on the "I -1" District specifications.
Zoning Administrator Karen Gandy informed the Commission that the tilt wall requested by the
applicant is acceptable.
Vice - Chairman Johnson commented that the parking spaces, interior landscaping, and the building
floor(s) specifications will be addressed at the next meeting.
Chairman Wright opened the public hearing.
No discussion from the audience.
Motion was made to table ZA95 -77, Rezoning and Site Plan for Stacy Furniture Warehouse till
September 21, 1995 and continue the public hearing.
