AGENDA ITEM #4, ZA95 -124, CONCEPT PLAN FOR THE SOUTHLAKE CENTER AT KIMBALL
Zoning Administrator Karen Gandy informed the Commission that the Applicant's request is for the Concept
Plan for The Southlake Center at Kimball, being 4.4882 acre tract of land situated in the S. Freeman Survey,
Abstract No. 525, Tracts 6, 6B, and 6C, the G. W. Main Survey Abstract, No. 1098, Tracts 2B, 2C, 2C1 and
Lot 1, Block 1, Carrick Press Addition as recorded in Cabinet A, Page 385, Plat Records, Tarrant County,
Texas. The property is located at the southeast corner of South Kimball Avenue and East Southlake
Boulevard (F.M. 1709). The current zoning is "C -3" General Commercial District. The Land Use Category
is Mixed Use /75 Ldn Contour. The Corridor Designation is Retail Commercial. The property owner is
Royal Properties; and the request is being submitted by the Applicant, Hodges & Associates. The property
is located in SPIN Neighborhood #7. Eleven (11) written notices were sent to property owners within the
200 feet notification area, and the Staff has received one (1) written response in favor of the plan. The
western portion of this project had been previously reviewed in case, ZA95 -104. (informational comment:
REGULAR PLANNING AND ZONING MEETING
JANUARY 4, 1996, MINUTES
PAGE 3
ZA95 -104 was denied at City Council on November 7, 1995 with a 5 -0 -1 vote)
Vice - Chairman Johnson asked Staff to clarify items #6F (provide a common access easement for the
driveway entrances and drive lanes connecting each pad site) and #6G (provide a common access easement
from the northeasterly drive lane of the east pad site stubbing into the west line of the Robert George Lyford
tract) on the staff review letter. Director Greg Last stated that a common access easement will be needed
for the tract to the east, and the two sites will need to have a common access driveway entrance.
Commissioner Potter asked Staff to address the driveway entrances and how they are not in compliance with
the Driveway Ordinance No. 634. Director Greg Last stated that the west driveway entrance is 300 feet
from the right -of -way on South Kimball Avenue and the requirement set forth by the City is a minimum
spacing of 500 feet. He also added that the east driveway entrance is 275 feet to the center; it should have
a 250 feet spacing and be designated as a right - in/right -out only driveway. Commissioner Potter asked Staff
if the driveway entrance on South Kimball Avenue is in compliance with Driveway Ordinance No. 634.
Director Greg Last stated that it is in compliance. Commissioner Potter asked Staff about the 75 feet
driveway throat depth requirement set forth in the Driveway Ordinance No. 634 with the 50 feet driveway
throat depth provided by the Applicant. Director Greg Last stated that the proposed driveway throat depth
is from the right -of -way to the end of the island where the lots come in. He added that it is calculated based
on the number of parking spaces that goes to the driveway entrance.
Gary DeVleer (Hodges & Associates), 13642 Omega, Dallas, Texas 75244 -4514, and Randy Perry (Royal
Properties) represented this item. Mr. DeVleer commented on the following comments:
1) this is a revised submittal after the previous case submittal, ZA95 -104, was denied by City Council;
2) City Council expressed there desire to look at a larger piece of land in this tract; therefore, the Owner
consolidated all of the various tracts into one submittal;
3) requested to delete item #3B (provide a 5' Type `A' Bufferyard along the east line of the bank/retail site,
and along the west line of the travel agency site) due to the common driveway;
4) requested to delete item #3C (provide the required bufferyards along the interior lot lines of the site) for
parking spaces would be lost and this would not benefit the proposal;
5) a travel agency is proposed for the building to the eastern-most portion of the property;
6) the west driveway entrance has been moved to the east and is now 300 feet from the intersection, and
the east driveway entrance is 275 feet from the west driveway which addresses items, #6A (Provide the
distance to the nearest existing driveway entrance centerline south along east line South Kimball Avenue
if less than 250' for the proposed driveway entrance onto South Kimball Avenue.), #6C (Provide
driveway entrance spacing along East Southlake Boulevard (F.M. 1709) according to the requirements
of the Driveway Ordinance No. 634.), and #6D (Provide driveway entrance throat depths for traffic
stacking in accordance with the Driveway Ordinance No. 634.);
Commissioner Potter asked Mr. DeVleer why he did not propose the 500 feet spacing requirement for
the west driveway entrance since this was a major issue in the previous case. Mr. DeVleer stated that
the property would have only one driveway onto East Southlake Boulevard (F.M. 1709) if the 500 feet
REGULAR PLANNING AND ZONING MEETING
JANUARY 4, 1996, MINUTES
PAGE 4
spacing requirement was proposed. He added that the majority of traffic flow will be coming from East
Southlake Boulevard (F.M. 1709), and the one driveway would only create internal traffic stacking
problems for the four proposed buildings.
Vice - Chairman Johnson asked Mr. DeVleer if the two driveways along East Southlake Boulevard (F.M.
1709) will have full access. Mr. DeVleer stated a request for full access is proposed for the two
driveway entrances.
7) the proposed number of parking spaces is more than the required amount for the site;
8) cross access easements are proposed at all locations where they cross property lines including the
property to the east; and
9) the plan submitted tonight at the meeting is different than the previous submittal having the driveway
around the perimeter of the eastern-most building deleted and replaced with landscaping due to the
recent development with the travel agency; and requested for the Commission to act upon the plan
submitted tonight.
Commissioner Potter asked Staff if they had calculated the number of parking spaces that will be required
for the property. Director Greg Last stated that the evaluation of the adequacy of parking is not reviewed
at the Concept Plan phase; the Applicant needs to provide the final uses of the buildings for the Staff to do
the calculation on the parking. He added that this issue will be addressed on the Site Plan for each individual
site.
Chairman Wright opened the public hearing.
Mrs. Howard E. Carr, 311 South Kimball Avenue, Southlake, Texas 76092, commented that her land, Tract
2A, is immediately south of the proposal. She added that her concern is with the property being adjacent
to her working farm that consists of numerous animals. She would approve the plan, if the contractor of the
proposed development would include a 5 foot solid wall along the property line that will be adjacent to her
property.
Phillip Bressinck (a commercial real estate broker), 200 Swallow Drive, Southlake, Texas 76092,
commented on the following comments:
1) that he was present to represent R. Lyford who owns Tract 2A3A1 immediately east of the proposal
2) the only major concern of the plan is how their proposed east driveway entrance will affect the
development of Mr. Lyford's property and their driveway proposal
a. Mr. Lyford has 370 feet of frontage property onto East Southlake Boulevard (F.M. 1709)
b. he requested a stub -out for a common access easement to be shared among the adjacent properties.
Director Greg Last commented that the requirements for Mr. Lyford's driveway will depend upon the
requirements established for The Southlake Center at Kimball's driveways, if approved. He added that on
full access driveway entrances, the centered spacing is 500 feet; and on right - in/right -out driveway
REGULAR PLANNING AND ZONING MEETING
JANUARY 4, 1996, MINUTES
PAGE 5
entrances, the centered spacing is 250. Commissioner Potter asked Staff if the Lyford Tract could have a
full access driveway entrance. Director Greg Last stated that it could be possible, if The Southlake Center
at Kimball's west driveway entrance be designated as full access and the east driveway entrance be
designated as right - in/right -out only. He added that the Lyford Tract's full access driveway would be
located on the northeast portion.
Commissioner Schroetke asked who was the property owner east of the Lyford Tract. Mr. Bressinck stated
that the property is owned by the City of Southlake.
Chairman Wright closed the public hearing.
Commission discussion:
Vice - Chairman Johnson commented that he would like for the east driveway entrance to be located at the
property line shared with the property to the east, and be designated as right - in/right -out; and moving the
west full access driveway entrance more to the east away from the intersection.
The Commission had a lengthy discussion on the reoccuring problems Applicants are facing trying to meet
the minimum 500 feet spacing requirement set forth in the Driveway Ordinance No. 634.
Chairman Wright asked Mr. Perry if he wanted to address Mrs. Carr's concern, and asked him if he was
prepared to provide a 5 foot solid fence. Steve Cockrel with the Travel Agency recommended putting up
thorn bushes between the properties. Mr. DeVleer stated that the Applicant is willing to build a fence along
the entire length of the two lots when they develop this property.
Commissioner Potter asked Staff if a "Thoroughfare Plan traffic analysis" is needed. Director Greg Last
stated that this development's traffic volume and movements are not as extensive; therefore, a TIA (Traffic
Impact Analysis) is not required.
Vice - Chairman Johnson commented on his concern with the bufferyard requirement being between the two
buildings east of the property and in the driveway, and asked Staff about screening requirements in similar
situations that were approved where the bufferyards were located in the driveway. Director Greg Last stated
the City requires a common access driveway on property lines in the same place bufferyards are required.
He added that Albertsons proposed a full length driveway which waived the bufferyard. Commissioner
Hobbs asked Staff the distance between the eastern -most building (proposed travel agency) and the building
immediately to the west. Director Greg Last stated that the distance is 30 feet with 15 foot side yard
setbacks. He added that even though the proposed travel agency building has been moved more to the east,
it did not affect the bufferyard requirement. Vice - Chairman Johnson commented that there is a need for the
driveway and, therefore, the Commission could look into deleting the required bufferyard.
Chairman Wright and Vice - Chairman Johnson commented that they were agreeable to leaving the west
REGULAR PLANNING AND ZONING MEETING
JANUARY 4, 1996, MINUTES
PAGE 6
driveway entrance as its present proposed location, however, the east driveway entrance should be moved
to the east , being common access with the property to the east, and designated as right - in/right -out. Vice -
Chairman Johnson added that the screening on the south property line should be required to address the
concerns presented at the public hearing.
Commissioner Schroetke asked Staff if a common access easement and a common access driveway entrance
along South Kimball Avenue was proposed with the proposed Primrose School. Director Greg Last stated
that this issue has been reviewed and the Staff did not recommend a common access easement or a common
access driveway with the proposed Primrose School in the staff review letter due to the drastic grade
separation and the different uses between the properties (one being a daycare and the other being retail).
Commissioner Schroetke asked Staff if the distance between the two proposed developments' driveway
entrances on to South Kimball Avenue will be sufficient. Director Greg Last stated that the spacing distance
is 140 feet, and given the position of the site, this will probably be the best proposal unless the two
properties have a common access driveway. He added that this would not be a good recommendation due
to the two properties' requested uses.
Commissioner Potter and Commissioner Schroetke commented on their displeasure of the Applicant not
meeting the minimum 500 feet spacing requirement from the east right -of -way line of South Kimball
Avenue.
Motion was made to approve ZA95 -124, Concept Plan for The Southlake Center at Kimball, subject to Plan
Review Letter No. 1 dated December 29, 1995, amended as follows:
1) deleting the bufferyard on the west line of the travel agency site and along the east line of the bank/retail
site in items #3B and #3C;
2) west driveway entrance be shown as the diagram with full access in reference to item #6;
3) east driveway entrance be moved to be a common access driveway that will be shared with the property
to the east and be designated as right - in/right -out and address the driveway throat depth at Site Plan;
4) common access easement across the front of the four properties, sharing those driveways;
5) at the Applicant's agreement, provide a 6 foot wooden fence along the south property line that will be
adjacent to the Carr property; and
6) approval is in reference to the submittal presented showing additional landscaping to the east of the
eastern-most building (travel agency site) and south of the bank/retail building.

AGENDA ITEM #5, ZA95 -125, CONCEPT PLAN FOR PRIMROSE SCHOOL
Zoning Administrator Karen Gandy informed the Commission that the Applicant's request is for the Concept
Plan for Primrose School, being 1.7892 acre tract of land situated in the G. W. Main Survey, Abstract No.
1098, Tract 2E. The property is located on the east side, approximately 300 feet south of the intersection
of South Kimball Avenue and East Southlake Boulevard (F.M. 1709). The current zoning is "C -2" Local
Retail Commercial District. The Land Use Category is Mixed Use /75 Ldn Contour. The Corridor Land Use
is Retail Commercial. The property owner is Frank Cangelosi; and the request is being submitted by the
Applicant, Patrick Saucedo. The property is located in SPIN Neighborhood #7. Five (5) written notices
were sent to property owners within the 200 feet notification area, and the Staff has received two (2) (one
opposed and one in favor) of the plan. The proposal will have circular drives which will enhance the ability
to handle the continual traffic flow from the development. The single use for the property is for a school.
Commissioner Potter asked Staff for clarification on the "C -2" Local Retail Commercial District and the
requested use for a school. Zoning Administrator Karen Gandy pointed out that the proposal was for a
daycare.
Frank and Nancy Cangelosi (Cangelosi Enterprises), 305 West Chapel Downs, Southlake, Texas 76092,
Patrick Saucedo (A.G.I., Inc.) 1521 N. Cooper, Arlington, Texas 76011, and Gary Jackson (representing
Dottie Henderson, Civil Engineer), 1421 McCoy, Dallas, represented this item.
Mrs. Cangelosi commented on the following items:
1) she has an educational background;
2) Primrose Schools began in Atlanta, GA in 1982 as a private pre - school and in 1989, began franchising
as educational child care;
3) there are three existing schools in Bedford, Plano, and Coppell;
4) there are school proposals in Keller, Flower Mound, an additional one in Arlington, and an additional
one in Plano; and
5) there is strong need for child care in Southlake.
Mr. Saucedo commented on the following items:
1) A.G.I., Inc. has been the architect for Primrose Schools for the last two years;
2) Primrose Schools put safety as a high priority,
3) all building codes, regulations, and ordinances set forth by the City will be met or exceeded;

5) presented visual aids of the elevation of the proposed project;
6) there will be a 10 foot bufferyard along the east property line;
7) there will be a 5 foot bufferyard along the north property line;
8) there will be a 5 foot black vinyl coated chain -link fence around the perimeters of the
playground;
9) there will be a 10 foot bufferyard along the south property line along with a "6 foot high
wood screen ";
10) the proposed driveway will be at the same location of the existing driveway;
11) the location of the parking lot was determined on the basis of saving the existing trees which will serve
as a natural buffer between the property and the adjacent residential property.
Vice - Chairman Johnson asked Mr. Saucedo if he had a chance to hear the last agenda item discussion that
addressed Mrs. Carr's concern with her land being adjacent to commercial property, and asked if he would
object to building a solid fence along the property line that is adjacent to Mrs. Carr's property. Mr. Saucedo
stated that he would comply.
Commissioner Potter asked Mrs. Cangelosi if the daycare provided education for children up to five years
of age. Mrs. Cangelosi stated that the daycare provides education for children up to the pre -K age,
additionally, the facility will provide before and after school care for children up to twelve years of age.
Commissioner Arnold asked Mrs. Cangelosi if the facility has vehicles to transport the children to and from
school. Mrs. Cangelosi stated that the facility would provide this necessity.
Chairman Wright opened the public hearing.
Mrs. Howard E. Carr, 311 S. Kimball Avenue, Southlake, Texas 76092, commented on her concern for the
need of a solid fence between her property and the property proposed due to the live animals on her land.
Commissioner Potter asked Mrs. Cangelosi if she had a concern with the property being adjacent to property
zoned in a "C -3" General Commercial District. Mrs. Cangelosi stated that it was not much of a concern;
the two properties are at different elevations, and there will be a natural buffer of trees that will separate the
two properties.
Commissioner Potter asked Mrs. Cangelosi if there was a heavy traffic flow at certain times in the day. Mrs.
Cangelosi stated that a traffic analysis was completed at the Primrose Schools in Atlanta that reflected a
staggered traffic flow with no more than seventy -five cars coming and going at different times in the day.
Vice - Chairman Johnson asked Mrs. Cangelosi how many children would the school accommodate if the
proposed expansion is built. Mrs. Cangelosi stated that it would accommodate 170 students and without
the expansion, it would accommodate 130 students.

Chairman Wright closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Potter asked Staff if the Applicant met the driveway spacing requirement. Director Greg Last
stated that this issue needs to be addressed by either approving it as shown or specifying the driveway
entrance in another location. Chairman Wright and Vice - Chairman Johnson commented that the driveway
entrance appeared to be in as good a location as the Applicant could propose. Commissioner Potter asked
Staff the distance of the driveway and The Southlake Center at Kimball's driveway. Director Greg Last
stated that the spacing distance is 140 feet. Commissioner Potter commented that the requirement is 250
feet. Vice - Chairman Johnson commented that if the 250 feet spacing requirement was enforced, the existing
trees would be removed. Commissioner Schroetke commented that it should be located as far as possible
from the adjacent residential property.
Commissioner Hobbs commented that there should be a higher fence in the play area next to the commercial
property taking into consideration of the safety for the children. Mr. Cangelosi stated that Primrose Schools
have tested the chain -link fence for safety. He added that there will be a 5' bufferyard with the chain -link
fence and a 6 foot wood fence would be located along the south property line of the play area.
Chairman Wright asked the Applicant if there were any objections to a 6 foot stockade fence along the north
property line, the length of the play area, and then come inside with the 5' chain -link fence. Mrs. Cangelosi
stated that if it is necessary she would comply, however, she did not wish to put two fences in the vicinity.
Mrs. Cangelosi commented that today's daycare practices are enforcing the placement of a chain -link fence
in the play area for the parent's view. She added that the schools in Atlanta are located one lot off of a major
traffic flow. Commissioner Potter commented on his displeasure of requesting a stockade fence in this
location.
Mr. Cangelosi stated that Mrs. Carr's request will be applied.
Motion was made to approve ZA95 -125, Concept Plan for Primrose School, subject to Plan Review
Summary No. 1 dated December 29, 1995, amended as follows:
1) stipulating that the north, east, and south property lines have a wood fence required in the F1 Bufferyard
