Item 7A City Council March 6, 2012 Consolidated future land use plan Area Plans and the Land Use Plan Strategic Management System Land Use Plan Public Process 18 Public Land Use Committee Meetings 9 SPIN Meetings 27 City Council/PZ Meetings (18 Public Hearings) Southlake 2030 Web Page Southlake Email Newsletter Social Media Notifications Citywide Land Use Recommendations Remove T-1 and T-2 from the land use map Revise the following designations: Floodplain - Map amendment Medium Density Residential - Eliminated Office Use Mixed Use - Hotel - Acreage Requirement - Buffer Rural Conservation - Acreage Requirement Floodplain The Floodplain category illustrates areas designated by the August 1995 Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) maps as being in the 100-year floodplain. The “floodplain” is an expanse of natural vegetation and wildlife, and should be preserved as natural open area. Within the floodplain is “floodway” that must be kept free of encroachment in order that the 100-year flood may be carried without harmful increases in the height of flood waters. Although it is not to be encouraged, the portion of the floodplain not in the floodway may be reclaimed for development under certain circumstances if in accordance with FEMA regulations. The designated land use for areas of reclaimed floodplain is that of the immediately adjacent land use category. This designation may also include environmentally sensitive areas, habitats, or wetlands that may not be in FEMA identified floodplains. Medium Density Residential The Medium Density Residential category is suitable for any single-family detached residential development. In certain specified locations (see Site Specific Recommendations), limited low intensity office and/or retail uses may be permitted provided that such non-residential uses are compatible with and not intrusive to the adjacent residential uses.  Limited low intensity office and/or retail uses may be permitted provided that the nature of the commerce is to support the surrounding neighborhood and that the area is sufficiently buffered from adjacent residential property. Such non-residential uses must be compatible with and not intrusive to the adjacent residential uses. Other suitable activities are those permitted in the Public Parks/Open Space and Public/Semi-Public categories previously discussed. Mixed Use Purpose To provide an option for large-scale, master-planned, mixed use developments that combine land uses such as office facilities, shopping, dining, parks, and residential uses. This designation is generally applicable on properties larger than approximately 50 acres located along the City’s major roadways. Smaller developments must be designed to be integrated into the context of a larger master-planned development. Mixed Use Scale and Context Criteria – Hotel Uses Hotel uses should be full-service hotels at market-driven locations, primarily in the S.H. 114 Corridor. Full-service, for the purposes of this plan, shall be hotels that include a table-service restaurant within or directly attached to the hotel. Other services or amenities typically included would be bell service and room service, as well as available meeting space. The desire is to approve hotels adequate to support market-driven commerce in the City, paying attention to the product mix such that the hospitality services in the area grow stronger while not cannibalizing existing and future hotels. are complementary to one another. Mixed Use Scale and Context Criteria – General Lower intensity uses, such as residential uses and limited office uses, are encouraged adjacent to existing residential neighborhoods. Rural Conservation The Rural Conservation land use designation allows for rural conservation subdivision development for properties greater than 20 acres and for preserving valuable open space in perpetuity through conservation easements. Landowners of property designated Rural Conservation may participate in the Southlake Conservation and Development Program, which promotes open space protection by allowing landowners to sell the development rights associated with their property.

Public/Semi-Public to Public Parks/Open Space Industrial to Public/Semi-Public Industrial to Mixed Use Site Specific for 4 and 4a: Preserve all or a large portion of the existing tree buffer on the west side of the properties to help buffer uses from residential properties to the west. The types of uses should transition from higher intensity uses near S.H. 26 to lower intensity uses (i.e. office or single-family homes) adjacent to residential uses to the west and north.
