AGENDA ITEM #6. LAND USE PLAN UPDATE:
Planner Chris Carpenter stated that the primary purpose of the Land Use Plan Update was to
combine the recommendations of the Corridor Study with the adopted 1993 Land Use Plan. Mr.
Carpenter stated that there are several people in the audience with comments and concems regarding
specific changes to the Land Use Plan.
Vice-Chairman Murphy opened the public hearing.
Gary Miron, ! 75 Miron Drive, Southlake, Texas, stated his concern regarding the change in the Land
Use Plan designation on his Miron Drive property to Office Commercial. He was concerned it
would change the zoning of his property.
Commissioner Jones stated that this Land Use Plan does not change the existing zoning on a
property.
Mr. Carpenter stated that the zoning regulates the use of a property.
Barbara Lamoreaux, 3650 T. W King Road, Southlake, Texas, stated that she opposes the change
in the Land Use Plan designation on her property from Medium Density Residential to Low Density
Residential. She stated that she had always thought her property would be developed with the
highest use possible. She stated that up until a week before this meeting, she was not even aware of
the possible Land Use Plan designation change on her property; the City has never informed her of
any change.
(Planning and Zoning Commission meeting, 12-18-97, tape 1, section #2088)
Cara White (SPIN #1 Representative) stated that she feels that Lamoreaux property and the
surrounding properties should be Low Density Residential. She stated that the Lamoreauxs do not
live in Southlake and asked the Commission to consider those people who actually live in Southlake
and who will most be affected by the Land Use Plan designation.
Dennis Scifres stated that he is a General Partner of the owner of the Zembrod property which is
being proposed as Office Commercial. He stated that he opposes the change from Mixed Use to
Office Commercial. He stated that for the City to plan for 400,000 s.f. - 500,000 s.f. of office space
south of Southlake Boulevard is not a realistic expectation for the market.
Boyd Dollar, 525 Brooks Court, Southlake, Texas, stated that the primary reason the Lamoreaux
property was originally proposed as Medium Density Residential was because of the trailer park
across White Chapel Boulevard. He stated that now that Bob Jones Park is in that location, it makes
more sense to reduce the Land Use Plan back to Low Density Residential.
Conner Lam, 1280 Post Oak, Southlake, Texas, asked the Commission to change the Land Use Plan
designation on his property to Mixed Use or Retail Commercial, not Low Density Residential. He
stated that his property is on the south side of F.M. 1709 approximately 600' west of Davis

Boulevard. He also asked the Commission to change the designation on the two (2) Brock Drive
lots adjacent and to the west of his lot. He stated that he does not currently own these two (2) lots,
but foresees them developing as Retail Commercial in the furore.
(Planning and Zoning Commission meeting, 12-18-97, tape 1, section #2552)
Dona Schroetke, 211 Eastwood Drive, Southlake, Texas, asked the Commission to leave the
Zembrod property as Office Commercial. She stated that she speaks for several of her neighbors
when she says that she is opposed to any type of retail development on this property.
Terry Mullaney, 1515 ~ Carroll Avenue, Southlake, Texas, stated his concern of the changes
proposed in Study Area 'B'. He stated that he is opposed to changing the Rockenbaugh property and
the Knox property to Medium Density Residential. He stated that he is already extremely concerned
about the drainage in this area, and by doubling the number of possible rooftops adjacent to him, the
Commission is increasing his concerns greatly.
Barbara Lamoreaux asked the Commission what the minimum number of acres it takes for a P.U.D.
zoning.
Mr. Carpenter stated that P.U.D. zoning requires a minimum of 50 acres.
Louis Kaposta, 2311 Crooked Lane, Southlake, Texas, stated his concern about the industrial
designation on his property which is zoned agricultural and is currently being used as residential.
Commissioner Edmondson stated that the Commission is not proposing any changes to the industrial
area around Mr. Kaposta's residence. She stated that area has been shown as industrial for several
years.
Jim Haltom, 1700 Sunshine Lane, Southlake, Texas, stated that he purchased the Knox property
recently. He asked that the Commission be consistent with the surrotmding properties when making
changes to the Land Use Plan. He stated that he would rather it be Low Density Residential. He
stated that he feels the Commission is handing out upgrades too freely.
Vice-Chairman Murphy closed the public hearing.
Vice-Chairman Murphy called for a recess at 8:24 p.m.
Vice-Chairman Murphy called the meeting back to order at 8:34 p.m.
(Planning and Zoning Commission meeting, 12-18-97, tape 1, section #3389)

applicants of Agenda Items #16 and # 18 and called for a motion.

The Commission resumed consideration of the Land Use Plan Update.
The Commission discussed the Lamoreaux property and decided it should stay as it is shown on the
proposed Land Use Plan - Low Density Residential.
The Commission discussed the Zembrod property and decided it should stay as it is shown on the
proposed Land Use Plan - Office Commercial.
The Commission agreed to change Conner Lam's property (shown as 'A' on his diagram) in Study
Area 'D' to Office Commercial.
Regarding the Rockenbaugh/Knox property, Commissioner Creighton suggested changing it back
to Low Density Residential. She stated that Mr. Knox was the person arguing that it should be
Medium Density Residential, and since the property has apparently sold to Mr. Haltom, who does
not mind it being Low Density Residential, she feels it should be changed back.
Commissioner Tate disagreed with Commissioner Creighton and stated that the Commission
discussed this area for several evenings and feels it should remain as Medium Density Residential.
Commissioner Jones agreed with Conunissioner Tate.
Commissioner LeVrier stated that he sees the creek as a dividing line and supports leaving it as
Medium Density Residential.
Commissioner Edmondson stated that she is adamantly opposed to Medium Density Residential on
the Rockenbaugh/Knox property.

Vice-Chairman Murphy agreed with leaving the designation on the RockenbauglVKnox property as
it is shown which is Medium Density Residential.
The majority of the Commission agreed with leaving the Rockenbaugh/Knox property shown as
Medium Density Residential.
Commissioner Jones suggested changing the southwest comer of East Highland Street and North
Kimball Avenue to something other than residential.
After discussion, it was agreed to leave the southwest comer as Medium Density Residential.
Commissioner Edmondson stated that due to the changes on the following properties, she cannot
support this Land Use Plan: the RockenbauglVKnox property; the Schelling property; the southeast
corner of Shady Lane and North Kimball Avenue
nol~!~ We; a large tract of Retail Commercial on the ~outh side of F.M ..... ,
Commissioner Creighton stated that she agrees with most of Commissioner Edmondson's concerns,
in particularly, regarding the Rockenbaugh/Knox tract. She stated that it seems to be more the result
ora private deal than it is trying to remain consistent with the Land Use Plan that had been in effect
in the City.
Motion was made to approve the Land Use Plan Update as shown on the December 18, 1997, plan
and reflecting the Commission's recommendations tonight.

Drive. The Current Zoning is "AG" Agricultural District. The Requested Zoning is "C-2" Local
Retail Commercial District. The Owner and Applicant is Benchmark Properties. The Land Use
Category is Mixed Use. The Corridor Recommendation is Village Center. Twelve (12) written
notices were sent to property owners within the 200' notification, and four (4) responses have been
received with all being in favor.
Ray Williamson, 479 ~ Highland, Southlake, Texas, presented this item to the Commission. He
stated that he intends to maintain the site as natural as possible. He compared the quality of the
restaurant to that of a "Ruth Chris" restaurant. He corrected the name of the development to be
"Hill Country" which, he stated, could be compared to developments in the Texas Hill Country; it
will have a motif of natural elements with rock and stone.
Mr. Williamson asked for a variance to Staff Comments Item #4 (10' Type 'B' bufferyard along west
property line).
The Commission discussed their various concems with the location and the proximity of the two (2)
driveways on this site.
John Levitt (J.E. Levitt Engineers) 726 Commerce, Suite 104, Southlake, Texas, stated that he
suggested to Mr. Williamson to place a common access driveway along the west property line
adjacent to the T-Bird Nest. He stated that when the T-Bird Nest develops, they will probably close
off the 12' asphalt driveway and have a common access easement all the way across to Liberty Bank.
Commissioner Creighton stated that she is equally concerned about the driveways and the stacking
depths. She stated that if the middle driveway was moved to the far east property line, the applicant
would have more ability to have a greater stacking distance.
Commissioner LeVrier stated that Mr. Williamson also might think about flipping the locations of
his restaurant and bank.
Commissioner Edmondson asked Mr. Williamson if there are many trees within the 5' bufferyard
along the west property line. Mr. Williamson stated that his goal is to keep the bufferyard as natural
as possible and once he gets a tree survey, he will have a better idea of exactly where the trees are
located.
Vice-Chairman Murphy stated that if the variance is granted for the 5' bufferyard, he would like to
see the plantings for the 10' bufferyard placed elsewhere on the site. Mr. Levitt stated that is not a
problem.
Planner Dennis Killough stated that this whole area is currently under a "Collector Analysis" study
and this site may be impacted by this study. He stated that any action taken on driveways and
driveway spacings may need to be reconsidered when the site plan comes forward.

Commissioner LeVrier asked Mr. Williamson if he would consider tabling this item and returning
to the Commission with all of the changes discussed. Mr. Williamson stated that he has already been
delayed once due to the Case Limitation Resolution and would prefer to move forward with his Site
Plan.
Vice-Chairman Murphy opened the public hearing. No one in the audience stepped forward to
speak. Vice-Chairman Murphy closed the public hearing.
Commissioner LeVrier suggested that Mr. Williamson work out his dumpster services between his
different entities.

Richard Myers (Realty Capital Corporation) 920 S. Main, Suite 170, Grapevine, Texas, presented
this item to the Commission. He asked for a variance to Item #3a and #3b (butTeryard requirements)
but agreed to place the plantings elsewhere on the site. He also asked for a variance to Items #4a,
#4b, and #4c (driveway spacings and stacking depths).
Vice-Chairman Murphy stated that the north driveway on Lot 2 presents a problem because it is too
close to F.M. 1709, and it is confusing for people turning into this development offofF.M. 1709.
Mr. Myers stated that he agrees and that he will eliminate the drive.
Commissioner Creighton stated that she is concerned with the stacking depth on the eastern
driveway especially when the tract to the east develops and will share that driveway.
Mr. Myers stated that the developer to the east of him will probably have their main driveway on the
eastern side of their own property and will use his driveway as a secondary access.
Planner Dennis Killough stated that he needs to add a Review Comment #4e which states that the
eastern drive of Lot 4, which is east of the proposed driveway, does not meet the spacing
requirement from their proposed 50' R.O.W. He said it is spaced at 225' and it requires 500'.
Mr. Myers asked for a variance to Items #5a (60' R.O.W. width) and #5b (R.O.W. intersecting F.M.
1709 at 90°). Mr. Myers stated that Mayor Stacy has indicated that anything above 80° is okay.
Mr. Myers stated that he would like some flexibility - maybe 85 ° and up.
Vice-Chairman Murphy opened the public hearing. No one in the audience stepped forward to
speak. Vice-Chairman Murphy closed the public hearing.
Motion was made to approve ZA 97-159, subject to Concept Plan Review Stagmary No. 1, dated
December 18, 1997, deleting Items #3a and #3b (bufferyard requirements) and requiring the
applicant to place the plantings elsewhere on the site; deleting Items #4b, #4c, and #4e (driveway
spacings and stacking depths); deleting Item #5a (60' R.O.W. width), and modifying #5b (R.O.W.
