EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Property Situation
The property is located 2301 Crooked Lane at the southeast corner of Crooked Lane
and South Kimball Avenue directly west of Dragon Stadium.
Development Details
Proposed revisions to the previously approved business park concept plan from 5
buildings to 7 buildings ranging in size from 12-14,000 SF to 20,000 SF buildings. The
total SF for all the buildings would be increased from 100,000 SF to 120,000 SF
(pending required green space calculations). All buildings would be one story (similar to
Champion Crossing) with additional architectural features including more colored
masonry treatments and additional landscaping for a campus atmosphere. An additional
feature would include a potential walking trail throughout the property.
The proposed drive would be changed with a possible connection to the west Dragon
Stadium parking lot pending discussions with Carroll ISD.
Tenants would be local businesses looking for larger facilities and local residents
wanting to have office space in Southlake.
Buildings would be placed or tucked into the trees to help preserve the existing trees as
much as possible.

QUESTIONS / CONCERNS
What type of tenants will lease these buildings?
There is a shortage of 5,000 SF plus office space in the area and this will help
Î
meet the needs of those clients. Interest from existing Southlake residents
wanting to work and live in Southlake and businesses wanting to expand in and
relocate to Southlake.
Will all the buildings be built at once?
No, some buildings will be built at the start and new ones will be built as
Î
requested and leased.
Will there be a wall next to the school property?
Yes and No. Walls will be constructed for the adjacent residential property, but
Î
discussions with the school district will determine the screening requirements.
What is the timeline for the development
The P & Z meeting has not been scheduled yet.
Î
Will there be parking for the games or tailgating on the property?
Not sure yet as discussions with the school district have not occurred yet for the
Î
drive connection and other items.
Resident likes the plan and likes the connection to the stadium parking lot.
Meeting presentation adjourned at 7:30 pm
