Item 6B & 6D 1 qt 6 0 Architecture Interiors Space Planning Project Management ALLIANCEARCHITECTS Dallas • Richardson Stephen B. Johns, AIA Michael W. Parrish, AIA Charles J. Reagan, AIA Thomas M. Maxwell, AIA Chad D. Michel, AIA Heritage Business Park KTR Capital Partners has acquired 7 properties within and adjacent to the city limits of Southlake and Grapevine Texas. KTR is proposing a new office / industrial project on one of the properties in Southlake, Texas. Being called Heritage Business Park, it is located on South Kimball Avenue on a 24.1 acre tract of land consisting of two buildings of 134,160 sf (Heritage VIII) and 210,552 sf (Heritage IX). The buildings are designed for multi- tenant and are able to park as much as 20% office if needed. The site design consists of three street egress / ingress locations which will provide easy access to both trucks and automobiles. Street egress / ingress on the East and West will allow trucks direct access to the loading areas for both buildings, while the middle street egress / ingress allow for automobiles to have easy access to both buildings from a main central drive. The main central drive separates the two buildings along with a landscape buffer area on each side and landscaping throughout the park. Also, to allow for a more efficient access to this property and the adjacent property, the East egress / ingress will serve as a shared access to both properties. The current entry to the adjacent property will be closed and landscaped. This new entry will serve as the second access to the adjacent property. The new connection to both properties will occur approximately 100' to the south with a 31' wide lane. Tilt -up concrete panels will be the main building material with the entries being accentuated by stone, glass and canopies. A stone accent wall is also introduced within the design to segment the length of the buildings. Heritage VIII will be 172' in depth and 780' in length and Heritage IX will be 228' in depth and 884' in length. Both buildings will have a typical 52' x 56' bay layout with a 60' speed bay at the loading side. Both buildings will have a clear height of approximately 29'. The main height of both buildings will be 35'. Both buildings will have natural light via skylights throughout. ALUANCEARCHITECTS Inc. 1600 N.

Johns, AIA Michael W. Parrish, AIA Charles J. Reagan, AIA Thomas M. Maxwell, AIA Chad D. Michel, AIA The project will be requesting the following variances: a. Driveway spacing along Kimball Avenue does not conform to the 250' spacing requirement. The westernmost driveway into the project site is approximately 162' from the nearest driveway. The traffic impact analysis submitted as part of this site plan did not indicate any stacking issues with this site layout. The easternmost driveway into the project site is approximately 88' from the nearest driveway. However, the existing driveway into the adjacent site will be closed. Work on the adjacent site and proposed site is anticipated to be performed at the same time. A variance is requested for the driveway spacing indicated on the proposed site plan. b. The proposed west, center and east driveways do not conform to the minimum stacking depth of 75'. The proposed plan indicates stacking depths of 58', 60' and 60', respectively. The traffic impact analysis submitted as part of this site plan did not indicate any stacking issues with this site layout. A variance is requested for the driveway stacking indicated on the proposed site plan. c. 70% of the onsite tree cover shall be preserved per the Tree Preservation Ordinance. The applicant was directed by the Landscape Administrator to assess the existing trees for the level of quality. Since the applicant determined that many of the trees were of low quality and needed to be removed, the 70% tree cover preservation requirement cannot be met. A variance is requested for the tree preservation on this site. ALLIANCEARCHITECTS Inc. 1600 N. Collins Blvd. Suite 1000 Richardson, Texas 75080 972/233/0400 Fax 972/233/2259 -2—
