Item 7B Legends at Southlake 1 OWNER/ APPLICANT: Brown Company REQUEST: Approval of Zoning Change and Concept Plan from “S-P-2” with “I-1” Light Industrial uses to “S-P-2” with “I-1” Light Industrial uses for an office/warehouse development LOCATION: 2300-2380 Dean Way ZA15-025 The applicant Brown Company is requesting approval of a Zoning Change and Concept Plan from S-P-2 to S-P-2 for the Legends at Southlake development and a site plan for Lots 3 through 6, the last 4 lots of the development located at 2300 to 2380 Dean Way. 2 The future land use designation is Industrial 3 The current zoning on the property is S-P-2 4 Lot 1 Building Lot 2 Building Lot 3 Lot 4 Lot 5 Lot 6 And this is an aerial of the site with the approximate zoning development boundary shown by the yellow line. The lots shown in the blue text are the lots with the buildings being site planned this evening. 5 APPROVED CONCEPT PLAN (2013) N Legends at Southlake was originally approved by City Council in December of 2013 for the development of 6 single story office/warehouse buildings. 6 APPROVED CONCEPT PLAN (2014) N In August of 2014 the applicant revised the concept plan to specifically amend Lot 3 and its internal layout to accommodate an interested buyer at Vario Systems. This is the currently approved concept plan for the development. 7 Previous Lot 3 Rendering Lot 3 Building Lot 5 Building Lot 6 Building Vario S Kimball Ave The modification to Lot 3 also included increasing the number of stories of that building to 2 stories. This is a revised rendering showing the proposed new Lot 3 building with Vario Systems shown as a campus. 8 PROPOSED CONCEPT PLAN (2015) The proposed Concept Plan changes Lot 3 to its original configuration and to be only 1 story which was initially approved in 2013. This plan also modifies the layout slightly of Lot 5 and increases the building height to two-stories for that lot only. 9 This is a comparison of the approvals for legends at southlake so the Council can see the evolution of the project in terms of its technical information. 10 PROPOSED LANDSCAPE PLAN This is the color landscape plan submitted by the applicant, as proposed the landscape plan meets the city’s landscape ordinance requirements. 11 PROPOSED TREE CONSERVATION PLAN This is the applicants tree preservation plan. They are preserving approximately 9% of the of 38.8% of the tree cover there is on site. Much of this tree cover has already been removed due to the development of lots 1 and 2 and the construction of Dean Way. [60% required to be preserved under straight “I-1” zoning] 12 APPROVED SAMPLE ELEVATIONS This is the applicants typical elevations for the building in Legends at Southlake. The materials consist of concrete tilt-wall with textured paint and stone veneer. This is the way the buildings on lots 1 and 2 were developed. 13 LOT 3 ELEVATIONS And these are the elevations for Lot 3. The materials are the same as previously proposed with stone veneer and concrete tilt-wall. The applicant however now is requesting to modify the colors slightly to more earth toned colors than what was presented in previous approvals. 14 LOT 4 ELEVATIONS This is lot 4 elevations. As the Commission will notice the elevations are largely the same for all buildings with the exception of Lot 5. 15 LOT 5 ELEVATIONS These are the Lot 5 building elevations which show a two-story 31,170 square foot two story building. This building also incorporates more glass into the façade than the other buildings within the development. 16 LOT 6 ELEVATIONS And these are Lot 6 building elevations 17 VARIANCE – P&Z (4-23-2015) B C D A S Kimball Ave Dean Way There is a variance to driveway stacking. The driveway stacking depths are being reduced on Driveways B, C and D from the depths shown in the middle column on the chart to the depth shown on the far right column. Driveway A is actually increasing in stacking depth from what was originally approved. 18 PROPOSED VARIANCE B C D A S Kimball Ave Dean Way 19 20 25-feet front-yard setback 36-feet Lot 5 Building only 21 April 23, 2015 Approved (5-0) subject to Concept Plan Review Summary No. 2, dated April 17, 2015 and the staff report dated April 17, 2015 granting the variances as requested with respect to the driveway stacking depths but noting the applicants agreement and willingness to address the stacking depth issue by perhaps losing some parking spaces and especially in Driveway ‘D’ which is the one of biggest concern prior to going to City Council in a couple weeks.
