had been filed by Opryland Hospitality Group requesting a conditional use permit to amend
the site plan approved by Ordinance No. 99-182 for a planned commercial center with a
hotel and conference center to amend the parking layout. The subject property is located

parking. The convention center parking garage remains a part of the plan but has been ,.,,

ITEM 2. PUBLIC HEARING, ZONING APPLICATION Z01-01 LAKEVIEW ESTATES
Mayor Tate declared the public hearing open.
Development Services Director Hardy advised Zoning Application Z01-01 had been filed
by Lakeview Estates requesting rezoning of approximately 22.868 acres from "R-20" Single
Family District Regulations to "R-5.0" Zero Lot Line District Regulations with deed
restrictions. The subject property is located at the southeast corner of the intersection of
Midway Drive and Burney Road. Mr. Hardy reviewed the deed restrictions submitted by
the applicant as follows: the minimum dwelling unit size shall be 1,800 square feet;
minimum roof pitch of 7/12 on all homes; open fencing shall be required from the side of
the home to the lot line; and all requirements of the "R-7.5" Single Family District shall be
met with the exception of the front yard setback requirements for 25 feet instead of 30 feet.
Mr. David McMahan, representing Four Peaks Development, Inc., requested favorable
consideration of the application. He reviewed the proposed development that includes 81
lots with an average lot size of 7,600 to 9,183 square feet, with a median size of 8,700
square feet. He also noted the deed restrictions meet the requirements for "R-7.5" zoning
with the exception of the front yard set backs. Mr. McMahan advised the proposal would
increase the value of the surrounding properties; there should not be a significant impact
on the traffic or density of homes in the area and the school district has planned for
increased growth in the area. He stated the current mobile home residents would be given
four months to relocate after formal notification to vacate the property.
City Council questioned the proposed sewer and water plans for the area. Public Works
Director Jerry Hodge reviewed the proposed residential developments, as well as the
improvements to Meadowmere Park and noted that approval of the subject development

amount of time from notification and having to be moved, as well as having to relocate their

misinformation circulated in Southlake regarding the proposed development.

ITEM 17. PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
ZONING APPLICATION Z01-01 LAKEVIEW ESTATES
Chairman Oliver reported the Planning & Zoning Commission voted 5-2 for denial of
Zoning Application Z01-01 filed by Lakeview Estates. Zoning Application Z01-01
requested rezoning of approximately 22.868 acres from "R-20" Single Family District
Regulations to "R-5.0" Zero Lot Line District Regulations with deed restrictions. The
subject property is located at the southeast corner of the intersection of Midway Drive and
Burney Road.
Mayor Pro Tem Ware, seconded by Council Member Stewart, offered a motion to approve
the ordinance granting the rezoning. The motion failed by the following vote:
11
02/20/01
Ayes: Tate, Ware, Johnson, Stewart & Freed
Nays: Spencer & Wilbanks
It was noted that a 3/4 vote of the City Council was required to override the Commission's
vote for denial of the zoning case. Council discussion ensued relative to the only
difference of the requested "R-5.0" zoning with deed restricting the property to "R-7.5"
regulations was the 25 foot front yard set back. It was noted that denial of the rezoning
case would affect development of other projects in the area.
City Attorney John Boyle, Jr. noted that all of the requirements of the "R-7.5" zoning would
be complied with under the "R-5.0" zoning with the exception of the front yard setback. He
stated that the Council could inquire if the developer would be willing to offer in the deed
restrictions that all requirements in the "R-7.5" zoning district would be met.
Mr. McMahan stated that he would submit deed restrictions to comply with all requirements
of the "R-7.5" zoning.
Mr. Boyle then advised that one of the parties from the prevailing side could offer a new
motion for reconsideration of the zoning case.
Council Member Wilbanks, seconded by Council Member Johnson, offered a motion to
reconsider the application for approval with the developer agreeing to meet all of the
requirements as identified in the "R-7.5" zoning category that would be deed restricted and
agreed to by the developer and offered a motion to adopt the ordinance. The motion
prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Tate, Ware, Spencer, Wilbanks, Johnson, Stewart & Freed
