Southlake residents near two development corridors will get a chance to weigh in Nov. 19 when the Planning and Zoning Commission holds three public hearings at Town Hall.

The cases cover a proposed office building on West Kirkwood Boulevard and a pair of linked requests on South Kimball Avenue that would clear the way for a tutoring academy, according to the commission's posted agenda.

The regular session begins at 6:30 p.m. in the City Council Chambers at 1400 Main St.

Office building on Kirkwood

Under case ZA26-0074, applicant Curtis Young of Sage Group Inc. is seeking approval of a revised development plan for the 13.73-acre Kirkwood East Addition and a site plan for Lot 3. The goal: a two-story, 17,025-square-foot office and commercial building at 1440 W. Kirkwood Blvd.

Property owner Steven Gaffney's land sits on the east side of Kirkwood Boulevard, across from the Sabre parking structure, according to the public hearing notice. The site is zoned NR-PUD, or Non-Residential Planned Unit Development, and would stay in that category.

The broader development plan envisions eight buildings totaling about 44,000 square feet. The narrative states the project has been built in phases and that infrastructure is largely in place. The notice does not specify how many buildings are already complete.

Young has appeared before the commission on other Southlake projects. P&Z minutes from April 23 list him as the applicant on two separate zoning cases heard that evening.

Tutoring academy on Kimball

Two related cases target the Kimball Heights Addition at 515-565 S. Kimball Ave.

Case ZA26-0073 asks the commission to approve a zoning change and site plan that would allow a commercial school or tutoring academy as a use permitted by specific use permit (SUP). The property is zoned S-P-1, or Detailed Site Plan District, and would remain in that category. Applicant and property owner Vikram Jangam of 495 Kimball LLC filed the request.

Case ZA26-0081 is the SUP itself. The application narrative describes an appointment-based tutoring, SAT/ACT test-prep and college-advising operation in about 3,540 square feet at 545 S. Kimball Ave., Suite 100.

Proposed hours run Monday through Thursday from 4 to 8 p.m., with peak traffic between 5:30 and 7:30 p.m., and Sunday from 2 to 8 p.m. College advising would be by appointment seven days a week. The applicant estimates a maximum of 28 students, four staff and two parents on site at any one time during peak hours, with about 14 vehicles parked. Students would range from fourth through 12th grade, ages 9 to 18.

The suite shares 27 parking spaces with an interior-design business in Suite 160. That business closes at 5 p.m. on weekdays and is closed weekends, so the applicant says most parking overlap would be limited to the 4-to-5 p.m. window Monday through Thursday.

How to weigh in

Residents within 300 feet of either property received mailed notices with response forms. Forms can be mailed, faxed or hand-delivered to the Planning and Development Services Department at 1400 Main St., Suite 310, before the hearing begins. Questions on any of the three cases can go to project contact Melissa Burnett at 817-748-8621.

A work session starts at 6 p.m. in the Executive Conference Room, Suite 268, before the regular session moves to the council chambers.
