Southlake City Council approved three changes to various housing developments during the March 3 meeting.
Jane’s Place requested reducing the number of lots from 15 to 14, which was the only housing presentation at the March meeting. Changes were also granted for Dove Ridge and WillowTree Gardens under the consent agenda.
Jane’s Place
Council approved the first reading Feb. 3 and officially approved the development after it was previously tabled at the Feb. 17 meeting.
Coleigh Homes altered the design by removing a double-headed cul-de-sac at the back portion and removing a lot. The change adds 3,700 square feet of open space, and a reduction of front setback from 40 feet to 30 feet was approved.
According to previous reporting, the development is on 22.7 acres off North Peytonville Avenue. The subdivision is named after the previous owner of the land, Arthur Janes.
Jerry Statham, a partner at Coleigh Homes, spoke at the meeting.
“We decided to drop a lot,” he said. “It would get rid of some concrete, save some trees and give us a little more space to maneuver within the open space.”
WillowTree Gardens
The housing portion of a mixed-use development expired Feb. 21, but the development was not ready to be recorded. Council approved a one-year extension until March 4, 2027, for substantial completion.
According to city documents, the subdivision is near completion. Council approved the development, which includes an office/retail portion called The Overlook, in May 2024, according to previous reporting.
The development is 9.6 acres near the intersection of Carroll Avenue and Southlake Boulevard.
A filing with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation shows the $7 million retail portion will start construction in June with an estimated completion date of September 2027.
Dove Ridge
A plat revision was approved for Dove Ridge, located at 2080 E. Dove Road and 2117 E. Dove Road.
The 10.38-acre tract will have seven single-family homes with a private gated street. An existing house at 2117 E. Dove Road will remain, but 0.11 acres will be reallocated and lead to the Lot 9 replat, according to city documents.
According to previous reporting, the development was previously known as the Cardinal Court Addition.
