Transition District

The purpose and intent of the TZD is to implement the Transition land use category guidelines for the Transition 1 and Transition 2 land use categories established in the Southlake 2025 Plan. The Transition Zoning District is intended to: allow a mixture of complimentary land uses that may include housing, retail, offices, commercial services, and civic uses to create economic vitality; develop commercial and mixed-use areas that are safe, comfortable and attractive to pedestrians and protect significant environmentally sensitive areas; provide flexibility in the siting and design of new developments and redevelopment to anticipate changes in the marketplace while establishing human-scaled residential and non-residential buildings; reinforce streets as public places that encourage pedestrian and bicycle travel; provide roadway and pedestrian connections to residential areas; provide transitions between high traffic streets and neighborhoods; encourage efficient uses of land by facilitating compact development and minimizing the amount of land that is needed for surface parking; provide appropriate locations and design standards for automobile- and truckdependent uses; and maintain mobility along traffic corridors and state highways.
