Area Plans:
The Oak Lawn Special Purpose District and the Oak Lawn Plan include the following
objectives:
3-4
Z067-325 (OTH)
(1) To achieve buildings more urban in form.
(2) To promote and protect an attractive street level pedestrian
environment with continuous street frontage activities in retail areas.
(3) To encourage the placement of off-street parking underground or
within buildings similar in appearance to non-parking buildings.
(4) To promote development appropriate to the character of nearby
neighborhood uses by imposing standards sensitive to scale and adjacency issues.
(5) To use existing zoned development densities as a base from which
to plan, while providing bonuses to encourage residential development in commercial
areas.
(6) To discourage variances or zoning changes which would erode the
quantity or quality of single-family neighborhoods, or would fail to adhere to the
standards for multiple-family neighborhoods and commercial areas.
(7) To promote landscape/streetscape quality and appearance.
The applicant’s request complies with objectives No. 2, 4, 6, and 7. It is anticipated that
pedestrian sidewalks will be aligned away from Wicliff Avenue and Lemmon Avenue,
thus providing a buffer from traffic movements along the thoroughfare.
The request does not comply with the following objectives: No. 1 because the design of
the building and overall layout of the site does not have an urban form; No. 3, because
the required parking does not warrant a parking structure; and No. 5, because the
request does not include a residential element.
Comprehensive Plan:
The forwardDallas!The request for a bank or savings and loan with drive-through
window service complies with the following land use goal and policy of the
Comprehensive Plan because the use and development of the property is consistent
with the retail nature of the area:
Land use
The neighborhood has a unique retail and office development character.
Goal 1.1 Align Land Use strategies with economic development priorities.

Z067-325 (OTH)
Policy 1.1.5 Strengthen existing neighborhoods unique characteristics and
promote unique characteristics.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
Land Use Compatibility:
The approximately 0.537-acre request site is zoned a GR General Retail Subdistrict
within Planned Development District No. 193, the Oak Lawn Special Purpose District.
The site is currently undeveloped. The applicant is proposing to construct a bank with
drive-through automatic teller machines on the property, which requires a Specific Use
Permit. The applicant indicates the proposed building height is 21’6” feet, the maximum
allowed height in a GR District is 24’.
The surrounding land uses are multiple family to the northeast; retail to the southeast;
retail uses to the southwest; and retail uses and restaurant to the northwest.
The general provisions for a Specific Use Permit in Section 51A-4.219 of the Dallas
Development Code specifically state: (1) The SUP provides a means for developing
certain uses in a manner in which the specific use will be consistent with the character
of the neighborhood; (2) Each SUP application must be evaluated as to its probable
effect on the adjacent property and the community welfare and may be approved or
denied as the findings indicate appropriate; (3) The city council shall not grant an SUP
for a use except upon a finding that the use will: (A) complement or be compatible with
the surrounding uses and community facilities; (B) contribute to, enhance, or promote
the welfare of the area of request and adjacent properties; (C) not be detrimental to the
public health, safety, or general welfare; and (D) conform in all other respects to all
applicable zoning regulations and standards. The regulations in this chapter have been
established in accordance with a comprehensive plan for the purpose of promoting the
health, safety, morals, and general welfare of the city.
The proposed use and development of the property is consistent with the retail and
office nature of the area. The site plan indicates the drive-through lane will provide two
stacking spaces for the ATM service as required by Code. The ATM lanes have ingress
and egress access on Wycliff Avenue and on Lemmon Avenue. The bank will also
have ingress/access on both, Wicliff Avenue and Lemmon Avenue.

Landscaping:
Landscaping required per Planned Development District No. 193. The attached
landscaping plan is also a condition of the Specific Use Permit. The landscaping plan
meets the requirements of PDD No. 193.
Parking / Traffic:
Parking required per Planned Development District No. 193 for a bank requires 1 off-
street parking space per 366 square feet of floor area. The proposed bank will require 8
off-street parking spaces for 2,749 square feet. The site plan shows that 22 spaces will
be provided. The SUP conditions state that at least two stacking spaces for ATM
service be provided.
The site plan shows ingress and egress points on Lemmon Avenue and Wycliff Avenue.
This driveway allows for customers who park to use either Wycliff Avenue or Lemmon
Avenue as an exit. Egress on Lemmon Avenue will be a right-turn only since traffic will
be exiting on to Lemmon Avenue west bound. Wycliff Avenue is a one way street and
will allow a left turn only for exit purposes. Staff is recommending that directional
signage be provided on the Wycliff Avenue access point.
The expected number of trips generated by the proposed use is 730 trips per day
according to the trip rate for a financial institution with drive-in for the proposed floor
area. A Traffic Impact Study is only required for proposals that generate more than
1,000 trips per day unless a waiver is issued.
