Re: Case SUP-21-004
Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting, May 6, 2021
Agenda Item:
Case SUP-21-004 (Aloft Alcohol On-Premises)
a. Conduct a Public Hearing regarding a request made by Aloft Hotel for a Specific Use
Permit for alcoholic beverage sales for on-premises consumption in conjunction with
a restaurant use, located at 96 Trophy Club Drive.
b. Discussion and recommendation regarding a request made by Aloft Hotel for a
Specific Use Permit for alcoholic beverage sales for on-premises consumption in
conjunction with a restaurant use, located at 96 Trophy Club Drive.
Strategic Link:
Infrastructure & Development – Foster a business-friendly environment.
Background and Explanation:
Aloft Hotel is requesting approval of a Specific Use Permit (SUP) for alcoholic beverage sales for
on-premises consumption in conjunction with a restaurant use according to Section 14.02.252 of
the Town’s Code of Ordinances. The property’s zoning of Planned Development No. 30 (PD-30)
does not restrict the sales of alcoholic beverages beyond the regulations of Town Code and State
Law.
As shown in Exhibit B, Aloft is applying to the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC) to
obtain a Mixed Beverage Restaurant Permit (RM) and a Mixed Beverage Late Hours Permit (LB)
which will allow for the sale and consumption of wine, beer, and liquor on the premises and
during late hours (12 midnight – 2 AM). Town Code does not restrict hours of operation beyond
TABC’s regulations.
Section 14.02.252(b) of the Code of Ordinances states that no alcoholic beverages may be sold
within 300 feet of a church, public school or private school, or public hospital. Subsection (g)
Page 2 of 2
describes the methods of measurement as front door to front door and along street front
property lines when measuring to churches and public hospitals, and in a direct line from nearest
property line to property line when measuring to public schools and private schools. Aloft
complies with Town and State requirements, as the closest church (Fellowship United Methodist
Church) is approximately 1,280 feet away, the closest public school (Lakeview Elementary School)
is approximately 1.33 miles away, the closest private school (Primrose School of Westlake at
Entrada) is approximately 3,065 feet away, and the closest public hospital (Methodist Southlake
Hospital) is approximately 4.25 miles away. The nearby Baylor Scott & White Medical Center –
Trophy Club is a private hospital so there are no separation requirements.
Parking needs have been addressed by the required on-site parking spaces.
The Chief of Police has reviewed this application, as required by Code, and does not have any
objections.
Notice of a public hearing was distributed as required by State Law. To date, staff has not received
any inquiries.
Financial Considerations:
Not applicable.
Legal Review:
The Town Attorney has reviewed this item and has no objection.
Staff Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of the Specific Use Permit.

Agenda Item:
Case SUP-21-005 (Aloft Alcohol Off-Premises)
a. Conduct a Public Hearing regarding a request made by Aloft Hotel for a Specific Use
Permit for alcoholic beverage sales for off-premises consumption to be sold from the
Aloft market, located at 96 Trophy Club Drive.
b. Discussion and recommendation regarding a request made by Aloft Hotel for a
Specific Use Permit for alcoholic beverage sales for off-premises consumption to be
sold from the Aloft market, located at 96 Trophy Club Drive.
Strategic Link:
Infrastructure & Development – Foster a business-friendly environment.
Background and Explanation:
Aloft Hotel is requesting approval of a Specific Use Permit (SUP) for alcoholic beverage sales for
off-premises consumption so that they may be able to sell wine and beer in the Aloft market,
alongside snacks and toiletries, located inside the hotel.
As shown in Exhibit B, Aloft is applying to the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC) to
obtain a Wine and Beer Retailer’s Off-Premise Permit (BQ) which will allow for the sale of
unopened wine and beer to be consumed off-premises. If the Aloft market, specifically, is the
only area in the hotel permitted under TABC’s BQ permit, which forbids on-premises
consumption where alcohol is sold, then consumption remains legal throughout the rest of the
hotel so guests can continue to bring alcoholic beverages of any kind into their hotel rooms,
whether the alcohol is bought at the Aloft market or elsewhere. The property’s zoning of Planned
Development No. 30 (PD-30) does not restrict the sales of alcoholic beverages beyond the
regulations of Town Code and State Law.

Section 14.02.252(b) of the Code of Ordinances states that no alcoholic beverages may be sold

Re: Case ME-21-001
Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting, May 6, 2021
Agenda Item:
Case ME-21-001 (Aloft Porte Cochere Sign)
Discussion and recommendation regarding a request for a Meritorious Exception for a proposed
porte cochere sign at Aloft Hotel within Planned Development No. 30, located at 96 Trophy Club
Drive.
Strategic Link:
Infrastructure & Development – Foster a business-friendly environment.
Background and Explanation:
Section 3.09.010 of the Town’s Code of Ordinances allows an interested party to make a request
for a Meritorious Exception to the Planning & Zoning Commission and Town Council to consider
a proposal that is nonconforming to the sign regulations, but may have obvious merit and may
make a positive contribution to the visual environment.
A request for a Meritorious Exception is necessary for the proposed porte cochere sign at Aloft
Hotel because it does not fit into any of the sign categories within the Planned Development No.
30 (PD-30) Development Standards (Section II.H.1), such as freestanding development sign,
sloped roof sign, hanging sign, or wall sign.
As shown on Exhibits B & C, the 8 foot tall “aloft” channel letters will be welded to steel tubing
at the end of the 18.5 foot tall porte cochere with 14 inch tall “HOTELS” channel letters mounted
to the base. Exhibit A has a yellow rectangle shown inside the hotel property lines to illustrate
that the porte cochere faces northwest toward the Bevan Apartment Homes, and Exhibit D
includes photos of the proposed silver metal sign as it stands at other Aloft locations.
Page 2 of 2
The porte cochere is already constructed as approved on the site plan and building plans and the
sign will be illuminated by focused lighting suspended from above.
Financial Considerations:
Not applicable.
Legal Review:
The Town Attorney has reviewed this item and has no objection.
Staff Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of the Meritorious Exception.

Re: Case PP-21-001
Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting, May 6, 2021
Agenda Item:
Case PP-21-001 (The Aspen Estates at Trophy Club)
Consider and take appropriate action regarding a request for a preliminary plat containing 3.370
acres of land located south of Trophy Club Drive, approximately 230 feet east of Bobcat
Boulevard and approximately 20 feet west of Mossman Lane.
Strategic Link:
Nature & Beautification – Maintain Town assets, services, and codes of ordinances that preserve
the natural beauty of the Town.
Background and Explanation:
The subject property was formerly used as a gas well site (#8-H), but the wells were plugged
several years ago. The property owner would now like to develop the property as a single family
subdivision consisting of 7 residential lots and 2 HOA lots with a cul-de-sac street dedicated as
right-of-way (ROW).
The proposed preliminary plat is located in the R-12 Single Family zoning district which requires
minimum 12,000 sf lots. It also calls for 25 foot front setbacks, 25 foot rear setbacks, and 10 foot
side setbacks (20 feet adjacent to a side street), as well as 90 foot wide lots when measured at
the front building line (110 feet adjacent to a side street) and 110 foot deep lots (100 feet for a
cul-de-sac or corner lot). The applicant has complied with all of the R-12 requirements.
The Aspen Estates HOA will be created and responsible for a masonry screening wall, signage,
and landscaping along Trophy Club Drive and the entrance into the subdivision, which will be
outlined in the Subdivider’s Agreement. Also included will be language referencing the Parkland
Dedication ordinance that requires money paid to the Town in lieu of land due to the small size
of the development.
Page 2 of 2
The plugged gas well heads are located under the proposed street’s ROW and there is no distance
requirement between a plugged (nonproducing) well head and a residence. The applicant has
provided documentation from the Railroad Commission of Texas indicating the plugging of the
wells in March of 2015.
The applicant provided staff with a preliminary drainage plan with lots graded to drain towards
the street. The preliminary utility plan proposes an 8 inch water line and an 8 inch sanitary sewer
line extending the length of the proposed street and connecting to the existing water and sanitary
sewer lines in Trophy Club Drive’s ROW. These preliminary plans have been approved by the
Town’s 3rd party engineer, but full civil plans will be required before a final plat is approved. In
addition, it still needs to be determined through what entity the utilities will be provided before
a final plat can be submitted.
Financial Considerations:
Not applicable.
Legal Review:
The Town Attorney has reviewed this item and has no objection.
Staff Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of the preliminary plat.

Re: Case O-AMD-21-001
Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting, May 6, 2021
Agenda Item:
Case O-AMD-21-001 (Political Signs)
Recommendation regarding proposed amendments concerning political signs to Article 3.09
Signs in the Town’s Code of Ordinances.
Strategic Link:
Nature & Beautification – Maintain Town assets, services, and codes or ordinances that preserve
the natural beauty of the Town
Background and Explanation:
Political signs have been a hot topic for the last few years due to state and federal elections.
There is cause to update the Town’s Sign Ordinance to keep up with new trends so the proposed
amendments include revising the political sign definition to include flags, increasing the duration
of time political signs can be displayed, and updating the signage table to reflect the amended
duration and add language in the “Maximum Number” column to match the language in
subsection 3.09.062(e) of the political signs ordinance. Proposed additions to the Town’s Sign
Ordinance are shown below in red and deletions are shown crossed out.
“CHAPTER 3 BUILDING REGULATIONS
…
ARTICLE 3.09 SIGNS

Sec. 3.09.062 Political signs
(a) Duration. All political signs meeting the requirements of this article, shall only be erected
or maintained in a location allowed under this article for a maximum period of ninety
(90) sixty (60) days before the signs must be replaced or removed as required by this
article. Political signs shall be kept in good repair and proper state of preservation during
the entire time that they are erected. Political signs advertising an event, election,
function or activity shall be removed within ten (10) three (3) days following the date of
