Bear Hollow to bring 33 single-family homes to Southlake

A new single-family residential neighborhood located off of Davis Boulevard called Bear Hollow will include 33 homes in Southlake.

Council approved a zoning change and development plan for Bear Hollow by a 4-3 vote, with council members Frances Scharli, Chuck Taggart and Eric Wang voting against, during the Aug. 18 meeting.

The details: Bear Hollow is a proposed gated community with private streets, and it will include 33 single-family lots. The average residential lot size is 14,648, according to city documents.

The development sits on 20.97 acres and will include more than 7 acres of open space, per city documents. There are also two proposed detention ponds for Bear Hollow, said Jody Body, a manager with BridgeRock Developments, the site’s developer.

Some context: Council members approved a first reading of the zoning change and concept plan Aug. 4. During the meeting, council members provided feedback to the developer that adding a gate could make sense to deter truck traffic from using the neighborhood’s streets to turn around.
