MENMEORM Since there was no one present to represent the case, Chairman, Bigbie, stated they would postpone it until later in the meeting in case the applicant should arrive. • :: -t, . . # • W U1 The next item of new business was for the Board of Zoning Adjustment to consider BZA 86-06, submitted by Bear Run Joint Venture, who is requesting a variance from Grapevine Zoning Ordinance 82-73, Section 25.F.2 which requires a rezoning request for "CC", Community Commercial, to be a minimum of five (5) acres for the property located at Bear Run and W. D. Tate Avenue. The applicant is requesting the variance to allow a 4.257 acre tract to become "CC", Community Commercial. Joy Carroll stated that Staff recommended approval because the applicant requested to increase the commercial acreage in redesigning Bear Run Drive, to bring it into conformance with City Standards for it to be accepted for dedication. Joy Carroll also stated that the applicant prefers not to further expand the community commercial acreage (to met the 5 acre minimum district requirement) because it would expand into the flood plain area. Troy Fuller, of 3607 Softwind Ct., Grapevine, Texas, took the Oath of Truth and explained how this property had been rezoned in 1984 to "CC", Community Commercial from Site Plan zoning. When the rezoning took place, this tract did not meet the 5 acre minimum, so the City Council and Planning and Zoning Commission approved the zone change, following BZA variance approval to the 5-acre requirement, to meet the Ordinance. Mr. Fuller stated that the zone change is for everything south of Bear Run Drive to be "R-TH", Townhouse, and property along the freeway be zoned "CC", Community Commercial. Joy Carroll stated that City Council did approve the zoning on the 1st reading of the Ordinance on March 15, 1988 and that BZA approval is needed tonight before the City Council can act on the final reading.
