my tract on Glade Road, as requested in Zoning Application Z85-19.
Sincerely,
Mrs. L. V. Tonerlin

were then read:
May 17, 1985
Grapevine City Council Members
Grapevine Planning & Zoning Commission Members
The purpose of our letter is to voice our opposition to the proposed
down-zoning of the "Rustic Meadows Addition". We have lived at 3312
Marsh Lane since December 24, 1976.
The surrounding roads Hall-Johnson and Pool cannot support increased
traffic. Both roads are in terrible condition, aren't wide enough,
and are heavily traveled. Pool Road is just plain dangerous.
The proposed down-zoning will effect the value of our home. Why
can't Grapevine have the large hones that Southlake is getting now?
Larry Cole's additions in Colleyville should also show us that there
is a demand for something more luxurious, something other than the
tract type homes on the south side of Hall-Johnson. Why does
Grapevine have to settle for this?
Do you realize that these two-story monsters with their zero-lot
back yards will glare through to Marsh Lane? These houses cannot be
lined up with existing Marsh Lane houses since there will be two
lots for every one of ours. We already have had to deal with the
poor planning that left the back yard of a "High Country" lot
practically on Marsh Lane. A visiting relative of ours thought
they'd built another house on our cul-de-sac.
We believe the current property owners should be considered in the
down-zoning because the developers will develop the land and when it
is completed, they will drive back to Dallas.
The developers can and will make money on larger lots. Do you want
to help the developers make more money by squeezing in more lots, or
help the current homeowners by maintaining the value and integrity
of our property.

05/21/85
We appreciate the time and attention that you have given to this
problem.
Sincerely,
Mike & Bridget Davis
3312 Marsh Lane

May 18, 1985
City Council and t`
Planning & Zoning Commission
Grapevine, Texas 76051
Dear City Council and Planning & Zoning Commission Members:
In regard to the proposed zoning change on the property designated
as Rustic Meadows, owned by Devon Development, from "R-20" to
"R-7.511, we request that no change be approved. The existing road
system is inadequate at this time to handle traffic at its current
rate, and certainly could not acccmriodate the increase a smaller
housing development would create. Pool Road in particular has
become, due to construction of the high school access road and the
extension of Old Mill Run, the primary access of many south
Grapevine and Colleyville students to the high school and Timberline
Elementary, which has added greatly to the daily flow of traffic.
In addition, Timberline is now 120 students over capacity with an
additional increase of 18 to 22 percent projected for the coning
school year. With the completion of a new elementary facility two
years away, the increased student load at the three schools affected
should be considered. In past years, the city and school system
have not found it necessary to work together to plan for the growth
that both must support; however, since both are ultimately concerned
with the quality of life in Grapevine, and in view of the dramatic
influx of new residents to the area and the temporary inability of
school construction to keep pace with student population increases,
we urge the city government to make the effect on schools a
consideration in determining this and future developments in our
city.
We also feel that approval of this zoning would adversely affect the
home owners in our neighborhood. We do not feel that the value of
the raw land in this development should be increased when the effect
would be to decrease the property values of current home owners.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Dick & Susan Rawlirs
3531 N:arsh Lane

Grapevine City Council
Grapevine, Texas
Gentlemen:
We are opposed to the down-zoning of the proposed "Rustic Meadows
Addition", being developed by Devon Corporation of Dallas. The
roads are dangerous and inadequate to handle the traffic from
additional housing.

We have lived on Marsh Lane, which joins this property the past ten
years. We waited ten years for sewer in our addition. It seems our
side of Grapevine has been neglected for years, and now this.

We will be in attendance at the Tuesday night City Council meeting.
Anything you can do to help will be greatly appreciated.

May 20, 1985
City Council and
Planning & Zoning Commission
P.O. Box 729
Grapevine, Texas 76051
Dear Council Members:
We wish to express our concern regarding the request for changing
25.06 acres fronting Hall-Johnson Road between Pool and Parr Roads f
from "R-20" Single-Family to "R-7.5" Single-Family Zoning.
A person purchases their property with the hope that the zoning in
effect at the time of purchase will stand firm. This allows the
individual to have some idea at the time of purchase as to how an
area is to be developed, thus the resident should have some reliance
that zoning is stable.
This request for change will greatly alter the style of residential
development anticipated by residents surrounding the area.
Furthermore, the streets serving this area are in serious disrepair.
It is difficult for two cars to pass in several areas without one
car getting off the pavement. In addition to the very narrow, bad
road, there are no shoulders to the road.
Please consider our opinion regarding the negative aspects of
rezoning this area and the condition of Hall-Johnson and Pool roads
when making your decision.
Sincerely,
Mr. & Mrs. E. M. King
3080 High Mesa Court
