PUBLIC HEARING, ZONING APPLICATION Z81-24 , DARLIN COMPANY
The first order of business was for the City Council and
Planning & Zoning Commission to conduct a public hearing
relative to Zoning Application Z81-24 , submitted by the
Darlen Company.
Mayor Tate declared the public hearing open.
The City Secretary explained that the property in question
was two tracts of land on the northeast corner of Dooley
Street and Wildwood Lane. She further advised that the
request was to change the zoning of Tract "A" from "R-1"
Single Family to "SP" Specific Use Permit District for the
construction of Single Family attached dwellings in ac-
cordance with a site plan; Tract "B" from "R-1" Single
Family Dwelling District to "C-2" Community Business Dis-
trict.

Mr. James R. Scott and Mr. Doug Ross were in attendance
and spoke in opposition to the requested zoning.
Mrs. Carolyn Keen, real estate agent representing the ,�
owner of the property in question (Nancy Ross Kelley
Rockwood) advised that they were in favor of the re-
quested zoning.
� ;�
The City Secretary then advised that she was in receipt
of letters from John S. Dunkin, Guy M. Kelley, Jr. ,
and S .M. Page, all property owners within two-hundred
feet, in which they expressed favortism for the proposed
zoning change.
There being little other discussion, Planning & Zoning

PUBLIC HEARING, ZONING APPLICATION Z81-27 , HUFF
The next order of business was for the City Council and
Planning & Zoning Commission to conduct a public hearing
on Zoning Application Z81-27 , submitted by J.D. Huff
and Laur Etta Huff.
Mayor Tate declared the public hearing open and called
upon the City Secretary to explain the requested zoning.
It was noted that the property in question was a tract
of land, 100 ' x 125 ' located on the west side of Dove
Road near its extreme northern end. Mrs . Armstrong
advised that on August 23, 1977, Ordinance Number 77-38
was approved which provided that the property in question
be zoned "SP" for the storage, sale, and off premise con-
sumption of beer incidental to the operation of a conven-
ience store. Because of expected park and recreational
facilities in the immediate area, the 1977 Ordinance con- -
tained a two year limitation, at the end of which the
property reverted ipso facto to "C-2" zoning. The Council
was therefore advised that the applicant was simply re-
questing a continuation of the Specific Use Permit zoning. """"
A brief presentation was then made by Mrs. Huff during which
she explained the nature of their business and the financial ,�:;�
hardship that the loss of the Specific Use Zoning would create.
05/05/81
Following a short discussion from the Council and
Planning and Zoning Commission, Mayor Tate asked if
there were guests to speak for or against the applica-
tion. There were none.
The City Secretary then read the following letter into
the record:
� -------------------------------------------
A.F. "Casey" Jones
� 6135 Crawford Lane
Fort Worth, Tx. 76119
Zoning Commission
City of Grapevine, Tx. 76051
Honorable Members of the Zoning Commission:
We are seeking a zoning change on the property
located at 2615 Dove Loop, which you refer to
in Zoning Application Z81-27 . Some years back
we were granted a temporary zoning "SP" Specific
Use Permit for the storage and retail sale and
off premise comsumption of alcoholic beverages
(beer only) on our "C-2" Community Business
zoning. For the past three years , Mr. & Mrs .
J.D. Huff have operated a convenience store
and have enjoyed a very nice business by being
able to offer their customers the same in the
beverages line as the other convenience stores
in the Grapevine trade area. Now, we are asking
that we be granted a permanent "SP�• Special Use
Permit, or zoning, in order that Mr• & Mrs. Huff
may continue their business as usual.
�"' This property is conveniently located for sports
people and picknickers who frequent the area,
and it goes without saying, beverages do have a
way of running-out. To have their favorite
beverages near the recreation area will save a
four mile round trip to the closest place where
such merchandise may be obtained, thus again,
the big saving in energy when you figure the
200 or more vehicles that would be plying the road
back to the highway to the closest beer supply.
Mr. & Mrs. J.D. Huff are a people of the highest
character and have operated their business in a
most exemplary manner, and will continue to do
so.
I respectfully request that you give this applica-
tion every consideration.
Thank you,
,� A.F. "Casey" Jones
