P. Herring Survey� Abstract No. 663. The C-2 zoning is for a 6 acre tract � fronting on Dove Road� and the R-3 zoning is for a 21.13 acre tract south and adjoining the 6 acres. Mr. Franks made the presentation, giving a brief history and also a slide presentation of the 27 acres. Iie presented a preliminary sketch of what the owners and archetect had conceived for the property. Mr. Franks stated that he would like the members of the Planning & Zon�:ng Commission and the City Council to consider his appLication for a "C-1" zoning because he felt that it had sufficient uses for what they had in mind for this 6 acres. Mr. Franks further stated that he was receptive to having certain restrictions placed on hi.m under a 'rSP" Specific Use Permit District as to density and location of roads through the tract. He also stated that he felt this particular zoning would be harmonious to the area: C-2 on the East, R-3 to the West, and r'PDr` to the North of his property. After a short discussion by the members of the Council and Planning & Zoning Commission, several citizens were recognized at the hearing. Mrs. Richard Trumble of 1616 Chateau Circle was recognized and she stated that she was against the zoning. Mrs. Frank Pilney of 13� Tipperary Dr. was recognized and she stated that she also was against the zoning because she was concerned about the high amount of �tiensity in this area if the zoning is approved. The City Secretary introduced a letter signed by property owners directly north of this tract in the Marina Del Rey townhomes. The letter was signed by �+ of 23 property owners within 200 feet of the tract who were against the rezoning, It was determined that this was not a large enough percentage (20fo) property owners to require a 2�3 ma�ority vote by _.the Council. `�ANDTING & ZONING CONIMISSION: Member Jerry Jordan made a motion to close their portion of the Public Hearing on Zoning Application Z-74-10.

Jurie 22, 197� Mr. Kenneth Pritt, Sec. City of Grapevine P.O. Drwr. 307 w Dear Mr. Pritt; ' This letter is in re�ards to Zoning A,pplication Z-71+-10 to b� held dune 25, 197�, which proposes to rezone 27.13 acres from Single Family to Mutliple Family and Community Business. The property involved is across the street from oux homes in the Marina Del Rey Townhomes. This project is still in the early stages of devel�pment� and we purchased with the belief that this ar�a of Grapevine would pe developed for individual hom� owners. Now, apartment complexes are being bui.lt to the east of us, and should this zoning change be approved, they would close in from the south also. The continuing buildin� of multi-family rental property can only depress the value of our property in the future, and dis- coura�e further development of single family residences in this imm,ediate area. Therefor�, we strongl.y oppose the proposed amendment to rezone this property from R-l. , Very truly yours, �s� Mr. &-Mrs. Trumble �616 cha.teau Circle Nlx. & Mrs. Hightower 1608 Chateau Circle Mr. & Mrs. Marshall 1606 Chateau Circle.

Mr. Graves stated that he would be receptive to placir� attractive fencing on the rear of his lot to screen it from the homes on Starnes Street. Mrs. L. B. Rice of 225 N. Starnes was recognized and she stated that she was against the requested zoning because she felt this building would be a warehc�use and would be noisy, and would devalue the neighborhood. Mr. Jack Gifford of 221 PT. Starnea was recognized and he stated that he was against th� zoning request. Mr. Ra,y Hobratseh of 2623 Hudnall 5�., Dallas, was recognized and he also stated that he was against the zoning request because he felt that a building of this type w�ould lessen the value of the neighborhood.
