Next for the Commission to consider and make a recommendation to the City Council was the amendments to Appendix D, City of Grapevine Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance 82 -73, specifically to amend Section 54, Masonry Requirements relative to approval of an exterior wall finish system, Section 16, R -5.0 Zero Lot Line District relative to a reduction of the front yard setback requirement to be allowed as a conditional use permit if granted by Council; and Section 48, Conditional Use Permit requirements relative to site plan requirements. This request was generated by staff to recommend that the City Council and Planning and Zoning Commission consider an addition to Section 54, Masonry Requirements, specifically the inclusion of "Fibre Reinforced Cementitious Board" as an approved exterior wall covering. These materials are capable of providing the appearance of wood, resistant to moisture and rot, non - combustible, and may be incorporated into fire rated wall assemblies. A request was also submitted by Mr. Martin W. Schelling concerning Section 16, "R- 5.0 ", Zero Lot Line District Regulations, relative to Section 16.C, Conditional Uses, specifically to add an additional subsection. The proposed subsection, Section 16.C.6, would allow Single Family detached dwellings to have a minimum front yard of twenty (20) feet as a conditional use when said dwellings are period homes. The current minimum front yard setback in the "R -5.0" - Zero Lot Line District is twenty - five (25) feet. Furthermore, the conditional use would require all lots fronting on one side of a street between two (2) intersecting streets to maintain a twenty (20) foot front yard setback for the entire block. If the amendment is approved, it would allow a minimum front yard setback of twenty (20) feet in the "R -5.0" - Zero Lot Line District as a conditional use for period homes. An amendment to Section 48.D, specifically the addition of, "A site plan is not required for property zoned R -5.0 Zero Lot Line District" was facilitated by the request for amendments to Section 16.C. The requirement of a site plan for a conditional use under Section 16.C.6 would be difficult due to the nature of single - family development. The site plan requirement would require the developer to tie down specific structures to lots and would allow for no variation in dwelling unit design as the subdivision develops. With no questions, guests to speak, nor letters or petitions, the public hearing was closed. In the Commission's deliberation session Chris Coy moved, with a second by Kathy 021798 5 P & Z JOINT PUBLIC HEARING FEBRUARY 17, 1998 Martinez, to approve the amendments to Appendix D, the City of Grapevine Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance 82-73, Section 54, Masonry Requirements, Section 16, "R-5.0" Zero-Lot-Line District, and Section 48 Conditional Uses with changes in Section 16.C.6. paragraph 2 to read "When a twenty (20) foot front yard depth is established by a Conditional use Permit, all lots fronting on one side of a street between two (2) intersecting streets, shall maintain a uniform front yard setback for the entire block." And paragraph 3 to read "Final elevations of proposed period homes, with type or kind of building material used, and a final plat shall be submitted as a part of the conditional use permit request. Calculation of the percentage of masonry of the entire structure shall be provided in the application for the conditional use permit. A Period Home Committee consisting of a member of the Planning and Zoning Commission (appointed by the Planning and Zoning Chairman), the City Council representative to the Planning and Zoning Commission, and the Township Restoration Coordinator may approve additional period home elevations or amendments to existing elevations when a conditional use permit is approved for period homes.
