When Section 60 was created it was the feeling that because of the diversity of various governmental uses and an inability to regulate some of those uses because of federal and state mandates that the sign standards would not be extended to the GU Governmental Use District. Because of signs recently erected at the Grapevine Heritage property and depot, Sharon Spencer asked that the Planning and Zoning Commission look at the possibility of regulating signs in the Governmental Use District. Since Governmental Use Districts have been established throughout Grapevine and they are mostly adjacent to both residential and commercial/industrial districts, Staff thought that it would be inappropriate to develop sign criteria specifically for the GU Governmental Use District. To be consistent with surrounding development, the attached draft requires that governmental use signage meet the requirements of the most restrictive abutting zoning. This would make the sign requirements in Governmental Use Districts consistent with the adjacent property. After discussion, the Commissioners directed staff to develop sign criteria specifically for the GU Governmental Use District, finding that most schools and parks are adjacent to residentially zoned property, therefore would not be allowed signage. No further action was taken. DISCUSSION REGARDING SECTION 50., SCREENING REGULATIONS Next for the Commission to consider was the proposed amendments to Section 50 relative to plastic composition fence as an addition to screening Alternate "E". At the March 23, 1998 joint public hearing the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council approved a conditional use permit for outside storage for Able Machinery on property located in the Westport Business Park. Prior to the public hearing the applicant had requested that he be allowed to screen the outside storage area with a product called "Plasti-Fence," an all plastic composition fence, in lieu of a masonry or wood composition fence. The "Plasti-Fence" is constructed of recycled plastics made to resemble a wood composition fence. This type of fence is not currently a part of the screening alternatives as noted in Section 50, Screening Regulations. The applicant for Able Machinery has asked that the Planning and Zoning Commission consider modifying Section 50, Screening Regulations to include the "Plasti-Fence" as an appropriate screening alternative. After discussion, the Commissioners directed staff to develop criteria regarding thickness of the plastic composition in order to eliminate the possibility of plastic tarps, trash bags, etc. being requested for screening. No further action was taken.
