NEW BUSINESS
BZA 89-37, HANOVER, INC.
The first item of new business was for the Board of Zoning Adjustment to
consider BZA 89-37, submitted by Hanover, Inc., who is requesting variances
to Grapevine Zoning Ordinance 82-73, Section 60.B.2.c. (4) which allows a
maximum 14 inch sign cabinet depth. A 22 inch variance is needed to allow
36 inches, and to Section 25.G.4 which requires a 20 foot buffer yard for
"CC", Community Commercial lots not part of a Planned Commercial Center.
The request is in conjunction with a Conditional Use Application 89-15, for
Lots 1-R, 3, 4 and 5, Block 1 of the Towne Center Addition.
Mike Bailey, with Hanover, Inc., 1918 North Arbor Oaks, Grand Prairie,
Texas, took the Oath of Truth. Mr. Bailey explained the reason for the
request for the 20' buffer to be removed, was to allow the new center to
abut the existing Walmart so it will tie in with the new shopping center.
Also Mr. Bailey explained that with the buildings being separate, there
would be a problem with trash and loitering between the buildings. Mr.
Bailey explained the 40' sign will be for Luby's, and will only be allowed
on the Highway 114 side. The total cabinet size will be 280 square feet.
With no one else to speak either for or against the request, Becky Swann
made a motion to close the Public Hearing. Gerald Thompson seconded the
motion which prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Giffin, Swann, Thompson, Bass
Nays: None
Absent: Truitt
Tcmiiy Hardy noted that having the shopping tie in to Walmart was also
planned when Kroger was planning on building at that location. He also
noted that a fire wall would be required.
After further discussion, Becky Swann made a motion that a special
condition existed for the sign variance. Gerald Thcmpson seconded the
motion which prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Giffin, Swann, Thompson, Bass
Nays: None
Absent: Truitt
Becky Swann made a motion that the special condition was the need to be
able to enter the sign for maintenance and to grant the variance to

Grapevine Zoning Ordinance 82-73, Section 60.B.2.c. (4) which allows a
maximum 14 inch sign cabinet depth (a 22 inch variance). Gerald Thompson
seconded the motion which prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Giffin, Swann, Thompson, Bass
Nays: None
Absent: Truitt
Becky Swann then made a motion that a special condition did exist for the
variance to the buffer requirements, which would be keeping with the
original site plan, and to grant a variance to Grapevine Zoning Ordinance
82-73, Section 25.G.4 to waive the 20' buffer yard for "CC", Community
Commercial lots, not part of a Planned Commercial Center. Gerald Thompson
seconded the motion which prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Giffin, Swann, Thompson, Bass
Nays: None
Absent: Truitt

The last item of new business for the Board of Zoning Adjustment to
consider was BZA89-38, submitted by Pulte Homes Corporation of Texas, who
is requesting a variance from Grapevine Zoning Ordinance 82-73, Section
60.B.I.c which requires development signs be removed within 4 years or
whenever 90% of an "R-7.5", Sinqle-Family Subdivision is developed. The
subject development sign located at 4701 Glenbrook Drive, Lot 1, Block 4,
of the Glade Crossing 1A Subdivision was considered July 6, 1987, as
BZA87-47; and a variance was approved to allow all four (4) sections of
Glade Crossing south of Hughes Road to be treated as one phase. 90% of
that area is developed; and that variance has expired.
Deborah Gray, Advertising Manager for Pulte Homes was present at the
December 4, 1989, meeting but was not present at tonight's meeting.
Joy Carroll stated she did notify property owners, but received no
correspondence.
Tommy Hardy explained that his Department had the administrative task of
monitoring the numbers of developed and undeveloped lots since the former
variance was approved to determine when it should be removed and that the
sign could easily be used for other advertising if not removed.
With no one else to speak either for or against the request, Becky Swann
made a motion to close the Public Hearing. Gerald Thompson seconded the
motion which prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Giffin, Swarm, Th son, Bass
Nays: None
Absent: Truitt
After further discussion, Becky Swann made a motion to deny the variance to
Grapevine Zoning Ordinance 82-73, Section 60.B.1.c. Patti Bass seconded
the motion which prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Giffin,
Nays: None
Absent: Truitt
