ITEM 6C. CITIZENS COMMENTS, MARTIN DIXON
Mr. Martin Dixon, 717 Cabernet Court, Heritage Place Homeowners Association President
read the following letter into the record:
Thank you Mayor Tate and City Council for the opportunity to address you.
My name is Martin Dixon and I am the Homeowners Association President of
the Heritage Place Neighborhood of 44 homes which surrounds Nash Farm.
I would like to first acknowledge the City Leadership for developing
Grapevine into a truly one of a kind community for both citizens and visitors
to enjoy. There is no other community in the entire DFW area I would rather
live.
As Grapevine has changed so has its oldest remaining farm, Nash Farm.
The Heritage Foundation and the Nash Farm committee have done a
wonderful job over the past 10 years restoring the farmhouse and property to
its original state. Our neighborhood is very appreciative of this effort. We
have regularly corralled neighbors to help with pumpkin washing during the
Fall festival and support of other activities at the Farm.
We are also appreciative of the efforts to remain true to the original mission.
The original mission was to create a historically accurate representation of
life on the original working farm, for citizens, area schools, and visitors to
enjoy. I know this, because from 2006-2009 I served as our neighborhood
Liaison on the Nash Farm Committee.
It has come to our attention that there are changes to the Farm currently
being considered. After reviewing the plan, our neighborhood would like to
voice the following concerns:
1. We request that the entirety of the farm be designated a Historic
Landmark, ensuring that any changes undergo the same review
process required of all properties residing within the Grapevine
historic overlay. This is the original Grapevine farm, and it deserves
this protection. We request that this designation take place prior to
any changes currently being considered.
6
04/17/12
2. We question the appropriateness of moving two non-original
structures (the Estell House and the Soil Conservation Property) to
the Farm.
3. We suggest that efforts are made to utilize interior fencing to contain
livestock and structures on the farm, and minimize perimeter fencing
where possible.
4. We are very concerned that further development and utilization of the
farm will exacerbate existing parking issues in our neighborhood
during Nash Farm events. This has become a serious neighborhood
issue over the past 2 years.
5. We are equally concerned of the prospect for increased utilization of
the Farm without a clear understanding of increased safety and crime
prevention measures.
6. We are not pleased at the prospect of a service entrance to the Farm
being placed on the west side of Homestead Drive. This is a
residential drive, and this seems inappropriate.
We understand that a Special Meeting of the Nash Farm Committee and the
Heritage Foundation Board is being held tomorrow at 4 pm at the Pole Barn
of Nash Farm to move forward on a plan to further develop the Farm. We
are not opposed to further development consistent with the original mission
of the Farm, but we are seriously opposed to the City moving forward at this
time without further consideration of our concerns.
Thanks again for your time and consideration.
ITEM 6D. CITIZENS COMMENTS, JON JONES
Mr. Jon Jones, 718 Cabernet Court, expressed concern on the proposed location of the
Estell House on Nash Farm, and with the agenda order of the April 18, 2012 Joint
Grapevine Heritage Foundation and Nash Farm Committee Meeting relative to the historic
overlay and zoning for Nash Farm.
ITEM 6. ORDINANCE,AMEND CHAPTER 12 HEALTH AND SANITATION, OIL AND
