BACKGROUND:
At the August 16, 2022, City Council meeting, the Council approved a request to call a
public hearing for the purposes of amending the Hotel or Motel requirements. During
staff’s presentation, requests were made to move the indoor or outdoor pool to a required
feature, require at least four features to the amenities list, and to further clarify and provide
examples for the proposed “outdoor flexible space” and “outdoor recreation and play
space.” To that end, staff has made the following changes to the Zoning Ordinance text
amendment that is attached as Exhibit 1 to this agenda memorandum, including:
AM22-01.4.docx 2
• Moving the swimming pool from an optional amenity to a required feature;
• Keeping a full-service indoor exercise facility as an optional amenity and renaming
it from “gym”;
• Adding a business or professional center and spa and wellness area as optional
amenities;
• Clarifying and providing examples of outdoor flexible space and establishing a
minimum area; and
• Clarifying and providing examples of outdoor recreation and play space and
establishing a minimum area.
On May 17, 2022, the Commission held another workshop where staff presented a draft
amendment to solicit feedback. Topics included: amendment to the Hotel or
Motel definition, creation of a definition for Boutique Hotel; amendment to use-specific
standards and parking requirements; creation of a parking reduction program; allowing
the Planned Development Overlay tool to be utilized to vary site design requirements;
and vesting language for hotels or motels developed in the City prior to 2005.
The Commission posed additional questions and comments based on staff’s
presentation, which are provided below:
• Will grab-and-go options rather than a full-service kitchen promote smaller
hotels/motels?
• Set new parking minimum requirements for hotels/motels.
• Vary parking requirements through a conditional use permit rather than
establishing a new program, variance, or waiver procedure.
• Hotels are moving right outside of Grapevine and are listed as located in Grapevine
- are we losing out?
• Are standards for hotels/motels applicable to boutique hotels?
The Commission asked Planning Services staff to update the language in the ordinance
for Hotel or Motel uses to better align with current market offerings, establish parking
minimums to address parking requirement concerns for existing legal nonconforming
hotels/motels, and allow additional flexibility to existing and future hotels. The
Commission was not in favor of a proposed parking reduction program option or allowing
legal nonconforming hotels/motels to expand without the approval of a conditional use
permit. Furthermore, the Commission has requested that Planning Services staff draft
and organize definition options for a boutique hotel for their consideration.
At the joint Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council workshop on October 25,
2021, city staff briefed the Council and Commission on major changes occurring in the
hospitality industry post-COVID-19. As a result, offerings by hotel developers and
operators are trending in the hotel industry utilizing “segmentation” to introduce different
hotel brands meant to meet the unique demands of changing demographics. Current
offerings in hotel branding and design lend themselves toward vibrant and interactive
common spaces, grab-and-go food service, 24-hour fitness options, free wireless internet
(wi-fi), contactless guest experiences (e.g. check-in), blending of work and family travel
AM22-01.4.docx 3
(also known as “Bleisure”), ride-sharing, social networking, and passive outdoor
recreation features including fire pits and patio seating that are electronic device friendly.
ISSUES:
Boutique Hotels
Boutique hotels are typically smaller offerings in the market with a distinct personality and
specialized and personalized amenities. These increasingly popular hotel products would
not currently be permitted within any zoning district except for “GU”, Government Use
District due to the established use-specific standards found in the Zoning Ordinance.
Planning Services staff proposes to create a definition for a new use of Boutique Hotel
and suggest appropriate zoning districts where it would be permissible through approval
of a conditional use permit by the Commission and Council. Boutique hotels would not be
subject to the same guest room count, guest room size, and minimum amenities required
of all other hotels or motels.
Use-Specific Standards
Planning Services staff informed the Commission and Council that trends in industry
segmentations have created challenges for the City of Grapevine and others who have
defined what quality hotel development should look like through use-specific standards,
such as minimum guest room numbers, minimum floor area per guest room, required full-
service restaurants and/or meeting spaces and onsite amenities. At this time 11 of the 19
hotels within the City of Grapevine do not meet the current use-specific standards.
Fourteen of these hotels were developed before January 2005.
Planning Services staff requests to amend the current use-specific standards by reducing
the required number of guest rooms, reducing minimum room size, and allowing hotel or
motel developers to select a minimum of four (4) amenity features from a list that includes
previously required amenities and expands the amenity options.
Parking
There are currently four separate parking ratio requirements depending on if the hotel has
a restaurant, club, or conference meeting space. Hotels or Motels with conference areas
are further separated based on the range of area dedicated to the conference area.
Planning Services staff requests to simplify the parking ratio and allow it to be varied at
the discretion of Council through the conditional use permit process.
Planned Development Overlay
The “PD”, Planned Development Overlay is a planning tool that should be utilized to
improve property with a goal of establishing unique as well as modern urban development
in situations where strict adherence to standard zoning criteria inhibits the creative
process. To that end, currently Hotels or Motels are expressly excepted and cannot utilize
AM22-01.4.docx 4
this tool to vary site design requirements. This poses a steep hurdle for existing legally
non-conforming hotels in the city, of which there are 11 of 21. Staff is proposing to remove
this existing limitation and allow new or existing hotels or motels requesting to improve
their property the ability to utilize this tool in their request(s) to Council.
The proposed draft revisions depicted in a strikethrough/underline format to show
deletions and insertions found throughout various sections of the Zoning Ordinance are
attached.
