The following request was from Grapevine Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance 82-73: Section 43.E.3., Nonconforming Uses allows The Board of Zoning Adjustment to approve the remodeling or enlargement of a nonconforming use. Board of Zoning Adjustment 02/27/06 The applicant requested a Special Exception and if approved by the Board, would allow (W the construction of a 625 square foot addition to an existing nonconforming office building as shown on the plot plan. Mr. Williams explained that Staff found special conditions for the requested Special Exception. Specifically, this was an existing nonconforming building and lot. The property could not be expanded due to being a corner lot with development existing on the non street sides. Additionally, requiring masonry to be installed would be impractical and aesthetically detrimental to both the subject structure as well as the existing neighborhood.
