NEW BUSINESS BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT CASE BZA06-07, FAITH CHRISTIAN SCHOOL, 730 EAST WORTH STREET Board of Zoning Adjustment 07/10/06 The first item for the Board of Zoning Adjustment to consider was BZA06-07 submitted (W by Ed Smith representing Faith Christian School, for property located at 730 East Worth Street, proposed to be platted as Lot 2, Block B, Faith Christian School Addition. The following request was from Grapevine Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance 82-73: Section 43.E.3., Nonconforming Uses and Structures allows The Board of Zoning Adjustment to approve the remodeling and/or enlargement of a nonconforming use. The applicant requested a Special Exception and if approved by the Board, would allow the continued operation of the subject site as the Faith Christian School, as shown on the plot plan. Mr. Stombaugh explained that Staff found a special condition for the requested Special Exception. Specifically, the subject property and property to the north was originally developed in 1907 as a school serving the Grapevine area, and was last used by the Grapevine-Colleyville Independent School District as the Grapevine Middle School. The school's basic configuration was completed in the early 1950's which predated the City's first zoning ordinance adopted in 1955. The subject property was later rezoned to "GU" Governmental Use District during the 1984 citywide rezoning. On July 18th City Council would consider the rezoning from "GU" Governmental Use District to "R-7.5" Single Family District; they would also consider a Conditional Use Permit to continue operation as a non-profit school. The subject structure would not meet set back requirements for "R-7.5" Single Family District which was the reason it was before the Board. With no further questions for Mr. Stombaugh, the applicant, Dr. Ed Smith of 1013 Honeysuckle, Grapevine, Texas, representing Faith Christian School took the Oath of Truth and requested favorable consideration of his request and offered to answer any questions of the Board. Dennis Luers asked Dr. Smith to describe the use of the structure; he stated that it was being used for a workshop and weight room. Chairman Hecht announced that three (3) letters of approval had been received, one (1) of the letters stated that they were not in favor of an expansion. Chairman Hecht asked Dr. Smith if the school had plans of expansion; he stated that there were no plans to expand this structure; however there were plans to bring in additional portable classrooms, other than upgrading existing structures, or rerouting on -campus driveways there were no future plans of expansion. With no further questions for Dr. Smith, and no additional speakers, Dennis Luers made a motion to close the public hearing.

The following request was from Grapevine Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance 82-73: Section 43.E.3., Nonconforming Uses and Structures allows The Board of Zoning Adjustment to approve the remodeling and/or enlargement of a nonconforming use. The applicant requested a Special Exception and if approved by the Board, would allow construction of a 520 square foot addition to an existing 780 square foot nonconforming structure for an office as shown on the plot plan. Mr. Stombaugh explained that Staff found a special condition for the requested Special Exception.

Originally built in 1937 as a single family residence, the bulk of the property north 3 Board of Zoning Adjustment 07/10/06 of Wall Street to Northwest Highway was rezoned to a commercial category in the 1970's thus making the single family developed lots in this vicinity nonconforming.

Areas of nonconformity included landscaping setbacks relative to parking and vehicle use areas and exterior masonry on the existing structure and the proposed addition. With no further questions for Mr. Stombaugh, the applicant, Lannie D.
