BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT CASE BZA08-01. RICHARD PEMBERTON,

The next item for the Board of Zoning Adjustment to consider was BZA08-01 submitted
by Richard Pemberton, for property located at 1121 Airline Drive, legally described as
Lot 4, Block 4, J.J. Daniel Addition. The following request was from Grapevine
Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance 82-73:
Section 15.H, "R-7.5" Single Family District, Buffer Area Regulations, requires a
minimum buffer distance of forty -feet (40') whenever an R-7.5 Single Family
development is located adjacent to a non-residential district. The applicant
requested a variance and if approved by the Board would allow a buffer distance of six -
feet (6') adjacent to the south property line respectively.
Mr. Triplett explained that Staff found a special condition existed for the requested
(W variance. Specifically, the subject lot in its current configuration was platted in 1947 as
part of the original plat of the J. J. Daniel Addition predating the City's first zoning
ordinance adopted in 1955. Strict adherence to the buffer requirement to the south
would render the property unbuildable.
Mr. Triplett stated that the subject property was zoned "R-7.5" Single Family District.
The property to the immediate south of the subject property was zoned "PO"
Professional Office District. All setback requirements relative to the "R-7.5" Single
Family District i.e. front, rear, and both side yard setbacks, would be met. The owner
intended to build a single story home of approximately 1,800 square feet on the subject
property. With no further questions for Mr. Triplett, the applicant, Richard Pemberton, of
1701 Dunn Street, Grapevine, Texas, took the Oath of Truth; and requested favorable
consideration of his request and offered to answer any questions of the Board.

Hecht, Luers, Cook, Holt, Adams
Nays:
None
