BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT CASE BZA08-04, ROBERT MART, 3526

The first item for the Board of Zoning Adjustment to consider was BZA08-04 submitted
by Robert Mart, for property located at 3526 Lakeridge Road, legally described as Lot
31, Lake Forest Addition. The following request was from Grapevine Comprehensive
Zoning Ordinance 82-73:
Section 15.G.1., "R-7.5" Single Family District, Area Regulations, requires a
minimum front yard setback of 30-feet. The applicant requested a variance and if
approved by the Board would allow a front yard setback of 16-feet along Lake Forest
Road.
Mr. Triplett explained that Staff found a special condition existed for the requested
variance. Specifically, this was an existing single family home built in 1963. When built
it was not located within the city limits of the City of Grapevine. The property was later
annexed into the City of Grapevine in May 1966.
Mr. Triplett stated that the subject property was zoned "R-7.5" Single Family District.
The owner intended to build an 88 square foot utility room addition on the north side of
the home; a 785-square foot second floor addition above the existing master bedroom;
enclosing and enlarging the existing carport and converting it into a garage. He further
stated that none of the proposed additions would increase the level of non -conformity to
the site. With no further questions for Mr. Triplett, the applicant, Robert Mart, of 707
Timber Lake Circle, Southlake, Texas, took the Oath of Truth; and explained to the
Board that he had purchased 3526 Lakeridge Road, and wanted to make
improvements. When his building contractor had the property surveyed, it showed the
existing residence was over the required front yard building line setback. When he
approached the city about building permits he was informed that a variance would be
required before any permits could be issued. He further stated that they had no
intentions to increase the level of non -conformity to the site, and requested favorable
consideration of his request and offered to answer any questions of the Board.
With no further questions for Mr. Triplett, and no additional speakers, Dennis Luers
made a motion to close the public hearing. Debbie Holt seconded the motion which
