Knearem, for property located at 1586 South Gravel Circle, proposed to be platted as Lots 1 & 2, Block 1, Knearem Addition. 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 to allow the existing residential structure to remain as developed as shown on the plot plan. � Mr. Triplett explained that Staff found a special condition existed for the requested special exception. Specifically, the subject site was an existing developed lot, and the � existing residential structure was built in 1955 coinciding with the adoption of the first City zoning ordinance in 1955. Mr. Triplett stated that on February 16, 2010 Council approved on the first reading of an ordinance a zone change request from "R-20" Single Family District to "R-7.5" Single Family District. The second reading of the ordinance, preliminary and final plat for the subject site was scheduled to be considered by the Council at their April 20, 2010 meeting. With no questions for Mr. Triplett, the applicant, Scott T. Knearem, of 1586 South Gravel Circle, Grapevine, Texas, took the Oath of Truth; he gave a brief presentation to the Board and requested favorable consideration of his request and offered to answer any questions of the Board. With no further questions for Mr. Knearem, and no additional speakers, Richard Adams made a motion to close the public hearing. Debbie Holt seconded the motion which prevailed by the following vote: Ayes: Hecht, Cook, Holt, Adams, VanTil Nays: None Absent: Luers � Richard Adams made a motion that a special condition existed for the requested special exception. Specifically, the subject site was an existing developed lot, and the existing residential structure was built in 1955 coinciding with the adoption of the first City zoning ordinance in 1955.

WOODS AVENUE � The next item for the Board of Zoning Adjustment to consider was BZA10-03 submitted by Joseph Mutter, representing CVS Realty Company, for property located at 3701 Ira E. Woods Avenue, and platted as Lot 1, Block 1, CVS Addition. 2 BoaM of 2orrirg AdjustrneM 4!5/2010 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 existing structure and property to remain as developed as shown on the site plan. Section 60.J.5.a, "Sign Standards", Required Setback, requires a minimum setback of 10-feet (10'). The applicant requested a variance of ten-feet (10') for the relocation of a monument sign relative to the future widening of Ira E. Woods Avenue (S.H. 26) eliminating the setback. Mr. Triplett explained that Staff found a special condition existed for the requested variance and special exception. Specifically, the existing platted and developed lot was in complete compliance with all development criteria as stated within the zoning ordinance, however, the proposed widening of Ira E. Woods Avenue (S.H. 26) and the resulting taking of approximately 25-feet of frontage along the north side of the subject property had created a condition in which the former sign could no longer meet the minimum setback requirement. He further added that the right-of-way acquisition had created a nonconformance due to the elimination of the landscaped setback area adjacent to Ira E. Woods Avenue. He went on to explain that the monument sign was proposed to be located within an existing planter island and the existing shrubs and tree within the planter island would be replaced elsewhere on site. The proposed widening of Ira E. Woods Avenue had � created potential compliance issues for practically all properties fronting on Ira E. Woods Avenue. With no further questions for Mr. Triplett, Joseph Mier with Chandler Signs of 3618 Bobtown Road, Garland, Texas, representing property owner CVS Realty Company, took the Oath of Truth; he gave a brief presentation to the Board and requested favorable consideration of his request and offered to answer any questions of the Board. With no further questions for Mr. Mier, and no additional speakers, John VanTil made a motion to close the public hearing.

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 to allow the site to remain as developed as shown on the site plan. Mr. Triplett explained that Staff found a special condition existed for the requested special exception. Specifically, the site developed in 1970 with the existing mini-storage facility in compliance under the established guidelines at that time (Ord. 70-10). The mini-storage facility was noncompliant with the current zoning ordinance (82-73) relative to uses permitted in the Central Business District. The mini-storage facility may remain as developed, and continue its nonconforming status until such time the use is abandoned or destroyed beyond sixty (60) percent of replacement value. Mr. Triplett stated that the property was currently zoned "CBD" Central Business District, and received Historic Landmark Subdistrict designation on March 16, 2010. It was the applicant's intent to expand the existing 2,198 square foot metal building to 3,638 square feet for the Ohlook Performing Arts Center. The expansion would necessitate a special exception request for the existing mini-storage facility, as well as a replat of the subject site. A companion parking plan (PP10-01) for the proposed expansion was tabled by the Planning and Zoning Commission at the same meeting. The parking plan and the replat are expected to be considered by the Council at their April 20, 2010 meeting.
