PUBLIC HEARING
BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT CASE BZA12-08, DAVID COX, 310 EAST
COLLEGE STREET
The next item for the Board of Zoning Adjustment to consider was BZA12-07 submitted
by David Cox for property located at 310 East College Street, proposed to be platted as
Lot 5BA, Block 22, City of Grapevine Addition.
Section 15.G.4., "R-7.5" Single Family District, Area Regulations requires a
minimum lot width of sixty-five (65') feet.
The applicant requested a variance of eighteen (18') feet allowing a lot width of forty-
seven (47')feet for an existing lot.
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 remaining residential structure
to remain as developed and the expansion of the residential structure as shown on the
� plot plan.
Mr. Triplett explained that Staff found a special condition existed for the requested
variance and special exception. Specifically, the City of Grapevine Addition was
originally platted in 1913 predating the City's first zoning ordinance. The sale of property
by deed had reshaped original boundaries of the subject property and adjacent sites
and developed lots existed adjacent to the subject site eliminating the possibility of
expanding the lot to meet the lot width.
He stated that there were two tracts of land under common ownership that were being
platted into one parcel and Tarrant Appraisal District records indicated that the original
dwelling was built in 1925.
With no questions for Mr. Triplett, David Cox of 617 Rancho Laredo Trail, Southlake,
Texas, took the Oath of Truth; and requested favorable consideration of his request and
offered to answer any questions of the Board.
Debbie Holt asked about trees on the site plan. Mr. Cox stated that there was an 80
year old tree in the front yard they wanted to preserve. He stated that they had
consulted an arborist and was told that pouring a concrete driveway would kill the tree.
He stated that they had elected to install crushed granite.
� Robert Rainwater asked Staff if crushed granite was considered impervious or pervious.
Ron Stombaugh stated that crushed granite would be considered pervious. He also
stated that Historic Preservation had approved the use of crushed granite.
With no further questions for Mr. Cox and no additional speakers, Ron Cook made a
motion to close the public hearing. Robert Rainwater seconded the motion which
prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Holt, Cook, Rainwater, White, Dalton
Nays: None
Absent: None
Ken White made a motion that a special condition existed for the special exception and
variance requested. Specifically, the City of Grapevine Addition was originally platted in
1913 predating the City's first zoning ordinance. The sale of property by deed had
reshaped original boundaries of the subject property and adjacent site. Developed lots
existed adjacent to the subject site eliminating the possibility of expanding the lot to
meet the lot width. Ron Cook seconded the motion which prevailed by the following
vote:
Ayes: Holt, Cook, Rainwater, White, Dalton
Nays: None
Absent: None
� Ken White then made a motion to grant the following special exception with regard to
Section 43.E.3., Nonconforming Uses and Structures allowing the remaining residential
2 Board M Zoning Adju�me 2
structure to remain as developed and the expansion of the residential structure as
shown on the plot plan.
� Ken White then made a motion that a special condition existed with regard to the
following variance to "R-7.5" Single Family District, Area Regulations: Section 15.G.4.,
allowing a lot width of forty-seven feet (47') for an existing lot. Robert Rainwater
seconded the motion which prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Holt, Cook, Rainwater, White, Dalton
Nays: None
Absent: None
BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT CASE BZA12-09, TERRY BROCKETT, 2001
STATE HIGHWAY 121
The next item for the Board of Zoning Adjustment to consider was BZA12-09 submitted
by Terry Brockett for property located at 2001 State Highway 121, legally described as
Lot 4, Block 1, 121 & 26 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 structure to remain as
� developed as shown on the plot plan.
Section 60.H.5.a., Sign Standards, Required Setback, requires a minimum setback
of ten-feet (10').
The applicant requested a variance of ten-feet (10') for the relocation of a pole sign
relative to the future widening of State Highway 121.
Mr. Triplett explained that Staff found a special condition existed for the special
exception and variance requested. Specifically, this existing platted and developed lot
was in complete compliance with all development criteria.
He further stated that the proposed widening of State Highway 121 and the acquisition
of approximately 21-feet of frontage from the subject property had created a condition in
which the existing sign no longer met the required setback, as well as other
nonconformities relative to building and landscaping setback requirements.
With no questions for Mr. Triplett, Terry Brockett of 7923 East McKinney, Denton,
Texas, took the Oath of Truth; and requested favorable consideration of his request and
offered to answer any questions of the Board.
Robert Rainwater asked if the sign height would remain the same. Mr. Brockett stated
that it would.
