PUBLIC HEARING
BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT CASE BZA15-04, RICK BLAZEK, 234 EAST
FRANKLIN STREET
The first item for the Board of Zoning Adjustment to consider was BZA15-04 submitted
by Rick Blazek for property located at 234 East Franklin Street, platted as Lot 2C & 3A,
Block 31, City of Grapevine Addition.
Section 15.G.4., "R-7.5" Single Family District, Area Regulations, requires a
minimum lot width of 95-feet. The applicant requested a variance of thirty-five feet
(35') allowing a lot width of sixty (60') 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 allowing the existing residential
structure to remain as developed along with an expansion 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 subject site was originally platted in
1913 predating the City's first zoning ordinance adopted in 1955. Developed property
and right-of-way existed adjacent to the subject site to the west and east respectively,
eliminating the possibility to expand the site to meet the width requirements.
� Mr. Triplett went on to explain that on April 22, 2015 Historic Preservation Commission
approved a Certificate of Appropriateness to construct an addition, bedroom, porch and
covered terrace as well as a second story addition containing a bedroom, den and an
attached single car garage and a single car covered carport at the rear of the property.
With no questions for Mr. Triplett, Josh Archer, representing property owner Rick Blazek
of 8233 Mid Cities Boulevard, North Richland Hills, Texas, took the Oath of Truth; he
gave a brief presentation to the Board and requested favorable consideration of the
request and offered to answer any questions of the Board.
Chairman Holt announced that one (1) letter of approval had been received.
With no questions for Mr. Archer and no additional speakers, Robert Rainwater made a
motion to close the public hearing. Mike Morris seconded the motion which prevailed by
the following vote:
Ayes: Holt, Rainwater, White, Dalton, Morris
Nays: None
Absent: None

eliminating the possibility to expand the site to meet the width requirements. Robert

Nays: None
Absent: None
Ken White then made a motion to grant the following variance to "R-7.5" Single Family
District, Area Regulations: Section 15.G.4., allowing a lot width of 60-feet (60') for an
