PUBLIC HEARING
BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT CASE BZA15 -15, NEAL COOPER, 511 ESTILL
STREET
The first item for the Board of Zoning Adjustment to consider was BZA15 -15 submitted
by Neal Cooper for property located at 511 Estill Street, platted as Lot 4, Block 100,
College Heights Addition.
Section 15.F.2., "R -7.5" Single Family District, Density Requirements, requires a
minimum lot area of 7,500 square feet. The applicant requested a variance of 875
square feet allowing a lot area of 6,625 square feet for an existing lot.
Section 15.G.4., "R -7.5" Single Family District, Area Regulations, requires a
minimum lot width of sixty -five feet (65'). The applicant requested a variance of
fifteen -feet (15') allowing a lot width of fifty -feet (50') 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 is requesting a special exception to allow the existing residential
structure to remain as developed along with an expansion as shown on the plot plan.
Mr. Triplett explained that Staff found special conditions existed for the requested
special exception and variances. Specifically, the subject lot was originally platted in
1909 predating the City's first zoning ordinance adopted in 1955. Developed and
platted property and right -of -way existed adjacent to the site on the east, west, north
and south property lines respectively, eliminating the possibility to expand the site to
meet the area and width requirements. The existing structure was built in 1968 prior to
the rezoning of the subject site in the 1984 City Rezoning to "R -7.5" Single Family
District. The site was noncompliant with the current Zoning Ordinance (82 -73) relative to
the required 30 -foot front yard setback adjacent to the south property line and the
required six foot side yard setback adjacent to the east and west property lines for the
existing dwelling.
Mr. Triplett stated that on January 4, 1999 the Board of Zoning Adjustment approved
case 98 -43 allowing an existing residential structure to remain as developed and a 480 -
square foot expansion on the existing lot, the expansion was never constructed. He
went on to explain that the owner intended to construct a 650 square foot addition to the
rear of the existing 781 square foot dwelling and a 424 square foot detached garage in
the rear yard. The Historic Preservation Commission at the November 2015 meeting
approved CA15 -100 on the subject site for the proposed expansion.
With no questions for Mr. Triplett, Neal Cooper, representing property owner Seung Lee
of 511 Estill Street, 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 questions for Mr. Cooper and no additional speakers, Robert Rainwater made a
motion to close the public hearing. George Dalton seconded the motion which prevailed
by the following vote:
Ayes:
Holt, Rainwater, White, Dalton, Morris
Nays:
