ITEM 1 PUBLIC HEARING ZONING APPLICATION Z97-14 AND CONDITIONAL
USE APPLICATION CU97-31, ESPARZA'S RESTAURANT
Mayor Tate declared the public hearing open.
Development Services Director H. T. Hardy reported Zoning Application Z97-14 and
Conditional Use Application CU97-31 had been filed by Esparza's Restaurant on property
located at 124 East Worth Street. Zoning Application Z97-14 requests rezoning of
approximately 0.438 acres from "R-7.5" Single-Family District Regulations to "CBD"
; Central Business District. Conditional Use Application CU97-31 requests a waiver to
specific requirements of Section 47E.2 pursuant to Section 47F of Ordinance No. 82-73,
as amended, and requests a conditional use permit for an amendment to the site plan
approved by Ordinance No. 90-10 to allow for the physical expansion of the site plan to
allow for more off-street parking and the expansion of the location of on-premise alcoholic
beverage sales (beer, wine and mixed beverages) in conjunction with the operation of a
restaurant. Mr. Hardy reported the applicant is proposing all vehicular and pedestrian
access from Worth Street, increasing the number of off-street parking spaces to 51 and
proposing the on-premise consumption of alcoholic beverages (beer, wine and mixed
beverages) to include the exterior wooden deck on the west side of the building.
Mr. John Levitt requested favorable consideration of the application briefly reviewing the
proposed parking plans and the utilization of the deck on the west side of the building as
a customer waiting area.
Questions from the City Council and the Planning & Zoning Commission centered on the
; loss of the large trees in the proposed parking lot versus the needed parking spaces and
landscaping of the parking lot island. It was noted 104 parking spaces are required for the
development and all available space should be maximized for parking.
Mayor Tate invited guests present to comment regarding the application.
Mr. Ed Vacula, 3421 Lakeview, addressed the City Council and the Planning & Zoning
Commission expressing his and his neighbors support for the zoning and conditional use
applications.
City Secretary Linda Huff read the following letters into the record:
To: The City Council & Planning & Zoning Commission
Re: File #Z97-14 and CU97-31, Esparza's Restaurants
Dear Council, Mayor and Zoning Commission:
My name is Dee McNosky. My husband, Tony, and I jointly own the homes on 414
Smith St. and 408 Smith St. We reside at 5108 Pleasant Run Road in Colleyville.
We apologize for not being able to attend the meeting of July 1 st. I will be in
Atlanta and my husband works evenings.
� 2
' `iY#�3 s � ..
07/01/97
I would like this letter to be read into the minutes of the meeting July 1, 1997, 7:30
p. m.
We originally lived at 414 Smith Street. It has been a rented home since 1979.
When Lucas operated a Funeral Home at the location Esparza's now occupies,
there was never any negative impact to the community at large, or our homes
specifically, due to their normal business operations.
Since Esparza's was established, there have been ever increasing problems that
are continuing to spread down the length of Worth and Smith Streets. Those
problems arise from Esparza's not providing for the parking of it's customers and
feeling no responsibility for the results of the customers encroachment upon the
surrounding neighborhood. The following, lists the experiences of the residents in
the 20-25 homes affected:
1. Parking of vehicles on both sides of Worth, Smith and Franklin.
This has blocked passage for normal vehicles at times and will not allow for
emergency vehicles on Smith which is a narrower street. There are multiple
occupants who may require emergency assistance at any time. One of those
families is our renters at 408. Their grandson is very ill and has had to have
emergency assistance more than once from his parents home. He is at his
grandparents home on a regular basis. The street is 28 feet wide but it is humped
in the center causing cars to rest at an angle. Since car doors cannot be open the
drivers tend to park away from the curb. The average car is approximately 6 feet
wide. With cars parked 2 to 3 feet from the curb you only have 10-12 feet left for
a finro way road. Emergency vehicles cannot pass through without difficulty. During
City supported activities, those streets allow parking on one side to allow for
emergency vehicles.
Cars parked on those streets are regularly hit by motorists trying to pass through.
This has resulted in Esparza's customers coming up to the residences and either
asking for assistance or making accusations. The assumption being, the residents
are responsible or should have seen the accident.
The residents do not enjoy the privilege of having guests park near their home due
to the lack of parking for those guests. The entire area is completely taken up by
Esparza's customers for blocks in any direction. Even the ordering of a pizza has
necessitated the pizza deliverer parking finro blocks from the residence to deliver the
pizza.
Residents find the driveways to their homes blocked or cars parked in such a way
that access or egress is not possible. On at least one occasion a resident
requested a car blocking the driveway be towed and the police denied the request
stating there was grass in the driveway so the parker didn't know any better.
3
07/01/97
2. Behavior of many customers has been unacceptable for a residential area.
They frequently urinate on the street or on the front yard of the home where they
have parked. Males and females have been seen doing this for the last ten years.
We have had multiple reports from several of our renters of this behavior as well
as from our friends who live in the area.
They occasionally have been seen, by several residents, in a variety of sexual
activities in full view from the homes. They have exhibited surprise and anger when
asked to leave the area. Usually they are intoxicated.
They frequently empty their trash from their cars before leaving the area. Typically
this includes cans and bottles of an alcoholic nature. The theory being, we assume,
that they don't want to get pulled over for DWI with that kind of evidence in the car.
My friend's children collected the cans deposited in their yard for a year. Then they
bought a Sega Genesis. Dirty diapers are also found as well as dumped cigarette
butts.
After having no help from the city in all of these years, it was wonderful to finally
have some dialog with the City Manager's office last year. They have been
reassuring and given us hope that a solution was forthcoming. The parking lot
proposed will help the situation a great deal by encouraging customers to remain
in the commercial part of town. If, however, Esparza's continues to attract more F :
customers because of this new parking, allowing for others to park on the street and
again place the neighborhood in the situation described above, further measures
will have to be taken to encourage Esparza's to take more responsibility for its
impact on its neighbors.
The area of town that has been impacted by this situation is a very popular area
and is attracting very high rent as well as good prices on home sales. The area is
being restored and rejuvenated through the efforts of many of us. Those of us who
have rental or business property in this area look at this situation as a negative
impact on our businesses that we have never been compensated for. As for my
husband and I, we were here first. Our property rights supersede those of
Esparza's. We need to bring this situation to a reasonable end and we look to you
to accomplish this. Our only other avenues of relief would be extremely public and
not positive for the City or Esparza's.
As to the proposal, we hope you will support the parking lot. We hope also that a
privacy fence and landscaping will be provided as well as a stipulation that any
security lighting be set in such a way that it does not shine into the windows of the
surrounding homes. It would not be proper to secure relief for the neighborhood
without trying to minimize the impact to the homes in the immediate vicinity of the
proposed parking lot.
We do not support the expansion of alcoholic beverage sales on the outside
addition of Esparza's. The "porch" was not an approved addition and has only
4
, ��
07/01/97
served to compound the problem. Allowing Esparza's to continue to use this
addition let alone serve alcoholic beverages there will only assure that the parking
will increase and again encroach into the neighborhood. Esparza's cannot continue
to expand its operations with impunity and with no regard for the others in the area.
We thank you for your attention to the situation and we hope this will resolve a
problem that has plagued this area for many years.
Sincerely, Dee and Tony McNosky, 5108 Pleasant Run Road, Colleyville, TX

Re: File #Z97-14 and CU97-31, Esparza's Restaurants
Dear Council, Mayor and Zoning Commission:
My name is Ron Tillery. I currently reside at 221 E. Franklin and own the joining
property at 215 E. Franklin (adjacent on the west) which is adjacent to Esparza's
proposed parking lot. I'm sorry and apologize for being unable to attend the
meeting of July 1, 1997. *I request that this letter be read into the minutes of the
meeting July 1, 1997, at 7:30 p.m.
I have resided at the above address since 1984 and have experienced the
tremendous progression of traffic congestion on Worth St. and Smith St. and
recently on E. Franklin. Because they are so narrow, E. Franklin and Smith, when
parking is on both sides, can barely accommodate a single vehicle. Even with one
side parking, as allowed during city activities, two way traffic must stop to let
another vehicle pass. This is a dangerous situation.
Parking on E. Franklin began in April 1997 because patrons "somehow learned"
they could park in front of our houses and walk across the new proposed parking
lot and enter Esparza's through the rear, since the privacy fence was conveniently
left open at each end. This was corrected by the city but one never knows what
tomorrow may bring.
The quality of life in this area has diminished, and I do know there have been many
problems with residents and patrons on Worth and Smith Streets. No one wants
people walking across the lawns and depositing beer cans and assorted trash. I
don't want this on my street.

As for the proposal, I suggest you support the parking lot. I have seen the blueprint
designs at city hall and approve of its design, fences and landscaping. It should be r
attractive and somewhat help traffic. I never had any intention of rejecting it.
However. it has come to my attention as of today, June 25, that this will include the
expansion of alcoholic beverage sales on the una�proved exterior addition of
Esparza's porch or deck. Serving of alcoholic beverages on this addition will
rp omote and increase more parking and further neighborhood encroachment. I do
not support this.
Expansions of this nature must cease. This exhibits no regard for area residents,
but not much has really been shown by Esparza's and its patrons.
Again, I will support the proposed parking lot, if and only if, the expansion for
alcoholic beverages be denied. Otherwise, neither should be approved. The area
residents should have the predominant right to choose the quality of life for their
neighborhood. Thank you.
Sincerely, Ron Tillery, 221 E. Franklin St., Grapevine, Texas
Request reading at July 1, 1997 meeting.
To: The City Council and Planning & Zoning Commission
Re: File #Z97-14 and CU97-31 Esparza's Restaurant
Dear Council, Mayor and Zoning Commission
My name is Neal Patterson. I reside at 215 E. Franklin St which is immediately
adjacent to Esparza's proposed parking lot and have had a business, The
Beautique, for 20 years at 205 E. Worth Street diagonally across the street from this
restaurant. I'm sorry I am unable to attend this meeting.
*I, however, request that this letter be read into the minutes of the 7:30 p.m.
meeting July 1, 1997.
I have lost a volume of business since the advent of Esparza's Restaurant. My
customers have no place to park due to E�s arza's domination of street parking.
Many of my customers are elderly and have to park a long distance, which creates
a definite hardship on them. I have asked (in the past) the City to reserve the 2
spaces in front of my business for my customers, but nothing has ever been done.
It is not fair to those of us with businesses along E. Worth to suffer from the
dictatorial practices of one establishment, that being Esparza's.
As for the parking lot proposal as presently blueprinted, I urge you to support it if
and only if the expansion of alcoholic beverage sales on the exterior addition of
6
07/01/97
Esparza's porch be denied. I understand this construction was not approved. This
will further add to parking congestion and further neighborhood problems if both it
and the proposed parking lot are approved.
Therefore, again I approve of the parking lot but only if the expansion is denied.
Otherwise, both should not be approved at any cost.
Sincerely, Neal Patterson
Please read this letter into the records:
I approve the rezoning of the 0.438 acres at the rear of the existing restaurant for
a parking lot only, provided there is no vehicular or pedestrian access from Franklin
St. I object to any expansion of the existing restaurant. The information given me
by a city employee show Esparza's now have a seating capacity of 303 and 16
parking spaces. If the parking lot is approved, it will add 35 parking spaces making
a total of 51.
I understand the requirements for a new business with this seating capacity is 104
spaces, so even if the new lot is approved, they will not even have half the required
spaces for a new business.
I attended a meeting in 1990 and at that meeting, there was an application to
expand Esparza's. The application was denied, yet the seating capacity has
increased from about 200 to over 300, and the parking spaces have decreased from
25 to 16. I was not notified of this change, so please explain in this meeting how
this happened.
The parking lot will help, but it will not solve the parking problem that exists in this
neighborhood.
In my opinion, the parking problem in this neighborhood creates a danger to our
homes and our lives, because it will delay emergency vehicles reaching us.
The other reason I do not want Esparza's to expand is because we have old, bad
city sewer lines in this neighborhood.
I request the City of Grapevine to consider the welfare of the residents and other
business owners of this neighborhood more important than the sale tax they receive
from sales from Esparza's and to approve the parking lot, deny any other expansion
of Esparza's and then solve the parking problem that will still exist in this
neighborhood.
7
07/01/97
It is my opinion if Esparza's need to expand, they need to MOVE to another
location, furnish off street parking for their customers instead of depending on the
: streets of a residential neighborhood for parking.
