right-of-way dedication associated with platting the property. The City of Grapevine’s
Thourgouhfare plan requires a 65-foot minimum of right-of-way on West Wall Street,
between South Main Street and North Dove Road. The site currently operates as a private
school of educational type (Vine Academy) and the proposed fence is to ensure the safety
of their students.
CONDITION:
The subject property is an existing developed property and the structure was built in 1953
prior to the rezoning of the property in the 1984 City-wide Rezoning from “R-2”, Two Family
District to “CN”, Neighborhood Commercial District. Currently and as proposed, the site is
not compliant with Zoning Ordinance (82-73) relative to the front yard requirement found in
Section 24.G.3, Area Regulations, of Section 24, “CN”, Neighborhood Commercial District
regulations of the Zoning Ordinance that states that front yards shall not be used for any
building, structure, fence, wall or storage area, except that signs may be permitted in this
area. Due to the 4,888 square feet of right-of-way being taken due to platting the property,
a portion of the proposed 3-foot-tall fence will be in the front yard setback.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Board of Zoning Adjustment approve a special exception to the
Grapevine Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance 82-73, Subsection 43.E.3, Nonconforming
Uses and Structures to allow a 3-foot-tall fence within the required front yard adjacent to
the north property line as a result of a 4,888 square foot right-of-way dedication associated
with platting the property as shown on the plot plan.
