Project Narrative
This request is for a conditional use permit ("CUP") to allow for a plumbing supply
company in an existing, completely enclosed building along with outdoor storage of service
vehicles and any other necessary outdoor storage for equipment or materials. The property is
located at 340 W Northwest Highway Grapevine,Texas 76051 (the"Property")and was previously
used as a tile and plaster supply store with outdoor storage of construction materials.
The proposed tenant is Elmer's Home Services. Cascade Services is the parent company of
the proposed tenant. Cascade operates a family of independent residential HVAC, plumbing, and
electrical contractors across the Southeast. The proposed tenant will provide high-quality and
responsive air conditioning and plumbing services to residences in the surrounding area. While the
business will receive service calls 24-hours a day, the on-site operating hours of the business will
be seven days a week from 9am to 5pm. Staff will be reduced on the weekends, but the use will
still operate from 9am to 5pm. Most service vehicles are driven home by staff each night and the
ongoing need for service vehicle outdoor storage on-site will be minimal after-hours.
The prior use on the Property stored various tile and plaster related materials outside in the
rear portion of the Property. There was also extensive outdoor vehicle and equipment storage
outside. The proposed tenant's use requiring the CUP will be less intense than the current use,
which is beneficial for the use and enjoyment of the adjacent single-family residential properties.
