The property contains approximately 18.095 acres and has multiple street frontages along East Worth Street, Austin Street, and Ruth Street. REQUESTED CONDITIONAL USE, PLANNED DEVELOPMENT OVERLAY, AND COMMENTS: The applicant is requesting a conditional use permit to amend the previously approved site plan of CU19-25 (Ord. 2013-33) for a non-profit educational institution, specifically to construct football field seating and a multi-purpose facility. The applicant is also requesting a planned development overlay to deviate from, but not be limited to the height regulations from Section 15 of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, No. 82-73. With this request the applicant proposes a multi-purpose facility and seating on the subject site. Visitor bleachers will be built on the west side of the existing football field. The home side bleachers will be rebuilt on the east side of the football field and connected to the multi-purpose facility. The multi-purpose facility will contain an approximate 64,157 square feet indoor practice field and practice gyms (Phase 3), and a two-story structure, approximately 26,000 square feet, that will include locker rooms, concession stand, CU24-37.4-PD24-05.4 2 restrooms, a weight room, training rooms, staff offices, meeting rooms, and a press box (Phase 1 & 2). An existing fieldhouse will be demolished to make room for the multi- purpose facility. The applicant has requested a planned development overlay to deviate from Section 15 of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, No. 82-73. The maximum permitted height for a secondary structure in the “R-7.5”, Single-Family District is one story not to exceed 16 feet. The fieldhouse/press box is proposed to be two stories and the maximum height proposed for the indoor practice field is 56-feet. At a July 2006 meeting, the City Council approved a zoning change and conditional use request transitioning the former Grapevine Middle School to a non-profit, faith-based educational institution for Faith Christian School. Subsequent amendments to the site plan for the school were made in 2014 to allow for a gymnasium expansion and a re- development of the athletic facilities to include a new football field and running track, concessions, stadium seating, restrooms and parking along with the abandonment of a portion of Cannon Street. A March 2015 meeting focused primarily on stadium lighting, outdoor speakers and an increase in height to accommodate four, 63-foot LED light standards. Also, at that meeting a stadium use agreement was presented detailing the hours of operation, lighting for non-athletic events and special exception provisions. The most recent approval on the subject site was on October 4, 2023, the Site Plan Review Committee, approved CU23-29 for 688 linear feet of security fencing along East Worth Street (north) campus. PRESENT ZONING AND USE: The property is zoned “R-7.5” Single Family District and is currently home to Grapevine Faith Christian School. HISTORY OF TRACT AND SURROUNDING AREA: The subject property was zoned “R-1” Single Family District prior to the 1984 City Rezoning at which time it was rezoned to “GU” Governmental Use District. • On July 18, 2006, City Council approved Z06-07 (Ord. 2006-49) to rezone 16.75 acres from “GU”, Governmental Use District to “R-7.5”, Single Family District and CU06-27 (Ord. 2006-50) to allow for a non-profit educational institution in the “R- 7.5”, Single Family District for the Faith Christian School. • On July 15, 2014, City Council approved CU14-29 (Ord. 2014-42) to allow for the field house to remain and to allow an expansion of the existing gymnasium. • On August 19, 2014, City Council approved CU14-34 (Ord. 2014-52) to allow for the re-development of athletic facilities to include a new football field and running track, concessions, stadium seating, restroom and parking. CU24-37.4-PD24-05.4 3 • On March 17, 2015, City Council approved CU15-04 (Ord. 2015-12) to allow for the field house to remain and to allow for sports field light standards and outdoor speakers and PD15-01 (Ord. 2015-12) to allow for deviation from the height requirement for sports field light standards. • On July 8, 2015, the Site Plan Review Committee, approved CU15-26 for a six-foot perimeter security fencing. • On December 17, 2019, City Council approved CU19-25 (Ord. 2019-83) to allow for a softball field and an outdoor educational (STEAM) classroom area. • On March 3, 2021, SPRC approved CU21-02 to allow for modifications to the (STEAM) classroom area including: an expanded canopy, new sidewalks, ramps, railings, improved vehicular circulation and adding a new seven-foot refuse container enclosure. • On October 4, 2023, the Site Plan Review Committee, approved CU23-29 for 688 linear feet of fencing along East Worth Street (north) campus, and to add 1,171 linear feet of fencing along East Dallas Road (south) campus. SURROUNDING ZONING AND EXISTING LAND USE: NORTH: “R-7.5” Single Family District, “R-MF-2” Multifamily District and “R- 12.5” Single Family District - single family residential development SOUTH: DART right-of-way EAST: “R-12.5” Single Family District and “R-MF-2” Multifamily District - single family development, apartment complex WEST: “R-7.5” Single Family District - single family development AIRPORT IMPACT: The subject tract is located within "Zone A" zone of minimal effect as defined on the "Aircraft Sound Exposure: Dallas/Fort Worth Regional Airport Environs" map. Few activities will be affected by aircraft sounds in Zone A, except for sound sensitive activities such as auditoriums, churches, schools, hospitals, and theaters. The applicant’s proposal is an appropriate use in this noise zone only if appropriate noise attenuation measures are considered and applied during any new construction process. CU24-37.4-PD24-05.4 4 MASTER PLAN APPLICATION: Map 2: Land Use Plan of the Comprehensive Master Plan designates the subject property as a Governmental Use (GU) land use. The applicant’s proposal is not in compliant with the Master Plan; however, the Planning and Zoning Commission has undertaken an exercise to correct inconsistencies between the existing zoning and property’s underlying future land use designation throughout the city. This property has been identified for potential change to its future land use designation. /at ALISE BROWN ADDN 3957 WEAVE R ADDN 45481 RENTS C H ADDN 33955A C H JONES 21940 12.447 @ 12 107107106 6 109 109108 110 112 A79114 118 1 119 E TEXAS ST DOOLEY CT 13 TR 2N TR 2Q1 TR 2 Q 2 1 854 2 3 543 A 4 543 654 8 4 6 7 13 76 761R543 5 763142876 6 7 12 13 R 11109 8 1 101112 9 8 2 3 1 2 7A5A436A2 1 5 1 2 1 2 3 8 COLLEGE HEIGHT S 7670 FAITH CHRIST I A N SCHOO L 13568F 4321 WALNUT ST E 2.250 @ 1A 1 4321 E WORTH ST RU T H S T 13R 1.05 ACTR 2Q1A 13141516 FAITH CHRIST I A N SCHOO L ADDN 13568F 1A 2A 18.095 @ 2A 3A 3B G & L ADDN 14974H 1A 18.095 @ FAITH CHRIST I A N SCHOO L ADDN 13568F 2.78 AC TOTAL (5.561 AC) CLIFTO N JONES ADDN 21940 117 4 2 3 1 1 5R 3 1 DOOLE Y ESTS 10057G TR 3 AU S T I N S T 1 107 109 R-MF-2 R-12.5R-7.5 R-MF-2 LI RU T H S T WO O D S T AU S T I N S T E WALNUT ST E WORTH ST E FRANKLIN ST CU24-37/ PD24-05; Grapevine Faith Multipurpose Facility 730 East Worth Street 0 90 180 270 360 Feet ² Date Prepared: 9/3/2024 This data has been compiled by the City of Grapevine IT/GIS department.
