END OF JOINT PUBLIC HEARINGS
AMENDMENTS OF GRAPEVINE CODE OF ORDINANCES, APPENDIX D,
COMPREHENSIVE ZONING ORDINANCE NO. 82-73, AS AMENDED, SECTION 60 SIGN
STANDARDS
091702 5
P & Z JOINT PUBLIC HEARING
SEPTEMBER 17, 2002
Next for the Planning and Zoning Commission to consider were amendments to Section 60,
Sign Regulations, relative to signage in the "GU", Governmental Use District.
Prior to the 1984 citywide rezoning, the sign regulations did not apply to uses located within
the "GU" Governmental Use District. In 1984, the sign ordinance was amended to require
that uses located within this district adhere to the sign regulations for the most restrictive
abutting district, thus making the sign regulations for the "GU", Governmental Use District
the most restrictive of any other district within the city.
This case was tabled from the August 20, 2002 meeting to give staff the opportunity to
amend the proposed revisions to Section 601 of the zoning ordinance per Council direction.
The revised amendments provide a mechanism for signs that do not comply with the sign
regulations of the "GU" district to be approved by the City Council with a conditional use
permit.
The proposed additions to Section 60 are as follow:
L. GU GOVERNMENTAL USE DISTRICT
Signs in a Governmental District shall meet the sign requirements of the most
restrictive adjacent or contiguous district, except wall, ground, or monument signs are
permitted for public schools adjacent to any district.
The City Council may authorize and approve a sign that does not comply with
the most restrictive adjacent or contiguous district where it is determined by
the City Council, after receipt of a recommendation from the Planning and
Zoning Commission, that a need exists for such a sign in order to properly and
adequately apprise the public relative to the activities being conducted on the
site by issuance of a Conditional Use Permit.
Herb Fry moved, with a second by Rob Undersander to approve the Amendments of
Grapevine Code of Ordinances, Appendix D, Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance No. 82-73,
as amended, Section 60 Sign Standards. The motion prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Oliver, Fry, Busbee, Murray, Nicholson, and Undersander
Nays: St. John
