MEMORANDUM PLANNING SERVICES
MEMO TO: BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT
FROM: ERICA MAROHNIC, PLANNING SERVICES DIRECTOR
ALBERT L. TRIPLETT, JR, PLANNER II
SUBJECT: BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT CASE #BZA25-11
508 EAST WORTH STREET
MEETING DATE: MONDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 2025
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The subject property is developed with a single-story, 1,317 square foot single-family
detached residence and a 610 square foot secondary structure (detached garage) on a
9,520 square foot (0.22 acre) lot. The lot was developed in 1917 and is platted as E37
1/2’LT 2 & W32 ½’3, College Heights Addition (a portion of two original lots). The subject
property was zoned “R-3”, Multiple-Family Dwelling District prior to the 1984 City-wide
Rezoning at which time it was rezoned “R-7.5”, Single-Family District. The subject property
is located within the historic landmark sub-district HL10-11, which features the historic 1917
Farrington House. Both the house and the detached garage are considered contributing
structures of the Historic Township. The Farrington House was once the home of E.S.
Farrington, a former superintendent of Grapevine’s schools.
On August 19, 2025, City Council approved AM25-04 (Ord. 2025-054) amending various
sections of the Zoning Ordinance relative to secondary structures.
On October 22, 2025, the Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) approved CA24-57 to
allow for the following:
· Renovate the existing 1,317 square foot house and construct a new 1,683 square
foot two-story addition to the rear of the house resulting in 3,000 square feet of living
area;
· Renovate the original two-car garage, lifting and placing it on a new concrete
foundation in the same location; and
· Construct a new connecting covered walkway from the house to the garage.
REQUEST:
The applicant intends to renovate both the existing residential dwelling and the existing
detached garage and is requesting the following special exceptions (BZA25-11) from the
Grapevine Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance No. 82-73, Section 43.E.3, Nonconforming
Uses and Structures allows the Board of Zoning Adjustment to approve the remodeling
and/or enlargement of a nonconforming use for the subject site:
Subsection 15.G.1., Depth of Front yard of Section 15 “R-7.5”, Single Family District,
which requires a front yard depth of 30 feet. The existing residential structure is
Agenda Item # 8
BZA25-11.4 2
approximately 27 feet from the north property line and encroaches approximately 3-feet into
the required front yard setback.
Subsection 15.B., Secondary uses of Section 15 “R-7.5”, Single Family District, requires
all secondary structures to be set back a minimum of six feet from side and rear property
lines. For each foot in structure height above ten feet, the structure must be setback an
additional foot.
Per a recent amendment to the Zoning Ordinance with case AM25-04 (Ord. 2025-054),
secondary structures exceeding ten 10-feet in height must maintain side and rear yard
setbacks of 6-feet, plus one (1) additional foot for each foot of height over 10-feet. The
existing detached garage is approximately 14-feet in height, and therefore requires 10-foot
setbacks from both the rear and side property lines.
The detached garage is located approximately 1-foot from the east property line and 0-feet
from the south property line in the rear yard, resulting in encroachments of approximately 9-
feet into the required 10-foot east side yard setback and 10-feet into the required 10-foot
rear yard setback.
CONDITIONS:
Staff finds that conditions exist for the requested special exceptions (BZA25-11) on this
property. Specifically, the subject property was developed in 1917 and is portions of two
lots platted in 1915 prior to the City’s first Zoning Ordinance in 1955 and prior to the
rezoning of the property in the 1984 City-wide Rezoning to “R-7.5”, Single-Family District.
This property is historically designated, HL10-11. The goal in preserving historic structures
is to keep them in their original locations as much as possible to maintain their historical
significance.
Currently and as proposed, the site is not compliant with Zoning Ordinance (82-73) relative
to the following areas:
Subsection 15.G.1., Depth of Front yard of Section 15 “R-7.5”, Single Family District, which
requires a front yard depth of 30 feet.
Subsection 15.B., Secondary uses of Section 15 “R-7.5”, Single Family District, which
requires all secondary structures shall be setback from side and rear property lines a
minimum of six feet plus one (1) additional foot for each foot of height over 10-feet.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Board of Zoning Adjustment:
1. Approve (BZA25-11) for the special exception requests on the subject site, subject
to the following condition:
An amended plat is filed with Tarrant County
/at
