Number of cases can be limited due to case load on any given public hearing date. Building permit plan set submittal – Can be submitted at the same time as civils or BZA applications but will not be released until approval of BZA and civil construction drawings. Building Services needs three copies of plan set. Department Notes: PLANNING SERVICES Board of Zoning Adjustment (BZA) application will be required for various deviations such as lot size and lot width. This site is currently non-conforming. If any changes are proposed, they would need to be addressed through BZA. Staff would not recommend approval to divide the lot, as it does not meet the requirements of the zoning ordinance. The property is designated IN – Industrial on Map 2: Future Land Use Map of the Comprehensive Master Plan. Follow "LI", Light Industrial District for bulk, dimensional and setback requirements in Section 25 of the Zoning Ordinance. • No principal structure shall be erected or altered to a height exceeding fifty (50) feet, however an increase up to five (5) feet to this requirement may be granted upon approval of a conditional use request by the City Council. • 30’ front yard setback shall be utilized as a landscaped setback area. • 15% of the lot minimum open space. • 80% maximum impervious surface area (building footprint and paving). • 70% masonry requirement for all exterior building finishes. • 15’ side yard setback Additional Performance Standards Mechanical Equipment Needs to be screened from view. Parapet wall should be used atop buildings rather than a device. Needs to be located at least 120 feet away from the adjacent residential. Electric Vehicle Charging Stations Any proposed EV charging stations should be included in a conditional use request. Refer to Section 42 for standards. EV charging stations must be in addition to required parking spaces and must be depicted on the dimensional control site plan and landscape plan. Parking Refer to Sections 56 parking ratios and loading requirements. Outdoor Illumination (photometric) Cannot exceed 3.0 foot-candles at the property lines adjacent to rights-of-way or nonresidential uses. Must be less than 0.2 foot-candles adjacent to residential. Look at Performance Standards in Section 55 of the Zoning Ordinance. Refer to Section 55. Performance Standards Reduce light levels at ground level of all property lines of the subject property to the following levels based on the zoning of the adjacent properties: • Single-family – 0.2 footcandles • Multi-family – 0.5 footcandles • Non-residential districts, streets – 3.0 footcandles • Industrial districts – 5.0 footcandles Tree Preservation Refer to Section 52, Tree Preservation and Section 53, Landscaping Regulations – Minimum size of new tree plantings is 3” caliper trees; list of permissible trees (two lists) found in our Zoning Ordinance. The two tree lists are separated by parking area planter island trees and perimeter tree requirements. Can remove trees in any utility easement, proposed building footprint and parking area. Protected trees, minimum 3” caliper in size. If “trash trees” are over 10” in size, they are considered protected. No tree removal is allowed prior to obtaining a building permit and receiving written approval from a Building Services inspector or a Public Works/Engineering inspector. Clearing the lot of trees prior to receiving written approval will result in a fine of $320/in. Department Notes: BUILDING SERVICES The Building Permit Application can be submitted concurrently with the conditional use application, however, building permit will be on hold pending City Council and Planning and zoning approval. Three sets of construction documents are required for building permit plan submittal. Plans must be a minimum of 11” X 17” and printed to scale. Only final construction documents are accepted for review. 2021 I-codes were adopted in November 2023 and are now in effect as of January 1, 2024. Separate permits are required for shade structures over parking spaces, construction trailer, signage, retaining walls (measured from bottom of the footer to top of wall, 4-foot maximum height), and mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEPs). Trades pay own fees. Department Notes: PUBLIC WORKS ENGINEERING Platting Plat Application Plat would require Council approval at a public hearing. There would be a first reading at City Council, BZA public hearing, and a second reading at Council. Drainage Flows entering the site must be accepted and carried through the site. Consider downstream impacts of development. If there is a downstream restriction, Offsite improvements or detention may be required. Water The city does not accept water lines on developments unless they provide a public good. Fire services more than 50’ from the main will require a backflow preventor in a vault. Sanitary Sewer Commercial connections require a minimum of 6” lateral at a manhole on the public main. Grading Enough grading will be required to show that no site changes will occur. This will include any retaining walls needed, electrical transformer locations, ADA routes, etc. Access Adequate driveway spacing must exist. Solid Waste City encourages recycling. If recycling is going to be done make sure adequate space is allowed for the additional containers. Republic Services is the franchise operator. Dumpster enclosure required. Height of refuse container screening cannot be taller than 8 feet. Must be located at least 50 feet from adjacent residential districts and uses. Turning movements of the waste hauler need to be factored in the container/enclosure placement. Dimension dumpster enclosure on Site Plan. Minimum of 50ft from residential zoning.

TRIPLETT, JR., PLANNER II SUBJECT: BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT CASE #BZA25-14A & BZA25-14B 611 AND 621 INDUSTRIAL BOULEVARD MEETING DATE: MONDAY, JANUARY 5, 2026 BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The subject property is developed with two existing office/warehouse buildings, associated parking and vehicle maneuvering area. The property is approximately 31,851 square foot (0.73 acre) in size, and is a portion of the platted Lot 6, Grapevine Industrial Park. All platted, Lot 6 is 1.45 acres. The two buildings onsite were constructed in or around 1980 while Lot 6 was platted in February 1981. The subject property was zoned “I-2”, Heavy Industrial District prior to the 1984 City-wide rezoning at which time it was rezoned to “LI”, Light Industrial District Regulations. The subject site appears to be the northern half of Lot 6, which was split by deed in a 1988 conveyance between previous property owners. The subject site has approximately 130 feet of frontage on Industrial Boulevard, a 60-foot-wide public right-of-way as depicted on the plot plan. The two existing buildings, 611 and 621, are both approximately 5,046 and 5,053 square feet in size. The application was submitted by Timothy Mankin, the property owner’s surveyor of record. REQUEST: The applicant proposes to further subdivide the northern half of Lot 6 into two 15,795 square foot lots for the purposes of selling each new lot separately, and is requesting the following variance (BZA25-14A) from the Grapevine Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance No. 82-73, for the subject site: Subsection 31.F.1., Minimum lot size of Section 31, “LI”, Light Industrial District, which requires a minimum lot size of 20,000 square feet. The applicant is requesting a variance to allow a minimum lot size of 15,795 square feet; and Subsection 31.G.1., Minimum lot width of Section 31, “LI”, Light Industrial District, which requires a minimum lot width of 100 feet. The applicant is requesting a variance to allow a minimum lot width of 60.75 feet. The following special exceptions (BZA25-14B) are requested: Agenda Item #7 BZA25-14A & B.4 2 · Subsection 31.F.2, Minimum open space, of Section 31, “LI”, Light Industrial District, requires a minimum open space of 15 percent of the total lot area. With the proposed subdivision of the portion of the lot into two separate lots, 611 Industrial is proposed to have 1,505 square feet or 10% of the total lot area as open space and 621 Industrial is proposed to have 1,149 square feet or 7% of the total lot area as open space. · Subsection 31.F.4, Maximum impervious area, of Section 31, “LI”, Light Industrial District to exceed maximum impervious surface area for each lot. The maximum impervious surface area permitted is 85% of the total lot area. 611 Industrial is proposed to have 14,290 square feet or 90% of the total lot area as impervious surface area and 621 Industrial is proposed to have 14,646 square feet or 93% of the total lot area as impervious surface area. · Subsection 31.G.3, Minimum front yard, of Section 31, “LI”, Light Industrial District to reduce minimum landscaping in the 30-foot front yard should be utilized as a landscaped setback area. Front yards shall not be used for any building, structure, fence, wall, parking or storage area, except that signs shall be permitted in this area. Front yards shall be landscaped with grass, shrubbery and trees; and no part shall be paved or surfaced except for minimum access, driveways and sidewalks in accordance with Section 53 of this ordinance. The entire front yard of both 611 and 621 are completely paved, with no landscaping. · Subsection 31.G.4, Depth of side yard, of Section 31, “LI”, Light Industrial District to reduce the minimum depth of a side yard from 15 feet to 3.9 feet for 611 Industrial Boulevard to the northern property line and 4.4 feet for 621 Industrial Boulevard from the southern property line. · Subsection 31.G.6, Minimum distance between buildings, of Section 31, “LI”, Light Industrial District to reduce the minimum distance of 30 feet between buildings on adjacent lots adjacent to the north property line for 611 Industrial Boulevard and south property line for 621 Industrial Boulevard; · Subsections 53.H, Minimum requirements for off-street parking and vehicular use areas, and 53.I, Landscaping for nonvehicular open space, of Section 53, Landscaping Regulations, to reduce minimum interior landscaping, reduce minimum perimeter landscaping, and reduce landscaping requirements for nonvehicular open spaces. As proposed, total landscaped area for 611 Industrial Boulevard is approximately 10% and 7% for 621 Industrial Boulevard. There are no proposed 10-foot landscape strip provided between lot lines and vehicle use areas. · Section 54, Masonry requirements, to reduce the use of exterior wall materials to less than 70% masonry products. The front facade of each building, which faces Industrial Boulevard, features 30% brick cladding around the primary entrances and the remainder is 70% metal. All other elevations of the buildings are entirely 100% metal.; and · Subsection 31.K, Off-street parking requirements, of Section 31, “LI”, Light Industrial District and Subsection 56.C, Number of parking spaces required, of Section 56, Off-Street Parking Requirements to reduce required parking from ten (10) spaces to five (5) for each of the proposed lots. Agenda Item #7 BZA25-14A & B.4 3 ATYPICAL CONDITIONS FOR VARIANCE: Staff has determined that there are no atypical conditions that warrant the requested variance (BZA25-14A) for this property. The subject property was replatted in 1980, prior to the city-wide rezoning that occurred in 1984, at which time it was designated as “LI,” Light Industrial District. The property, which is part of Lot 6 in the Grapevine Industrial Park, was split by deed (rather than through a legal replat), resulting in the existing non- conformities. As a result, the property does not meet several requirements outlined in Section 31 of the “LI, Light Industrial District regulations. Currently, the site is non- compliant with the Zoning Ordinance (82-73) concerning the following areas: Subsection 31.F.1., Minimum lot size of Section 31, “LI”, Light Industrial District, which requires a minimum lot size of 20,000 square feet. The lot exists today with the lot size of 31,851 square foot (0.73 acre); and Subsection 31.G.1., Minimum lot width of Section 31, “LI”, Light Industrial District, which requires a minimum lot width of 100 feet. The applicant is requesting a variance to allow a minimum lot width of 60.75 feet for both proposed lots. CONDITIONS FOR SPECIAL EXCEPTION: The current standards for the "LI", Light Industrial District, landscaping regulations and building material standards do not meet the minimum requirements or exceed the maximum limits for several criteria, including minimum open space, maximum impervious area, minimum front yard, depth of side yard, minimum distance between buildings, minimum requirements for off-street parking, and vehicular use areas, as well as landscaping for non-vehicular open spaces. Continuing to subdivide the property will lead to further non-compliance with these existing standards. Staff recommends denial of the requested special exceptions, as approving them would undermine zoning standards and perpetuate similar noncompliant properties. The exceptions for minimum landscape requirements, open space, maximum impervious surface area, minimum front yard landscaping depth, reduced side yard setbacks, distance between buildings on adjacent lots, and reducing off-street parking are not supported for these reasons. Agenda Item #7 BZA25-14A & B.4 4 RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the Board of Zoning Adjustment: Deny (BZA25-14A) variance to the Grapevine Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance 82-73, Subsection 31.F.1., Minimum lot size, which requires a minimum lot size of 20,000 square feet. The applicant is requesting to reduce the minimum lot size to 15,795 square feet for two proposed lots; and Subsection 31.G.1., Minimum lot width, which requires a minimum lot width of 100 feet. The applicant is requesting reduce the minimum lot width to 60.75 feet for two proposed lots. Deny (BZA25-14B) special exceptions to the Grapevine Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance 82-73, to reduce the minimum open space from 15% to 10% for 611 Industrial and 7% for 621 Industrial; increasing the maximum impervious surface area from 85% to 90% for 621 Industrial and 93% for 611 Industrial; reduce the required front yard landscaping to 0%, allowing for complete pavement; reducing the minimum side yard depth to 3.9 feet for 611 Industrial and 4.4 feet for 621 Industrial; reducing the distance between buildings from 30 feet to those side yard setbacks shown on the plot plan for each proposed lot; reduce minimum landscaping requirements resulting in approximately 10% landscaping for 611 Industrial and 7% for 621 Industrial without any 10-foot landscape buffers adjacent to property lines; reducing the masonry requirements of exterior wall materials, and reducing the parking requirement from ten spaces to five for each lot. /em
