MEMORANDUM PLANNING SERVICES
MEMO TO: BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT
FROM: ERICA MAROHNIC, DIRECTOR, PLANNING SERVICES
ALBERT L. TRIPLETT, JR, PLANNER II
SUBJECT: BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT CASE #BZA26-03
1109 AIRLINE DRIVE
MEETING DATE: MONDAY, MARCH 2, 2026
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The subject property is the westernmost 118 feet of Lot 2, Block 4, of the J.J. Daniel
Addition, plat filed in 1947 and is located in the center of a residential subdivision,
surrounded by single-family homes to the south and west, and single-family zoning to the
north, south and west. However, the property is presently zoned "PO," Professional Office
District, and is developed as a private parking lot. It is presently fenced, gated and used
for personal storage and parking. The ownership of this lot, by Rebel Properties II, LTD,
is the same as that of the adjacent lot to the east, located at 1100 South Main Street,
which houses a multi-tenant professional office building that utilizes the parking on the
subject site.
The subject property was rezoned from the "R-1," Single-Family Dwelling District, on
March 18, 1980 with zoning case, Z80-12; Ord. No. 80-20 to an "SP," Specific Use Permit
District, for parking purposes only, in accordance with the requirements of the "C -1"
Neighborhood Business District, at the request of property owners Roy Stewart and Mike
Davis for the purpose of developing a parking lot . In the 1984 City-wide Rezoning, the
property was rezoned to “C-W”, Commercial Warehouse District after adoption of the
Zoning Ordinance, No. 82-73. On May 3, 1984, the subject property was rezoned to “PO”,
Professional Office District with Ord. No. 84-22 which is intended for low intensity office
and professional uses.
City Initiated Rezone Request
The City Council initiated a request to rezone the subject site on September 16, 2025,
from “PO”, Professional Office District to “R-7.5”, Single-Family Residential District. At the
October 21, 2025, joint City Council and Planning & Zoning Commission meeting, the
Commission recommended that the request be tabled until December 18, 2025, to allow
time for city staff and the property owners to discuss options to make the subject property
and the adjoining property at 1100 South Main Street compliant with current zoning
ordinances after public testimony. At the December 18 meeting, staff requested and
Council approved a postponement of the zone change as staff engaged in discussions
both internally and externally to identify parking solutions with the property owners. The
property owner’s design professional required additional time to conduct a new survey for
both 1109 Airline Drive and 1100 South Main Street, to include creating a replat for the
Agenda Item # 9
BZA26-03.4 2
two lots with an amended property line between them, as well as seeking special
exceptions from the Board of Zoning Adjustment (Board) for various issues that exist for
1100 South Main Street.
The rezone request was tabled to the March 17, 2026, joint public hearing to allow for
submittal, review, public notifications and consideration by the Board of the property
owner/applicant’s requested special exceptions for both properties.
Plot Plan Notes
The plot plan features three additional notes added at the request of the
applicant/property owners, in addition to the city’s two standard plot plan notes. These
notes speak to the timing of redevelopment at the discretion of the applicant/property
owners.
These statements are not applicable to the special exception requests before the Board
and hold no legal significance regarding the Board’s decision regarding the requests.
REQUEST:
Lot 2 is presently 137 feet deep. With a proposed replat including the property to the east
at 1100 South Main Street, approximately 19 lineal feet or 1,387 sq. ft. of Lot 2 it is
proposed to be transferred from Lot 2 to the proposed lot to the east for the purposes of
constructing additional off-street parking at a later date. The remainder of Lot 2 will be
118 feet deep, 18 feet more than the minimum required in the “R-7.5”, Single-Family
District. The applicant is seeking relief to reduce the required front and rear yard setbacks
of a residential lot to allow a larger buildable area after the property is rezoned and
redevelopment occurs.
The applicant is therefore requesting a special exception from the Grapevine
Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance No. 82 -73, Section 43.E.3, which allows the Board of
Zoning Adjustment to approve the remodeling or enlargement of a nonconforming
structure or use.
Subsections 15.G.1, Depth of front yard of Section 15, “R-7.5”, Single-Family District,
requires all primary structures to be set back a minimum of 30 feet from front property
lines. The applicant/owners are requesting to reduce the front yard setback from 30 feet
to 20 feet. The existing parking lot has no permanent structure(s) and is presently zoned
“PO”, Professional Office District.
Subsection 15.G.2. Depth of rear yard of Section 15, “R-7.5”, Single-Family District,
requires a primary structure to be set back at least 25 feet from the rear property line. The
applicant/owners are requesting to reduce the rear yard setback from 25 feet to 20 feet.
The existing parking lot has no permanent structure(s) and is presently zoned “PO”,
Professional Office District.
Agenda Item # 9
BZA26-03.4 3
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff does not have a recommendation for the Board of Zoning Adjustment regarding the
special exceptions to the Grapevine Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance 82-73 requested
for 1109 Airline Drive.
