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 #BZA26-06
900 PORT AMERICA PLACE
MEETING DATE: MONDAY, APRIL 6, 2026
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The subject property is developed with a one one-story, 35,429 square foot
office/warehouse building on a 125,700 square foot (2.89 acre) lot. The zoning district
prior to development was “I-1” Light Industrial District, and was rezoned to “LI”, Light
Industrial District in the 1984 City-wide Rezoning.
On March 17, 2026, City Council approved the first reading of an ordinance, conditional
use permit CU26-03, on the subject site, to allow for an automotive repair garage with
outside storage, in conjunction with a proposed business . Of the 35,429 square foot
warehouse, 25,101 square feet will be utilized for the proposed business, Crash
Champions.
On April 1, 1996, the Board of Zoning Adjustment approved BZA96 -07, granting a
variance to allow the elimination of the required 10 -foot landscape buffer along the
western property line for approximately 255 linear feet.
The application was submitted by Megan Moore - CRESA, on behalf of the property
owner.
REQUEST:
The applicant is requesting a special exception to reduce the minimum depth of perimeter
landscaping of 15 feet when adjacent to right-of-way.
The following special exception is requested:
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.
Specifically, the applicant is requesting a special exception to the allow the subject site to
remain as developed and to allow an exception to Section 53, Landscaping Regulations.
The subject site does not meet the following requirements:
Agenda Item #7
BZA25-06.4 2
• Subsection H.2.a, of Section 53, Landscaping Regulations stipulates
whenever an off-street parking or vehicular use area abuts a public right-of-way,
except a public alley, a perimeter landscape area of at least 15 feet in depth shall
be maintained between the abutting right -of-way and the off-street parking or
vehicular use area. An appropriate landscape screen or barrier shall be installed
in this area and the remaining area shall be landscaped with at least grass or other
ground cover.
CONDITIONS:
A building permit was issued in 1996, allowing the lot to be developed as shown on the
Existing Conditions Plan dated January 23, 2026.
Currently, and as proposed, the site is not compliant with Zoning Ordinance (82 -73)
relative to the required perimeter landscape area. The ordinance requires a minimum 15-
foot-wide landscape buffer, within which a screening device or barrier must be installed,
with the remaining area landscaped with grass or other ground cover.
To address the screening of the vehicular use area from the right -of-way, the applicant
has proposed approximately 365 linear feet of screening shrubs along the eastern
property line.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Board of Zoning Adjustment approve a special exception to the
Grapevine Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance 82-73, Subsection 43.E.3, Nonconforming
Uses and Structures to allow the subject site to remain as developed as shown on the
plot plan.
