PUBLIC HEARING
BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT CASE BZA17-01, NEAL COOPER, 221 WEST
COLLEGE STREET
The first item for the Board of Zoning Adjustment to consider was BZA17-01submitted
by Neal Cooper for property located at 221 West College Street platted as Lot N 167.5’,
W81 ½’ Lot 3, Block 14, City of Grapevine.
Section 15.G.4., “R-7.5” Single Family District, Area Regulations requires a
minimum lot width of 95-feet for a reverse frontage lot. The applicant requested a
variance of fifteen (15’) feet, allowing a lot width of eighty (80’) feet for an existing lot.
Section 42.D., Supplementary District, Corner Lots, requires the side yard setback
on a street to be the same as the required minimum front yard setback. The
applicant requested a variance of six (6’) feet allowing a side yard setback of twenty-
four (24’) feet along the west property line for an existing lot.
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. The applicant is requesting a special exception to allow the existing residential
structure to remain as developed along with an expansion as shown on the plot plan.
Mr. Triplett explained that Staff found a special condition existed for the requested
variances and special exception. Specifically, the subject lot was originally platted in
1913 predating the City's first zoning ordinance adopted in 1955. Developed, platted
property and right-of-way existed adjacent to the subject site, on the east and west
property lines respectively, eliminating the possibility to expand the site to meet the
width requirements for an existing reverse frontage lot. The existing dwelling was built
in 1921 prior to the 1984 City Rezoning to "R-7.5" Single Family District.
With no questions for Mr. Triplett, Neal Cooper of 613 East Texas Street, Grapevine,
Texas, took the Oath of Truth; he gave a brief presentation to the Board and requested
favorable consideration of his request and offered to answer any questions of the
Board.
With no questions for Mr. Cooper, and no additional speakers, Ken White made a
motion to close the public hearing. Tracey Dierolf seconded the motion which prevailed
by the following vote:
Ayes: Holt, Morris, Dierolf, White, Dalton
Nays: None
Absent: None
