properties located along the south corridor of State Highway 121. Having met in a workshop
format with the Planning and Zoning Commission on December 8, 1992, Mr. Boutwell
presented his findings on the present land use and proposed changes to land use designation as
described in the Master Plan. The Planning and Zoning Commission had worked with Mr.
Boutwell to revise the proposed land use designations of undeveloped tracts along the corridor.

Mayor Tate asked for comments from guests present.
Mr. Kelly Pickett, 2754 Mesquite Lane, expressed concerns over the study and asked for
amendments to be tabled until residents could examine the contents and make a recommendation.

the need for such a study. He explained further, that many applications to change zoning had
been brought before the City Council which were not suited for the existing land use. He
explained that no action was anticipated tonight and the Planning and Zoning Commission have
scheduled another workshop January 26, 1993 to refine the revisions requested of Mr. Boutwell.

development would be in the best interest of all Grapevine residents.

of Multifamily being allowed adjacent to their subdivision at State Highway 121 and Hall -
Johnson Road.

gateway to Grapevine through the use of compatible Single Family Residential.

Residential areas.
J. R. Zengler, 914 West Hummingbird, requested to know if any schools had been proposed in
the land use study area.
Bill Crandall, 3302 Sweet Gum Lane, spoke to those present regarding his reasons for moving
from Arlington, Texas to Grapevine, Texas, were because of the major changes and increased
flow of traffic in the I-20 area of Arlington.
Mayor Tate, replied that Grapevine was in a continual process with changing growth patterns
and allowing for thoroughfare plans to handle additional traffic as the city develops.
C.1
Marvin Balvin, Planning and Zoning Commission Member, asked an open question to those
residents from Western Oaks Subdivision whether they would rather have commercial land use
instead of multifamily land use next to their area. He suggested they address this question in
their homeowner's meetings.

the RTC, commented that Single Family would be desirable next to the subdivision and that the
prospective purchaser, Centex Homes, was in opposition to any change to rezone the property
