PUBLIC HEARING
Chairman Shope opened the Public Hearing for #CA18-50 for the property located at
924 East Worth Street, legally described as Block 9 Lot 3R, D.E. Box Addition,
Grapevine, Texas and take any necessary action.
Chairman Shope called on David Klempin to present the case.
BACKGROUND:
Certificate of Appropriateness application #CA18-50 was submitted on May 4, 2018 by
the applicant, Dat Nguyen, for construction of a new covered play pavilion, a trellis, a
new fence with sliding driveway gate and alterations to the existing driveway pavement
at the historic D.E. Box House. These modifications were requested to adapt the D. E.
Box House for use as primary residence for the Nguyen family of two adults and five
children.
The proposed plans were developed by Architect Scott A. Marek of Marek Architecture
following the Historic Preservation Appendix G Ordinance 2013-23 & the Design
Guidelines of #HL10-09 Ordinance 2011-58, for the D.E. Box Addition Historic District.
The proposed covered play pavilion is 665 square feet in size.
The existing residence and attached garage are 4,273 square feet, exceeding the
maximum 3,400 square feet for the primary structure. No expansion of the existing
residence is proposed or permitted. The Preservation Ordinance permits a detached
garage not to exceed 500 square feet, and a detached storage building not to exceed
200 square feet. The applicant proposes to construct a detached 665 square foot play
pavilion. Staff feels this pavilion is no different than a detached garage/storage building,

and this interpretation is consistent with previous cases. The open trellis has historically
not been interpreted to be a roofed structure, but rather a landscape feature. However,
the applicant must understand that no other structures or expansions shall be permitted
in the future.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Historic Preservation Commission approve with conditions
Certificate of Appropriateness #CA18-50 for the property located at 924 East Worth
Street, legally described as Block 9 Lot 3R, D.E. Box Addition, City of Grapevine, to the
Grapevine Historic Preservation Ordinance 91-73 (Appendix G — Grapevine Code of
Ordinances), as amended for the following items:
1. To construct a 665 square foot covered play pavilion, a 525 square foot trellis, a
new fence with sliding driveway gate and removal of a portion of the existing
driveway paving;
as per the attached plans, with the conditions a variance is granted for an additional
accessory structure; a permit is obtained from the Building Department; and all
exterior materials, finishes, paint colors, doors and door hardware, and exterior light
fixtures are required to be approved on a separate Certificate(s) of Appropriateness.
As the existing area is now all paved, Mr. Nguyen planned to remove areas of the
existing asphalt paving for landscaping and the proposed trellis is to not be covered.
The variance has been approved by the Historic Preservation Officer David Klempin,
Building Director Scott Williams and the Executive Director Paul W. McCallum, as the
lot is over 31,000 square feet and the proposed coverage of the lot would be 15
percent, staff recommends approval with the condition of no future structures to be
approved on this property; and the trellis could not later be modified with a solid roof.
Staff pointed out the beautiful architectural drawings noting the trellis for privacy and the
play pavilion at 10 feet tall appears as a garden structure and not competing with the
house.
Staff recommended approval for all with the conditions the variance be granted with no
future expansions and the trellis not be modified with a solid roof in the future.
Chairman Shope called the architect and owner to speak. Architect Scott Marek stated
the size of the Nguyen family with five children warranted more play space; the trellis
would add some privacy and soften the landscape. It was designed to let the existing
house stand on its own. Commissioner Voelker asked why the 665 square foot area and
not the 500 square feet. The variance again was the 500 square feet plus the 200
square foot outbuilding equaled 700 square feet, thus allowing the 665 square feet.
Mr. Nguyen told the commissioners his children range in age from the oldest at 15 years
old down to his youngest at age two, the children need more outdoor time. He thanked
the Commission.
