ITEM 8. PUBLIC HEARING, APPEAL TO CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS
#CA09-57, 405 EAST TEXAS STREET
City Manager Bruno Rumbelow stated the City Council would conduct a public hearing
relative to an appeal to Certificate of Appropriateness#CA09-57 relative to 405 East Texas
Street as governed by the Grapevine Code of Ordinances, Appendix"G", Section 13. He
noted that on November 18, 2009 the Historic Preservation Commission approved a
Certificate of Appropriateness for a request for Mary Fuller by her niece Vincent Bradford to
replat the 0.94 acre Millican property located at 405 E. Texas Street into three single-family
lots. At that meeting, the HPC approved the request as follows:
1. Replat the existing 0.94 acre property into three separate single-family lots with R-
7.5 zoning.
2. Move or remove the existing outbuilding so that two new single-family dwellings
can be constructed. (This request was modified by the HPC to require that the
materials from the barn be used to build an accessory structure on the existing
property with the original house.)
3. Remodel existing main residence at a future date under a separate Certificate of
Appropriateness application.
After that meeting, Mr. Vick Cox, 418 E. Texas Street filed an appeal to the decision of the
Commission as allowed by Section 13 of Appendix G of the Grapevine Code of
Ordinances.
Mayor Tate declared the public hearing open.
Historic Preservation Officer/Township Coordinator David Klempin presented Certificate of
Appropriateness#CA09-57 application that was submitted on behalf of the property owner,
Ms. Mary Fuller, by her niece Ms.Vincent Bradford (10001 Big Geronimo Street, San
Antonio, Texas)to replat the historic 0.94 acre Millican property, located at 405 East Texas
Street into three single-family lots. In order to create three lots,three outbuildings would be
removed including: a wooden shed; a finro-room cottage; and, most importantly,the historic
Millican barn that was enlarged in 1959 with building materials from the original Millican
Blacksmith Shop c. 1909. The historic Millican home, built in 1935 by the owner's parents,
William and Helen Millican, as their family home, would remain standing on one of the
three lots. Presently all of the structures are protected from demolition by Historic
Landmark Overlay HL01-04 of Grapevine's Preservation Ordinance.

01/19/10
Mr. Klempin reported a that a letter of hardship, dated October 21, 2009, was received
from Ms. Bradford indicating that her aunt, Ms. Fuller, needed to sell the property to pay
the back taxes on the property and to the IRS. The property had been offered for sale for
850 days at an original listing price of$999,999.99 and received only one offer.The offer to
purchase the property is contingent on being able to divide the property into three lots. The
potential buyer indicated that the placement of a new home on the property would be
hindered, if not impossible, due to the locations of the outbuildings. The owner is
requesting, on a hardship basis, that the Historic Preservation Commission waive the
landmark designation on the outbuildings and allow fortheir removal, and forthe division of
the property into three separate lots.
Mr. Klempin stated that Staff had recommended denial of Certificate of Appropriateness
#CA09-57 for the removal of the historic Millican barn and outbuildings and the subdivision
of the property into three lots. He reported the first to approve the application as requested
was denied by a vote of 3-4; the second motion to deny the application as recommended
did not receive a second; and then the Historic Preservation Commission voted 4-1-2 to
approve the application as written with the condition that the materials from the barn be
used to build an accessory structure on the existing property with the original house.
Ms. Vincent Bradford representing Ms. Mary Fuller reviewed the Certificate of
Appropriateness application that was submitted to the Historic Preservation Commission.
She reviewed the financial hardship appeal and noted the barriers to selling the property:
cost, historic preservation barrier and financing for potential buyers. It was Ms. Bradford's
opinion that only the residence was historically landmarked, not the entire property. She
asked that Mr. Jeff Avery, the potential buyer, be permitted to complete her presentation
for approval of the Certificate of Appropriateness.
Mr. Jeff Avery began his comments reiterating the previous comments by Ms. Bradford.
Mayor Tate questioned whether he had elevations for the proposed single family
residences and Mr. Avery responded that he did not.
Mayor Tate questioned the City Attorney as to whether the landmark overlay was
applicable to the entire parcel. Assistant City Attorney Matthew Boyle responded that the
landmark designation was applicable to the entirety of the addressed parcel and that any
new construction would be subject to receipt of a Certificate of Appropriateness prior to
issuance of a building permit.
Mayor Tate then asked that the following materials be accepted into evidence at this public
hearing: Historic Preservation Commission November 18, 2009 agenda packet; the letter
from the appellant; revised Historic Preservation Commission draft minutes from November
18, 2009; and the support materials presented by applicant.
Historic Preservation Commission Chairman Burl Giltiam reviewed the Historic Preservation
Commission's discussion and voting process during the November 18, 2009 meeting. He
noted this was the first time an appeal had been filed as a result of the Commission's
actions.

01/19/10
Mr. Vick Cox, 418 East Texas Street, presented his appeal to the approval of the
Certificate of Appropriateness regarding 405 East Texas Street. He filed the appeal due to
the complexity of the issues and his belief that the City Council should review the decision
and make a final ruling. It was his opinion that the asking price for the property
($999,999.00)was too high for too long and that the property was being overlooked due to
the high price. He stated that the subject property is the most unique piece remaining in
the Township due to its size, as well as its tie to the past and the open farm-like setting
provides a sense of history unlike any other east side property.
Mayor Tate invited those present to speak for or against the Certificate of Appropriateness
Application. The following expressed their support for the decision made by the Historic
Preservation Commission relative to 405 East Texas Street:
Mr. Mike Buick, 320 East Texas Street
Mr. Mark Miller 3212 Rolling Hills
Council Member Freed, seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Wilbanks offered a motion to close
the public hearing. The motion prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Tate, Wilbanks, Spencer, Stewart, Freed, Lease & Coy
Nays: None
Council Member Spencer questioned Director of Heritage Programs and Preservation Ross
Bannister regarding the information provided on the Historic Landmark Designation Form
for the property. Mr. Bannister reported that Ms. Susan Kline, a property research
consultant for Heritage Programs and Preservation,who reviews historical records filed at
the County Courthouse, provided the information from her research. There was also a
written document by an aunt of Mary Fuller that provided information noting that the
property had been used for in-town farming activities.
Council Member Freed expressed her support of the Historic Preservation Commission
("Commission")during the meeting and that the process was handled properly. She stated
the charge is given to the Commission to make decisions and she supports their decision.
Council Member Freed offered a motion to accept the decision made by the Historic
Preservation Commission.
Mayor Pro Tem Wilbanks stated he was at the Commission's meeting as the Council
liaison. He noted the motions were trying to develop a compromise as noted by the
various motions. He stated that Chairman Gilliam did an outstanding job during the
meeting and that everyone had an opportunity to speak. He stated the decision rendered
was a valid one and the majority ruled.
Council Member Lease stated the process was a good one and he complimented everyone
for presenting the case in a professional manner. He commended Mr. Cox for his
8
01/19/10
commitment to historical preservation.
Council Member Lease offered a second to Council Member Freed's motion.
Mayor Tate stated that the Commission performed a good and thorough job. The Council
charged the Commission members with making preservation decisions and it would be
unfair to pass the authority back to the Council. Their decision should stand unless there is
something grievously wrong, so that others will have confidence in the Commission's
decisions in the future. Regarding 405 East Texas Street, if the Historic District rules and
regulations were not in place, the property would be worth very little.
Mayor Tate stated that the changes in the property should add to the Historic District and
that it has to be a part of the Certificate of Appropriateness to know what is to be built on
the property. He stated the elevations of the properties contribute to the Historic District
and he hopes that the Commission holds the line to make sure those proposed residences
meet the criteria.
Assistant City Attorney Boyle requested clarification of the motion.
Council Member Freed amended her motion, seconded by Council Member Lease, to
accept the decision made by the Historic Preservation Commission and include the
conditions and approvals that were made by the Historic Preservation Commission.
Council Member Coy expressed his appreciation for the Commission's diligence in making
a good decision. He thanked those making their presentations.
Council Member Stewart noted his support for all of the statements made by Council and
expressed his appreciation for everyone's presentations.
Council Member Spencer thanked the Staff for their completeness in preparing the
information. She noted the Commission has a difficult job and has to vote sometimes
when they don't want to. The Commission's job is to always advocate first for Historic
Preservation and that is it commendable this is the first appeal in 19 years.
Mayor Tate called for a vote on the motion that was on the table.
The motion prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Tate, Wilbanks, Spencer, Stewart, Freed, Lease & Coy
Nays: None

building at the City Service Center. Diesel exhaust accumulation in the living quarters of
fire stations has proven to cause many associated health problems for firefighters.
