PUBLIC HEARING
BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT CASE BZA18-08, JOSH ARCHER 314 EAST
FRANKLIN STREET
The first item for the Board of Zoning Adjustment to consider was BZA18-08 submitted
by Josh Archer for property located at 314 East Franklin Street, platted as the east
70.16 feet of Lot 2, plus 12 feet of an abandoned alley, Block 30, City of Grapevine
Addition.
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 requested a special exception allowing the replacement of the
existing residential structure with a new structure along with a new detached garage as
shown on the site plan.
Mr. Stombaugh explained that Staff found a special condition existed for the requested
special exception. Specifically, the existing dwelling was built in 1940 predating the
City's first zoning ordinance adopted in 1955. Currently and as proposed the site was
noncompliant with the current zoning ordinance (82-73) relative to the front yard setback
and the rear yard setback for a proposed detached garage.
Mr. Stombaugh stated that the plot plan depicted existing and proposed conditions. The
existing dwelling encroached five-feet (5) into the required thirty-foot (30') front yard
setback and would be demolished. The existing detached accessory structure would be
decreased and would meet the setback requirement of three-feet (3') from the rear
property line.
The new dwelling as proposed encroached four-feet (4) into the required thirty-foot (30)
front yard setback but did not exacerbate the existing condition. The detached garage
proposed, encroached three-feet (3') into the required side and rear yard setback of six-
feet (6) but continued to maintain the rear yard established by the existing accessory
structure immediately to the east.
With no questions for Mr. Stombaugh, Josh Archer of M.J. Wright and Associates, 8223
Mid Cities Blvd #A, North Richland Hills, Texas, representing property owner Allan
Paxton, 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.
Vice-Chairman Dierolf asked Mr. Archer why the structure had not been designed to be
conforming since it was new construction. Mr. Archer stated that the lot had been very
challenging with a long history with HPC regarding an existing historic accessory
structure as well as maintaining a rear yard. Vice-Chairman Dierolf asked why the
driveway was for one car and the detached garage had been designed for two cars. Mr.
Archer stated that a single driveway maintained a larger rear yard.
John Sheppard asked Mr. Archer if a smaller structure had been considered or an
addition of a second story might accomplish the larger rear yard that was wanted. Mr.
Archer stated that a second story was frowned upon by HPC. The couple had retired
and a two-story structure would be more home then needed.
Vice-Chairman Dierolf announced that one (1) letter of opposition had been received.
With no questions for Mr. Archer and no additional speakers, Jerrold Sklar made a
motion to close the public hearing. Tracey Dierolf seconded the motion which prevailed
by the following vote:
Ayes: Dalton, Dierolf, Sheppard, Johnson, Anderson
Nays: None
Absent: None
