P & Z WORKSHOP MINUTES
FEBRUARY 12, 2002
ITEM A. - PRESENTATION REGARDING THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION
PROCESS WITHIN THE CITY
Mayor Tate introduced the topic with Committee members commenting on the
importance of the historic district. He noted that the City would continue to deal with
different issues on a case by case basis and continue to manage and deal with all
aspects of Historic Preservation over the course of time.
Mr. Oliver stated that the Commission agreed and supported the Councils' views
regarding Historical Preservation and the Commission was interested in learning
more about the process of identification of historical value.
Hugo Gardea, the Grapevine Township Revitalization Coordinator, made a
presentation to the Committee outlining the National Historic Preservation as well as
State and Local history. He also explained that a resource survey study categorized
structures over 50 years old and found approximately 300 structures within
Grapevine city limits. About 150 of those categorized have already been established
as Historical Landmarks.
After giving an overview of the Grapevine Historic Preservation Ordinance, including
the purpose, duties, responsibilities, designation and maintenance of structures, Mr.
Gardea answered questions of the Commission.
No action was taken.
ITEM D. - PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION TO DISCUSS AN
AMENDMENT TO SECTION 26, "HC" HIGHWAY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT,
RELATIVE TO ALLOWING FOR AUTOMOTIVE STATE SAFETY INSPECTIONS
FACILITIES WITH A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
Next for the Committee to consider was an amendment to Section 26, "HC" Highway
Commercial District, relative to allowing for automotive state safety inspections
facilities with a conditional use permit. Staff recently visited with the owners of K & M
Inspections, located at 120 East Northwest Highway, about relocating their
automotive state inspections business. Their desired site for relocation is the former
Southwest Marine Boat Sales and Service located at the northwest corner of Dooley
Street and Wall Street. Both sites are zoned "HC" Highway Commercial District;
however, Section 26.D.3 of the zoning ordinance limits the permitted and conditional
uses when a site has access to and frontage on a street other than a State Highway
or Central Avenue. Automotive repair and service uses are not provided for in this
section, and thus are not permitted at the Southwest Marine location.
The zoning ordinance does not currently distinguish between a state inspections
facility and other automotive repair uses. However, an inspections facility could be
considered different and less obtrusive as vehicles are not stored on the premises
Wk021202 2
P & Z WORKSHOP MINUTES
FEBRUARY 12, 2002
for long periods of time and the business does not involve actual repair. Vehicles are
simply tested for safety and environmental compliance, often within a period of 15-
20 minutes each.
Regulations governing state inspections facilities are evolving as new EPA -required
equipment necessitates more space to accommodate the operations, and the
resources needed to run a modern inspections operation will continue to lead to
more comprehensive and diversified automotive uses. However, some businesses
will continue to exclusively offer state inspections services, and it may be sensible to
provide for automotive state inspections facilities specifically on sites within the "HC"
Highway Commercial District, including those with access to and frontage on minor
streets, with a conditional use permit.
After discussion, Kevin Busbee moved, with a second by Danette Murray, to bring
forth to public hearing the Amendment to Section 26, "HC" Highway Commercial
District, relative to allowing for automotive state safety inspections facilities with a
conditional use permit. The motion prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Oliver, Busbee, Murray, Undersander, and Crapp
Nays: None
ITEM E. - PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION TO DISCUSS AN
AMENDMENT TO SECTION 52, TREE PRESERVATION, RELATIVE TO TREE
PRUNING RESTRICTIONS
Next for the Committee to consider were the proposed amendments to Section 52,
Tree Preservation, relative to tree pruning restrictions.
Joe Moore, Assistant Parks and Recreation Director, was present to answer
questions.
The Parks and Recreation Department recommended the proposed amendments
noting that it is standard practice to trim trees in the public right-of-ways at least
fourteen feet off the pavement to allow for school buses, trash trucks, moving vans,
and similar vehicles to travel the streets without causing damage to vehicles or injury
to trees.
Also, the clearance for sidewalks or accessible routes suggested in the amendment
would change to eight feet above any sidewalk or pedestrian access route. It was
noted not only that the City had been constructing its trail system using this standard
guideline for many years, but also these requirements are the minimum height
standards by the State Transportation Standards.
Mr. Oliver questioned if 14 feet was necessary and suggested the school buses
were ten feet and the buses fit within the present regulation of a ten foot clearance.
Wk021202 3
P & Z WORKSHOP MINUTES
FEBRUARY 12,2002
Mr. Oliver noted a 14 foot clearance would be difficult for most homeowners.
Mr. Hardy suggested Mr. Moore revisit the issue and report back to The Commission
at a future workshop.
No action was taken regarding Section 52, Tree Preservation.
ITEM B. - PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION TO REVIEW THE
EFFECTIVENESS OF THE PROVISIONAL LIGHTING STANDARDS OUTLINED IN
SECTION 55.A.5
Next for the Committee to consider was to review the effectiveness of the provisional
lighting standards outlined in Section 55.A.5.
On April 17, 2002, the Planning and Zoning Commission and the City Council
approved provisional lighting standards to be applied to new applications for
conditional use permits received between the dates of 04/17/01 and 04/17/02. Since
that time, all new conditional use permit applications have had to submit a
photometric study of the site illustrating compliance with the new ordinance. Some
of the applications that have had to meet the new lighting standards in the past year
include CU01-22, Kings Smokehouse; CU01-27, Classic Hummer; CU01-46, CVS
Pharmacy; CU01-68, Baylor Professional Office Park and CU01-71, Wal-Mart
Supercenter. Additionally, site plan applications that have been approved
administratively have complied with the new lighting standards.
With the April 17, 2002 deadline approaching, the effectiveness of the provisional
lighting standards in achieving the stated purpose of preventing glare on public
roadways, protecting the privacy of residents and reducing atmospheric light
pollution should be reviewed.
Mr. Hardy stated that over the past year, developers have recognized the need to
address new lighting standards and have been able to comply. Cindy Jackson
confirmed that even small developers were able to comply with the new
requirements.
It was agreed to establish the drafted ordinance as policy and set a public hearing.
Kevin Busbee moved, with a second by Danette Murray, to adopt the drafted
ordinance and set a public hearing regarding the Provisional Lighting Standards in
Section 55.A.5. The motion prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Oliver, Busbee, Murray, Undersander, and Crapp
Nays: None

FAMILY DISTRICT, SECTION 18, "R-3.75" THREE AND FOUR -FAMILY DISTRICT
AND SECTION 20 "R-TH" TOWNHOUSE DISTRICT RELATIVE TO
ESTABLISHING LIMITS ON THE FREQUENCY, TIME AND LOCATION OF
STORAGE CONTAINERS USED IN RELATION TO CURBSIDE STORAGE
SERVICES, MOVING SERVICES AND OTHER SUCH SERVICES
Next for the Committee to consider were the amendments to Section 13, "R-20"
Single Family District, Section 14, "R-12.5" Single Family District, Section 15, "R-7.5"
Single Family District, Section 16, "R-5.0" Zero -Lot -Line District, Section 17, "R-3.5"
Two -Family District, Section 18, "R-3.75" Three and Four -Family District, and
Section 20, "R-TH" Townhouse District, relative to establishing limits on the
frequency, time and location of storage containers used in relation to curbside
storage services, moving services and other such services.
A relatively new trend in self -storage facilities and moving services involves curbside
pickup and/or drop-off of various sized storage boxes and containers at a customer's
residence. While a convenient and useful service, some regulation may be
warranted to prevent interruption of vehicular and pedestrian traffic and a decrease
�in neighborhood aesthetics.
During the month of December, a complaint was received by the City with regard to
the placement of storage containers associated with one of these services. The
items were placed in the street for a period of at least two weeks, creating a potential
traffic hazard as well as an unappealing sight. The goals of the draft amendment are
to prohibit placement of storage containers in public right-of-ways and to establish
limits with regard to the length of time that the containers can be placed outside and
the number of instances such services can be utilized in a specified period of time.
These changes are proposed within the single family, two-family, three and four -
family, and townhouse residential zoning districts.
Mr. Oliver questioned if Multi -family Districts could be included within the Sections to
be amended and Mr. Hampton stated that all residential districts could be amended.
Mr. Oliver felt limiting the number of days these facilities could be used was a
positive change.
Kevin Busbee moved to bring forward to a public hearing the proposed amendment
changes. Mr. Undersander seconded the motion, and the motion prevailed by the
following vote:
Ayes: Oliver, Busbee, Murray, Undersander, and Crapp
Nays: None

requesting to amend the previously approved site plan of CU01-27 (Ord. 2001-49) for a new

and used automotive dealership, specifically to expand the site of the proposed dealership
by 5.9 acres and add a 40 foot pole sign.
Tom Durant and Ronald Hamm, the owner and applicant, were present to answer questions
and request favorable consideration of the request.
On June 19, 2001, City Council approved Conditional Use request CU01-27 on this site
allowing for the Classic Hummer automotive dealership. Three buildings were approved on
a 7.778 acre site with that request, including a 19,952 square foot show room and sales
area for a Hummer franchise, a 15,560 square foot parts distribution facility and a 5,506
square foot fleet sales facility that was to be relocated from the existing Classic Chevrolet
dealership located at William D. Tate Avenue and State Highway 114.
With the acquisition of approximately 5.923 additional acres of land to the north of the
original site, the layout of the Classic Hummer dealership has been expanded and modified.
The Hummer dealership show room has been expanded slightly to a size of 21,721 square
feet and relocated to the northern half of the tract. The parts distribution facility maintains its
15,560 square foot size as well as its location in the rear of the development. The owner is
now proposing to keep the fleet sales at the current Classic Chevrolet location, while
relocating the pre -owned sales offices from that dealership into a 10,718 square foot
building at the Hummer site.
The originally proposed Hummer obstacle course has been removed with this request.
Additionally, a high number of existing trees have been preserved along Arlington -
Grapevine Road and the creek located in the rear of the site. Five existing trees located in
proposed open space areas are proposed to be removed and mitigated. The five trees have
a cumulative size of 93 caliper inches, and are proposed to be replaced with 31 three-inch
caliper trees throughout the site.
The applicant proposes a 40 -foot pole sign located at the southwest corner of the property
for the pre -owned sales. A monument sign for the Hummer Dealership is proposed just
north of the main entrance off of William D. Tate Avenue.
Mr. Durant explained that with the proposed construction along State Highway 114, these
changes were necessary for the continued operation of the Classic Chevrolet Dealership.
With no further guests to speak, no letters, and no petitions, the public hearing was closed.
In the Commission's Deliberation Session, there was discussion regarding the pole sign,
noting a twenty foot pole sign would be consistant with the adjacent Frank Parra site.
Chris Coy moved, with a second by B J Nicholson, to approve Conditional Use Request
CU02-03 with the stipulation that the 40 foot pole sign be replaced with a 20 foot pole sign,
and the motion prevailed by the following vote:

SPECIAL USE REQUEST SU02-01 — ZONE SYSTEMS, INC.
Next for the Commission to consider and make a recommendation to the City Council was
Special Use Request SU02-01 submitted by Zone Systems, Inc. for property located at 525
Industrial Boulevard and platted as Lot 3, Grapevine Industrial Park. The applicant was
requesting a special use permit for the installation of a 75 foot monopole communications
tower with a 11 feet six inches x 20 foot equipment shelter building measuring 10 feet six
inches in height.
In December, 2001, City Council denied without prejudice a proposal for this same 75 -foot
Cingular Wireless monopole, stating that more information and analysis regarding
alternative sites in the proposed service area would be required. The applicant has
provided coverage maps for five alternative sites along with a written statement on why
each of these five sites is considered less desirable than the proposed Industrial Boulevard
site.
Peter Kavanagh, representing Cingular Wireless, was present to answer questions and
request favorable consideration of the request. Mr. Kavanaugh explained the alternate
choices of locations that Cingular Wireless had researched and the results of the various
studies conducted. He explained that representatives from Baylor Hospital had denied
Cingular's request to collocate, and Cingular had no agreement with TXU to utilize their
poles. Chris Coy questioned why two poles could not used in place of one and Bill
Bimmerman asked if the light poles at the Best Buy would equally suffice. Mr. Kavanaugh
stated that the current request was definitely preferred by Cingular Wireless.
Dr. Ed Lancaster, a Grapevine resident, spoke in support of the request stating that this
request was a good land usage.
With no further speakers, one letter of protest, one letter of support, and no petitions, the
public hearing was closed.
In the Commission's Deliberation Session, there was discussion regarding the current
zoning and the future zoning of this lot and surrounding area. Mr. Oliver stated that it would
be possible for the location to be zoned commercially in the future. Mr. Fry also noted that
for the past four years the Commission has denied almost all monopoles submitted for
approval.
Vote 1. Chris Coy moved, with a second by Bill Bimmerman, to deny Special
Use Request SU02-01, and the motion failed by the following vote:

ZONE CHANGE REQUEST Z01-17 & CONDITIONAL USE REQUEST CU01-67 — NISSAN
Next for the Commission to consider and make a recommendation to the City Council was
Zone Change Request Z01-17 and Conditional Use Request CU01-67 submitted by Nissan
for property located at 440 West State Highway 114 and platted as Lot 1R-1, Block 1R,
Payton -Wright Addition. The applicant was requesting to rezone approximately 7.003 acres
from "HC" Highway Commercial District to "CC" Community Commercial District
Regulations. The applicant was also requesting a conditional use permit for the sale and
service of used cars for a period not to exceed two years.
The State of Texas requires all new automobile dealerships to obtain a new vehicle dealer
license from the Texas Motor Vehicle Commission. This process usually takes one year to
complete, providing there are no appeals involved. In the event of an appeal, the process
could take up to two years to complete. The applicant is proposing to utilize the site for the
sales and service of used cars until a new vehicle dealer license is obtained. The request to
rezone the site to "CC", Community Commercial District is to accommodate the request for
021902 5
P & Z JOINT PUBLIC HEARING

used car sales since the sales of used cars is not an allowed use in the Highway
Commercial District. The Conditional Use Permit will have a maximum time limit of two
years during which time the applicant will be going through the application process with the
Texas Motor Vehicle Commission. The conditional use permit will expire either at the time
the applicant receives the new vehicle dealer license or at the end of two years, whichever
is first.
The Planning and Zoning Commission, at the January 15, 2002 public hearing, voted to
table the above referenced case to the February 19, 2002 public hearing to give the
applicant an opportunity to address site issues regarding screening, lighting, noise, and
landscaping. The applicant requested an extension, asking that the case be tabled until the
April 16, 2002 public hearing.
In the Commission's Deliberation Session, Chris Coy moved, with a second by BJ
Nicholson, to table Zone Change Request Z01-17 and Conditional Use Request CU01-67
until April 16, 2002 Planning and Zoning Commission regular meeting, and the motion
prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Oliver, Fry, Coy, Murray, Nicholson, Busbee, and Undersander

PRELIMINARY PLAT APPLICATION LOT -1, BLOCK 1, CLASSIC HUMMER
Next for the Commission to consider was the Statement of Findings and Preliminary Plat of
Lot 1, Block 1, Classic Hummer submitted by Ronald Hamm for property located at 2501
William D. Tate Avenue, east of State Highway 121 and west of Stone Myers Parkway on
the north side of Prospect Parkway. The applicant was requesting to preliminary platting
13.701 acres for the purpose of re -platting site for the development of the Hummer

TREE REMOVAL APPLICATION TR02-01 — CMPA
Next for the Commission to consider was Tree Removal Application TR02-01 submitted by
CMPA, Inc. for property located at 1450 Hughes Road and platted as Lot 1, Block 1, CMPA
Office. The applicant was requesting a tree removal permit to remove some existing trees.
A site plan for the CMPA Office Phase II development was approved administratively on
November 9, 2001. At that time, the applicant showed six existing trees with a cumulative
total of approximately 68 caliper inches in the rear of the property that were to be preserved.
However, the construction on the site involves relocating an existing detention pond near
the proposed building footprint to the far north side of the tract. A large amount of fill dirt is
necessary to fill in the old detention pond and ensure proper drainage to the new one.
Consequently, the applicant is requesting to remove the existing trees that are affected by
this construction and replace them with 21 trees, including 18 Red Oaks and three Callery
Pears, planted throughout both phases of the CMPA project. As shown, the total sizes of
the 21 mitigating trees will be 68 caliper inches.
In the Commission's deliberation session, Herb Fry moved, with a second by Chris Coy, to
approve Tree Removal Application TR02-01, and the motion prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Oliver, Fry, Coy, Busbee, Nicholson, Undersander, and Bimmerman
