Chairman Shope called on David Klempin to present the case. MAY 22 HPC\Minutes\2019 6 101 Certificate of Appropriateness application #CA19-33 was submitted on April 24, 2019 by the applicant, Neal Cooper of Copper Street Homes, to remove the existing one -car garage, laundry room and study wing on the north end of the existing house; to replace with a new one-story addition to include a new entry, kitchen, family room and a master bedroom and bath; and to construct a new one and one-half story, 998 square foot, detached two -car garage building with shop and porch, at the rear of the property. The proposed one and one half story structure is 21 feet tall. The property is not landmarked and the owner has not submitted a landmark application for the property. The owners proposed to expand the home to serve the needs of their family. The existing house was built in 1941 and contains 1,616 square feet of living area and has a 343 square foot attached one -car garage. With the removal of the garage, laundry and study on the north end, the remaining house would be 1,241 square feet. The proposed north end addition would contain 1,811 square feet to total 3,052 square feet of living area. The existing front porch of 128 square feet; proposed front porch addition of 118 square feet, side porch of 64 square feet and screened porch of 217 square feet; are not to be included in the 3,400 square foot maximum, per the Preservation Ordinance. At the rear of the property, the proposed one and one-half story, 998 square foot, detached two -car garage building with shop would include a porch of 456 square feet. The property lot size is 24,400 square feet and the building coverage would be 20.7%, (maximum 40% lot coverage). Total building size of house with detached garage and shop would be 4,050 square feet which is within the ordinance (maximum of 4,100 square feet). Building height is 20 feet. Staff recommended the Historic Preservation Commission deny Certificate of Appropriateness #CA19-33 for the property located at 521 South Dooley Street, legally described as Block 1 Lot 1, Weaver 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. Streetscape View: The new addition with the remaining portion of the existing house would be 82 feet 11 inches wide along Dooley Street, the house to the north is approximately 35 feet wide and the house to the south is approximately 40 feet wide; the proposed structure would be twice the width of adjoining houses on either side; the removal of the existing study, laundry and garage alters the street scape view; 2. The proposed one and one-half, 998 square foot garage and shop building with MAY 22 HPC\Minutes\2019 7 attached 456 square foot covered porch would be very large in relation to garage buildings on adjoining properties which are small two car structures. The proposed structure requires a variance to combine the 500 square foot garage, 200 square foot storage building as allowed by the Ordinance and another 298 square feet from the 3,400 square foot allowed maximum living area. The proposed structure is 21 feet tall, The Historic Preservation Officer, Director of Convention and Visitors Bureau and Building Official recommend denial of the request for a 998 square feet garage with 456 square foot covered porch; as per the submitted plans. David Klempin told the Commission that he, Paul W. McCallum and Historic Preservation staff had met with Ryan and Sommer Tate today and a revised plan had been submitted within the City of Grapevine Design Guidelines for property on a wide lot. The 82 -foot front fagade as submitted had not fit in the streetscape with the north and south neighboring structures each being less than half that wide. The guideline's direction was to make a new addition appear as two structures to reduce massing by retaining the existing house as in the plans and to setback the new addition to appear as a separate structure; the new plan had been submitted in 3D to show the setbacks reduction in the massing. Chairman Shope asked Mr. Klempin to list the changes made for the new recommended plans for approval by the Commission. Mr. Klempin said as part of the existing house at the front entry, the siding "as shown" on the porch gable would be removed and the gable opened creating the "separation" needed between the original existing house and the new addition. The new proposed addition, as shown on the plans, would have the kitchen porch roof removed and replaced with a flat pergola. P.W. McCallum said the Design Guidelines for a wide lot direct to try for the appearance of two structures; with the separation of the new addition there are actually two setbacks. The first reflects the original single -car garage; the deep recess between the existing house and new addition setback again -not the continuous 82 feet. The eight - foot wall going 12 feet deep, and another at 30 and 17 feet wide. This plan yielded the look of two separate structures and preserved the original structure. For the variance on the garage, the 24 feet wide garage sits at the back of the property as a positive effect with the board and batten like a nice barn; the depth of the barn is not perceptible. The homeowners have clearly met the Design Guidelines with these changes. Chairman Shope called on Ryan and Sommer Tate for their comments. Mrs. Tate said they had worked on this for two years since October 2017, they had reconsidered their original plans of going up with a second story and brought forth the one-story plans. They worked to balance what they liked with what the Design Guidelines called for; with a bigger open lot they wanted a nice barn like a Nash Farm barn for their garage/workshop. Mr. Tate said they were both born and raised here and had always wanted to come back to Grapevine's downtown, they are the only family with children in their area making greenspace a big concern for their children to have rear and side MAY 22 HPC\Minutes\2019 8 HPC 05.22.19 yards, the Dooley Street front yard is not a place for children to play. They do have a long walk to and from their garage but it meant saving a giant oak tree and morc eenspace for the kids. Commissioner Volker asked about the size of the garage, Mr. Tate said he is involved with wood working plus he likes to park his truck in garage and still be able to use for a work area. Commissioner Parker asked about demolition, Mrs. Tate said what they were removing used to be a breezeway which was originally a walkway to the laundry room, a very utilitarian space not usable space and they could not add on to the back or want to go up for living space.
