Mayor Tate declared the public hearing open.
Planning & Development Manager Stombaugh reported that Conditional Use Application
CU08-22 had been filed by Goodwill Industries requesting a conditional use permit to
amend the site plan approved by Ordinance No. 96-25 to establish a retail store and drop-
off donation center for Goodwill Industries. The subject property is located at 2100 West
Northwest Highway and is zoned "SP" Site Plan District.
Mr. David Bostick requested favorable consideration of the application. He stated that the
67,534 square foot facility will serve as a donation and retail facility. The location for drop-
off items will be at the rear of the facility where a drive-up/drop-off area is proposed.
Donation drive-up hours are Monday through Saturday 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Sunday noon
to 5 p.m. He then reviewed the various programs and services that Goodwill Industries
offers to its employees. He stated that Goodwill Industries strives to maintain an
employment ratio of 80% disabled workers and that the majority of the program graduates
become gainfully employed and remain employed. He noted they expect the Grapevine
location to attract over 300 shoppers per day on average; approximately 150,000 per year.

The City Council and the Planning & Zoning Commission questioned how the drop-off
location would be monitored and maintained. Mr. Bostick responded that it would be
monitored 24/7 with truck pick-ups when necessary.
Council also questioned the affect the store would have on GRACE that has been serving
citizens and supported by the City for years. Mr. Bostick responded that he was willing to
meet with GRACE and see how the two could work together to benefit their customers.
Mayor Tate invited guests present to comment regarding the application.
The following citizens spoke in opposition to the application. They expressed their support
of Goodwill's mission, but were concerned about property values, traffic issues,what other
stores were planned for the shopping center, questioned whether or not it was the highest
and best use of the property and concern about drop-offs cluttering the area.

The following citizen spoke in favor the application noting the opportunities that Goodwill
provides to those that are disabled and war veterans and commended them for the training
provided for young people. Also, it was his opinion that Goodwill would not be in
competition with GRACE.
Mr. Bruce Rider, 325 West Worth Street
City Secretary Huff read the following letter into the record:
Dear Mayor Tate and Grapevine City Council Members:
I oppose the Conditional Use Application CU08-22 filed by Goodwill
Industries requesting a conditional use permit to amend the site plan
approved by Ordinance No. 96-25 to establish a retail store and drop-off
location center for Goodwill Industries at 2100 West Northwest Highway.
Using the old Albertson's store for a Goodwill Store is a negative solution for
7
09/16/08
the vacant space. A strong anchor store in a shopping center has the www
positive influence of better supporting stores in the same center and thus a
higher cash flow meaning more tax revenue for our city.
A Goodwill Store as the anchor means the site will continue to deteriorate in
the quality of the businesses there, tax revenue will possibly decline and
drop-off points, especially if unattended, can be an eyesore.
As a homeowner close to the site, I also see the Goodwill Store as greatly
degrading the value of the neighborhoods surrounding it.
Last, but certainly not least, Grapevine has wonderful local charity, GRACE.
Let's not negatively impact the resale shops of GRACE by having an out of
town resale giant such as Goodwill move in.
When a Goodwill store moves into a retail space, it signals a decline in the
area. Grapevine has worked too hard in attracting businesses, hotels and
convention visitors to let that start happening.
Sincerely,
Terese (Teri) Martin
2109 Steeplewood Drive (Winding Creek)
Grapevine, TX 76051
City Secretary Huff reported the Council and Commission had been copied the ten letters
of opposition to the application.
Council discussion ensued relative to the shopping center site being a gateway to the City
and the property should be developed as such.
Mayor Tate stated that part of the shopping center is located in Grapevine and part in
Southlake. He stated that the City has been working for some time to get all of the
shopping center in Grapevine. If that is accomplished, then there is more of an opportunity
to upgrade the shopping center. Anytime a center loses its anchor, it is subject to decline
and that is where the center is now. The City Council and the citizens want the center to
go in a different direction and they have to consider what would be the strongest anchor to
lead that center to an upgrade and whether it can be accomplished as a community or not.
It has been difficult to be aggressive in trying to turn around the shopping center without a
strong anchor.
Commissioner Lowery, seconded by Commissioner Martin, offered a motion to close the
public hearing. The motion prevailed by the following vote:

ITEM 9. PUBLIC HEARING, OFFICIAL CITY OF GRAPEVINE FUTURE LAND USE
MAP 2 MP08-02
Mayor Tate declared the public hearing open.
Planning & Development Manager Stombaugh reported that the Official City of Grapevine
Future Land Use Map 2 MP08-02 had been filed by the City of Grapevine for amendments
to certain properties located on Starnes Street from "CO" Commercial and "RM"
Residential Medium Density to"LC" Commercial Light Intensity. Mr. Stombaugh stated that
the Commission, recognizing there is no real buffer between the commercial uses and
residential uses along North Starnes Street, recommended amending the future land use
map for six lots, three on each side of the street, from Residential, Medium Density and
Commercial to Low Intensity Commercial and to allow applicants on a case-by-case basis
to apply for a zone change to either "PO" Professional Office District Regulations or"CN"
Neighborhood Commercial District Regulations. Mr. Stombaugh advised the zoning
districts would be compatible with the land use designation and more suitable for a
transition area from higher intensity commercial uses to residential uses.
There were no questions from the City Council or the Planning & Zoning Commission.
Mayor Tate invited guests present to comment regarding the application. No one wished to
speak and City Secretary Huff reported that the Council and Commission had been copied
