PUBLIC HEARING
BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT CASE BZA20-03. SAM MESSINA. 948
MEADOWBROOK DRIVE
The first item for the Board of Zoning Adjustment to consider was BZA20-03 submitted
by Sam Messina for property located at 948 Meadowbrook Drive, Lot 16A, Block E,
Brookhollow Estates.
Section 42.C.3, Supplementary District Regulations, Accessory Buildings
requires accessory buildings in a residential district be located on the rear one-
half of the lot and at least 10-feet from any dwelling or building. The applicant
requested a special exception allowing construction of an accessory structure to be
used as a garage to be located in the front one-half of the lot as shown on the plot plan.

Mr. Triplett explained that staff found a special condition existed for the requested
special exception. Specifically, requiring placement of a detached garage in the rear
yard was impractical because of the location of the dwelling and due to an existing
flowage easement throughout most of the rear yard.
Mr. Triplett stated that the existing dwelling was constructed in 1969 and a plat
approved in December 2019 expanded the subject site from approximately 8,030
square feet to 2.76 acres. All other ordinance requirements would be met for the 800
square foot detached garage.
With no questions for Mr. Triplett, Sam Messina of 948 Meadowbrook Drive, Grapevine,
Texas, participating by telephone using the number and meeting ID that were posted on
the Agenda, 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.
With no questions for Mr. Messina and no additional speakers, Ben Johnson made a
motion to close the public hearing. Doug Anderson seconded the motion which
prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Dierolf, Sheppard, Johnson, Dalton, Anderson
Nays: None
Absent: None

exception. Specifically, the placement of the detached garage in the rear yard was
