new and used vehicles, specifically to allow the addition of 13,856 square feet to the
existing parts and distribution warehouse.

37,436 square feet. Since 2008 recently approved revisions to the subject site include:
additional acreage, new buildings, revisions to existing buildings, expanded parking,

HISTORY OF TRACT AND SURROUNDING AREA:
The subject property and the property to the north were rezoned from 1-1 ", Light Industrial
District to "CC ", Community Commercial District during the 1984 Citywide Rezoning. At the
Council meeting on June 19, 2001 Conditional Use Permit CU01 -27, approved the
automobile dealership on the subject site. At the February 19, 2002 meeting CU02 -03,
authorized a 5.923 -acre expansion of the original site and revisions to the subject site.
C000 -43, allowing the development of a Corvette Museum on the site located to the north,
was approved on September 19, 2000. The development of the Corvette Museum has not
materialized.
The Stone property, located to the west and south, was not zoned when it was a part of
unincorporated Tarrant County. When the property was annexed into the City on July 20,
1993, it was automatically zoned "R -20" Single Family District. Zone Change request Z98-
19, approved in August 1998, rezoned a portion of the A.C. Stone Tract from "R -20 ", Single
Family District to "PID" Planned Industrial Development District for the development of
Frank Parra Dodge. Conditional Use Permit CU99 -78 was approved on June 20, 2000
allowing for the development of the Frank Parra Dodge dealership. Zone Change request
99 -10 was approved on January 18, 2000, rezoning the remaining Stone property from "R-
20", Single Family District to "CC ", Community Commercial District, "LI ", Light Industrial
District and "BP ", Business Park District. A conditional use request (C000 -45) for an
automotive dealership (Audi) was considered on the subject site at the November21, 2000
meeting but was denied. Conditional use request CU01 -27 was approved on this site for
the Classic Hummer dealership on June 19, 2001. The site was subsequently amended at
the February 19, 2003 meeting (CU02 -03) and allowed for an expansion of the Hummer
dealership building, and the relocation of the Classic Chevrolet used truck operation to the
site. A 20 -foot pole sign was also approved. At the November 19, 2002 public hearing
Council approved a revision (CU02 -49) to the Hummer dealership site that included a 5.3
acre addition to the site for a lube and tune center, a vehicle washing area, and an
employee parking lot. The Site Plan Review Committee at their December 18, 2002
meeting (CU02 -51) approved an increase from 7 -feet to 10 -feet and from 48 square feet to
85 square feet for a monument sign at the Hummer dealership site. The Site Plan Review
Committee at their July 23, 2003 meeting (CU03 -25) approved an increase from 20 -feet to
30 -feet for a pole sign at the Hummer dealership site. At the meeting on September 16,
2003 Council approved CU03 -34 for an automotive reconditioning /detail shop on the
subject site. At the September 8, 2004 Site Plan Review Committee meeting Conditional
Use Permit CU04 -30 approved shade structures over the bulk of the vehicle display area.
At the March 12, 2008 Site Plan Review Committee meeting Conditional Use Permit CU08-
05 approved an accessory vehicle fueling station on the subject site. Conditional Use
Request CU08 -23 (Ord. 2008 -55) approved at the October 21, 2008 joint public hearing

October 20, 2009 meeting Council approved a one -year extension to the previously
approved Conditional Use Permit CU08 -23. Conditional Use Request CU10 -01 (Ord.
2010 -04) approved at the February 16, 2010 joint public hearing allowed the addition of
1,300 square feet to the existing parts distribution facility. At the May 5, 2010 Site Plan
Review Committee meeting Conditional Use Permit CU 10 -07 approved the addition of 157
parking spaces, revised the parking configuration and exterior elevations for the fleet sales
building, and relocated a previously approved pole sign. Conditional Use Request CU11-

Re: Revision request to Classic Hummer Addition
Dear Mr. Stombaugh:
Classic Chevrolet's parts distribution and sales have continued to grow. We built the original warehouse
facility in 2002. We added on to it in 2009. Once again, Mr. Durant is in need of expanding the
warehouse to support the ever - increasing demand for parts and accessories.
As you can see in the drawings, we are expanding by 13,856 square feet. This addition will
accommodate engine and transmission storage. The building footprint was designed to "fit" within the
existing utility easements. We did not want to attempt to move the existing underground services.
There will be three (3) trees and several shrubs removed prior to sitework. It is our request to not
replace them or add any additional landscaping. This facility is near the heavily treed portion of the
property, and it seems redundant to add any more trees. This is not a monetary issue as much as a
practical one.
We do not believe the addition will cause farm or loss of value to the adjoining property or
neighborhood in any way.
As always, we greatly appreciate your help on previous applications and revisions. Therefore, we
respectfully request that you consider for approval the revision to Classic Hummer Addition.
Sincerely,
Ronald A. Hamm
Principal/Vice President
