Zoning Board of Adjustment Minutes July 14, 2015 City of Colleyville Page 2 Louie Ocana, the president of the building company, came forward and spoke in support. Board member Elms questioned Mr. Reid regarding whether a different layout for the new home was considered versus asking for a variance. He added he did not believe there was a hardship for this case. Mr. Reid replied they would have considered a different layout, however, the current layout was designed based on the idea of having trees for privacy and shade. Board member McNosky stated she understood the builder would have designed a different layout if there were no trees prior to construction. She further stated the City of Colleyville has requirements for tree removal and proper procedure had to have been taken for the trees on the property to the west to have been removed. Discussion continued regarding the lot and the removal of trees. Board member McNosky questioned staff regarding whether the patio was figured in with the lot coverage calculation. Patia Boomsma replied the patio is flatwork and is not included. Board member Collier questioned staff regarding which developments in the city were allowed fifty percent lot coverage. Patia Boomsma replied the developments that are allowed up to fifty percent lot coverage are in Planned Unit Development (PUD) areas, where lots are considerably smaller in size. There being no one else wishing to speak, the public hearing was closed at 7:24 p.m. Board member Elms made a motion to deny Case VC15-003. Board member Orlando seconded.

Zoning Board of Adjustment Minutes July 14, 2015 City of Colleyville Page 3 The public hearing was opened at 7:28 p.m. Gary Belue, the applicant, came forward and briefed the Board. Board member Orlando questioned staff regarding whether there were fence requirements for screening between commercial uses. Patia Boomsma replied no. Board member Orlando questioned Mr. Belue regarding whether there was an existing footer for a fence. Mr. Belue replied yes. Board member Orlando questioned Mr. Belue what was to the north of the subject property. Mr. Belue replied residences and a homeowner’s association detention pond. Board member Kamerman questioned Mr. Belue regarding whether the tree they were attempting to protect would be boxed in the same way it currently is. Mr. Belue replied yes but they would be creating a little more room for the tree. Discussion occurred regarding the current conditions along the property line. Board member Orlando stated he had concerns regarding drainage from 805 Regina Court. Patia Boomsma stated the city had codes regarding drainage requirements that would not allow for someone create more drainage on someone else’s property. Board member Elms made a motion to approve Case VC15-005 with the following conditions: 1) the existing six foot fence be removed 2) an eight foot fence be constructed using the existing footers and 3) the builder shall replace any damaged landscaping.

City of Colleyville Page 1 City of Colleyville Zoning Board of Adjustment Agenda Briefing City Hall 100 Main Street Colleyville, Texas 76034 www.colleyville.com Agenda Number 2a Agenda Date 09/08/2015 Number Type Public Hearing Agenda Items Department Community Development Title Request for a variance to certain provisions of Section 3.26 Fences, Free Standing Walls, and Screening Materials of the Land Development Code on Lot 3, Block 2, of the Glenhope Addition, located at 6613 Glenhope Circle North, Case VC15-007 Explanation The applicant, Paul Carrocci, is requesting a variance to the requirements for fences in the Land Development Code, located at 6613 Glenhope Circle North. Existing Conditions and Zoning. The subject property is zoned “R20” – Single Family Residential District and has an existing single family home. It is surrounded by R20 zoning to the north, west, and south, and to the east is the City of Grapevine, and all surrounding properties are developed with single family residential homes. There is currently no fence on the subject property. The owner states that the house was constructed in 1984, and the previous owner never installed a fence. Proposed Development. The applicant is proposing to install a fence on the subject property to enclose the residential yard. The applicant is requesting a variance because the proposed fence location does not meet the requirements of the Land Development Code. Land Development Code. Section 3.26 E(2) states: “E. Fence and Free Standing Wall Setback Requirements … 2. Corner Side Yards: Except where allowed elsewhere in this chapter, fences and walls within a required side yard adjacent to a street right of way shall meet the following setback standards: A privacy fence or wall (which shall be defined as any fence or wall greater than thirty inches (30”) in height or greater than 25 percent opaque construction) within a required street side yard shall be subject to whichever of the following provisions a) through d) shall yield the greatest setback: a. If the subject lot has a street side yard which faces a dwelling front or lot front across the side street, the side yard privacy fence or wall shall be located not less than fifteen feet (15’) from the property line, except on any Zoning Board of Adjustment Agenda Briefing 2a City of Colleyville Page 2 lot having either a required side yard less than fifteen (15’) feet or an existing primary structure setback less than fifteen (15’) feet, then the fence or wall may be constructed with the same setback as the primary structure; or b. If the subject lot backs to the rear of another residential lot, the side yard privacy fence or wall shall be located not less than fifteen feet (15’) from the side property line; or c. If the subject lot backs to the side of another residential lot, the side yard privacy fence or wall shall be located not closer to the side property line than the required front setback of the adjoining lot; or…” The existing home fronts on Pool Road but takes access off of Glenhope Circle North, and the subject lot backs to the side of another residential lot to the west (so it falls under letter “c” above). The proposed fence is proposed to be up to six feet tall. The applicant has stated that it will either be wrought iron or wrought iron with wood paneling. The applicant is not requesting a variance to the proposed materials so it would need to be wrought iron, of those two options. The proposed fence would be considered a privacy fence or wall under the above stated provisions and would therefore be required to be set back a minimum of 30 feet from Glenhope Circle North, which is the front yard setback minimum in the governing zoning district. Requested Variance. The applicant is requesting to install the proposed fence approximately 7.5 feet from the northern property line versus the required fence setback in this instance of 30 feet. Public Notification. Staff mailed notices to 11 property owners within 200 feet of the site, in addition to courtesy notices to the applicant, Grapevine-Colleyville ISD, and the City of Grapevine (to the east of the subject property), and no responses have been received as of the time of this writing. Summary. Staff recognizes that the subject property has unique characteristics, in terms of fronting on Pool Road and taking access off of Glenhope Circle North, in addition to an existing retaining wall. Due to the established streetscape along Glenhope Circle North (see Photo Exhibit provided by applicant, attached) and the adjacent established residential home to the west that has no fence within the front yard, Staff has assessed that a more appropriate location of the proposed fence would be on top of the existing retaining wall line, where the fence would be within the 30- foot setback. This compromise approach would still require a variance to the same requirement, but the fence would be set back farther and would correlate to the existing site features and disturb the existing mature tree line less than the proposed location. Zoning Board of Adjustment Agenda Briefing 2a City of Colleyville Page 3 Recommendation Approve as recommended by Staff.

Existing Conditions and Zoning. The subject property is zoned “PUDR” – Planned Unit Development Residential District (Ordinance No. O-98-1106) and has an existing single family home within the Westmont Addition that was recently constructed. It is surrounded by the same PUDR zoning on all sides, and the surrounding properties to the north, east, and south are developed with single family residential homes. The property to the west is a City park, McPherson Park. There is currently no fence on the subject property. Proposed Development. The applicant is proposing to install a fence on the subject property to enclose the residential yard. The applicant is requesting a variance because the proposed location of the fence does not meet the requirements of the Land Development Code. Land Development Code. Section 3.26 E(2) states: “E. Fence and Free Standing Wall Setback Requirements … 2. Corner Side Yards: Except where allowed elsewhere in this chapter, fences and walls within a required side yard adjacent to a street right of way shall meet the following setback standards: A privacy fence or wall (which shall be defined as any fence or wall greater than thirty inches (30”) in height or greater than 25 percent opaque construction) within a required street side yard shall be subject to whichever of the following provisions a) through d) shall yield the greatest setback: a. If the subject lot has a street side yard which faces a dwelling front or lot front across the side street, the side yard privacy fence or wall shall be Zoning Board of Adjustment Agenda Briefing 2b City of Colleyville Page 2 located not less than fifteen feet (15’) from the property line, except on any lot having either a required side yard less than fifteen (15’) feet or an existing primary structure setback less than fifteen (15’) feet, then the fence or wall may be constructed with the same setback as the primary structure; or b. If the subject lot backs to the rear of another residential lot, the side yard privacy fence or wall shall be located not less than fifteen feet (15’) from the side property line; or c. If the subject lot backs to the side of another residential lot, the side yard privacy fence or wall shall be located not closer to the side property line than the required front setback of the adjoining lot; or…” The existing home fronts on Bartram Road, and the subject lot backs to the rear of another residential lot to the south (so it falls under letter “b” above). This requirement’s interpretation is illustrated by the attached exhibit (“LDC Requirement Illustration”) created by staff for reference. The proposed fence is six feet tall and tubular galvanized steel (similar to wrought iron). Requested Variance. The applicant is requesting to install a fence along the south side of the subject property, approximately seven feet, six inches from the rear property line, and a portion of the west side of the subject property, approximately 11 feet from the western side property line. The portion of the fence that is along the western side of the subject property is required to be set back 15 feet from the western property line where the fence is not within the rear yard. Instead of the required 15-foot setback, the applicant is proposing to provide the fence 11 feet from the western property line (see attached Site Plan exhibit). Public Notification. Staff mailed notices to 14 property owners within 200 feet of the site, in addition to courtesy notices to the applicant and Keller ISD, and no responses have been received as of the time of this writing. Summary. Although no hardship as defined by the Land Development Code has been demonstrated by the applicant, Staff recognizes that at least one other fence in the subject property’s neighborhood, the fence associated with the residential lot that backs to the subject property, has been permitted to be installed in a similar configuration (see attached Street View Image exhibit). Since the proposed fence location and configuration are consistent with adjacent fence configurations, and the fence location should not adversely affect the neighboring properties or the subdivision as a whole, Staff recommends approval of the proposed variance request.

The proposed fence variance is one of three fence variances being considered concurrently for the same subdivision. Existing Conditions and Zoning. The subject property is zoned “PUDR” – Planned Unit Development Residential District (Ordinance No. O-08-1672) and has an existing single family home under construction within the Somerset Manor Addition. It is surrounded by the same PUDR zoning on all sides, and all surrounding properties are developed with single family residential homes (future construction, under construction, or completed). Proposed Development. The applicant is proposing to install a fence on the subject property to enclose the residential yard. The applicant is requesting a variance because the proposed location of the fence does not meet the requirements of the Land Development Code. Land Development Code. Section 3.26 E(2) states: “E. Fence and Free Standing Wall Setback Requirements … 2. Corner Side Yards: Except where allowed elsewhere in this chapter, fences and walls within a required side yard adjacent to a street right of way shall meet the following setback standards: A privacy fence or wall (which shall be defined as any fence or wall greater than thirty inches (30”) in height or greater than 25 percent opaque construction) within a required street side yard shall be subject to whichever of the following provisions a) through d) shall yield the greatest setback: Zoning Board of Adjustment Agenda Briefing 2c City of Colleyville Page 2 a.

The proposed fence is eight feet tall and cedar board-on-board material. Requested Variance. The applicant is requesting to install a fence along the west, north, and east sides of the subject property. The portion of the fence that is along the eastern side of the subject property, adjacent to Benjamin Way, is required to be set back 15 feet from the western property line where the fence is not within the rear yard. Instead of the required 15-foot setback, the applicant is proposing to provide the fence three feet from the eastern property line (see attached Site Plan exhibit).

Staff mailed notices to four property owners within 200 feet of the site, in addition to courtesy notices to the applicant, Keller ISD, and City of Keller, and no responses have been received as of the time of this writing.

The proposed fence variance is one of three fence variances being considered concurrently for the same subdivision. Existing Conditions and Zoning. The subject property is zoned “PUDR” – Planned Unit Development Residential District (Ordinance No. O-08-1672) and has an existing single family home within the Somerset Manor Addition. It is surrounded by the same PUDR zoning on all sides, and all surrounding properties are developed with single family residential homes (future construction, under construction, or completed). Proposed Development. The applicant is proposing to install a fence on the subject property to enclose the residential yard. The applicant is requesting a variance because the proposed location of the fence does not meet the requirements of the Land Development Code. Land Development Code. Section 3.26 E(2) states: “E. Fence and Free Standing Wall Setback Requirements … 2. Corner Side Yards: Except where allowed elsewhere in this chapter, fences and walls within a required side yard adjacent to a street right of way shall meet the following setback standards: A privacy fence or wall (which shall be defined as any fence or wall greater than thirty inches (30”) in height or greater than 25 percent opaque construction) within a required street side yard shall be subject to whichever of the following provisions a) through d) shall yield the greatest setback: a. If the subject lot has a street side yard which faces a dwelling front or lot Zoning Board of Adjustment Agenda Briefing 2d City of Colleyville Page 2 front across the side street, the side yard privacy fence or wall shall be located not less than fifteen feet (15’) from the property line, except on any lot having either a required side yard less than fifteen (15’) feet or an existing primary structure setback less than fifteen (15’) feet, then the fence or wall may be constructed with the same setback as the primary structure; or b. If the subject lot backs to the rear of another residential lot, the side yard privacy fence or wall shall be located not less than fifteen feet (15’) from the side property line; or c. If the subject lot backs to the side of another residential lot, the side yard privacy fence or wall shall be located not closer to the side property line than the required front setback of the adjoining lot; or…” The existing home fronts on Guthrie Court, and the subject lot backs to the rear of another residential lot to the south (so it falls under letter “b” above). This requirement’s interpretation is illustrated by the attached exhibit (“LDC Requirement Illustration”) created by staff for reference. The proposed fence is eight feet tall and cedar board-on-board material. Requested Variance. The applicant is requesting to install a fence along the west, south, and east sides of the subject property. The portion of the fence that is along the eastern side of the subject property, adjacent to Benjamin Way, is required to be set back 15 feet from the western property line where the fence is not within the rear yard. Instead of the required 15-foot setback, the applicant is proposing to provide the fence three feet from the eastern property line (see attached Site Plan exhibit). There is no retaining wall on the eastern side of the lot contributing to the variance request. Public Notification. Staff mailed notices to three property owners within 200 feet of the site, in addition to courtesy notices to the applicant, Keller ISD, and City of Keller, and no responses have been received as of the time of this writing. Summary. No hardship as defined by the Land Development Code has been demonstrated by the applicant, and no unique site characteristics have been described. As such, staff recommends denial of the proposed fence variance.
