Zoning Board of Adjustment Minutes December 8, 2015
City of Colleyville Page 2
Christina Hill, the builder, Jonson and Jaime Lake, the homeowners
came forward and briefed the Board.
Board member McNosky asked staff to address Mrs. Lake’s question
regarding why staff was recommending denial. Shane Pace replied
staff was recommending denial due to technical noncompliance.
Mrs. Lake questioned staff regarding what the issue was with the
structure being built close to or on the property line. Abra Nusser
replied when structures are built close to one another, fire code
requirements are triggered.
Mrs. Lake questioned staff regarding whether the property owner to
the south had requested a permit for any type of structure along the
same property line as their proposed structure. Abra Nusser replied
research had not been done to determine that.
Board member Elms questioned Ms. Hill regarding whether there were
any topographical constraints. Ms. Hill replied there is a pool and a
25 foot easement in the rear of the property. She further added the
structure could not be placed anywhere else on the property. Mr.
Lake added there would be a 48 inch gate placed along the front of
the driveway and an existing gate on the north side of the property.
Board member Elms questioned Ms. Hill regarding whether a variance
would be needed if the square footage was reduced. Ms. Hill replied
there was only three foot of buildable space on the south side of the
property, not enough to get a car through. Mrs. Lake added their
original plan was much larger, the proposed plan is already reduced.
Discussion continued regarding potential placement and size of the
structure.
There being no one else wishing to speak the public hearing was
closed at 7:36 p.m.
Board member Elms stated he felt the hardship was self-imposed.
Board member McNosky stated she concurred with Board member
Elms but a permit had been issued.
Discussion continued regarding whether or not there was a hardship
in this case.
Board member Elms made a motion to deny Case VC15-012.

Shane Pace presented the case and briefed the Board.
Frank Ritz, the applicant and builder, came forward and briefed the
Board.
The public hearing was opened at 7:41 p.m.
Board member Kamerman questioned Mr. Ritz if the property would
be subdivided or would there be a single family residential dwelling
unit. Mr. Ritz replied there would be one single family residential
dwelling unit. He further added they have already submitted a
building permit for the dwelling unit.
Board member Elms questioned staff regarding whether the taking of
Right-of-Way would be to the centerline of the road or to the edge of
the road. Shane Pace replied to the centerline of the road.
There being no one else wishing to speak, the public hearing was
closed at 7:43 p.m.
Discussion occurred regarding there being a hardship due to the lot
never being developed and bringing it up to compliance with current
codes.

The motion to approve Case VC15-013 carried by the following

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 9, Block 4, of
the Fairway Addition, located at 6801 Herbert Road, Case VC15-014
Explanation
Terry Weakley, the applicant, is requesting approval of a variance to the
requirements of Section 3.26 Fences, Free Standing Walls, and Screening
Materials of the Land Development Code, on approximately 0.90 acres located at
6801 Herbert Road. The applicant proposes to construct a fence along the front
property line which will encroach 30 feet into the required front yard setback.
Existing Conditions/Background: The subject property is generally located on
the east side of Herbert Road, south of Murphy Road, and north of McDonwell
School Road. It is zoned R-20 Single Family Residential District, and is currently
platted as Lot 9, Block 4, of the Fairway Addition.
The subject property was previously developed with one single family home which
was recently demolished. The applicant is in the process of constructing a new
single family residence on the subject property, and desires to construct a new
fence. Upon submittal of a fence permit application, the applicant was informed
that the desired location for the fence was not permitted. Based on this
information, the applicant has requested consideration of a variance to allow the
fence to be constructed along the front property line.
Requested Variance: The applicant is requesting a variance to allow for the
construction of a six-foot wrought iron fence with stone columns along the front
(west) property line. The proposed placement would encroach 30 feet into the
front building setback (see attached Site Plan exhibit). The applicant has indicated
the intent to construct a retention pond within the front yard which will be used for
irrigation and aesthetic purposes. The applicant has stated that the fence is
necessary for public safety and to prohibit anyone from entering the pond from
outside of the property.
City of Colleyville Page 2
Zoning Board of Adjustment Agenda February 9, 2016
Ordinance – Chapter 3 (Land Use) of the Land Development Code prohibits all
fences greater than 30 inches in height from being located within the required
front yard setback (Section 3.26.E.1.). Section 3.26.E. also contains a provision
allowing for fences to be located within the front yard setback on lots greater than
40,000 square feet, but the subject property is 39,600 square feet:
“Exceptions to front yard requirement: Lots containing a minimum of 40,000
square feet, and subdivisions, shall be allowed to construct a perimeter
fence within the front yard setback. Said fencing shall be no greater than
eight (8) feet in height and shall have no greater than twenty-five (25)
percent solid construction within the front yard. Allowed construction
materials shall be the same as paragraph “1.a” above. This exception shall
not apply to properties zoned as a PUD district.”
Chapter 1 (General Provisions) of the Land Development Code authorizes the
Zoning Board of Adjustment to grant variances to the fence requirements set forth
in Chapter 3 (Land Use):
“where the literal enforcement of the provisions of the ordinance would
result in an unnecessary hardship, and where such variance is necessary to
permit a specific parcel of land which differs from other parcels of land in the
same district by being of such restricted area, shape or slope that it cannot
be developed in a manner commensurate with the development permitted
upon other parcels of land in the same district. A modification of the
standards established by this ordinance shall not be granted to relieve a self-
created or personal hardship, nor for financial reason only, nor shall such
modification be granted to permit any person a privilege in developing a
parcel of land not permitted by this ordinance to other parcels of land in the
district.”
Analysis – The proposed fence type and location contributes to the rural character
of the city, and could be aesthetically appealing. However, the applicant has not
presented a hardship as defined by the Land Development Code on the subject
property. There are no unique topographical features requiring the fence to be
placed at the front property line, and the inclusion of the pond within the front
yard is a self-imposed hardship. The pond is not a requirement by the City, and is
therefore not grounds for a hardship.
Surrounding Development: The table below reflects the surrounding zoning and
existing land uses for the subject property as further illustrated on the attached
location map:

Public Notification: Staff mailed notices to 17 property owners within 200 feet of
the subject property regarding this request. Keller ISD, where the subject property
is located, was notified per State law. Notice was published in the Fort Worth Star-
Telegram as required by State law and the Land Development Code. To date, staff
has received no correspondence for the request.
Staff Recommendation: The applicant has not presented a hardship as defined
by the Land Development Code on the subject property. There are alternative
locations for the proposed fence which meet the requirements of the Land
Development Code. There is also the option to make the fence less than 30 inches
tall, which would meet the requirements of the Land Development Code, and
would allow for the proposed placement. Staff recommends denial of the
proposed variance.

the Land Development Code on Lot 3-R, Block 1, of the Andy Felps Addition, located at
3919 Colleyville Boulevard, Case VC16-001
Explanation
Tony Eeds, the applicant, is requesting approval of a variance to the required minimum
parking standards for commercial buildings, on approximately 0.44 acres, located at
3919 Colleyville Boulevard. Due to site constraints and the inability to utilize the
building at full capacity, the applicant has submitted a site plan and variance request
for consideration. The applicant’s intent is to remove a portion of the building and
redesign the parking and site circulation to improve the property.
Existing Conditions/Background: The subject property is generally located on the
east side of Colleyville Boulevard and north of Cheek-Sparger Road. It is zoned CC-2
Shopping Center District, and is currently platted as Lot 3R1, Block 1, of the Andy
Felps Addition.
The subject property is developed with one existing commercial building, constructed
in 1979, which is proposed to be remodeled. The building currently contains three
suites totaling approximately 7,140 square feet. The building has historically had
vacant lease space, and the property owner has had challenges marketing the lease
space to prospective retail tenants due to the lack of available parking on-site (in
conjunction with the associated minimum parking requirements). Due to site
constraints, the current area of the building, when occupied at 100 percent by retail or
similar uses, exceeds the available parking spaces on-site.
In an effort to utilize the building to its full potential, the applicant has submitted a site
plan for staff review and approval to allow for a portion of the existing building to be
demolished (1,722 square feet). The reduction in gross leasable space to 5,418 square
feet will decrease the required number of parking spaces on-site, and provide an
opportunity to lease the remaining space for retail or similar uses.
Requested Variance: The applicant is requesting to provide 23 parking spaces,
versus the required 28 parking spaces on the subject property (reduction by five
spaces). Please note that the applicant’s materials state 27 parking spaces required,
but 28 parking spaces are required (5,418/200). The applicant has stated in the
Zoning Board of Adjustment Agenda Briefing 4b
City of Colleyville Page 2
Statement of Planning Objectives that the subject property is small in size, fully
developed, and landlocked by fully-developed commercial sites. Additionally, the
applicant asserts that parking is not adequate on the site to allow the building to be
fully occupied with retail and similar uses. Finally, the applicant describes the
appropriation of right-of-way to the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) for
future improvements along Colleyville Boulevard, which reduces the available parking
by two spaces.
The proposed site plan provides one-way drive aisles along the sides and rear of the
property. This design was utilized to increase the number of parking spaces by
reducing the drive aisle widths. Utilizing angled parking on the site allowed for the
inclusion of three new landscape islands on the subject property. Additionally, the use
of parallel parking spaces along the southern and eastern property lines created
additional areas for new landscaping and trees.
Although the site is surrounded by commercial development, no feasible off-site
parking is available. The southern and western property lines are constrained by an
existing retaining wall, and no cross access easement exists on the north side of the
property. The applicant has attempted to coordinate an off-site parking agreement
with Capital One Bank to the south but was unsuccessful in their efforts.
Ordinance – Chapter 3 (Land Use) of the Land Development Code requires all
commercial properties to provide adequate parking on-site to meet the needs of the
businesses operating on the premises unless an off-site parking agreement is secured.
The parking ratio for retail land uses, as defined by Section 3.29 – Parking
Requirements of the Land Development Code, is one space per 200 square feet of
gross floor area. The current and proposed parking analysis are as follows:

Chapter 1 (General Provisions) of the Land Development Code authorizes the Zoning
Board of Adjustment to grant variances to the minimum parking requirements
“where the literal enforcement of the provisions of the ordinance would result in
an unnecessary hardship, and where such variance is necessary to permit a
specific parcel of land which differs from other parcels of land in the same district
by being of such restricted area, shape or slope that it cannot be developed in a
manner commensurate with the development permitted upon other parcels of
land in the same district. A modification of the standards established by this
ordinance shall not be granted to relieve a self-created or personal hardship, nor
for financial reason only, nor shall such modification be granted to permit any
person a privilege in developing a parcel of land not permitted by this ordinance
to other parcels of land in the district”
Analysis – The proposed design provides more controlled site circulation. In addition,
the new landscaping and striping could provide improved aesthetics for an aging
commercial building in a key location in the Colleyville Boulevard Corridor. The
applicant has demonstrated hardship on the subject property as defined by the Land
Development Code. The site is “restricted in area” due to the topographical elevation
changes at the south and eastern property lines and reasonable off-site parking
agreements are not available. Additionally, the site is “restricted in area” due to the
dedication of right-of-way to the future improvements of State Highway 26 (Colleyville
Boulevard). The dedication of right-of-way reduces the number of on-site parking
spaces by two.
Finally, the subject property cannot physically accommodate the total number of
parking spaces required to allow the building to be occupied at full capacity by
marketable users. Instead of a self-imposed hardship where an applicant is
experiencing space constraints due to enlarging a building, the applicant is proposing
to demolish a portion of the building and improve the site instead.
Comprehensive Plan: The City’s comprehensive plan, Destination Colleyville,
identifies the subject property as located within the Southern Gateway of the
Colleyville Boulevard Corridor. Additionally, the subject property is located near a Sales
Tax-Preferred Intersection. One of the major goals of the comprehensive plan is to
Zoning Board of Adjustment Agenda Briefing 4b
City of Colleyville Page 4
address the redevelopment and enhancement of properties along the Corridor, and to
facilitate high-quality redevelopment. Further, the intent is to create a cohesive
development character along the Corridor and create a memorable entry point into the
city.
Based on the goals set forth by the comprehensive plan, the subject property as
described above, should be redeveloped in a manner consistent with the vision for the
future of Colleyville Boulevard. The modifications presented by the applicant appear to
improve the property and utilize it to its greatest extent within the applicable
constraints. Unless or until the subject property is combined with other properties in
the vicinity, it will remain significantly limited in function.

Public Notification: Staff mailed notices to six property owners within 200 feet of the
subject property regarding this request. Grapevine-Colleyville ISD, where the subject
property is located, was notified per State law. Notice was published in the Fort Worth
Star-Telegram as required by State law and the Land Development Code. To date, staff
has received one letter of support for the request.
Staff Recommendation: The applicant has presented multiple hardships on the site
as defined by the Land Development Code, and several improvements to the site
function and aesthetics are being proposed. As such, staff recommends approval of
the proposed variance.
