ZONING CHANGE REQUEST FOR 7701 BELLAIRE DRIVE S
ZONING CASE ZC-18-137 The proposed site is located east of Bellaire Drive. The applicant is requesting to rezone approximately 2.60 acres from “F” General Commercial to PD/C Planned Development for all uses in “C” Medium Density Multifamily with waivers to density, height, building separation and setbacks for construction of an apartment complex oriented toward the retirement population.
The site plan indicates a 60 unit, four story multifamily development with 120 individual garages below the living units. Surrounding uses include one story offices to the north and south and single family uses to the west. A mini warehouse development is across the creek to the east. The four story multifamily development would be a larger structure than is in the general area. While the applicant requested the “C” based district in the application, the density and height are considered more appropriate for the “D” High
Density Multifamily zoning which allows up to 24 units per acre and the waiver to height for four stories (“D” has a maximum of three stories or 32 feet.).
A complete description of the request can be found on pages 147 - 159 of the upcoming docket. This case will come before the Planning and Zoning Commission on August 8 at 1 pm at the Fort Worth City Council Chambers, 2nd Floor – City Hall, 200 Texas St., Fort Worth, Texas 76102
If you cannot attend this meeting, but wish to have your opinion on this development heard by the Planning and Zoning Commission, you may email your comments to zoninglanduse@fortworthtexas.gov . Be sure to include the case number, ZC-18-137, in the subject line. Comments must be received before Monday, August 6, 5pm.

CLEAR FORK BRIDGE UPDATE
Staff of the City of Fort Worth and the City of Benbrook have drafted an inter-local agreement to define the parameters of a bridge to provide access to emergency vehicles crossing the Clear Fork Trinity River just north of the I820 overpass. The parameters include requirements that the bridge have a single lane, be gated at each entrance, and be kept closed and locked except when in use by emergency vehicles. It limits Benbrook’s ability to construct additional structures in the TXDOT right of way and includes a means of revocation if there is unpermitted access.
Of course, the preference is that no bridge would be built. However, there is nothing to prevent the City of Benbrook from constructing a bridge within its jurisdiction. To address the concerns of adjacent neighborhoods in both Benbrook and Fort Worth, the city governments have worked to develop an agreement that allows emergency vehicles access to the northeast section of Benbrook while protecting neighborhoods from increased traffic.
Representatives of Bellaire Park North and Meadows West have had numerous meetings with Fort Worth District 3 City Council Representative, Brian Byrd, and Fort Worth Assistant City Manager, Jay Chapa, on this issue.
This agreement is scheduled to be considered by the Benbrook City Council on Thursday, April 5 and the Fort Worth City Council on Tuesday, May 1. If you would like to voice your opinion at these meeting you may do so in accordance with their respective procedures. Fort Worth Procedures
