PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
MEMORANDUM
FROM: Planning & Zoning Department DATE: October 2, 2025
SUBJECT: PLAT25-0094 Consideration of a request from DFW Home Solutions
LLC for a replat of Lot 3R, Block 3, J.L. Autrey Addition, being 0.103
acres located at 4032 Rita Beth Street.
PRESENTER: Clayton Husband, Principal Planner
SUMMARY:
DFW Home Solutions LLC is requesting approval of a replat of Lot 3R, Block 3, J.L. Autrey
Addition. This 0.103-acre property is located at 4032 Rita Beth Street.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
The property under consideration is a 4,500-square-foot site located on the east side of
Rita Beth Street south of Glenview Drive. The site is developed with a single-family
residence. The proposed replat is intended to create one single-family residential lot for
the purpose of obtaining permits for the renovation and addition to the existing residence.
The property is uplatted and zoned R-3 (Single-Family Residential). According to
available records, the property has been in its current configuration since at least 1951
when the house was constructed. The property is a nonconforming parcel of record but
does not meet the minimum lot area, lot width, and lot depth standards for the R-3 (Single-
Family Residential) district.
Due to these existing conditions, the applicant is requesting a waiver of the lot area, width,
and depth standards for the proposed lot. Section 110-42 of the subdivision regulations
allows for the Planning and Zoning Commission to consider and approve modifications,
waivers, and exceptions to the regulations where hardships or practical difficulties may
result from strict compliance with the regulations. A comparison of the existing standard
and the proposed lot is below.
yip i ��i 1011111111mil
Lot Lot size: 7,500 SF 4,500 sq ft
Lot width: 65 feet 50 ft
Lot depth: 100 feet 90 ft
Front building
..line:
.....20,.feet.................................................................20,.ft,.....
NORTH I* I HLAND HILLS
The proposed lot is considered a legal nonconforming lot. The lot may be used for a valid
use, building, or structure permitted in the R-3 (Single-Family Residential) zoning district
provided the requirements for building setbacks, side and rear yards, height, parking,
landscaping, and other applicable standards of the district are satisfied.
VISION2023 LAND USE PLAN: This area is designated on the Land Use Plan as Low
Density Residential. This designation promotes quality neighborhoods of conventional
suburban single-family detached homes. General characteristics of these neighborhoods
include a density of two to six dwelling units per acre and houses of one- and two-stories.
CURRENT ZONING: The property is zoned R-3 (Single-Family Residential). The R-3
district is intended to be a transitional zone between developments of lower and higher
densities or between lower density residential and nonresidential areas and to provide
areas for moderate density development of single-family detached dwelling units
constructed at an approximate density of 4.8 units per acre.
TRANSPORTATION PLAN: The development has frontage on the following streets.
Right-of-way dedication is not required for this plat.

PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
MEMORANDUM
FROM: Planning & Zoning Department DATE: October 2, 2025
SUBJECT: ZC25-0144 Public hearing and consideration of a request from
James Stewart for a zoning change from AG (Agricultural) to RE-1
(Residential Estate) at 8912 Eden Road, being 2.001 acres
described as Tracts 1 F and 1 K, Oziah Rumfield Survey, Abstract
1365.
PRESENTER: Clayton Husband, Principal Planner
SUMMARY:
James Stewart is requesting a zoning change from AG (Agricultural) to RE-1 (Residential
Estate) on 2.001 acres located at 8912 Eden Road.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
The property under consideration is 87,151
square feet in size and consists of two tracts Y RUMF,Em
of land located east of Eden Road and south
of Rumfield Road. The site is developed with
a single-family residence constructed in
1965. The property does not have frontage
on Eden Road but has access to the road by an ingress and egress easement. The s Y6
applicant is requesting a zoning change to °M°M
RE-1 (Residential Estate) with the intent to
plat the property for the construction of an accessory building.
The character of the area is low-density single-family residential. Most properties along
Eden Road are zoned AG (Agricultural), with the Flamingo Estates development to the
east and south zoned R-2 (Single-Family Residential) and PD (Planned Development).
The site is in an area designated on the Vision203O Land Use Plan as Low Density
Residential.
While the AG (Agricultural) district is primarily intended to protect land suited for
agricultural uses from incompatible uses, it is also a holding zone intended to preserve
land suited for eventual development into other uses. The district was also assigned to
properties when they were annexed into the city limits in the past, as required by g�!!. n..
J...1„ ,- 0,of the zoning ordinance. This allowed for zoning changes to be considered at a
time when reasonable development of a site was suitable based on long-range plans,
availability of public services, and market conditions.
NORTH KI HLAND HILLS
In reference to platting property zoned AG (Agricultural) , f�j,iipn.....1...1„ „- ,94(2.),of the zoning
ordinance does not permit property zoned AG to be subdivided or developed for any
purpose other than agricultural use without an approved zoning change. In order for the
applicant to plat the property, it must be rezoned to an appropriate residential zoning
district. The property owner intends to submit a one-lot plat for the property.
VISION2030 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: This area is designated on the Vision203O Land
Use Plan as Low Density Residential. This designation promotes quality neighborhoods
of conventional suburban single-family detached homes. General characteristics of these
neighborhoods include a density of two to six dwelling units per acre and houses of one-
and two-stories.
CURRENT ZONING: The property is currently zoned (AG Agricultural). The AG district is
intended to preserve lands best suited for agricultural use from encroachment of
incompatible uses, and to preserve in agricultural use, land suited to eventual
development into other uses pending proper timing for practical economical provisions of
utilities, major streets, schools, and other facilities so that reasonable development will
occur.
PROPOSED ZONING: The proposed zoning is RE-1 (Residential Estate). This district
was formerly named R-1-S (Special Single-Family) and is intended to provide areas for
very low density development of single-family detached dwelling units which are
constructed at an approximate density of one unit per acre in a quasi-rural setting. The
RE-1 district is specifically planned to allow for the keeping of livestock in a residential
setting.
SURROUNDING ZONING ( LAND USE:
NORTH AG(Agricultural) Low-Density Residential Single-family residences
WEST AG(Agricultural) Low-Density Residential Single-family residences
AG(Agricultural)
SOUTH Low-Density Residential Single-family residences
PD (Planned Development)
EAST R-2 (Single-Family Low-Density Residential Single-family residences
Residential)
PLAT STATUS: The property is unplatted. Approval of a plat would be required prior to
any construction.
CITY COUNCIL: The City Council will consider this request at the October 27, 2025,
meeting following a recommendation by the Planning and Zoning Commission.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve ZC25-0144.

PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
MEMORANDUM
FROM: Planning & Zoning Department DATE: October 2, 2025
SUBJECT: ZC25-0145 Public hearing and consideration of a request from
Santos Catalan for a zoning change from AG (Agricultural) to R-2
(Single-Family Residential) at 8459 Shady Grove Road, being 1.319
acres described as Tract 13A4, Thomas Peck Survey, Abstract
1209.
PRESENTER: Clayton Husband, Principal Planner
SUMMARY:
On behalf of RAA Real Estate Investing LLC (owner), Santos Catalan is requesting a
zoning change from AG (Agricultural) to R-2 (Single-Family Residential) on 1.319 acres
located at 8459 Shady Grove Road.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
The property under consideration is a 1.319- o
acre tract located on the east side of Shady
Grove Road, with access to Fresh Meadows _
1'luulh f4u,lil irivf 14dP, .
Road. The site is developed with a single- = "°°8000M
CPSTEE CRFEN ""'
family residence and swimming pool, which
are in a state of disrepair. The applicant is E-
requesting a zoning change to R-2 (Single-
Family Residential)with the intent to plat the 5"tt°V GROM[__
property for the construction of a new AS"`EV °4y
residence.
The character of the area is low-density single-family residential with adjacent commercial
development. Most properties are zoned R-2 (Single-Family Residential) with a mix of lot
sizes. Office, service, and restaurant uses are located south of the property between
Shady Grove Road and North Tarrant Parkway. The site is in an area designated on the
Vision203O Land Use Plan as Low Density Residential.
While the AG (Agricultural) district is primarily intended to protect land suited for
agricultural uses from incompatible uses, it is also a holding zone intended to preserve
land suited for eventual development into other uses. The district was also assigned to
properties when they were annexed into the city limits in the past, as required by g�!!. n..
J...1„ ,- 0,of the zoning ordinance. This allowed for zoning changes to be considered at a
time when reasonable development of a site was suitable based on long-range plans,
availability of public services, and market conditions.
NORTH KI HLAND HILLS
In reference to platting property zoned AG (Agricultural) , f�j,iipn.....1...1„ „- ,94(2.),of the zoning
ordinance does not permit property zoned AG to be subdivided or developed for any
purpose other than agricultural use without an approved zoning change. In order for the
applicant to plat the property, it must be rezoned to an appropriate residential zoning
district. The property owner has submitted a one-lot plat for the property, and it is in review
by the Development Review Committee.
VISION2030 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: This area is designated on the Vision203O Land
Use Plan as Low Density Residential. This designation promotes quality neighborhoods
of conventional suburban single-family detached homes. General characteristics of these
neighborhoods include a density of two to six dwelling units per acre and houses of one-
and two-stories.
CURRENT ZONING: The property is currently zoned (AG Agricultural). The AG district is
intended to preserve lands best suited for agricultural use from encroachment of
incompatible uses, and to preserve in agricultural use, land suited to eventual
development into other uses pending proper timing for practical economical provisions of
utilities, major streets, schools, and other facilities so that reasonable development will
occur.
PROPOSED ZONING: The proposed zoning is R-2 (Single-Family Residential). This
district is intended to provide areas for low density development of single-family detached
dwelling units which are constructed at an approximate density of 4.0 units per acre.
SURROUNDING ZONING ( LAND USE:
NORTH R-2 (Single-Family Low-Density Residential Single-family residences
Residential)
WEST R-2 (Single-Family Low-Density Residential Single-family residences
Residential)
SOUTH R-2 (Single-Family Low-Density Residential Single-family residences
Residential)
EAST R-2 (Single-Family Low-Density Residential Single-family residences
Residential)
PLAT STATUS: The property is unplatted, however a plat application is under review by
the Development Review Committee (DRC) for one residential lot. Pending zoning
approval, the DRC will be able to approve and file the plat.
CITY COUNCIL: The City Council will consider this request at the October 27, 2025,
meeting following a recommendation by the Planning and Zoning Commission.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve ZC25-0145.

PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
MEMORANDUM
FROM: Planning & Zoning Department DATE: October 2, 2025
SUBJECT: TR25-06 Public hearing and consideration regarding city-initiated
text amendments to Chapter 118 (Zoning) Division 15 (Transit
Oriented Development Code) for the purpose of considering the
addition of short term rental housing and additional regulations.
PRESENTER: Cori Reaume, Director of Planning
SUMMARY:
The purpose of this pubic hearing is to consider the addition of short-term rentals into the
TOD table of uses, identifying where in the TOD Character Zones a short-term rental
should be permitted.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
On September 4, the Planning & Zoning Commission conducted a public hearing to
consider the addition of short-term rentals into the table of permitted uses, and provided
a recommendation to the City Council. The TOD Division of the zoning ordinance has a
separate ScheduleofPerm.iIted.0 b� Character Zone which was not included in the
original public notice and public hearing.
Following a September 8t" discussion with the City Council, staff advertised for this
additional public hearing with intent to consider whether the TOD Zones (or some portion
thereof) may be appropriate for development and/or operation of short-term rentals.
An amendment to Chapter 18, Article XI — Rental Housing, will be considered along with
the proposed zoning amendments by the City Council on October 13t". These regulations
include an annual permitting process, maximum occupancy, requirement for a local point
of contact, parking restrictions, and a process to revoke a permit for continual violations.
Proposal
The graphic below represents the proposal that came forward in the previous public
hearing. Short-term rentals would be permitted in the following districts: R7-MF, C-17 C-
2, Town Center Neighborhood Core, and Town Center Neighborhood Center.

The Commission recommended on September 4th to amend the above table to remove
Town Center — Neighborhood Center from the permitted districts. That recommendation
was relayed to the City Council on September 8th. At that time, the City Council continued
the public hearing to October 13th to allow time for consideration of all public comment
received during the public hearing process.
The continuance also provided an opportunity for this TOD portion to "catch-up" with the
other, so that final action may be considered on the same date.
After review and consideration of the Regulating Plans and the associated character
zones within the TOD areas, and considering the public input received to date, staff
propose the addition of short-term rentals to be permitted by right in all TOD Character
Zones, with the exception of the Historic TOD, where they could be permitted along with
approval in a Special Development Plan.

Section 118-633 Proposed Language
Section 118-633 — "Legend for section 118-631; special land use regulations" of Chapter
118 of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance and the Code of Ordinances,
City of North Richland Hills, Texas, be amended by adding a new
subsection (31) to set forth special land use regulations for short term
rentals to read as follows:
"(31) Short term rentals must comply with the following standards:
a. General criteria. All short-term rental uses must comply with the
requirements and regulations set forth in Article XII, Chapter 18 of this
code.
b. Multifamily short-term rentals. Short-tern rental use in a multi-family
residential building is limited to no more than five percent (5%) of the
total units in the complex or one (1) unit, whichever is more.
c. Commercial short-term rentals. Short-term rental use in the C-1 and C-
2 districts are limited to single-family homes in legal nonconforming
status which are in existence as of October 13, 2025.
d. Special Exception. When a short-term rental use would exceed the
density limitation of subsection (b), an applicant may apply to the
zoning board of adjustment for a special exception in accordance with
Division 2, Article II, Chapter 118 of this code. The board may consider
factors such as the following:
1. Whether operation as a short-term rental in excess of the density
limitation will adversely impact the neighborhood in which the
property is located, including whether it will negatively impact the
residential nature of the neighborhood;
2. Whether such operation is likely to disrupt adjacent residents'
right to the quiet enjoyment of their property (for example, is noise
likely to affect neighboring residents);
3. Whether such operation will substantially impact nearby streets
or traffic, including whether the property has limited parking; and
4. Whether other short-term rentals in excess of the density limitation
are already operating in that multi-family residential building.
e. Continuance of Operation. For properties located in zoning districts
where short-term rental uses are not permitted by right, the operator
of a property used as a short-term rental prior to October 13, 2025,
that is able to come into compliance with the requirements of Article
XII, Chapter 18 of this code, including obtaining a permit, paying or
entering into an approved payment arrangement for all hotel
occupancy taxes owed for the property, on or before January 31, 2026,
may continue to operate so long as the operator maintains compliance
with all the requirements of Article XII, Chapter 18 of this code.
f. Discontinuance of Operations.
1. The operator of a property used as a short-term rental who is
unable, fails, or refuses to timely obtain a permit for operation as
a short-term rental pursuant to subsection d., shall discontinue the
short-term rental use on or before January 31, 2026, or thirty (30)
days from the notice of permit denial, whichever is later.
2. All short-term rental uses located in zoning districts where short-
term rentals uses are not permitted by right and issued a permit
under Article XI1, Chapter 18 of this code shall discontinue the
short-term rental use within thirty (30) days after the revocation or
denial of the renewal of the short-term rental permit. A short-term
rental use that is discontinued under this subsection shall not be
resumed.
3. All short-term rental uses located in zoning districts where short-
term rental uses are not permitted by right shall be subject to the
abandonment provisions contained in Section 118-153(i) of this
code. A short-term rental use abandoned under this subsection
shall immediately discontinue the short-term rental use upon the
effective date of the abandonment. A short-term rental use that is
abandoned under this subsection shall not be resumed."
