SUBJECT: PROPOSED COUNCIL-INITIATED ZONING CHANGES FOR
CERTAIN PROPERTIES LOCATED IN THE JOHN T. WHITE
AREA IN COUNCIL DISTRICT 5
The September 10th City Council agenda will contain a resolution to initiate the rezoning
process for approximately 465 properties in the John T. White area in the Eastside sector of
Fort Worth. The purpose of the proposed zoning changes is to rezone developed property
and vacant land to reflect existing land uses and desired lower density land uses, consistent
with the Comprehensive Plan and the character of the area. The zoning changes will help to
reduce future infrastructure demands, given the FEMA floodplain and local floodplain in this
area. For your reference, the attached PowerPoint presentation shows the current zoning,
the proposed zoning, and the Comprehensive Plan future land use.
Councilmember Bivens held a meeting for affected property owners on August 15, 2019.
Four property owners have expressed opposition to date. Public hearings for the rezoning
of these properties would be held by the Zoning Commission on October 9, 2019, and by
the City Council on November 12, 2019.
If you have any questions, please contact Arty Wheaton-Rodriguez, Zoning Manager, at
817-392-6226.
