Board of Adjustment
City of Coppell
Dear Board of Adjustment,
We built our home here in Coppell on Swallow Drive in June of 1985. We are in the midst of
remodeling our home to include a 2~a floor above the garage. Due to several unfortunate tums, we
respectfully request a variance to the city code requiring 80% of new homes / remodeled homes to include
80% brick / masonry.
In early February of this year when we began our remodeling we were unaware of the 80% code.
When our Architect, Gary, Oliver of Oliver Architectural Construction Company, checked with the city in
the process of obtaining the necessary permits, he learned the requirement. Mr. Oliver reworked the plans
to include brick on the east and west walls of the addition, including bricking the west side of the garage
which was originally siding, and we received our permit. Our home faces north with an alley on the south.
Our contractor, Rich Merrill of Metro Leisure Construction, contacted a local Acme Brick
distributor and was informed they had the brick in stock. Mr. Merrill poured a concrete slab, widening our
garage and set the slab to the cowect dimensions to include brick. When the second floor was framed, it
too was built to include brick.
Mr. Merrill arranged for the bricklayers to begin work on our home on June 16. The week of June
12, Mr. Merrill contacted the acme distributor about delivery and discovered that they had sold the brick
they had in stock. Additionally, he discovered that our brick, Autumn Blend, had been discontinued
approximately 10 years ago.
Mr. Merrill contacted several other brick distributors, detailed below, searching for Autumn Blend
and found they too were sold out. Although, Acme has since produced another brick with the same name,
it does not match the original Autumn Blend.
We have searched for a brick similar enough as to not detract from our homes' appearance with no
luck. We have also considered stone, but discounted this option for several reasons, no small part of which
is no other homes in our neighborhood have stone.
There are several homes in our neighborhood with 2nd story additions that have been completed
without brick or stone.
In conclusion, we respectfully request a variance that would allow us to complete the construction
of our addition with Hardi-plank, instead of brick.
Sincerely,
Richard & Kimberly Stacey
