Board of Adjustment | July 15, 2026

The City of Fort Worth Board of Adjustment held a meeting on July 15, 2026, to consider multiple variance and special exception requests related to residential and commercial property developments. Key procurement-related discussions included approvals and denials of variances for accessory structures, parking locations, lot coverage, and setbacks for various residential projects such as duplexes and single-family homes. Notable cases involved requests to exceed accessory structure size limits, reduce setback requirements, and allow electronic changeable copy signs for commercial properties. The board approved several variances, including those for duplex parking and lot coverage, and denied others, often citing lack of demonstrated hardship or non-compliance with zoning codes. Some cases were continued to allow applicants to work with city staff on alternative solutions or to address outstanding issues. The board also discussed potential zoning code amendments to better accommodate redevelopment in established neighborhoods. Throughout the meeting, motions were passed by roll call votes, and applicants were advised to coordinate with city staff for next steps and permitting requirements.
