Joseph Milligan
Council District:|1010|Location:
1005 Hays Street
Legal Description:
S. 100 feet of Lot 19, Block C, NCB 1655
Zoning:
"R-5 H AHOD" Residential Single-Family Dignowity Hill Historic Airport Hazard Overlay District
Case Manager:
Margaret Pahl, AICP, Senior Planner
Request
A request for a 6 foot variance from the minimum 20 foot rear setback, as described in Table 35-310, to allow a covered deck 14 feet from the rear property line.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located in the Dignowity Hill Historic District and includes a home built in 1910. The applicant purchased the property in 2013 from Bexar County and has since pulled permits to remodel, and build an addition to the rear. The work has all been reviewed and approved by the Office of Historic Preservation, including the deck that is the subject of the requested variance. The work more than doubled the value of the property according to the Appraisal District. The 12 foot wide deck satisfies the side setbacks, but encroaches into the minimum rear setback by six feet.
