Request
A request for a 4.5 foot variance from the minimum 5 foot side setback, as described in Table 35-310, to allow a carport 6 inches from the side property line.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located in the Roosevelt Park area between S. Presa and the IH-37 South. While many of the homes in this area are historic, the area is not within the boundaries of a historic district. According to the Code Enforcement notes on this case, the carport framing has been there for a long time, but the owner recently installed corrugated plastic sheeting to provide privacy. This plastic, framed with wood is a fire hazard and will not be permitted to remain, regardless of the Board's decision regarding the requested side setback variance.
In 2013, the applicant secured a permit to construct a detached garage in the rear yard, but the permit was never finalized.
