Request
A request for a 1) a 14 foot variance from the 30 foot platted front setback, as described in Section 35-516 (o) and 2) a 3 foot variance from the 5 foot side setback, as described in Table 35-310, to allow a carport 16 feet from the front property line and 2 feet from the side.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located in the Lackland Terrace Subdivision just north of US Highway 90. This subdivision of several hundred lots was recorded in the 1960's and included a wide 30 foot platted front setback. A property owner, either the current one or a previous one, converted the garage into living space. Very recently, a carport was built without permits and encroaches into the platted front setback. In addition, the posts and eave-overhang encroach slightly into the minimum 5 foot side setback. Two variances are required to permit the carport as constructed. Nevertheless, the current carport exceeds the minimum front zoning setback of ten feet and has enough distance from the side property line to allow maintenance without trespass and not threaten fire spread. Some fire rated construction methods may be required during permitting, depending on the exact location.
