Executive Summary
The subject property is located in the Mahncke Park Place Subdivision, recorded in 1923. It measures 50 feet wide by 150 feet deep. According to Bexar County Appraisal District, the home was originally built in 1947 and included approximately 1,659 square feet. The Mahncke Park Neighborhood Conservation District (NCD-6) design standards apply to new construction projects and to improvements or renovations to existing structures where the work requires a building permit and is specifically governed by the NCD design standards. Under the NCD-6 design requirements, Section 2.1.2., the front setback shall be within five feet (5'-0") of the median setback of developed lots for the block face. The median setback for this blockface is 27 feet, and with a five foot allowance, the applicant can be as close as 22 feet from the front property line. The applicant wishes to construct a larger porch to the front of the home that encroaches no more than three feet (3'0") into the 22 foot setback allowance. The new porch will measure no more than 200 square feet and be 19 feet from the front property line.
