"R-6 AHOD" Residential Single-Family Airport Hazard Overlay District
Case Manager:
Logan Sparrow, Principal Planner
Request
A request for a five foot variance from the ten foot front setback, as described in Section 35-310.01, to allow a carport to be built five feet from the front property line.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located at the southeast corner of the Highland Mist Lane and County Cork Road intersection. The carport is proposed to be 23 feet deep by 22 feet wide. The applicant has applied for a variance to allow the project to proceed as planned. The proposed carport is to be placed near the center of the lot and, as such, the carport more than complies with the required five foot side setback. The subject property is located within a subdivision annexed by the City on December 31, 1992 and was developed in 1993, per BCAD records. There are several homes in the community that have carports located within the front ten feet; it is possible that some were built before annexation, or had development underway during the annexation procedures, whereupon the ten foot setback would not have been retroactively applied.
