A request for 1) a ten percent variance from the limitation that an accessory dwelling unit not exceed 40 percent the size of the primary dwelling, as described in Section 35-370(b)(1), to allow an accessory dwelling unit to be 50 percent the size of the main dwelling.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located at the southeast corner of the West Lullwood Avenue and Grant Avenue intersection. Per Bexar County tax records, both the primary dwelling and the accessory dwelling unit, originally built as a garage, were built in 1925 - 13 years prior to the adoption of the first Unified Development Code. Recently, the current owner has set about renovating both structures. The grandfathered status of the accessory dwelling unit was lost because of the substantial renovation undertaken by the current owner. Whenever investment into renovation exceeds 50 percent of the value of the building, all current development codes are applicable. The primary dwelling measures 732 square feet, and the accessory structure is 360 square feet. Per code, the accessory dwelling unit would be limited to 293 square feet. The accessory dwelling unit meets the rest of the NCD design requirements including maximum height, location, and external building materials.
