Request
A request for an 83 foot variance from the 136 foot distance requirement, as described in Section 35-345(k)(1), to allow a new development to be 53 feet from an adjacent condominium property.

Executive Summary
The subject property is located southeast of the intersection of La Cantera Parkway and Worth Parkway, within The Rim development. The current owner of the property is proposing to build two hotels on the subject property, up to five stories in height (76 feet). The required setbacks within the Master Planned Community District (MPCD) are determined based upon the height of the proposed development in relation to its distance from single-family uses, which in the definition of single-family uses in the MPCD, include condominiums. The property would be allowed three stories totaling 40 feet in height without a variance. The adjacent single-family use is not a traditional, detached neighborhood, but rather a five story condominium building called The Ricchi. The applicant is seeking a variance to allow the hotels to be as near as 53 feet from the shared property line. If approved, the building to building distance will be approximately 160 feet.
