Request
A request for 1) a variance from the Mahncke Park Neighborhood Conservation design requirement the requires a garage to be located behind the principal structure to allow a 2-car garage located on the front fa?ade of the structures and 2) a variance from the Mahncke Park Neighborhood Conservation District design requirements that allow only one curb cut per property to allow for two curb cuts.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located at 427 Natalen Avenue, approximately 500 feet west of North New Braunfels Avenue. The applicant is seeking two variances. The first request is to permit a garage along the front fa?ade of the structures and the second request seeks to allow two curb cuts when the Neighborhood Conservation District limits a property to one.
During field visits, staff noted the presence of other properties with multiple curb cuts. During our research, it was determined that these existed prior to the adoption of the Mahncke Park NCD, which was adopted by City Council in January 2008.
The Neighborhood Conservation District was created in 2008 to address neighborhood stability through compatible infill construction and rehabilitation and conserve architectural features commonly found within this unique neighborhood. Much of this part of the neighborhood, especially the portion were the subject property is located among multiple multi-family dwellings that have parking in the back of the structures.
