Request
A request for 1) a 4' variance from the required 5' rear setback, as described in Section 35-370, to allow a detached garage to be 1' away from the rear property line and 2) a 2' variance from the 5' side setback requirement, also described in Section 35-370, to allow a detached garage to be 3' from the side property line.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located at 407 Cedar Street, 132' south of Stieren Street. The applicant requests two variances to allow the reconstruction of a garage that is currently dilapidated and unusable. The new garage will be in the same footprint as the current one. Bexar County Appraisal lists the detached garage as constructed in 1975.
As the property is located within the King William Historic District, the applicant did successfully apply for a Certificate of Appropriateness with the Historic Design Review Commission. HDRC approved the request. The applicant's property is located within a district known for rear property detached garages and rehabilitated primary and accessory structures. The applicant intends to follow all HDRC stipulations during the reconstruction of the detached garage.
