Request
A request for a 32% variance from the 50% front yard impervious cover limitation, as described in Section 35-515 (d)(1), to allow 82% of the front yard to be covered in impervious cover.
Executive Summary
The subject property is situated at the intersection of Andricks Drive and Golden Crown Drive, approximately 1,400 feet east of Goliad Road. The applicant is requesting a variance to allow the front yard to be covered in cement. During field visits, staff did not see similar concrete-covered front yards in the community.
Code Enforcement initiated a case against this property on September 14, 2017, about two months after the current owner purchased the property. The Code Officer detailed that roughly 3/4 of the front yard had been covered in concrete and made note that the property was not in compliance with the 50% maximum front yard impervious cover requirement.
