Executive Summary

The subject property is located near the corner of Clear Lake Drive and Scarsdale Street. The applicant is seeking to build a single-family home on an existing foundation with a side setback of 1" from the abutting west property. In 1972, the property was platted as a Planned Unit Development but in 1979 a vacating plat removed any language of a Planned Unit Development or zero lot line development. Deed restrictions were found that mention zero lot line development and homes to be built as "Patio Homes" also allowing a 4.5' easement for overhangs on neighboring lots. Most of the neighborhood homes were built in 1980/1981 with zero lot lines, however not with any shared walls as a townhome style development. The abutting structure has an 8'10" side setback on the side of the requested variance.
