Request
A request for a 4' 8" variance from the minimum 5' side setback requirement, as described in Section 35-310.01, to allow an addition with 2" gutters to be 4" from side property line.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located along Bank Street and the applicant recently renovated the single-family dwelling on the property. An addition was added to the structure, which is encroaching into the minimum 5' side setback. The survey submitted shows the structure to be 4" away from the side property line. Upon the site visit, staff observed a window along the side of the structure. DSD Plan Review Staff has noted that since the structure is so close to the property line, the window should be removed and the wall should be fire rated in order to reduce the risk of a fire hazard.
Code Enforcement History
A Code Enforcement Investigation was opened on July 28, 2021 for Building Without a Permit.
Permit History
Permits have recently been pulled for the renovation of the structure.
Zoning History
The property was part of the original 36 square miles of the City of San Antonio and zoned "C" Apartment District. The zoning converted from "C" Apartment District to the "MF-33" Multi-Family District upon adoption of the 2001 Unified Development Code (Ordinance 93881, dated May 3, 2001). The property was rezoned by Ordinance 2006-12-14-1441, dated December 14, 2006 to the current "R-6 CD" Residential Single-Family District with Conditional Use for a Duplex.
