Summary:

ORDINANCE establishing the east side, between Cavalcade and Mathis Streets, and the west side, between Idylwild and Mathis Streets, of the 1200-1300 blocks of Northwood Street, within the City of Houston, Texas, as a special minimum lot size block pursuant to Chapter 42 of the Code of Ordinances, Houston, Texas - DISTRICT H - CISNEROS

Background:

In accordance with Section 42-197 of the Code of Ordinances, the property owner of Lots 13 and 14, Block 6, of the Lizzieton Terrace Subdivision initiated an application for the designation of a Special Minimum Lot Size Block (SMLSB). The application includes written evidence of support from the owners of 53% of the block. The Planning and Development Department mailed notifications to 21 property owners indicating that the SMLSB application had been submitted. The notification further stated that written protest must be filed with the Planning and Development Department within thirty days of mailing. In accordance with the Code, since no protest was filed, no action was required by the Houston Planning Commission in order to submit the application to City Council.

The Planning and Development Department recommends that City Council adopt an ordinance establishing a Special Minimum Lot Size of 3,150 square feet for the 1200-1300 block of Northwood Street, east side between Cavalcade Street and Mathis Street, and west side between Idylwild Street and Mathis Street.
