Summary:

ORDINANCE establishing the east side of the 200 block of Clifton 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 209 Clifton Street, Lot 9, Block 17, of the Fullerton Place 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 17% of the block. The Planning and Development Department mailed notifications to twenty-five (25) 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. No protest was filed. This application had less than 51% support and was referred to the Houston Planning Commission for review and consideration. The Houston Planning Commission considered the application on July 5, 2018 and voted to recommend that the City Council establish the SMLSB with a modified boundary with evidence of support from the owners of 48% of the block.

The Planning and Development Department recommends that City Council adopt an ordinance establishing a Special Minimum Lot Size of 6,250 square feet for the 200 block of Clifton Street, east side.
