In accordance with Section 42-197 of the Code of Ordinances, the property owner of 2045 Southgate Boulevard, Tracts 6 and 7A, Block 23, of the Southgate Section 2 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 twenty-eight (28) 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. Two written protests were filed. The Houston Planning Commission considered the protested application on August 2, 2018 and voted to recommend that the City Council establish the SMLSB.

The Planning and Development Department recommends that City Council adopt an ordinance establishing a Special Minimum Lot Size of 7,475 square feet for the 2000 block of Southgate Boulevard, north and south sides.
