Background:
Approval of an ordinance designating the 1600 block of Fairview Street, south side, between Yupon and Windsor Streets as a Special Minimum Lot Size Block, pursuant to Chapter 42 of the Code of Ordinances.

In accordance with Section 42-197 of the Code of Ordinances, the property owner of Lot 10, Block 6, of the Cherryhurst Subdivision initiated an application for the designation of a special minimum lot size block.  The application includes written evidence of support from the owners of 64% of the area.  Notification was mailed to the six (6) property owners indicating that the special minimum lot size block application had been made.  The notification further stated that written protest could be filed with the Planning and Development Department within thirty days of mailing.  Since no protests were filed, no action was required by the Houston Planning Commission.

It is recommended that the City Council adopt an ordinance establishing a Special Minimum Lot Size of 5,000 sf.
