In accordance with Section 42-170 of the Code of Ordinances, the property owner of 1510 Ovid Street, Lot 1, Block 1, of the Truxillo Gardens Subdivision initiated an application for the designation of a Special Minimum Building Line Block (SMBLB). The application includes written evidence of support from the owners of 59% of the block. The Planning and Development Department mailed notifications to property owners of twelve (12) lots indicating that the SMBLB 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 Building Line of 10 feet for the 1500 block of Ovid Street, north and south sides.
