In accordance with Section 42-170 of the Code of Ordinances, the property owner of 609 Canadian Street, Tracts 38 and 39A, Block 23 of the Lindale Park Section 3 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 51% of the block.

The Planning and Development Department mailed notifications to thirty-seven (37) 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 Building Line of 30 feet for the 500-700 Block of Canadian Street, north and south sides.
