ORDINANCE Repealing Ordinance No. 2015-67 establishing the east and west sides of the 8500-8600, block of Easter Street, between Ellington Street and Ferguson Way, 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 B - JACKSON

In accordance with Section 42-170 of the Code of Ordinances, the property owner of TR 1 BLK 15 of the Harvest Heights Annexation Section 1 subdivision, initiated an application to rescind the Special Minimum Lot Size Block (SMLSB) Ordinance 2015-67 that has been in effect since January 28, 2015.

The application includes written evidence of support from the owners of 69% of the block. The Planning and Development Department mailed notifications to thirty-four (34) property owners indicating that the SMLSB application had been submitted. The notification further stated that a 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 to rescind a Special Minimum Lot Size of 7,839 square feet for the 8500-8600 block of Easter Street, east and west sides.
