ORDINANCE establishing the north and south sides of the 800 block of Woodland Street, between Julian Street and Watson Street, 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 H - CISNEROS

In accordance with Section 42-197 of the Code of Ordinances, the property owner of 815 Woodland Street, Lot 11 and tract 10, Block 40, of the Woodland Heights 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 70% of the block.

The Planning and Development Department mailed notifications to eleven (11) 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 and no action was required by the Houston Planning Commission, the application was submitted directly to City Council for consideration.

The Planning and Development Department recommends that City Council adopt an ordinance establishing a Special Minimum Lot Size of 6,200 square feet for 800 block of Woodland Street, north and south sides, between Julian and Watson Streets.
