In accordance with Section 42-197 of the Code of Ordinances, the property owner of 4403 Edison Street, Lot 13, Block 68, in the Irvington 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 59% of the block.

 

The Planning and Development Department mailed notifications to twenty (20) 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. One written protest was filed. The Houston Planning Commission considered the protested application on April 4, 2024, and voted to recommend that the City Council establish the SMLSB.
