Agenda Item#: 39.


 
                               
Summary:

ORDINANCE renewing the establishment of the north and south sides of the 900-1100 Blocks of W. Gardner Street, between Studewood and Julian Streets within the City of Houston, Texas, as a Special Minimum Lot Size Block pursuant to the Code of Ordinances, Houston, Texas - DISTRICT H - CASTILLO

Background:

In accordance with Section 42-197 of the Code of Ordinances, the property owner of 1014 W. Gardner Street, Lot 4, Block 120 in the North Norhill subdivision, initiated an application to renew a Special Minimum Lot Size Block (SMLSB).

 

The Planning and Development Department mailed notifications to sixty-one (61) property owners indicating that the SMLSB renewal 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 to submit the application to the City Council.

The neighborhood and lot size have remained essentially the same since the original ordinance (2004-0165) was passed in 2004.

The Planning and Development Department recommends that the City Council adopt an ordinance renewing a Special Minimum Lot Size of 5,000 square feet for the 900-1100 blocks of W. Gardner Street, north and south sides, between Studewood and Julian Streets.
