Summary:

ORDINANCE establishing the 700 Block of E. 12th 1/2 Street, south side, between Beverly Street and Studewood Street, within the City of Houston, Texas, as a Special Minimum Building Line Size Block pursuant to Chapter 42 of the Code of Ordinances Houston, Texas - DISTRICT C - KAMIN

Background:
In accordance with Section 42-170 of the Code of Ordinances, the property owner of 700 East 12th ½ Street, Lot 1, Block 33, in the Studes Sec 2 subdivision has 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 75% of the block. The Planning and Development Department mailed notifications to all 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 to submit the application to the City Council.

The Planning and Development Department recommends the City Council adopt an ordinance establishing a Special Minimum Building Line of 17 feet for the 700 block of East 12th ½ Street, southside, between Beverly and Studewood Streets.
