Summary:

ORDINANCE establishing the west side of the 200 block of Archer Street, between Cottage Street and Temple Street, within the City of Houston as a special minimum building line block pursuant to Chapter 42 of the Code of Ordinances, Houston, Texas - DISTRICT H - GONZALEZ

Background:

In accordance with Section 42-170 of the Code of Ordinances, the property owner of Lot 11, Block 24 of the Brooke Smith Subdivision initiated an application for the designation of a special minimum building line block. The application includes written evidence of support from owners of 67% of the area. Notification was mailed to six (6) property owners indicating that the special minimum building line block application had been submitted. The notification further stated that written protests could be filed with the Planning and Development Department within thirty days of mailing. Since no protests were filed, no action was required by the Houston Planning Commission.

  The Planning and Development Department recommends that City Council adopt an ordinance establishing a Special Minimum Building Line of 14 feet for the 200 block of Archer Street, west side.
