ORDINANCE establishing the east and west sides of the 1300 block of Caywood Lane within the City of Houston as a special minimum building line block pursuant to Chapter 42 of the Code of Ordinances, Houston, Texas; making findings and containing other provisions related thereto; and declaring an emergency.

In accordance with Section 42-170 of the Code of Ordinances, the property owner of Lot 2, Block 6, of the Shadyvilla Annex Subdivision, Section 2 initiated an application for the designation of a Special Minimum Building Line Block (SMBLB). The application includes written evidence of support from owners of 57% of the area. Notification was mailed to 14 property owners indicating that the SMBLB 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 25 feet for the 1300 block of Caywood Lane, east and west sides.
