PUBLIC HEARING BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT CASE BZA12-13, MARTIN O'CONNOR, 1331 WEST WALL STREET The next item for the Board of Zoning Adjustment to consider was BZA12-13 submitted by Martin O'Connor for property located at 1331 West Wall Street, proposed to be platted as Lots 1 & 2, Block 1, Shamrock Ventures Addition. Section 15.H., "R-7.5" Single Family District, Buffer Area Regulations requires a minimum buffer of 40-feet from the adjoining property line for all principle buildings and structures. The applicant requested variances of fifteen-feet (15') and twenty-feet (20') allowing buffer areas of finrenty (20') feet along the northern property line for the proposed Lot 1 and the western property line for the proposed Lot 2 and twenty-five (25') feet along the � northern property line for the proposed Lot 2. Mr. Stombaugh explained that Staff found special conditions existed for the requested variances. Specifically, both proposed lots met all requirements relative to width, depth and area for the "R-7.5" Single Family District. The 40 foot buffer placed a hardship on � the development of the finro (2) lots. The buffer requirement reduced the buildable width to 39 feet and eliminated 49 percent of the lot from being built upon for a principal structure for the proposed Lot 1. The buildable area of the proposed Lot 2 would be reduced by 38 percent and further be compromised by a buffer along the western and northern property lines. Mr. Stombaugh explained that the applicant requested a variance of 20 feet along the northern property line for the proposed Lot 1, and a small portion of the western property line for the proposed Lot 2, as well as 15 feet to the northern property line for the proposed Lot 2. He stated that the 40 foot buffer would be maintained to the north of the subject property so adequate buffering would be present between the newly created residential property and the remaining "PO" Professional Office District property. He went on to state that on October 16, 2012 Council approved on the first reading of an ordinance a zone change request to rezone the subject site from "PO" Professional Office District to "R-7.5" Single Family District for the development of finro (2) single family lots, and if approved by the Board the second reading of the ordinance for the subject site would be scheduled to be considered by Council at their November 20, 2012 meeting. With no questions for Mr. Stombaugh, Jim O'Connor of 1712 Avalon Drive, Colleyville, Texas, took the Oath of Truth; and requested favorable consideration of his request and � offered to answer any questions of the Board. With no questions for Mr. O'Connor and no additional speakers, Robert Rainwater made a motion to close the public hearing. George Dalton seconded the motion which prevailed by the following vote: Ayes: Cook, White, Rainwater, Dalton, DeAngelo Nays: None Absent: Holt Ken White made a motion that a special condition existed for the variances requested.
