Item No. 7
NAME:
Lot 1 - Geneva Addition -
Building Line Waiver
LOCATION: South Side of 65th - One (1)
block west of Geyer Springs
APPLICANT: Joe D. White
Edward Smith and Associates
401 Victory
Little Rock, AR
OWNER: T.A. Brundage
700 E. Hildebrand
San Antonio, Texas 78212
REQUEST:
For the encroachment of a sign into a 70' area established
by a platted building line.
STAFF REPORT
The site is located off 65th Street in what is mainly a
commercial area. It is bordered immediately to the west by
the Mopac Railroad. The only use apparent on the property
is a mini -warehouse business. The applicant is requesting a
variance in the front setback line to allow the encroachment
of a proposed sign 10' by 40' and 45' high. Staff does not
feel that the applicant has offered justification enough for
a variance from the requirements; however, we are willing to
allow a reduction of setbacks on the west side from 30' to
151, and on 65th Street from 70' to 501.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Denial as filed.
SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE ACTION:
The applicant did not agree with Staff's recommendation. It
was suggested by the Committee that he present justifications for
the waiver to the Commission at the Public Hearing. This
was passed to the Commission without recommendation.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION:
Mr. Joe White, the applicant, submitted a revised plan in
which the encroachment was reduced to 51; thereby changing
the request from a 25' setback to a 45' setback. Since this
