BACKGROUND:
Alexis Gup is requesting a Variance to reduce the required rear setback along Bayou Texar from 30 FT to 18.1 FT to accommodate a porch addition.
This project is unique in that the porch addition encroaches onto the adjoining property. Ms. Gup owns the adjacent parcel to the north, identified as 3430 N 18TH Avenue. Initially Ms. Gup was advised by staff to combine both parcels. However, after further discussions with senior-level staff, a solution was reached which would allow Ms. Gup to provide a recorded easement which allows for the encroachment across her common property lines. This documentation is provided.
