TExns 77572 <br />Mr. Mike Stone <br />3414 Dalmation Lane <br />Deer Park, TX 77536 <br />Re: Special Exception Request #SE93-001 <br />Dear Mr. Stone, <br />CER7~TED MAIL #380 717 951 <br />The La Porte Zoning Board of Adjustment, at its February 25, 1993 meeting, considered <br />. Special Exception Request #SE93-001. The purpose of this request was to allow installation <br />of eleven prefabricated storage units at the existing miniwarehouse facility located at 507 <br />East Main Street. This property is further described as Lots 2-21 of Block 185; Town of <br />La Porte. Given the General Commercial Zoning of the tract in question, installation of <br />additional storage units would constitute expansion of a nonconforming use. This expansion, <br />if approved, would greatly decrease the likelihood that the property would ever revert to a <br />conforming use. The expansion would also, based on conflict with the intent of the City's <br />- Zoning Ordinance and Comprehensive Plan, have an adverse impact on the value and use <br />of adjacent or neighboring properties. <br />Based on these considerations, the LaPorte Zoning Board of Adjustment has denied Special <br />Exception Request SE93-001. The Board has, however, made note of the azgument that the <br />current General Commercial Zoning does not represent the highest and best use for <br />property in this area. <br />The Zoning Board of Adjustment, as part of the motion to deny this request has also <br />requested that the La Porte Planning and Zoning Commission consider this matter. The <br />Board requests the Planning and Zoning Commission to exercise the intent of the <br />Comprehensive Plan as it applies to the area east of "Five Points" which is currently zoned <br />General Commercial. The Board also requests that the Commission, should it find present <br />zoning designations to be inappropriate, consider a rezoning of all or part of the azea in <br />question. <br />• <br />
