P. Harris Survey, <br />La Porte, Harris County, Texas. This property is further described as being <br />located in the 800 Block of McCabe Road. <br /> <br />Planned Unit Development (P.U.D.) <br /> <br />Consulting Inspection Services <br /> <br />The subject property is located to the southeast portion of the City of La <br />Porte. The site is a 5.89-acre tract that fronts along south of McCabe Road <br />between SH 146 and Broadway (Old Highway 146). The property is in <br />rectangular shape with approximately 480' frontage and 531' depth. There is <br />a 50' wide Harris County Flood Control District drainage easement to the <br />west of the tract identified as "West Branch Taylor Bayou". <br /> <br />Several years ago, the previous owner received a Special Conditional Use <br />Permit (SCUP) for the purpose of developing a single-family residence and <br />an oversized garage (accessory building) of approximately 6,000 square feet <br />to house cars and motorcycle collections. The Zoning Board of Adjustment <br />granted a variance to construct oversized garage in excess of 2,000 square <br />feet allowed by the ordinances for large lots. <br /> <br />The subject property is now sold and has been transferred to the current <br />owner. The present owner wants to utilize an existing accessory building for <br />inspection service purposes while living in the house located at the same <br />address. The applicant will provide consulting services to area industries <br />assisted by family members or a part time co-worker. <br /> <br />Harris County Appraisal District records show that house and an accessory <br />building were built in 2005. An existing accessory building is located at least <br />thirty-feet (30') from any property line and thirty-feet (30') behind the rear <br />of the primary structure in compliance with Section 106-741 of the Code of <br />Ordinances. <br />
