Staff' Report Replat for Hickham Industries August 21,1997
Requested Bv: Eric Stivender, representative for Donald E. Babb, President, Hickham
Industries, Inc.
Requested For: A 29.0543 acre tract divided by a lot line, creating two tracts, located in Lot
9, F.A. Staashen Subdivision, Enoch Brinson Survey, A-5, Harris County,
Texas.
Location: 11518 Old La Porte Road
Present Zoning: Light Industrial (L.I.)
Background: The applicant, Eric Stivender, has requested a Replat of the property in
question for the purpose of consolidating tract one and tract two of Lot 9.
The applicant is simply requesting the removal of a lot line that divides the
property into two individual developable portions of property. The applicant
seeks to have the 29.0543 acres of property under one description.
Analysis: Under the teens of Section 4.07 of Development Ordinance1444, a replat of
all or a portion of a subdivision may be released for recordation and deemed
valid and co~olling when the following conditions have been satisfied:
• The plat has been signed and acknowledged by only the owners of the
particular property that is being replatted or resubdivided.
This requirement has been satisfied.
• The replat does not attempt to alter, amend, or remove any subdivision
covenanrts or restrictions.
No subdivision covenants or restrictions are in effect.
• There is compliance with Sections 212.014 and 212.015 of the V.T.C.A.
Local Government Codes.
These are the sections of State Law dealing with platting and
replatting. These provisions have been satisfied.
• The replat has been approved by the Commission after being prepared
and filed as though it were an original plat as specified in Section 4.04 of
the Development Ordinance.
Staff finds the replat document does comply with all applicable
ordinance requirements.

Planning & Zoning Mtg. 8/21/97
Page 2 of 2
• All expenses incurred by the City or the subdivider in the replat process
shall be borne by the subdivider, including the cost for notice of public
hearing.
The costs of public hearing have been tabulated and will be paid by
the applicants prior to the replat being released for recordation. The
cost of notice for this hearing totals $43.08.
Conclusion: Staff finds the requested repiat of a 29.0543 acre tract located in Lot 9, of the
F.A. Staashen Subdivision, satisfies applicable provisions of State Law and
City Ordinance.
We, therefore, recommend Commission approval with the condition that the
replat not be released for recordation until the following items have been
satisfied:
All signatures required on the plat are obtained prior to formal
recordation.
2. A recorded mylar is provided to the City.
3. Public hearing costs of $43.08 must be paid by the applicants.
