Mr. Sabo presented staffs report for Variance Request #V04-005. The applicant,
Refrigerated Container Sales, Inc., has requested a variance to deviate from the shipping
container stacking and side yard setback requirements at the property located at 1802 N.
Highway 146. On April 7t"the applicants were sent a_ letter~from the City, which cited the
front screen requirements and the south side setback were not in compliance with the
ordinance as well as a violation by having containers stacked more than four high. It was
stated that the issue was one of safety ~ and _ therefore not a consideration for
grandfathering.
Public notices were mailed to two property owners; no responses were received.
B. PROPONENTS
Chairperson Gant swore in Kurt Boren, 1802 Hwy. 146. Mr. Boren believes a 300'
setback from the property line will take care of any public safety issues. Mr. Boren
distributed a letter from neighboring A&L Services, Inc., in favor of the variance, citing the
containers act as a good barrier between the two facilities.
Chairperson Grant swore in Mike Alecock, 1802 Hwy. 146 N. Mr. Alecock stated at the
time of purchase, the property was zoned Light Industrial, which allowed heights up to 45
feet. ~ At that height, containers could be stacked five high. Mr. Alecock proposed leaving
a 390' safety zone from the outside of the property with four high stacking and five high
stacking reserved for the interior.

A variance is a "deviation from the literal provisions of the Zoning Ordinance." The City's
Board of Adjustments may NOT grant a variance that does not meet all~of the following
conditions:
1) The variance must not be contrary to the public interest:
2) Literal enforcement of the Zoning Ordinance must result in a hardship. This hardship
must be unique to the property in question. Property that is undevelopable due to its
unusual shape, narrowness, shallowness, or topography constitutes the primary example
of hardship. Hardships that are financial in nature or due to the owner's actions cannot
be granted. ~ "
3) Granting tt~e variance must not violate tl~e spirit of the Zoning Ordinance.
4) No variance that allows a use that is prohibited within the Use zone in question may be
granted. For example, a variance allowing a commercial use in a residential zone is not
allowable. ~ . ~ ~.
Please remember it is the Applicant's responsibility to prove that a variance will meet the
above conditions.
If there is not adequate room on the remainder of this form to list all pertinent information,
please feel free to attach.an additional letter or any information and exhibits you feel the Board
sh~-uld consider.

Staff Report ~ ~ June 24, 2004
Variance ReQUest #V04-006.
Requested bv: ~ Mr. Michael Dee Forrister (Property Owner)
Requested for: Lot 15, Ike's Addition, Vol. 166, Pg. 87, H.C.M.R., La Porte, Hams County, Texas.
Location: 1421 Lemon Way
Zonin~i ~ Low Density Residential (R-1)
Background: Lot 15 is 22,610 S.F. (+1/2 acre) located in the Lomax area and fronts in the west on
Lemon Lane. This section of Lemon Lane has extended front yazd setbacks established
by covenants (35'.), and the back yard setbacks are increased by a 30' Gulf Pipeline
Easement. The lot also has greater width than depth.
. ~ Per City ~ Code of Ordinances, Section 106-741 (a), no accessory buildings, uses or
. structures shall be erected or located in any required yard other-than reaz yazd. An
exception is made only for detached private garages and accessory buildings on a skid
foundation, no lazger than 120 S.F.
Section 106-741 (e) (1) further states that no accessory building, or carport garage for a
single-family dwelling shall occupy more than 25% of a reaz yazd; nor exceed 1,000 S.F.
An exception is made for lazge lot residential tracts to have accessory buildings up to
2,000 S.F. but by defuution, this exception is for tracts one (1) acre or greater.
This variance requests seeks to allow the construction of an accessory building in the side
yard of the lot, and to allow the building to be 30'x40', or 1200 S.F. which is 200 S.F.
over the limit.
Ana sis: Section 106-192(b)(1), in the Code of Ordinances, defines a variance as a deviation from
the literal provisions of the chapter, which is granted by the Board when strict
conformity to the chapter would cause an unnecessary hardship because of the
circumstances unique to the property on which the variance is granted
The subject tract is less than 1 acre: Section 106-741 prohibits the proposed construction
of the accessory building in the side yard and limits the size of the building to 1000 S.F.
Except as otherwise prohibited, the board is empowered to authorize a variance from a
requirement when the board finds that all of the following conditions have been met:
• That the granting of the variance will not be contrary to the best public interest.
• That literal enforcement of the chapter will result in unnecessary hardship because of
exceptional narrowness, shallowness, shape, topography or other extraordinary or
exceptional physical situation unique to the specific piece of property in question.
"Unnecessary hardship" shall mean physical hardship relating to the property itself as
distinguished from a hardship relating to convenience, financial considerations or

caprice, and the hardship must not result from the applicant or property owner's own
actions; and ..
• That by granting the variance, the spirit of the chapter will be observed.
A review of the site survey for the property shows the existence of the Oulf Pipeline
easement in the rear yard of the lot. This easement comes within 9.5 feet of the residence
and, therefore allows no room for the construction of an accessory building. The total
square footage of the lot may easily accommodate an accessory building but given the
unique character of the lot's dimensions of width verses depth, and the presence of the
pipeline easement upon which no construction is permitted, an additional building may
only be constructed in the side yard (north) .portion of the lot. As sited on the plan, the
building, when constructed, would be set back 20' from the side lot line and from the
residence thereby allowing for access by emergency vehicles.
In addition, the applicant wants to construct a 30'x 40' building that is 200 S. F. over the
limit allowed by the Ordinance. The applicant states that the additional size is required
due to:
• Hobbies include ~ metal fabrication and woodworking, large tools and
equipment.
• A 16' boat, motor and trailer as well as two utility trailers to store:
• Two motorcycles and three vehicles to store.
The ZBOA's final consideration~is whether granting of this request, observes the spirit of
the ordinance.
Conclusion: _ Variance Request #V04-006 seeks relief for the construction of an accessory building in
the side yard of Lot.15 and for said building to bens excess of 1000 S.F., both parameters
being contrary to the City Code- of Ordinances. The circumstance for the requested
variance does, in our opinion, meet the provisions established by Section 106-192.
(Variances) in that due to the "physical limitation" of the lot, both in the lack of depth
and the presence of the pipeline easement, make the rear yard unusable for construction.
While the reasons for the variance relating to the size of the building do not strictly
conform to "physical hardship relating to the property itself' the building's intended use
to store items,.vehicles and equipment that might otherwise be committed to open storage
should to taken into consideration and deemed to be in the public's interest.

While recognizing the circumstances -associated with the property, the Board could
consider:
• Allowing the construction of the accessory building in the side yard (variance
granted).
• Allowing the building to be 1200 S.F., in excess of the 1000 S.F. allowed by
ordinance, to accommodate intended private storage (variance granted).
• Allowing the. construction of the accessory building in the side yard (variance
granted) but limiting the size of the building to 1000 S.F. per the ordinance.
• Denying the variance for side yard construction of the accessory building
