Board of Adjustment Deep Dive: Key Topics & Issues Development Services Department February 22, 2024 1 Agenda ● General Background & History of BOA ● Core BOA functions & requirements: Variances Special Exceptions Appeals BOA Process Issues ● Boat Docks ● Environmental & Lake/Shoreline Presentations ● Residential Review 2 …..but first, introductions: BOA Members Thomas Ates Jessica Cohen Melissa Hawthorne Brian Poteet Marcel Gutierrez-Garza Margaret Shahrestani Jeffery Bowen Janel Venzant Michael Von Ohlen Yung-ju Kim Kelly Blume (Alternate) Suzanne Valentine (Alternate) City Staff Keith Mars Brent Lloyd Chris Johnson Elaine Ramirez Diana Ramirez Lyndi Garwood Alex Creel Mike Peralta John Clement Clarissa Davis 3 • • Zoning Boards of Adjustment Included in the 1929 model “state zoning enabling act,” promulgated by U.S. Dept. of Commerce. Intended to provide greater flexibility by authorizing “variation” of zoning regulations and provide administrative oversight. • Unlike municipal planning/zoning commissions, which performs a mix of advisory and decision-making functions, all BOA functions are quasi-judicial. 4 Austin’s Board of Adjustment • Austin’s BOA established by 1931 zoning ordinance: 5 Zoning Variances 6 Zoning Variance Criteria per Land Development Code Findings for Approval Guidelines No Reasonable Use The requirement does not allow for a reasonable use of property. Determined by context. Landowner needn’t prove a “taking” (i.e., loss of all economically viable use), but desire for “highest & best” use is insufficient. Harship Area Character Harship is unique to the property and is not generally characteristic of the area in which the property is located. Typically involves features of the property itself, but overall context of development may also be considered. Development under the variance does not: (a) alter the character of the area adjacent to the property; (b) impair the use of adjacent property; or (c) impair the purposes of the applicable zoning district regulations. Considers how development allowed by variance would impact properties differently than development without a variance, as well as well as development patterns in the surround area and goals of the regulations 7 Variance Standard per State Law Per Chapter 211 of the Local Government Code, a board of adjustment may: “[A]uthorize in specific cases a variance from the terms of a zoning ordinance if the variance is not contrary to the public interest and, due to special conditions, a literal enforcement of the ordinance would result in unnecessary hardship, and so that the spirit of the …
