4901 Mirador Dr Variance Request Case Number: C15-2022-0022 Presenter: Frank Fuentes Variance Request To have a Front Yard setback of 30’ Required Front Yard Setback Land Development Code Section 25-2-492 Site Development Regulations for a Front Yard setback of 40’ for RR zoning Hardship Due to the slope of the lot and restrictions, it would be difficult to utilize the narrow allowed buildable space of the property without encroaching into the Water Quality Easement which covers more than 2/3 of the lot. Hardship Parcel is divided by the Austin ETJ and Austin LTD jurisdictions and is currently zoned as RR zoning, the spot zoning within the LTD has not been conclusively established. Hardship The majority of the 88 homes in the Barton Creek South subdivision and per the recorded design guidelines have followed a 30’ front set back created at the time of the plat. The Barton Creek South subdivision recorded guidelines set a 30’ setback for this lot. Area Character Surrounding homes, in both the LTD Jurisdiction and the ETJ Jurisdiction in the subdivision were built following the 30' front setback as shown in the BCS guidelines The majority of the subdivision is located within the Austin ETJ. The property is one of few located in Austin LTD. Hardship The Lot is split between the Austin LTD and ETJ jurisdictions. The Home was designed to utilize the Buildable area of the property as per the BCS guidelines Homes in the subdivision do not have the RR zoning and have utilized the 30' Setback. Community Support Signatures received in support of the change to a 30’ front setback. Community Support from Owner’s Association Conclusion The variance will allow the building of a home on the restricted section of the lot with the same setback requirements as followed by other homes built in this subdivision while still following the RR zoning.
