Title
Conduct a Public hearing to Consider/Discuss/Act on the request by Owner Brent McMurray, to Consider/Discuss/Act on the Appeal of the Building Official's decision for the consideration of a variance to the zoning ordinance rear setback requirement of 15 feet to allow a rear setback of 5 feet and 4 inches, for an attached covered patio at 3713 Perkins Ln., Lot 9 of Block B of the Enclave at Hidden Creek Addition to the City of McKinney, Texas.
Summary
BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT CASE NUMBER: BOA23-01
MEETING DATE: May 24, 2023
DEPARTMENT: Development Services - Building Inspections
CONTACT: Suzanne Arnold, Chief Building Official
RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Consider this variance request based on the applicant statement on the Board of Adjustment (BOA) application.
ZONING: PD 1522
EXISTING CONDITIONS: The lot is compliant with zoning. The rear yard backs up to an approximately 15' strip of landscaped common area, followed by Kings Hollow Ln. The lot falls at a slight curve in Perkins and Kings Hollow Lns., resulting in irregularly-shaped front and rear property lines. The proposed patio would be located on the side of the rear yard where the property line comes closest to the house in order to line up with the existing patio and avoid the pool.
ITEM SUMMARY: The applicant is seeking to construct a new attached patio cover on the back of his single-family residence. The proposed wood-framed structure is approximately 11' by 16'. Exterior materials include cedar, stone, and conventional shingles to match the house. The applicant submitted plans for a building permit on 2/23/23, which was reviewed and denied on 3/7/23 because of the noncompliant rear setback. The city received this application for a rear setback variance on 4/18/23.
