CASE #: PD-110(A) (LOT 17, BLOCK C, PECAN HOLLOW ADDITION)
P & Z HEARING DATE: January 16, 1992
C. C. HEARING DATE: January 28, 1992
LOCATION: Approximately 550' south of Parkway Boulevard, along the
west side of Lodge Road (324 Beechwood Lane).
REQUEST: Approval of a deviation from the required 25' front yard
setback to a proposed 23'
APPLICANT: Drees Homes
Ms. Linda Cowman
916 R011ingbr00k Lane
Coppell, TX 75019
HISTORY: This lot is a part of the Pecan Hollow subdivision.
ANALYSIS: The primary purpose of this request is to allow the
structure (to be located at 324 Beechwood) to be placed on
a 21' front yard setback instead of the required 25' front
yard setback. By allowing the home to be placed on a 21'
front yard setback, four mature trees will be saved, which
are situated near the back of the lot.
Initially, when the applicant discussed the setback issue
with staff, the applicant stated that a 2' variance was
needed. But more recently, the project manager for Drees
Homes determined 4' instead of 2' would be needed in order
to save the four trees.
Because this lot will require 3' to 4' of fill to be placed
on the property, retaining walls must be placed on the lot
to hold the fill, at a placement of a least 4' from the
slab. Only the garage portion of the home will encroach
past the 25' front yard setback. As a result, one elm, one
ash, a large hackberry and a substantially large caliper
hackberry tree will be saved if the variance request is
granted. Photographs of the trees to be saved, will be
presented at the meeting.
ALTERNATIVES: 1) Approve the alteration to the site plan 2) Deny the alteration to the site plan
3) Modify the request
ATTACHMENTS: 11 Site Plan 2) Letter from potential home buyer
3) Front elevation
