TEXAS. BRAZORIA COUNTY APPRAISAL DISTRICT PROPERTY ID 715814.

ANGLETON BLOCK 67, LOT FIVE 5.A. MR. SPRIGGS, WOULD YOU INTRODUCE THIS ITEM, PLEASE? THANK YOU COMMISSIONERS. THIS IS AS STATED, IT'S A PUBLIC HEARING, A REQUEST FOR A VARIANCE OF A LOT WIDTH REQUIREMENT WITHIN THE 6.3 DISTRICT.

THIS AREA IS IN THE OLDER PART OF TOWN IS CONSIDERED A LOT OF RECORD.

THERE ARE 2 SMALL LOTS THAT MAKE UP THE 49FT THAT WE'RE DEALING WITH TODAY.

SO IT'S JUST SHY OF THE REQUIRED FRONTAGE AS YOU SEE HERE OF 60FT IN THIS PARTICULAR AREA.

WE FIND THAT THIS WOULD BE WITHIN THE SPIRIT AND INTENT OF WHAT WE TRY TO PROMOTE.

IF YOU GO TO THE GRAPHIC, IT WILL SHOW BASICALLY THAT THE HOME TO BE PLACED ON.

THE LOT WILL FIT WITHIN THE SETBACKS THAT ARE REQUIRED FOR 6.3.

AND THE ONLY THING THAT YOU'RE CONSIDERING IS THIS LOT WITH VARIANCE, WHICH WOULD ALSO GO TO CONSOLE.

THIS WOULD BE A MINOR PLAT IN WHICH WE WOULD PROCESS ADMINISTRATIVELY THROUGH THE DEPARTMENT.

AND NOTE IF THE VARIANCE IS GRANTED. WE DO HAVE THE PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE SITE POSTED AND YOU HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO LOOK AT THAT.

SO WE FIND THAT THERE'S NO ADVERSE IMPACT ON THE GENERAL AREA.

THIS WOULD ONLY ADD TO THE VALUATION OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND APPEARANCE AS WELL.

SO STAFF IS RECOMMENDING THAT THE COMMISSION WOULD APPROVE THIS AND MOVE IT ON TO COUNCIL FOR FINAL ACTION.

ALL RIGHT. AT THIS TIME I WILL ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING.

SO MOVED. I HAVE A MOTION BY COMMISSIONER TOWNSEND AND A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER BIERI.

ALL THOSE IN FAVOR INDICATE BY SAYING I. I. OKAY.

WE ARE NOW HAVE A PUBLIC HEARING OPEN. IF ANYONE WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ABOUT THIS PROJECT, NOW IS YOUR TIME.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO. OKAY, COME TO THE MICROPHONE AND INTRODUCE YOURSELF, PLEASE.

AND GOOD MORNING EVERYONE. MY NAME IS JASMINE ACERO AND I RESIDE IN PEARLAND, TEXAS, AND I AM RESPECTFULLY REQUESTING A VARIANCE TO ALLOW ME TO BUILD A SINGLE FAMILY HOME IN THIS LESS THAN REQUIRED 60 FOOT PIECE OF PROPERTY.

MY BOYFRIEND LIVES IN FREEPORT, TEXAS, AND AS WE PLAN OUR FUTURE TOGETHER, WE HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR A LOCATION THAT WOULD ALLOW US TO BUILD OUR HOME WHILE REMAINING REASONABLY CLOSE TO BOTH OF OUR FAMILIES. ANGLETON IS AN IDEAL LOCATION, AND WE HAVE REALLY BECOME FOND OF THIS REALLY NICE AREA. SO I UNDERSTAND THAT THE CITY'S ZONING AND DEVELOPMENT REQUIREMENTS EXIST FOR IMPORTANT REASONS.

SO THAT'S WHY WE ARE RESPECTFULLY ASKING THE BOARD TO CONSIDER WHETHER THIS PARTICULAR LOT CAN REASONABLY SUPPORT A WELL DESIGNED SINGLE FAMILY HOME WITHIN THIS 10 FOOT VARIANCE THAT IT HAS, WE DON'T BELIEVE IT WILL NEGATIVELY AFFECT THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

AND WE INTEND TO MAKE A SIGNIFICANT PERSONAL INVESTMENT IN THIS PROPERTY.

IN THE CITY OF ANGLETON, WE PLAN TO BUILD A QUALITY HOME AND MAINTAIN IT.

AND THIS WOULD NOT BE A TEMPORARY PROJECT OR SOMETHING THAT WE INTEND TO INVEST AND SELL OFF, BUT TO LIVE THERE FOR THE REST OF OUR FORESEEABLE FUTURE.

AND FOR THESE REASONS, WE PRESENT TODAY AND RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOU TO GRANT THE VARIANCE.

THANK YOU. IS THERE ANYONE ELSE LIKE TO SPEAK? GOING ONCE. GOING TWICE. OKAY. AT THIS TIME, I'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.
