PUBLIC HEARING - #ZBA-89-02 - REQUEST OF METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE
COMPANY, OWNER OF THE TRACT OF LAND LOCATED AT 1100 N. MAIN STREET, FOR A
VARIANCE TO THE FIFTEEN FOOT (15' ) REAR YARD REQUIREMENT FOR THE PROPERTY
KNOWN AS LOT 1, BLOCK 1, CENTURY PLAZA ADDITION
Chairman Staks explained the rules of the public hearing and declared the
public hearing opened.
Mr. Ron Young, Redd-Young Engineering & Surveying, Inc. , 14114 Dallas
Parkway, Suite 580, Dallas, Texas, stated he was representing Metropolitan
Life Insurance Co. and Stop-N-Go. He explained that Metropolitan Life
Insurance Co. recently purchased the property and leased it back to
Stop-N-Go. However, when the property was surveyed, it was determined that
there was a six inch encroachment into the rear yard. Metropolitan Life
has required that the situation be remedied. He further explained that the
Stop-N-Go building plans indicate it was designed to be constructed
according to the building and zoning codes.
Mr. Case commended the owner for trying to correct the problem through
proper procedures. He also asked if this Board granted the variance and
the building was ever expanded or had to be reconstructed, would the
building be allowed to be built back with this encroachment.
Mr. Tyler stated it would be referred to the city attorney for his
opinion.
There being no additional questions, Chairman Staks closed the public
hearing. He noted that if the Board desired, they could restrict the six
inch variance to apply to this structure only.
Mr. Sims made a motion to approve the six inch encroachment into the
fifteen foot rear yard for the Stop-N-Go located at 1100 N. Main Street on
Lot 1, Block 1, Century Plaza Addition, and be limited to the existing
building only.
Mr. Huneycutt seconded the motion.
Ayes: Messrs. Sims, Huneycutt, Case, and Staks
Nays: None
Chairman Staks declared the motion carried.
