requestsThe above -referenced approved by the City of Paris Zoning Board of Adjustment
("Board') on 6/6/2023 by a vote of ayes,nays and abstaining.
On this date, the Board found that the requests met the conditions set fort in the City of Pari
Area Regulations Ordinance, Section 9-501(1).
Appeal: Any interested person wishing to appeal this Board decision is required to file a petition
for Writ of Certiorari in a district court, county court or county court at law within ten (10) days
of the date this decision is filed in the Board's office consistent with section 211.011 of the Texas
Local Government Code.
The Board of Adjustment hereby approves the variance requests based upon the following
condition and findings of fact.
Condition
1. The developer shall be required to pay for installation of no parking signs on the adjoining
street frontages, as may be required and approved by the City's Traffic Commission.
Findings
1. The request for variance is in harmony with the general purposes and intent of site
improvement regulations contained in the Zoning Ordinance 1710 Exhibit 9B and the
Subdivision Ordinance 1315 Exhibit 9A; and will protect the character of the immediate
vicinity of the area.
2. The approval of the variances for front yard setbacks will allow approval of the replat without
further condition for variance approval, will permit the redevelopment of the site with a much
higher quality of development in a manner which will help to further address drainage
inadequate drainage conditions on the site and adjoining neighborhood, and will further
advance the housing redevelopment policies of the City through the 5 In 5 program.
3. There are special and unique condition(s) of existing lots which involve 3 street frontages and
make it impractical to access all parking areas in the rear of the dwellings. The reduced front
yard setbacks will allow for more practical vehicular movements with a single access point
onto only 1 of the 3 roadways; while at the same time permitting additional greenspace and
improved stormwater handling and landscaped aesthetics of the frontages without driveways
on all sides.
4. The site redevelopment considerations are unique and not applicable to all other existing
parcels of land in the MF -1 Zoning District. This causes unique, unusual and practical
difficulty for to the proposed redevelopment of the property.
5. The hardship sought to be avoided is the result of (a) the applicant's own actions (self-imposed
or self-created), but the existing site parcel dimensions support the need for minor deviation to
the minimum setback standards in a manner which supports the new redevelopment
construction.
6. The provision of the ordinance regulation that are sought to be varied, deprive the applicant of
reasonable rights to use the property that are commonly enjoyed by other older residential
properties in the MF -1 Residential Zoning District
This decision was filed in the Board's office on 6/6/2023.
