Jack McGuff, 5208 Broadway Ste 208, Pearland, explained that he started the project in
May of 1999, then in June they attended a pre-development meeting with the City. At
that time, there was a 0 rear yard set back, the construction plans were drawn with a 10'
rear yard set back. The new ordinance calls for a 25' rear yard set back. The drawings
are 60% complete.
Director of Community Development Gene Tumlinson explained that we do not like a 0'
rear lot line, but a 10' is workable. The project was already going on and they are caught
in the middle. He stated the request is justified.
Board Member Marvin Elam asked if they could move the parking to the rear. Mr. McGuff
stated that there would not be enough room. Gene explained that parking spaces have
to be large enough to back out of , therefore a safety issue may arise, with employees
exiting out of the back rather than the front.

approve V00-41.
Motion passed 5-0.
