Reference: Lennar Homes of Texas
Southdown Section Seven (8)
FSI JO 94010-80
Dear Mr. Hargrove:
On behalf of Lennar Homes, we hereby request a variance to use a 20 foot building line on cul-de-sac
and thumbnail lots in Southdown Section Eight (8). Our request is based on the following
considerations:
1. Lots that front on a cul-de-sac or thumbnail will have a greater distance between houses than
the 100 foot (50' +25' +25') that occurs on the typical 50 foot right-of-way with a 25 foot
building line on both sides. With a 20 foot building line, the separation between houses on
a cul-de-sac will be 140 feet (100+20+20). There will not be the appearance from across
the street of the houses being crowded.
2. The 20 foot building line outside the right-of-way provides adequate space to park a car
without blocking the sidewalk.
3. Cul-de-sacs typically crowd the depth available for building a house. A 20 foot building line
provides more space toward the front of the lot to fit a house and provide a back yard.
4. All previous sections of Southdown Subdivision have requested and used the 20 foot front
building line.
Based on these considerations, we request the variance request he approved.
Sincerely,
Immanuel De Pau,
Project Engineer

Dear Mr. Hargrove:
RECEIVED JAN I '4 1998
On behalf of Friendswood Land Development Co., we hereby request a variance to use a 20 foot
building line on all lots in Southdown Section Nine (9). Our request is based on the following
considerations:
1. In the 1980's, this Section was first intended for commercial use. Instead, it will be used for
residential use. Due to the limited space, we can only provide a 20 foot building line in the
front of the lots. The 20 foot building line outside the right-of-way provides adequate space
to park a car without blocking the sidewalk.
2. Lots that front on a cul-de-sac or thumbnail will have a greater distance between houses than
the 100 foot (50'+25'+25') that occurs on the typical 50 foot right-of-way with a 25 foot
building line on both sides. With a 20 foot building line, the separation between houses on
a cul-de-sac will be 140 feet (100+20+20). There will not be the appearance from across

Variance Request
Dear Mr. Hargrove:
On behalf of Friendswood Land Development Co., we hereby request a variance
to use extra long cul-de-sacs in Southdown Section Nine (9)
In the 1980's, this Section was first intended for commercial use. Instead, it will
be used for residential use. Due to the limited space, a street along the center of
the tracts with cul-de-sacs at each end is the best layout. Access to County Road 94
will be through Lambeth Drive. No direct access to County Road 94 will be
allowed.
Based on this consideration, we request approval of this variance.

Variance:
Allow 12.5 sideyard aggregate setback line instead of 15 foot.
Mr. Rick Gadd and Mr. John English were present representing the owner, R. West Development.
Vice Chair Beltz asked if this was the first time the Commission has considered a variance for 12.5
foot sideyard aggregate setback line, and Mr. English said it had been approved in West Oaks
Section 1.
Mr. Hargrove recommend approval of the plat as presented.
Vice Chair Beltz asked if Autunm Forest was 1,000 feet in length; and Mr. Hargrove replied yes,
it ties into Section 2. He added there is no problem ending paving at the north end of Lot 1. Vice
Chair Beltz asked if there is a provision to make a turnaround out of Autumn Forest Drive. Mr.
Gadd said that is a possibility. Mr. Hargrove said he would like for the street to be built all the
way to the end and a high grade barrier there, as Lot 16 access depends on that street. Mr.
Hargrove said the Ordinance allows for short deadend streets.
A motion was made by Commissioner Starr and seconded by Vice Chair Beltz to approve the
Preliminary Plat of West Oaks Village, Section Two.
Motion to approve passed 5 to 0.
