Additional Backup Information:
Jason Rodriguez, owner of the property located at 1121 Ebert Avenue, through their agent, Roy Jensen, seeks to obtain a residential building permit for a proposed single-family dwelling. The proposed project is to construct a two-story, 2,353 square-foot building with a 549 square-foot porch and 484 square-foot detached garage.
The entire property is located within the 100-year floodplain of Tannehill Branch Creek.
The owner seeks variances from the City’s floodplain management regulations to: 1) encroach on the 100-year floodplain with the proposed building; and 2) not provide normal access from the building to an area that is a minimum of one foot above the design flood elevation (100-year floodplain).
