Per instructions received from the city staff, each requirement for which the variance is being requested and justification for the variance is listed. Masonry Ordinance No. 557 -A Requirement(s): Exterior Masonry Construction Section 1 (a) — Buildings requiring masonry on all sides All buildings constructed on property zoned O- 1, 0-2, C -1, C -2, C -3, G4, 13-1, B -2, or CS under the City's Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance and all buildings within any residential zoning district which are for community facility uses shall have all exterior walls constructed using a masonry material covering at least eighty percent (80%) of said walls, exclusive of all windows, doors, glass construction, materials, or sidewalk and walk -way covers. Section 1 (c) - Buildings in P.U. D_, S -P -1 and S -P -2 districts The masonry Ordinance requires all buildings located on property zoned P.I .D., S -P -1, or S -P -2 underthe City's Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance shall be required to comply with the masonry standards applicable to the most restrictive district in which the use is permitted. Variance Reauest(s): The Applicant respectfully requests relief from the aforementioned Ordinance as it applies to the Applicant's intended use of portable buildings for temporary administrative offices for a period not to exceed two (2) years. Variance Justification: The intended use of the proposed portable buildings is to provide a means by which the Applicant can begin hiring and processing staff for the new Forest Park Medical Center Southlake facility. The need for this building is not speculative in nature as might be found in a residential development, and in fact, will have a finite time limit associated with them; that being until such time the Phase 1 Medical Office Building is completed which will include the permanent administrative offices for Forest Park Medical Center. The portable buildings will be located near the northwest entrance into the overall development such that the public access and public parking will be completely segregated from any construction access and construction parking while the Forest Park Medical Center Southlake hospital and parking Neal Richards Group, LLC 3030 Olive Street, Suite 220 Dallas, Tx 7521 9 (2'14) 754.001 3 Main (214) 754.001 1 Fax 1 of 2 Attachment C Page 1 neal richards group garage construction is ongoing (Reference the attached Exhibits 'I and 2). Upon completion of the Forest Park Medical Center Southlake hospital and parking garage, the portable buildings will share the northwest public entrance and public parking with the hospital. Upon completion of the Phase 1 Medical Office Building, the portable buildings will be removed. The attached trailer plan (Reference Exhibit 3) confirms that the intended use is office in nature, and attached photos (Reference Exhibits 6 and 7) clearly detail the type of portable building to be placed on site, The Applicant feels that the temporary nature of these structures coupled with their proposed location on site pose no adverse impacts on the City of 5outhlake, or any of the adjacent properties, and provides enough justification for granting the variance request.
