Item 4JCITY OF
SOUTHLAK
MEMORANDUM Item 4J
February 19, 2013
To: Shana Yelverton, City Manager
From: Alicia Richardson, City Secretary
Subject: Resolution No. 13-011, Appoint members to the Zoning Board
of Adjustment to fulfill unexpired terms
Action Requested: Appoint members to Zoning Board of Adjustment to fill unexpired
terms.
Background
Information: A Home Rule Charter of the City of Southlake was approved by the
voters in a duly called Charter election on April 4, 1987.
In the Home Rule Charter, Chapter XI concerns Planning and
Zoning, and Section 11.02 allows for a Board of Adjustment, which
shall have all of the powers and authority as set forth in state law
and such additional powers and privileges as may be duly assigned
to it by the ordinances of the City.
Pursuant to Section 44.1, of Ordinance No. 480, as amended, the
Board of Adjustment was established to consist of five (5) members
and four (4) alternates to be appointed by the City Council. The
term of office for said members shall be for two years. Three (3)
members and two (2) alternates shall be appointed to serve terms
beginning in odd numbered years and two (2) members and two (2)
alternates shall be appointed to serve terms beginning in even
numbered years.
Section 44.2, of Ordinance No 480, as amended, provides for the
proceedings of the board. "All cases to be heard by the Board of
Adjustment shall always be heard by a minimum of four (4)
members." Likewise, Section 44.7, states that "the concurring vote
of four members of the Board shall be necessary to reverse any
order, requirement, decision, or determination of the Administrative
Official, or to decide in favor of the applicant on any matter upon
which the Board is required to pass under this ordinance, as
amended), or to approve any variance."
Most recently, the City has received two resignations from alternate
board members.
1. Ms. Nicole Smith, term expiring June 30, 2014; and
2. Ms. Lisa Amend, term expiring June 30, 2013.
These resignations, coupled with the existing alternate vacancies,
place the Board at risk of not having a quorum to conduct business.
To assist Council with appointments, a listing of applications
currently on file with the City Secretary's Office is being provided.
The following citizens currently serve on the Zoning Board of
Adjustment
