PROJECT: Specific Use Permit for Non -Residential Solar Energy System and Carport
EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY: Dr. Timothy M. Huckabee, of Huckabee Dental, is requesting approval of a Specific
Use Permit for a Non -Residential Solar Energy and carport located at 505 W.
Southlake Boulevard, on approximately 0.9 acres. SPIN #10
DETAILS: Dr. Timothy M. Huckabee is requesting approval of a Non -Residential Solar Energy
System and a Non -Residential Carport consisting of solar energy system panels,
approximately 2,496 square feet in area, on a proposed carport structure
approximately 12-feet in height. The solar panels will be located on the roof of the
proposed carport and will be installed existing parking spaces immediately behind
the dental office building. The carport structure is approximately 104 feet in length,
23 feet in width, and 12 feet in height. The solar energy system panel area will
provide 33,600 watts of solar power.
Variances
Due to some of the existing conditions on site the applicant is requesting some
variances to carport development regulations due to the unique nature of this
request.
1) Carport Roof: Section 45.11 (Specific Use Permits) of the City's Zoning
Ordinance requires that the roof of a detached carport shall be pitched and
constructed with the same materials as the roof of the principal building. Since
solar panels are being proposed on the roof, the applicant would like a variance
to this requirement.
2) Carport Maximum Number of Spaces and Size: Section 45.11 (Specific Use
Permits) of the City's Zoning Ordinance requires that the maximum number of
spaces that may be covered by a carport shall not exceed six (6) spaces.
However, where a carport is not visible from a public right-of-way orfrom single-
family residential property, the Planning and Zoning Commission may
recommend and the City Council may approve an increase in the number of
spaces allowed in a carport. The minimum size of each space shall be 9' by 20'.
Since the parking space are existing (9'x18' in size) and the carport would be to
the rear of the building and out of view of residential properties the applicant
has requested a variance to this requirement.
3) Carport Building Materials: Section 45.11 (Specific Use Permits) of the City's
Zoning Ordinance requires that all exterior fagades and any exposed structural
support columns of a carport shall be constructed with the same or similar
materials as the principal building. However, such building materials shall

exclude the use of cement, concrete tilt wall and other masonry materials of
similar characteristics. The applicant has requested a variance to this
requirement due to its lack of visibility of any roadway.
ACTION NEEDED: 1) Conduct Public Hearing
2) Consider Specific Use Permit Approval Request for a Non -Residential Solar
Energy System and a Non -Residential Carport
