P2021-058 — Single-family home (Residential Infill in or Adjacent to an Established Subdivision) in Rockwall, TX
The applicant seeks approval of a Specific Use Permit to construct a 3,962 SF two-story single-family home on a vacant 0.161-acre lot (804 Kernodle Street) in a mature SF-7 residential area. The proposed home exceeds the height and square footage of most nearby homes (typically 1,080-3,825 SF), and the garage setback (4.25 inches from front façade) does not meet the standard 20-foot requirement, though this is reportedly typical for the area. Staff notes approval is discretionary and depends on a finding that the home will not negatively impact the established subdivision; one opposition letter has been received.
