STAFF REPORT
The Planning Manager recommends approval subject to the following conditions:
1. The mother-in-law quarters will not be leased.
2. The mother-in-law quarters shall not be on a separate electrical meter.
Jesse Lee Turner has applied for a specific use permit to build a mother-in-law quarters in
an RS (Residential Single Family Dwelling) District. The property is located at 5310
Linda Lane.
Mr. Turner has suffered several recent health setbacks and is no longer able to live alone
in his mobile home in Sour Lake. After some discussion between him and his sister,
Ruby Lee Turner Ott, they decided they would prefer to live together at this property.
The family felt it best to construct a separate quarters at the rear of Ms. Ott’s home to
provide each of them some privacy and independence. The structure would be a 20.5' x
28.5' single story residence.
Please note that final occupancy approval is subject to review and acceptance of
submitted plans and field inspections to verify compliance with applicable codes.
Exhibits are attached.
