Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Texas
Zoning abeyance
Question: if my property is in an area
being rezoned, currently accepted as a
case study by Dallas, and I am cited for
a code enforcement issue that would
specifically be addressed and resolved
in the rezoning, do I have any
protection to gain an abeyance until the
rezoning is finalized? I am a permit
holder in regard to this issue.
This is in regard to a shed that is 5 ft.
from the property line, code is requiring
it be 15 ft. It will be revised to 3 ft.
when the zoning change occurs.

Your best bet is to present this question to the agency who issued the citation.
