Commissioners approve no-dune-permit for second-deck addition after Coastal review

Summary

The court approved a no-dune-protection permit for an additional second‑story deck at a residential property after review by the Beachfront Management Advisory Committee (BMAC) and the Texas General Land Office (GLO); GLO asked that the county ensure legal owner authorization due to appraisal-district discrepancies.

Nueces County Commissioners Court approved a permit determination that no dune protection permit is required for a second‑story deck addition at a residential property seaward of the 350 line, after county staff said the location involves temporary construction access but no dune impacts.

County planner Kristen explained the project is an additional second-story deck sited on a lot that requires equipment access but does not affect dunes, and that the Beachfront Management Advisory Committee (BMAC) and the Texas General Land Office recommended approval. Commissioner discussion noted a GLO comment that the applicant information did not match the Nueces County Appraisal District records, and staff confirmed they had submitted clarification that the parcel is part of a tract recorded differently in the appraisal system and that the applicant and agent contact information had been appended to the application.

The court approved the determination unanimously and recorded that BMAC and GLO supported the permit decision.

Ending: staff will ensure the legal owner has authorized construction per GLO's request and proceed with permit administration.
