DENALI POOLS Board of Adjustment Variance Request 6302 Shadow Valley Drive July 13, 2026 Jacob Rogers, Agent for Denali Pools On behalf of Paul & Heather Fink ITEM04/1-PRESENTATION The Property Lot 28, Highland Hills Section 9, Phase 2 | Zoning: SF-3 Address 6302 Shadow Valley Drive, Austin, TX 78731 Lot Size 13,353 SF Original Pool Built 1976 — predates current Land Development Code Impervious Cover Limit 45% (6,008 SF) under SF-3 zoning Site survey — Hodgkiss Surveying, 11/24/2020 ITEM04/2-PRESENTATION The Pool Is Failing Original 1976 structure — cracked shell, can no longer hold water Structural cracking throughout the pool shell Heaving and separation at the deck joints Chronic water loss — cannot be repaired further Deteriorating stone retaining wall and surrounding hardscape A 50-year-old structure at the end of its serviceable life. ITEM04/3-PRESENTATION Deterioration in Detail Current condition of the pool and deck Algae accumulation, organic debris, and visible wear on the coping and decking are consistent with a shell that has been slowly failing for years and can no longer maintain proper water chemistry. ITEM04/4-PRESENTATION Mature Protected Trees Constrain the Lot Three large Live Oaks limit where a pool can be built Tree #1 — 42.5" Live Oak Tree #2 — 35" Live Oak Tree #6 — 32" Live Oak These are large, established trees — decades old and protected under the City's tree ordinance. Their critical root zones (shown in green) surround the existing pool on three sides, leaving no reasonable alternate location on the lot. ITEM04/5-PRESENTATION Why the Existing Footprint Is the Only Option Two site-specific factors leave no alternative to rebuilding where the pool already sits: 1. Mature protected trees Three large Live Oaks and their root zones occupy most of the remaining usable yard, ruling out relocating the pool elsewhere on the lot. 2. Steep topography The survey shows significant grade change across the lot; the existing pool sits on the one graded, buildable area. Together, these constraints mean the only realistic path forward is to demolish and rebuild in the exact same footprint. ITEM04/6-PRESENTATION What We're Proposing Demolish the failing 1976 pool and rebuild in the exact same footprint. No expansion of the pool or decking No new impervious surface — zero net change in coverage Same location as the pool that has existed since 1976 Modern, code-compliant pool with required safety barriers Pool equipment relocated into the existing garage ITEM04/7-PRESENTATION Impervious Coverage Analysis …

C15-2026-0021 / 2101 Arpdale St George Siddall additional presentation for July 13, 2026, BOA Meeting 1 ITEM05/1-PRESENTATION The house was built in 1950 on an unusually narrow corner lot (about 57 feet wide where most lots are more than 60 feet), which restricts the buildable area. The house was set back only 12 feet from the side street rather than the current requirement of 15 feet, and there is no other location for a driveway. The layout has minimal impervious cover and maximizes space for trees and gardening. Vehicles in the short drive are damaged by sun and acidic discharge and shedding of limbs from the large protected pecan tree next to the drive. 2101 Arpdale, view of driveway on Ann Arbor 2 ITEM05/2-PRESENTATION Most properties in the area are wider and require only a 5-foot side setback, allowing covered parking or awnings at least 12 feet deep alongside the house. Examples are shown in the photos beginning on page 4. In storms in May and June this year, broken tree limbs fell on at least ten properties within a block of 2101 Arpdale. Most of those properties have covered parking 5 feet or less from the side boundary, protecting vehicles from damage. In the case of 2101 Arpdale, strict adherence to the additional side setback denies the owner the reasonable protection of driveway parking that is otherwise code compliant and available to other properties in the area. The presentation submitted at the Board’s hearing on June 8, 2026, and the letter from the Zilker Neighborhood Association contain more information regarding possible code changes that could be relevant to this case. 3 ITEM05/3-PRESENTATION Variance case C15-2026-0021, examples of covered parking near 2102 Arpdale 4 ITEM05/4-PRESENTATION 5 ITEM05/5-PRESENTATION 6 ITEM05/6-PRESENTATION 7 ITEM05/7-PRESENTATION

Project Summary: The Pease Elementary School building dates from 1876, one of the first schools built with public funds in Texas. The building was expanded in 1895, 1896, 1916 and 1926, and remodeled in 1949. The school building is three stories, load bearing masonry construction with a stucco exterior finish applied to the masonry walls. The building was designated as a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark in 2013 and is a contributing structure to the West Austin Downtown National Register Historic District, designated in 2024. The primary goals of the Pease Elementary School rehabilitation project are to prepare the building for use as an early childhood learning center on the lower two floors and as office space on the upper floor. Goodwill Austin will operate the early childhood learning center, and United Way for Greater Austin will occupy the office spaces. The project will be completed in two primary construction phases. Phase I, included in these review materials, addresses conditions at the building exterior. Phase II, not included in these review materials, addresses conditions at the building interior and the site and grounds. The exterior work to be done under the Phase I project includes: • Remove existing exterior fire stairs and replace with new exterior fire stairs • Window and exterior door replacement • Downspout replacement • Limited repairs to existing roof, in the areas of new penetrations through the existing roof • Limited repairs to existing stucco coating, in the areas where window, exterior door and fire stair replacement occurs • Exterior painting of stucco coating East Elevation North Elevation West Elevation South Elevation West Elevation, detail West Elevation, detail West Elevation, detail South Elevation, detail South Elevation, detail South Elevation, detail South Elevation, detail South Elevation, detail South Elevation, detail

ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: July 7, 2026: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: On March 9, 2023, City Council approved Resolution No. 20230309-016 accepting the Equitable Transit-Oriented Development Policy Plan and directing the City Manager regarding next steps for implementation of items intended to benefit the Project Connect Phase 1 Austin Light Rail project.

It should be noted; this location does have an existing, approximate 35-feet tall AT&T tower with an equipment shelter and lease agreement executed prior to COA annexing the Davenport Ranch MUD No. 1 in Dec.1997. Originally, the tower lease was with Davenport Ranch MUD No.1. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought.

Learn why this is important External Email - Exercise Caution Dear Ms. Villela, I am writing regarding Zoning Case C14-2025-0089 and the proposed development at Loop 360 and Lost Creek Blvd. Lost Creek Blvd is already facing significant planned growth, including two major housing developments that will materially increase traffic volume and congestion in the near term. Adding this proposed project on top of that existing pipeline of development risks overloading the corridor beyond what it can safely handle. Of particular concern is emergency access and evacuation capacity. Lost Creek has limited ingress and egress, and additional density without a clear, validated plan for traffic flow and evacuation could create serious safety risks for residents, especially in a wildfire or other emergency scenario. Given these factors, I strongly support postponing the vote until comprehensive traffic and wildfire evacuation studies are completed and incorporated into the decision-making process. It is critical that cumulative impacts from all planned developments are evaluated together, not in isolation. Thank you …
