Supporting Documents for Architectural Review Committee for discussion November 30, 2020 To: Committee Members, Architectural Review Committee From: Robin and Taylor Bruce – owners of 1406 Ethridge Ave, and Sam Burch, architect for 1406 Ethridge Ave Date: Provided to the Committee on November 25, 2020 Subject: Proposed Renovation of 1406 Ethridge Ave, Austin TX 78703 Response We are submitting this statement in support of granting permit to move forward with updates and renovations at 1406 Ethridge Ave (“1406”), Austin, TX 78703 in order to extend the life of the home and update its premises to allow for comfortable occupancy for a family of five. As we shared in our original meeting with the HLC on November 16, 2020, we (owners, Robin and Taylor Bruce) are incredibly grateful to the HLC for highlighting the pioneering legacy of the original occupants of 1406, Reverend Edmund Heinsohn and his family. We feel honored to be the stewards of this home’s legacy of inclusion and warmth and to be raising our children amidst such shared values. Our aim in this proposed renovation is to preserve the defining qualities of 1406 while updating the space to accommodate our family of five and plant firm roots in the surrounding neighborhood. We also wanted to reiterate here the expert opinion of Sam Burch, architect, in response to the specific elements detailed in the HLC’s review: • The garage is in fact not a new addition as is stated on C.3-2. The garage was added in 2004 and currently has a composition shingle roof and fiber lap siding. Our plans account for recladding the exterior, replacing the composition shingle and adding living space in the existing attic which will not change the overall roofline. We are adding a dormer that is visible from the driveway. These updates will improve the look and feel of the garage from the street. • The new addition detailed in submitted plans at the rear of the house is replacing an existing addition that was constructed in 1994. It is poorly built and contributes nothing to the existing home. When this addition was built all of the existing stone on the rear of the original house was removed. • While the proposed front porch will somewhat alter the front of the house, the intent is for the owner to be able to enjoy the neighborhood and engage with their neighbors. That is currently …
APPLICATION FOR A PERMIT WITHIN A NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION CONGRESS AVENUE NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT NOVEMBER 16, 2020 506 CONGRESS AVENUE C.6 - 1 PROPOSAL Paint a mural on the face of the building. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The applicant proposes painting a mural on the face of the building on Congress Avenue. This building was the former Yaring’s Store, but was architecturally modified in 2002 with the installation of additional tall fixed sash windows in the second story and a new steel and glass storefront, so that it may no longer be contributing to the Congress Avenue National Register Historic District. The changes were reviewed and approved by the Commission in 2002. 506 Congress Avenue prior to 2002 remodeling 506 Congress Avenue after renovations The proposed mural is large and colorful with a soccer motif. It was designed by renowned Spanish artist Ruben Sanchez; Here is his website https://www.iamrubensanchez.com C.6 - 2 STANDARDS FOR REVIEW The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation do not apply to artwork applied to buildings in historic districts, and the Commission has no specific guidelines or standards for proposed artwork. The mural could be removed in the future without damage to the structure. COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS C.6 - 3 Not reviewed. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends postponement to resolve outstanding questions and processes relating to this building and proposal. The pre-2002 façade of the Yaring’s Building was not yet 50 years old at the time that the Commission reviewed the modifications to the storefront and upper story, and the Congress Avenue historic district nomination did not call out the building as significant (there were no determinations of contributing or non-contributing structures in that nomination). The question now is whether the building retains sufficient integrity to relate its history so that it would be contributing to the historic district today. This building is between two historic landmarks: the Robinson-Rosner Building at 504 Congress Avenue to the south, and the Scarbrough Building to the north. The Commission should identify and evaluate any concerns about introducing a bold and colorful mural on this building as it potentially affects the context of the two adjacent historic landmark buildings as well as the context of the Congress Avenue Historic District. The applicant should consult with the staff of the Art in Public Places program for their input on this mural before the Commission renders a decision.
November 29, 2020 To the Austin Historic Landmark Commission, Chair and Commissioners: In August of 2020, we contracted to purchase 815 W. 11th Street with the intent of demolishing the structure and rebuilding with a structure that is compatible with the growing area around downtown. The zoning by the City of Austin allows for +/- 4400 SF. If the Code Next were approved, the zoning would allow up to 6600 SF. The zoning is for office use, which is what we intend for the property, consisting of our offices and maybe one other office tenant. Our business is a local consulting firm working 8-5 M-F, comparable to other uses on the street. When we were looking for a home for our office, we wanted to be in the downtown area, following the intent of the City of Austin to be more dense in the downtown area, thus less city sprawl and more accessible to public services and transportation. We put a contract on 815 W. 11th and discussed the need for a demolition permit with the Owner. Vivien agreed to sign applicable paperwork with the city to allow for the demolition permit. That is covered in our contract for purchase. We pursued the demolition permit with the understanding that if we could not obtain the permit, we would not be able to purchase the property. In order to apply for the demo permit, we discovered the city of Austin requires a clean tax certificate prior to placing the item on the HLC agenda. So, we asked for one from the TCAD. We found out that 3 years of taxes had not been paid. We spoke to Vivien about this and she did not have the funds to pay for the taxes. In good faith, we paid the taxes on her behalf so that we could be on the HLC agenda. We were under the impression that Vivien still supported our request for a demo permit. Our first hearing was postponed as staff requested more time to review. Durin the last HLC meeting, we discovered that Vivien submitted a rejection memo to the HLC opposing the demolition. We found this out just before the meeting. The demo permit was placed on Consent Agenda, but with her opposition (and assuming she was the applicant), the HLC pulled the item for discussion and then referred to the case to the ARC. We are …

BASIS FOR STAFF’S RECOMMENDATION: The request to change the land use on the future land use map from Single Family to Neighborhood Mixed Use is not compatible with the Goals, Objectives, and Recommendations of the neighborhood plan because the request is commercial encroachment into an established residential area, which the plan does not support. The property is located at the end of a cul-de-sac in an established residential area. Converting the single family home to an office use would be encroachment into a residential neighborhood. For more information on the proposed zoning of NO-MU-NP, please see the associated zoning case report C14-2020-0081. 2 NPA-2020-0021.02 2 of 44B-7 Planning Commission: November 24, 2020 LAND USE DESCRIPTIONS EXISTING LAND USE ON THE PROPERTY Single family - Detached or two family residential uses at typical urban and/or suburban densities. Purpose 1. Preserve the land use pattern and future viability of existing neighborhoods; 2. Encourage new infill development that continues existing neighborhood patterns of development; and 3.

ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE: C14-2020-0115 (Midtown Flats) DISTRICT: 7 ZONING FROM: NBG-CI-NP TO: NBG-WMU-NP ADDRESS: 2136 Rutland Drive and 10139 Metropolitan Drive SITE AREA: 3.386 acres (147,494 sq. ft.) PROPERTY OWNER: SL5 ATX Industrial, LP AGENT: City of Austin - Housing and Planning Department (Sherri Sirwaitis) CASE MANAGER: Sherri Sirwaitis (512-974-3057, sherri.sirwaitis@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends NBG-WMU-NP, North Burnet/Gateway-Warehouse Mixed-Use- Neighborhood Plan Combining District, zoning. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: November 24, 2020 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: December 10, 2020 ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 28B-9 C14-2020-0115 2 ISSUES: This is a City initiated case per Resolution No. 20200409-031. Please see Exhibit C. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is zoned NBG-CI-NP and is developed with two industrial warehouse buildings known as the Rutland Business Center that contain office, commercial and industrial uses. The lots to the north, south and east are also zoned NBG-CI-NP and are developed with industrial warehouse structures. The lots to the west, across Metropolitan Drive, are zoned NBG-WMU-NP and are developed with industrial warehouses that are used for storage and distribution (Rutland Distribution Center). Please see Exhibit D - Figure 1-2: North Burnet/Gateway (NBG) Zoning District Subdistrict Map. The owner is requesting NBG-WMU-NP, North Burnet/Gateway-Warehouse Mixed-Use-Neighborhood Plan Combining District, zoning to redevelop the site under consideration with office-mixed use. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. North Burnet/Gateway (NBG) district is the designation for an identified area of existing low density, auto-oriented commercial, warehouse, and industrial uses that is the subject of an approved master plan for redevelopment of the area into a higher density urban mixed-use neighborhood that is more pedestrian friendly and takes advantage of the links to commuter rail transit and the area's key position in the urban core. Warehouse Mixed-Use accommodates existing and new industrial warehouse uses and enables development of residential and local retail uses. Neighborhood Plan district denotes a tract located within the boundaries of an adopted neighborhood Plan. 2. The proposed zoning should promote consistency and orderly planning. The staff recommends the proposed NBG-WMU-NP zoning because the WMU subdistrict will permit the redevelopment of the property with a mixture of uses, including residential units. The proposed zoning is consistent with NBG-WMU-NP zoning to the west of this property, across Metropolitan Drive. The change in zoning will have has no impact on building height or density permitted, as …

ACTION: PHONE: 974-6454 ORDINANCE NUMBER: CITY COUNCIL DATE: December 10, 2020 ORDINANCE READINGS: 1ST 2ND 3RD CASE MANAGER: Steve Sadowsky NEIGHBORHOOD ORGANIZATION: Hyde Park Neighborhood Association BASIS FOR RECOMMENDATION: Architecture: While City Code does not allow a contributing building within a local historic district to be designated as a historic landmark for its architectural significance, the former Baker School is worthy of an architectural description as it reflects the work of three of the most prominent architects in Austin in the early- to mid-20th century.
