C15-2021-0033 221 Lessin Ln: I oppose the application for variance at 221 Lessin Ln, a condominium development across the street from my SF-3 property. Why have setback standards in place if they can be easily waived? I have been concerned about the Lessin Ln development during the application to Planning Commission & City Council for re-zoning from SF-3 to SF-6, and then the subsequent application to the Planning Commission to waive setbacks for water retention ponds. These events have happened virtually this past year with cumbersome mechanisms for citizens to participate. I am concerned about this current application to Board of Adjustments to waive setbacks from the city frontage streets, Krebs Ln and Lessin Ln. The applicant's argument for re-zoning and waivers consistently has been that they could be building much worse. I feel that the development would still thrive with one or two fewer units. I hope for institutional memory from city commissions and boards that the applicant is "promising" to preserve the neighborhood character and keep trees. Unfortunately I do not feel that city representatives are receptive to citizen input. Sincerely, Rebecca Sheller 209 Krebs Ln Austin, TX 78704 512-496-9939 CAUTION: This email was received at the City of Austin, from an EXTERNAL source.

Howard, j April 17, 2021 VIA EMAIL elaine.ramirez@autintexas.gov City of Austin Board of Adjustment Austin City Hall 301 W. 2nd Street Austin, Texas 78701 Board Members: Re: Letter of Support for Variance Application 5314 Avenue G, Austin, Texas 78751 BOA Case N. C15-2021-0041 I am writing on behalf of the North Loop Neighborhood Plan Contract Team (the “Planning Team”) in support of Mary Schuwerk’s and Nick Paglia’s Variance Application for 5314 Avenue G, Austin, Texas 78751 (the “Application”). As outlined in the Application, Ms. Schuwerk and Mr. Paglia are remodeling a portion of their home to, among other things, bring the home in line with safety and accessibility standards. To meet these standards, the finished floor elevation will need to be increased by 19” from the current finished floor elevation, 7” more than the 12” allowance in §25-2-963. Additionally, 5314 Avenue G is a unique and undersized lot, and the remodel will therefore result in impervious cover of approximately 47.7%, 2.7% more than the 45% permitted for SF-3-NP zoning under §25-2-492 but a 1% decrease from current impervious cover, along with continued encroachment of a setback on the back side of the lot. Ms. Schuwerk and Mr. Paglia have done an incredible job reaching out to and interfacing with the neighborhood regarding this project and have garnered the support of their neighbors along with the support of the North Loop Neighborhood Association and the Planning Team. Ms. Schuwerk and her architect presented to the Planning Team on April 12, 2021, and the Planning Team unanimously voted to support her Application in front of the Board of Adjustment. We strongly believe that current zoning regulations do not allow for reasonable use of the property by Ms. Schuwerk and Mr. Paglia and that the obvious hardship affecting 5314 Avenue G is unique to the property due to its configuration and unusually small lot size. The project will also have no effect on area character, and our understanding is that Ms. Schuwerk’s and Mr. Paglia’s immediate neighbors support the project fully. D-8/37 The Planning Team believes that the requested variance is entirely appropriate for this project and that the Application should be granted. We sincerely hope that the Board of Adjustment …

E-1/1 E-1/2 E-1/3 E-1/4 E-1/5 E-1/6 E-1/7 MEMORANDUM TO: Members of the Planning Commission FROM: Jerry Rusthoven, Assistant Director/Interim Lead Planning and Zoning Department DATE: May 22, 2020 SUBJECT: UNO Sign Regulations The Planning and Zoning Department is requesting the Commission initiate an amendment to the UNO ordinance to correct an inadvertent change made to the sign regulations in the ordinance. In November 2019 the City Council approved changes to the UNO ordinance. One of those changes was intended to address signs above the second story of a building. Those signs were required to be cut in or engraved into the structure of the building. If the name of a building were placed on the facade this made it physically difficult to change the name in the future. It was agreed by the stakeholders to remove this requirement. In making this change to the ordinance a mistake was made and the result is all illuminated signs were prohibited in the UNO area. This is not what was intended or agreed to by the stakeholders. Also, because the UNO sign regulations are also used in TODs and the North Burnet/Gateway Plan this mistake carries over to other areas. Staff is asking for the opportunity to correct the ordinance. We will be working with the same stakeholders involved in the November revisions. If you need additional information, please contact me by email or 512- .
