The Target parking lot is escalated above grade by 4’ so we were allowed an over all height of 31’ for this new pylon. • Location Issues: We had a location for the pylon however, when we went to dig the hole, there was an underground pipe that was not detected as it was on Targets property and not part of the underground utilities that is marked by the underground utility locator. • Variance Request: I would like to see if we can get an additional 10’ – 12’ of height approved. The location that would require this are within the tree line and would therefore need the height increase for the sign to be seen.

I Ama Zilker neighbor live at 904 Ethel St and am writing a letter of support in favor of Case # 2021-000085 BA for the property located at 1003 Kinney. The design is far superior than the ubiquitous Hardie plan structures in the neighborhood being erected by many spec builders and will help contribute, not detract to the neighborhood character. The existing structure is in poor condition. All buildings have a natural life.. The IRS limits the functional life of a building to 27.5 years. This particular structure is in disrepair and not economically feasible to be repaired. Every property owner deserves the right to replace their existing home. In this case, the zoning does not allow for reasonable use of the land. I think the Board is justified in approving the request because reasonable use is currently excluded. The property is unique to the area. I am aware of only 3 lots in Zilker that are less than 5750 square feet that are not exempted from variance by the age of the …

4901 Mirador Dr Variance Request Case Number: C15-2022-0022 Presenter: Frank Fuentes Variance Request To have a Front Yard setback of 30’ Required Front Yard Setback Land Development Code Section 25-2-492 Site Development Regulations for a Front Yard setback of 40’ for RR zoning Hardship Due to the slope of the lot and restrictions, it would be difficult to utilize the narrow allowed buildable space of the property without encroaching into the Water Quality Easement which covers more than 2/3 of the lot. Hardship Parcel is divided by the Austin ETJ and Austin LTD jurisdictions and is currently zoned as RR zoning, the spot zoning within the LTD has not been conclusively established. Hardship The majority of the 88 homes in the Barton Creek South subdivision and per the recorded design guidelines have followed a 30’ front set back created at the time of the plat. The Barton Creek South subdivision recorded guidelines set a 30’ setback for this lot. Area Character Surrounding homes, in both the LTD Jurisdiction and the ETJ Jurisdiction in the subdivision were built following the 30' front setback as shown in the BCS guidelines The majority of the subdivision is located within the Austin ETJ. The property is one of few located in Austin LTD. Hardship The Lot is split between the Austin LTD and ETJ jurisdictions. The Home was designed to utilize the Buildable area of the property as per the BCS guidelines Homes in the subdivision do not have the RR zoning and have utilized the 30' Setback. Community Support Signatures received in support of the change to a 30’ front setback. Community Support from Owner’s Association Conclusion The variance will allow the building of a home on the restricted section of the lot with the same setback requirements as followed by other homes built in this subdivision while still following the RR zoning.

Per the survey the entire lot stands at a total of 3,380 SF. This is probably one of the smallest lots existing in Austin. The owner is requesting to build a modest home for his family and only asking for leniency as far as the current SF3 lot size requirement and for a reasonable reduction of 15 feet from the standard front yard setback. In order to build a livable space for a single family, the additional square footage is undoubtably necessary. F-7/8-PRESENTATION HARDSHIP This substandard lot has always been used as a single family residence since the early 1940s. The original structures of a single family 480 SF home and 162 SF garage still exist. This particular lot runs along a side alley on the north side of lot also which has a 15 foot electrical easement. Per current building requirements and the Austin Energy Criteria Manual, this reduces the buildable area by an approximate 1,040 due to the newly adopted requirement by AE. F-7/9-PRESENTATION NOT GENERAL TO THE AREA A majority of the lots in this neighborhood are at or above minimum lot sizes per COA LDC. There are only a few small lots in the Holly Neighborhood plan …
