The University Neighborhood Overlay (including sign regulations) was revised by Austin City Council on November 14, 2019 (item 67). This was the conclusion of a process that included neighborhood groups, members of the development community, Codes and Ordinances joint committee, Planning Commission, and the City Council. The sign regulations were revised specifically so that developers would not have to seek a variance on signage when they built something new. And yet, this developer is not only seeking variances for 12 signs, but the signs have already been installed. To approve the variances, the applicant must show a hardship that prevents them from complying with the code or using the property as intended. This property has no hardships that would warrant ignoring the code. Please do not approve the requested sign variances and require the applicant to remove the signs that do not meet the code. Thank you for your attention and service. Betsy Greenberg CAUTION: This email was received at the City of Austin, from an EXTERNAL source.

Subject: Date: Importance: Re: Advanced Packet deadline for the Mon. 1/11/21 BOA mtg. Friday, December 18, 2020 3:52:10 PM High *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** From: Elaine, Thanks for reaching out with the reminder. However, once we sat down, replayed the last meeting and sat down and discussed spending more time and money presenting to this committee we have decided to not engage further, Our experience with the first meeting was extremely negative. 2 hours of our time was wasted waiting for technical issues to resolve where we had to pay fees for architects to sit and wait and then members of the committee were dismissive and aggressive from the start and our presenter didn’t even get a full 5 minutes. There were comments from other attendees within social channels regarding this specific meeting and the lack of professionalism demonstrated by specific participants. We did not contribute to these channels of communication in fear that it would further bias the participants against our case. Statements from committee members personalized our case. Individuals made comments regarding their distain for farmhouse modern design, how they personally had no back yard, how they personally live on a much smaller lot than ours, and how their backyards slope (not across their entire lot) and they don’t need a basement exemption. All of these had no bearing on our lot, neighborhood and case, they all only served only to demonstrate how they personalized the case. We have a 10K sq/ft pie shaped lot with a 20ft drop side-to-side, of which none of the committee members live on, so their personal living choices does not have impact on the merit of our case. Even in discussion about representing our case or gathering additional information members proactively stated that would not change their position and would be a waste of our time and theirs. As Austin residents of over 20 years, I can’t tell you how disappointed I am in the lack of professionalism and craft that was demonstrated in this meeting. We do appreciate the portion of the committee that behaved professionally, seemed open to listening to the merit of our case and tried to influence the room back to and open or at the very least clarifying position. But for the most part they were not the loudest voices in the room. There was one gentleman that three times said that based on …

City Council & City Manager, WHEREAS, the members of the Austin Board of Adjustment (“BOA”), agree that fees have increased to a point that many socioeconomically challenged families in the City have been priced out of the ability to have their due process rights met at the Board of Adjustment; and WHEREAS, the BOA would like to give a fair and equitable hearing to all citizens that believe they deserve a special exception to, or a hardship variance from, the land development code; and residents below the federal poverty limit who would be severely challenged or unable to pay the BOA current fee thereby preventing these citizens experiencing issues with Austin’s complex land development code from being able to come to our Board for relief; and WHEREAS, the metropolitan area of the City of Austin has approximately 11% of its WHEREAS, further complicating the situation there is a current public health crisis in the form of SARS-CoV-2 that has resulted in mass unemployment and loss of income; and WHEREAS, there has been a noticeable lack of applications from the working or middle class neighborhoods in recent BOA cases and the majority have been for issues related primarily to commercial development and large home/real estate developers; and WHEREAS, in the past the City of Austin has a history of providing financial assistance programs to assist its citizens and has been at the forefront of implementing policy that provides equity and access to government to all i.e. Austin Energy CAP etc.; and WHEREAS, it is the desire that the City Council and City Manager support a fee assistance program for the Board of Adjustments in which the Board fully understands that the current fee structure was intended to reflect the actual cost of services provided by staff within the City, the BOA would like to be clear that any fee assistance program should not result in changes to staffing, rather, that the BOA and the staff provide a public good that should be provided by and supported with tax dollars and fees collected by the city, rather than wholly paid for by socioeconomically challenged applicants; and WHEREAS, the staff that serves the BOA provides exemplary customer service and board support duties, and our city should be proud of the professionalism and knowledge provided by its staff to residents; and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT OF THE CITY …
