D-4/1-LATE BACKUP To whom this may concern, I am writing as an owner within RobRoy on the Lake and nearby neighbor to the Goodwins at 1201 N. Weston Ln. The Goodwins have always been a good steward of the neighborhood as well as Lake Austin. Please consider this letter my support in favor of a variance to the impervious coverage, (“IC”), issue, which was unknowingly created several decades ago. After further research into the applicant’s plans for the creation of a rain garden, I believe this a reasonable compromise within the intent of the IC regulations and is more than a net gain for the city and its water source. Should you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me via email at or via cell at 432-‐638-‐4200. Respectfully, Nick McClure 1201 N. Weston Ln. D-4/2-LATE BACKUP November 9, 2020 City of Austin Planning & Development Services PO Box 1088 Austin, TX 78701 Ladies and Gentlemen, Re: 1209 North Weston Lane; June Goodwin, Property Owner/Applicant The purpose of this letter is to provide you information regarding the application of regulatory authority in the Rob Roy on the Lake, Section 1 Subdivision. This subdivision application was filed in 1982 and the plat was recorded in 1983. Homes began being built in late 1983and early 1984. There are 83 lots in the subdivision. I was President of the HOA for two terms in the late 90’s. Thereafter, I assumed the role of Chair of the Architectural Control Committee, a position that I held until I sold my house in the subdivision in 2014. I was very familiar with the permitting status of new home and remodel home construction during that period. There are approximately 13 lots in the subdivision with frontage on Lake Austin. There are several other lots up the hill from the dead end of Weston Lane that, while not being on Lake Austin, are within 500′ of the 504.9 contour line which historically was the limit of the City’s jurisdiction. None of the original homes built on Lake Austin were built with City building permits. Furthermore, the City of Austin Water and Wastewater Utility did not review and approve on-site sewage facility permits for these homes. This was done by Travis County. I am now aware that the City of Austin adopted a limited purpose annexation in May of 1982 that extended 500′ from the 504.9 …

E-4 C15-2020-0069 LATE BACKUP — original pdf
From: To: Subject: Date: peggy pevateaux Ramirez, Elaine Case C15-2020-0069 1230 Rockcliff Rd Friday, December 11, 2020 3:32:11 PM *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Elaine, one of my neighbors said she thinks case C15-2020-0069 is to be reconsidered on Mon. Dec. 14. We still oppose the variance. I was told that the variance also requested cutting down a tree. I want you to know that the applicant has already cut down trees on that property. This was done as soon as they had a contract on the property. Our main concern is the variance would allow for a larger house to be built. We do not believe this will allow enough land for a septic field that is up to code. The house plans the previous owner had developed proposed a cess pit in place of a septic. This piece of property is surrounded on 3 sides with Lake Austin water. This could be a health issue. When this case had it’s first hearing, I read the reasons given for opposing it. Perhaps the most compelling reason was offered by a person who uses that waterway as access for boating. He said when the boats from the slew enter the main body of the lake, their entrance is already obscured as the shoreline curves there and it’s hard for boaters to see emerging boats. Allowing the variance would obscure line of sight even further. It’s a safety issue. We think the variance should not be allowed based on safety and health concerns. Thank you. John and Peggy Pevateaux CAUTION: This email was received at the City of Austin, from an EXTERNAL source. Please use caution when clicking links or opening attachments.
