From: Sam Reicks < Date: Jun 23, 2020, 11:23 AM -0500 To: andrew.rivera@austintexas.gov Subject: Remarks on the rezoning of 5010 & 5102 Heflin lane The attempt to rezone this land is frustrating on many levels. I would like to speak vehemently against the rezoning of this lot for multiple reasons. 1. District 1 (this district) was specified in the 1928 Master plan as the “Negro District”… Throughout Austins horrible history of racism and redlining, black people were forced into east side neighborhoods, like this one. Now as the east-side including district 1 have become popular, those people who have been forced to live here, are now being forced to leave through gentrification. Building a development such as this one in this community will accelerate the rate of gentrification immensely pushing out more and more people of color who have spent generations building a community here because they weren’t allowed to anywhere else. 2. The rezoning of this lot has been attempted repeatedly in the past. At each attempt the neighborhood has spoken out against the rezoning. The developers are adamant to push this through in spite of the will of the community. The only reason I can understand that they do not stop is that they assume with enough effort and money they can override the will of the community. This decision needs to be made in the interest of the community and not because the applicant is incessant and can afford good lawyers. 3. This neighborhood is NOT in the center of Austin we are a little bit further out and enjoy the space and speed of living in a smaller neighborhood, with the scale of construction they are applying for, we will lose all of our green space and be packed in in a way that does not fit the neighborhood. 4. 2-3 blocks away is Rob-Scott st, where they’ve been working on a housing development for a decade or so. Progress has been slow as there hasn’t been an appetite for the new housing in this neighborhood. On top of that, with the current covid-19 epidemic there are questions about the future interest in dense-fill housing, now above all is not a time when increased density is needed. 5. Fort branch creek has a history of flooding, and many houses near it, including this site itself are in a flood zone. 1 of the biggest things that …
om: William Travis Sent: Tuesday, June 23, 2020 11:54 AM To: Rivera, Andrew <Andrew.Rivera@austintexas.gov> Subject: Zoning Change Request Case No. C14-2020-0048 -- 1509 Enfield Road *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Dear Mr. Rivera: Please add this email communication to the public comments presented to the City of Austin's Planning Commission in connection with the Commission's consideration of a zoning change request for the property at 1509 Enfield Road. My wife and I own the property at 1400 Marshall Lane, a single family residence on the corner of Marshall Lane and Palma Plaza. I oppose the proposed zoning change for the property at 1509 Enfield Road for all the reasons expressed by Mr. Barnhill, speaking on behalf of the Old West Austin Neighborhood Association. The Case Manager's comments in the Zoning Change Review Sheet refer to an existing real estate office at 1501 Enfield Road that already has Neighborhood Office (NO) zoning. I would emphasize that this is the only property on either side of Enfield Road between Parkway and Mopac that has NO zoning. Furthermore, in 2010 when the NO zoning was granted, the owner of 1501 agreed to very substantial limitations on the use of the property otherwise permitted by that zoning. The Case Manager describes those limitations on page 4 of the Review Sheet. Perhaps most significant, 1501 Enfield is a corner lot and automobile access for the office customers is only on the side street, Marshall Lane. It was argued in 2010 that if 1501 was granted the NO zoning it would start a trend, for additional zoning changes, that would eventually change the character of the neighborhood. That was certainly not the intent of anyone involved in that process and the Case Manager's comments should be read with that fact in mind. Thanks for your assistance in this matter.

BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AUSTIN: PART 1. Findings. Plan." (A) In 1979, the City Council adopted the "Austin Tomorrow Comprehensive (B) The Austin Tomorrow Comprehensive Plan contemplated the adoption of neighborhood plans. Article X, Section 5 of the City Charter authorizes the City Council to adopt by ordinance additional elements of a comprehensive plan that are necessary or desirable to establish and implement policies for growth, development, and beautification, including neighborhood, community, or area-wide plans. (C) In October 1998, the Old West Austin neighborhood was selected to work with the City of Austin to complete a neighborhood plan. The Old West Austin Neighborhood Plan followed a process first outlined by the Citizens' Planning Committee in 1995, and refined by the Ad Hoc Neighborhood Planning Committee in 1996. City Council endorsed this approach for the neighborhood planning in a 1997 resolution. This process mandated representation of all of the stakeholders hi the neighborhood and required active public outreach. During the planning process, the Old West Austin Neighborhood Planning Team gathered information and solicited public input through the following means: (1) neighborhood planning team meetings; (2) collection of existing data; (3) neighborhood inventory; (4) neighborhood survey; (5) neighborhood newsletter; (6) community-wide meetings; and (7) neighborhood ballot. Page 1 of3 (D) The Old West Austin Neighborhood Plan recommends action by the neighborhood association, the City, and by other agencies to preserve and improve the neighborhood.

Our neighborhood spoke in opposition to these upzonings with clarity at the Montopolis Negro School on Juneteenth: we welcome development that is in keeping with the single family history and culture of our neighborhood. These proposed zoning changes are about real estate speculation, plain and simple, and their enactment would adversely impact the integrity of our community by violating what makes and keeps it unique. Regarding the Missing Middle™ justification floating around in association with these zoning cases, there is a lot I could say, but I'll keep it short: even academia now concedes that in 2020 such neoliberal planning notions only help to perpetuate institutional racism. Our community would best benefit from truly bottom up development that allows families to remain in their homes and grow out of poverty, not by the zealous application of (properly trademarked) religious tomfoolery of dubious sponsorship masquerading as urban planning insight. Stated plainly, there is no "missing middle" justification for these zoning changes. Go apply them in neighborhoods that don't have a 33% poverty rate, or the highest concentration of industrial and commercial zoning of any planning area. Like at the Lions Municipal Golf Course, for instance. The zoning change requests that have been initiated are: 1. 508 Kemp St. 2. 1013 Montopolis Dr. 3. 107 Montopolis Dr. 3. 200 Montopolis Dr. 4. 6201 Clovis St. 5. 6206 Clovis St. 5. 301 Kemp St. 6. 6328 El Mirando St. Regards, flm

Central Austin Neighborhood Plan Advisory Committee (CANPAC) Case: C14-2019-0108, 2404 Rio Grande CANPAC unanimously supports the UAP (University Area Partners) recommendation against the zoning change proposed in this case. This zoning change would increase entitlements to the property without the neighborhood benefit of onsite affordable housing and a building following the neighborhood plan design guidelines. The applicant has not presented a project proposal, or a reason for the zoning change. CANPAC recommends the property be redeveloped under the UNO (University Neighborhood Overlay) which will allow the owner increased entitlements while providing the neighborhood benefit of onsite affordable housing and modern design guidelines. CANPAC is the city designated contact team for the West University Neighborhood Planning Area, which is where this property is located. UAP is a member organization of CANPAC.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS B.1 - 1 JUNE 22, 2020 C14H-1997-0008 NORWOOD HOUSE 1018 EDGECLIFF TERRACE PROPOSAL Restore main house. Add a terrace and new fenestration to the rear of the building. Reconstruct the historic teahouse gazebo. Add a new storage building and auxiliary function building to the site. Remodel landscape. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Main house: Most structural members will be repaired or replaced to retain the building’s original form. It will be clad in running-bond brick with sill course detailing; river rock and limestone accents throughout define the house’s exterior openings, sills, columns, and chimney. Masonry elements will match historic photographs and samples found on-site. The roof will be retiled with Ludowici clay shingles, with finish and color matching original samples. Window screen frames, doors, columns, lanterns, frieze boards, vents, and timber framing will be restored where possible and replaced in-kind where deteriorated beyond repair. Window screens will be replaced in-kind with non-reflective bronze screen. Wood window sashes will be replaced in-kind where deterioration precludes repair; as most of the original glazing is missing, it will be replaced with energy- efficient double glazing. Façade variations include: a) South: The main elevation will be rebuilt to match historic photographs of the building, with the addition of a brick and exposed concrete access ramp and exposed-concrete steps. b) East and west: Two windows will shift slightly from their original placement at the west elevation. c) North: Existing openings in the building envelope will be enlarged and replaced with aluminum-clad doors, designed to reflect the lighting pattern of the historic windows, leading onto a simple concrete terrace. There is no access to the building from the river to the north, and the view from the lake will be obscured. The rear elevation will not be visible from the street. 2) Teahouse: The teahouse, a simple brick-columned structure with attached trellis, exposed rafter tails, and tiled hipped roof, will be constructed on the site of the historic teahouse. 3) Storage and support buildings: A CMU storage building with flat roof and fixed-pane windows will be set back from the main house. It is connected to the new auxiliary building by a walkway covered with a steel drill-stem pipe trellis. The auxiliary building, constructed with matching CMU and fenestration, features small skylights and solar panels on its flat roof. 4) Site work: The proposed landscaping plan for the event …
