Describe the area and individuals impacted by this COVID-19 pandemic. Provide information and data (quantitative and qualitative) on the estimated number of persons and households impacted by this COVID- 19 pandemic and on the impact of the pandemic to the families and the community by city and county. Types of information to include, but not be limited to, the following: city/cities, zip codes, description of the neighborhoods (e.g., primarily low-income, availability of public facilities and social service agencies, etc.), and demographic information on the households/individuals (e.g., income, racial make-up, indirect damage such as loss of job, education, housing etc.). Data and information gathered can include statistics, newspaper articles, news stories, surveys, interviews, data from 211 or other organization’s data on COVID- 19 needs. Eligible entities will be required to maintain documentation for monitoring purposes. This spring 2020 the global Covid-19 pandemic unsettled all segments of society. The social and economic consequences have been disastrous for a significant number of individuals in the City of Austin and Travis County area. In 2015 Travis County indicators showed a decline in the poverty rate in the urban area of Austin while outlying areas continued to face the challenges of minimal economic and social opportunities. The COVID 19 pandemic’s impact has brought the decline of poverty in Travis County to a halt and has now impacted all …
From: Amanda Willard Sent: Friday, June 05, 2020 1:16 AM To: Chaffin, Heather <Heather.Chaffin@austintexas.gov> Cc: Subject: C14-2020-0022 5010 & 5102 Heflin Lane *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** This email is written in protest of the requested zoning change from SF-4A-NP to SF-6-NP. Our area is already experiencing the adverse impact of increased development. While COVID-19 has temporarily reduced traffic across our city, under normal circumstances, the congestion on Webberville and Heflin during peak times has increased to a level that impacts my family's commute times and complicates navigating our own neighborhood. For example, attempting to turn north from Heflin Lane onto Webberville is challenge. Traffic traveling south on Webberville travels at a speed greater than the posted limit (even with the speed bumps in place) and any car parked in the bike lane along Webberville creates a situation that makes it too dangerous to walk around my own neighborhood with my children at certain times of the day. Any increase in density will strain our already congested roadways. Of substantial concern, the increased impervious cover will exacerbate flooding in our neighborhood. Since purchasing our home in 2012, the number of times our house has flooded has increased steadily as development in the area has increased. We have already replaced floors and had to have a professional install an expensive drainage system for our house. I recognize that some change is inevitable. When evaluating what changes are reasonable, I ask that you please keep in mind that our wonderful neighborhood still has homes occupied by the original owners who purchased their properties in the 60’s and have already experienced substantial changes. To create a situation that forces any of our neighbors to make costly upgrades to their properties to mitigate the impact of surrounding developments or to be forced to sale their homes because they can not afford the upgrades, is not reasonable. The increased density of proposed projects like the one at MLK & Tannehill and directly across the street at the intersection of Webberville and Stone Gate will make it impossible to safely navigate traffic and difficult for some of us to maintain our homes. Each one of these projects, if considered individually, may seem reasonable but together and combined with all of the rapid development East Austin is experiencing, will negatively impact the safety, functionality and affordability of the Stone Gate neighborhood. I appreciate you seriously …

I understand. I only wanted to reiterate the first point in the neutral letter we provided, which was that the owner claimed intent to build affordable housing but was unwilling to commit to that via Restrictive Covenant. I wanted to urge Planning Commission to push back on that and explore whatever legal mechanisms are available to attach affordability to their approval.

From: To: Subject: Date: Ramirez, Elaine FW: 1401 East Third Monday, May 11, 2020 2:34:48 PM My original email to City staff questioning the construction at 1401 E 3rd. From: Sent: Wednesday, January 24, 2018 1:02 PM To: DSD Help Cc: Subject: 1401 East Third This message is from Jeff Thompson. [ bc-jeffrey.thompson@austintexas.gov ] I sit on the Planning Commission and one of the residents in my district asked me about a new house going up at 1401 E 3rd Street, 78702. It appears to have approved plans for less than the required set back, but there was never a BOA hearing or other variance. Can you please explain how they are allowed to build so close to another house and within the set back?

You can see from the pictures that the development is still in early stages. The response is : inspector will notice. To be told now that the inspector didn’t raise the issue early enough is frustrating.
