ITEM05/8-PRESENTATION ITEM05/9-PRESENTATION BOA Required Findings 1. The requirement does not allow for a reasonable use of property; Non-standard shape of the site and the narrow southern lot. Buffer removes approximately 31% of the site area from development. 2. The hardship for which the variance is requested is unique to the property and is not generally characteristic of the area in which the property is located; S. 1st Street is a Core Transit Corridor. Neighboring S. 1st properties with adjacent single-family zoning have lot widths greater than 100’ for any future redevelopment. 3. Development under the variance does not: • Alter the character of the area adjacent to the property; S. 1st Commercial & Mixed-Use Corridor with minimal buffers to Single Family Residences • Impair the use of adjacent property that is developed in compliance with the City requirements; o Project designed with screening and adjacent use in mind. • Impair the purposes of the regulations of the zoning district in which the property is located. ETOD – Project enhances transit supportive uses and increases housing options. 1010 ITEM05/10-PRESENTATION ITEM05/11-PRESENTATION ITEM05/12-PRESENTATION ITEM05/13-PRESENTATION ITEM05/14-PRESENTATION ITEM05/15-PRESENTATION ITEM05/16-PRESENTATION

2003 Arpdale Street BOA Presentation NOVEMBER 2024 ITEM07/1-PRESENTATION Variance Summary § 25-2-492 – Decrease the minimum side setback from 5 ft to 4 ft § 25-2-773 - Decrease the minimum lot size from 5,750 square feet to 5,500 square feet - Decrease the minimum rear setback from 10 ft to 5.5 ft Below is a site plan of the building which has been in its current form since the early 1990’s 2 ITEM07/2-PRESENTATION Unique Circumstances and Characteristics Reliance on TCAD • Owner relied on TCAD when purchasing the home. • TCAD reports the site area as 5,752.90 sf 3 ITEM07/3-PRESENTATION Unique Circumstances and Characteristics Minor Reduction in Lot Size Converted in 1990’s • Most properties in the subdivision were platted in the forties or fifties at 6,000 square feet or more, and so they were unaffected when the minimum lot size of 5750 sf went into effect. It appears, however, that sometime after the house and garage were built, a portion of this lot was sold. The resulting deficiency was not recognized until about 5 years ago. This circumstance is unique within this area. • Not all lots in the area have a structure built in 1949 that was converted to an accessory dwelling in the early 1990’s. Poor Record Keeping and Enforcement • Poor construction record keeping and poor permit enforcement results in the owner inheriting an unpermitted accessory dwelling Setbacks have been in place since 1949 • The structure and foundation have been in place since 1949, so the setback can not change. 4 ITEM07/4-PRESENTATION Support for Approval Neighborhood Support (verified by signatures) • Over 80% of the owners within 300 ft are in support of the variance • No recorded problems or complaints • Neighbors felt like this variance is a non-issue since this request involves an existing structure already being used as an ADU. • They do not feel like this ADU should be subject to regulations intended to limit the amount of new construction and conversions in the area. 5 ITEM07/5-PRESENTATION Support for Approval No History of Issues • No complaints against the house or ADU have been recorded for over 64 years • Verified by open record request Existing Structure Increases Affordable Housing Stock • Site has been in its current configuration for over 30 years • Several other houses in the Rabb Inwood subdivision have ADU’s • Adding this to the housing stock …

Bouldin Creek Neighborhood Association November 6, 2024 RE: Board of Adjustments Public Hearing - Nov 14, 2024 ITEM02: C15-2024-0028, Project Address: 1406 S 3rd St. (District 9) Variance Request: decrease the minimum front yard setback from 15 feet (required) to 5 feet (requested). The Bouldin Creek Neighborhood Association (BCNA) recommends that the applicant utilize setback averaging to determine if a variance is needed. The BCNA zoning committee met with the applicant on October 14, 2024, to discuss the case and provided our feedback to the applicant. Setback Averaging is described under § Title 25, Chapter 25-2, Subchapter F, Article 2, 2.3 FRONT YARD SETBACK The BCNA has considered the applicant's case and supports the use of setback averaging to accomplish the decrease in the minimum front yard setback requested by the applicant. Sincerely, President Bouldin Creek Neighborhood Association, P.O. Box 3683, Austin, Texas 78764 ITEM02/1-LATE BACKUP

Reasonable Use: The applicant then builds on top of their unfounded hardship claim to say that the “unique” property has an “irregular shape” and is “exceptionally narrow,” and thus deprives the owner of “reasonable use”. Please reference the above reasoning on how the property is neither an irregular shape nor is it exceptionally narrow. Again, the owner knowledgably purchased this standard-size Cumberland property alongside the two S 1st properties for his development. This, yet again, is a self-imposed limitation the owner was aware of when purchasing and designing his commercial development. 3. Area Character: In responding to the area character criterion, the applicant does not adequately address how their 118 unit, 87 foot tall multifamily design may actually impact the neighborhood. If the Board grants the variances, the extended height, added volume of units, lack of parking per unit, and proximity to single-family homes will have a very clear negative impact on the single-family neighbors. The applicant makes two main claims regarding this criterion: a) that there are other multifamily developments along S 1st, and b) there are other commercial buildings with less than 25 foot rear setbacks in the area. In addressing a), the applicant is correct that there are multifamily developments along S 1st, but it is important to note that those developments are all 5 levels or fewer. They appear to maintain the 60 foot code-required setback height from the single-family homes in the area. As for b), there are several commercial businesses in the area which impinge on the 25 foot rear setback, however, all of those businesses are one level or less. Their impact on the adjacent single-family homes is minimal due to their low height. The setback proposed is far too close to 2613 S 2nd St and other adjacent houses and without the proper setback, drainage and potential flooding is a concern. The proposed development will be so tall it will tower over the single-family homes on S 2nd and S 3rd Streets and “diminish privacy”. The added units provided by the added height will “increase traffic on adjacent streets,” and the lack of parking per unit will certainly make S 2nd St, S 3rd St, and Stacy Ln the de facto 24h/7days/week permanent …

ITEM06/1-LATE BACKUP Steering Committee Members: Christopher Hurst AIA, Chair Paula Hern, Meghan Yancy, Claudette Kazzoun, Rob Kish, Steve Amos, Germaine Curry, Margaret Sullivan, William Osborn, David Schofman, Shawn Shillington, Erika Tatum November 13, 2024 RE: C15-2024-0041 – Thomas M. Schiefer and Meghann Elena Rosales – 1607 West 10th St.- Agenda Item 6 Dear Chair Cohen and BOA Members, I hope this letter finds you well. The Old West Austin Neighborhood Association supports the variance request to allow an increase in impervious coverage at 1607 W 10th Street. This property has been historically designated through the City as the Mary Baylor House and it reflects the dedication the owners have put into preserving its history. Thomas and Meghann, the owners, rebuilt this home with their own hands, along with the help of friends and the local community—no contractors, no professionals—just them, much like the original construction of the house itself. The goal with the proposed addition is simple and in line with the ongoing commitment to both the history of the home and the OWANA neighborhood. The intent is to build a small rectangular extension off the back of the house that mirrors the width and height of the original structure. This design will ensure that the addition does not take away from or overwhelm the original house, preserving the character and historical significance of the property. Importantly, none of the original house will be altered or demolished, except for a minor adjustment to the back eaves. The materials will be complementary to the original style, ensuring the extension blends seamlessly without replicating the original architecture. The requested variance is for an increase in impervious coverage, from the current 45% to 58%. This increase is necessary due to a few unique hardships tied to the history of the property and recent changes in zoning regulations: 1. Deed History: A portion of the property was dedicated to the City in the past to expand the road, which reduced our total allowable building area. 2. Neighbor Encroachment: Portions of the neighbor's property encroach onto the lot, effectively taking approximately 202 square feet from the total allowable building area, further restricting the space for the proposed extension. 3. Zoning Amendments: The Home 2 zoning amendments recently enacted removed the need for a variance in setbacks and building cover, but unfortunately, these amendments now limit the impervious cover to just 45%. OWANA’s neighborhood plan, which …

ITEM07/1-LATE BACKUP_OPPOSITION ITEM07/2-LATE BACKUP_OPPOSITION November 8, 2024 To: Board of Adjustment, City of Austin Re: Case C15-2024-0042 (2003 Arpdale), Nov. 14, 2024, Agenda item 7 Dear Chair and Board Members, On August 9, 2021, the Board of Adjustment granted a lot-size variance at 2003 Arpdale, the same variance being requested today. The hearing in 2021 followed the administrative resolution of years of work-without-permit issues and code violations, including confirmation that the accessory structure does not require variances from the side and rear setbacks. Since the 2021 variance, several permits have been issued at this address, and some of them are still active. Unless the applicant can show that a department director has reversed the previous decisions or somehow overturned the Board of Adjustment variance, there is no reason to rehear the case. In short, the applicant has not been denied reasonable use. to submit a formal appeal of a written administrative decision or to challenge the department’s code interpretation. Simply re-applying for a variance that has already been granted makes no sense. Perhaps the Board can postpone the case and request clarification from the department director. size variance granted in August 2021; the first, on page 3, is from myself on behalf of the Zilker Neighborhood Association, and the other, on page 6, is from Jeff Jack, a former member of the Board of Adjustment. To summarize, regarding the setbacks: City of Austin, clarifying that a side yard setback variance is not required at 2003 Arpdale. In 2019 I received the following e-mail from Susan Barr, the residential plans examiner for the Attached are two letters explaining the intricacies of this case and the justification for the lot- If the department director has reversed the previous decisions, the applicant’s remedy would be From: Barr, Susan [mailto:Susan.Barr@austintexas.gov] Sent: Monday, May 13, 2019 9:54 AM To: latherton Cc: Dave Piper; 'Jeff Jack'; Gonzales, Rodney Subject: RE: 2003 Arpdale Appeal of BP #17-074166 Dear Ms. Atherton, Please keep me posted on the results of the Zilker Neighborhood Association discussion. In regards to the side yard setback, structures that were permitted in the distant past that do not meet current yard setbacks are considered legal, non-complying. Since a permit for the garage was found, it’s distance of 4.4’ from the side property line is legal and does not require a special exception. Best Regards, Susan It was also determined that no variance is required …
