HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION Applications for Demolition and Relocation Permits October 7, 2026 PR-2026-075085; GF-2026-111431 1508 Canterbury Street 20 – 1 Proposal Partially demolish and construct an addition to a ca. 1903 house. Project Specifications Remodel and add a second story. Add a covered deck atop the second story. Replace existing windows, replace siding with stucco, and remove and replace porch. Architecture One-story National Folk cottage with full-width porch supported by turned posts, side-gabled roof, symmetrical wood-trimmed windows, and horizontal wood siding. Research The house at 1508 Canterbury was constructed around 1903. Its first owner-occupants were the family of Charles H. Alhardt, a grocer who also owned and operated the Lone Star Yeast Company. Around 1910, Alhardt sold the house and it became a rental property with relatively high turnover until it was purchased by Eulalio and Reinalda Saldana around 1918. Though Eulalio Saldana died shortly after, his widow remained in the home for the next ten years. After Mrs. Saldana sold the house, it again became a rental property, hosting a variety of working-class tenants including waiters, a concrete finisher, a painter, and students. Pete and Esther Martinez bought the home in the early 1950s, and remained there for at least a decade. Pete Martinez was a plasterer, while Esther Martinez worked at the Casa Blanca Café. Design Standards The City of Austin’s Historic Design Standards (March 2021) are based on the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and are used to evaluate projects at potential historic landmarks. Staff have evaluated the property and determined that it does not meet the applicable standards for alterations or residential additions, as the proposed modifications are so extreme as to equate to total demolition when evaluated cumulatively: the proposed project removes almost all historic fabric from the existing 123-year-old house and adds second and third floors that entirely overwhelm the original. Department Comments This item first appears on the October 7, 2026 agenda of the Historic Landmark Commission. The Commission’s 75- day timeline for action will elapse on December 21, 2026. Property Evaluation The 2016 East Austin survey lists the property as contributing to potential local and National Register districts. Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain integrity. 3) Properties must meet two criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2-352). Staff have evaluated the property and determined that it does not meet …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION Applications for Demolition and Relocation Permits October 7, 2026 PR-2025-153753; GF-2026-120967 908 W. Gibson Street 21 – 1 Proposal Demolish a ca. 1938 house and garage. Architecture One-story bungalow with horizontal wood siding, a side-gabled roof, and a partial-width porch beneath a gablet supported by iron scrollwork columns. Research The house at 908 W. Gibson Street was constructed around 1938 by South Austin developer Jacob Bauerle. Though archival records of the property’s history are scarce, city directories show that it was occupied first by several short- term renters, and then by Harold and Alvina Darenberger, beginning in the late 1940s. Harold Darenberger worked as a driver for the Brown Express company. Department Comments This item first appears on the October 7, 2026 agenda of the Historic Landmark Commission. The Commission’s 75- day timeline for action will elapse on December 21, 2026. Property Evaluation The 2016 Bouldin Creek Neighborhood survey lists the property as a medium priority and contributing to a potential historic district. Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain integrity. 3) Properties must meet two criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2-352). Staff have evaluated the property and determined that it does not meet two criteria for landmark designation: a. Architecture. The building is a good example of a vernacular bungalow. The front entryway may have been altered from a double to a single door, but no photographic evidence or Sanborn maps of the property were available to verity. b. Historical association. The property does not appear to have significant historical associations. c. Archaeology. The property was not evaluated for its potential to yield significant data concerning the human history or prehistory of the region. d. Community value. The property does not possess a unique location, physical characteristic, or significant feature that contributes to the character, image, or cultural identity of the city, the neighborhood, or a particular demographic group. e. Landscape feature. The property is not a significant natural or designed landscape with artistic, aesthetic, cultural, or historical value to the city. Staff Recommendation Encourage rehabilitation and adaptive reuse, relocation, or deconstruction and salvage over demolition, but approve the demolition permit application upon completion of a City of Austin Documentation.

Architecture One-story bungalow with asymmetrical gables atop inset corner porch, horizontal wood siding, and 1:1 wood windows. Research Joseph H. Marvels and Nannie Allen married in 1896. Joseph Marvels worked as a driver and express courier, establishing a business with several partners shortly after building a house on the property at 1009 E. 13th Street in 1906. Nannie worked on improving the property over the years: in 1938, she appears to have had the original 1906 building moved to the rear of their lot and replaced with the house that stands today. The Marvels moved into the new house and sold the rear house to Maggie Jackson in 1945. She added onto the front house that same year, and commissioned a second addition in 1957. After her husband’s death in 1950, she worked as a maid and rented out rooms in her house to make ends meet. She remained there until her own death in 1968.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION Applications for Demolition and Relocation Permits October 7, 2026 PR-2026-110851; GF-2026-118223 2705 E. 2nd Street 23 – 1 Proposal Demolish a pre-1898 house moved onto the lot in 1949 from 2805 Nueces Street. Architecture One-story wing-and-gable house with horizontal siding, 1:1 windows, and double front doors. A two-story addition has been constructed at the rear of the house. Research The main portion of the house at 2705 E. 2nd Street was built during or before 1898 at 2805 Nueces Street. Its earliest occupants appear to have been relatively short-term renters. The first long-term owners, Kate and Rufus Smith, began renting out rooms to UT students during the 1920s and 1930s; by 1926 it was described as a “rooming house” in the Austin Statesman.1 In the late 1930s, they sold the home to dressmaker Bernice Cluck, who supplemented her income as a seamstress by greatly expanding the rental operation. One of Mrs. Cluck’s longer-term tenants was Charles B. Normann, notable Texas artist and director of the Texas School of Fine Arts. In 1939, Normann even operated an art store with business partner and future Assistant Attorney General Joe Fultz2 from the house at 2805 Nueces Street. In 1946, Bernice Cluck sold the property to Fultz. Frank C. Hernandez purchased and moved the house to its current location on E. 2nd Street in 1949. With the Hernandez family, it returned to its original use as a single-family home. They constructed an addition to the rear of the building in 1956, and it remained in the family for 77 years until it was sold in July of 2026.3 Department Comments This item first appears on the October 7, 2026 agenda of the Historic Landmark Commission.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION Applications for Demolition and Relocation Permits October 7, 2026 PR-2026-113688, GF-2026-121921 PR-2026-113706, GF-2026-122065 800-801 W. 34th Street 24 – 1 Proposal Demolish a ca. 1965 office building, a ca. 1975 office building, and the connecting skybridge. Architecture 801 W. 34th Street was built in 1965 as a medical clinic by Wilson, Morris, Crain & Anderson. This two-story Mid- century Modern building features New Formalism details such as large-aggregate concrete pilasters, brick, and ceramic tile exterior cladding, fixed metal windows with transoms, and a flat cantilevered roof. “The new building contains 10,700 square feet of space on the ground floor, with additional basement space of 6,000 square feet, and is planned for a future second floor,” exposits the Austin American. The article further describes the building as follows: A unique feature of this clinic is its shape, a Greek cross form with an open landscaped court in the center. The court contains a fountain and an unusual design of plants and trees and is surrounded by glass enclosed corridors, waiting areas and nurses’ stations. The exterior of the building is of pre-cast concrete in panels with vertical ribs; the exposed aggregate texture recalls in color and texture the natural palette of Austin and the Southwest. The forward wing, toward 34th Street, contains the reception lobby, walls of which are almost entirely glass. East of the building is parking area for 75 cars.1 The design combination of vertical pilasters, exposed-aggregate concrete, and monolithic massing is a unique example of a transition piece between the New Formalist movement of the early-to-mid-1960s in Austin and the Brutalist sensibilities of the late 1960s and 1970s. Anderson, a famed Houston modernist, was a pioneer of exposed- aggregate concrete in Modern design; his work on the 1969 Houston Post building, the Austin American-Statesman Building, and the 1977 Frank Erwin Center further expand on themes of monolithic design and planar concrete.2, As a firm, Wilson, Morris, Crain & Anderson collaborated on the construction of the Houston Astrodome, the world’s largest self-supporting dome at the time of its construction in 1965—the same year this building debuted.3 The stone-and-stucco addition at the northeast elevation of Austin Diagnostic Clinic was constructed by the firm in 1971. “Less than seven years after opening its new facilities at 801 West 34th,” notes the Statesman, “the Austin Diagnostic Clinic has added a second story and a three-story wing…the interior open landscaped …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION Applications for Permits in National Register Historic Districts September 2, 2026 PR-2026-053670 Travis Heights-Fairview Park Historic District 1109 Travis Heights Boulevard 6 – 1 Proposal Demolish a ca. 1920 house. Architecture This American Foursquare house with Prairie School stylistic influences was constructed around 1920. The two- story house has a low-pitched hipped roof with broad overhangs. The full-width, hipped-roof porch has a long, open span supported at the corners by large square columns. The second floor had recessed corners that been infilled and converted to interior space. Much of the house has been covered with aluminum siding. Wood windows appear throughout the building, with larger, multi-lite fixtures appearing at the front elevation and simpler 1-over-1 units more common at the sides and rear. Research Early owners of this ca. 1920 house were Elmer & Cora Young. E. E. Young was co-owner of an automotive dealership, Hart & Young, Willys-Knight and Overland Austin Agency; he later bought out his partner and continued operation under his name. He served as president of the local automobile dealers’ association. Shortly before his death in 1928, Young became secretary of the Stacy Realty Company, developer of the Travis Heights neighborhood. Later owners included Charles & Katherine Brunner, who owned the house from 1929 until 1947. Charles Brunner operated a jewelry business on East Sixth St. beginning in the late 1890s. After his death in 1933, Katherine Brunner continued to run the jewelry store for another ten years. It appears that she leased out the house following her husband’s death but moved back in around 1941. In the 1950s, the house was occupied by Robert B. and Gwendolyn Hill. Robert Hill was a foreman at the Calcasieu Lumber Company. Department Comments A demolition permit for this property was originally referred to HLC in July 2019 (HDP-2019-0379), and the case was subsequently withdrawn. Meeting minutes are available here: https://services.austintexas.gov/edims/document.cfm?id=325930. A demolition application for the garage at the rear of the property was submitted in 2024 (PR-2024-055675), but this was later withdrawn upon the subsequent owner’s purchase of the property. This property also attended the January 15, 2025 Architectural Review Committee meeting to discuss a potential remodel, though no permit application was submitted for this scope of work. Documentation, including agendas and backup materials, for the three previous applications can be found in backup attached to this case. Per city code § 25-11-213 (G)(4), the …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION Applications for Demolition and Relocation Permits September 2, 2026 PR-2026-086869; GF-2026-090464 1005 E. 13th Street 15 – 1 Proposal Demolish a ca. 1910 house. Architecture This wide, single-story house was built with National Folk elements and features an inset porch at the northeast corner. The porch is supported by a single metal support structure in the front corner which is attached to a short metal rail. The front door is set at the rear of the porch, next to a single-hung window. A tripartite window assembly is present at the other half of the front façade, surrounded by ample wood trim painted blue. Narrow wood siding clads the entire house and, while sagging in some areas, is overall in repairable condition. Due to the width of the house, the moderately pitched hipped roof form visually dominates over the property. It is clad in composition shingle and features a rectangular dormer at the front, which itself is topped with a hipped roof assembly. The foundation is pier and beam. Research The longtime owner of this property upon construction was Henry Williams, who worked various roles as a fireman, porter, farmer, and oil mill worker. By 1918, he lived with his wife Eliza Williams, and the two raised a family at the house. In 1926, Henry Williams was shot in rural Travis County and recovered, and in 1930, he was again injured as a result of a wind storm while working at an oil mill. After his death around 1944, Eliza Williams remained at the address until at least 1949, after which the property was purchased by Abe & Bobbie Smith, who had at least one child while living at the property. Department Comments This application will time out on October 19, 2026. Property Evaluation The 2016 East Austin historic resource survey lists the property as eligible as a local landmark as well as contributing to a potential local or National Register district. Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain moderate-to-high integrity. 3) Properties must meet two criteria for landmark designation (LDC §25-2-352). Staff has evaluated the property and determined that it does not meet two criteria for landmark designation: a. Architecture. The building is a good example of surviving National Folk architecture in this area of the city, and is notable for its large size and overall …

Applicant Response to Staff Comments 2410 E. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard HR-2026-106327 — Rogers Washington Holy Cross Historic District Historic Landmark Commission — October 7, 2026 We appreciate Staff’s review and the conclusion that the proposed project “mostly meets the applicable standards.” 2026 1007 HLC Report 2410 EMLK The following information is provided to clarify several items identified in the Staff Report and to respectfully request that the project be allowed to proceed without an additional month of delay. 2. Lot Configuration The property at 2410 E. MLK Jr. Boulevard has not been newly subdivided as part of this project. The property is identified as Lot 2 of the recorded Holy Cross Heights subdivision plat, recorded November 23, 1956, when Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard was still known as East 19th Street. (Page 5) Accordingly, we request clarification or correction of the Staff Report statement that the subject property “was created as a result of subdividing 2406 E. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd.” 2026 1007 HLC Report 2410 EMLK 8.1 Orientation, Setbacks and Height The proposed buildings comply with the district’s 27-foot maximum height. The actual building height is approximately 23'-9". Because of the natural slope of the property and necessary drainage considerations, the calculated overall height from average grade is approximately 25'-6", still below the 27-foot maximum referenced in the Staff Report. Staff specifically requested verification of compliance with that height limit. 2026 1007 HLC Report 2410 EMLK The front steps and covered stoop are approximately 26 inches above finished grade, responding to site drainage while maintaining an appropriately scaled entrance along MLK. 8.2 Design and Style In response to concerns regarding the vertical character of the front building, the front gable plate height of Building 1 has been lowered to reduce the perceived vertical mass. Page 1 of 8 The roof pitch is intentional. The steeper roof allows the interior ceiling to vault while maintaining the reduced exterior wall height. It also keeps the overall building height comfortably below the district maximum. The Staff Report acknowledges that the front-facing gable is appropriate given the width of the buildings and further finds that the overall materials and fenestration are appropriate. 2026 1007 HLC Report 2410 EMLK The design should also be considered within the context of more recent construction in this immediate portion of the district. Comparable two-unit and residential development have occurred nearby since approximately 2016, including: …

Steering Committee Members: Stephen L. Amos, Chair Mark Ashby, Jeff Callahan, Scott Campbell, Marc Carlson, Hunter Coleman, Evelyn Fujimoto, Adrienne Goldsberry, Nick Mehl, William Osborn, Charlie Rice, Paul Shattuck, Shawn Shillington October 4, 2026 RE: SP-2026-035365; HR-2026-070009 - 611 West Lynn Street - West Line National Register Historic District - Item 11 Dear Chair Heimsath and Commissioners, The OWANA Zoning Committee has continued its review of the proposed eight-unit development at 611 West Lynn following the Historic Landmark Commission’s decision to postpone the hearing until this coming Wednesday, October 7th. Since the last hearing, the Zoning Committee met with the developer and architect to discuss the concerns raised in our previous letter and explore whether the project could be modified to better respond to the immediate historic context of West Lynn. We appreciate the applicant’s willingness to continue the conversation and consider ways the project might be adjusted. Our discussion focused particularly on the relationship of the proposed building to the front-yard setbacks established by the historic homes along West Lynn. See OWANA setback guidelines below. We believe this relationship is important to the character of the block and that the project would benefit from a meaningful shift toward the established setback pattern. During the discussion, a neighborhood architect who lives nearby suggested an approach that we believe merits further study. Rather than maintaining the current arrangement of narrow, alley-like spaces between individual units, some units could potentially be combined or reconfigured. This could allow the project to increase the front-yard setback and create a larger, more cohesive green space along West Lynn. Similarly, two of the units along the alley could potentially be combined to create additional space off the alley, helping reduce the likelihood of parked cars extending into the alley. This was a significant concern raised by neighbors who live along the alley. Green Space, Daylight, and the Arrangement of Units We encourage the developer to consider the long-term value and usability of the narrow yards currently proposed between the buildings. With buildings reaching approximately 40 feet in height, these spaces are likely to function as enclosed, alley-like areas. Their limited width and surrounding walls may make meaningful landscaping and access to daylight difficult. The separation of every individual unit with its own narrow yard also creates a more suburban development pattern, where land is more plentiful and individual structures can have meaningful space around them. On …

Learn why this is important External Email - Exercise Caution Re: Case number PR-2026-079349; GF-2026- 090393 — public hearing rescheduled for 10/7/2026 Dear Hunter Sturgill and Members of the City of Austin Historic Landmark Commission, We are writing as residents/neighbors in strong opposition of the proposed demolition of the contributing structure at 706 E. Monroe Street within the Travis Heights-Fairview Park National Register Historic District. Our own home, a 1980-built structure, is across the street from the proposed demolition. While our “new” build is a non-contributing wood frame and gabled house, it was thoughtfully designed with the scale and details of the three contiguous contributing structures across the street at 706, 708, and 710 East Monroe Street, similar to many of the bungalows that span from South Congress to Travis Heights Boulevard (see photos attached of adjacent homes to this property). Our own addition to our home in 2019 was respectfully designed to retain the architectural elements that lend themselves in scope and size to many of the homes on our street and in this historic district. 1 Like so many homes in the Travis Heights-Fairview Park District and on E. Monroe street, this 1920s Craftsman bungalow being considered for demolition is a contributing structure within the Travis Heights-Fairview Park National Register Historic District and appears to retain strong architectural integrity. We are concerned that demolition of this contributing structure would remove an important piece of the historic fabric of the neighborhood. As you know, historic districts derive much of their character from the collection of individual buildings that remain in place. Once a contributing house is demolished, its contribution to the district cannot truly be replaced by a new structure, regardless of how well designed that new structure might be. As direct neighbors to this property we value the historic character and continuity of E. Monroe and our neighborhood. The loss of 706 E. Monroe would affect not only the property itself but also the surrounding streetscape and the historic district as a whole. What will that mean for future development of our neighborhood? Will it set a precedent to raze any “old” structure? Our neighborhood's …

LeAnne Wallis Michals & Paul Adam Michals 211 Academy Dr Austin, TX 78704-1809 4th October 2026 Hunter Sturgill Austin Planning Permitting and Development Center 6310 Wilhelmina Delco Drive Austin, TX 78752 preservation@austintexas.gov Dear Ms. Sturgill: We are writing regarding our Application for Permits in a National Register Historic Districts for the October 7, 2026 meeting of the Historic Landmark Commission. The property is located at 211 Academy Drive, and the case number is HR-2026-118672. We have reviewed Item 16.0, concerning 211 Academy Drive, posted on the City’s Historic Landmark Commission website. We respectfully request that this letter be included in the public record and considered by the Commission. In June 1983, LeAnne Wallis purchased the duplex at 211 Academy Drive with a down payment provided by her paternal grandmother. As of July 1, 2026, LeAnne has owned and resided at the property continuously for 43 years. LeAnne’s ownership substantially exceeds the approximately 12 years during which the Turner family owned the property in the late 1940s and 1950s. For more than 20 years LeAnne rented the B side of the duplex to tenants seeking economical, centrally located housing in South Austin, approximately two blocks from South Congress Avenue. In 2005, LeAnne hired Valiant Homes, Inc. to complete a permitted interior remodel under City of Austin Building Permit No. 05003614, issued March 8, 2005. The remodel converted the 1930-era, two-bedroom, one-bathroom units into a single-family residence with four bedrooms and two bathrooms. During the six-month remodel 211 Academy Drive remained our mailing address while we temporarily lived in an apartment two doors away on Hillside Avenue. We have benefited substantially from the 2005 remodel, which provided a modern kitchen, an open living area, central air conditioning, and electrical systems brought up to modern code. However, the property is still a 1933 pier-and-beam house with significant maintenance and performance concerns. The foundation requires leveling; the attic has limited insulation; and the original double-hung sash windows provide very limited insulating value. In addition, the roof dormers do not provide effective attic ventilation. Following an early-1990s fire that destroyed the roof, the dormers were replaced with features that are largely cosmetic rather than functional. The eventual sale of 211 Academy Drive is an important part of our retirement planning. We are concerned that the property’s designation as a contributing property in the Travis Heights–Fairview Park Historic District, implemented in 2023, could unnecessarily limit our …

Sturgill, Hunter From: Sent: To: Subject: Tuesday, October 6, 2026 6:33 PM Historic Preservation Office 908 W Gibson You don't often get email from Learn why this is important External Email - Exercise Caution Demolition Objection Case #: PR-2025-153753; GF-2026-120967 I object to the proposed demolition at 908 West Gibson Street because it conflicts with the preservation goals of the Bouldin Creek Neighborhood Plan, adopted by City Council on May 23, 2002. Goal 1 calls for maintaining neighborhood character and assets, while Objective 1.4 promotes historic designation to preserve existing properties. The plan’s voluntary design guidelines explicitly state: “Encourage the renovation, rather than the demolition, of existing structures.” The City’s own staff report acknowledges that this circa-1938 house appears to retain integrity and was identified in the 2016 survey as contributing to a potential historic district. Continuing to approve demolitions of these properties undermines the City’s adopted commitments. A neighborhood plan means little when the very buildings and character it seeks to preserve are steadily erased. The front yard also contains an original sidewalk that I understand dates to the 1920s. To my knowledge, it is the only remaining example of its kind in our neighborhood, and its elevated position appears to document how much higher the street once stood. This is a physical connection to our neighborhood’s early history, not simply disposable concrete. Although this review concerns structures, the sidewalk’s historical significance should not be overlooked or lost during demolition or subsequent construction. I ask the Commission to postpone approval while alternatives to demolition are explored and the sidewalk is inspected, documented, and evaluated for preservation in its original location. Our neighborhood’s history does not stop at the walls of its houses. Thank you, Scott Ingalls PMP, CSM CAUTION: This is an EXTERNAL email.

I have lived only a few blocks from the properties for over 35 years and most of the information in the staff report was entirely new to me. I knew that the buildings were the Austin Diagnostic Clinic buildings and that many of my neighbors continued to use doctors in the medical buildings until only the dialysis center remained. I had no idea about the important research being done by Dr. Moncrief. I thought that the sky bridge connecting the two buildings was rare in Austin, but I had no idea about the Mid-century Modern design by the renowned team of Wilson, Morris, Crain & Anderson. Considering that the Frank Erwin Center was torn down and city plans have been approved to remove the Austin American Statesman building, I support preserving these two much smaller examples of their designs that are now rare in Austin. These buildings have been vacant or near vacant for well over a decade and we’ve lived through attempts to re- zone the properties more than once. Most recently our City Council changed the zoning to GR-ETOD- DBETOD. …

I live just blocks away from 800 and 801 W. 34th and have always found the skybridge a unique architectural feature. It would be tragic to tear down the buildings just to clear the lot especially without any proposed development plan. Austin would lose the architects’ vision forever simply for reducing the property tax value as there are no proposed plans. That would be a real shame. I live in an historic home on busy Speedway and have many passersby remark on how much they appreciate that the City recognizes the contribution that historic properties make to the fabric of its neighborhoods. The previous owners wanted to demolish it too, but thankfully the neighborhood and the HLC intervened. It stands proudly on the corner of 35th and Speedway. 1 Please vote to add Historic zoning to protect the former Austin Diagnostic Clinic properties at 800 & 801 W. 34th. This would allow the properties to retain their unique characteristics, encourage the owner to clean it up and maintain the exterior, and challenge any future architects that would be tasked …

MEMORANDUM To: From: Mayor and City Council Michael Rogers, Assistant City Manager Susana Carbajal, Assistant City Manager Date: October 5, 2026 Subject: 1107 Castle Ridge Road Wastewater Service Extension Request No. 6451 Service Extension Requests (SERs) located outside of the City of Austin’s full purpose jurisdiction and not within the Desired Development Zone require City Council approval and review by the Environmental and Water and Wastewater Commissions. Austin Water and Austin Watershed Protection staff have completed the review for 1107 Castle Ridge Road Wastewater Service Extension Request (SER) No. 6451, and both departments recommend approval of the request. Summary of Proposed Development The 1107 Castle Ridge Road project consists of approximately 2.85 acres (Property). The Property is located entirely within the City’s 2-mile Extra-Territorial Jurisdiction (ETJ), Impact Fee Boundary, Austin Water’s service area for wastewater, the Drinking Water Protection Zone, the Barton Creek Watershed, the Barton Springs Zone, and the Edwards Aquifer Contributing Zone. The Property is generally located west of Loop 360 and north of Lost Creek Boulevard, near City Council district 8 in zip code 78746. There is an existing single-family home on this lot that receives water service from Travis County Water Control and Improvement District (WCID) No. 10 and has a privately owned and operated onsite sewage facility (OSSF) for its wastewater service. Parkside Homes, LLC (Owner) is proposing to demolish the existing home, abandon the OSSF, and redevelop the tract with three single-family homes. The Owner requested that the City provide centralized wastewater service to the Property. In response to the request, Austin Water determined that the Owner must construct infrastructure to receive wastewater services from Austin Water. These requirements are reflected in SER No. 6451. Travis County WCID No. 10 will continue to provide retail water service to the Property. The Owner previously submitted SER No. 5845 and SER No. 6290. The initial application for SER No. 5845 was approved on consent by City Council on October 10, 2024, but subsequently expired. The Owner later submitted SER No. 6290 but it was denied by City Council on April 23, 2026, over concerns related to the ability for the property to remove itself from the ETJ, thereby no longer being held to the high standards of environmental protections required by the Save Our Springs Ordinance Date: Subject: October 5, 2026 1107 Castle Ridge Road Wastewater Service Extension Request No. 6451 Nearby SER Activity There are …
