Variance request: fencing at 4523 Avenue G Victoria Goodman & Mark Sainsbury Owners ITEM05/1-PRESENTATION Background: pool • Because of the pool we built, we constructed a new fence along our southern and eastern boundaries for which we received variance C15-2009-0013 (unanimous approval). • Along our eastern boundary the total height of the 2009 fence is 9 feet: 6 feet solid topped by 3 feet ornamental trellis. • When we acquired the immediately adjacent property to our north, we extended the eastern fence and continued it along our northern boundary, with an exactly matching 9 foot fence: 6 feet solid topped by 3 feet ornamental trellis. • That is the fence for which we now seek a variance.

C15-2026-0036 4107 Lakeplace Lane ITEM06/1-PRESENTATION ITEM06/2-PRESENTATION Existing tram was constructed in approximately 2001 by a previous owner. ITEM06/3-PRESENTATION ITEM06/4-PRESENTATION ITEM06/5-PRESENTATION ITEM06/6-PRESENTATION Variances Requested: 1. Variance from Section 25-2-551(B)(3)(a) (Lake Austin District Regulations) to permit mechanical pedestrian ("LA") zoning district. access in a Lake Austin 2. Variance from Section 25-2-551(E)(2) (Lake Austin District Regulations) to permit development on a slope with a gradient of more than 35 percent. ITEM06/7-PRESENTATION Variances Findings: Reasonable Use: The zoning regulations applicable to the property do not allow for a reasonable use because: The shoreline setback area restrictions and additional development standards based on slope gradient regulations are only applicable to properties zoned Lake Austin residence district ("LA") and do not apply to other zoning districts along Lake Austin. Without the variances the property owner would not be able to access all areas of the property. ITEM06/8-PRESENTATION Variances Findings: Hardship: a. The hardship for which the variance is requested is unique to the property in that: The topography of the property between the residence and Lake Austin is steeply sloped and varies from 35% to over 1,500% with a vertical drop in excess of 60 feet which makes it extremely difficult to access the entire property without a tram. ITEM06/9-PRESENTATION Variances Findings: Hardship: b. The hardship is not general to the area in which the property is located because: The property sits on a sheer vertical cliff verses rolling slopes that are more common along Lake Austin. There is also an abundance of large, mature tress that are heavily concentrated along the lake side. ITEM06/10-PRESENTATION Variances Findings: Area Character: The variance will not alter the character of the area adjacent to the property, will not impair the use of adjacent conforming property, and will not impair the purpose of the regulations of the zoning district in which the property is located because: These variances would not alter the character of adjacent properties nor impair their use of their own property because the tram is located within a heavily vegetated area and cannot be seen by the adjacent neighbors. LA zoning allows for roads and driveways to be located within the shoreline setback area with a gradient of more than 35%, but due to the extreme topography on the subject property, these types of improvements are not feasible. A tram is required to access all of the property. ITEM06/11-PRESENTATION

Variance Presentation for Case Number C15-0037/714 Post Oak St. Meeting date September 14, 2026 Good evening. My name is Ms. Shesh Aandahl. Photo #1. The subject house is highlighted. The variance is a request to make the existing balcony into bedroom conditioned space. Photo #2. This is the front view of the house. It’s cute. Photo #3. house on the right varies from three to two stories. This is the rear view of the house. The house to the left is a one story. The Photo #4. The backyard faces a creek and is green year around. Photo #5. The space is just over 5 feet wide. This is the only part of the second floor balcony that is visible to a neighbor. First, the good news about this variance is that it is simply changing already existing balcony space to conditioned bedroom space. Second, this change can only be seen minutely by the neighbor in the three story home next door. Third, this request complies with all LDC setback codes. The footprint of the house is not being expanded at all. Fourth, there will be no nature, home characteristics, or neighborhood alterations or impacts. Fifth, this request complies with LDC Code #25-2-779, Small Lot Single Family Residential Use, subsections (D) #9, maximum building coverage of 55 percent, and (J) #1, #2 and #3. However, subsection (J) #4 makes the gross floor area stipulated in subsections (D) #9 and (J) #3 unavailable. Please help us rectify this hardship. Thank you.

August 20, 2026 Historic Preservation Office City of Austin, Texas preservation@austintexas.gov RE: Condition of Existing Masonry at 1614 Preston Avenue, Austin, Texas 78703 Mr. Lukes and Members of the Historic Landmark Commission, I am the general contractor for the proposed renovation and second-story addition at 1614 Preston Avenue. I have over 20 years of experience in residential construction in Austin and Central Texas, including work on homes of this era, and with the kinds of masonry challenges present at 1614 Preston. This letter details my professional assessment of the condition of the existing masonry, the origin of the present issues, and my recommendation. On the structural questions, I have relied on the concurring opinion of the project’s structural engineer, Bradley Shaw. The existing stone masonry at 1614 Preston does not extend around the building. The stone is present on the front and along a little more than half of the left side. The remaining walls are not stone- clad. In my assessment, significant portions of this masonry do not appear original to the 1939 structure. This is most apparent at the chimney and along the Jefferson Street side. This conclusion is based on the variation in the stone’s cut and color, differences in coursing and mortar, and the way the stonework terminates, particularly at and around the chimney and the earlier addition area. These observations are consistent with the property’s other evidence of prior additions, as well as the structural engineer’s findings. The existing masonry is deteriorating and cannot be reliably stabilized. I observe cracking and displacement within the stonework, failed mortar joints, and clear evidence of chronic moisture intrusion. This evidence includes staining, dampness, and heavy biofilm growth in areas that appear to remain persistently wet rather than occasionally damp. The concentration of biofilm at grade and across the lower half of the wall is consistent with water collecting and remaining at the base of the wall, from ground contact, splashback, and the lack of appropriate base flashing. At the chimney, the biofilm marks sustained water entry at a junction that is a common source of leaks. Mortar loss and stone decay are most advanced in these same areas. In my experience, the cause is most often the manner of construction. A masonry wall always takes on some water. Without sufficient weather-resistive barriers, drainage cavities, flashing, or weep systems, water is held against the back of the stone and …

SXSW 2027 SXSW 2027 A brief overview of SXSW for the Austin Tourism Commission 1 Where the world convenes Where the world convenes Every March since 1987, SXSW turns Austin into the meeting place for the people shaping what's next. Four festivals — Music, Film & TV, Innovation, and Comedy — run at once across downtown, so a filmmaker, a founder, a marketer, and a musician all move through the same seven days. That convergence creates maximum impact for our attendees and our city. 2 SXSW INNOVATION CONFERENCE SXSW MUSIC FESTIVAL & CONFERENCE SXSW FILM & TV FESTIVAL & CONFERENCE SXSW COMEDY FESTIVAL The ideas, technology, and founders defining the next decade of business and culture. A must attend for brands, marketers, and creators. Seven nights of showcases and the discovery that breaks tomorrow's headliners. Not just a festival, it’s the industry event for the music business. Premieres, screenings, and the creators redefining how stories get made and seen. It’s up-and-coming talent crossing red carpet paths with Oscar-winners. The comics and shows setting the tone for what the culture laughs at next. Comedy is a sharp filter on what’s next in culture. 3 SXSW by the numbers SXSW by the numbers 200K+ 75+ 2,000+ $375M+ Creators, founders, and executives converge on Austin across the conference and festivals. Countries represented — a genuinely global room your delegation steps into. Conference sessions across four festivals — a full week to build a schedule around.
