Our property is brown in this image. We received signatures of support from 6 nearby neighbors at 5 properties. Those in support are highlighted in green. The house on Texas Ave was originally concerned and asked for a postponement at a previous HOA meeting, but is now in support. The neighbor directly behind the property is still not in support and prefers the property to be subdivided so that both lots front on 38th street (which would not allow the existing house to be saved).

American Bird Conservancy Model Bird-Friendly Building Guidelines December 2020 These model, or ideal, guidelines are intended to be a starting point for cities, towns, villages, counties, states, and any other entity interested in regulating or guiding building construction to reduce bird collisions with glass. They describe a truly bird-friendly building. Summarized simply, these guidelines are based on a 100/100/100 framework: 100% of all glass and other building materials should be bird friendly in the first 100 feet of 100% of buildings. The guidelines also specifically include all hazardous features that can trap birds or push them in the direction of dangerous features. Any group that adopts this ordinance as written will be at the leading edge of creating a bird- friendly built environment. However, many groups considering such guidelines will be interested in softening the language to exempt certain types of buildings or to reduce the amount of bird-friendly glass required. In anticipation of this, American Bird Conservancy (ABC) has created a discussion of the issues to be considered when revising the model guidelines. (See ABC’s Legislation, Ordinances, and Guidelines) These guidelines will be most commonly adopted as an ordinance to modify municipal building codes. As a result, the guidelines below are written in the form of a model ordinance. However, the text can be easily adapted to fit other building guidance formats. ABC will revise these guidelines as new science, materials, techniques, and technologies become available, so please make sure that you have the most current version before you begin the process of creating your own guidelines. (See ABC’s Legislation, Ordinances, and Guidelines) PROPOSAL NUMBER: SPONSOR(S): PROPOSAL NAME: Bird-Friendly Building Design Requirements PURPOSE: This building ordinance has been created to address the role of the (MUNICIPALITY)’s built environment in the annual loss of up to 1 billion birds due to glass collisions in the United States. WHEREAS, birds provide valuable and important ecological services, WHEREAS, (MUNICIPALITY) has recorded (XXX) species of resident and migratory bird species, WHEREAS, birding is a hobby enjoyed by 46 million Americans with an annual $107 billion total industry output in the United States, WHEREAS, as many as 1 billion birds may be killed by collisions with windows every year in the United States, WHEREAS, new buildings can be designed to reduce bird deaths from collisions without significant additional cost, WHEREAS there exist strategies to mitigate collisions on existing buildings, WHEREAS witnessing a collision is …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS SEPTEMBER 7, 2022 HR-2022-067914 TRAVIS HEIGHTS - FAIRVIEW PARK 2107 BRACKENRIDGE STREET 12 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish ca. 1946 house and ca. 1940 accessory building and construct a new duplex. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Demolish existing buildings and construct a new duplex. The proposed duplex has a compound flat and gabled roof clad in standing-seam metal. Its exterior cladding includes stucco, diagonal wood siding, and stone. Fenestration is irregular throughout and includes undivided fixed and casement windows and full height sliding doors. ARCHITECTURE One-story cross-gabled house with horizontal siding, 1:1 windows, and rear two-story garage apartment. RESEARCH The primary building at 2107 Brackenridge Street was built in 1946 in front of an existing garage apartment, built 1940, which was converted to a duplex in 1949. Its residents included a cleaner, two carpenters, a rental property manager, and a tailor. 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 in National Register districts. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Residential new construction 1. Location The proposed duplex is located approximately 50’ from Brackenridge Street. 2. Orientation The front unit of the proposed duplex is oriented toward the primary streetscape. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed duplex is two stories in height, with complex massing that appears at odds with the relatively simple massing of surrounding buildings. 4. Proportions The proposed duplex’s two-story height and top-heavy massing appear incompatible with nearby contributing buildings. 5. Design and style The proposed duplex’s postmodern style does not appear compatible with surrounding buildings. 6. Roofs The gabled roofline is somewhat compatible, though the complexity of the roofline is not. 7. Exterior walls The proposed cladding materials are not appropriate for the district, with the exception of the stucco, which appears elsewhere in the district. 8. Windows and doors The proposed irregular fenestration is largely incompatible; however, the applicant has amended the design to improve compatibility. 11. Attached garages and carports The proposed carports somewhat serve as a step-up element to mitigate the duplex’s upper-story visual weight. Summary The project does not meet most of the applicable standards. 12 – 2 PROPERTY EVALUATION The property contributes to the Travis Heights-Fairview Park National Register district. Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS SEPTEMBER 7, 2022 HR-2022-112041 TRAVIS HEIGHTS- FAIRVIEW PARK 2110 KENWOOD 14.0 – 1 PROPOSAL New construction of an ADU and demolition of a carport. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Demolition of the existing carport. 2) New construction of a two-story ADU in the rear of the primary, contributing, single-family residential house. Materials: Horizontal wooden siding and stucco. 3) ADU will have two car garage on the first floor and a residence on the second floor and be oriented with an entrance towards the alley. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS Residential new construction 1. Location The primary residence is a one-story, brick, Ranch style, single-family residence built circa 1961. It has been painted white. It has a low pitch pyramidal roof, a large picture window flanked by two smaller sections of multiple lights, and a single door entry composing an asymmetrical façade. There is a partial roof porch under the main roof form. Research shows that water and wastewater permits in the name of Miss Mary Mellon were issued in January of 1961. 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 in National Register districts. The following standards apply to the proposed project: The ADU is sited at the rear of the property and behind the primary contributing property. It is is compatible with the historic design guidelines. 1.3 Locate accessory buildings in a way that follows the historic location and setback patterns of similar buildings on the block or in the district. Garage apartments, detached garages, and other accessory buildings are typically located at the rear of the lot, behind and to the side of the front building. 3. Scale, massing, proportions and height The ADU’s two story height and proportions detracts from the primary contributing structure but the rear placement and setback on the lot helps to offset the height. 3.6 Design accessory buildings to be visually subordinate to the primary building in height, massing, and form, as viewed from the street. 5. Design and style The design and style of the ADU is of simple, clean lines, with wood and stucco materials, not dissimilar to Mid-Century Modern buildings. Its placement at the rear of the property helps it appear further sympathetic, and it does not compete with the Ranch Style of the primary house …
HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS SEPTEMBER 7, 2022 PR-2022-106735; GF-2022-117616 1200 MARSHALL LANE 15 – 1 PROPOSAL ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH Demolish a ca. 1939 house. No plans for new construction have been submitted. One-story cross-gabled Minimal Traditional house with cut-stone veneer, simple wood frieze and pilasters, and 6:6 wood windows. 1200 Marshall Lane was built in 1939 for Mrs. Jennie Davis. Jennie Davis worked as a clerk at the State Highway Department, and shared the home with her son, Sam Davis, until he joined the Army and was sent to Fort Sam Houston to work as a medical technician in 1941. Davis then rented portions of her home to tenants, including a lawyer and a university student, throughout the 1950s. PROPERTY EVALUATION The property contributes to the Old West Austin National Register district. Designation Criteria—Historic Landmark 1) The building is more than 50 years old. 2) The building appears to retain moderate 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: a. Architecture. The building displays a Minimal Traditional interpretation of Colonial Revival-style influences. 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.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS SEPTEMBER 7, 2022 HR-2022-119946 WEST LINE 1206 MARSHALL LANE 16 – 1 PROPOSAL Demolish a ca. 1946 building and construct a new residence. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Demolish existing residence. 2) Construct a two- and one-half story house. The proposed building is clad in stucco with vertical wood accent siding and painted steel panels. It is capped by a compound hipped, flat, and shed roof of standing-seam metal. Fenestration includes undivided sliders, fixed, and casement windows, as well as fully glazed doors. A flat-roofed porch extends at the first level to form a carport. 3) Construct a two-story garage apartment. The proposed building is attached to the main house by a flat steel trellis and is clad to match. Fenestration is simple and the gabled roof is of standing-seam metal. 4) Construct a swimming pool. ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH DESIGN STANDARDS One-story Minimal Traditional house with partial-width porch, 1:1 windows, cross-gabled roof, and masonry veneer. The house at 1206 Marshall Lane was built in 1946 by K. S. DeBusk. Its first owner was Louise P. Dolman, who worked as a clerk at the State Adjutant General and the IRS. Following Dolman’s departure, it was occupied by salesman Clyde Achols and State Education Agency consultant Margaret Scholl. 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 in National Register districts. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Residential new construction 1. Location The proposed buildings appear appropriately sited and set back. 2. Orientation The proposed buildings’ orientations appear consistent with contributing buildings on the block. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed building’s height is one-half story taller than the tallest surrounding building. Its irregular massing is mitigated by the horizontal front porch and carport and stepped-down flat roof. 4. Proportions The main building’s proportions are not compatible with nearby contributing buildings. 5. Design and style The proposed buildings’ design and style appear consistent and differentiated, though they do not appear to take cues from the surrounding district. 6. Roofs The proposed compound roofline does not appear compatible. 7. Exterior walls While the proposed stucco cladding is somewhat compatible, the metal accent panels are not; horizontal siding would be more compatible than vertical. 8. Windows and doors The proposed irregular fenestration is not compatible with nearby contributing …

From: To: Cc: Subject: Date: Attachments: Mike McHone Contreras, Kalan 314 Le Grande Ave (demolition) Thursday, August 25, 2022 6:31:17 PM Scan 20220825 (2).pdf *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Hi Kalan, Thanks for the email informing me of the HLC September meeting. I plan to attend in person. I will be prepared to speak if needed. I have attached a professional property inspection report preformed in March. This house has been empty since last August when the long term owner , Mr. Dial, died. His daughter is the executor of his estate which is in probate with her 3 brothers. Unfortunately, one brother has since died and now there are two open probates which need to be settled. It was a surprise for the family to learn that this small worn out and poorly configured house was considered to be a “contributing” structure to the Travis Heights National Historic Register District. This was especially hard to understand given their father’s decades struggle and considerable public testimony against his house being included in any preservation action or zoning. In addition the following support the request for a demolition permit: 1. The house does not meet the criteria for City of Austin designation as a Historic structure 2. The structure does not contribute to the major historical period of Travis Heights 3. The structure is not located on Le Grande Ave. The street has a steep downhill curve and a driveway off the center of the curve onto a gravel drive to the garage of 314 Le Grande (address) . Please let me know if you need additional information. Best regards, Mike CAUTION: This email was received at the City of Austin, from an EXTERNAL source.
