Variance Request 2311 Lafayette Avenue C15-2022-0071 The Board of Adjustment October 10, 2022 Micah King Husch Blackwell LLP ITEM8/1-PRESENTATION Purpose To facilitate the replacement of an existing, non-complying secondary unit with a safe, modern new unit (including elimination of the existing unit’s setback encroachments) and the preservation of the front house, which was constructed in 1948, which contributes to the neighborhood’s character. 2 ITEM8/2-PRESENTATION Map of Property Location 3 ITEM8/3-PRESENTATION Map of Area Zoning 4 ITEM8/4-PRESENTATION The Front House (To be Preserved) 5 ITEM8/5-PRESENTATION The Rear House (To be Replaced) 6 ITEM8/6-PRESENTATION Requested Variances From LDC § 25-2-774(C)(5)(a), to increase the maximum size of a secondary unit from the lesser of 1,100 sq. ft. or 0.15 FAR (required) to 1,452 sq. ft.

I am writing to express my opposition to Variance Request A. This variance is asking to lessen the amount of distance that may be built upon, in relation to the edge of the property lines. The code is currently set at 25 feet. The applicant wants to lessen this distance to only 7 feet from the eastern property line, and 13 feet from the southern one. I fell that the requested distances are too close to the property border for building, especially the one requesting only 7 feet! I would like to express my opposition to those items, am fine with the requests from Variance B.

Remember as a kid asking for something from your parents but trying to ask them separately? I think CMBH2 is doing that. They didn’t get what they wanted from the ZAP so now they are asking the Board of Adjustment. This property was purchased in March 2021 by CMCBH2 Company LLC. Their initial zoning change request (C14-2021-0056) was opposed by the Matthews Lane Neighborhood Association (MLNA). With the assistance of Ann Kitchen’s office the MF-3 (and 14 homes) request was reduced …

The City of Austin recognizes that past plans and investments have not met the needs of all Austinites or have actively harmed communities - especially low-income communities and communities of color. This furthered inequalities in transportation, health, safety, housing, and income. What We Learned What We Learned – Concerns Around Housing “The City needs to invest more resources in listening to residents of color and implementing policies that vulnerable populations want. I want to see sidewalk and bike lane improvements that are coupled with “right of return” and other housing policies that keep people in their homes and prevent gentrification.” How We Are Moving Forward Policy Ideas As Austin is experiencing an affordability crisis, ATXWBR is considering policy ideas to reduce transportation cost, such as: • Making transit and bikeshare completely free for all residents • A "Guaranteed Basic Mobility Program" (transportation debit card for low-income residents that can be used for transit, bikeshare, rideshare, scooters, taxis, etc.) • Explore ways to provide a fair allocation of transportation services for …

From: To: Cc: Subject: Date: Bryce Allison Ramirez, Elaine c C15-2022-0061 / 1401 E 3rd St Tuesday, October 04, 2022 8:29:48 AM *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Dear Board of Adjustment, I have been in conversations with Cortland Chalfant regarding the property at 1401 E 3rd St and the newly requested setback on the Navasota side from 15' to 10'. He has shared his plans to remove the existing structure and rebuild a new house and ADU that is more fitting with the neighborhood. I understand that these new plans would respect the existing setback adjacent lot (east side) but will require a variance on the setback of Navasota side of the street. Since these new plans lead to a structure that is more fitting with the nature and character of the neighborhood, I am supportive of the request for variance on the Navasota side to reduce the setback from 15' to 10' in order to accommodate this.

The existing white structure has been a graffiti covered eyesore that brings the entire neighborhood down for far too long. It has been our opinion all along that the structure should be torn down - not only because it is an eyesore but because it is a fire hazard for the neighboring property and does not fit into the character of the neighborhood. I've reviewed the latest variance request to reduce the street (Navasota) side set back from 15' to 10' and the images of the proposed structure which is the subject of the October 10, 2022 meeting. It is my opinion that removing and replacing the existing white structure with what is being proposed would fit into the neighborhood much better. Therefore, I am in favor of the BOA granting this variance to reduce the street (Navasota) side set back from …

I am writing as a resident of the Delwood 2 neighborhood to oppose the Code Variance Request for the sign at 4507 N IH 35.
