Case C15-2025-0019 7211 Ridge Oak Rd Austin Tim Favorite, on behalf of the Woods at Legend Oaks HOA 11950 Jollyville Road Austin TX 78759 OPPOSED The Board of directors, architectural committee, and several neighbors in the area have stated that they are opposed to the 8’ fence being installed in the neighborhood due to the fact that the rest of the front facing fences in the neighborhood are 6’ tall. This creates an inconsistency in the neighborhood, and it obstructs the view from the neighboring houses.

AGRICULTURAL VALUATIONS IN AUSTIN/TRAVIS COUNTY Ian Dill - COA Office of Climate Action and Resilience Background Travis Central Appraisal District (TCAD) creates the criteria for Agricultural Valuations based on primary use and property history. The State Comptroller releases guidelines for all Texas counties based on 1966 and 1978 Constitutional Amendments. Properties must pass 3 tests to qualify: “Principal Use” Test “Degree of Intensity” Test Time Period Test TCAD Structure TCAD has a big Board of Directors which is elected and run by a Chief Appraiser The Director appoints the Agricultural Appraisal Advisory Board, at least 2 of which are recipients of an Agricultural Exemption This has no decision-making authority over Exemptions! They advise on intensity standards Any issues with specific appraisals are handled by the Appraisal Review Board Appraisal Review Board members are private citizens appointed by TCAD Defining the Problem 3 main problems with Agricultural Valuations in Travis County: Agricultural Valuations ought to help stop the loss of Travis County Farmland. 1. Farmers in Austin/Travis County have trouble getting an exemption. 2. Not well aligned with goals in the Food Systems Plan. 3. Conspicuous properties are receiving valuations for land on or around large developments. Travis County has lost 11% of its farmland acreage and 21% of its farms since 2017. Average farm size has grown by 13% since 2017. Properties receiving a 1-d-1 exemption in the City of Austin (2023) 1-d-1 --- Open Space Agricultural Use (Dry Cropland, Pasture) 1-d-1B --- Beekeeping 1-d-1E --- Ecological Lab 1-d-1W --- Wildlife Conservation Barriers to Farmer Accesss The guidelines offer no way to measure intensity for a huge share of our crop mix! As of 2022, $14 million in crop sales out of the total $63 million are vegetables, melons, potatoes, sweet potatoes, nurseries, greenhouses, floriculture, or sod. Negotiations and challenges to appraisal process are complex and time-consuming. Food Systems Plan Alignment Stated Goals The Food Systems Plan (2024) aims for a diverse food inventory (Goal 4) and support regenerative food production (Goal 1). Assessment Process Assessors seem to take a snapshot of farms which misleads them about the intensity and farming techniques being used. Program-Wide Trends Even if only farms or conservation lands get exempted, the fact that the largest exempted properties are attached to a new factory and a racetrack indicate that the program is currently a development incentive. Recommendations - TCAD 1. Update and clarify intensity and size …
