The existing structure on the property exceeds the FAR for SF-3 due to a previous variance and appears to greatly exceed the mandated impervious cover requirements. Increasing the FAR and impervious cover further will aggravate drainage problems in the neighborhood and will set a bad precedent for the neigborhood.

Re: Case# C15-2021-0036 6141 Jumano Ln To: The Board of Adjustments, City of Austin, My name is Ted Harbourt. My wife Anita Harbourt and I live at 7101 Quimper ln. We have lived at this address for 23 yrs. We had our house built and raised our family here. Our house faces Quimper and is on the corner of Quimper and Jumano. Our back fence is adjacent to the side yard of 6141 Jumano ln. On Nov 6th 2020, the resident at 6141 Jumano had a new fence addition added along our back fence line. We would like to express our opposition to the addition of this fence for the following reasons. The new fence extension at 8ft is taller than our existing fence and creates an offensive look from our back yard with two fences back to back of different height. The new extension is not fluid and continuous, there is a 4ft break in the fence that is filled with a cloth tarp to cover the gap. This is not in compliance with the HOA and has not been approved. She has only lived in the neighborhood for 1 ½ yrs and our existing backyard fence has been sufficient for 21 ½ yrs before she lived here. The elevation of our properties was very clear when she purchased her property. She was fully aware of the fence lines when she bought her property. We were not listed as one of the residences within line of sight and did not give our consent to have this built along our established fence line. Had we been consulted, we may have been able to come to an agreement to improve the height of the existing fence and avoid the physical issues and aesthetic concerns. The addition of a second fence along our back property line has created a space between the two fences that is now filling with debris and is inaccessible to maintain. And we cannot simply remove our fence as hers is not fluid and continuous. In the process of installing the additional partition along our back fence, our fence posts have been destabilized and now disconnected from the rest of the neighborhood fence structure. On the Day the fence was constructed all three adjacent property owners called 311 as none of us were contacted nor did any of us give consent for our property to be removed or …
Ramirez, Elaine From: Sent: To: Subject: Past Chair Sunday, July 11, 2021 7:51 PM Ramirez, Elaine E-3 C15-2021-0048. 8300 N IH35 and 600 E Powell, The Hedge > *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Hi Elaine - Could you pass this on? Thanks! ============= Chair, Vice Chair, Boardmembers - The applicant told you last month that they had not yet talked to the community about transportation features that could realistically reduce demand for parking spaces. Fortunately, we've done quite a bit of work on the issue of connecting our residents in the interstate apartments and motels, so we do have some information: PROJECT FEASIBILITY I'm not positive this is the most current number, but the sidewalk cost I have from the city is $24 per square foot. For a 10-foot-side sidewalk, roughly 300 feet, the city cost would be $72,000. The applicant's proposed $25,000 "contribution" amounts to asking the city to reduce their parking requirement AND to spend $47,000 on their internal sidewalk. A stronger proposal would simply be that the applicant construct the ADA-accessible route to city urban trail standards. If they can do it cheaper, Yay for them. In order to construct the trail, there would need to be site plan adjustments for both the 8300 N IH 35 property and the 600 E Powell Ln property. I don't believe that you can approve a variance for 600 E Powell under the current case. The applicant's proposal is not clear in how the process would be connected to assure that if they get the parking variance, the route to E Powell would for sure be constructed. The applicant is also asking to use 600 E Powell Ln for two years as temporary parking. It is not clear what that means, or what drives the two year time frame. One of the conditions of the current site plan for that property is that there not be vehicle access to E Powell Ln. If there were to be vehicle access from 600 E Powell to Powell Ln, the trips per day for the apartment use would likely trigger a neighborhood traffic analysis. Based on the NTA for the other affordable apartments on E Powell, they would be required to pay for the impact. CRIME SAFETY We had a small mobility justice grant from the city equity office this spring which included community workers interviewing residents of our interstate apartments …
