There are large limestone outcroppings at the top of the steep slope on this lot. These strata are present along the boundaries of 15 lots, running the entire length of this portion of Edgewater Drive. Canyon Rimrock environmental features (CEFs) were identified at 2520 Saratoga Drive within ¼ mile of 2803 Edgewater. These features were documented in the City of Austin GIS when the Saratoga Pointe PUD was created. There is possible evidence of Seepsand Springsin the canyon on the lot adjoining the applicant’s property. The CEFs require a 150 foot buffer.2803 EDGEWATER C15-2019-0055 INTERESTED PARTY SUGGESTIONS –JAN 13, 2020P-2/219Why do [19] neighbors and interested parties continue to oppose this project? Why have [2] of the 5 people who initially supported it [Colmar and Taylor] rescinded their support?We continue to question the character and scope of the proposed development.Edgewater Drive is a one-lane dead end street. The neighborhood has many small older homes occupied by longtime residents. Nine properties on Edgewater, with and without lake frontage, contain 1500 sf or less living space. The Area of Character photos are of two 2000 sf duplexes built in 1964 which contain only 1000 sf of living space for each of two families. No adjacent homes have any improvements on the slope behind the house. There are no swimming pools in the front of any homes on the entire extent of Edgewater Drive. Having a pool in front of the house is distinctly not part of the Area of Character for the neighborhood. 2803 EDGEWATER C15-2019-0055 INTERESTED PARTY SUGGESTIONS –JAN 13, 2020P-2/220
