(PRESENTATION PAGE 1: AREA MAP) ____________________________________________________________________________ Single Family Residential use in SF3 zoning is a reasonable use. LDC 25-2-492(D) mandates a minimum 50' lot width for SF3 lots. Therefore without a variance the subject property could ____________________________________________________________________________ not have a house built on it. Had it been created prior to 1948, this lot would have received ____________________________________________________________________________ land status. (see more below) ____________________________________________________________________________ a) b) ____________________________________________________________________________ The subject property is 34'-9" wide and 198' deep for a total of 6,941 sf of land which is a similar ____________________________________________________________________________ land area of a typical/standard lot. All of our hardships are a result of the substandard lot width. ____________________________________________________________________________ The 1st hardship is the narrow lot width of 34'-9" which currently prohibits us from obtaining ____________________________________________________________________________ legal lot status. (see more below) ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ Houses built on 50' wide lots would not have any of these hardships. These hardships are not general to the area because most of the lots are over 50' wide or have already received land ____________________________________________________________________________ status determination.

(PRESENTATION PAGE 4 _______________________________________________________________________________ NEIGHBORHOOD MAP) _______________________________________________________________________________ It is reasonable for a 34'-9" wide by 198' deep lot to fully utilize maximum Floor to Area Ratio (FAR) _______________________________________________________________________________ and Impervious Cover (IC) allowances enjoyed by other legal lots over 50' wide. For this to happen _______________________________________________________________________________ relief is required from the mandates of LDC 25-2 Subchapter F Article 2.6A and LDC 25-2 _______________________________________________________________________________ Subchapter F Article 2.7 as noted herein. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ SECTION 2 - HARDSHIP - CONT'D: The 2nd hardship is the narrow lot width combined with the _______________________________________________________________________________ side setback plane (LDC 25-2 Sub F, Art 2.6A) limits the potential building width to 14'-6" wide at _______________________________________________________________________________ 25' above grade and 4'-6" wide at 30' above grade. A typical 50' lot would only be limited to a _______________________________________________________________________________ potential building width of 30' wide at 25' above grade and 20' wide 30' above grade. We are _______________________________________________________________________________ asking for a variance from the side setback plane along the shared property line between 2 _______________________________________________________________________________ adjacent lots (703 and 705 Fletcher) in order to allow us to build 19'-6" wide at 25' above grade and _______________________________________________________________________________ 14'-6" wide at 30' above grade. (PRESENTATION PAGE 3: SITE SECTION) _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ The 3rd hardship is that the narrow lot combined with the setback articulation requirement (LDC _______________________________________________________________________________ 25-2 Sub F, Art 2.7) limits the potential building width to an unreasonable size. The possible _______________________________________________________________________________ building width is limited to 25' wide (5' setback on either side) and 17' at the required articulation (4' _______________________________________________________________________________ articulation on either side). A typical 50' wide lot would only be limited to 40' at the setback and 32' _______________________________________________________________________________ at the required articulations. We are asking for a variance from the setback articulation _______________________________________________________________________________ requirement only along the shared property line between the 2 adjacent lots (703 and 705 _______________________________________________________________________________ Fletcher). _______________________________________________________________________________ Houses built on 50' lots would have neither of hardships as noted above. After 70 years, the _______________________________________________________________________________ existing house has reached the end of it useful lifespan. We need these variances to build an _______________________________________________________________________________ appropriately sized new house with the same lot utilization as other legal lots. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ SECTION 2 - AREA CHARACTER - CONT'D: Granting the variance on LDC 25-2-492(D) _______________________________________________________________________________ "minimum lot width" will not change the area character since other new houses of similar size and _______________________________________________________________________________ scope already exist. Granting a variances on LDC 25-2 Subchapter F Article 2.6A "Side Setback _______________________________________________________________________________ Planes" and LDC 25-2 Subchapter F, Article 2.7 "Sidewall Articulation" (on the interior lot line _______________________________________________________________________________ between 703 and 705 Fletcher) will not have an adverse impact on the adjacent lots since the _______________________________________________________________________________ limitation will remain unchanged for the property lines to the west of 705 Fletcher and the East of _______________________________________________________________________________ 703 Fletcher. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ We no not believe these variances will set a precedent as this condition of having a single owner _______________________________________________________________________________ with 2 side by side 35' wide lots is quite unique and not a condition found elsewhere in the _______________________________________________________________________________ neighborhood. | Board of Adjustment General/Parking Variance Application 6/26/20 | Page 8 of 8 D-5/6 D-5/7 Foristar Development, Inc 612 Crestwood Dr Kingsland, TX 78639 John Meyer 210-882-6263 RE: Request Variances for two SF-3 Lots: 703 Fletcher St 705 Fletcher St To reduce lot width requirement Relief on side setback planes Relief on sidewall articulation SUMMARY OF VARIANCE REQUESTS Here are the land development codes we seek a variance from: Variance 1: LDC 25-2-492 (D) SF-3 minimum lot width requirement of 50’ Code specifying 50’ lot: We are asking for a variance from the 50’ minimum lot width so that we are able to be considered a legal lot with the existing 34’-9” lot width. Variance 2: LDC 25-2 Subchapter F Article 2.6A “Side Setback Planes” Code specifying the 45 degree angle above 15’ for the mcmansion tent: We are asking to remove the side setback plane along the shared property line between the two lots. Variance 3: LDC 25-2 Subchapter F Article 2.7 “Sidewall Articulation” Code specifying a 4’ deep and 10’ wide sidewall articulation at every 36’: We are asking to remove the requirement for articulation along the shared property line between the two lots. Reasonable Use: This application demonstrates to the board how the zoning regs applicable to the property do not allow for a reasonable use of the property This lot was created in March of 1948 and received water and wastewater services at that time as well. There has been a house located on this lot for most of the time since its creation and has been sold to different owners over the years. (Presentation page 1: AREA MAP) Single family residential use in SF3 is a reasonable use. LDC 25-2-492 (D) mandates a minimum of 50’ width for an SF-3 lot. Therefore, without a variance the subject property could not have a house built on it. Had it been built prior to 1948, it would have received land status. A lot of less than 50’ width is not uncommon as there are approximately 60 lots within 1000’ of subject property less than 50’ wide. (Presentation page 4: NEIGHBORHOOD MAP) We have presented to the neighborhood zoning commission as well as the neighborhood steering committee. D-5/8 Hardship: A) This application demonstrates to the board how the hardship for which the variance is requested is unique to the property. Hardship should be specific to the property for which the variance is being requested B) This application demonstrates to the board why the hardship is not general to the area in which the property is located. Describe how the hardship relating to the site is different from to other properties in the area. The subject property is 35’ wide and 198’ deep for a total of 6,941 SF of land which is a similar land area to that of a standard lot. Both of our hardships are created as a result of the substandard lot width. The first hardship is that the narrow lot width in combination with the side setback plane (LDC 25-2 Subchapter F Article 2.6A) limit the potential building width to 14’-6” wide at 25’ above grade and 4’-6” wide at 30’ above grade. A typical 50’ wide lot would be limited to potential building width of 30’ wide at 25’ above grade and 20’ wide at 30’ above grade. We are asking a variance from the side setback plane along the common property line between the 2 adjacent lots in order to allow us to build 19’-6” wide at 25’ above grade and 14’-6” wide at 30’ above grade. (Presentation Page 3: SITE SECTION) The second hardship is that the narrow lot width in combination with the setback articulation requirements (LDC 25-2 Subchapter F Article 2.7) limit the potential building width to an unreasonable size. The possible building width is limited to 25’ wide (5’ setback on either side) and 17’ at the required articulation (4’ articulation on either side). A typical 50’ wide lot would be limited to 40’ at the setbacks and 32’ at the required articulation. We are asking a variance from the setback articulation requirements along the common property line between the 2 adjacent lots. Houses built on 50’ wide lots would not have either of these hardships. This hardship is not general to the area because most of the lots are over 50’ wide or have already received land status determination. After 70 years, the existing houses on these lots have reached the end of their lifespan. We need these variances to build appropriately-sized new houses and the same building rights as other lots. D-5/9 Area Character This application demonstrates to the board how the variance will not alter the character of the area adjacent to the property, will not impair the use of adjacent conforming properties and will not impair the purpose of the zoning regulation Granting the requested variances will not alter the character of the area. Conversely, the variances will work to preserve the character of the area by allowing for the design and sizing of new houses that will look more like the existing houses on the lots as well as the new houses built in the area. There are numerous new houses that have been recently built in the area. Granting the variances on LDC 25-2 Subchapter F Article 2.6A “Side Setback Planes” and LDC 25-2 Subchapter F Article 2.7 “Sidewall Articulation” on the interior lot line between 703 & 705 Fletcher will not have adverse impacts on adjacent lots since the limitation will remain unchanged for the property lines to the West of 705 Fletcher and East of 703 Fletcher. We do not believe that these variances will set a precedent as this condition, having a single owner with 2 side- by-side 35’ wide lots, is quite unique and not a condition found elsewhere in the neighborhood. Parking Parking is not affected Summation In summation, I ask the Board of Adjustment to approve these variances so the properties can be utilized in an efficient manner consistent with the current and future needs of the immediate area. D-5/10 Foristar Development, Inc 612 Crestwood Dr Kingsland, TX 78639 210-882-6263 Cover Letter December 18, 2020 City of Austin Board of Adjustment Don Leighton-Burwell, Chair One Texas Center 505 Barton Springs Austin, Texas 78704 RE: Request Variances for two SF-3 Lots: 703 Fletcher St 705 Fletcher St To reduce lot width requirement Relief on side setback planes Relief on sidewall articulation Mr. Don Leighton-Burwell, chair and Board Members: We are seeking to obtain variances necessary to build two new single-family homes of a size, scope, and design commensurate to other new homes in the urban core of Austin and the Bouldin Creek area. Additionally the variances are necessary to achieve the full bundle of rights available with regard to Floor to Area Ratio (FAR) and Impervious Cover (IC) enjoyed by other lots that are 50’ or wider. The owner has acquired 2 lots adjacent to one another on Fletcher Street. Each lot is 35’ wide and 198’ deep. Both lots were created at the same time in March of 1948. It is fair and right the City of Austin should have ordinances so that existing homeowners are protected from newly built outsized structures crowding them, or otherwise impacting the reasonable enjoyment of their property. When any such condition did not exist at the time homeowners acquired their property, it is appropriate that it be considered carefully before allowing such condition to arise afterward. In keeping with the spirit of the City’s intention, we have only requested variances along the shared lot line between 703 & 705 Fletcher since all future owners of these two houses will see this condition prior to choosing to buy, and do not need the protection afforded by the ordinances - especially since the requested variances are subtle and do not affect the character of the area. We have not asked for any variances on the side of our lots that abut any neighbor. In this way they keep what they originally bargained for.
