Old West Austin Neighborhood Association Post Office Box 2724 Austin, Texas 78768 September 2, 2021 elaine.ramirez@austintexas.gov Board of Adjustment c/o Elaine Ramirez Senior Planner and Board of Adjustment Liaison City of Austin Development Services Re: Variance Case No. C15-2021-0081 - Letter of Opposition of Variance for 1308 9 ½ Street, Austin, Texas (the “Property”) Dear Members of the Board of Adjustment: The Old West Austin Neighborhood Association (“OWANA”) opposes a variance for additional FAR to add a second story addition at the above-referenced Property. There is no hardship in this case. The owners purchased the property knowing the limitations. By granting a variance the Board would be setting a precedent that a mere change in living situation would be a justification for obtaining a variance to increase FAR, impervious cover, building envelope and any number of other code regulations. Sincerely, Adrienne Goldsberry, Chair Old West Austin Neighborhood Association E-4/1
