P-1/1 P-1/2 From: To: Cc: Subject: Date: Ray Collins Ramirez, Elaine Re: 4320 James Casey C15-2019-0046 Wednesday, February 12, 2020 6:07:56 PM *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Following up on and updating my October 21st email, Ms. Nelson brought an engineer, Jerry Perales, to the November 7th contact team meeting. They both presented. There was agreement that the only way forward for this property was via a site plan application. This based on what DSD wrote when it denied 2018-129959 DA, what the BoA commissioners said at their August 12th meeting, and the SMNP contact team's policy that votes on variances will only occur after DSD's site plan review. Mr. Perales stated he could submit a site plan to DSD before Thanksgiving. My personal observation was that the owner, Dr. Wu, put the property up for sale instead. As you are well aware, Mr. Perales submitted a site plan on January 13th prior to that evening's BoA meeting at which you presented this case as part of a discussion of multiple postponements. See the link. https://youtu.be/OVfpiuyv_xU Yesterday, Ms. Nelson sent me an email requesting a letter of no objection for the March 9th BoA meeting. I reminded her of the outcome of the November contact team meeting, related my knowledge of events since that meeting, and informed her that her variance request would not appear on a SMNP contact team agenda until after DSD's site review. As of close of work on February 12th, Amanda shows that Mr. Perales' January 13th site plan application has failed its completeness check. My personal observation while driving down James Casey on February 10th is that the property is once again up for sale. In summary, last fall Ms. Nelson asked me for a letter of no objection to her parking variance, I put her on the agenda for our November 7th meeting, and yesterday she once again asked me for a letter of no objection as if the contact team's November meeting and subsequent events had never occurred.

Subject: Date: Case #C15-2020-0013 Friday, March 06, 2020 7:56:49 AM *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Ms. Ramirez, I am writing to you because I work and will not be able to attend the application hearing on Monday, 3/9/2020. The applicant, Leah Bojo 512 807 2918, owner at 2700 East 5th JV, LLC; 512 835 4890, is requesting a variance to increase the maximum allowable Compatibility Height requirements of Article 10, Compatibility Standards, Division 2- Development Standards, Section 25-2-1063(C)(2)..... As a nearby property owner I am opposed to allowing this variance given the location, density, traffic density, and size of this land plot. If the City of Austin approves this request I ask that immediate solutions for the existing inadequate traffic pattern be remedied as well as a solid study and remedy for the influx of traffic, construction vehicles and equipment, impact on pedestrians and homeowners immediately at this site, and the lack of responsible traffic stops (this intersection is dangerous with near misses several times a day, the street is narrow on the other end, and people often drive in the center of the road and cut off oncoming vehicles).

They both presented. There was agreement that the only way forward for this property was via a site plan application. This based on what DSD wrote when it denied 2018-129959 DA, what the BoA commissioners said at their August 12th meeting, and the SMNP contact team's policy that votes on variances will only occur after DSD's site plan review. Mr. Perales stated he could submit a site plan to DSD before Thanksgiving. My personal observation was that the owner, Dr. Wu, put the property up for sale instead. As you are well aware, Mr. Perales submitted a site plan on January 13th prior to that evening's BoA meeting at which you presented this case as part of a discussion of multiple postponements.

Due to this, we reached back out to the neighborhood to better understand our options as well try to gain support for an additional height increase on our project to minimize the impacts during the City review process. Over the weekend, I met with the neighborhood and in exchange for support for a 4 story/60-ft height on the commercial component on our project, we are going to reserve an additional 3 residential units as Affordable. With this being said, we need to update our original application, re-notify and in turn, request one final postponement (to April) due to this. I have CCed the Neighborhood Chair in case Daniel needs to serve as the “requestor” for said postponement.
