New Elroy Road entrance sign Item 3/1-PRESENTATION One • Our current entrance sign is easily lost from the distance. As we continue to develop our main entrance, with focus moving to Elroy Road due to the expansion of lanes, we need this entrance to be clear and identifiable. • Using a 40ft tall double sided sign, our guests will be able to find our entrance without issues. View of intersection toward East View of intersection toward West Item 3/2-PRESENTATION Two A 30ft sign would put the screen too close in proximity to the intersection. The sign has a large video element and could cause distractions if installed this low. Item 3/3-PRESENTATION Three • With the recent lane expansion, Elroy Road will become a new main entrance, likely becoming more utilized than our 812 entrance. This will help alleviate the traffic issues we have seen in the past. Having this entrance be as identifiable as possible will help that mission. • The entrance sign is an important identifier of the property as well as a tool that communicates to our neighbors and attendees about events and activities happening on property. It is important that this sign is the correct size and scale and clearly visible – especially as it pertains to traffic updates and traffic control. Item 3/4-PRESENTATION Thank you for your consideration. We understand the rules and regulations, and feel that raising the height of the sign is not a substantial deviation from the current allowance. We look forward to the positive impact this sign will have. Item 3/5-PRESENTATION

The Plan 38th Street 509 E 38th Street Case #C15-2022-0043 Eric Goff L i b e r t y S t r e e t • Original lot (outlined in green) is 14,027 SF corner lot with a 1954 home on it. Home is in good condition. • Subdividing into Lot 1 and Lot 2 • New Lots: • Lot 1: faces and has driveway access to 38th Street, is 8,230 SF, and contains the existing 1954 house • Lot 2: has access on Liberty street. 5,770 SF . Has 50 ft of frontage (minimum allowed by code). Plan is to build a home on this lot Item 6/1-PRESENTATION The Variance 38th Street 509 E 38th Street Case #C15-2022-0043 Eric Goff L i b e r t y S t r e e t • Lot 2 (the new lot) does not need any variances, it meets code. • Lot 1 (with existing house) • Due placement of the existing house, we need a 1 foot variance to the set back requirement. • The house needs a 10 ft set back, but is 8 inches too far toward the back of the lot. Item 6/2-PRESENTATION The Findings 509 E 38th Street Case #C15-2022-0043 Eric Goff Required Findings: (A) reasonable use: A subdivision would require the demolition of the existing 1954 house that is representative of the character and scale of the area. (B) Hardship unique to property and not general: The Property includes an existing 1954 house that is typical for the area and worth preserving. The placement of the house by 8 inches presents a challenge that not all area lots share. (C) Adjacent Property: a one foot variance to the setback will not impair the use of any surrounding properties Item 6/3-PRESENTATION 509 E 38th Street Case #C15-2022-0043 Eric Goff The Potential Outcomes If variance is granted: The Variance will allow the new house to stay as is. If variance is not granted: Without the variance, the house will have to be demolished before the subdivision can be approved. See back up materials for a letter from COA Subdivision official that says the variance or demolition is needed before subdivision can be approved Item 6/4-PRESENTATION The House Built in 1954 509 E 38th Street Case #C15-2022-0043 Eric Goff Item 6/5-PRESENTATION Preservation Austin 509 E 38th Street Case #C15-2022-0043 Eric Goff July 27 – the Advocacy Committee of Preservation …

North Loop Neighborhood Association Board of Adjustment 301 W. 2nd St. Austin, TX 78701 Subject: North Loop Neighborhood Association and proposed development at 5413 Guadalupe To the Members of the Board of Adjustments this afternoon, the 9th of September 2022. My name is Brian Bedrosian and I am currently serving as the Vice President of the North Loop Neighborhood Association (NLNA), a post I have held since 2019. I am writing this letter on behalf of the NLNA to provide some insight into the neighborhood’s past positions on projects such as that being proposed by Webber Studio and their clients that might help to inform how the NA would vote once we are able to properly consider the project. Marek Hnizda reached out to me regarding this project and we met over Zoom to discuss the proposed variance to the setback along Guadalupe along with their proposed project and what it might look like. We were not able to bring this in front of the neighbors for a formal vote prior to your meeting on the evening of the 12th of this month – so my comments here are simply an idea of our values and how we have responded to similar proposals. In general, our neighbors have tended to vote in favor of projects that show a considered investment in quality housing within our neighborhood with a focus on affordability, family-oriented units where possible, sustainability and increased density. Our neighborhood plan has sought to support a more urban feel to our neighborhood that aspires to provide space for a more diverse and inclusive community of people in the rapidly heated market that Austin finds itself in. With this in mind, the project per the current proposal is within the parameters of something we might support. As you may recall we were recently in front of the Board in support of a much larger VMU project at 201 East Koenig Lane at the southeast corner of Koenig and Avenue F. That particular developer worked closely with our neighborhood and PARD to create a project that served the needs of the developer, the aspirations of the neighborhood and the mission set forth by PARD’s Parkland Dedication Ordinance. We strongly encourage Webber Studio and their clients to continue to engage our neighborhood throughout the design process to seek a similarly mutually beneficial design. While I am unable to provide an official neighborhood …

Page 1 of 1 page

Our property is brown in this image. We received signatures of support from 6 nearby neighbors at 5 properties. Those in support are highlighted in green. The house on Texas Ave was originally concerned and asked for a postponement at a previous HOA meeting, but is now in support. The neighbor directly behind the property is still not in support and prefers the property to be subdivided so that both lots front on 38th street (which would not allow the existing house to be saved).
