From: To: Ian M. Ellis Ramirez, Elaine; Ramirez, Diana; Subject: Date: 1003 Kinney BOA: URGENT Friday, April 08, 2022 12:08:06 PM *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Elaine, I received a voicemail from you that was partially broken up. I am out of town with limited phone service. I called you back and left a voicemail. I understand that you mentioned something about potentially not enough board members available for Monday. The BOA needs to do whatever it takes to provide a fair vote - we obviously can’t plan for the staffing shortages or who’s abstaining or recusing but that should not prevent our case from being heard fairly and should not set up our case to be denied simply by numbers of available members. I recommend escalating this through Legal and the Chair and Vice Chair to find a solution. If another postponement is required until additional staffing is available that would be preferable over our case being denied purely because of numbers or the lack thereof. I am not available by phone or email until Monday late afternoon. I recommend you coordinate everything directly with the MF Architecture team CCd here as they have full authority and permission to act on our behalf. I appreciate the heads up but again this is simply too short notice from the members when they’ve had a month to get this planned and ready to go for Monday. I also know you’re doing as much as you can to coordinate and communicate this so thank you. Ian M. Ellis, AIA, NCARB, RID Architect 210.606.7880 CAUTION: This email was received at the City of Austin, from an EXTERNAL source. Please use caution when clicking links or opening attachments.
