FOURTH WORKSHOP, LLC 4304 Caswell Avenue Austin, TX 78751 23 October 2020 Ms. Elaine Ramirez, et. al. Board of Adjustment Austin, TX Re: 901 Terrell Hill Drive Request for Variance from the Land Development code, Section 25-2-492 Dear Members of the Board of Adjustment, Thank you for the second opportunity to speak about the property located at 901 Terrell Hill Drive. We have chosen to focus our efforts on requesting a variance from the Land Development Code, Section 25-2-492 (Site Development Regulations), which reduces the minimum front yard setback requirement from 25'-0" to 15'-0.” We no longer seek a variance that qualifies the garage, below the main level, as a basement. As confirmed by members of The Board in the October hearing, the property suffers from two characteristics that qualify as hardships: (1) a pie shape and (2) a steep slope. The widest portion of the lot occurs at the front of the property; and additionally, the grade slopes ten feet across the width of the lot and twenty-one feet from the rear to the front. The Owners purchased the property in 2014, with an intent to upgrade the existing house to suit their needs. After replacing appliances and cosmetically updating the interiors, the City informed them that the house, as it stood, was not code compliant. The roof structure, foundation, and wiring all needed to be brought up to code before a final CO could be given. As such, no permitted work could be pursued without a structural update and electrical service and wiring update which was not worth pursuing given the other limitations they were already working around and other quality issues they uncovered along the way. Faced with the decision of whether to invest a significant sum toward renovation, or else allocate those funds toward new construction, the Owners chose to remove and donate all of the improvements to Austin Habitat for Humanity ReStore and then demolish the home and design a new one—tailored specifically to them. Seven years and ~$700,000 dollars later, they are now requesting a variance that will deliver a quality design to the site, satisfy their immediate neighbor’s requests, and deliver their usability requirements. The variance is not being requested to maximize size of structure, conditioned space, FAR exemptions or project costs. As the fourth architectural outfit that the Owners have hired, we can speak to the myriad designs that fit on the …

From: To: Cc: Subject: Date: Craig Kuglen Ramirez, Elaine Case Number: C15-2020-0069 Sunday, November 08, 2020 7:34:25 AM *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** I live at 1310 Rockcliff Rd and am president of the Rockcliff Homeowners Association. I am writing for the members of this HOA and would like to submit the following information: 1230 Rockcliff Rd is a small lot and the current owner was aware of the size restrictions on that property when purchased. The lot is bordered by a “canal” on the south side which leads to a waterway 900-1000 feet long running north along the side of Rockcliff Rd. The residents of the properties on the waterway have 12 docks (and one not completed) and currently have 15 boats. Their only access to Lake Austin is via the canal adjacent to the above property. With no control of the boat size, speed or wave making capacity on Lake Austin, getting to and from the lake can be challenging. For safety reasons, these residents need a clear view of the lake. Building within 10 feet of the canal would create a danger for them. As I am scheduled for some cancer surgery on November 9th, I will be unable to attend the meeting. Could you please submit this information for me? Craig C. Kuglen CAUTION: This email was received at the City of Austin, from an EXTERNAL source.
