MLK Jr. Blvd Application for Demolition and Re-Zoning > > > Dear Commissioner, I am writing to ask that more time be allowed for discussion and conference with the developer on this project. Our Historic District just received images today and time is needed to consider the project. This project has great ramifications to our Historic District, and we are very concerned about granting demolition permits and re-zoning before concerns are addressed: It is adjacent to an elementary school; height of building will impact the elementary What is the number of units planned, amount of parking, entrances and exits? Have environmental studies been completed? What will the impact be on well established entities like the funeral home, hospice facility and the Rogers- Washington-Holy Cross Historic District? So many concerns that have not been given time to discuss. Please do Not allow this project to move forward with demolition and re-zoning. Thank you, Patricia Calhoun, RID, IIDA, ASID, CLIPP Patricia Calhoun, RID, IIDA, ASID, CLIPP THE PERFECT ADDITION 2401 Givens Avenue Austin TX 78722 972-814-6543 (Cell) “We may have all come on different ships, but we are in the same boat now” Martin Luther King, Jr. CAUTION: This is an EXTERNAL email.
