Sturgill, Hunter From: Sent: To: Cc: Subject: Commissioners: Bill W < Sunday, May 31, 2026 5:31 PM Historic Preservation Office 3304 Oakmont Blvd. PR-2026-053766, HR 2026-059342 External Email - Exercise Caution The Historic Review Committee of the Bryker Woods Neighborhood Association has reviewed the applicant’s plans to add a rear addition and remodel the front porch and add a carport at this property. The current home was built in 1947 and is a Contributing Property to the Old West Austin Historic District, which we consider to be of importance. The members of our HLC committee have no problem with the addition to the rear of the property, but are concerned that the remodel of the front porch, change in window and carport will substantially change the front of the home and will remove it from being a Contributing Property of the OWAHD. If this is the case, we are wondering if the Commission and the property owners might consider making changes to the front which would allow the home to remain a Contributing Property. Overall, the modifications indicate that the owners just need a little more room in their home and we are glad they are willing to remodel and stay in Bryker Woods, rather than sell and/or demo the house! We very much value our neighbors and are always grateful when then keep and just remodel their homes. Thank you for your consideration. --Bill Woods, Chair Historic Review Committee Bryker Woods NA Living on Earth is expensive but it does include a free trip around the Sun.
