City of Austin Planning Department P.O. Box 1088, Austin, TX 78767 -1088 www.austintexas.gov/planning January 24, 2024 EMERGENCE TR 4006AVEC LLC 1708 Willow St Austin TX 78702-4408 Re: Annual historic landmark inspection and partial ad valorem tax exemption Berner-Clark-Mercado House, 1807 E. Cesar Chavez Street, C14H-2000-0009 The Berner-Clark-Mercado House failed the annual historic landmark inspection due to the following conditions: Damaged porch deck, columns, trim; damaged foundation skirting; damaged fenestration; graffiti; work performed without historic review Please know that our goal is to work with you to preserve this significant historic property and bring it into compliance with program requirements. For the Historic Preservation Office to recommend a property as eligible for partial exemption from ad valorem taxes in 2024, we request that you address these deficiencies by February 24, 2024. If it is not possible to complete the necessary repairs within this timeframe, please provide a plan and timeline for the work to be performed, and we will work with you on a strategy for bringing the property into compliance. The Historic Landmark Commission will consider the inspection results at their March 6, 2024 meeting, in order to provide a recommendation to the Office of the Chief Appraiser by April 1 regarding which properties are eligible for the partial tax exemption. You may provide comments regarding the exemption for your property by attending the Commission meeting on Wednesday, March 6, 2024 at City Hall Council Chambers, 301 West 2nd Street beginning at 6:00 PM, or by providing written comments in advance of the meeting. The requirements for the partial ad valorem tax exemption for historic landmarks are established in the City of Austin’s Code of Ordinances, Title 11, Chapter 11-1, Article 2. §11-1-24 calls for the City to inspect each landmark property and certify that it “is being preserved and maintained as required by historic landmark regulation.” The City of Austin’s partial ad valorem tax exemption is based on Texas Tax Code §11.24. In its 86th legislative session, the Texas Legislature added requirements for owner consent or five years’ notice of a repeal or reduction of a historic tax exemption if the property “otherwise qualifies for the exemption.” Because this property has not received adequate maintenance, it presently does not meet the requirements of the City of Austin program and thus does not qualify for the exemption. Historic Preservation Office staff inspect each landmark to ensure that the property is …

Partially demolish and construct an addition, replace roof and windows, and construct a rear accessory dwelling unit. 1) Demolish carport at rear of property. 2) Restore exterior walls and replace windows and roofing. 3) Partially demolish the existing building at the rear southeast corner. 4) Construct a new two-story addition. The proposed addition, located immediately above the existing ridgeline, is two stories in height, with an irregular roofline and undivided fenestration. 5) Construct a two-story flat-roofed breezeway with roof deck from the addition to the rear ADU. 6) Construct a new ADU at the rear of the property. The proposed building has a side-gabled roof and is clad in stucco. It has fixed corner windows and a spiral staircase. ARCHITECTURE DESIGN STANDARDS One-story Folk Victorian house with partial-width inset porch, jigsawn porch trim, and wing-and-gable plan. The Robertson/Stuart & Mair Design Standards are used to evaluate projects within the historic district. The following standards apply to the proposed project: 1.2.1. Alterations to Contributing Buildings. This section of the design standards applies to historic features on exterior front walls, side walls within 15 feet of the front of the building, and roofs within 15 feet of the front of the building. It also applies to side walls and roofs if proposed alterations affect the property’s historic character. 1.2.1.1. Do not alter or remove historic features unless they are deteriorated beyond repair. The proposed project removes and replaces existing windows and doors. While the existing windows do not appear to be of historic age, the existing screen door and front door appear to be from the historic period. No documentation of deterioration was provided. 1.2.1.2. If replacing deteriorated historic features, match the original as close as possible. Proposed 2:2 window replacements appear appropriate, but the proposed new door does not appear to reflect the historic house’s style or era. 1.2.2. Specific Standards 1.2.2.1.

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS JUNE 5, 2024 HR-2024-047998 ROBERTSON/STUART & MAIR HISTORIC DISTRICT 1107 EAST 10TH STREET X – 1 PROPOSAL Construct an accessory dwelling unit. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS The proposed ADU is three stories in height. It has compound gabled and shed roofs, and is oriented with the entrance and garage toward the rear alleyway. It is clad in horizontal fiber cement siding and has a metal roof, fixed undivided windows, and divided casement/sash windows arranged in an irregular pattern. DESIGN STANDARDS The Robertson/Stuart & Mair Design Standards are used to evaluate projects within the historic district. The following standards apply to the proposed project: 1.4. New Construction New construction shall have the same street-front orientation and distance from adjacent buildings as the contributing buildings in the same block. The proposed ADU is oriented toward the alley and does not affect the primary street. Design new buildings so that they are compatible with and differentiated from historic buildings in the district. The proposed ADU appears appropriately differentiated. Design adjustments have been made to enhance compatibility. New construction should have floor-to-floor heights and roof heights that are the same or similar to those on contributing buildings throughout the district. The proposed ADU’s floor-to-floor heights appear consistent with the main house. The roof height is taller; however, the site topography appears to reduce its visibility from the street. Select materials for new construction that are the same as or similar to those found on contributing buildings existing in the district. The applicant has amended the design to enhance material compatibility. Summary The project meets most of the applicable standards. The applicant has amended the design in response to Committee feedback. PROPERTY EVALUATION The property contributes to the Robertson/Stuart & Mair Historic District. COMMITTEE FEEDBACK Simplify rooflines at secondary elevation if possible. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Concur with Committee feedback. Approve the application. LOCATION MAP X – 2
9 – 1 HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS JUNE 5, 2024 HR-2024-053560 SMOOT-TERRACE PARK HISTORIC DISTRICT 703 OAKLAND AVENUE PROPOSAL Construct a rear addition. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) Demolish an existing lean-to addition at the rear of the house. 2) Construct a glass breezeway between the rear of the historic building and the new addition. 3) Construct a two-story rear addition. The proposed addition is three stories in height, with two habitable floors above the ground-floor garage. It is clad in horizontal siding to match the existing house and has 2:2 and undivided casement windows. A spiral staircase at the south elevation provides access to the upper floor. 4) Construct a roof deck and sleeping porch at the top floor of the new addition. ARCHITECTURE The existing house is a two-and-a-half-story duplex with a side-gabled roof and 1:1 screened windows. It is clad in horizontal teardrop siding. DESIGN STANDARDS The Smoot-Terrace Park Design Standards are used to evaluate projects within the historic district. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Additions to Contributing Buildings 1. New additions should be compatible with the historic building by reflecting the scale, massing, and/or materials of the historic building, but differentiated enough so that they are not confused as historic or original to the building. Though the proposed addition is large in scale, its size, massing, and materials reflect the historic building, and its perpendicular orientation differentiates it from the original house. 2. If designing an addition in a contemporary style, reflect the scale, massing, and/or materials of the historic building; if designing an addition in a style that reflects the style of the historic building, differentiate the scale, massing, and/or materials, at least slightly. See 1. 3. Design new additions that are subordinate to and do not overpower the historic building. The proposed addition is subordinate to the historic building, except for the spiral staircase. However, though it dominates the secondary elevation, the staircase is not visible from the main streetscape. 4. Construct additions that avoid the removal or obstruction of any historic exterior features on the front of the building or the sides within 15 feet of the front. The proposed addition is compatible. 8. Modern materials such as fiber-cement siding are appropriate for additions, provided that the overall design is compatible with the historic building. The proposed materials are compatible. Summary The project meets the applicable standards. …

I have reviewed your staff report and understand this house does not meet the minimum requirements for Landmark Designation. I did remember that I had seen this address on the HLC agenda some time earlier in the year. I reviewed the May 1 HLC presentation and saw that there was no owner representation . The Commissioners were also concerned due to earlier discussions with the then owner that the plan was to restore the house. The Commission then voted to postpone this case . I think I have solved the mystery. The ownership has changed: Lance Blanks purchased the property from Theresa Guerra Massey 11/15/22 and made the original HLC presentations about what he proposed. Mr. Blanks did not move forward with what he had proposed to the HLC and sold the property. Raul Manasseh purchased the property 12/26/23. His plan is to demolish the existing house due to its condition and to construct a new home with two accessory dwellings using the new City Council ordinance for more housing.

Austin Historic Landmark Commission delays St. Edwards demolition permit On July 23 the Austin Historic Landmark Commission heard a request from St. Edwards University to demolish Andre Hall near the campus’s historic Main Building. Andre Hall is a few feet outside the National Historic Register District which was created in 1979. Angela Reed and Elloa Mathews presented SRCC’s request to the commission that the Andre Hall demolition permit be withheld until the university released its Master Plan approved last year. The university had asked for neighborhood input into changes proposed on campus that would impact life in Sherwood Oaks north of campus. Since the Master Plan had been approved last year but not released to the public, the type of structure proposed to replace Andre Hall had not been disclosed. SRCC requested that the commission withhold the demolition permit until St. Edwards released the Master Plan. During the hearing, commissioners asked St. Edwards when the Master Plan would be released and whether Andre Hall had any historic significance. The St. Edwards representatives stated that the building did not have historical significance despite Brother Andre Bessette being the first Holy Cross Brother to be canonized as a saint by the Catholic Church. His Wikipedia page describes Andre Hall being built in his honor. While the St. Edwards representative informed the commission that none of the university’s research on Andre Hall had revealed any historical significance, Commissioner Beth Valenzuela did a quick search in the Austin American-Statesman archives and discovered that the firm that designed Andre Hall, Julian and White of San Antonio, had also designed an early kitchen and dining hall, as well as the science building and Fleck Hall which has been restored. The Statesman archive also revealed mentions of the design firm’s work in the national historic register which could establish a need to save Andre Hall instead of demolish it. Commissioner Emily Reed said, “It’s a future possibility that the (historic) district could be expanded.” When the St. Edward’s representatives and city staff said they were unaware of this information, the commission suggested that St. Edwards go back and complete their research and postponed the release of the demolition permit. As far as releasing the Master Plan, there was a bit of subterfuge by St. Eds. The new architect reported that even though St. Edwards had approved the Master Plan update last year, they would go live with …

Learn why this is important External Email - Exercise Caution City of Austin Planning Department Historic Preservation Office, ATTN: Sam Fahnestock P.O. Box 1088 Austin, TX 78767-8810 SENT VIA EMAIL TO: preservation@austintexas.gov RE Case Number: HR 24-047998 – 1107 E 10TH ST Sam, I strongly object to this case, which is scheduled to be discussed at tomorrow’s Historic Landmark Commission meeting: Historic Landmark Commission Public Hearing: June 5, 2024 Case Number: HR 24-047998 – 1107 E 10TH ST Contact: Sam Fahnestock, (512) 974-3393 My comments are below. I will be attending the meeting in person and would like to speak on it. 1. This 3-story, 35-foot structure is a significant departure from size and scale of contributing homes in the district. Design Standards section 1.4 New Construction Requirements states (page D- 9): New construction should have floor-to-floor heights and roof heights that are the same or similar to those on contributing buildings throughout the district. (emphasis added) None of the ADUs pictured on pages 8-9, and none of the homes pictured on page 10 are contributing buildings. All were built before our local historic district designation in 2019. These large, inappropriate structures are exactly what the local historic district designation was meant to prevent. 2. The 4-bedroom, 2128 square foot Unit C does not further affordability goals. Design Standards section 1.1.1 PURPOSE states (page D-1): These standards also recognize the importance of Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) in providing homeowners with supplemental rental income, encouraging urban residential density in near-downtown neighborhoods, and increasing affordable housing options in areas of the city that are seeing a rapid rise in property values. Encouraging a dense, affordable, and diverse neighborhood will result in a greater ability and willingness to preserve the neighborhood’s historic homes. (emphasis added) A 2128 square foot unit is significantly bigger than any of the non-contributing ADUs pictured on pages 8-9, according to property information on TCAD’s site: 1004 E 9th St – built 2016, 698 square feet 1105 E 9th St – built 2018, 828 square feet 1104 E 8th St – build 2013, 1144 square feet 3. I encourage the applicant to work with GAIN to design a more compatible structure. Design Standards …
Page 1 of 1 Engineer’s Report SUBJECT: Foundation and framing performance and suitability for reuse 900 Spence Street, Austin, Texas 78702 JOB NUMBER: DATE OF SITE VISIT: 24045 May 1, 2024 At the request of builder Dominique Levesque, I visited the site to review the current performance of the building and to offer an opinion about its suitability for reuse in a renovation. This report is a summary of our discussion and my observations. Built in the 1960’s according to tax records, the house is a one-story bungalow style with a pier-and-beam foundation and wood-framed superstructure clad with siding. It is currently unoccupied and dilapidated. Most interior finishes have been removed to expose the studs. The foundations are a jumble of original cedar piers and replacement CMU piers of poor quality, which support 4x6 floor beams and 2x6 floor joists. Signs of damage from moisture and insects are widespread. The floor is not level, which is likely the result of soil movement and wood rot. The grade surrounding the house appears to be higher than grade in the middle of the crawlspace. The readily visible studs were generally in good condition. The ceiling and roof framing were mostly concealed by the wood ceiling, but through an opening the framing appeared to be 2x4 joists and rafters. The foundation piers must be replaced with piers built to current standards. Supplemental support in the form of additional piers and larger beams and joists may be necessary to support the weight of modern finishes. Crawlspace drainage must be corrected. All rotted beams, joists and studs must be found and replaced. The roof structure must be assessed and likely strengthened or replaced. Please call with any questions.

I also received similar input from Rubio that makes me think they are going to pull for discussion. I provided the updated information below from the Dec 13th agenda last year in an effort to help clarify that these are the cottages we intended to keep.

[ ] Hi there, I know there is a hearing on these properties tonight. I could not figure out what the approving or dissenting was in regards to, but I do not approve of these 2 properties being historically preserved due to the condition of the buildings currently and no interest in upkeep from the owners. The buildings are rotting away and racoons and cats have taken ownership of the homes.

1807 E Cesar Chavez - Historic Committee Review David Rudick, President, Rud Capital Executive Summary Rud Capital is looking to expand create a unified development plan between 1803, 1805, and 1807 E Cesar Chavez to create a multi-family development. Given the potential historic tax exemption available on 1807 E Cesar Chavez we are looking to preserve 1807 and renovate it to be a boutique hotel to be rented in its entirety for large group gatherings with the option for small events. The property was run as a youth hostel up until the pandemic led them to go out of business. The property was purchased by Rud Capital in November 2021 with the goal of folding it into the unified development parcel along with the adjacent properties. In 2023 after talking with city and realizing this property could get a standalone hotel license we decided to pivot and restore and renovate the property. Unfortunately during late ‘22 and ‘23 the property began to get vandalized and had some of its structural integrity damaged and compromised including: decking, railings, and siding. The property was repaired by Chris Pisculli. Now with the help of designer Leah Flippen from Luminary Designs we are looking to go beyond these repairs and revive the historic Victorian like charm into a functioning event and lodging hotel called Maison Rêve (House of Dreams) for the benefit of local Austinates and visitors to enjoy. We are Excited to work together with historic commission on bringing out this beautiful landmark house back to life. We also wanted to to note we have successfully completed similar types of historic preservation projects including 4004, 4006, and 4008 Avenue C which won the Austin Preservation Award in 2019.
