MANNA CUSTOM DESIGN-BUILD 111 E 17th ST, #12234 | Austin, TX 78701 Deficiencies Observed - Existing Structure at 1001 Lott AVE ❏ Site is overgrown and unmaintained; ❏ Fences are leaning and rotted in multiple locations and in need of replacement; ❏ Black top is in a state of disrepair and has sustained multiple large cracks on parking area; ❏ Impervious coverage of lot exceeds allowable by significant margin and there is a camper and covered shed at the rear of the property that were added as well; ❏ Multiple electrical safety issues - conductor lines run outside of exterior walls and from light pole and not properly sheathed in conduit; ❏ Framing members of roof and covered porch areas exhibit sagging or leaning - not properly braced or supported for adequate span; ❏ Life-Safety Issue--Light pole on south side of property is leaning >30-degrees; ❏ General state of disrepair consistent throughout property; ❏ Foundation does not have adequate exposure above existing grade and brick landings do not have proper weep holes exposed - likely foundation settling and damage has occurred and/or is occurring. Interior wall sections also likely to have sustained moisture damage as noted in multiple stress fractures along vertical brick joints; ❏ Plumbing drain lines are outboard of wall in multiple locations and not properly protected from UV exposure per code; ❏ Metal gas line is terminated over one window pictured and not capped.

I am for the demo and new construction for this project. This was deemed a historic church. However, in my findings I've found that this was a residential single family dwelling home up until 2014 when the owners started to utilize their home as a community church. Attached are supporting documents. Thank you for your time and consideration.

I am participating in this meeting as a neighbor within 500 ft. of the proposed demolition of a church located at 1001 Lott Ave. After speaking to Ms. Gaudette of the Planning and Zoning Department, I understand that the building itself does not meet the requirements necessary for preservation however, I wanted to use this opportunity to speak for myself and my neighbors who would like consideration to be paid to the history and culture of the neighborhood by the builders who will ultimately be demolishing this building. I haven’t lived in this neighborhood for that long in comparison to some of the families I have seen leave the neighborhood, selling their single‐story, single‐family homes to builders who have demolished them and replaced them with two‐story, two‐unit modern architecture homes, cheaply and quickly built. The black and latino families I have known and met and interacted with are becoming sparse in this neighborhood, which I understand is an issue facing all of Austin. The building that is being demolished is a Spanish speaking church with long‐ standing ties to this neighborhood and is just another sign of the diminishing presence of minorities in our neighborhood, East Austin, and Austin as a whole. Churches, community buildings, and residences are being demolished all over our neighborhood, to be replaced with out‐of‐character architecture. The Capital Metro #2 was removed from our neighborhood last year, further alienating those in our neighborhood who need access to public transportation to get to their churches and community buildings, likely contributing to the need for this congregation to move since a bus stop was less than 20 feet away from this church. With the congregation not able to access the church with public transportation, it likely was a reason to sell. I understand that this building does not meet the requirements for preservation status but it is a tragedy to demolish this building and replace it with irrelevant residential buildings. When I moved onto my street, it had only single‐story, single‐family homes. And in the past year, we now have 10 new two‐story, two units per lot on five lots, with two more to come shortly. For a street that has only 35 lots, this has significant impact on the culture of our street. The demolition of this church will surely add more units to our streets, continuing to dilute the culture of our neighborhood. I’m using this …

Questions for Historic Commission regarding 4300 Ave D (Clark-Emmert): 1. there are two doors that were not present when the house was constructed, that are currently unused/unusable: a) on the west side, facing the alley a door leads to the hallway containing the laundry. We have not opened as long as we’ve lived in the house. b) on the north side facing 4302 Ave D is a door that is covered by plywood and drywall on the interior c) We would like to remove both doors and concrete stoops and replace with either siding (north side) and is in the back of the pantry. or a matching window (west side) 2. There is rot in some of the sleeping porch window frames, and one contractor has recommended replacing them with clad units of the exact same size and lite configuration. I believe these windows are from when the sleeping porch was enclosed – roughly the 1940’s North door West door from sidewalk West door from yard 4300 site plan 4300 floor plan

703 Oakland Avenue Inspection Report : Exterior Walls Deficient: Significant and detrimental water damage observed at wall assemblies. Condition is most severe at east wall and "garage" transition. Other locations included around all wall openings (doors, windows, etc.). As repairs are conducted, additional areas are expected to be discovered. The water damage is correlated with deferred maintenance, missing flashing and weatherization details and poor construction practices. If ignored, condition will progress. Visible active termites Smoot Terrace Design Standards : Exterior Walls If replacement of the historic exterior wall materials is necessary, choose a material similar in dimensions, profile, reveal, and texture to the historic material, and install the new materials so that they do not damage adjacent historic fabric and so that they maintain the planar relationships and joint patterns that existed historically relative to window frames, door frames, and other exterior features What Katie Did: Discussion with OWANA zoning members Selected tear-drop siding based on the historical significance and relates to the character of the homes built in 1930s. Installed flashing and water barrier (zip board) for long term preservation. Replaced window molding with pressure-treated wood for long term preservation but maintaining same architectural design from 1938. Inspection Report : Windows Deficient: The windows are in over-all very poor condition. The majority of windows observed with water penetrations issues, air infiltration issues, deteriorated glazing, cracked panes and damaged/missing counter balance springs, impeded egress (can not escape during emergency - windows do not open). Smoot Terrace Design Standards : Windows 1. Avoid alterations that enlarge or relocate window openings 2. Retain and repair all components of existing historic windows unless HPO staff and/or the HLC agree that the individual component is deteriorated beyond repair 3. If replacement of historic windows is necessary, use windows that are the same size and match the dimensions, profile, and configuration of historic windows 4. Substitute materials are appropriate if they maintain the profile and finish appearance of the historic window. What Katie Did 1. Did not enlarge or relocate any window openings with the exception two rear kitchen windows (south wall - facing backyard) 2. Retained and repaired all possible historic windows by mixing and matching components which were salvageable. 3. For necessary replacement of historic windows, used windows that are the same size and match the dimensions, profile, and configuration of historic windows 4. Substituted materials are appropriate to the profile and finish …
