Phase 5 was for the infrastructure of relocating a public reclaimed water main through the project and was completed and accepted by the City of Austin on 01/13/17. Phase 1 was the construction of Buildings 1, 2, 3, and 6 and the primary drainage facilities on Lots 1 and 4. Phase 1 was constructed and accepted by the City of Austin on 08/21/17. Phases 2, 3 & 4 are remaining on the project. We respectfully request a 3-year extension of the existing permit for Phases 2, 3 & 4. The current commercial real estate market is currently in flux and the owner is watching this closely, as well as continually leasing space in existing buildings. The owner has also been actively working on the building plans and building permitting for Phases 2-4. The extension request is to make sure with the COA permitting schedule, the construction for these phases can be started prior to the existing site plan permit administrative extension expiring (06/14/2020). We hope that you find this information complete and satisfactory to extend the site plan permit. Please contact me at 512-280-5160 if you have any questions. Thank you for your time and review of this project. Please let me know if you need any additional information in order to process this update. 4 of 6B-10 5 of 6B-10 6 of 6B-10
