Housing Certification Semizi LLC and Plancaster LLC 5107 and 5109 Lancaster Ct. Austin, TX 78723 (ID 850-5960) TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: Owners Semizi LLC and Plancaster LLC (development contact Eyad Kasemi; ph: 512.761.6161; email: eyad@capitalahousing.com) is planning to develop The Lancaster, a 23-unit mixed-use development at 5107 and 5109 Lancaster Ct. Austin, TX 78723 Three (10%) of the units will be leased to households at or below 80% Median Family Income (MFI). The project will be subject to a minimum 5-year affordability period after issuance of a certificate of occupancy, unless funding requirements are longer. The Housing and Planning Department (HPD) certifies the proposed project meets the S.M.A.R.T. Housing standards at the pre-submittal stage. Since 10% (3) of the units will serve households at or below 60% MFI, the development will be eligible for 25% waiver of fees listed in Land Development Code, Chapter 25-1-704, as amended or other fees waived under a separate ordinance except for Austin Water Utility (AWU) Capital Recovery Fees. This development is not fully in accordance with the requirements under the Texas Local Government Code, Chapter 395.16(g) and 42 U.S.C. Section 12745 (A)(1) as it relates to how housing qualifies as affordable housing and therefore none of the units will be eligible to receive Austin Water Utility Capital Recovery Fee (CRF) waivers. The expected fee waivers include, but are not limited to, the following fees: AWU Capital Recovery Fees Building Permit Site Plan Review Construction Inspection Demolition Permit Fee Concrete Permit Electrical Permit Subdivision Plan Review Parkland Dedication Fee (by separate ordinance) Regular Zoning Fee Mechanical Permit Plumbing Permit Zoning Verification Land Status Determination Building Plan Review Prior to issuance of building permits and starting construction, the developer must: ♦ Obtain a signed Conditional Approval from the Austin Energy Green Building Program stating that the plans and specifications for the proposed development meet the criteria for a Green Building Rating. (Contact Austin Energy Green Building: 512-482-5300 or greenbuilding@austinenergy.com). ♦ Submit plans demonstrating compliance with the required accessibility or visitability standards. Before a Certificate of Occupancy will be granted, the development must: ♦ Pass a final inspection and obtain a signed Final Approval from the Green Building Program. (Separate from any other inspections required by the City of Austin or Austin Energy). ♦ Pass a final inspection to certify that the required accessibility or visitability standards have been met. 8 of 243♦ An administrative hold will be placed on the building permit, until the following items have been completed: 1) the number of affordable units have been finalized and evidenced through a sealed letter from project architect and/or engineer, 2) a Restrictive Covenant stating the affordability requirements and terms has been filed for record at the Travis County Clerk Office. The applicant must demonstrate compliance with S.M.A.R.T.
