and it'll be a semi-detached property which is appropriate
under the code uh and my client mark mark pagano uh and the plans up he can describe uh any
anything that you are looking for you want to bring mr pagano on yes all right please mark you
available they'll be coming back in shortly
hey I'm here I could you please state your name is spelled for the stenographer
yes mark Pagano m-a-r-k p-a-g-a-n-o do you swear or firm to tell the truth the
truth nothing but the truth yes uh mark did you hear my testimony just now regarding your revised
plans for this property yes uh could you describe the changes that were made and um talk about how
this would be the the minimum size lot or the minimum size property that would be that would
make sense practically on a 20-foot wide lot yes so originally we were we were trying to build this
20 feet because the neighborhood properties both had existing side yards so we thought that maybe
um this could be built to fill length because the neighbors already had existing side yards
the rco is okay with that we made a few changes um we were denied which is fine uh we came back
to the drawing board to make this match the neighborhood a lot more um every house in that
on that side of the block i think has a 3.6 foot side yard our side yard is going to be four feet
a little bit bigger with a 16 foot house we think this is a um would be very nice addition
to the neighborhood we think it matches the twins and the semi-detached on the block
um and that's kind of where we are right now nothing further from art
uh eric do you have any questions um if i may uh briefly respond um uh first i just wanted to
acknowledge um you know council's uh statement about uh my client um i think the word you know
bothering um there was an earlier uh email about harassing um i just i don't think these are
appropriate to uh have into hearing but since he did introduce it i just want to say you know that
i object and i think this is um inappropriate um and i think also then with regard to the um
uh structure itself i recognize that there are some uh revisions um i would still note that um i
I don't believe this retains the the character of the the other properties neighborhood.
I'm particular with regard to the proposed height.
And I still think that that further changes would be required to have it conform to necessary and reasonable expectations of any development that would be allowed to go forward.
okay thank you uh questions from the board
now the roof deck was that part of what was on the plan before i kind of don't remember a roof
deck before yes mike it was and that was something that the community was okay with
because i don't see any roof decks any place else in the area yeah so the community yeah so initially
initially the original plan didn't have the setback uh so um kathy and sean from cedar park
asked me if we would be willing to do the eight foot setback so we changed that and they were okay
with that um it always had a roof deck it just had a um yeah it always it always had the pilot
house and the roof deck on the original plans we just set it back eight feet because initially it
went straight up okay because that's the building go ahead no no finish mic i'm sorry no i was
because the building on the the other new building I guess the building that
has addition third floor addition is set back on the third floor it doesn't have
a roof deck and that's the only other other other residential that looks like
it's has a three-story next question is the porch the same depth as the porch
that's adjacent to it that's going to be attached to yes that was not a look at
okay yeah it'll look like a twin it'll look at yes it'll look almost like a twin yeah that
was the other recommendation the um neighbors association asked if we could line it up with
the house to make it all the same level so we did make them changes as well to make it uh the roof
lines match and you can see it on uh right there on that uh first uh thing there we made it match to
at 5114 or 10 whatever that side one is there okay right just wanted to confirm that the rco
saw the new plans and um were continued to be in support yeah yeah they were not
yeah yeah they were not yep they said that they were they didn't have to change the letter they
yep they said that they they didn't have to change the letter they didn't have time
didn't have time to give me another meeting when i reached out to them uh two months ago um but
they were in support of either the 20 foot with the setback or the side yard they had
no opposition on either on the original letter i confirm that we don't go to the public for this
do we um we would we would go to the public only on the new information if there is anything
