The following report of the Board of Adjustment was receivedi "Austin, Texas September 10, 1941 The Honorable Mayor and City Council Austin, Texaв Gentlemen: The following is a copy of a resolution which was passed by the Board of Adjustment at a meoting held on September 9, 1941, which is hereby respectfully submitted for your consideration: RESOLUTΙΩΝ. WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Austin, pursuant to the terme of Section 30 of the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Austin, has referred to the Zoning Board of Adjustment for its consideration a petition of Mr. W. L. Stark, et al., and other property owners on Lamar Boulevard, roquesting a change in the Use designation of the following described property: The property on both sides of Lamar Boulevard from West Ninth Street to West Twelfth Street, extending east to Shoal Creek and west to Baylor Street, from: "B" Residence District to "C" Commercial District; and WHEREAS, this petition was dated June 24, 1941, and referred to the Board of Adjustment on July 3, 1941, whereupon the Board held several hearings on this petition, at which hearings a large delegation of property owners from West Twelfth Street to Sixth Street appeared before the Board pleading for and against this change; and WHEREAS, the Board carefully considered all of the pleadings and arguments for and against this change, and individually and collectively examined the property from West Twelfth to West Sixth Streets and investigated present and prospective traffic conditions along the boulevard and proposed commercial developmonts in this area, as well as economic factors involved in the creation of the boulevard as it affects the property owners on either side of the same, and further considered change in its effect upon all the surrounding property and the need for further expansion of the present commercial district along West Twelfth Street as well as the future trend of development on this boulevard with respect to commercial expansion and otherwise in the light of the fundamental zoning principles; and 370 WHEREAS, the result of these hearings and investigations have convinced the Board that no change in the present zoning classifications should be made from West Sixth to West Ninth Streets as such a change would be promature and not in response to any demand or public necessity for further commercial development and that this area is still usable for Residence "B" purposes, but that the area from West Ninth to West Twelfth Streets is not now desirable for residential puгровев and 1s better suited for commercial uses; therefore, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT: THAT both sides of Lamar Boulevard from West Twelfth Street to the north line of West Ninth Street, extending to Shoal Oreek on the east and a depth of three original lots on the west to the center of the block between former Ruiz Street and Baylor Street be changed from "B" Residence District and Second Height and Area District to "O" Commercial District and First Height and Area District; and that no change be made in the present zoning classification of the property between West Ninth Street and West Sixth Street, for the following reasons: (1) That the majority of the property owners between West Ninth Street and West Twelfth Street request this change; (2) That nearly all this property is now under option for sale for commercial development; (3) That its character as a residence district no longer exists by virtue of the changed conditions due to the creation of the Boulevard; (4) That there appears to be sufficient demand for a further commercial community center to meet the need of an expanding residential growth of West Austin; (5) That the change of this area to First Height and Area District is especially recommended in order to safeguard the traffic which will develop along this Boulevard inasmuch as this will require all commercial buildings to be set back twenty-five feet from the front property line, permitting off-street parking for patrons and customers of the proposed commercial developments.
