Dear Mr. Wiseman,
My name is William Templeton, and I am a resident of Round Rock.
My wife and I purchased 611 Spring Street last year in the downtown Round
Rock area . The reason for this letter is to request removal of a tree to allow
us to build our home. We have three children, one of whom is in her first year
of high school in Round Rock, one in college and the other serving in the
Army. We would like to build a home that will accommodate all three of our
children as well as our mothers in-law, when the time comes.
Our goal is to build a five bedroom home approximately 4,000 square feet,
but the tree on the property is creating a hindrance. The home is limited to a
width of 60ft to oblige the required setbacks, which means our home will
have to be deeper. The critical root zone of the tree expands too far to the
front of the property where the home must be built, per the MU-2 zone.
Additionally, there are utility lines at the front of the property, so our home
will need to be pushed back farther than the loft maximum front setback. To
overcome these obstacles, we are requesting permission to remove the tree.
I appreciate that this will take time and further necessary steps to reach a
decision, but we are hoping to move forward with our house plans before
year end. We are willing to take any action to mitigate the removal of the
tree.
Your time and attention is appreciated.
Sincerely,
William Templeton
