reason for purchasing the lot as their son was handicapped and it was for his safety that the
lot not front Brazos Drive. Ms. Allsot presented letters from homeowners in the area in

builders. Mr. Speckman said he was the person that represented to the Allsots that the house
would face Loving Court. He present to the Board a copy of the addresses for SouthRidge

Gary Carswell, 611 Loving Court next door neighbor, he specifically ask which way the
house next door would face and was told that the lot would be addressed 613 Loving Court.

Debbie Holder, 1600 Pecos Dr. has now finished her plans to build at 915 Brazos Dr. across
from the Allsots lot said, her only objection was the garage opening onto Brazos Dr. as she
would be looking directly into the garage. Ms. Holder presented a letter to the Board from

directly across the street a garage is allowed to face the street.

DEAR CITY OF SOUTHLAKE BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT:
I HAVE LOT 51 BLOCK 2 IN SOUTHRIDGE LAKES UNDER CONTRACT
AT THIS TIME AND DO BELIEVE THAT THE VALUE OF THIS LOT WOULD
BE NEGATIVELY IMPACTED IF DIRECTLY ACROSS THE STREET A GARAGE
IS ALLOWED TO FACE THE STREET. I BELIEVE THE VALUE OF THIS
PARTICULAR LOT WOULD BE REDUCED AND THAT THE SUBDIVISION
r OVERALL SUFFERS WHEN GARAGES FACE DIRECTLY ONTO A STREET.
THANK YOU,
