Per Austin Monitor; Housing, Make is easier to build ADU's, city staffers tell Council

  HOUSING Make it easier to build ADUs, city staffers tell Council In response to a City Council resolution last year aimed at making building accessory dwelling units more feasible for low- and moderate-income Austinites, city staffers have come back with several recommendations for Council action in the form of a  memo  from Rosie Truelove, director of the Housing and Planning Department.  ADUs, which are smaller homes built next to larger single-family homes and typically rented out, are seen as a strategy for creating denser, more affordable housing in single-family neighborhoods. City code allows one ADU on lots with Single Family-Standard Lot (SF-2) and Family Residence (SF-3) zoning, as long as the unit is less than 1,100 square feet and is 10 feet from all other buildings.  One of staff’s primary recommendations included loosening regulatory barriers to ADU construction – something that anyone, but particularly low- to moderate-income homeowners, could b...

Check it out! I got to meet Max Nofziger, Local ATX living Legend...

  Here is a Max Nofziger Biography I found online circa the year 1997, yes 1997. Michael "Max" Nofziger's birth was heralded by a Midwestern tornado ripping the roof off the family's barn. Born on March 20, 1948 of hardy Swiss Mennonite pioneers, Max is the sixth generation of the farmers and teachers who settled the Black Swamp region of Northwest Ohio. Max's mother thought she would be safer in a storm at a local hospital rather than in the family's log cabin home. So much for history. Max learned about responsibility and hard work early helping on the family farm, raising corn and feeding beef cattle and hogs. He graduated in 1966 from Archbold High School, Valedictorian and vice-president of his class of 88 students. He won an academic scholarship to Adrian College, Adrian, Michigan and graduated in 1970 with a degree in political science and a teaching certificate. In the early 1970s Max traveled the United States extensively, living in different parts of...
