BASIS FOR STAFF’S RECOMMENDATION: Staff supports the applicant’s request for Neighborhood Mixed Use land use because it is appropriate in this location near single family uses. The applicant proposes to rezone the property to LO-NP (Limited Office district – Neighborhood Plan) for an office use, which is a low-intensity commercial use. Navasota Street provides a local connection between three commercial corridors, Rosewood Avenue, East 11th Street, and East 12th Street. Neighborhood Mixed Use recognizes the role Navasota Street already plays in connecting residential and commercial areas and provides an opportunity for appropriately scaled neighborhood-serving uses. Site Below are sections of the Central East Austin Neighborhood Plan that staff believe supports the applicant’s request for Neighborhood Mixed Use land use. The plan supports neighborhood-serving commercial uses on commercial corridors. Although Navasota Street is not a commercial corridor, it essentially serves as a connector between three major commercial corridors. Staff believes a low-intensity neighborhood office use is appropriate in this location. 2 04 NPA-2026-0009.01 - Wesley Relocation Project; District 12 of 21 Planning Commission: August 25, 2026 LAND USE DESCRIPTIONS: EXISTING LAND USE: Single family - Single family detached or up to three residential uses at typical urban and/or suburban densities.

PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: August 25, 2026: Case is scheduled to be heard by Planning Commission. CITY COUNCIL ACTION: TBD ORDINANCE NUMBER: N/A ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is currently undeveloped land located at the southeast corner of Navasota Street and Cotton Street. It is proximate to two Imagine Austin Corridors, East 11th and East 12th Street, transit service, and other examples of limited office (LO) base district zoning. LO is a zoning category for an office use that serves neighborhood or community needs and that is located in or adjacent to residential neighborhoods. 05 C14-2026-0028 - Wesley Property Donation; District 11 of 11 C14-2026-0028 2 To the north of the subject tract (across Cotton Street) is one single family home constructed in approximately 2014. To the east is one single family home constructed in approximately 1950. To the south is one single family home constructed recently. To the west (across Navasota Street) are two single family homes constructed in approximately 1909 and 2024. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: Zoning should allow for reasonable use of the property. The subject tract is located on Navasota Street, which is an ASMP level 2 corridor, the same level as East 11th and 12th Street and Rosewood Avenue. It is approximately 500 feet south of East 12th Street which is an Imagine Austin Activity Corridor and approximately 600 feet north of East 11th Street which is an Imagine Austin Activity Corridor and part of the ASMP Transit Priority Network.

ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE: C14-2026-0041 (1076 Springdale Road) DISTRICT: 1 ADDRESS: 1076 Springdale Road ZONING FROM: GR-NP TO: GR-V-DB90-NP SITE AREA: approximately 3.28 acres (approximately 142,877 square feet) PROPERTY OWNER: Artesia Springdale QOZ, LLC AGENT: Drenner Group, PC (Drew Raffaele) CASE MANAGER: Jonathan Tomko, AICP (512) 974-1057, jonathan.tomko@austintexas.gov STAFF RECOMMEDATION: Staff recommends granting community commercial-vertical mixed use-density bonus 90- neighborhood plan (GR-V-DB90-NP) combining district zoning. For a summary of the basis of Staff’s recommendation, please see the basis of recommendation section below. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: August 25, 2026: Case is scheduled to be heard by Planning Commission CITY COUNCIL ACTION: TBD ORDINANCE NUMBER: N/A ISSUES: In December 2023, Ordinance No. 20220609-080, Ordinance No. 20221201-056 and Ordinance No. 20221201-055 were invalidated. On March 11, 2024, Ordinance No. 20240229-073, was enacted to create the “DB90” combining district, which amended City Code Title 25 (Land Development) to create a new zoning district for a density bonus program that grants 30 feet in height above the base zoning district, to a maximum of 90 feet, and modifies site development regulations including compatibility standards. Subsequently, the applicant submitted this new rezoning application to request the -DB90 combining district. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is currently an undeveloped lot southeast of the intersection of Oak Springs Drive and Springdale Road. To the north, is Givens District Park, a public park of 40 acres with a pool, fields, courts, and a community center. To the east, (across Springdale Road) are two restaurants (Micklethwait BBQ, Sharks Fish & Chicken), one convenience store (Buddies Market at Springdale), one single family home, and undeveloped land. To the south and west, (across Tannehill Branch Creek) is Springdale Garden Apartments – approximately 100 multifamily apartments in 1-2 story buildings constructed in approximately 1966. 10 C14-2026-0041 - 1076 Springdale Road; District 11 of 17 C14-2026-0041 2 The property is within the ETOD for the Oak Springs Station (MetroRapid Bus). This station is classified as Secure, indicating that affordability should be secured with sensitive development. The applicant is requesting community commercial-vertical mixed use-density bonus 90- neighborhood plan (GR-V-DB90-NP) combining district for a proposed development that would include multi-family units requiring an affordable component. A building constructed under density bonus 90 (DB90) standards allows for a mix of residential uses and commercial uses, and the result is typically retail, restaurants and offices on the ground floor, and residential units on …

For a summary of the basis of Staff’s recommendation, please see the basis of recommendation section below. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: August 25, 2026: Case is scheduled to be heard by Planning Commission CITY COUNCIL ACTION: TBD ORDINANCE NUMBER: N/A ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is approximately 1,000 feet northeast of the intersection of Springdale Road and East Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. It is currently undeveloped apart from an approximately 0.75 acre gravel parking lot. To the north, are approximately 83 multifamily units and 7 townhomes and one single family home. To the east is Fort Branch Creek and on the other side of the creek, 18 single family homes. To the south are two single family homes, one tire shop, one medium-sized warehouse, and one church. To the west across Springdale Road are three single family homes, 19 townhomes, and the Morris Williams public golf course. The site is along Springdale Road and East Martin Luther King Jr Boulevard, both of which are Imagine Austin Activity Corridors. The site is also approximately ½ mile from the Mueller Imagine Austin Activity Center and the Manor Road and East 51st Street Imagine Austin Activity Corridors. 11 C14-2026-0052 - Springdale Road and East MLK Multifamily Rezoning; District 11 of 16 C14-2026-0052 2 There is high frequency bus service available with route 300 Springdale/Oltorf that has stops in both directions adjacent to the subject tract. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: The proposed zoning should be consistent with the goals and objectives of the City Council. The proposed zoning would support Council’s goals and objectives to increase housing along Imagine Austin Corridors to support transit and provide a range of housing types. This request for MF-4 would allow scaled density with Fort Branch Creek serving as a buffer to the single-family neighborhood to the east. Zoning should allow for reasonable use of the property.

ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE: C14-80-135(RCT) (Springdale Road and DISTRICT: 1 E. MLK Multifamily -Public RC Termination) ADDRESS: 4613 and 4615 Springdale Road ZONING FROM: SF-6-NP TO: SF-6-NP* (Restrictive Covenant Termination) *Note: there is a concurrent rezoning request (see related cases section below) however this case does not change the zoning, it only terminates the public restrictive covenant described. SITE AREA: approximately 1.28 acres (approximately 55,757 square feet) PROPERTY OWNER: David Chapel Missionary Baptist Church of Austin AGENT: DuBois, Bryant & Campbell, LLP (David Hartman) CASE MANAGER: Jonathan Tomko, AICP (512) 974-1057, jonathan.tomko@austintexas.gov STAFF RECOMMEDATION: Staff recommends granting termination of the restrictive covenant associated with zoning case C14-80-135. For a summary of the basis of Staff’s recommendation, please see the basis of recommendation section below. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: August 25, 2026: Case is scheduled to be heard by Planning Commission. CITY COUNCIL ACTION: TBD ORDINANCE NUMBER: N/A ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: As stated in the applicant’s summary letter, a public restrictive covenant was recorded on the subject tract on September 26, 1980 (associated with rezoning C14-80-135). That restrictive covenant: 1) limits development of the Property to bicycle shop purpose while zoned GR 2) specifies signage restrictions, and 3) authorizes a “rollback” zoning if bicycle shop use is discontinued 12 C14-80-135(RCT) - Springdale Road and East MLK Multifamily - Public RC Termination; District 11 of 7 This public restrictive covenant can only be modified, amended, or terminated only by joint action by the City Council and the owner of the Property. Staff support this request to terminate the public restrictive covenant because these restrictions are unreasonable by today’s standards. The property has never been utilized as a bicycle shop, signage regulations are codified and standardized in City Code, and rollback zoning through a restrictive covenant is no longer allowed. Granting this request would support the redevelopment of the subject tract with surrounding properties under one cohesive set of development regulations.

To: From: Date: Zero Waste Advisory Commission Wendy Riggins, Assistant Director, Austin Resource Recovery August 19, 2026 Subject: Director’s Monthly Report to the Zero Waste Advisory Commission Annual Shopping Cart Corral On August 29th, from 8 to 10 a.m., Austin Watershed Protection, Shoal Creek Conservancy, and volunteers will convene at several locations across the watershed to remove hard-to-reach shopping carts from the creek. For several years Austin Resource Recovery (ARR) has partnered with Shoal Creek Conservancy during their annual Shopping Cart Corral. During last year’s event in July 2025, ARR collected 3,340 pounds of debris from seven (7) sites. This volunteer event helps remove and prevent material from entering area creeks. Collected recyclables are also diverted from disposal at area landfills whenever possible. For example, shopping carts that cannot be returned to retailers are recycled through a third-party contractor that strips off plastics and rubber wheels, then melts down the metal to form new steel products. Old tires are shredded and turned into playground and recreational surfaces or repurposed for community projects. These efforts continue to increase our zero waste goals. Circular Economy: Connect and Share (District 1) On September 2, a full day, free annual summit for Austin entrepreneurs, nonprofits, and business leaders working to build a more circular economy will be held at 1520 Rutherford Lane. Attendees can expect to work with peers to develop new solutions to incorporate the circular economy into business models. The event will also feature a panel of local circular business leaders on how they incorporate community building into their business models. Register and get more info at https://www.austintexas.gov/resource-recovery/events/circular- connect-and-share September 19: Fix-It Clinic (District 1) A Fix-It Clinic will be held on September 19 at the Robert Turner Recreation Center from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Residents can bring broken household items and learn to fix them with guidance from skilled coaches. There will be a drop-off period the week leading up to the clinic, for those who need something fixed but are unable to attend the event.

Respondents to the solicitation and their Agents should direct all questions to the Authorized Contact Person identified in the solicitation. Council Committee, Boards, and Commission Action: N/A Additional Backup Information: Austin Resource Recovery manages a closed landfill and is responsible for ensuring compliance with TCEQ regulatory post-closure care requirements, including proper leachate management. Leachate is wastewater generated when stormwater percolates through landfill waste materials. Currently, leachate is pumped into holding tanks and then manually transferred into tanker trucks for transport to an approved disposal location. The existing process is labor-intensive, operationally inefficient, and vulnerable to service disruptions during Revised 04/2025 significant rainfall events. If holding tanks are not emptied promptly, elevated tank levels can impair pump operations and increase operational risk. Additionally, the aging leachate collection system requires comprehensive upgrades, and this project represents a critical first step in the overall system modernization effort. This project will install a permanent pipe conveyance system connecting the leachate holding tanks directly to the wastewater line. This improvement will eliminate the need …
