AGENT: Metcalfe Wolff Stuart and Williams (Michele R. Lynch) CASE MANAGER: Cynthia Hadri 512-974-7620, Cynthia.hadri@austintexas.gov STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The staff recommendation is to grant commercial-liquor sales (CS-1) district zoning. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: January 20, 2026: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is approximately 3, 627 square feet, developed with one building and a parking lot. There is direct access to West North Loop Boulevard (level 3) which has sidewalks and bike lanes. The site is currently zoned community commercial (GR) district and previously had a laundry service use. The street is characterized as mixed use with a variety of commercial uses and multifamily buildings. The property is characterized as mixed use with various commercial uses and residential uses in the surrounding area (MF-4; CS-V; GR; SF-2). Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and B (Aerial View). Staff is recommending the commercial-liquor sales (CS-1) district zoning for the proposed cocktail lounge that is approximately 3, 627 square feet. There is no demolition proposed for the future use of the structure. Please refer to Exhibit C (Applicant’s Summary Letter). Per the comprehensive plan review comments this site meets eight of the Imagine Austin 02 C14-2025-0107 - 2301 North Loop; District 71 of 10 C14-2025-0107 2 Decision Guidelines.

Zoning should allow for reasonable use of the property. Staff recommends the applicant’s request because the lot meets the intent of the CS-1 district as this rezoning would provide a commercial use for the …
