November 14, 2025 RE: November 18, 2025 - City of Austin Planning Commission Agenda Item 4: Conditional Use Permit: SPC-2024-0377A - HighRoad CUP; District 9 Location: 700 Dawson Road Request: The applicant is requesting an approval of a conditional use permit to allow for a Lodge or Club use of 6,856 square feet to occupy portions of the existing building and the entirety of the swimming pool and decking. Dear Mr. Guerrero, The Bouldin Creek Neighborhood Association (BCNA) and its zoning committee have met with the applicant and their attorney and have no objection to the granting of this conditional use. After reviewing the site plan, we found that other than the addition of ADA access and a water line, there are no other pending proposals to change the building or site. The club use is in accordance with the decision made by the BCNA General Association at our meeting in December 2023. As this property has been primarily utilized for lodge or club purposes since the 1950s, the Bouldin Creek Neighborhood Association does not oppose this Conditional Use Permit. CLUB OR LODGE use is the use of a site for provision of meeting, recreational, or social facilities by a private or nonprofit association, primarily for use by members and guests. This use includes private social clubs and fraternal organizations.

Flores-2nd. November 18, 2025 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 02 C14-2025-0091 - Covington Medical; District 71 of 15 ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question consists of four lots that make up 1.51 acres located at the southwest corner of East Covington Drive and the N. Interstate Highway-35 South Bound Service Road. There is a vacant service station/convenience store and an office use to the north, across E. Convington Drive, zoned CS-CO. To the south, there is a hotel/motel use zoned GR-CO and office use zoned LO. The lots to the east facing Pollyanne Avenue contain single-family residences and are zoned SF-1. The applicant is requesting a down zoning of this site back to the GO district to develop a medical office/outpatient surgery center (please see Applicant’s Request Letter – Exhibit C). The staff recommends GO, General Office District, zoning because the property meets the intent of the zoning district. GO zoning will allow for uses that serve the community needs on a property that fronts onto a major freeway/highway, Interstate Highway-35 South Bound. The proposed GO zoning will be compatible and consistent with the surrounding uses because there are commercial and office uses and zoning to the north and the south of the site under consideration. The property is located within the Braker Lane/Blue Goose Activity Corridor, as designated by the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan. The applicant agrees with the staff’s recommendation. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. General Office district is intended for offices and selected commercial uses predominately serving community and city-wide needs. 2. The proposed zoning should promote consistency and orderly planning. The proposed GO zoning will be compatible and consistent with the surrounding uses because there are commercial and office uses and zoning to the north (CS-CO) and to the south (GR-CO, LO) of the property along the IH-35 …
