COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION Urban Transportation Commission Recommendation Number #20201208‐02B I‐35 Capital Express Central Project WHEREAS, the TxDOT I‐35 Capital Express Central Project proposes to add two non‐tolled managed lanes in each direction to I‐35 through central Austin, between US 290 East and SH 71/Ben White Boulevard, growing to 20 total lanes in some segments of the highway; WHEREAS, the original siting and construction of I‐35 through Austin was a directed, intentional project to physically enforce racial segregation; WHEREAS, the Austin Strategic Mobility plan calls for Austin to reach a goal of 50% of Austinites commuting by walking, biking, transit, or any other non‐drive‐alone mode by 2039, from today’s current 24% of Austinites using non‐drive‐alone modes; WHEREAS, the Austin Strategic Mobility Plan further reaffirms the Vision Zero goal the City of Austin set in 2016, to reach zero traffic fatalities by 2025; WHEREAS, the Texas Transportation Commission has set a goal of zero traffic fatalities by 2050 and cutting deaths in half by 2035; WHEREAS, our current climate crisis calls for us to make changes to the way we live and plan our cities and our pattern of continued highway construction is neither safe nor sustainable, given the contributions of automobiles to climate change; WHEREAS, in November 2020 Austin voters passed a Project Connect tax district which will fund and construct a generational, comprehensive portfolio of transit projects; WHEREAS, the Orange Line light rail corridor included in Project Connect essentially runs parallel to I‐35, while also taking people more directly to their homes, jobs, and a variety of safe, walkable destinations; WHEREAS, the Orange Line light rail corridor can therefore serve as a better alternative for I‐35 commuters , particularly if the delivery of later phases of the project (such as the northern segment to Tech Ridge Park and Ride) are accelerated by additional funding; WHEREAS, average daily traffic on I‐35 from 2015‐2019 was relatively flat during a time of population and job growth, while TxDOT predicts dramatic increases in traffic demand on the corridor; WHEREAS, the City’s 2014 Bicycle Master Plan envisions a core network of safe facilities suitable for people of all ages and abilities, and approximately three‐quarters of the streets that cross this project corridor have been identified as being in the Bicycle Priority Network; WHEREAS, the City’s Sidewalk / ADA Transition Plan accounts for missing and broken sidewalks citywide, including significant very high priority missing and broken sidewalks …

COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION Urban Transportation Commission Recommendation Number #20201208‐02D Draft Transportation Criteria Manual WHEREAS, the City approved an updated city‐wide transportation plan in 2019, the Austin Strategic Mobility Plan (ASMP), that expands the vision of the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan into actionable mobility‐related goals and objectives to guide Austin’s near‐ and long‐term transportation investments; and, WHEREAS, the foremost goals of the ASMP are improving safety on our transportation network and significantly changing the City’s work commute mode split to be less reliant on single‐occupancy vehicle trips; and, WHEREAS, the Central Texas region is anticipated to double its population and add two million residents in the next 20 years; and, WHEREAS, the Transportation Criteria Manual defines the design requirements for transportation infrastructure within the City of Austin (City) and its Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ), when adopted by the applicable jurisdiction, including Travis County and Williamson County; and, WHEREAS, the City has revamped its transportation review guidelines for new development and is considering adopting a Street Impact Fee Program to impart a one‐time charge to new developments to contribute to capital improvement projects and roadway expansions as designated in the ASMP; and, WHEREAS, the City intends to look at managing transportation demand with respect to vehicle travel as much as providing additional supply; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Urban Transportation Commission recommends that, in order to meet the goals listed in the Austin Strategic Mobility Plan, set an example for best practices in transportation, and to strive to meet voters’ desires as shown by the passage of Proposition A and Proposition B in 2020, the City should: 1. Remove the requirement for transportation review related to new development to be conducted by a licensed Professional Engineer since American Institute of Certified Planners are permitted to aid with Transportation Demand Management plans and have important perspectives and many have appropriate skill sets to conduct full Transportation Impact Analyses. 2. Include no travel lanes with a recommended/required design width of more than 12 feet. 3. Modify Section 10.4 TIA to include guidelines for analysis and not be in a separate administrative document (Please see UTC Recommendations 2018‐0416A, 20190318‐04C, 20191101‐02A, and 20200710‐02A for previous recommendations regarding transportation impact analysis processes). 4.

Planning Commission Q & A Report B-1 - B -4 Chair Shaw / Staff • Does the applicant have proposed concept drawings for the properties? It has been a year since the public meeting when applicant stated they had none. There are no conceptual plans. It is my understanding that the owners plan to sell the properties but don’t have a buyer in mind. • The main church building was designed by John S. Chase, the first African American to graduate from the University of Texas at Austin in Architecture. Preservation of this building was a major topic of discussion in the community meeting. What is the opinion of the Historic Preservation Office as to the historic significance of this church and what is the process for its preservation given the change in ownership? David Chapel Missionary Baptist Church qualifies as a city historic landmark under the criteria for architectural distinction and historical significance. It was designed by John S. Chase, the first African-American licensed architect in the State of Texas, and is a masterpiece of mid- century Modern church architecture. The David Chapel congregation also has historical significance; the first home of the congregation, at 14th Street and Chestnut Avenue (now St. Paul Primitive Baptist Church) is a historic landmark. Recent state law (House Bill 2496) requires that a building owned by a religious organization may only be designated as a historic landmark if the religious organization consents to the designation. • Micah King stated on behalf of the applicant, “They want to be respectful of the single family uses surrounding the property and to also respect the history.” How does applicant intent to meet this commitment? Pending • In 11-30-2020 Letter from Chestnut Neighborhood Plan Contact Team (From-David Carroll, Vice Chair), contact team supports CS-MU-V-NP for Tracts 1, 2 and 3 and they stated that they came to an agreement with applicant to rezone Tract 4 to GR-V-MU- CO-NP. However, GR-V-MU-CO-NP is not what is shown as applicant’s request in the backup. Does applicant agree to GR-V-MU-CO-NP instead of CS-MU-V-NP for Tract 4? The applicant agrees to GR-MU-V-CO-NP for Tract 4. Staff, however, is recommending LO-MU-CO-NP. Chair Shaw / Staff B-7 Chair Shaw / Staff B-17 See attachment. The Central West Austin Neighborhood Plan Contact Team opposed the NPA change. Are they speaking to their opposition that we should move this item for discuss on the agenda? No …
