ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: May 4, 2021 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 12B-6 C14-2021-0043 ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: 2 The property in question is a 10,468 sq. ft. vacant lot that fronts onto Plains Trail. Surrounding uses include an office center to the north, an office an undeveloped area to the south, a fire station and office/warehouse uses to the east and a bank and single-family residences to the west. The applicant is requesting MF-3 zoning to develop a multifamily use on the site. The property in question meets the intent of the Multifamily Residence-Medium Density district. The proposed MF-3 zoning is located on a local street adjacent to existing office uses to the north (zoned LR) and south (zoned NO) and multifamily (MF-3-CO) zoning further to the south along Plain Trail. The proposed MF-3 zoning will provide a transition in the intensity of uses along Plains Trail from the commercial zoning at the intersection at W. Braker Lane to the office and multifamily zoning to the south. 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. Multifamily residence medium density (MF-3) district is the designation for multifamily use with a maximum density of up to 36 units per acre, depending on unit size. An MF-3 district designation may be applied to a use in a multifamily residential area located near supporting transportation and commercial facilities in a centrally located area or in an area for which medium density multifamily use is desired. 2. The proposed zoning should promote consistency and orderly planning. The proposed zoning will promote consistency and orderly planning because the property in question is located on a local street adjacent to existing office uses to the north and south and multifamily zoning further to the south along Plain Trail. The proposed MF-3 zoning will provide a transition in the intensity of uses along Plains Trail from the commercial zoning at the intersection at W. Braker …

May 4, 2021 Regarding Case Number: C14-2021-0050 Contact: Wendy Rhoades wendy.rhoades@austingexas.gov Public Hearings: May 4, 2021, Zoning and Platting Commission; June 3, 2021, City Council Dear City of Austin, Planning and Zoning Commission and Members of the City Council, This letter represents an objection to the proposed zoning change for the project location of 9505 Alice Mae Lane from GR-CO to GR-MU-CO. The purpose of this letter is to “second” the letter you received from Doray Sitko, President of the Southpark Meadows West Owners Association regarding the objection stated above. Currently I am the Vice-President of said organization. Also, this letter is officially submitted on behalf of the Board of Directors of the Reserve at Southpark Meadows HomeOwners Association (a subordinate association of Southpark Meadows West Owners Association) that consists of 358 single family homes, of which I am the President. Our Board has unanimously agreed on this objection. And I also submit this objection as a residential homeowner in the zoning boundary. We are in full agreement with the entire contents of Doray Sitko’s letter of objection to the rezoning. But instead of repeating Doray’s points of concern, I just wanted to add a few comments for your consideration. The Imagine Austin policies LUT P3, P5, P7 that are cited as being applicable to the proposed rezoning are not as obvious to us who live here as they are to the officials that wrote the proposal. The residents that comprise Southpark Meadows West live in 833 apartments and 435 homes. Within our acreage here are no public grassy parks, trails or playgrounds other than two jungle gyms in the center of the shopping center one quarter mile away. This is already a challenge to Parkland dedication before adding another 130 apartment units. That existing strip of land is too small to house 130 units and provide working spaces for all of them. Regarding the statement that no traffic study is required, be advised that all of the cross streets intersecting Slaughter Ln between I-35 on the East border and First St on the West border contain all- way traffic lights. Sincerely, Fred Cerkan Vice-President, Southpark Meadows West Owners Association President, The Reserve at Southpark Meadows Homeowners Association Resident Homeowner, 9320 Sydney Marilyn Austin TX 78748

May 4, 2021 Zoning and Platting Commission Q & A Report B-5 C14-2021-0038 - Pond Springs Rezone Question Commissioner King: Would it be possible to include the following prohibited uses in the conditional overlay for this case?
