ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE: C14-2021-0017 – 5708 Springdale Road DISTRICT: 1 ZONING FROM: GR-NP TO: GR-MU-NP ADDRESS: 5708 Springdale Road SITE AREA: 1.28 acres (55,756.8 sq. ft.) PROPERTY OWNER: Willie C. Lewis CASE MANAGER: Mark Graham (512-974-3574, mark.graham@austintexas.gov) AGENT: Drenner Group, PC (Leah Bojo) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant community commercial – mixed use – neighborhood plan (GR-MU-NP) combining district zoning. For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments on page 2. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: May 11, 2021: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: June 10, 2021: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 12B-10 C14-2021-0017 2 ISSUES A petition was submitted by the owner of the two adjacent commercial properties. The original signatures have not been received so the percent calculation for the 200 foot buffer area have not been calculated yet. Over 20% would change the required votes at 3rd and Final Reading of City Council to a super majority to grant the zoning change. That petitioner would prefer other businesses to occupy the GR zoned tract. Other residents of the neighborhood contacted staff to express a preference for commercial uses that would add places of interest for the community. There are two businesses on adjacent lots, one is a café, the other is a performance venue that uses the barn. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The rezoning tract is a 1.28 acre (about 55,756 sq. ft) tract of land with one residence that will be razed. The applicant requests rezoning from community commercial – neighborhood plan (GR- NP) to community commercial – mixed use – neighborhood plan (GR-MU-NP) combining district zoning. Adding the MU zoning permits residential development on the site. The application indicates the intent of building 23 townhouse/condominium residences on the tract. Access and Connectivity The site is situated about a mile south of the Manor Rd/Highway 183 intersection and about a half mile south of the Manor Rd/Springdale Rd. junction. Although Rogge Lane is a smaller collector street it connects to Manor Rd about one half mile east of Springdale. The tract is about 400 feet north of Rogge Lane/Springdale Road intersection. Route 183/Ed Bluestein Blvd. is less than a mile east of the site, but only indirect access is available via Manor Road or East 51st Street. Springdale Road is a level 3 roadway with 2 travel lanes and a center turn lane. The sidewalk is continuous along the west …

PROPERTY OWNER: 601, 603-14 Realty L.P. (Elizabeth B. Osborn) AGENT: Husch Blackwell LLP (Nikelle Meade) CASE MANAGER Mark Graham (512-974-3574, mark.graham@austintexas.gov ) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant downtown mixed use – conditional overlay (DMU- CO) combining district zoning. The conditional overlay limits building height to 60 feet. For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments on page 2. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: May 11, 2021 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: June 10, 2021 ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 13B-11 C14-2021-0025 ISSUES: No issues identified on this request. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: 2 The subject rezoning tract is 0.1542 acres (~6,716 sq. ft.) located on the southwest corner of West 14th Street and Nueces Street. There is no minimum lot size for the requested DMU zone. The rezoning tract fronts on West 14th Street between Nueces Street and Rio Grande Street. Both sides of West 14th are zoned general office (GO). Two one-story residential buildings occupy the subject tract. The buildings are used as offices. The applicant has not filed a site plan application for redevelopment. The applicant proposes office mixed use with a total of 2 residences. The applicant requests rezoning from general office (GO) to downtown mixed use – conditional overlay (DMU-CO) combining district zoning. The condition is the maximum building height of 60 feet. Overlay Districts The subject tract is within the Downtown Austin Plan (DAP), in the Northwest District. It is not eligible for Density Bonuses. The rezoning site is outside of the Capitol Dominance Overlay and not in a Central Urban Renewal C.U.R.E. Overlay. It appears to be in the Capitol of Texas Highway, Capitol View Corridor (CVC). The CVC Overlay protects views of the Capitol from specific locations. A separate study by the Development Services Department, usually done at time of Site Planning, is necessary to understand the effect of the CVC on the building height or design. The subject tract is not in a National Register District and does not have City or State Landmark designations. Mixed Use The subject site is on a block that is residential in appearance though entirely zoned for office uses. The Proposed Zoning Changes Map (exhibit C) …

US HWY 290 SITE AREA: 0.612 acres PROPERTY OWNER: Speedy Stop Food Stores LLC (Joshua Teinert) AGENT: QT South LLC (David Meyer, Jr.) CASE MANAGER: Kate Clark (512-974-1237, kate.clark@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends community commercial (GR) district zoning. For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see page 2. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: May 11, 2021 Scheduled for Planning Commission CITY COUNCIL ACTION: June 3, 2021 Scheduled for City Council ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES There are no known issues at this time and staff has not received any written or emailed comments in favor of or in opposition to this rezoning case. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: This property is located north of the intersection of W. US HWY 290 and FM 1826 and is approximately 0.612 acres. It is currently zoned RR and is developed with an existing service station. Adjacent zoning consists of PUD-NP to the north and east and GR-CO-NP to west. South of this property is US HWY 290 right-of-way and is not zoned, please see Exhibit A: Zoning Map and Exhibit B: Aerial Map. 1 of 10B-12 C14-2021-0036 2 This site is located over the Edwards Aquifer Contributing Zone. Project applications at the time of this report are subject to the SOS Ordinance that allows 25% impervious cover in the contributing zone, (see Environmental comments). The applicant is requesting GR district zoning to maintain the existing land use (service station) and to potentially provide additional access to US HWY 290 for neighboring properties. While this property is located within the boundaries of the Oakhill Combined Neighborhood Plan (West Oak Hill), it is not included in the neighborhood plan and does not have a designated use on the future land use map (FLUM). BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. Zoning should allow for reasonable use of the property. This property currently contains a service station and is located over the Edwards Aquifer Contributing Zone. Rezoning this property to GR would allow the existing land use to continue and provide flexibility should the property redevelop. 2. Zoning should promote the policy of locating retail and more intensive zoning near the intersections of arterial roadways. This property is currently only accessed from US HWY 290, a TxDot highway. Rezoning this property to GR would be consistent with …

Interlocal Agreement(s) For Wildland Fire Management Activities and “All Risk” Activities Travis County and The University of Texas At Austin Concessions and Contract Committee May 11, 2021 Matt McCaw Environmental Conservation Program Manager Land Management Program Natural Resources Division Austin Parks and Recreation Department matt.mccaw@austintexas.gov 2 Background • • • • • The majority of PARD’s lands are protected as natural areas. A natural area is an area that retains or has reestablished its natural character, typically dominated by native plants and animals. They provide critical services to Austin residents: • Mental health Social benefits • Economic benefits • Recreational opportunities • • Water cleansing Air cleansing • Climate regulation • • Most PARD natural areas have not been managed to maintain ecosystem health. Have been degraded by past management, invasive species, and loss of biodiversity, which make them more vulnerable to heat, drought, disease, and wildfire. These vulnerabilities will be exacerbated by climate change. Background • Further, in 2019, the City Auditor found that PARD is not strategically addressing wildfire risk on parkland and recommended that PARD create and implement land management plans to manage natural areas and address wildfire risk. • (Office of the City Auditor. October 2019. Wildfire Preparedness Audit Report) • PARD is in the process of procuring a land management plan for several thousand 3 acres of natural areas. • Fire is a natural process Is critical for: • • Economical restoration and management of land at large scales • Sustainability and resiliency of natural systems • Prescribed fire will be an important piece of the land management plan to reintroduce fire safely. 4 Purpose • • To achieve these goals and commitments, PARD is seeking to establish cooperative agreements with a group of land managing entities (and Austin Fire Department) in the Austin area, including interlocal agreements with: 1. Travis County, and 2. The University of Texas at Austin The interlocal agreements with Travis County and the University of Texas at Austin will each allow for mutual support and cooperation for prescribed fire management and training, land management planning, as well as planning and assistance for hazardous incidents. • Collectively, these agreements will be important for PARD in fulfilling the commitments made in response to the Wildfire Audit as well as implementing restoration and land management plans for Preserves and other parkland natural areas. 5 Purpose • • • These entities each use prescribed …
