ORDINANCE AMENDMENT REVIEW SHEET Amendment: Site-specific amendments and related variances Description: Amends Land Development Code (LDC) Chapter 25-1, 25-5, 25-7, and 25-8 and related variances as minimally required to allow the construction of the Walnut Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant Enhancement and Expansion Project Proposed Language: Consider an ordinance granting site-specific variances and amendments to the Land Development Code, including amendments to Chapter 25-1, 25-5, 25-7, and 25-8, as minimally required to allow the construction of the Walnut Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant Enhancement and Expansion Project. Summary of proposed code amendment The amendment under consideration is related to the enhancement and expansion project for the Walnut Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant, especially the construction of a floodwall to protect the facility from flood damage. 25-1 General Requirements and Procedures Amendments to this section are proposed to allow certain variances/waivers to be approved administratively instead of by board or commission. 25-5 Site Plans The project includes several site plans for different project phases and requires a modification to Section 25-5-44 to allow concurrent site plans on the same site. Additionally, the construction of the project will extend beyond the 3-year expiration requirement for site plans so, an amendment to 25-5-81 is also proposed. 25-7 Drainage The construction of the project may require a floodplain variance for which an administrative approval process is proposed. 25-8 Environment A significant portion of the property is located within the 100-year floodplain and the Critical Water Quality Zone of Walnut Creek. The site also has a topography that may require variances to cut/fill requirements and restrictions on regulations. Additionally, there are two identified heritage trees that conflict with the proposed alignment of the floodwall. The proposed amendments to chapter 25-8 include: • • • • • 25-8-261 (Development in the Critical Water Quality Zone) to allow for the construction of the floodwall within the CWQZ 25-8-301 (Construction on Slopes) to allow for administrative approval of the realignment of a roadway on slopes in excess of 15% 25-8-341 (Cut Requirements) to allow for administrative approval of cut up to 25 ft 25-8-342 (Fill Requirements) to allow for administrative approval of fill up to 25 ft 25-8-642 & 25-8-643 (Heritage Trees) to allow for administrative approval of removal of two heritage trees 21 SPC-2025-0091A - Walnut Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant Enhancement and Expansion Project; District 11 of 3 Background: The Walnut Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) receives wastewater flow from …
C20-2024-010 REZONING, NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN, AND ORDINANCE AMENDMENT REVIEW SHEET Amendment: C20-2024-010 University Neighborhood Overlay (UNO) Update Description: Amend City Code Title 25 (Land Development) to repeal Article 3 Division 9 University Neighborhood Overlay District Requirements and to create Density Bonus University Neighborhood Overlay (-DBUNO) and rezone property generally located west of the University of Texas, east of Lamar Boulevard, south of 29th Street and north of Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard to apply -DBUNO and amend the Central Austin Combined Neighborhood Plan, an element of the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan, to change the future land use map for the same property from multiple land use designations to High Density Mixed Use. Background: Initiated by City Council Resolution No. 20240418-077 and Resolution No. 2025-0130-057. The University Neighborhood Overlay, or UNO, was first adopted by Ordinance No. 040902-58 in 2004 to promote high-density, pedestrian-oriented redevelopment of the West Campus area that maintains the area's existing character and stimulates income- restricted affordable housing development. The overlay supersedes specific site development standards of the base zones and allows land uses to encourage development that serves the primarily student population of the area. This includes reduced required parking spaces, increased maximum allowable building height and bulk, and allowance for a mix of local, pedestrian-serving commercial uses. For a property to develop under UNO, additional requirements must be met, including providing affordable housing and adherence to stricter streetscape and design standards. These regulations were crafted through a robust community process involving residents and stakeholders. Since their original adoption, UNO regulations were amended in 2014 and 2019 through Ordinance No. 20140213-056 and Ordinance No. 20191114-067. The 2014 amendment allowed participating developments to rent by the bedroom and increased the affordability period from 15 to 40 years. Amendments in 2019 changed the second tier of maximum allowed building height available through the dedication of additional affordable housing units or bedrooms. These amendments demonstrate the commitment to updating UNO to address necessary changes that better serve students and the surrounding community. Since its adoption in 2004, the UNO overlay has facilitated the development of over 10,000 housing units or bedrooms and has led to the creation of 972 income-restricted bedrooms and 401 income-restricted units. In April 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 20240418-077, which initiated amendments to the University Neighborhood Overlay (UNO). The Resolution included 29 distinct items for staff consideration, including amendments to the land development code, …

Executive Summary The University Tenants Union (UTU) is an organization composed of University of Texas at Austin (UT) students which formed following advocacy by its founding members for the elimination of construction of windowless bedrooms in Austin in 2023. Since, UTU has provided resources to student-renters navigating off-campus living, gathered data on student housing needs, and continued its policy advocacy. Updating the University Neighborhood Overlay (UNO) provides a unique policy opportunity in Texas to institute tenant protections for students that are otherwise not feasible. UTU, through deep, ongoing engagement with students, developed two recommendations for UNO to protect student-tenants against exploitation by landlords. Through their implementation, the City of Austin (CoA) can improve students’ housing experiences, and in turn their academic performance. When students have adequate housing, their potential surges. UTU recommends that CoA adopt the following recommendations: 1. Limit Pre-leasing: ● Limit lease renewal offers to 6 months before a lease ends, with a guaranteed 30-day response window. ● Limit new lease signings to 5 months before the lease start date. ● Ban pre-leasing agreements, waiting lists, and any incentives or penalties that pressure tenants into quick decisions. ● Enforce violations with fines. 2. Hold Landlords Accountable for Delayed Move-ins: ● As part of an UNO-specific lease addendum, require a disclosure if a unit’s construction is incomplete or if the unit lacks a certificate of occupancy. ● As a renter’s move-in date approaches, if their leased unit’s certificate of occupancy has not been obtained, landlords must notify the renter between 60 and 90 days before the lease start date. ● In case of a delayed move-in, renters may: terminate the lease without fees OR not pay rent and be compensated for living expenses until they can move in OR choose to accept alternate accommodations from their landlord. 3. Close the Borrowed Light Loophole✝ for Windowless Housing: ● Prohibit allowing bedrooms to “borrow light” from adjoining rooms with exterior-facing windows. This is inadequate and creates privacy concerns. ● Inform prospective renters if they are applying to rent a windowless room. ● Equitably allocate existing windowless bedrooms according to health needs and income. ● Disallow marketing of windows as a luxury that renters have to pay a fee for. UTU looks forward to the adoption of these protections, and will advocate for their future adoption citywide and retroactively (at older UNO-participating properties). Please contact Justin Lanier, Policy Director with any questions: …
Affordability Impact Statement Preservation Bonus Code Amendment Resolution No. 20240718-090 Date: 3/18/2025 Proposed Regulation In December of 2023, the City Council approved Ordinance No. 20231207-001 (HOME Phase 1), which authorized up to three housing units on a site and created provisions to encourage property owners to utilize the new provisions and to slow the pace of ongoing demolitions of older existing homes. Specifically, these provisions allow a property owner to exclude the square footage of the existing home from the floor-to-area (FAR) calculations (i.e. how a property owner calculates the site’s maximum square footage limits) in exchange for preserving an existing structure. Currently, the two new units are limited to the greater of .55 or 3,200 square feet. In July 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 20240718-090, which initiated an amendment to City Code Title 25 (Land Development) to increase the maximum square footage limits for two new units when the property owner preserves the existing housing unit. Specifically, the Resolution requested a code amendment to allow two new units to achieve the greater of 0.65 or 4,350 square feet. Land Use/Zoning Impacts on Housing Costs The proposed changes would have a neutral impact on housing costs: As of March 17th, 2025, Development Services Department (DSD) has approved 284 applications for new construction under HOME Phase 1 amendments; only 1% of those applications have used the existing preservation bonus. The proposed ordinance increases the allowable space for the two new units, which increases property owners’ incentive to use the preservation bonus, therefore further incentivizing utilization of the zoning changes provided under HOME Phase 1. In alignment with the goals of the HOME amendments, the ordinance intends to reduce demolition rates while increasing infill housing in middle income communities. 25 C20-2024-016 - Preservation Bonus1 of 2 However, the FAR increase does not change the total density allowed by right on Single-Family (SF) zoned property (SF-1, SF-2, SF-3). The ordinance does not alter land use in a way that will impact housing costs. Impact on Development Cost The proposed changes would have a neutral impact on development cost: The ordinance does not fundamentally change construction expenses. It maintains the same provisions for developers that are articulated in the HOME Phase I amendments: • “Subchapter F” design rules are entirely waived for duplex, two-unit, and three-unit project, reducing architecture and engineering labor time. • The preservation incentive can be cost-effective for development. …

March 31, 2025 RE: Preservation Bonus Code Amendment Dear Members of Austin City Council and Austin Planning Commission, Preservation Austin exists to empower Austinites to shape a more inclusive, resilient, and meaningful community culture through preservation. We write today in support of the proposed code amendment, which seeks to rectify Council and Planning Commission’s intent for the Preservation Bonus’s FAR entitlement. The Preservation Bonus aims to promote preservation and disincentivize demolition, creating net benefits for preservation, affordability, anti-displacement, and sustainability. Between 2010 and 2021, Austin averaged 514 residential demolitions per year. Research from ReUse People shows that the average size of a demolished home in Austin is 1100 sq ft, while research from AIA Austin’s Housing Advocacy Committee shows that new homes average over 2,800 sq ft. We are losing older, smaller, more affordable homes to larger, less affordable ones daily. In a development climate that incentivizes demolition, the Preservation Bonus creates more opportunities to preserve for those who want to take it. Recalibrating the bonus’s FAR entitlements to match the Planning Commission and Council’s intent is the first step in making the bonus work for more potential projects. Council’s July resolution directed staff to explore additional entitlements, including allowing relocated pre-1961 homes to access the bonus, reducing rear and front setbacks, and allowing for front/back subdivisions. In addition to these recommendations from Council, increasing site coverage and entitling Preservation Bonus projects to a fourth unit will increase the bonus’s efficacy in adding density to historic neighborhoods (see attached memo for additional info). Preservation Austin, Austin Infill Coalition, and AIA Austin’s Housing Advocacy Committee are honored to partner with City Council and the Planning Commission to create this Preservation Bonus. We look forward to our continued collaboration to make the bonus stronger, unlock its potential to save more Austin homes from the landfill, and generate more housing. Sincerely, Melissa Barry, President 25 C20-2024-016 - Preservation Bonus1 of 3 MEMORANDUM DATE: March 28, 2024 TO: Austin City Council FROM: Preservation Austin SUBJECT: Preservation Bonus Improvements & Recommendations On Tuesday, March 26 Preservation Austin, the Austin Infill Coalition, and AIA Austin’s Housing Advocacy Committee shared the following recommendations for improving the Preservation Bonus with Austin City Council’s Housing & Planning Committee. See our report summarizing our recommendations here and a copy of our presentation here. Current Preservation Bonus For structures built on or before 31 December 1960, the area of the existing …
