My neighbors and I have discussed the zoning request and contacted the applicant with questions. In particular, we've asked for consideration of W/LO zoning rather than CS (because of the property's location directly adjacent to numerous residences), an exclusion of Adult Oriented Business under the Conditional Overlay in addition to the exclusions the staff has already recommended, and a height restriction for the property that directly abuts residences. However, we have not been informed whether those issues have been discussed or addressed. The additional time will allow us to gather the information and decide whether to submit a petition.

From: To: Subject: Date: Cindy Barron Sirwaitis, Sherri C14-2025-0060 Monday, July 14, 2025 3:13:04 PM External Email - Exercise Caution Sherri, I am writing to express my strong opposition and concern about the proposed changes that would add back previously prohibited uses listed on the ordinance C14-2008-0224 approved in 2010. Those prohibitions were put in place to protect our small neighborhoods from uses incompatible with our community’s character, scale, and quality of life. Allowing those uses on this neighboring commercial site would have significant negative impacts, including: Increased traffic, light and noise Strain on limited infrastructure and parking Disruption of neighborhood safety and tranquility Undermining the planning efforts and agreements reached with neighbors and city staff back in 2010 Our neighborhoods have thrived under the protections established by the 2010 ordinance. Reversing those safeguards disregards years of community planning and investment. I urge you to maintain the prohibited uses as originally adopted to preserve the character and livability of our neighborhoods ACRES WEST, the COTTAGES AT LAKE CREEK, WOODLAND VILLAGE and the WOODS OF ANDERSON MILL. Thank you for considering our concerns. cindy Cindy Barron Acres West 13602 Caldwell Drive Austin, TX 78750 (H)512/258-2142 (M)512/567-3928 05 C14-2025-0060 - AE Medical & Retail Rezone; District 61 of 6 CAUTION: This is an EXTERNAL email.

From: To: Subject: Date: Cindy Barron Sirwaitis, Sherri C14-2008-0224(RCT) Monday, July 14, 2025 2:09:57 PM External Email - Exercise Caution The neighborhood of Acres West objects to the applicant's request to terminate the Restrictive Covenants associated with the property at 13642 North US 183 Highway Service Road South Bound. Request to terminate hours of operation from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM. Removal of this item will result in increased noise and traffic and will have a negative impact on all three adjacent residential neighborhoods surrounding this site. This Restrictive Covenant was negotiated as mitigation for those very impacts. Request to terminate Landscaping Plan Please note that the Landscaping Plan referenced in the Restrictive Covenant has already been replaced by SP-2014-0215C so the request to terminate this portion of the RCT has already been overlooked by the applicant and City reviewers. The new replacement site plan does not address screening and buffering compatibility for the two residential properties abutting the site to the south.
