ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET TO: SF-3 DISTRICT: 5 CASE: C14-2024-0089 (7900 Persimmon Trail) ADDRESS: 7900 Persimmon Trail ZONING FROM: MH SITE AREA: .2441 acres (10,633.93 sq. ft.) PROPERTY OWNER: Anna Cecilia Berry AGENT: Texas Permitting Solutions (Shae Willard) CASE MANAGER: Beverly Villela (512-978-0740, Beverly.Villela@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMEDATION: Staff recommends SF-3, Family Residence District, zoning. See the Basis of Recommendation section below. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: July 16, 2024: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: TBD ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is an undeveloped lot within the Greenleaf Estates subdivision. The Greenleaf Estates and the Brownleaf Estates, the adjacent subdivision to the north, are manufactured home subdivisions and were zoned mobile home residence (MH) district in the mid-1980s. Some of the lots contain one or more manufactured homes, and other lots have single family residence or two-family residence uses. In this case, the applicant has requested SF-3 zoning to build a single-family residence. Staff is recommending the Family Residence (SF-3) district zoning. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. C14-2023-0000 2 The Family residence (SF-3) district is the designation for a moderate density single- family residential use and a duplex use on a lot that is a minimum of 5,750 square feet. An SF-3 district designation may be applied to a use in an existing single-family neighborhood with moderate sized lots or to new development of family housing on lots that are 5,750 square feet or more. Up to three units are permitted under single- family residential development standards. Zoning changes should promote compatibility with adjacent and nearby uses. 2. The staff supports the applicant’s request because the property is located in an area that is developed with a mixture of manufactured homes, single family residences, and two-family residences. The SF-3 zoning district would be compatible and consistent with the surrounding uses and there are existing SF-3 and SF-2-CO zoned properties located to the north and east that are currently developed with single- family residential uses. In addition, many of the manufactured homes in this area have been enclosed with framed facades making it difficult to recognize them as manufactured homes and not single family structures.

ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION/ RECOMMENDATION: July 16, 2024: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: In December 2023, Ordinance No. 20220609-080, Ordinance No. 20221201-056 and Ordinance No. 20221201-055 were invalidated. On March 11, 2024, Ordinance No. 20240229-073, was enacted to create the “DB90” combining district, which amended City Code Title 25 (Land Development) to create a new zoning district for a density bonus program that grants 30 feet in height above the base zoning district, to a maximum of 90 feet, and modifies site development regulations including compatibility standards. C14-2024-0047 Page 2 CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject rezoning area is approximately 7.459 acres and is developed with a modest industrial warehouse and four single-family residential buildings but is primarily undeveloped. The rezoning area is situated at the east side of S. 1st Street, just north of the intersection with Ralph Ablanedo Drive and less than half a mile north of its intersection with Slaughter Lane. S. 1st Street is a level 3 mobility corridor, and the site is located equidistant walking distance two stops for Cap Metro bus route 10, with high frequency access to downtown. This portion of S. 1st Street is identified as an Imagine Austin Corridor, with growth and new development focused along such corridors per the plan. Development on the east side of S. 1st Street is mostly undeveloped to the immediate north (DR) and further north a vacant Construction sales and service use (MF-4-CO).

The requirement will deprive the applicant of a privilege or the safety of property given to owners of other similarly situated property with approximately contemporaneous development; Yes. The use of the proposed warehouses requires extensive areas of uniform finished floor elevations as is typical for shipping and receiving facilities. Cut in the existing grades over eight feet is needed to allow for the level finished-floor elevations and level loading docks, to maintain drives at minimal grades necessary for truck maneuverability, and to allow ADA access. The site plan proposes two warehouses with truck courts on a 21.6-acre lot that has no natural occurring slopes over 15 percent, requiring cut up to 14.2 feet in depth, and fill up to 15.2 feet in depth.
