ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET HLC DATE: PC DATE: August 24, 2020 September 8, 2020 CASE NUMBER: C14H-2019-0161 APPLICANT: Thomas M. Schiefer and Meghan Elena Rosales, owners HISTORIC NAME: Mary Freeman Baylor House WATERSHED: Johnson Creek ADDRESS OF PROPOSED ZONING CHANGE: 1607 W. 10th Street ZONING FROM: SF-3-NP to SF-3-H-NP SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Recommend historic zoning. QUALIFICATIONS FOR LANDMARK DESIGNATION: The ca. 1950 house is associated with Charles and Mary Freeman Baylor, who can be documented as living here from the time of construction of the house through the early 1960s. Charles and Mary Freeman Baylor contracted with J.H. Freeman to purchase the house next door, at 1609 W. 10th Street in November, 1963, according to the deed records of Travis County. City directories from 1964 onward show that Charles E. and Mary Freeman Baylor lived next door at 1609 W. 10th Street, and the family rented this house out. Mary Freeman Baylor was a very prominent civil rights activist for the people of her Clarksville neighborhood, leading the charge for the preservation of the Clarksville School and for the provision of sewers, paved streets, and other city services other neighborhoods took for granted in the late 1960s and early 1970s. In addition, Mary Freeman Baylor, along with several of her neighbors, worked diligently to prevent the razing of many of the houses in Clarksville for the construction of the Mo-Pac Expressway and a proposed cross-town expressway in the 1970s. HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION ACTION: August 24, 2020: Recommended the proposed zoning change from SF-3-NP to SF-3-H-NP. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: The house is listed as a Priority 1 in the Clarksville Survey (2000). ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: CITY COUNCIL DATE: October 1, 2020 ORDINANCE READINGS: 1ST 2ND 3RD CASE MANAGER: Steve Sadowsky NEIGHBORHOOD ORGANIZATION: Clarksville Community Development Corporation; Old West Austin Neighborhood Association.

PHONE: 974-6454 1 of 31 Historical Associations: The existing house was constructed ca. 1950 by Cary Baylor. According to city directories the first occupants were Charlie Williams, a laborer, and his wife Essie, who rented the house until around 1952, while Charles and Mary F. Baylor rented a house at 1606 W. 10th Street. Cary Baylor’s son Charles Edward Baylor and his wife Mary Frances Freeman Baylor rented the house at …
PLANNING COMMISSION SITE PLAN EXTENSION REVIEW SHEET SP-2014-0508C(XT2) CASE NUMBER: PROJECT NAME: ADDRESS OF SITE: 4800 E 51st St COUNCIL DISTRICT: 1 NEIGHBORHOOD PLANNING AREA: Pecan Springs - Springdale WATERSHED: Fort Branch and Little Walnut Creek (Urban) JURISDICTION: Full Purpose Springdale Park Condominiums PC HEARING DATE: September 8, 2020 APPLICANT/ OWNER: WLH Communities – Texas, LLC (Michael Slack) 810 Hesters Crossing Rd Suite 235 Round Rock, TX 78681 LJA Engineering & Surveying, Inc 7500 Rialto Blvd. Suite 100 Austin, TX 78735 (512) 439-4700 (512) 974-2711 Renee.Johns@austintexas.gov AGENT: CASE MANAGER: Renee Johns PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT: The applicant is requesting a four year extension to a previously approved site plan for the construction of over a hundred detached condos. The application was previously approved to be completed in 5 phases, and through a site plan correction, the site plan was divided into a total of 234 phases. A site plan with this many phases is not typical, but allows for each unit to have its own phase so it can receive its own Certificate of Occupancy. Three of the phases consist of the public infrastructure: sidewalks, driveways, roads, fire lanes, parking, utilities, storm water improvements, detention, water quality improvements and the required offsite improvements. These three phases have been completed and accepted by the City of Austin and their acceptance letters are included in the backup documentation. Additionally, 88 detached condo units are also complete and there are 143 units/phases left to construct. SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval to extend this site plan permit by four years, from March 15, 2021 (new site plan expiration date due to COVID 19) to March 15, 2025 based on the case meeting criteria from LDC Section 25-5-62(C). The applicant has included a justification letter explaining details of this site (included in backup materials) and why the request is beyond the typical three year extension. Staff agrees that based on the construction completed thus far and the need to complete 143 units, that a four year extension is reasonable. 25-5-63(C) Extension of released site plan by the Land Use Commission: “the Land Use Commission may extend the expiration date of a released site plan beyond the date established by this chapter if the Land Use Commission determines that the request complies with the requirements for extension by the director under 25-5-62 (Extension of Released Site Plan by Director).” 25-5-62(C) The director may extend the expiration date …

Variance Conditions Briefing to the Environmental Commission Atha Phillips Environmental Officer’s Office Condition: Plant at least 800 trees on-site • What size of tree? • What kind of tree? Shade or ornamental? • Irrigation required? • Maintenance plan? • Can these trees count towards other landscape code requirements? Condition: Demonstrate a black land prairie land restoration • Where? • How many acres? • Irrigation required? • Maintenance plan? • Can this count towards required mitigation on site? Condition: Investigate the restoration of the riparian area of Dry Creek • What is the product of the investigation? • This condition doesn’t require the applicant to produce plans, obtain a permit, or ultimately restore the creek Condition: Perform restoration of the riparian area of Dry Creek by working with partners such as Texas A&M • This condition is adding a complicating factor for the applicant. • What if partners aren't readily available or don’t want to work on this project? • Requiring applicant to work with staff is a more reliable scenario that will produce the same or better results. Unenforceable conditions: • Consider amenities near the trails such as water fountains • The tree care plan shall be increased to five years • Reuse the wood from the removed trees on the site in the form of something other than mulch as a public benefit Tips for Success: Ask yourself: 1. What are you trying to accomplish? 2. Is the goal related to the variance? 3. Has the condition been clearly identified? 4. Is the condition specific? 5. Is the condition enforceable? Ask staff if you need help or want us to review for the condition to meet the five items listed above. Questions?
