1 MEMORANDUM To: Mayor and Council From: Gregory I. Guernsey, AICP, Director Planning and Zoning Department Date: March 29, 2018 Subject: Future of Small Area Planning/Pilot North Lamar Imagine Austin Corridor Plan Background In May 2018 I distributed a memorandum which outlined a recommended approach to developing new types of small area plans and a new way to select future planning areas. The memorandum also identified two corridors within which the Planning and Zoning Department (PAZ) proposed to develop pilot Imagine Austin Corridor Plans (see attachment A). Since then, PAZ staff has: (cid:120) Engaged with numerous City departments; (cid:120) Reviewed relevant city policy documents; (cid:120) Researched existing conditions along the North Lamar Corridor; (cid:120) Begun to identify the scope of work for a pilot planning process; and (cid:120) Briefed the Planning Commission, Zoning and Platting Commission, and Small Area Plan Joint Committee, and made several public presentations including a presentation in coordination with the AIA Austin Urban Design Committee and a presentation at the January General Meeting of the Austin Neighborhoods Council. Upcoming Request for Council Action PAZ anticipates requesting Council to formally initiate a pilot Imagine Austin Corridor Plan along North Lamar between IH 35 and US 183. This request will ask Council to consider approving a resolution that: (cid:120) Identifies a study area for the pilot North Lamar Imagine Austin Corridor Plan; (cid:120) Outlines the scope of the pilot planning process; (cid:120) Provides direction related to public engagement; (cid:120) Provides policy guidance related to enabling transit-supportive development patterns that will leverage near-term mobility investments and support future mobility options envisioned by Project Connect and the Austin Strategic Mobility Plan while accommodating and preserving affordable housing consistent with the Strategic Housing Blueprint, and supporting other major elements of the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan; and 2 (cid:120) Directs staff to collect and analyze data throughout the planning process that will allow lessons learned to be incorporated into future Imagine Austin Corridor planning processes. Timing and Next Steps We anticipate bringing forward a Request for Council Action related to initiation of the North Lamar Imagine Austin Corridor Plan at the April 25 Regular Meeting of City Council. Based on recent inquiries we have received from a few Council offices, as well as discussions we have had with internal agency partners, we recognize that there may be a desire to delay initiation of the Pilot North Lamar Imagine Austin Corridor Plan. A …

1 DRAFT CIP Priorities for Long Range CIP Strategic Plan For Discussion at January 10, 2019 Comprehensive Plan Joint Committee Meeting This chapter provides a recommended framework for prioritizing capital investments. Even with innovative approaches to infrastructure funding and increasing revenues, our needs will likely continue to exceed our ability to make investments in infrastructure over time, and setting priorities helps to increase our capacity to leverage the resources that we have to meet our most critical infrastructure needs. These priorities build on the analysis and conclusions of the LRCSP as well as relevant strategies identified in Strategic Directions 2023. The recommended priorities are arranged by strategic outcome and can be used to help guide incremental decisions made by:  City Council through formal policy decisions, initiation of General Obligation bond propositions for voter approval, acceptance of contracts, grant awards and partnership agreements for CIP projects, and approval of the Capital Budget  City Management through implementation direction, monitoring, and issues resolution  The Planning Commission through fulfillment of their Charter requirement to recommend capital improvements necessary or desirable to implement Imagine Austin  The Planning and Zoning Department, Budget Office, and others through ongoing Capital Improvement Program planning, coordination and oversight  The Budget Office through development of the Capital Budget and long-term financial strategies  Departments through implementation of the Capital Improvement Program and identification of future capital needs  The Development Services Department and development review staff in many departments through the review and application of private development infrastructure requirements  The City through the revision of private development infrastructure requirements and other CIP-related requirements within the Land Development Code;  The Planning and Zoning Department through future small area planning and annexation planning; and  Partnerships with other public agencies and non-profit organizations Strategic Outcome: Economic Opportunity and Affordability Priority #1: Continue to use bond funding to support “highest potential impact” actions identified in Austin’s Strategic Housing Blueprint. Priority #2: Explore ways of using CIP investments to leverage privately-funded community benefits including workforce development and affordable housing. Priority #3: Acknowledge Austin’s history of racial segregation and counter it by applying an equity perspective to infrastructure investments. Priority #4: Focus investments in Imagine Austin Centers and Corridors in coordination with land use changes, and consider the use of innovative funding strategies including value capture and public private partnerships where appropriate. Priority #5: Plan for infrastructure investments in …
