20251114-001: Fiscal Year 2025-26 Budget Recommendation — original pdf
RECOMMENDATION TO COUNCIL Downtown Austin Community Court Advisory Board Recommendation Number: 20251114-001: Fiscal Year 2025-26 Budget Recommendation Date of Approval: November 14, 2025 Recommendation: 1. Retain the $650,000 included in the approved Fiscal Year 2025-26 Budget, and in the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Amended Budget Recommendations, for the six grant- funded clinical case managers who comprise the Rapid Rehousing Program and are vital to sustaining the overall Homeless Services capacity for Austin Community Court. 2. Maintain Austin Community Court’s social service funding at current levels or at least limit reductions to 4% consistent with those recommended for Austin Homeless Strategies and Operations (HSO). Description of Recommendation to Council: The DACC Advisory Board passed Recommendation 20250328-004A, available as an attachment to this recommendation, which justifies the critical nature of this investment. We’re grateful to the City Council for including these staff in the budget passed in August 2025, which remains our top priority, and we write to support their inclusion in the City Manager’s amended budget recommendations. All of the rationale in our original recommendation still rings true, with additional urgency around the needs for these staff and social service resources as follows: • Social Services Contracts are an Integral Part of Community Court’s Service Model - Case management at Austin Community Court includes a portfolio of contracted social service supports to ensure clients receive the wraparound services they need. These services include an array of long- and short-term housing solutions; substance use treatment; mental health services; peer support; and SSI/ SSDI Outreach, Access, and Recovery (SOAR) application assistance and representative payee services. Given that these social service resources are dedicated to individuals served directly by Community Court case managers, significant reductions will risk dilution of the quality and intensity of services needed by the individuals Austin Community Court serves. o The Fiscal Year 2025-26 Amended Budget Recommendations suggest a 10% cut to contracts managed by Austin Public Health, Austin Municipal Court (including Community Court), and Economic Development while recommending only a 4% reduction for contracts managed by HSO. This recognition of the critical and essential nature of homeless services for the Austin community should extend to Community Court given the integral nature social services play in its service model. We therefore urge Council to maintain the current social service funding level or at least to reduce by only 4% consistent with HSO. • Protect Institutional Knowledge of Dedicated Public Servants – …

STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff supports the Applicant’s request for Mixed Use/Office land use. BASIS FOR STAFF’S RECOMMENDATION: Staff supports the applicant’s request for Mixed Use/Office land use. Although the future land use map shows Single Family land use to the north and east of the property, the underlying zoning of those tracts are LO-MU-NP and LO- CO-NP. The applicant’s request for LO-MU-CO-NP zoning with Mixed Use/Office land use is appropriate in this location. The Govalle/Johnston Terrace plan desires to keep single family zoning, but it also supports a balanced and varied land uses that encourages a mixed of residential and commercial uses within walking distances to each other. 02 NPA-2025-0016.01 - P & P .72; District 32 of 22 02 NPA-2025-0016.01 - P & P .72; District 33 of 22 LAND USE DESCRIPTIONS: EXISTING LAND USE: Single family - Single family detached or up to three residential uses at typical urban and/or suburban densities.

See the basis of recommendation section below for more information. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: September 23, 2025: Applicant Postponement Request to October 28, 2025. October 28, 2025: Applicant Postponement Request to November 13, 2025. November 13, 2025: Case is scheduled to be heard by Planning Commission CITY COUNCIL ACTION: TBD ORDINANCE NUMBER: N/A ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is currently one single family home constructed in approximately 1946. To the east of the site is undeveloped land. To the south of the site are three single family homes constructed between approximately 1928 and 1946, and three duplexes constructed between approximately 1945 and 1958. To the west of the site (across Shady Lane) is an approximately 135,000 square foot two-story school constructed in approximately 1957, the Anita Ferrales Coy Facility, formerly known as the John T. Allan Facility. This property was rezoned through C14-2024-0019.SH, see area case histories below. To the north of the site is one two-story industrial building of approximately 22,000 square feet and one warehouse of approximately 8,000 square feet, both constructed in approximately 2015. The subject tract is approximately 1,200 feet southeast of the Springdale Station Imagine Austin Activity Center. The tract is also approximately 300 feet west of Airport Boulevard an Imagine Austin Activity Corridor. 03 C14-2025-0073 - P & P .72; District 31 of 11 BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: Zoning should allow for reasonable use of the property. The request would allow for reasonable use of the subject tract. There is parking for the United Association Plumbers & Pipefitters Local #286 immediately to the north of the subject tract. While the area has been traditionally single family in nature there are more intense uses along Airport Boulevard and there is a substantial redevelopment planned across Shady Lane. Granting of the request should result in an equal treatment of similarly situated properties. In 2001 the property adjoining the subject tract to the east sought a rezoning from SF-3 to GR and was granted LO (see area case …

I would like to vote, to be build an commercial office building. Best , Olga ************** From: Jenny & Aaron Carrara < Sent: Tuesday, September 9, 2025 2:46 PM To: Boudreaux, Marcelle <Marcelle.Boudreaux@austintexas.gov>; Meredith, Maureen <Maureen.Meredith@austintexas.gov> Cc: Scruggs, Ed <Ed.Scruggs@austintexas.gov> Subject: Homeowner input - C14-2025-0087 Marcelle and Maureen, First, I want to thank you both for the timely responses you provided to me last week as we learned of the proposed rezoning of land within 500 feet of our home in the Ridge at Lantana neighborhood. Many of us moved to this area of Austin decades ago because of the green spaces, trails and quiet; wanting to escape the fast-paced lifestyle, noise and traffic of the inner-city but also have quick access to downtown where we work and enjoy what the city has to offer. While we are not ignorant to development and rapid population growth in Austin, nor the sprawl to our area of the City, the request to rezone this plot of land from an office building to instead allow for the development of a hotel has been very surprising and jarring. First, I want to reiterate that those of us within the 500 ft impacted area have also been dealing with the USPS prohibiting use of our mailboxes due to vandalism weeks ago - they have indicated restoration could take up to six months. This has required affected residents to visit the local post office to pick up our mail and many of us had not yet done so when the signs were erected overnight on Saturday of Labor Day weekend. We ask that you give us all some grace in learning about all of these notifications in a timely manner since we continue to be hampered by this unavoidable situation - another example of crime in our neighborhood in which we have no recourse. 04 NPA-2025-0025.03 - Lantana Tract 34; District 81 of 2 Second, we understand that this area is currently zoned to be an office building of the same size but the application includes a letter from an interested hotel operator which is a dramatically different business model. Globally this proposed change raises …

BASIS FOR STAFF’S RECOMMENDATION: Staff supports the applicant’s request for Commercial land use. The property has Mixed Use land use to the north, office to the northeast and east, Recreation Open Space and Single Family to west. Commercial land use is appropriate in this location with frontage along W. William Cannon Drive and Rialto Blvd. The applicant proposes to construct a 150-key hotel. Mixed Use Multifamily Office Single Family Office Multifamily Recreation Open Space Below are goals in the Oak Hill Plan that staff feels supports the applicant’s request. The plan supports new development that provides a diversity of services to the area. Although the applicant states the proposed use is a hotel, the proposed zoning would allow for other commercial uses to be developed on the site that could benefit the planning area. 04 NPA-2025-0025.03 - Lantana Tract 34; District 82 of 31 LAND USE DESCRIPTIONS: EXISTING LAND USE: Office - An area that provides for office uses as a transition from residential to commercial uses, or for large planned office areas. Permitted uses include business, professional, and financial offices as well as offices for individuals and non-profit organizations. Purpose 1. Encourage office-related services in areas that cannot support the traffic generation of commercial uses; 2. Provide for small lot office conversions as a transition from commercial to residential uses; and 3. Preserve sites for employment and office related services. Application 1. Appropriate for low volume streets such as collectors and minor arterials; and 2.

November 7, 2025 Maureen Meredith, Planning Jonathan Tomko, Planning & Zoning Members of the Planning Commission: The Oak Hill NPCT (OHNPCT) and OHAN object to increasing building height by adding Vertical Mixed Use (changing to MU land use and V zoning) at this key Oak Hill intersection currently home to single-story commercial properties. The OHNPCT and OHAN oppose the changes due to compounded negative impacts added onto the Re-development Exception in the Barton Creek Zone. Traffic and roadway access, the compromise of water quality at Gaines Creek, as well as electrical and water hardship in meeting existing and especially planned growth are escalating concerns. Most importantly, current land use and zoning already will bring substantial commercial as well as possible residential development up to 60 ft. from the existing 1 story development. It allows for coverage of essentially the entire 7 acres without additional height allowances despite being in the Drinking Water Protection Zone. Utilizing current allowances is more than adequate for this site, which already includes an automatic provision of SB840 that allows 378 units under current land use/zoning. This commercial lot remains auto centric without any realistic remedy due to corner traffic congestion at the intersection, inadequate and unpopular transit options, and the boxed in location. Overall, these commercial businesses are key assets to the surrounding community. There is an overabundance of MF & SF housing already built & in the pipeline. For the purpose of minimizing existing roadway congestion & pollution by maintaining nearby access to commercial, retail and restaurant space at this location, upzoning of South Towne is undesirable and opposed by the community at this time. Thank you, Leigh Ziegler, OHNPCT Chair Cynthia Wilcox, OHAN President 06 and 07 - NPA-2025-0025.02 and C14-2025-0079 -South Town Rezoning; District 81 of 1

November 13, 2025 Re: Zoning Request – CASE: C14-2024-0160 (1000 Red River) Dear Chair and Commissioners of the Austin Planning Commission, On behalf of the Red River Cultural District, we are writing to share our formal recommendations on CASE: C14-2024-0160 (1000 Red River). The Red River Cultural District (RRCD) is a vibrant cultural tourism and entertainment area that stretches along Red River Street from 4th Street to 15th Street, bounded by Interstate 35 to the east and extending west to Neches Street and Trinity Street. This cultural corridor—known as Austin’s “Music Mile”—connects a collection of Austin’s independent live music venues, hospitality services, and bars and restaurants, with the Moody Center marking its northern end. The District is home to the German Texan Heritage Society, the Austin Symphony and the First Baptist Church and the expanding Waterloo Park and Greenway. The Austin City Council formally established the Cultural District in 2013, and in 2020, the Texas Commission on the Arts (TCA) designated it as an official State Cultural District. As a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, the RRCD is managed by the Red River Merchants’ Association, which seeks to celebrate, preserve and evolve Red River’s creative, business and music ecosystem sustainably. The site at 1000 Red River represents a unique opportunity to serve as a catalyst along the Red River Cultural District corridor, particularly as the Innovation District, Medical District Campus, and Waterloo Greenway continue to evolve. Located within Austin’s rapidly developing eastern downtown, this area is at the heart of several transformative initiatives that are reshaping the city’s cultural and economic landscape. The Palm District Plan provides significant guidance on a vision and priorities for this area but realizing its full potential will require collaboration among city leaders, developers, cultural partners, and community stakeholders. 08 C14-2024-0160 - 1000 Red River Street; District 91 of 3 RRCD understands today’s action is a zoning request, and while we support the general request of the applicant, we want to emphasize the importance of a broader vision—one that celebrates culture, innovation, and evolution, while remaining grounded in the authentic cultural roots that define Austin. Our priorities include encouraging mixed-use development that enhances pedestrian-scale activation with the future connection to Waterloo Greenway trail system and fosters a vibrant and diverse walkable environment. With the site spanning a full City block and 3 acres, the site serves as a main connector from Austin’s Convention Center, along the Cultural …

STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the proposed termination of the public restrictive covenant. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: November 13, 2025: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The applicant is requesting to terminate/delete a public restrictive covenant that was recorded in 1984 on Lots and 3 of the Taylor-Smith subdivision (Please see Applicant’s Summary Letter – Exhibit C). This covenant added building restrictions to Lot 3. Building restrictions included a 6 foot setback from the common boundary line. However, in 2018 Lots 3 and 4 were re-subdivided into one lot which removed the common boundary line. (Please see Public Restrictive Covenant - Exhibit D). 10 C14-2025-0098(RCT) - 600 Harthan RCT; District 9 1 of 12 C14-2025-0098(RCT) 2 The staff recommends the applicant’s request to delete the conditions of this public restrictive covenant. Since this restrictive covenant was executed and recorded, the property in question has been re-subdivided. The area under consideration is now known as Lot A of the Amended Plat of Lots 3 and 4 Taylor-Smith subdivision. The staff supports the deletion of this public restrictive covenant because items listed in this public restrictive covenant will now be regulated under the zoning district site development standards and other requirements stipulated by the Land Development Code. The applicant agrees with the staff’s recommendation.
