ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE: C14-2020-0041 (Stowers and Schiller) DISTRICT: 10 ADDRESS: 8500 Bluegrass Drive ZONING FROM: LR TO: SF-2 SITE AREA: 2.05 acres (89,298sq. ft.) PROPERTY OWNER: Ken Schiller AGENT: Steve T. Stowers CASE MANAGER: Sherri Sirwaitis (512-974-3057, sherri.sirwaitis@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends SF-2, Single Family-Standard Lot District, zoning. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: June 16, 2020 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 14B-2 C14-2020-0041 2 ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is currently undeveloped. The lots to the north are zoned SF-2-CO and are developed with single-family residences. To the south and east, there are PUD and LO zoned tracts that contain office buildings. To the west, there is undeveloped land that was originally right-of-way area for the construction of Arterial 8. The applicant’s request to change in the intensity of land use at this site is consistent with the deletion of Arterial 8 (Forsythia Drive), a ninety-foot arterial roadway that was to connect Loop 360 to Yaupon Drive. The City of Austin’s plans to construct Arterial 8 changed, due in part to BCCP issues and with the City’s purchase of the adjoining Stennis Tract. In this request, the applicant is asking to down zone this tract of land to build a single-family residence on the site. The staff recommends SF-2 zoning as the property meets the intent of the Single-Family Residence-Standard Lot district designation and is consistent with the SF- 2-CO zoning the north and west. SF-2 zoning will allow the applicant to develop the property with a single-family residence that is compatible with the residential uses adjacent to the site. The applicant agrees with the staff’s recommendation. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. Single-Family Residence (Standard Lot) district is intended as an area for moderate density single-family residential use, with a minimum lot size of 5,750 square feet. This district is appropriate for existing single-family neighborhoods having moderate sized lot patterns, as well as for development of additional single-family housing areas with minimum land requirements. 2. The proposed zoning should promote consistency and orderly planning. The proposed SF-2 zoning is consistent with the existing SF-2-CO zoning to the north and west. 3. The proposed zoning should allow for a reasonable use of the property. SF-2 zoning will allow the applicant to develop the property with a single-family residence …

PROPERTY OWNER: Tiger Creek Partners, LP (John Bultman) AGENT: Metcalfe, Wolff, Stuart & Williams, LLP (Michele Rogerson Lynch) CASE MANAGER: Sherri Sirwaitis (512-974-3057, sherri.sirwaitis@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends GR-MU, Community Commercial-Mixed Use Combining District, zoning. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: June 16, 2020 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 14B-3 C14-2020-0050 2 ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is currently undeveloped tract of land located at the northeast intersection Burnet Road/FM 1325 and Scofield Ridge Parkway. The applicant is requesting to rezone this site because they propose to develop multifamily uses on the property. The staff is recommending GR-MU zoning at this location because the applicant’s request meets the intent of the purpose statement for the base and combining zoning district designations. The proposed zoning will promote consistency and orderly planning as the site under consideration is adjacent to existing commercial zoning to the north (GR) and south (GR-MU) and multifamily zoning to the east (MF-3-CO). The properties directly to the east and south of this tract are developed with apartment complexes (Scofield Park at Austin Apartments and Scofield Apartments). The GR-MU zoning district would allow for a fair and reasonable use of the site because it will permit this site to be developed with commercial uses, residential uses or a mixture of commercial and residential uses at the intersection of two arterial roadways. The applicant agrees with the staff’s recommendation. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. The Community Commercial (GR) district is the designation for an office or other commercial use that serves neighborhood and community needs and that generally is accessible from major traffic ways. The purpose of a mixed use (MU) combining district is to allow office, retail, commercial, and residential uses to be combined in a single development. 2. The proposed zoning should promote consistency and orderly planning. The proposed zoning will promote consistency and orderly planning as the site under consideration is adjacent to existing commercial zoning to the north (GR) and south (GR- MU) and multifamily zoning to the east (MF-3-CO). The properties directly to the east and south of this tract are developed with apartment complexes (Scofield …

ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: June 16, 2020: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: To be determined ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 10B-4 C14-2020-0055 2 ISSUES: The Applicant supports the Staff recommendation of CH and CS-MU. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The proposed rezoning is for a +/- 161.4 acre tract located along the west side of SH 130 approximately 1,800 feet south of US 290 East. The property is zoned I-RR and is undeveloped. North of the property are undeveloped tracts zoned CS-CO, PUD, and I-RR. West and northwest of the property is a residential property zoned I-RR and a property located outside the City Limits that is developed with automotive repair services and a recycling collection facility. The southern boundary of the rezoning property is the Southwestern railroad. South of the railroad is undeveloped land zoned PUD. Southwest of the property is land zoned P that is part of the Walter E. Long parkland. Across SH 130 to the east is property zoned PUD that is developed with commercial and residential land uses. Please see Exhibits A and B—Zoning Map and Aerial Exhibit. The PUD zoned properties to the north, east and south of the proposed rezoning are all part of the Wildhorse Planned Unit Development. The portion that is located immediately north of the rezoning is under the same ownership but is not part of the rezoning request. This parcel may be incorporated into the overall development by providing vehicular access to the SH 130 southbound service road. The portion of the PUD that is south of the railroad boundary is planned primarily for residential land uses with park and other amenities. The Austin Strategic Mobility Plan (ASMP) includes an extension of Braker Lane across the rezoning property that divides the property into a northern tract (Tract 1) and a southern tract (Tract 2). …

June 16, 2020 Zoning and Platting Commission Q and A Report B-1. C14-2019-0162 - Slaughter and Cullen; District 2 Questions: Commissioner King As, I understand, the backup for this case indicates that the site is located in the Southpark Meadows Regional Center. The backup defines a Regional Center as: "the most urban of the three activity centers outlined in the growth concept map. These centers are the places where the greatest density of people and jobs and the tallest buildings in the region will be located." The Growth Concept map on pages A-30 and A-31 of the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan (IACP) shows Southpark Meadows as a Neighborhood Center. The IACP defines a Neighborhood Center as: "the smallest and least intense of the three types of activity centers outlined in the Growth Concept Map." Given that this site is located in a Neighborhood Center and not a Regional Center, does staff still recommend this zoning request? Why or why not? How may the public obtain a copy of the Southpark Meadows Neighborhood Center plan? Staff Response: Staff is still recommending this rezoning request. I confirmed with Comprehensive Long Range Planning Staff that the property is actually located in an Imagine Austin Town Center (rather than a Regional Center or a Neighborhood Center) and along an Activity Corridor. Town Centers and Activity Corridors support retail and commercial uses, which includes restaurants. Revised comments from Comprehensive Planning are attached and will be incorporated into future editions of the Staff report. The Long Range Planning staff has responded that there is no existing plan, nor plan in progress for the Southpark Meadows Center identified in the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan. See attached exhibit B-1. B-03 - C14-2020-0050 3100 Scofield Parkway Questions Commissioner King Could you please help me find the compliance report that was submitted on this same parcel in March 2015 to go from LR to CS-CO? Page 6 of the compliance report for this case indicates that the March 2015 zoning application was not approved. I'm trying to find the meeting date and minutes for the ZAP meeting at which the March 2015 zoning application was apparently denied. Staff Response: The previous zoning case for this property, case C14-2016-0035 (Scofield Farms), was withdrawn by the applicant on July 24, 2016 before a zoning case report was compiled and before the Zoning and Platting Commission reviewed the case.

Dear Commissioners: The Park Ridge Owners Association (“Park Ridge”) asks that you consider the following information prior to the zoning hearing on the subject property (the “Property”) that will be held next Tuesday, June 16. I will not have adequate speaking time to provide you with the background history on this matter that the neighbors believe is very important to your deliberations. 2007 Ordinances and Covenants In 2007, the neighbors in Park Ridge that were adjacent to this property and board members began discussions with the former owner regarding uses we believed would provide disruption and intrusion into our daily lives and our right to peaceful enjoyment of our homes. We were unable to reach accord on the uses we wished to restrict, with restaurant uses (both limited and general) being at the very top of our list of prohibited uses. At the first zoning hearing, several of the commissioners voiced their belief that there was sufficient cause to delay ruling on the matter at the first hearing, and the Chair of that commission, the legendary Ms. Betty Baker, formed a "task force" of commissioners, Applicant and neighborhood representatives. The following list of prohibited uses is contained in Ordinance Nos. 20070503-047 and 20070503-048 (the "Cullen and Slaughter Ordinances") and was agreed upon by Applicant and the Neighborhood as a result of the task force meetings. It was and remains our position that restaurants, especially fast food restaurants, would be detrimental to our neighbors whose properties are adjacent. After a round of kumbaya at the second hearing, the Commission ruled and the property was encumbered by the following list of prohibited uses pursuant to the Cullen and Slaughter Ordinances. Current Application to Remove Restaurants from Prohibited Use. Fast forward to 2020, and a new Applicant, who purchased the property at least five years ago, is seeking to rezone the property, and seeks to remove only restaurant uses from the prohibited 1 list. Literally nothing has changed since 2007 that would make a restaurant use now attractive to Park Ridge neighbors. We have the same homes, many of the same owners, and the old and new homeowners of those residences still object to restaurant uses being adjacent to their homes. Applicant advises that its proposed tenant will be a fast food fried chicken chain restaurant called "Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers." Their sole function is fried chicken, and some of their locations are …
