ORDINANCE AMENDMENT REVIEW SHEET Amendment: C20-2023-021 Electric Vehicle Charging Land Use Description: Amend City Code Title 25-2 (Zoning) to create a new land use for Electric Vehicle Charging. Background: Initiated by City Council Resolution No. 20230608-082. On June 8, 2023, City Council approved Resolution No. 20230608-082, initiating amendments to City Code Title 25 (Land Development) to create a new land use for “Electric Vehicle Parking.” The resolution directed staff to consider options that would prevent the use from becoming concentrated within activated or residential areas, allow the use through the conditional permit process, and limit the use to General Commercial Services CS or less restrictive zoning districts. Summary of Proposed Code Amendment: Amend City Code 25-2, Subchapter A, Article 4 (Commercial Uses Described) to add a new use of “electric vehicle charging” and to renumber the remaining uses accordingly: (26) Electric Vehicle Charging use is the use of a site for the charging of an electric vehicle (EV), including battery charging stations and rapid charging stations, each as defined by the United States Department of Energy. Amend City Code 25-2-491 (Permitted, Conditional, and Prohibited Uses) to add Electric Vehicle Charging to the use chart. Create a new section of Austin City Code (25-2-819 – Electric Vehicle Charging Use Regulations) to describe additional requirements applicable to the use, including: • Permitting the use in General Commercial Services (CS), Commercial Liquor Sales (CS- 1), Commercial Highway (CH), Industrial Park (IP), Major Industry (MI), Limited Industrial Services (LI), and Research and Development (R&D) zoning districts, with the following requirements: o The use is permitted on sites abutting suburban roadways, highways, hill country roadways, or internal circulation routes. o The use is permitted on sites abutting core-transit corridors, future core-transit corridors, and urban roadways if: ▪ The nearest Electric Vehicle Charging use is at least 1,000 feet away; and ▪ The site does not exceed 25,000 square feet in area. o The use is conditional on sites abutting core-transit corridors, future core-transit corridors, and urban roadways if: ▪ The nearest Electric Vehicle Charging use is less than 1,000 feet away; or ▪ The site exceeds 25,000 square feet in area. 4/23/2024C20-2023-0211 • Permitting the use on a site when the base zoning district is commercial or industrial and a service station use is an existing use or was a previous use for the site unless the use was already converted to a residential, restaurant …
ORDINANCE AMENDMENT REVIEW SHEET Amendment: C20-2023-024 HOME Phase 2 Description: Amend City Code Title 25 (Land Development) to revise regulations that apply to lots with one housing unit, including reducing the minimum lot size and regulations that apply to flag lots. Background: Initiated by Resolution No. 20230720-126. On July 20, 2023, City Council adopted Resolution No. 20230720-126, tasking staff with the development of amendments to the Land Development Code (LDC) with specific housing related objectives in mind. These objectives included reducing the minimum lot size for properties zoned single-family, permitting up to three housing units on such properties, and establishing a new Three-Unit Residential Land Use designation. Additionally, the changes aimed to introduce flexibility in housing configurations for properties zoned SF-1, SF-2, SF- 3, and SF-4A/B. This flexibility would encompass various housing types such as rowhouses, townhomes, duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, garden homes, and cottage courts. On December 7, 2023, City Council approved Ordinance No. 20231207-001 adopting code amendments that allow up to three housing units, including tiny homes, on a Single-Family (SF) zoned property, revising the regulations that apply to a property with two housing units, and removing restrictions on the number of unrelated adults living in a housing unit. Summary of Proposed Code Amendment: The proposed code amendments will reduce the minimum lot size and revise site development regulations for small lots to facilitate the development of one-unit homes with unit sizes and densities similar to those allowed under HOME Phase 1. The proposed changes: • Lower the minimum lot size for one unit from 5,750 sq ft to 2,000 sq ft • Adjust development standards for lots under 5,750 sq ft (i.e., small lots) • Reduce the minimum lot width • • Allow for a variety of detached and attached housing types • Remove Residential Design and Compatibility (i.e., McMansion or Subchapter F) Include design standards for driveways, front yards, and garage placement standards for small lots Increase impervious cover from 40% to 45% in SF-1 for small lots • • Adjust flag lot regulations to facilitate easier subdivision and to ensure sites do not exceed 45% impervious cover The following is not changed under this proposal: 4/23/2024C20-2023-0241 • Minimum lot size of 5,750 sq ft for two-unit and three-unit uses • Regulations for one unit on lots that are 5,750 sq ft or greater in lot size • • General size and heights established under the HOME …

The original zoning request did not require a change in the future land use map. However, when the rezoning request was amended, it triggered a neighborhood plan amendment. Therefore, both cases are being brought before the Planning Commission. On April 4, 2024, City of Austin staff sponsored a virtual community meeting to provide an opportunity for the neighborhood planning contact team, nearby residents, property owners, and any other interested parties to discuss the proposed development and the neighborhood plan amendment request.

(A. Azhar – 1st; F. Maxwell – 2nd] Vote: 10-0 [G. Anderson off the dais. P. Howard and A. Phillips absent]. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: To support the applicant’s request for Multifamily Residential land use. BASIS FOR STAFF’S RECOMMENDATION: Staff supports the applicant’s request for Multifamily Residential land use because there is Mixed Use land use directly to the north. Multifamily residential land use will serve as a buffer between the mixed-use land use to the north and the single family land use to the south. The property is also located less than 600 feet south of East MLK Junior Blvd, which is an activity corridor as identified on the imagined Austin Comprehensive Plan where additional density can be accommodated. The property owner is proposing approximately 45 mixed residential dwelling units, which will provide additional housing choices for the city and the planning area. 2 2 of 2716 NPA-2023-0015.05.SH - 1702 Deloney Street; District 1 Planning Commission: April 23, 2024 Below are sections of the East MLK Combined Neighborhood Plan that supports the applicant’s request: 3 LAND USE DESCRIPTIONS: EXISTING LAND USE: Single family - Single family detached or up to three residential uses at typical urban and/or suburban densities.

ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE: C14-2023-0141.SH DISTRICT: 1 ADDRESS: 1702 Deloney Street ZONING FROM: SF-3-NP TO: MF-2-NP SITE AREA: approximately 2.027 acres (approximately 88,296 sq. ft.) PROPERTY OWNER: 1702 Deloney, LLC AGENT: Drenner Group, PC (Leah M. Bojo) CASE MANAGER: Jonathan Tomko (512) 974-1057, jonathan.tomko@austintexas.gov STAFF RECOMMEDATION: Staff recommends granting multifamily residence-low density-neighborhood plan (MF- 2-NP) combining district zoning. See the basis of recommendation section below for more information. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: March 26, 2024: Applicant postponement request to April 23, 2024 granted. April 23, 2024: Case is scheduled to be heard by Planning Commission. CITY COUNCIL ACTION: TBD ORDINANCE NUMBER: N/A ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject tract currently has one vacant single-family home built in approximately 1952, of approximately 1,300 square feet. This represents a density of approximately 0.5 units per acre. To the north is undeveloped land, a church built in approximately 1970 of approximately 7,000 square feet, and a single-family home built in approximately 1953, of approximately 1,200 square feet. To the west is undeveloped land, and a triplex built in approximately 1977, of approximately 4,000 square feet. To the south is undeveloped land, one single-family home built in approximately 1952, of approximately 1,200 square feet. To the east are two single-family homes (under construction) and a duplex built in approximately 2004. While there is floodplain and a creek buffer within the subject tract it does not encumber enough of the tract that it is unable to be developed as requested by this rezoning. Further analysis will be conducted during the subsequent site plan review process. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: Zoning should promote clearly-identified community goals, such as creating employment opportunities or providing for affordable housing. 1 of 1117 C14-2023-0141.SH - 1702 Deloney Street; District 1 C14-2023-0141.SH 2 This rezoning would allow for the development of more diverse housing options and promote a range of price points based on diverse household needs. Neighborhood scale multifamily residential zoning is a critical part of reaching the community goal to create more “missing middle” housing. Granting multifamily residence-low density-neighborhood plan (MF-2-NP) combining district zoning here can provide lower density multifamily in a way that is consistent with the surrounding land uses. The rezoning should be consistent with the policies and principles adopted by the City Council or Planning Commission. Both Council and Planning Commission have adopted policies and principles to increase new residential development, specifically along Imagine …

BASIS FOR STAFF’S RECOMMENDATION: The applicant proposes to rezone the property from SF-3-NP to GO-MU-NP to open a beauty salon on the property. The applicant proposes to change the future land use map from Higher Density Single Family to Mixed Use land use. The property is located on Springdale Road which is an activity corridor where mixed use land use and developments are appropriate. Below are section of the neighborhood plan that supports the applicants request: LAND USE DESCRIPTIONS: EXISTING LAND USE: Single family - Single family detached or up to three residential uses at typical urban and/or suburban densities Purpose 1. Preserve the land use pattern and future viability of existing neighborhoods; 2. Encourage new infill development that continues existing neighborhood patterns of development; and 3. Protect residential neighborhoods from incompatible business or industry and the loss of existing housing. Application 1.

ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE: C14-2023-0156 (Springdale Beauty Salon) DISTRICT: 3 ADDRESS: 1035 Springdale Road ZONING FROM: SF-3-NP TO: GO-MU-NP SITE AREA: approximately 0.13 acres (approximately 5,750 sq. ft.) PROPERTY OWNER: Isaacs Yvonne Sandoval Living Trust AGENT: Thrower Design, LLC (Ron Thrower & Victoria Haase) CASE MANAGER: Jonathan Tomko (512) 974-1057, jonathan.tomko@austintexas.gov STAFF RECOMMEDATION: Staff recommends granting general office-mixed use-conditional overlay-neighborhood plan (GO-MU-CO-NP) combining district zoning, with a conditional overlay limiting the maximum height to 40 feet. The applicant has signaled agreement with the staff’s recommendation. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: April 23, 2024: 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 located just east of Springdale Road, just south of Munson Street and north of Alf Avenue. It is currently occupied by a single-family home of approximately 1,100 square feet built in approximately 1961. Single family homes abut the subject tract to the north, east and south. To the west across Springdale Road are five new 3-story townhomes built in 2024. The property owner/applicant seeks this rezoning to allow the in-home business use of a beauty salon which is not allowed under the current zoning category of SF-3-NP. A neighborhood plan amendment change is required with this rezoning. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: Public facilities and services should be adequate to serve the set of uses allowed by a rezoning Springdale Road is an ASMP level 2 roadway with sidewalks, bicycle routes and transit service. It is also an Imagine Austin Activity Corridor as is Airport Boulevard approximately 1,200 feet west of the subject tract. The subject tract is just outside, approximately 250 feet north of the Springdale Station Imagine Austin Activity Center. Allowing a beauty salon use in this location would be supported by both the transportation options available but also by Imagine Austin’s goal of, “allow[ing] people to 1 of 719 C14-2023-0156 - 1035 Springdale Beauty Salon; District 3 C14-2023-0156 2 SF-3-NP LAND USES SF-3-NP SF-3-NP SF-3-NP SF-6-NP reside, work, shop, access services, people watch, recreate, and hang out without traveling far distances.” Zoning changes should promote compatibility with adjacent and nearby uses. It is prudent to allow this use but also to limit the maximum height of the structure given the proximity of single-family structures closely abutting the subject tract. The applicant has signaled they are not opposed to a …
