The proposed MI-PDA zoning will allow for a mixture of high-density residential uses, office uses, commercial uses and industrial uses to be developed on the property in question. The location of the site is appropriate for the proposed mixture and intensity of uses because the site …

C20-2023-030 ORDINANCE AMENDMENT REVIEW SHEET Amendment: C20-2023-030 Site Specific SOS amendment Description: Amends Land Development Code (LDC) 25-8 Article 13 Save Our Springs Initiative of the Land Development Code as it relates to impervious cover limits and water quality treatment for proposed development on a 2 lot subdivision at 1905 & 1908 Airole Way. Proposed Language: Consider an ordinance regarding a site-specific amendment to City Code Chapter 25-8, Subchapter A, Article 13 (Save Our Springs Initiative), as minimally required to address development related to the proposed resubdivision and development at 1905 and 1908 Airole Way. This action concerns land located in the Barton Springs Zone. Summary of proposed code amendment The amendment under consideration is related to proposed development and resubdivision of two platted residential lots at 1905 (Lot 19) & 1908 (Lot 18) Airole Way and an unplatted lot (Tract 2) in the Barton Hills neighborhood. The property is located in the Barton Creek Watershed, in the Barton Springs Zone, and within the recharge zone of the Edwards Aquifer, which pursuant to current city code and the Save Our Springs (SOS) ordinance, requires non-degradation water quality treatment for all development and impervious cover limited to 15% Net Site Area (NSA). The proposed development of the site includes the renovation and expansion of an existing historic residence on the combined area of Lot 18 and Tract 2, and construction of a new residence on the currently undeveloped Lot 19. The existing total combined area of the site (Lot 18, Lot 19 and Tract 2) is 0.55 acres (24,023 sqft). The SOS ordinance would limit the total impervious cover for the subdivision to 15% NSA (0.0539 acres or 2348 sqft). The proposed SOS amendment requests an impervious cover limit of 32.9% Gross Site Area (GSA) (0.1818 acre or 7920 sqft). Additionally, single family residential make it difficult to meet SOS non-degredation water quality control requirements so the proposed SOS amendment also includes a request to allow the project to meet water quality treatment requirements by providing rainwater capture of ½” off the roof. Lastly, because LDC 25-8-515 prohibits variances from the SOS Ordinance, a site-specific amendment to the SOS Ordinance approved by a supermajority of the City Council is necessary to allow the proposed resubdivision and associated development of 1905 & 1908 Airole Way. The proposed site-specific SOS amendments are being requested to allow the following improvements: • Renovation and expansion …
