6 March 2025 To the Board Members of the Planning Commission: My name is Brian Bedrosian. I am the Chair of the North Loop Neighborhood Plan Contact Team (NLNPCT – the “neighborhood”). I am writing this letter on behalf of the NLNPCT in support of United Properties’ (the “applicant”) request for DB90 zoning to be added to the combined properties north of 56th Street, south of Koenig Lane, east of the CapMetro Red Line tracks and west of Airport Blvd (collectively referred to as the “northern parcels”)– properties in the north-central sector of our plan area. On February 26th the NLNPCT held a Special Session devoted to the greater project that United Properties is proposing to build in this area of the neighborhood. The project area includes the northern parcels mentioned above, as well as additional properties within the same east-west boundaries down to 55th Street, along with a triangle of land between the Red Line tracks and the FLORA development just south of 55th (collectively referred to as the “southern parcels”). Stephen Buchanan of United Properties was in attendance at our meeting and presented the applicant’s current plans for the project. After much discussion, the eligible NLNPCT voting members present, representing a quorum of the overall NLNPCT membership, voted unanimously to support the applicant’s zoning requests contingent upon the signing of a Memorandum Of Understanding (MOU) between United Properties and the NLNPCT. In order to provide sufficient time to negotiate the contents of this MOU, the NLNPCT voted to permit the applicant to proceed with presenting their zoning case for the northern parcels to the Planning Commission and in exchange United Properties has agreed to postpone the hearing on the southern parcels until the MOU is signed and approved by both parties. 04 C14-2024-0167 - Airport & Koenig DB90 Tracts Rezoning - Parcel A1 of 2 We believe that this project has the opportunity to achieve the goals of North Loop Neighborhood Plan which targeted this area in our FLUM as a Neighborhood Urban Center. This land use category would provide increased density and affordability, new retail and commercial offerings, and rich public spaces – acting as an extension of our already successful urban corridor along North Loop Boulevard (53rd Street). We are concurrently working with the Parks and Recreation Department (PARD), ATP, TPW, CapMetro, the Redline Parkway Initiative, and Council District 4 to ensure that this project offers …

(T.J. Schultz) AGENT: Dubois Bryant & Campbell, LLP (David Hartman) CASE MANAGER: Marcelle Boudreaux (512-974-8094, marcelle.boudreaux@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends granting a Termination of the Restrictive Covenant. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: RESTRICTIVE COVENANT TERMINATION RECORDING NUMBER: March 11, 2025: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ISSUES: None at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The proposed Restrictive Covenant Termination area is comprised of approximately 1.08 acres and is adjacent to Airport Boulevard, a transit-rich Imagine Austin corridor. The subject area is currently zoned CS-V-CO-NP (general commercial services – vertical mixed use building – conditional overlay – neighborhood plan) combining district. The property is located within the North Loop Neighborhood Plan Area, and is located within an area that was initiated by the City to zone certain tracts within the Neighborhood Plan area to 08 C14-79-019(RCT) - 701 and 703 E. 55th St. Public RC Termination – Parcel D1 of 27 C14-079-019(RCT) Page 2 accommodate the -V zoning district in 2008 (Ordinance No. 20080605-069). It is currently developed with an automobile parts retail store. The Restrictive Covenant states that the property should be developed in accordance with a site plan approved March 6, 1979, which relates to the existing development on the property. The Applicant proposes to terminate the Restrictive Covenant to allow for development of a multifamily project on the property. Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map), A-1 (Aerial View) and C (1979 Restrictive Covenant). BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: Staff supports the Termination request. A rezoning request is also on file for this Parcel (C14-2025-0012) from CS-V-CO-NP to CS-V-CO-DB90-NP. A building constructed under density bonus 90 (–DB90) standards allows for a mix of residential uses and commercial uses, and the result is typically retail, restaurants and offices on the ground floor, and residential units on upper levels. City Council has provided policy and direction for having more residential density and increased affordability, as well as incentivizing vertical mixed use buildings throughout the City. Further, City Council previously approved rezoning this property to allow for vertical mixed-use buildings in 2008. Therefore, the 1979 Restrictive Covenant is no longer required on the site. EXISTING ZONING AND LAND USES: ZONING Site CS-V-CO-NP North CS-V-CO-NP …
