BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION Planning Commission Recommendation Number: 20240611-033 Senior Cooperative Housing WHEREAS, seniors are the fastest growing segment of the population falling into homelessness, composing nearly half of the unhoused population, with numbers estimated to triple by 2030. 1 WHEREAS, more than 1 in 5 Americans over 65 are, or are at risk of becoming, “elder orphans”, meaning they have no family available to support them as they age. WHEREAS, there are about 42.5 million Americans with disabilities, making up 13% of the civilian noninstitutionalized population, including people with hearing, vision, cognitive, walking, self-care or independent living difficulties. WHEREAS, an estimated 4.1 million Americans per year are reaching retirement age and more than half will have to rely primarily on social security as their source of income. 2 WHEREAS, in the Austin-Round Rock MSA, 38% of those 65 and older are housing cost burdened and 85% of older adults cannot afford assisted living, 3 meaning that many seniors’ only option is to age in place, often alone. WHEREAS, service providers will be increasingly challenged to meet the needs of aging, cost-burdened seniors who live individually and across large geographic areas. City of Austin service funding dollars will increasingly fall short of meeting the needs of this population. 1 Culhane et al., “The Emerging Crisis of Aged Homelessness: Could Housing Solutions Be Funded by Avoidance of Excess Shelter, Hospital, and Nursing Home Costs?” 2019 2 Shapiro and Stuttgen, “The Peak Boomers Impact Study: A Majority of Peak Boomers Are Not Financially Prepared for Retirements and Their Retirements Will Have Large Effects on the U.S. Economy” 2024 3 Harvard Joint Center for Housing Studies, “Housing America’s Older Adults” 2023 WHEREAS, mobility among seniors becomes increasingly challenging as many older adults lose their ability to drive but continue to need access to healthcare providers, groceries, and other services. Local senior mobility programs will struggle with capacity to meet the coming demand as Austin’s senior population grows. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF AUSTIN: The Austin City Council should prioritize city-owned land, especially within ETODs, for the development of income-restricted shared-equity senior housing and housing for people with disabilities, including cooperative housing and community land trusts (CLTs). BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED: Shared equity forms of housing like cooperatives can provide affordability, community, and easy service- provider access for Austin’s older adults and people with disabilities at a much …

ITEM04/10 City of Austin Board of Adjustments c/o Elaine Ramirez City of Austin Development Services Department Re: 2913 Westlake Cove: Requesting: 1) partial setback reduction 75’ shoreline to 50’ (for width of 40’); 2) maintain 5’ side yard setbacks in lieu of 10’ required; 3) propose 48% IC in 0-15% slope (reduced from 54%) in lieu of required 35% IC in 0-15% slope Board of Adjustment Members: The proposed project seeks a mixture of setback variances to remedy a history of erroneous permit approvals and inspections approved by the City of Austin as a result of improper application information, incorrect AMANDA records for corresponding permit approvals, and to ultimately remedy the currently clouded title and non-compliant impervious coverage and setback encroachments resulting from 8-10 permit approvals and numerous subsequent building inspection approvals by the City of Austin over the span of a decade ranging from 2006 – 2017. The current requests would allow a remodel and addition to occur while reducing the various setback and impervious coverage compliance issues caused by a series of erroneous approvals. The following hardships are unique to the property and affect reasonable redevelopment: 1. The gross site area of the lot is 31,286 ft.² (.71 ac) per TCAD vs. lot size of 43,560 ft.² for LA zoning; 2. Lot 14 Lago Villa Addition issued Legal Tract Determination dating site to March 1982; 3. The lot is subject to a 75’ shoreline setback resulting in net site area of 18,928.ft²; 4. The 75’ shoreline setback is 8,595 ft.²; 5. The inundated land area is 3,763 ft.²; 6. The combined 40’ front and 10’ side zoning setbacks are 6,960 ft.²; 7. 0–15% slope category allows 35% maximum IC, or 6,154 ft.²; 8. Existing 0-15% IC = 9,491 ft.² , or 54% 9. Proposed 0-15% IC = 8,884 ft.² , or 47.5% 10. The rear portion HVAC erroneously approved within 75’ shoreline setback; 11. Portions of residence encroach into 10’ side setback as result of 2014 LDC code changes; 12. The site is further encumbered by several protected tree CRZ’s and required OSSF field; 13. The site is severely restricted given constraints beyond owner’s control. The proposed remodel / addition proposes to add a 2nd floor to portions of the existing 1st floor residence in order to allow for contemporary floorplan suited to aging owner’s mobility and overall use of property. The following (3) three variance requests are …
