Apr 23, 2025 City of Austin Environmental & Planning Commission 301 West 2nd Street Austin, Texas 78701 RE: Land Use Commission Variance Requests for Removal of Heritage Tree SP-2025-0031C.SH 819 Tillery, Austin, Texas 78702 In accordance with LDC 25-8-643 and on behalf of the Owner of the project, this is a formal request for a Land Use Commission Variance to remove one Heritage Tree #3510. This removal request is associated with Reasonable Use/Reasonable Access with the project entitled Tillery Multifamily. This project, built over 13 acres in 3 separate phases, proposes to provide over 600 residential units to the East Austin neighborhood. Of these 600 units, 120 SMART Housing units will be provided with Phase 1 of the development. Of the remaining 480 units, 240 units will be provided at or below 80% MFI. A view of the existing conditions of this site has been provided as Exhibit 1 and an existing tree list has been provided as Exhibit 2. Development Impacts of Tree #3510 Existing Conditions + Lease Area - The subject property is over 13 acres and has a total of 47 existing Heritage trees. The Site Development Plan will be submitted for the entire 13-acre site, but Lifeworks only has a lease for a portion of the property that is slightly over one acre. In addition, the LifeWorks building will be required to develop their portion of the site with minimal demolition to the rest of the property because the existing tenants and buildings will remain in place. The proposed building and the requisite space for utilities and stormwater infrastructure fits very tightly within the 1-acre lease with little room for rearrangement. Please refer to the Phase 1 Site Plan as Exhibit 3 to help visualize these site constraints. Tree 3510 is located on the approximately 1-acre site under a long-term lease to the LifeWorks Affordable Housing Corporation. Preservation Impacts - Throughout the design process, architects worked through several different building configurations that designed around Tree #3510. With a 1 of 10 building footprint that creates a courtyard around Tree #3510 and used the rest of the leased area as building square footage it was found that the minimum unit count could not be met. The preservation of Heritage Tree #3510 would require that the Lifeworks PSH building lose a significant number of units (27 of 120). If this development does not provide a minimum of 120 …

The applicant shall submit and implement a Care Plan for the duration of the lease for the 34 preserved Heritage trees, including routine inspection, pruning, mulching, watering, and pest management, to ensure long-term health and viability. 2.

This site opted to remove itself from the City of Austin’s ETJ in September 2024. WHEREAS, the Environmental Commission recognizes the site is located in Lake Travis Watershed, North Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone, and the Drinking Water Protection Zone, and WHEREAS, the Environmental Commission recognizes that Staff does not recommend the SER.

If the applicant were required to comply with City of Austin environmental standards, the impervious cover would be limited to 20% of the net site area. 2. The site is also within the North Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone and is upstream of known Jollyville Plateau salamander habitat. 3.
