Mary) ADDRESS: 200 and 204 West Mary Street ZONING FROM: SF-3-NP SITE AREA: approximately 0.1585 acres (approximately 6,904 square feet) PROPERTY OWNER: Herb Bar Soco, LLC AGENT: Husch Blackwell, LLP (Nikelle Meade) CASE MANAGER: Jonathan Tomko (512) 974-1057, jonathan.tomko@austintexas.gov STAFF RECOMMEDATION: Staff does not recommend granting community commercial-mixed use-neighborhood plan (GR-MU-NP) combining district zoning and offers the alternative recommendation of neighborhood commercial-mixed use-conditional overlay-neighborhood plan (LR- MU-CO-NP) combining district zoning. The conditional overlay would prohibit financial services, off-site accessory parking, pedicab storage and dispatch, pet services, printing and publishing, professional office, service station, theater, college and university facilities. See the basis of recommendation section below for more information. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: June 11, 2024: Case is scheduled to be heard by Planning Commission. CITY COUNCIL ACTION: TBD ORDINANCE NUMBER: N/A ISSUES: Applicant will need to coordinate with the Texas Historical Commission (THC) to determine what kind of work can be done to the building. The Stanley House is on the lot immediately to the west, but it is unclear how far the THC designation boundary extends. Any major work would need to also go through the Landmark Commission if it involves demolition because the main building at 200 West Mary Street was noted as a high priority building in one of the City’s historic surveys. It is possible that the Commission would initiate historic zoning if it is eligible and if the proposed work endangers the building’s ability to convey its significance. The building at 204 West Mary Street is a low priority building. Although the property is zoned as residential, the property has operated as the Herb Bar, a commercial use, since 1986. Prior to 1986, there is also evidence of a retail/food sales use on C14-2023-0021 2 the property since the early 1900’s when it operated as a general store providing groceries to the neighborhood. In 2018, an Amnesty Certificate of Occupancy was issued for the existing retail/food sales uses. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is currently the Herb Bar that sells herbal products in an approximately 720 square foot building built in approximately 1925. The approximately 1,249 square foot building at 204 West Mary Street was built in approximately 1935 contains Massage Master, a personal service use. To the north is a single-family dwelling built in approximately 1994, approximately …

[F. Maxwell – 1st; A. Azhar – 2nd] Vote: 10-0 [G. Anderson and A. Woods absent. One vacancy on the dais]. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Recommended for applicant’s request for Major Planned Development land use. BASIS FOR STAFF’S RECOMMENDATION: Staff supports the applicants request for Major Planned Development because this 0.56-acre tract is proposed to be included in previously approved planned amendment and zoning cases to be combined for a proposed 21-acre mixed use development. The development is proposed to include clean industrial creative and maker spaces, retail, office, restaurant, and multifamily uses. This area was once proposed for industrial uses but has transitioned over the years to include a mix of uses that will provide services and additional housing for the east side of City. To the south of the property is an opportunity to potentially connect to a future Capital Metro Green Line train station and the opportunity to create a trail connecting to the Southern Walnut Creek Greenbelt. Sections from the East MLK Combined Neighborhood Plan that staff believes supports the applicant’s request. Goal One: Preserve established residential areas and improve opportunities for home ownership by promoting the rehabilitation of existing housing and new, infill housing compatible with the existing style of this neighborhood. Objective 1.2: Promote new infill housing in appropriate locations. Goal Two: Promote a mix of land uses that respect and enhance the existing neighborhood and address compatibility between residential, commercial, and industrial uses. Objective 2.2: Reduce the impact of commercial and industrial uses on residential areas. Goal Three: Preserve existing small businesses and encourage new neighborhood-serving commercial …

Bojo, AICP) CASE MANAGER: Jonathan Tomko (512) 974-1057, jonathan.tomko@austintexas.gov STAFF RECOMMEDATION: Staff recommends granting limited industrial services-planned development area- neighborhood plan (LI-PDA-NP) combining district zoning. The existing conditional overlay that limited daily vehicle trips to no more than 2,000 per day is recommended for removal. However, TPW recommends a Restrictive Covenant tying this site to the TIA for C14-2020-0150. See the basis of recommendation section below for more information. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: June 11, 2024: Case is scheduled to be heard by the Planning Commission. CITY COUNCIL ACTION: TBD ORDINANCE NUMBER: N/A ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject property is located east of Ed Bluestein Boulevard and north of the proposed Capital Metro Green Line rail right of way. Properties surrounding the subject tract on all sides have recently been rezoned LI-PDA-NP, please see the area case histories section below. The applicant has stated their intent to combine the tracts as one cohesive development, a collective 21-acre mixed use development with clean industrial creative and maker spaces, retail, office, restaurant, and multifamily uses. The site development standards are identical to the development standards already approved with the previous cases; however, the applicant has removed their previous modification requests related to the City’s parking requirements so that the development standards are more in line with the City’s present Code. C14-2024-0021 2 Staff supports this request as it is in line with other rezonings to LI-PDA-NP surrounding the subject tract and would enable the owner to combine the tracts into one cohesive development with standard site development regulations, authorized uses, and prohibited uses. Existing Zoning A conditional overlay was applied through Ordinance No. 20060727-114 that would limit daily vehicle trips to no more than 2,000 per day.
