Dear Chair Smith: I am writing on behalf of the Angus Valley Area Neighborhood Association (AVANA) to express our support for Rezoning Case C14-2024-0170 concerning the property on Duval Rd. & 183. After some honest and productive conversations with the developer, we were able to reach an agreement that reflects real give-and-take. The signed Memorandum of Understanding outlines compromises that matter to us such as improved buffer zones, fencing, and other site considerations that will help protect the character of the surrounding neighborhood. We are grateful that the developer was willing to listen and adjust. With that in mind, AVANA supports this rezoning request, and we hope the Commission will approve it in alignment with the terms spelled out in the MOU (attached here for reference). Thank you for your time and for the work you do on behalf of Austin’s neighborhoods. Sincerely, Stacey Peterson President, AVANA Attachment: Signed MOU for C14-2024-0170 03 C14-2024-0170 - Duval PDA; District 61 of 3 03 C14-2024-0170 - Duval PDA; District 62 of 3 03 C14-2024-0170 - Duval PDA; District 63 of 3

BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION Urban Transportation Commission Recommendation Number 20540604-00X: Residential Parking Program Proposed Rule R161-25.10 WHEREAS, the Residential Permit Parking (RPP) program was created in 1997 to address overflow parking in neighborhoods adjacent to the University of Texas and has since expanded to over 52 zones citywide with more than 6,000 designated parking spaces; WHEREAS, the program requires resident engagement and significant community support, including 60–66.7% support from affected residents and evidence of 75% occupancy during a two-week survey to justify RPP implementation; WHEREAS, recent survey data gathered from over 750 participants and 5,500 responses indicate a significant level of dissatisfaction with the current RPP program, with 60–70% of comments being negative or critical, including concerns about fairness, program access for renters, and lack of enforcement; WHEREAS, the Director’s proposed rule changes include re-evaluation criteria, such as declaring a zone underutilized if fewer than 66% of eligible households purchase or renew permits annually, and improving procedural transparency around permit revocation and appeals; WHEREAS, the proposed Director Rules introduce more inclusive definitions of “resident” that acknowledge the realities of renters in multi-family units and propose new tools such as affordable permits, construction passes, and expanded access to day passes; WHEREAS, public feedback suggests a desire to shift the program’s stated goals away from guaranteeing residential convenience toward managing curb space as a public resource in a way that ensures safety, mobility, and fairness for all users of the public right-of-way; WHEREAS, equitable access to the public right-of-way is a key priority, and UTC believes the Director’s Rules should ensure that residents of larger multi-family properties are not excluded from visitor permit access or comparable benefits afforded to single-family homes; NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the UTC recommends the Director’s Rules maintain the following provisions: ● Hybrid Parking Regulations; ● Definition of resident in Section V(5), which is inclusive of Multi-Family residents; ● Allowing multi-unit residential properties with seven or more units to be eligible for Day Passes under Section XII(F)(1) ● Creation of Construction Passes under Section XII(F)(2); and ● Residential Parking Program Re-evaluation Criteria, including that a zone may be underutilized if fewer than 66% of eligible households purchase or renew permits annually in Section XI(C)(1); BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the UTC recommends the Director’s Rules are amended to remove provisions in Section I stating that the purpose of the Residential Parking Program is, in part, to make it …
