January 16, 2024 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 1102 C14-2023-0053 - Bonnell Residential Rezoning; District 10 2 C14-2023-0053 ISSUES: The site in question is currently zoned LA, Lake Austin Residence District. It is a legal tract that is exempted from platting. According to the applicant, the Land Status Determination is eminent. The LA zoning district site development regulations require 100 feet for minimum lot width. Although the requested rezoning to SF-2 is supported by the staff, it will not bring this property into compliance with frontage requirements or allow for up to 45% impervious cover. The Code requires a property within the LA overlay district to comply with LA zoning development standards even if it is rezoned to SF-2. So according to LDC Sec. 25-2-647 - LAKE AUSTIN (LA) OVERLAY DISTRICT REGULATIONS still require a minimum of 100 feet for lot width. Therefore, the rezoning will not accomplish any change in the site development regulations for this property. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property under consideration is a 1.56 acre lot that is developed with a single family residence, …

We are reviewing the proposed use prohibitions you sent earlier. Also we will have an onsite meeting with the Quail Hollow Neighborhood this Wednesday afternoon. Given the tight timeframe for the need for backup for the 16th ZAP meeting, we would like to push back the ZAP consideration to the next ZAP meeting, which I understand is January 30th. This should allow us enough time to consider the use prohibitions, meet with the Neighborhood, and also submit an amended request addressing use prohibitions and the other information you suggested.

CASE MANAGER: Cynthia Hadri 512-974-7620, Cynthia.hadri@austintexas.gov STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The staff recommendation is to grant multifamily residence – medium density (MF-3) district zoning. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: December 5, 2023: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is 8.46 acres, developed with one building, has access to Bluff Springs Road (level 3) and Dan Pass (level 1), and is currently designated interim-rural- residence (I-RR). The property has single family residences and park (SF-6, SF-4A-CO and P) to the north, single family residences and Kendra Page Neighborhood Park (SF-2, SF-4A- CO and I-RR) to the south and east, and multifamily residences (moderate to high density) and the AISD transportation (MF-4, MF-4-CO and CS-MU-CO) so the west. Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and B (Aerial View). Staff is recommending the multifamily residence (medium density) (MF-3) district zoning as it is a lower multifamily zoning to take into account the single family residences surrounding the property. 05 C14-2023-0118 - 7331 & 7333 Bluff Springs Road; District 21 of 16 C14-2023-0000 2 Per the comprehensive plan review comments this site meets three of the Imagine Austin Decision Guidelines. The site adjoins a public sidewalk, shared path, and/or bike lane and is located within 0.25 miles of public transit stop and/or light rail station. It also expands the number of units and housing choice that suits a variety of household sizes, incomes, and lifestyle needs of a diverse population in support of Imagine Austin and the Strategic Housing Blueprint. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. 1. The multifamily residence (medium density) district is intended to accommodate multifamily use with a maximum density of up to 36 units per acre, depending on unit size. This district is appropriate for multifamily residential areas located near supporting transportation and commercial facilities, generally in more centrally located areas, and in other selected areas where medium density multiple use is desirable. 2. Zoning changes should promote compatibility with adjacent and nearby uses. The proposed zoning would promote compatibility with nearby uses as the properties to the west are …
