Tentative Interim Amendment (TIA) Request Form Submitter’s Information Name: Donny Cook Affiliation: (Technical Committee, company, organization): NEC CMP-17, NEC CC, Shelby County, AL, Development Services Address: 1123 County Services Drive City: Pelham State:AL Email Address: dcook@shelbyal.com Zip:35124 Date: 7/28/2020 Proposed TIA Information NFPA Standard No.: Editions affected (Current and/or Proposed): NFPA 70 2020 Proposed text of the TIA (wording to be added, revised, how to be revised, or deleted): [Note: Proposed text should be in legislative format; i.e., use underscore to denote wording to be inserted (inserted wording) and strike-through to denote wording to be deleted (deleted wording).] Proposed text of the TIA (wording to be added, revised, how to be revised, or deleted): Revise 210.8 (F) as follows: 210.8(F) Outdoor Outlets. All outdoor outlets for dwellings, other than those covered in 210.8(A)(3), Exception to (3), that are supplied by single-phase branch circuits rated 150 volts or less to ground, 50 amperes or less, shall have ground-fault circuit-interrupter protection for personnel. This requirement shall become effective for ductless mini-split- type heating/ventilating/air-conditioning (HVAC) equipment and other HVAC units employing power conversion equipment as a means to control compressor speed on January 1, 2023. Informational Note: Power conversion equipment is the term used to describe components that are used in HVAC equipment that is commonly referred to as a Variable speed drive. Use of power conversion equipment to control compressor speed differs from multi-stage compressor speed control. Exception: Ground-fault circuit-interrupter protection shall not be required on lighting outlets other than those covered in 210.8(C). Statement of the problem and substantiation for the TIA This expansion of GFCI protection in the 2020 NEC to cover exterior outlets on dwelling units other than just those rated 125V is a necessary enhancement to safety. Code Making Panel 2 supported the expansion of GFCI protection to cover outdoor outlets rated 250V based on the electrocution of a young boy who came in contact with the energized enclosure of an outdoor HVAC unit. However recent field experience with new installations performed in accordance with the 2020 NEC has demonstrated some random opening of the GFCI devices protecting ductless mini splits. It has also become apparent that random opening may also occur with other equipment employing power conversion equipment controlling the speed of the compressor. The purpose of this TIA is not to eliminate the GFCI protection but provide time for the industry to understand and address the …

AGENT: Kimley-Horn (Luke Caraway) (Joseph Richter, Jr.) CASE MANAGER: Wendy Rhoades (512-974-7719, wendy.rhoades@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant general commercial services – conditional overlay (CS- CO) combining district zoning. The Conditional Overlay: 1) prohibits the following uses: adult-oriented businesses, automotive rentals, automotive repair services, automotive sales, automotive washing (of any type), commercial off-street parking, drop-off recycling collection facility, pawn shop services and residential treatment, and 2) requires a 15-foot wide vegetative buffer along the western property line. For a summary of the basis of Staff’s recommendation, see page 2. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: August 18, 2020: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: Planned to be scheduled for September 17, 2020: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: None at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The rezoning area is a 200-foot wide area within a larger platted lot located on the northbound IH 35 service road south of Slaughter Lane. It has had general commercial services – conditional overlay (CS-CO) district zoning since October 2014 and the southernmost portion contains the storage of construction vehicles. The rezoning area is otherwise characterized as undeveloped, sparsely vegetated and relatively flat, and slopes to the east, towards Onion Creek. To the north there is a drainage easement owned by TXDoT (SF-2), a recently constructed apartment development (MF-4-CO), as well as convenience B-021 of 19 C14-2020-0070 Page 2 storage and equipment rental uses (CS-CO; I-RR); to the east is undeveloped property owned by the Applicant (GR-CO); and to the south is an equipment repair and sales business also owned by the Applicant (LI-CO, I-SF-2; I-RR) and a TXDOT office/warehouse facility (GO- CO). Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and A-1 (Aerial View).

ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE: C14-2020-0063 – Pier Property Rezoning DISTRICT: 10 ZONING FROM: CS-1, LA ADDRESS: 1703 River Hills Road SITE AREA: 0.096 acres (4181.76 sq. ft.) PROPERTY OWNER: Tires Made Easy, Inc (Andrew S. Price) TO: CR AGENT: Husch Blackwell, LLP, (Nikelle Meade) CASE MANAGER Mark Graham (512-974-3574, mark.graham@austintexas.gov ) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant commercial recreation (CR) district zoning. For a summary of the basis of Staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments below. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: Planning to schedule for September 17, 2020 August 18, 2020: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES There is no new development proposed for the subject property. The requested CR zoning is required to repair the existing marina. There is a Travis County water district with a water intake nearby. Through their legal counsel, they expressed their concern about the proximity of the marina. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject property is addressed as 1703 River Hills Road. Currently there are no occupied structures or operating businesses on the 4.465 acre property. 1 of 9B-031 of 9 C14-2020-0063 2 The subject riverside and woodland property is surveyed as 4.465 acres (approximately 194,495 square feet) with approximately 212 feet of Lake Austin frontage. The requested rezoning tract is for the footprint of the existing marina (about 4,181 square feet). The marina was built to serve a restaurant that operated on the property but closed prior to 2006. The existing commercial-liquor sales (CS-1) zoning permits the bar/restaurant use as a primary land use and the Land Development Code allows a marina as an accessory use to a restaurant. Since the restaurant is not in operation, the marina becomes the primary use. The applicant stated that there are 20 boat slips and that they intend to reconstruct them in the same location. The requested commercial recreation (CR) zoning district allows a commercial marina as a primary use. An Austin Code Enforcement Official inspected the marina and determined that the boat slips may be unsafe and require repairs. The applicants responded to the enforcement notice and applied for permits to make the required repairs. The permits were denied because the marina does not have the correct zoning. The applicants indicate that they plan to remove all dangerous structures and make repairs when they can get permits to do so. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with …

We are putting signs on Elroy Road to that fact. 1) COTA Blvd is not a public thoroughfare. Gates are locked when there isn't an event. You can NOT have a "free" park or fields open to the public with locked gates. And on event days how do to separate park people from event people. You can't. Will not happen. 2) When FEMA changed/enlarged the flood plain, it now comes up, or close to the track. These mythical buildings would be in the flood plain, causing MORE down stream flooding then they have already been causing. COTA is not disclosing this to the 2 downstream neighborhoods effected. 1 or 2 new retention ponds will not stop the water pouring off a 170 ft hill.

Zoning and Platting Commission Q & A Report 5. Zoning: C814-2018-0122 - Circuit of the Americas PUD; District 2 Question: Commissioner Aguirre 1. In regards to Affordable Housing, what is the proposed estimated amount expected for the fee in lieu donation per the 2.5.6 Development Bonus? Response: It is not possible to provide an accurate estimate since the fee-in-lieu will be calculated as individual site plans are submitted. Once a site plan is submitted the fee will be calculated based on the current fee rate (which is updated on a yearly basis) multiplied by the bonus square footage of that particular site plan ( which is the square footage above what would have been possible under the baseline CS zoning). 2. It is implied, but need to clarify if the Atlas 14 requirements will be met? Atlas 14 requirements will be met 3. Part 1 of the Backup (p. 13; 2nd paragraph), states, "Applicant has acknowledged no deviations are being requested, and no superior is being proposed for drainage purposes. The requirements of t place at the time of future applications will apply. No further comment." Please clarify. 4. Where are the waste water lines going to be located? Response: The location of the water and wastewater lines will be determined during the Site Plan review process. 5. The Water Quality/Environmental Item (p. 20), under the PUD Proposal/Superiority Column, refers to the Integrated Pest Management Plan (IPM). Does IPM prohibit the use of toxic chemicals? Yes, it is a management plan for pesticides based on landscape and features on site. The Open Space/Parkland Item (p. 21), under the PUD Proposal/Superiority Column, refers to 10% above minimum with private and public open space. Of the 10%, what percentage of the open space will be public? Private? Response: Applicant is meeting more than 10% above in terms of Public Park acreage – 9.71 credited acres dedicated vs. 7.81 acres required. In addition, the applicant is building trails which will not be dedicated parkland (therefore private), and these will be outside of PARD’s jurisdiction. 6. Will Adult Oriented Business be included as a prohibited land use? Response: Yes, the applicant has stated that Adult Oriented Businesses will be prohibited in the PUD. The staff will read this information into the record at the Zoning and Platting Commission meeting. 7. In regards to public safety: a. Will WPD work with the applicant to incorporate …

Project (SPaces into Places) Re Surfaced East Austin 02.30.2020 ─ Raasin in the sun 1801 E 51st St, Suite 365 Austin, Texas 78723 1 Overview Resurfaced (Pilot) is a program initiative that explores creative strategies to activate underutilized urban spaces. As with many cities the size of Austin, surface parking and vacant lots have historically been unproductive in terms of serving the community versus benefiting vehicle parking for a good portion of the downtown and surrounding areas. Through Resurfaced, we work with the community and strategic partners to re-vitalize these spaces by making low-cost investments that activate the space NOW rather than waiting for big, long-term developments to take shape. These initiatives focus on the city as the ultimate user interface, where the community can experiment and enjoy unique locations filled with inspiring visual arts from local creative and begin dialog about how we can revive the multitude of surface lots and underutilized spaces, ultimately, turning spaces into places. Mission Our mission is to serve the community through urban beautification projects that unite residents and combat neighborhood deterioration. Through the implementation of project resurfaced we will create opportunities for players of all skill levels, age, and background to engage as a community through the sport of soccer, while providing a place to showcase visual arts, community gardens to enrich the space, and incorporate community centered events. Vision An environmentally conscious community space for pick-up games,community gardens, visual arts, and community events. Goals 1. Now 2. Later Resurfaced Team 2 Land Development/Code Specialist: Kelan Robinson Landscape Architecture: Kim Harding (DWG) Landscape Architecture: Daniel Woodfroff (DWG) Construction Manager: Mark Rogers Programs and Facilities: Raasin McIntosh Media/Content Specialist: Kris San Resurfaced National Model (Click title or image) 3 1604 E. 12th Street 4 5 Environmental Benefits What 'the Landscape' can do: ● Will upgrade current compacted site to previous field (grass or turf) ● Plant pockets of sponge park for stormwater infiltration ● Capture stormwater in cisterns (from the container roofs) for watering the field ● Shaded outdoor spaces/ tree plantings ● Plant pollinator species/ urban habitat ● Inspire care of the park and its surroundings, community cleanups ● Use of recycled and reusable construction materials for carbon sequestration ● Provide access to vital open space in a community that lacks a robust distribution of small neighborhood parks and open space.
