SPECIAL EVENTS TASK FORCE - RECOMMENDATION 20220615-2A Seconded By: Mandi Thomas Date: 6/15/22 Subject: Recommendations to City Staffing to Support Special Events Motioned By: Ingrid Weigand Description of Recommendations to Council: Encourage funding for positions needed to process ACE applications and provide on site staffing for special events. RECOMMENDATION The Special Event Task Force encourages City Council and ACE departments to increase funding, as needed, for positions that support special event permit application reviews and on- site staffing for special events. Rationale: In addition to an increase in special event applications in 2022 as the industry emerges from the pandemic, the City of Austin has added new high-capacity venues that regularly program large events. As the City enters the budget cycle, the Task Force stresses the importance of ACE departments to identify where there are gaps in staffing, communicate their needs to the Budget Office, and for Council to fund these positions. Special event permit applicants benefit from timely reviews that allow for preliminary approval, and adequate review and on-site staffing ensures events can take place on their desired date and be successful.

SPECIAL EVENTS TASK FORCE REGULAR CALLED MEETING MEETING MINUTES 15, JUNE, 2022 The Special Events Task Force convened in a regular meeting on 15, June, 2022, at 6310 Wilhelmina Delco Drive in Austin, Texas.

City Staffing for Special Events, Non-Public Safety Mr. Summers clarified that on-site staffing in this instance was for non-public safety departments such as PARD, ATD, Code, or any instance where City staff are present during special events. The Task Force considered the following recommendation language proposed by Co-Chair Russell: Description of Recommendations to Council: Encourage funding for positions needed to process ACE applications and provide on site staffing for special events. 1 RECOMMENDATION The Special Event Task Force encourages City Council and ACE departments to increase funding, as needed, for positions that support special event permit application reviews and on-site staffing for special events. Rationale: In addition to an increase in special event applications in 2022 as the industry emerges from the pandemic, the City of Austin has added three new high-capacity venues that regularly program large events. As the City enters the budget cycle, the Task Force stresses the importance of ACE departments to identify where there are gaps in staffing, communicate their needs to the Budget Office, and for Council to fund these positions. Special event permit applicants benefit from timely reviews that allow for preliminary approval, and adequate review and on-site staffing ensures events can take place on their desired date and be successful. The Task Force discussed if an expedited process should be included and whether staff had concerns about their staffing. Mr. Summers (ACE) said staff would consider working on an expedited process, but the Task Force should take action if they want to direct us to create one, he also indicated staff felt they were regularly bringing their staffing needs in budget proposals but would welcome support of the event community to emphasize the importance of funding staff in the future. …

DESCRIPTION OF WAIVER: This item was a discussion item at the April 12th Planning Commission meeting, and the applicant made adjustments to their proposed site plan based on the Planning Commission and community feedback. It was again a discussion item at the May 24th Planning Commission meeting where it was postponed until this meeting. The applicant is requesting a waiver from § 25-2-1063. This site is subject to a 25’ compatibility setback and the proposed development is encroaching into the 25’ setback on the north and west property lines. The west property line abuts an alley with an SF-3 property with a 5’ rear setback on the opposite side of the alley and the north property line abuts an SF-3 property with a 5’ interior side yard setback. After the April 12th meeting discussion, the applicant is now proposing the two units on the north side of the site to be setback 7’ from the triggering north property line and the units on the western side to be setback 18’ from the triggering property on the west side. If approved, this waiver will not impact sightlines at the intersection of 14th Street and Cedar Avenue. COMPATIBILITY: Section 25-2-1051 states that Article 10 Compatibility Standards apply if a use in a SF-6 or less restrictive zoning district is located on a property across the street from or adjoining a property on which is zoned SF-5 or more restrictive, or on which a use is permitted in a SF-5 or more restrictive zoning district is located. § 25-2-1063 - HEIGHT LIMITATIONS AND SETBACKS FOR LARGE SITES. 1 of 19B-11 of 19 1400 Cedar Ave 1400 Cedar Ave SP-2021-0102C (A) This section applies to a site that has: (1) an area that exceeds 20,000 square feet; or (2) a street frontage that exceeds 100 feet.

The site plan actually proposes reducing impervious cover from about 97% to about 72%. The city has also recommended the site connect access to the alley but not required it.

Are there any remaining concerns that the city has about the proposed plan? It seems like there could be a impermeable coverage issue as well as no entry/exit facing the alley. On Tue, Mar 1, 2022 at 3:57 PM Lofton, Zack <Zack.Lofton@austintexas.gov> wrote: Hi there, Ian: Please see my comments below in red. • Will there be sidewalks surrounding the property on both Cedar Ave and 14th street? Yes, they are proposing sidewalks on both streets. • Will there be a minimum of 2 on-site parking spaces per unit? If not, is it allowed by the city to have less? There is not a minimum of 2 on-site parking spaces per unit and yes it is allowed that they have 1 1 of 57B-1 less. They will have 11 spaces which meets the City’s requirement without any waivers or variances. They will also have bike parking spaces as well. • Is the height of any of the proposed units above city allowances? No, they are within all height limits. • How long is the proposed construction timeline? I do not have an answer to that, since this is just the site plan stage and so early in the process. That would be a question …

CASE: C14-2022-0042 – Burleson - Norwood Corner DISTRICT: 2 ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CO Amendment (Emanuel Limuel, Jr.) ZONING FROM / TO: CS-MU-CO-NP, to change a condition of zoning ADDRESS: 8016 Burleson Road SITE AREA: 2.362 acres PROPERTY OWNER: Friendly Will Baptist Church AGENT: Thrower Design, LLC (Victoria Haase) CASE MANAGER: Wendy Rhoades (512-974-7719, wendy.rhoades@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant general commercial services – conditional overlay – neighborhood plan (CS-CO-NP) combining district zoning. The Conditional Overlay would be modified to remove limited warehousing and distribution from the prohibited use list in Ordinance No. 030424-27 as shown in Exhibit B. The basis of Staff’s recommendation is provided on pages 2 - 3. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: June 14, 2022: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: July 28, 2022: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: The Applicant is in agreement with the Staff recommendation to rezone the property to CS- CO-NP. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject rezoning area consists of one platted lot, located at the north corner of Burleson Road and Norwood Lane. The subject site is currently zoned general commercial services – mixed use – conditional overlay – neighborhood plan (CS-MU-CO-NP) combining district zoning. The subject site is an undeveloped lot landscaped with natural grasses. There are other single-family residences to the northeast (CS-MU-CO-NP), a small used car dealership to the southeast (CS-NP), a construction company and warehouse use to the northwest (CS- B-71 of 15 C14-2022-0042 Page 2 CO-NP; IP-CO-NP), and industrial uses to the southwest (LI-CO). Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and A-1 (Aerial Exhibit). In April 2003, the subject property and the remainder of the blocks on the north and south sides of Norwood Lane were rezoned to CS-MU-CO-NP following Council direction provided at the conclusion of the Southeast Neighborhood Plan. Because the properties are within the Airport Overlay Zone 3 (AO-3, also known as the ½ mile buffer zone), new residential development is not allowed to occur outside of recorded final plats, municipal utility districts (MUDs) or certain neighborhood plans. The mixed use (MU) allows for continuation of the existing single family residences on Norwood Lane because they are within the recorded Blue Bonnet Gardens subdivision which predated adoption of the Airport Hazards and Compatible Land Uses ordinance by several decades. The Conditional Overlay (-CO) allows for personal services, personal improvement services, and general commercial service uses, but also prohibits a broad range of potential uses, …
