ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET Single Family Residence CASE: C14-2022-0025 – Mirador Drive – ZONING FROM: RR ADDRESS: 4901 Mirador Drive PROPERTY OWNER: Jauregui, Inc. (Luis Jauregui) AGENT: Jauregui, Inc. (Claudia De La Vega) CASE MANAGER: Andrei Lubomudrov (512-974-7659, DISTRICT: 8 TO: SF-2 SITE AREA: 1.4896 acres andrei. lubomudrov@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant single family residence – standard lot (SF-2) district zoning. For a summary of the basis of Staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments on page 2. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: April 19, 2022: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: May 19, 2022: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: On Monday, March 14, 2022, the Board of Adjustment approved a variance from the Land Development Code, Section 25-2-492 (Site Development Regulations) to decrease the minimum front yard setback from 40 feet (required) to 30 feet (requested) in order to erect a single family residence in a RR, Rural Residence district (C15-2022-0022 – 4901 Mirador Drive). The Applicant has submitted a rezoning application as a result of an error made during construction of the single family residence on the property. The property owner had begun to develop the property with a front setback of 30 feet compliant with the SF-2 zoning front setback minimum of 25 feet, whereas the existing RR zoning of the property calls for deeper front setback of 40 feet. 1 of 8B-3 C14-2022-0025 Page 2 CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The rezoning area is bisected by the Austin city limits line (Limited Purpose jurisdiction) and about half the property is in the City limits (1.4896 acres) and the remainder (1.2704 acres) is in the extraterritorial jurisdiction. The property is surrounded by single family residences on large lots in the Barton Creek Section M subdivision to the north, south and west (County; RR) and undeveloped land to the east (County). Rezoning to SF-2 for the portion of the property in City limits would bring the existing development into compliance and allow the property owner to move forward with the original plans. The owner has acknowledged making a mistake with the setback line in the City limits portion of the property. A 30-foot front setback line aligns with other recently developed homes in the subdivision. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. The family residence (SF-2) district is intended for a moderate density single-family residential use on a lot …

Create a working group of stakeholders, facilitated by Austin Energy staff, to suggest revisions to the single family and multifamily green building point system to strengthen human and environmental protections from harmful substances.

Austin Strategic Mobility Plan (ASMP) Amendments – Recommendations – Commissioner King • ASMP public engagement processes should intentionally include low-income families, families of color, and small community businesses including those at risk of involuntary displacement. • ASMP should include overarching policies to facilitate equitable transit and prevent involuntary displacement of low income families, families of color, and small community businesses along transit corridors. • The Technical Criteria Manual should not dictate or set ASMP policies or street level designations. • Public notice and protest rights should be afforded to all property owners, renters, and businesses subject to eminent domain or right of way acquisition associated with the ASMP. • All residents and businesses located within 500 feet of a proposed change in ASMP street level designation (level 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) should receive timely notification and be afforded protest rights. • The adopted Bicycle Plan, Sidewalk Plan, Urban Trails Plan, Vision Zero Action Plan, Pedestrian Safety Action Plan, Smart Mobility Roadmap, and Climate Equity Plan should be updated through equitable and transparent public processes prior to initiation of round two of the public engagement process for ASMP amendments. • The ASMP should include clear definitions of "new development" and "intensive redevelopment" that trigger a dedication of right of way.
Zoning and Platting Commission Austin Strategic Mobility Plan Resolution Whereas the City Council on June 10, 2020, asked staff to amend the Austin Strategic Mobility Plan (ASMP) to add the Project Connect system plan; and Whereas the City of Austin is currently updating three of its active transportation plans: the 2014 Urban Trails Plan, the 2014 Bicycle Plan, and the 2016 Sidewalk/ADA Transition Plan (ATX Walk Bike Roll); and Whereas the ASMP Street Network Table and Map is used to identify future right-of-way dedication requirements; and Whereas on November 15, 2021, the Austin Transportation Department released a first draft ASMP Street Network map; and Whereas Round 1 feedback included 1,647 map comments showing among other concerns particular opposition to changing neighborhood streets from Level 1 to Level 2 and the associated large increases in right-of-way; and Whereas further concerns were raised about expanding the Transit Priority Network where no transit service is planned and creating unfeasible or unsafe bicycle lanes; and Whereas on September 3, 2020, Ordinance No. 20200903-005 was approved to acquire land for the 2016 Corridor Program from the owners of 2,166 Austin parcels without prior notification. Now, therefore, be it resolved that the Zoning and Platting Commission encourages the Austin City Council that there should be no street level changes in the ASMP except to incorporate the Project Connect system plan as directed by the Austin City Council; and Be if further resolved that property owners and tenants whose frontage is listed for potential right-of- way increases be notified in their primary language before the City Council vote on the ASMP; and Be it further resolved that the ASMP team should coordinate with the Equity Office in public outreach to ensure the success of ATX Walk Bike Roll’s stated goal of achieving racial equity in planning efforts; and Be it further resolved that the Transit Priority Network be expanded only when transit service is added; and Be it further resolved that before a revised Bicycle Plan is incorporated into the ASMP, a Street Level 1B should be added to the Transportation Criteria Manual that indicates the presence of a bicycle lane for both curbed and non-curbed street designs without raising the right-of-way requirements to match Level 2 streets and that only approved and safe bike routes be included.
