The conditional overlay would prohibit automotive rental, automotive sales, automotive repair services, automotive washing (of any type), and service station.

For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments on page 2.

At that time, the City of Austin attached TIA requirements via conditional overlay (CO) instead of via public restrictive covenant (RC). Staff recommends that the property remain subject to the TIA; City of Austin Law Department will determine whether a CO or RC is appropriate to tie the TIA to the property. DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: The subject property is located at the southeast corner of Dessau Road and Arborside Drive. The undeveloped property is currently zoned MF-3-CO, with the CO attaching TIA requirements as described in the Issues section. An unconstructed road right-of-way (ROW) is along the south side of the property (Edgeworth Bend), and unnamed streets are located along the east property lines.
