From: twylagrace Sent: Tuesday, October 4, 2022 12:46 PM To: Rivera, Andrew <Andrew.Rivera@austintexas.gov> Cc: 'Trey Neinast' < Subject: C14-2021-0003 - South Lakeline Residential-Mixed Use; District 6 - 10/4/2002 6:00 p.m. - Austin Zoning & Platting Commission *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Good Afternoon Mr. Rivera, I signed up for the teleconference tonight on the above referenced case regarding Riviera Springs Subdivision in Cedar Park, Texas. I have not received an email confirming, but I got a pop-up which said I was confirmed and had signed up. Just in case I some how fall through the cracks on this meeting, I want it to be registered I am OPPOSED to this zoning change. Trey Neinast is our primary speaker for this case. I support Trey in his efforts to get the right thing done by our neighborhood (and he is within 200 feet of the proposed zoning). I am also OPPOSED to any type of a variance through the CWQZ – the critical water quality zone running through our neighborhood park and beyond Rosemary Denny Park. I believe there has already been sufficient damage done to this zone through all the commercial activity and abuses. Additionally, I would like to see West Riviera Drive at South Lakeline Boulevard completely cut off from all the mall traffic and South Lakeline cut throughs. Our neighborhood is a precious little gem in the middle of edge city. We were here first and should be allowed some respect for keeping a tax base in place for so many years. We have several entrances and exits in the front of the neighborhood which can accommodate everyone in this neighborhood and a few others. Please consider this as an option for protecting our neighborhood. Please feel free to share this email with the City Zoning and Platting Commission. Please also feel free to contact me should you have additional questions or need more information. With kindest regards, I am, Twyla Grace Twyla Grace 2115 West Riviera Drive Cedar Park, Texas 78613 512.962.0674

From: To: Subject: Date: Rhoades, Wendy Postponement Request= Please forward Tuesday, October 4, 2022 11:11:59 AM *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** This letter is written by John Stokes and Margaret Valenti, D2 constituents who live on Peaceful Hill Lane - just west of South Congress Avenue. We are also representatives of the Peaceful Hill Preservation Association. We are writing to you today on the matter of 2 active zoning cases on Peaceful Hill Lane. The two cases are as follows: 7901 Peaceful Hill Lane - Peaceful Hill Residential · · · · · C14-2022-0039 2.7 acres Existing Zoning: DR, development reserve Proposed Zoning: SF-6 (Townhomes, Condos) Status: ZAP hearing set for 10/4 220 Ralph Ablanedo - Crux Climbing Gym · · · conditional overlay · overlay, to remove the vehicle trip per day limit · Status: ZAP hearing set for 10/4 C14-2022-0077 3.99 acres - Corner of Peaceful Hill Lane and Ralph Ablanedo Existing Zoning: LI-CO, limited industrial services - conditional overlay; CS-CO, general commercial services - Proposed Zoning: LI-CO, limited industrial services - conditional overlay; general commercial services - conditional We are eager to share our thoughts and opinions at ZAP. However, both items are on the agenda for October 4th. We are requesting a postponement of both of these cases for the following reasons: In the first case: We have been in conversation with representatives for up to a year on this case but we have unfortunately not been able to come to mutual agreement on several outstanding issues. This process has been complicated by the applicants very slow responses to our correspondence and requests for information about the project. Both sides are negotiating , although over a protracted period of time. The timing of Applicant responses has made it difficult to distribute information and assess reactions to the neighborhood to various proposals by the Applicant in a timely fashion. In spite of slow applicant responses, there is reason to believe an agreement can be reached if the matter were postponed while further negotiations take place between the neighborhood and the Applicant. We respectfully request a postponement of sufficient length to give the Peaceful Hill neighborhood and the Applicant an opportunity to resolve outstanding differences prior to a ZAP hearing. In the second case, we have received only one reply to our concerns from the Applicant, and only very recently. We have had no reasonable opportunity …

Item #3 – Input from Lewis Leff – Austin Transportation/Vision Zero We have a public website that has a dashboard and a map which shows historical data as well as data through 2 weeks ago. https://visionzero.austin.gov/viewer/ There are important insights that I’d like to point out for your upcoming conversation. • There are ~13,000 crashes that receive a crash report from a peace officer each year, and tens of thousands of other minor collisions. The loss of life and quality of life for those directly involved in the most severe crashes is staggering. And the total volume of crashes requires an incredible amount of public safety resources to respond to these incidents, and has huge aggregate implications on traffic congestion and more for our community. • You’ll see a modal breakdown on the website. Pedestrian fatalities in Austin are rising, similar to statewide and national trends. High vehicular speeds, larger vehicles, lack of sufficient lighting, and roadway design are the key systemic reasons for this. Bicyclist fatal crashes are maintaining a relatively low level after years of investment from our community in safer infrastructure. • I would encourage you all to look at the map page, as the location and time of crashes tells a story as well. Over half of our fatal crashes happen between 8pm-4am. Historically, ~2/3 of our fatal crashes happen on-system (TxDOT-owned roadways like freeways and frontage roads and major arterials) and this year that number is up to 3/4.
