ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION/ RECOMMENDATION: May 17, 2022: April 5, 2022: To grant postponement to May 17, 2022, as requested by applicant, on consent.

ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET DISTRICT: 5 ZONING TO: GR CASE: C14-2022-0020 – 2103 W Slaughter ZONING FROM: LR-MU-CO ADDRESSES: 2103 West Slaughter Lane SITE AREA: 0.7682 acres (33,462.79 square feet) PROPERTY OWNER / AGENT: Shokrollah Delaram CASE MANAGER: Wendy Rhoades (512-974-7719, wendy.rhoades@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant neighborhood commercial – mixed use – conditional overlay (LR-MU-CO) combining district zoning. The Conditional Overlay would be modified to remove three uses from the prohibited use list in Ordinance No. 20140807-156 as shown in Exhibit B: consumer repair services, guidance services, and pet services. The basis of Staff’s recommendation is provided on pages 2 - 3. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: May 17, 2022: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: June 16, 2022: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: Correspondence received from a customer of the existing pet services business as well as adjacent residents are attached at the back of the Staff report. The existing pet services and indoor sports and recreation uses are not allowed by the existing LR-MU-CO zoning and have resulted in active Code violation on the property. A rezoning application was filed on February 26, 2022 as a first step in addressing the Code violation. The Applicant has indicated that he is partially in agreement with the Staff recommendation. That is, he is agreeable to the Staff recommendation that would allow for consumer repair services, guidance services, and pet services, but indicates he would like to continue the indoor sports and recreation use until a different location can be found. Please refer to Exhibit C (Notice of Code Violation). 1 of 32B-7 C14-2022-0020 Page 2 CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject rezoning area consists of one platted lot and a portion of another and has access to West Slaughter Lane and Allred Drive. The lot fronting Slaughter Lane and the north 45 feet of the adjoining lot are zoned neighborhood commercial – mixed use – conditional overlay (LR-MU-CO) district by a 2014 rezoning case. The 2,060 square foot single family residential structure was originally constructed on the common lot line, hence the need in 2009 and 2014 to rezone a portion of the adjoining lot to the south. The Conditional Overlay allows for personal services, personal improvement services, general retail sales (convenience), and other neighborhood office (NO) zoning district uses and development regulations (C14-2014-0187). Access is taken by way of a circular driveway to West Slaughter Lane. The remainder of …

The Value of Solar is the rate at which Austin Energy credits solar customers for the energy produced at their homes and businesses. How Does it Work? • A solar meter measures the amount of energy that the solar system generates • Austin Energy multiples the monthly generation by the Value of Solar rate and issues a bill credit • Extra bill credits roll over to the next bill • Solar credits only apply to the electric portion of the bill 2 Value of Solar: A New Approach Why does Austin Energy need to review the Value of Solar now? • To fulfill previous base rate review commitments • To update the rate components • To better align solar production value with appropriate funding sources. 3 Explaining Value of Solar Customer Categories Value of Solar Customer Category Details Solar Capacity Examples Customer Type 1.
