Site access from Dessau Road is aligned with Childress Drive that goes west from Dessau Rd. The rezoning tract is 3.2 acres (139,392 sq. ft) of land. Applicant requests community commercial (GR) district zoning which permits religious assembly (church) uses. The site is in the Walnut Creek Watershed. Commercial zoning in this Suburban watershed is allowed a maximum of 80% impervious cover. Religious Assembly (church) use is permitted in most zone districts. The applicant in this case requested community commercial (GR) district zoning to obtain development regulations that permit 80% impervious coverage. With the proposed conditional overlay, staff believes that the requested GR zoning will be compatible with future development of the multifamily residence moderate high density (MF-4) district zoning on adjoining land to the north. The MF-4 district, and all multifamily residence districts in this watershed permit a maximum of 60% impervious coverage. There are three existing churches on the east side of Dessau Rd. between Childress Dr. and Rundberg Ln. The subject 3.2 acre rezoning tract is part of a 16.602 acre tract of land zoned interim – rural residence (I-RR) when annexed in 2003.

PROPERTY OWNER: Gyro Plus LLC (Mohammed Arami) CASE MANAGER: Sherri Sirwaitis (512-974-3057, sherri.sirwaitis@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMEDATION: Staff recommends GR-MU, Community Commercial-Mixed Use Combining District, zoning for Tract 1 and LO-MU, Limited Office- Mixed Use Combining District, zoning for Tract 2. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: September 7, 2021 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 12B-10 C14-2021-0109 ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: 2 The property in question is a 1.41 acre site that contains a vacant retail building and a small warehouse (formerly Buck’s Bikes Super Store) which fronts U.S. Highway 183 North. To the east, there is a retail center (Oak Knoll Village). The tract of land to the west contains an automotive repair use (Oak Knoll Automotive). The lots to the south, across Jollyville Road, are developed with duplex residences. The applicant is requesting GR-MU zoning to redevelop the site with retail mixed use. The staff is recommending GR-MU zoning for Tract 1 and LO-MU zoning for Tract 2. GR- MU zoning on Tract 1 will permit the applicant to redevelop the site with retail and residential uses fronting Research Boulevard/U.S. Highway 183 North. The staff is recommending adding an ‘MU’ combining district to the entire property (both Tract 1 and Tract 2) to permit the addition of residential uses. The proposed zoning will promote consistency with the permitted uses developed adjacent to this tract in the existing Community Commercial zoning located to the east and west. Commercial-mixed use and office-mixed use zoning will permit the applicant to utilize vacant structures to allow for mixed use development on the site. More intensive zoning is appropriate for a retail development fronting a major highway within an area of concentrated commercial and retail development. In addition, the staff is recommending a 120-foot buffer of LO-MU zoning along Jollyville Road for Tract 2 in accordance with the intent of the U.S. 183/Jollyville Road Area Study. The policy of a 120-foot strip buffer of LO zoning along the east side of Jollyville Road has been consistently applied to date to maintain a setback from the commercial uses fronting U.S. Highway 183 to the residential and office uses to the west across Jollyville Road.

From: To: Cc: Subject: Date: slskoglund Sirwaitis, Sherri sls C14-2021-0091 Friday, September 3, 2021 8:25:38 AM *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Thank you for taking the time to explain the process the other day. Regarding the above-referenced case, as a resident of Coppertree Condos I qualify as an interested party. As an interested party the following concerns for the health and safety of the current population: 1. the traffic - already the traffic is increased due to the IDEA school. With the addition of this complex the traffic will increase thereby affecting Yager Lane current traffic pattern. 2. the noise - currently this area is considered one of the quieter areas in Austin making it a very desirable area to live. 3. decreased property values - over crowding 4. crime - currently Coppertree experiences many car break-ins and minor crimes. with an increased population targeting lower income the probability of increased crime is almost certain. 5. feral cats and dogs - with the increase with an increased population 6. trash - more people, more trash. Thank you for allowing this opportunity to voice concerns. Currently this is a desirable area to live and the quality of life is safe and comfortable. Please take this into consideration before allowing this project to proceed. CAUTION: This email was received at the City of Austin, from an EXTERNAL source.

ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET DISTRICT: 2 AGENT: Hector Avila CASE: C14-2021-0120 – Rezoning Liquor Store TO: CS-1 ZONING FROM: GR-CO ADDRESS: 3131 East SH 71 Service Road Westbound, Suite 200 SITE AREA: 0.023 acres (1,000 square feet) APPLICANT: 3131 East 71 LLC (Najib F. Wehbe) CASE MANAGER: Wendy Rhoades (512-974-7719, wendy.rhoades@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant commercial - liquor sales – conditional overlay (CS-1-CO) combining district zoning. The Conditional Overlay prohibits automotive repair services, automotive washing (of any type), and pawn shop services. For a summary of the basis of Staff’s recommendation, see page 2. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: September 1, 2021: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: October 14, 2021: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: The Applicant is in agreement with the Staff recommendation. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject rezoning area is a 1,000 square foot unoccupied lease space at the east end of a recently constructed commercial development that contains a service station and a food sales use, and is located on the East SH 71 westbound service road at its intersections with Cheviot Lane and Royster Avenue. The property was annexed into the City in September 2001 and zoned community commercial – conditional overlay (GR-CO) district by a 2008 case. The Conditional Overlay limited development to 2,000 vehicle trips per day, and prohibits automotive repair services, automotive washing, and pawn shop services. In 2018, the property was rezoned to remove the Conditional Overlay that established a 2,000 vehicle trip limit, and the list of prohibited uses remains intact. C14-2021-0120 Page 2 The property is located just outside of the Airport Overlay Zone-3 district, also known as the ½ mile buffer. There are residential uses to the north and east (I-SF-2; LO-MU); and commercial uses, including a concrete pad for a former restaurant (limited) and auto-related uses to the west (GR; GR-CO; CS-CO). Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and A-1 (Aerial View). The Applicant proposes commercial – liquor sales (CS-1) district zoning in order to occupy the lease space with a liquor sales use. The approved site plan shows driveways to East SH 71 service road, Royster Avenue and Cheviot Lane. BASIS FOR RECOMMENDATION 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. The commercial – liquor sales (CS-1) zoning district is intended for commercial and industrial activities of a service nature which typically have operating characteristics or traffic …
