Pritchard) CASE MANAGER: Sherri Sirwaitis (512-974-3057, sherri.sirwaitis@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMEDATION: Staff recommends DMU-CO, Downtown Mixed Use-Conditional Overlay Combining District, zoning. The conditional overlay will limit the height on the property to a maximum of 60 feet. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: July 12, 2022 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: B-81 of 15 C14-2022-0055 ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: 2 The two lots under consideration are developed with single family residential homes. There are Personal Services (West End Salon and Crimson Hair Salon) to the north and west. The lots to the east are developed with office uses. To the south, there is an office use and a residence. The applicant is requesting DMU zoning to redevelop these lots with office uses. The property is located within the Northwest District in the Downtown Area Plan. The Downtown Area Plan calls for DMU 60 for these tracts (please see attached Exhibit D- Downtown Austin Plan Exhibits). The staff recommends DMU-CO, Downtown Mixed Use-Conditional Overlay Combining district, zoning. The proposed zoning is compatible and consistent with surrounding land uses and zoning patterns in this area and with the recommendations of the Downtown Area Plan. The applicant agrees with the staff’s recommendation. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. Downtown Mixed Use district is intended for areas on the periphery of CBD classifications in the central core area, permitting a variety of uses compatible with downtown Austin and allowing intermediate densities as a transition from the commercial core to surrounding districts. Site development regulations are intended to permit combinations of office, retail, commercial, and residential uses within a single development. 2. The proposed zoning should promote consistency and orderly planning. The proposed DMU zoning would be consistent with the DMU-CO zoning located to the north of this site.

PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: July 12, 2022: June 14, 2022: APPROVED A POSTPONEMENT REQUEST BY THE NEIGHBORHOOD TO JULY 12, 2022. [C. HEMPEL; J. SHIEH – 2ND] VOTE: 10-0, COMMISSIONERS HOWARD, MUSHTALER, AND THOMPSON – ABSENT CITY COUNCIL ACTION: July 28, 2022: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: The Applicant has discussed this case with representatives of the Old West Austin Neighborhood Association (OWANA) Zoning Committee. Correspondence from the OWANA Zoning Committee is attached at the back of this report. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject platted lot is located at the north corner of Highland Avenue and the unbuilt Bellemont Street, and within the Smoot / Terrace Park Historic District. The subject lot is zoned multifamily residence – moderate-high density – historic area – neighborhood plan (MF-4-HD-NP) combining district zoning, and contains one single family residence on the south side and an undeveloped area on the north side. There is a single family residence and 1 of 15B-10 C14-2022-0047 Page 2 a triplex to the north, and single family residences to the east, south and west (MF-4-HD-NP; MF-4-H-HD-NP; SF-3-HD-NP; SF-3-H-HD-NP). Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and A-1 (Aerial Exhibit). The Applicant has requested the single family residence-small lot – historic area – neighborhood plan (SF-4A-HD-NP) district in order to facilitate a resubdivision of the lot and build a single family residence on the north side of the rezoning area on a new lot. Changes are not proposed to the existing single family residence. The existing lot does not meet the minimum size required for a resubdivision to occur under the family residence (SF- 3) base zoning district (11,500 square feet would be needed), hence the need for the SF-4A base zoning district which has a minimum lot size of 3,600 square feet.

C20-2022-002 ORDINANCE AMENDMENT REVIEW SHEET Amendment: C20-2022-002 Commercial Parkland Dedication Description: Consider an amendment to Title 25-1 of the City Code to require parkland dedication for commercial developments. Proposed Language: See attached draft ordinance. Summary of proposed code amendment • Parkland dedication would apply to new commercial developments, specifically office, retail, industrial/warehouse, and hotel uses. This would be in addition to the existing residential requirements currently in effect. The commercial requirement would use the current formula of 9.4 acres of parkland per 1,000 new users of the parks system. The commercial uses would be calculated based on the number of employees per square foot, discounted by hours of operation, occupancy rate, and commuter percentage rates. Criteria for dedication and fee in-lieu would remain the same as for residential developments. • • Background: Initiated by City Council Resolution 20220407-042 On April 7, 2022, Council approved resolution No. 20220407-042, which initiated code amendments to the Parkland Dedication Ordinance in City Code Chapter 25- I (General Requirements and Procedures) to require parkland dedication for office, industrial, and commercial developments; and directed the City Manager to place the code amendment on an upcoming Council agenda that provides Council with sufficient time to adopt the ordinance and place the fee into the Fiscal Year 2023 budget; a 10-0 vote with Council Member Harper-Madison off the dais. Staff Recommendation: Staff brings forward the amendment with recommendation. Board and Commission Actions July 12, 2022: To be reviewed by the Planning Commission.
