TO: M E M O R A N D U M Mayor and Council Chairs of the following Boards, Commissions, and Committees: Zoning and Platting Commission; Planning Commission; Historic Landmark Commission; Board of Adjustment; Environmental Commission; Sign Review Board; Building and Standards Commission; Building and Fire Code Board of Appeals; Code and Ordinances Joint Committee; Design Commission; Electric Board; Mechanical and Plumbing Board; Small Area Planning Joint Committee; Waterfront Planning Advisory Board; and the Urban Forestry Board October 19, 2021 Change of location for land use related Commissions Denise Lucas, Development Services Department Director Rosie Truelove, Housing and Planning Department Director FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: On June 29, 2021, a memo was distributed regarding the opening of the Permitting and Development Center. As indicated within the memo, the PDC brings together resources and expertise from multiple City departments which provide permitting and development services for our community. The new facility is designed to provide a seamless development process, all in one place, for residential and commercial customers and special events permitting. All pertinent department representatives will be co-located at the PDC. As a next step for utilizing the PDC, liaisons to each respective board, commission, and committee will be asked to assist with coordinating the relocation of meetings to the PDC Conference Center, which is a key asset included in the approved design of the PDC. Coordination will include working with each board, commission, and committee to walk through the facility, identify and collaborate to solve for major concerns, and to develop and implement communications plans leading up to and through changes in meeting locations. The Conference Center is 5,000 square feet, will be equipped to televise meetings through ATXN by late February 2022, has sufficient room for 351-person occupancy and the capacity to be separated into small rooms, and has a 969-parking space garage connected to the PDC. Changes in meeting locations will not occur prior to February 2022. Rather, there will be initial discussions and opportunities to visit the PDC so that each respective board, commission, and committee has an opportunity to learn more about the PDC. This change will reduce the reliance on the City Hall Council Chambers and Boards and Commissions Room and reinforces the concept of the PDC serving as the City’s one-stop shop for all development and permitting related needs, which was a key recommendation in the 2015 Zucker Analysis. As with all public meetings, …
Zoning and Platting Commission Resolution to Continue to Meet at City Hall Whereas, City Hall is a well-known and accessible landmark that is centrally located; Whereas, since the opening of City Hall it has hosted the meetings of the Zoning and Platting Commission; Whereas, City management has decided to move the meetings of the Zoning and Platting Commission, the Planning Commission and the Board of Adjustment to the City of Austin Permitting and Development Center (PDC) at Highland Mall without informing the commission or the public; Whereas, moving the Zoning and Platting Commission public hearings to the PDC places an undue burden on the public, the staff and the commissioners; Whereas, public hearings on zoning and land use cases by the Zoning and Platting Commission and the City Council should be in the same location to avoid confusing the public and the need for multiple notices, especially since members of the public may be unfamiliar with the locations; Whereas, signage is lacking, with only small signs on the glass doors facing Wilhelmina Delco Drive, the PDC’s official address, making it easy for participants to miss, yet the public entrance is on Thomas Hatfield Way; Whereas, seven high-frequency bus routes serve City Hall including two MetroRapids, yet only two high-frequency bus routes – the 7 and the 337 – and the Red Line serve the PDC, and the bus stops are closer to City Hall than they are to the PDC; Whereas, the safety and security of participants is paramount and City Hall has metal detectors, security immediately outside the chamber and secure parking; Whereas, Highland Mall is a construction zone so pedestrians and transit riders will have to walk past empty lots at night including a vacated lot used for surface parking across the street from the PDC, while City Hall is in the middle of an active, walkable downtown; Whereas, City Hall has a dais, computers on the dais, work tables for staff and comfortable, permanent chairs for the public while the PDC facility at Highland Mall is a multi-purpose room; Whereas, there is no reason operationally to move the Zoning and Platting Commission meetings to the PDC because support staff does not work at that location; Now, therefore, be it resolved: The City of Austin’s Zoning and Platting Commission should continue to meet at City Hall.

By the way, the Bryker Woods Neighborhood Association did not receive notification of this variance hearing from the City, rather we received it second hand from another neighborhood association. Thank you, Joyce Basciano Bryker Woods Neighborhood Association Dear Chair Cohen and Members of the Board of Adjustment, Re: C15‐2021‐0056 3006 Glenview Avenue Agenda Item D‐2 The Bryker Woods Neighborhood Association (BWNA) Board of Directors considered this variance request. In the case of through lots we are guided by the precedent set by the Board of Adjustment on Monday, September 8, 2014 in Case Number C15‐2014‐0115 (see attachment). That case involved another through lot on Glenview Avenue that backed up to Jefferson St. (3200 Glenview, cited in the backup for 3006 Glenview). The 2014 BOA Decision granted a variance decreasing the 25 ft setback to 10 ft from the property line, not 5 ft. A 10 ft rear lot setback is still reasonable for through lots on Glenview Avenue and is in keeping with the historic character of Jefferson St. Accordingly, we support a decrease of the 25 ft setback to 10 ft but oppose a decrease of the setback to 5 ft.

Additional Variance Request: LDC 25-2 Subchapter F 3.3.2.A.1 allowing for a 450sf FAR exemption less than 10 feet from primary residence 3006 Glenview Avenue Variance Request (LDC 25-2-515 Re: Rear Yard of a Through Lot) E-1/1-PRESENTATION History & Background Details The current home was constructed in 2015 with surface parking in the rear. The subject property is located on Glenview Avenue in Brykerwoods. This street is unusual, in that homes on the east side of the street have curb cuts and driveway access from the front of the homes, while all homes on the west side of the street do not. Homes have historically treated Jefferson Avenue as an alley and all off-street parking for these homes on the west side of Glenview access their parking via rear entry. E-1/2-PRESENTATION A side-by-side comparison of the previous and current survey shows that a non-complaint garage structure was removed in order to make room for two off-street parking spaces as required by city code. E-1/3-PRESENTATION Following the July BOA meeting, adjustments were made to the proposed garage structure which would require partial demolition of the existing parking pad. The result places the garage 5’ farther from Jefferson Ave. E-1/4-PRESENTATION E-1/5-PRESENTATION In response to the changes made to the site plan, the Bryker Woods Neighborhood Association has withdrawn it’s opposition to the variance request. E-1/6-PRESENTATION Aerial views by Google Maps show driveways along Jefferson Avenue with varying distances from the ROW. Some have been updated and some have not (photos to follow). Most range from 19’ to 23’ from the asphalt. *Plot plan revisions for 3006 Glenview Avenue place the proposed garage at 21’8” from asphalt at Jefferson Ave, consistent with others along the corridor. E-1/7-PRESENTATION E-1/8-PRESENTATION E-1/9-PRESENTATION A variance was granted for a neighbor’s property at 3200 Glenview Avenue in 2014 and a garage and studio apartment were built.
