Lamar - District 5. City of Austin Planning Commission, Thank you for postponing this hearing, allowing us to meet with the applicant to discuss and clarify the major issues listed in our letter of opposition in May. I am here to report on the results of our meeting with the applicant last Friday. Last night the Executive Committee of the Zilker Neighborhood Association voted to continue ZNA’s support of the redevelopment of these parcels on South Lamar under the existing VMU zoning, and to support the extension of the VMU overlay to Tract 1 at 2700 S. Lamar if the owner requests it. This decision was based on information extracted from the applicant on Friday. The ZNA zoning committee has calculated that the existing zoning, with VMU extended to Tract 1, could result in 483 residential units on 86% impervious cover. With MF6 zoning, the owner proposes to build 480 units in 8 floors and 80% impervious cover. The increased entitlements of MF6 would actually allow 686 units, but this is probably reduced by compatibility setbacks for height. The concept plan presented by the owner would likely contain only 463 units, if one assumes that most of the ground floor would be taken up by parking. Subchapter E includes standards and incentives explicitly for the development of Vertical Mixed Use (VMU) buildings. Subchapter E, Article 4 states: "The mixed use provisions define the uses of land and the siting and character of the improvements …

The property has been in a horrible state of disrepair for many years, and we are excited for the proposed improvements. We support Mr. Soto’s plan to provide a small Mexican restaurant on the ground floor next to Pedernales (especially since the property has historically had a mix of commercial and residential uses), along with several multi-family residential units above. Also, please do not impose a conditional use permit requirement on a restaurant use, since doing so would cause unnecessary expenses and delays by forcing Mr. Soto to go back to the …

PC June 8, 2021 Q & A Report Item B-13 (E) Commissioner Schneider Questions / Staff Response I’d like to get a better understanding of the redevelopment exception under SOS, since a significant portion of the site is in the Barton Springs Zone. Have there been previous cases in the Barton Springs zone where an applicant claimed a redevelopment exception? Yes – these are not unusual. What sort of detention, if any, was required for those sites? Please see below for the rest of these questions. How much impervious cover was allowed? On this project, what sort of detention ponds might be required? Is that determined, in part, but the number of units, the number of vehicle trips, or other requirements? The governing code is LDC 25-8-26. The questions above are answered in sections E and F which are copied below, with a few modifications to make it more understandable. For the complete text please see the link. 1) The redevelopment may not increase the existing amount of impervious cover on the site. 2) The redevelopment may not increase non-compliance, if any, with Critical Water Quality Zone Restrictions, Critical Environmental Features, Wetland Protection, or Section 25-8-482 Water Quality Transition Zone in the Barton Springs Zone. 3) The redevelopment must provide an Environmental Resource Inventory and comply with current code for all construction phase environmental requirements, including erosion and sedimentation controls. 4) The water quality controls on the redevelopment site must provide a level of water quality treatment that is equal to or greater than that which was previously provided. 5) For a commercial or multifamily redevelopment, the owner or operator must obtain a permit under Section 25-8-233 (Barton Springs Zone Operating Permit) for both sedimentation/filtration ponds and SOS ponds. [This is standard Barton Springs Zone operating permit, required for all sites in the BSZ.] 6) For a site with more than 40 percent net site area impervious cover, the redevelopment must have: a. sedimentation/filtration ponds for the entire site; or b. SOS ponds for a portion of the site, and sedimentation/filtration ponds for the remainder of the redeveloped site. 7) For a site with 40 percent or less net site area impervious cover, the redevelopment must have SOS ponds for the entire site. 8) The property owner must mitigate the effects of the redevelopment, if required by and in accordance with Subsection (H).

June 8, 2021 COA Community Development Commission (CDC) Funding Rapid Re-Housing (RRH) & Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) I. II. III. Rapid Re-Housing (RRH) 1 provides short-term rental assistance and services, typically for up to 12-24 months. The goals are to help people obtain housing quickly, increase self-sufficiency, and maintain stable housing. Guided by the Housing First philosophy, RRH is offered without preconditions (such as employment, income, or sobriety) and the resources and services provided are tailored to the needs of the person. Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) 2 is an intervention that combines affordable housing assistance with voluntary support services to address the needs of chronically homeless people. RRH and PSH are funded through a number of avenues: A. City of Austin’s Housing & Planning Department (HPD) and the Austin Public Health Department (APD) 1. HPD uses federal and local funds and general obligation bonds towards supporting the construction of PSH. Additionally, APH allocates federal and local funding towards homelessness prevention/diversion and social services provided by community service providers. B. Housing Vouchers (provided through local Housing Authorities): 1. Tenant Based Rental Assistance (TBRA) 3 - housing subsidy that moves with the tenant from rental property to rental property, reducing the amount of rent a tenant has to pay based on their household income and local rent limits. These vouchers are no or low barrier because they fund the individual. 2. Project Based Rental Assistance (PBRA) 4 - housing subsidy provided through housing assistance payments (HAP) contracts with the owner(s) of multifamily rental housing. The subsidy makes up the difference between what a household can afford and the HUD approved rent for the rental unit. These vouchers are somewhat barrier restricted, based on the landlord of the project but staff is ongoingly working to incentivize no/low barrier applicant acceptance. C. Continuum of Care Grant: ($700K) - the main applicant and receiver is ECHO and this funding serves 30-50 people plus administration costs. It is used for providing social services and rental assistance. D. Best Single Source Plus Program (BSS+) 5 - provides comprehensive case management and direct financial assistance to eligible individuals and families in the Austin/Travis County area. E. (Local) Municipal Vouchers: Approved by Austin City Council in late 2020, this new funding source will provide PBRA to local PSH developments. F. HOME Grant ($3.1 Million): In addition to providing tenant based rental assistance (see B:1) funds housing rehabilitation, as well …

June 8, 2021 Memorandum for Community Development Commission Chair Amit Motwani and Members (BC-Amit.Motwani@austintexas.gov) Subject: Title Transit Disparate Impacts—Community Services Block Grant VI Affordable Housing Impediments (Possible Action) 1. Disparate Impact: $7.1B Project Connect, contingent on 45% Federal funding, will segregate Austin for centuries. North of US 183 rail is 24-30 years, yet Capital Metropolitan Transportation Authority/Austin City Council promoted “equity” propaganda. During the 87th Texas Legislature, HB 3893 (Hinojosa) died on “intent calendar.” Republican Senators understood that Capital Metro’s discriminatory Cap Remap violated Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 which “prohibits discrimination based on race, color, or national origin” (FTA, 2012) and would have jeopardized Texas’ Federal funding had the Downtown tunnel bill passed. Federal Register: Submit Formal Comment to Federal Transit Administration. This will help determine if Capital Metro gets Federal funding.

Target Audience: False ad, “Project Connect is a transit plan with more ways to move us all.” Voters were never told they would be subsidizing a system for white commuters from the suburbs. Instead, false ballot language noted “essential workers.” December 14, 2015-March 13, 2016 - about 5,000 surveys (partial results below): 72% white, 52% female (25-35), majority had access to two vehicles, earned $100K, and 94% had some college (≈27% graduate degree). Capital Metro then created its new bus network saying “the people” wanted to walk ½-mile to a frequent bus. November 16, 2016 I testified against disparate impacts. October 24, 2017 Chair Wade Cooper relied on AURA urbanists, third party data not publicly available, asserting minorities [Southeast Hispanics, not Northeast Blacks] had access to the 15-minute network, ignoring safety: more transfers north of US 183 on roadways over 30K vehicles per day (“vpd”) due to unilateral northeast-west eliminations, walk to main corridor from home, wait at neighborhood stops, and transfer time. Blacks wait twice as long as Cooper’s #30-Walsh Tarlton whites outside the service area. Cooking the Books! 2015-16: Capital Metro surveyed 72% whites.
