City Manager Spencer Cronk The City of Austin Planning Commission To: From: Subject: Date: June 22, 2021 Transmittal of FYs 2021-2023 Long-Range Capital Improvement Program Planning Memo of Recommendations The Planning Commission is pleased to transmit the FYs 21-23 Long-Range Capital Improvement Program Planning (LRCP) Memo of Recommendations. Transmittal of the recommendations to the City Manager allows the Planning Commission to meet its requirement under the Charter to submit a list of capital improvements to the City Manager which implement the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan Joint Committee of Planning Commission and Zoning and Platting Commission participated in development of this year’s LRCP recommendations and approved a memo for consideration by the Planning Commission. Long-Range Capital Improvement Planning (LRCP) is the process that examines CIP needs looking 10 years or more into the future. It is a lens for viewing CIP projects, which are typically granular in nature, within the scale of high-level policies identified in the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan and Strategic Direction 2023. The LRCP is part of a larger Capital Improvement Program planning cycle, a multi-year, continuous process of planning, funding, and implementation of capital improvements, that also includes the Five-Year CIP Plan and the annual Capital Budget. This LRCP FYs 21-23 cycle, the recommendations are organized by Strategic Direction outcomes. Additionally, a new website has been developed to present the data and information related to Long-Range CIP Planning. The website can be found here: https://imagineaustin.wixsite.com/lrcp Government that works for all and Safety • To have a comprehensive picture of existing infrastructure conditions and potential liabilities over time, prioritize a more complete inventory and assessment of existing assets. Implement a robust Asset Management approach and facilitate the creation of an internal asset management system (for example: Enterprise Asset Management - EAM) to further encourage coordination and cooperation across all departments and all infrastructures. • Prioritize investments related to safety and capital renewal. Maintenance and repair prevention need to be funded appropriately to minimize premature failures, unacceptable levels of service, and far more expensive replacement of assets. • Continue to explore innovative revenue sources and policies. Economic Opportunity and Affordability and Mobility • Prioritize maintenance of infrastructure that supports voter approved capital investments. • Prioritize future infrastructure investments that support affordable housing and mobility goals. 1 • • Health and Environment Integrate nature into the city by supporting, maintaining, and expanding parks and our urban trail …

Long-Range Capital Improvement Planning Housing and Planning Department www.austintexas.gov/department/ housing-planning INTRODUCTORY GUIDE PURPOSE OF THE LRCP Long-Range Capital Improvement Planning (LRCP) is the process that examines CIP needs looking 10 years or more into the future. It is a lens for viewing CIP projects, which are typically granular in nature, within the scale of high-level policies identified in the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan and Strategic Direction 2023. It is updated on a two-year cycle and contributes to the annual recommendations approved by Planning commission. COMPONENTS OF THE LRCP Planning for long-range CIP investments enjoins multiple sources of information. The major elements that inform the planning process are maintained by multiple city departments including Public Works and the Budget Office. The main components, and their oft-seen abbreviations, are summarized below. CIP - Capital Improvement Program The City of Austin regularly undertakes projects to improve public facilities and infrastructure assets for the benefit of its citizens. Projects include the construction of city facilities such as recreation centers and libraries as well as the reconstruction of streets, replacement of water/wastewater lines and provision of power for City of Austin residents. Collectively, these projects are referred to as the City of Austin CIP. CIA - Comprehensive Infrastructure Assessment The CIA identifies, inventories, and reports the conditions of the City’s infrastructure assets. The information is set up in a framework that enables departments to identify capital, maintenance, and operational needs to address infrastructure performance and maximize the lifespan of the City’s infrastructure assets. Lead Department: Public Works Department, Asset Management Office RNA - Rolling Needs Assessment Highlighted Projects The RNA is a collection of identified, highlighted capital projects of interest that demonstrates the breadth of City projects proposed within the next 10 years. The RNA includes a brief summary of departments’ CIP project identification, prioritization, and selection processes. Overall, the RNA includes 21 departments and over 200 highlighted capital projects. Lead Department: Financial Services, Budget Office SIA - Strategic Investment Analysis The SIA examines the highlighted projects identified in the RNA, their relationship to City policies, and how their geographic dispersion could have potentially differing impacts throughout Austin. The SIA is presented as a series of charts and interactive maps to provide a variety of frameworks that can be used to strategically inform project and policy recommendations. Lead Department: Housing and Planning Department, Inclusive Planning PLANNING COMMISSION'S ROLE IN THE LRCP By June 30th each …

CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: Applicant seeks zoning to build 330 residential units on the 4.3881 acre (191,145 sq. ft.) parcel of land at 7113 and 7115 Burnet Road.

RESTRICTIVE COVENANT TERMINATION REVIEW SHEET DISTRICT: 7 CASE: C14-72-032 (RCT) – 7113 Burnet EXISTING ZONING: LO-CO-NP ADDRESS: 7113, 7115 Burnet Road SITE AREA: 1.1166 acres (48,638 square feet) PROPERTY OWNER: CSW Cart, Inc., (Robert O’Farrell) AGENT: Armbrust & Brown PLLC (Michael J. Gaudini, Michael J. Whellan) CASE MANAGER: Mark Graham (512)-974-3574, mark.graham@austintexas.gov STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends granting a Termination of the Restrictive Covenant.

COX 2ND] (10-0) COMMISSIONERS CONNOLLY, FLORES, LLANES PULIDO - ABSENT May 11, 2021: APPROVED A POSTPONEMENT REQUEST BY THE NEIGHBORHOOD TO MAY 25, 2021, BY CONSENT [G. COX, A. AZHAR 2ND] (12-0) CHAIR SHAW - ABSENT CITY COUNCIL ACTION: To be scheduled RESTRICTIVE COVENANT TERMINATION RECORDING NUMBER: 1 of 12B-3 C14-72-032(RCT) 2 ISSUES There are three related land use cases: The Neighborhood Plan Amendment, case NPA-2021- 0017.01 to change the FLUM from Commercial to Multi-family residential land use; The Rezoning case C14-2021-0044 requesting MF-6-CO-NP zoning; and this case requesting termination of the Restrictive Covenant that established a 20 foot building setback on the LO- CO-NP zoned tract; CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject Restrictive Covenant is less restrictive than current compatibility standards in the Austin Land Development Code. At the time that the subject property zoning was changed from residential to office in 1973, Restrictive Covenants were used to provide an increased setback between the office and the houses on Hardy Circle. The City has since changed to using a conditional overlay (CO) to make development standards more restrictive through the zoning ordinance instead of Restrictive Covenants. Applicant is requesting the termination of the Restrictive Covenant which established a twenty- foot building setback from the north property line of the 48,638 square foot tract of land that was rezoned from residential to office in 1973 (Ordinance No. 73 0628-D). The Restrictive Covenant is recorded in volume 4674, page 2281 of the Deed Records of Travis County, Texas. Paragraph number 1. “No Building or any part thereof shall be located within twenty (20) feet of the north property line of said property”. Please refer to Exhibit “C”. Compatibility Standards in Article 10 (LDC 25-2-1063) apply to the subject site because it is located next to SF-3-NP zoning and the development site is bigger than 20,000 square feet. The minimum setback is 25 feet from …
