ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET TO: CS-1 DISTRICT: 7 CASE: C14-2021-0024 (Tech Ridge Liquor Store) ZONING FROM: GR ADDRESS: 12401 Tech Ridge Boulevard SITE AREA: 1,625 sq. ft. PROPERTY OWNER: Factor Real Estate LLC (Alvin Morin) AGENT: Permit Solutions LLC (Jennifer Smith) CASE MANAGER: Sherri Sirwaitis (512-974-3057, sherri.sirwaitis@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends CS-1, Commercial-Liquor Sales District, zoning. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: April 20, 2021 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 24B-6 C14-2021-0024 ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: 2 The property in question is a 0.037 acre vacant parcel of land l ocated at the southeast corner of Tech Ridge Boulevard and East Yager Lane. Surrounding land uses includes undeveloped land directly to the north and an industrial/office campus to the northeast (Dell Parmer South Campus), across Tech Ridge Boulevard. To the south, there is a developing hotel/ motel use and multifamily complex (Atrium at Tech Ridge). The lot to the east contains a hotel/motel use (Townplace Suites). The tract of land to the west is undeveloped. The applicant is requesting a 1,625 sq. ft. fo otprint of CS-1 zoning to develop a liquor store. The property is part of a larger site with an approved site plan for a gas station/convenience store, drive in/fast food restaurant (see SP-2 018-0086C – Exhibit C). BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. Commercial-Liquor Sales district is intended predominately for commercial and industrial activities of a service nature which typically have operating characteristics or traffic service requirements generally incompatible with residential environments, and specifically includes liquor sales as a permitted use. 2. The proposed zoning should allow for a reasonable use of the property. The CS-1 zoning district would allow for a fair and reasonable use of the site. A 1,625 sq. ft. footprint of CS-1 zoning is appropriate at this location as it will be part of a larger retail/restaurant development at the corner of a major intersection. It is consistent with surrounding land uses because of the commercial character of the area. The proposed rezoning will allow for additional retail uses to provide services to the industrial campus to the northeast and to the multifamily use to the south. 3. Zoning should promote the policy of locating retail and more intensive zoning near the intersections of arterial roadways or at the intersections of arterials and major collectors. This …
