PROPERTY OWNER: 1716 San Antonio Property, LLC AGENT: Husch Blackwell, LLP (Nikelle Meade) CASE MANAGER: Cynthia Hadri 512-974-7620, Cynthia.hadri@austintexas.gov STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The staff recommendation is to recommend downtown mixed use – conditional overlay (DMU-CO) combined zoning district. The conditional overlay will limit the height on the property to a maximum of 60 feet. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: December 16, 2025: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: N/A 04 C14-2025-0097 - 1716 San Antonio St Rezoning; District 91 of 19 C14-2025-0097 2 CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is approximately 0.13 acres, is developed with one building, has access to West 18th Street (level 1) and San Antonio Street (level 1), and is currently zoned general office (GO) zoning district.

The Travis County Courthouse is to the east and is zoned public (P). Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and B (Aerial View). The staff is recommending the downtown mixed use – conditional overlay (DMU-CO) combined zoning district as requested by the applicant. The proposed zoning is compatible and consistent with surrounding land uses and zoning patterns in this area as there is existing DMU zonings to the south, east and west.
