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.

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.

As Board President of the Texas Music Museum, located in the Marvin Griffin Building at 1009 E. 11th Street, I want to express our full support for the proposed affordable housing project across the street on Block 16 and the Arts and Music Cultural Center on block 18. The Texas Music Museum has been operating for 42 years, researching, archiving, collecting, and presenting detailed exhibits and programs that preserve and honor the legacy of amazing African American musicians from East Austin. Our mission is deeply rooted in preserving East Austin’s history and culture through community-centered projects that help reduce displacement and gentrification. We are hopeful that this project will bring more housing options for our community, including many East Austin musicians who would likely qualify for affordable units. We also support the inclusion of housing for Huston-Tillotson University students. The Texas Music Museum works closely with Huston-Tillotson, hiring archival interns and docents from this important institution who provide exceptional museum tours for visitors from all over the world , across Texas and the US. We would be pleased to see affordable housing on E 11th St. that further strengthens this anchor of the African American Cultural Heritage District Corridor.
