MEMORANDUM TO: Members of the Planning Commission FROM: Jerry Rusthoven, Assistant Director/Interim Lead Planning and Zoning Department DATE: May 22, 2020 SUBJECT: UNO Sign Regulations The Planning and Zoning Department is requesting the Commission initiate an amendment to the UNO ordinance to correct an inadvertent change made to the sign regulations in the ordinance. In November 2019 the City Council approved changes to the UNO ordinance. One of those changes was intended to address signs above the second story of a building. Those signs were required to be cut in or engraved into the structure of the building. If the name of a building were placed on the facade this made it physically difficult to change the name in the future. It was agreed by the stakeholders to remove this requirement. In making this change to the ordinance a mistake was made and the result is all illuminated signs were prohibited in the UNO area. This is not what was intended or agreed to by the stakeholders. Also, because the UNO sign regulations are also used in TODs and the North Burnet/Gateway Plan this mistake carries over to other areas. Staff is asking for the opportunity to correct the ordinance. We will be working with the same stakeholders involved in the November revisions. If you need additional information, please contact me by email or 512-974-3207. Cc: Andy Linseisen, Assistant Director, DSD

May 26, 2020 Item C.1 Request to Rescind Prior Planning Commission Action on Simon-Caskey Preliminary Plan Commissioners James Shieh and Patricia Seeger are requesting that the Commission rescind and reconsider the Simon-Caskey preliminary plan that was approved by the Commission. We believe reconsideration of this item is warranted by several items of incomplete or inaccurate information available to the Commission at the prior hearing, as follows: Information about the Prior Item At the April 28th Planning Commission meeting, the Commission voted to approve the Simon- Caskey preliminary plan that was presented to us as Item 10, as follows: 10. Preliminary Plan: C8-2019-0114 - Simon-Caskey Tract Preliminary Plan; District 8 Location: 7715 West SH 71, Williamson Creek Watershed-Barton Springs Zone; West Oak Hill NP Area Owner/Applicant: Ridgelea Properties, Inc. (Adams Caskey) Agent: Bill E. Couch (Carlson, Brigance & Doering, Inc.) Request: Approval of Simon-Caskey Tract Preliminary Plan which will develop 16.664 acres of previously unplatted property by creating 26 lots for single-family, multi-family, commercial, ROW and parkland uses. Staff Rec.: Recommended Staff: Joey de la Garza, 512-974-2664, joey.delagarza@austintexas.gov Development Services Department The vote followed a public hearing in which the Commission had significant technical issues and difficulty with the public hearings. Following the April 28th action, several pieces of information were brought to the attention of the Commission which raised concern about the prior action and whether all of the information pertinent to the case and responsive to the questions raised by Commissioners at the hearing had been provided to the Commission and had been accurate and complete. As a result, at the May 12th Planning Commission meeting, a request to consider rescission of the April 28th action and reconsideration of the case was made by Commissioners Shieh and Seeger. Action on this request is item C.1. on this agenda. Planning Commission is authorized to rescind prior actions and reconsider said actions under the Commission’s Rules and Procedures. Rule 5.000 sets forth the procedures the Commission must follow to reconsider a prior action. The rule states: 5.000 REVISION OR AMENDMENT OF PREVIOUS ACTIONS 5.100 Upon the discovery of new information that was not previously presented to the Commission, the Commission may use its discretion to rescind or amend a previous action at the request of two or more Commissioners. Such a request must be made at the first meeting after the meeting where the Commission took the action sought to be …

Photo by City of Austin depicts former version of the Burnet Road plan. Thursday, May 21, 2020 by Ryan Thornton ROADS Ultimate vision for Burnet loses center-running dedicated transitways, gains two traffic lanes The Austin Transportation Department’s 2013 Corridor Development Program for Burnet Road envisions a future of cycle tracks, bus stop pullouts, shade trees, and for the roadway section between U.S. Highway 183 and MoPac Expressway, “two exclusive (bus rapid transit) lanes in the middle of the corridor.” Instead, the department is currently seeking environmental clearance on an unfunded plan to expand the 2.5-mile segment from a five-lane undivided roadway into a six-lane divided roadway, with two new general traffic lanes, a modified center turn lane and no center-running dedicated transitways. “Regarding center-running bus lanes, that was consistent with Capital Metro’s specific plans in 2013, but Project Connect has since taken a more system-wide approach,” Jessica Engelhardt, spokesperson with the Corridor Program Office, said over email Wednesday. “Following passage of the 2016 Mobility Bond, all of the corridor mobility plans were updated to reflect the latest plans and corridor conditions.” The expansion would require buying up 6.14 acres of right of way, but the 2016 mobility bond’s $482 million corridor program allocation does not contain the funds for the 25-foot right-of-way acquisition. The new travel lanes, among other modifications, will only be built if there is a new source of funding, such as another mobility bond. But the 2016 bond does allow for some critical improvements, like 9-foot accessible shared-use paths and landscaping buffers on either side of the road, that could be under construction by late 2022. Engelhardt said the goal is to go through an environmental review for the complete design up front (necessary since the road segment is owned by the Texas Department of Transportation), go through with the shared-use paths and other improvements using 2016 bond money, and be ready to repurpose that infrastructure if funding for the expansion is made available. Due to a combination of high traffic volume, frequency of driveways, an absence of bicycle lanes, and a lack of sidewalk connectivity, this stretch of Burnet Road has carved out its place in the city’s High Injury Network, a relatively small set of road segments on which almost 70 percent of all serious injury and fatal crashes take place. In a presentation on the corridor Wednesday, Lars Anderson, project manager with the city, …
