B-11 of 27 BASIS FOR STAFF’S RECOMMENDATION: Staff supports the applicant’s request for multifamily land use because it will add additional housing to the planning area and the city. Multifamily land use is appropriate for this location because there is multifamily land use to the north and east of the property. The proposed change would allow for additional residential units located near the North Lamar Boulevard Activity Corridor and the Crestview Station Town Center as identified on the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan. The Crestview Neighborhood Plan has objectives and recommendations that seek to protect existing single family uses and to also add housing types currently not available in the planning area for retirees and first time home buyers. The applicant’s proposal to build townhomes could help meet these goals. Land Use Objectives and Recommendations Land Use Objective 1: Preserve the character and affordability of the Crestview and Wooten Neighborhoods. Recommendations 1. Existing single-family residential areas should retain SF-3 zoning. Land Use Objective 5: Provide opportunities for the ultimate redevelopment of the Huntsman Petrochemical site to “complete” the neighborhood and create quality open space. Recommendations 1. Focus more intense commercial and mixed use development along Lamar Boulevard. a. Change the zoning for parcels fronting Lamar Boulevard to allow current uses to continue, but encourage redevelopment with more pedestrian-oriented mixed use. b. Prohibit or limit any additional development of incompatible industrial uses, such as basic industry and mining. c. Preserve the historic farmhouse located at 810 Banyon Street. 2. Encourage the development of residential uses on Morrow Street adjacent to the existing neighborhood. a. Morrow Street should be developed primarily with single family residential that complements the existing homes on the north side of the street. b. Other portions of the site …

The subject tract is on the north side of Morrow Street about 350 feet west of North Lamar Boulevard and about 700 feet east of Watson Street. The property is currently zoned family residence – neighborhood plan (SF-3-NP) which allows a single family or duplex unit on a minimum of 5,750 square feet; about 7.6 units to the acre. The platted SF-3 zoned lots along the north side of Morrow Street were each about a half-acre (21,780 sq. ft.) or the equivalent of about 3.8 times the minimum lot size for the SF-3 zone district. Many of the SF-3 lots on Morrow Street and Taulbee Lane (one block north) are developed with two or more dwellings or have been subdivided to the same effect. The subject tracts addressed as 902 and 904 Morrow Street have about 160 feet of Morrow Street frontage and 200 feet of lot depth. The requested MF-1 zoning requires 8,000 square feet for a lot and permits up to 6 units per lot. The proposed development density is for 17 units per acre. The west property line and 1/3rd of the north property line of the subject parcel are contiguous with SF-3-NP zoned land. 2/3rds of the north and all of the east property line of the …

ISSUES 1 of 17B-4 C14-05-0112(RCA2) 2 CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: This property is approximately 10.48 acres and currently developed with a mixed-use project containing multifamily residential and commercial uses. It was rezoned to ERC with the East Riverside Neighborhood Plan Rezoning Case in 2006 and is surrounded by other properties within the ERC. That rezoning case included a public Restrictive Covenant (RC Recording No. 2007039123) which was later amended in 2011 (RC Recording No. 2011186530), please see Exhibit B: Original Restrictive Covenants. The Applicant’s request is to modify the ownership requirement from the first RC to remove the requirement that a minimum of 45 residential units be for sale and to increase the maximum number of residential units allowed on the property from 450 units to 520 units from the amended RC. No other changes are proposed at this time. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the Applicant’s proposed changes to the Restrictive Covenants to allow for increased density and removal of ownership requirements. This is an existing mixed-use development. Currently the Applicant is proposing all new construction in an undeveloped area of the property with no increased entitlements other than the density. The Applicant is not proposing any changes to the existing Lady Bird Boardwalk Trail access. Allowing additional units for …

PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: June 28, 2020: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: To be determined ORDINANCE NUMBER: B-051 of 10 C14-2020-0062 2 ISSUES: No issues at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject property is located between Webberville Road and Tannehill Lane, approximately 500 feet north of Samuel Huston Avenue. The property is zoned SF-3-NP and is undeveloped. Immediately to the south is land zoned MF-3-NP and SF-3-NP. Both areas are developed with single family residential land uses. Immediately to the north is SF-3-NP that is developed with religious assembly land use. Across Webberville Road to the west is primarily property zoned SF-3-NP that is developed with single family land uses—the area also includes small areas of SF-4A-NP and SF-6-NP with higher density residential uses. Across Tannehill Lane to the east is property zoned MF-2-CO-NP that is developed with religious assembly land use. Please see Exhibits A and B—Zoning Map and Aerial Exhibit. A land use-only site plan (an “A” site plan) was filed for this site in 2006 to develop the site under the residential infill standards that were approved under the East MLK Combined Neighborhood Plan (EMLKNP) and is under City review for extension. Development under these regulations requires that at least 40% of any residential units be located on fee-simple single family lots; cottage lots may not be more than 20% of total single-family units. The infill tool has minimum requirements of 10% townhouse and multifamily as well. Maximums are also established for these categories and others. If the site is developed under this program, an engineered site plan (a “B” site plan) will be required, as well as subdivision of the single family lots, public roads, and other infrastructure. Please see Exhibit C- Residential Infill Requirements. Staff supports the requested SF-6-NP. The property has significant topographic constraints, with elevations ranging from 520 feet to 560 feet. The current SF-3-NP zoning and this topography makes it difficult to develop with consistently and reasonably sized buildable lots. Under SF-3-NP zoning, development …

Adjacent to the north is a tract zoned CS-V, to the east is South 1st Street and across South 1st Street are tracts zoned MF-3-NP and LR-CO-NP. Adjacent to the south is a tract zoned MF-3 and to the west is SF-3 zoning. This property is subject to an existing Ordinance (20070405-043) which limits the number of trips per day, caps development on the property to 40 feet and prohibits a set of uses. The applicant is requesting to remove the trip limitations and building height restriction but carry over the existing list of prohibited uses. Those uses include the following: Adult-oriented businesses Automotive rentals Automotive repair services Automotive sales Automotive washing (of any kind) BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: Bail bond services Commercial blood plasma center Convenience storage Pawn shop services Vehicle storage 1. Zoning changes should promote compatibility with adjacent and nearby uses. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. The applicant is requesting to rezone from CS-CO to CS-MU-V-CO. This property is in between CS-V and MF-3 zoned tracts. Allowing for a mix of uses on this site would help in transition between zoning districts. Additionally, this property is located on a Core Transit Corridor as defined by the current City Land Development Code. These corridors are roadways that have or will have …

CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: This property is approximately 0.89 acres in size and is currently developed with a single-family house. It is located on the west side of Valley View Road which is developed with a mixture of single family and multifamily residential, public and office zoning districts. Adjacent to the north and south are properties zoned LO and SF-3. Across Valley View Road to the east are properties zoned SF-3 and adjacent to the west is a property zoned LO, please see Exhibit A: Zoning Map and Exhibit B: Aerial Map for context. 1 of 9B-7 C14-2020-0076 2 BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. Zoning changes should promote compatibility with adjacent and nearby uses. The applicant is proposing to build townhomes on this property. Their amended request of SF-6 allows the owner to utilize the property as they originally intended and aids in the transition of zoning between the office zoning districts along Menchaca Road and single- family zoning districts on Valley View Road.

PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: August 25, 2020: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: Planned to be scheduled for September 17, 2020: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: None at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject property is a portion of a lot located on the northbound IH 35 frontage road just north of its intersection with US Highway 183, and contains a vacant commercial building. The western two-thirds of the property is zoned CH-CO-NP through a 1989 rezoning case; the Conditional Overlay limits development to administrative and business office uses, and building additions to a maximum of 35,000 square feet. The remainder of the property is zoned general commercial services – neighborhood plan (CS-NP). Immediately north of the property are TXDoT Austin District offices and a large maintenance facility. East of the tract is recently cleared land and Travis County Appraisal District offices (CS-NP). Please refer to Exhibits A and A-1 (Zoning Map) and (Aerial Exhibit). The Applicant is proposing to rezone the property to the CS-NP district to provide a consistent set of uses and regulations on the property and redevelop with retail sales uses. 1 of 10B-8 C14-2020-0072 Page 2 BASIS FOR RECOMMENDATION 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. The general commercial services (CS) district is intended predominantly for commercial and industrial activities of a service nature having operating characteristics or traffic service requirements generally incompatible with residential environments. The CS district is best suited for uses located at intersections of arterial roadways or arterials with collector status. The intention is to promote safe and efficient use of transportation facilities. The neighborhood plan (NP) district denotes a tract located within the boundaries of an adopted Neighborhood Plan. 2. Staff recommends CS-NP zoning for the property based on the following considerations: 1) access is taken to a major arterial roadway and 2) compatibility with the existing zoning pattern …
PLANNING COMMISSION SITE PLAN VARIANCE REQUEST REVIEW SHEET CASE NUMBER: SP-2019-0171C PLANNING COMMISSION HEARING DATE : 8/25/20 (512) 399-5365 (512) 637-7518 Phone: (512) 974-2711 Renee.Johns@austintexas.gov Goodwill Central Texas 1015 Norwood Park BLVD Austin, TX 78753 Dunaway | UDG 5707 Southwest Parkway, Bldg 2, Ste. 250 Austin, TX 78735 PROJECT NAME: Goodwill Store ADDRESS OF APPLICATION: 2411 Lake Austin Blvd. APPLICANT: AGENT: CASE MANAGER: Renee Johns PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT: The applicant is proposing to construct a Goodwill store that will be a general retail sales (convenience) use at 2411 Lake Austin Blvd. Associated improvements include underground parking, utilities and other associated improvements. DESCRIPTION OF VARIANCE: The applicant is requesting a variance from § 25-2-744(E) Waterfront Overlay University/Deep Eddy Subdistrict Regulations, which limits the impervious coverage of a site area not included in a primary or secondary waterfront overlay setback to 40% impervious coverage. The existing development is currently at 89% impervious coverage, and the proposed development would not increase the current impervious coverage on site. The Waterfront Overlay variance process requires the applicant to obtain recommendations from both the Small Area Planning Joint Committee and the Environmental Commission, before the Land Use Commission. These hearings have been scheduled for August 24th and August 19th respectively. 25-2-713- 25-2-721 SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the variance and the site plan as proposed. Before recommending the project for a variance, staff considered whether “the variance is the minimum required by the peculiarities of the tract” [LDC Section 25-2-713(B)(2)]. The peculiarities of the site include: • The site is a smaller infill site, less than .4 acres • Overall site area reduced further during site plan review process by ROW dedication requirements along Lake Austin Blvd. which reduced buildable area to .37 acres • The site is also limited by compatibility requirements triggered by the SF-3 zoning district located less than 50 feet to the west that limit the maximum height on site. The applicant has worked with staff and the proposed development currently exceeds drainage/water quality requirements by capturing offsite drainage, incorporates rain gardens on 1 of 6B-9 site, no surface parking, and provides end of trip facilities (showers, lockers, etc.). Additionally, the new development will remove a brownfield site in the Waterfront Overlay. TOWN LAKE CORRIDOR STUDY: Staff considered the Town Lake Corridor Study and the effect of this project. Staff determined there is no adverse impact of this project to the …

From: Jordan Smith [ Sent: Thursday, August 20, 2020 3:07 PM To: Meredith, Maureen <Maureen.Meredith@austintexas.gov> Subject: NPA-2019-0003.01 Ms. Meredith, I hope this finds you safe and well. Please find attached my comments regarding the above referenced request by David Chapel Missionary Baptist Church to amend the Chestnut Neighborhood plan. Also, I would like to clarify, just in case, that the areas on the map that are highlighted in yellow are the ones that I and other neighbors have repeatedly talked with David Chapel representatives about keeping as SF, or whatever version of SF might allow greater density of SF on those lots. The asterisk on the SE parking lot property makes it look as though it is just the bottom portion of that parcel that I and others would like to see kept as SF, but in fact it is the whole of that SE parking lot area — in other words, the entirety of the shaded block. And please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions you may have about what I have submitted — or if you need any clarification of the above! Thank you! Best, Jordan

P.O. Box 41232 Austin, TX 78704 To: City of Austin Planning Commission From: Galindo Elementary Neighborhood Association (GENA) Executive Committee Re: C14-2020-0067 - Opposition to Application for Rezoning 3504 S. 1st Street _____________________________________________________________________________________ Date: August 25, 2020 Introduction of GENA: The Galindo Neighborhood boundaries are Oltorf Street on the North, Ben White on the South, the Union Pacific Railway on the West and South First Street on the East. The purpose of the Association is to seek to improve the quality of life in the neighborhood in matters such as land use, traffic control, social functions, environmental protection, public services, and other matters of neighborhood concern. Membership in the Galindo Neighborhood Association (GENA) is open to anyone who resides within association boundaries and to residential property owners within those boundaries. The Proposed Zoning Change & the Re-Development of the Mercury Hall Site: Slate Real Estate Partners (“Slate”) have contracted with Merc Properties LTD (“Merc Properties”) to purchase 3504 S. 1st St., which is 0.842 acres of land adjacent to the well- known wedding and event venue, Mercury Hall—a true Austin staple. 3504 S. 1st is the subject of the requested zoning change. Notably, Slate has also contracted with Merc Properties to purchase the actual Mercury Hall site, which lies on 2.9377 acres of land. Slate has expressed their intent to build a 275-350 unit apartment complex with a 5-level parking garage with 300+ parking spots on these two adjacent tracts of land. There will be two entrance/exit locations—one on Cardinal Lane and one on South 1st St. 1 1 Slate has also contracted with Merc Properties to purchase a third tract of land that is across the street. Slate has expressed their intent to turn this property into a park to fulfill part of their City of Austin parkland obligation/requirements. Page 1 of 5 1 of 33 In order for Slate to build this massive apartment complex and parking garage covering both tracts of land, the current zoning at 3504 S. 1st must be changed from CS-CO to CS-MU-V-CO to allow for the redevelopment of the site as a mixed-use project. In addition, the conditional overlay that restricts the building height to 40 feet and limits the vehicle trips per day must also be lifted/removed. This proposed sale is targeted to close in the Summer of 2021. Slate estimates the proposed apartment complex development will take approximately 22 months to …
Planning Commissione Question and Answer Report B3 Plan Amendment: NPA-2019-0003.01 - David Chapel Missionary Baptist Church; District 1 Question Commissioner Hempel: Staff response in red. Why wasn’t the church property/structure included with the historic neighborhood application to the north that went through PC at the last meeting? Rogers Washington Holy Cross Historic District application did not include David Chapel because code requires historic districts to have contiguous boundaries. The chapel is kittycorner from the proposed district and does not share any parcel lines. Additionally, district boundaries are proposed by the community application team, which elected to not include the chapel and the additional properties along Chestnut or E. MLK that would be needed to satisfy the contiguous boundary requirement. Question Commissioner Shaw: Staff response in red. 1. Is 1805 Ferdinand St. a legal lot? This question was forwarded to Nikelle Meade for a response. 2. Why isn’t there a zoning change accompanying this FLUM change? This question was forwarded to Nikelle Meade for a response. 3. Why is staff supporting mixed use on lots on Ferdinand St. and Chestnut that are not within same block? It seems like allowing mixed use on lots that are not contiguous especially on lots that are not fronting corridor would be discouraged. Nikelle Meade will ask for a postponement to Sept. 8 PC hearing so she can work with surrounding property owners. Staff would like to provide an answer to this question at that time. 4. Chestnut NPCT stated that they were not aware of this item coming before PC and have not come to an agreeable solution with applicant. Shouldn't the NPCT have the opportunity to work with applicant? This case has been postponed on PC agendas since January 14, 2020. On or about August 6, 2020, Nikelle Meade told me she wanted to move forward with just the NPA case and that she would contact the Chestnut NPCT to let them know. The case was then postponed on August 11, 2020 PC to August 25 PC hearing date. On August 13th I emailed the Chestnut NPCT to ask if they would like to provide a recommendation for the case for the August 25th PC hearing. I’ve forwarded this question to Nikelle Meade and Micah King for their response as well.
