PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: April 27, 2021: April 13, 2021: To grant postponement to April 27, 2021 as requested by Neighborhood. (12-0) [Commissioner Thompson- 1st, Commissioner Hempel- 2nd; Commissioner Shieh- Absent] CITY COUNCIL ACTION: May 6, 2021: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 194B-1 C14-2020-0089 2 ISSUES: This rezoning request is distinct from requests submitted in January and February of 2020 (C14-2020-0003 and C14-2020-0014). The prospective developers involved in those requests withdrew their applications prior to public hearing because they decided not to pursue the purchase of the property because the site did not meet their development needs. The current rezoning request previously included two tracts, requesting a change from SF-3- NP to MF-6-NP for Tract 1 and from GR-MU-NP to GR-MU-V-NP for Tract 2. On February 1, 2021 the applicant removed Tract 1 from the rezoning request. Please see Exhibit C- Original Zoning Request. A petition has been filed in response to the proposed rezoning. The petition is currently being reviewed by staff to determine if it meets the criteria of a Valid Petition. Please see Exhibit D- Valid Petition Request. The rezoning tract is immediately adjacent to a historic cemetery that dates to the 1800s. Neighbors have expressed concerned about the possibility of graves being located outside the property lines of the cemetery and possibly located on the rezoning tract. The rezoning tract is not located on an existing or future core transit corridor. Springdale Road is designated as an Activity Corridor in the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The rezoning tract is located northwest of the intersection of East 12th Street and Springdale Road; the undeveloped property is zoned GR-MU-NP. Immediately south of the property is a small retail center that is also zoned GR-MU-NP and contains general restaurant-limited and personal services land uses. Immediately west of the rezoning tract is undeveloped SF-3-NP property that is under the same ownership as the rezoning …

Tree Evaluation Tree #913 - 32" red oak (Quercus shumardii) Canopy Conditions Major asymmetry, unbalanced crown, and an overextended limb (Exhibit 1). 3 2 of 40B-7 Structure/Trunk Multiple attachments – all the leaders (scaffold branches) are connected at one place on the trunk. This is inherently a weakness with this tree’s main union due to lack of branch taper (Exhibit 2). Included bark was observed between two unions where stems grow closely together causing weak, under-supported branch angles which may cause branch or total tree failure (Exhibit 3). Root System Root system is almost entirely covered with impacted impervious cover. Tree has been buried to an unknown depth as the root flare is not visible. Soil, mulch, or fill packed against the bark is harmful to the tree and can lead to long term decay, decline, and instability of the tree. Overall Condition Tree #913 is in fair condition due to structure and poor attachments. Tree #911 - 25" pecan (Carya illinoinensis) Canopy Conditions Displays a heightened loading on the stems as a result of the length and excessive end weight of the branches and lack of inner branches. A large cavity was identified in one of the main leaders and hypoxylon canker was observed on live tissue (Exhibits 4 & …

B-12 (UPR for East 11th and 12th Street Urban Renewal Area Modification # 12; District 1).pdf original pdf

Thumbnail of the first page of the PDF
Page 1 of 19 pages

URBAN RENEWAL PLAN MODIFICATION # 12 Beginning in late 2018 the Urban Renewal Board of the City of Austin (URB) began working on updating the Urban Renewal Plan for the East 11th and12th Street Urban Renewal Area (URP) and associated Neighborhood Conservation Combining Districts (NCCDs). The purpose of their efforts was to update the URP and streamline the URP and NCCDs and to bring them into alignment. Attached is the proposed URP as recommended by the Urban Renewal Board at their January 19, 2021 and February 8, 2021 meetings. Major proposed changes include: • Replacing the existing definitions section which largely pertain to land uses with a Land Use section that mirrors the draft NCCDs. • Moving most of the existing “project controls” for 22 distinct areas in the URP to the NCCD documents to ensure that the site development standards are in one document. • Update the process to modify the URP to align with the rezoning process. • Reorganization of sections that are outdated and adding information about changes to the area since the URP’s adoption in 1999. The URP does adopt the subdistrict boundaries and site development standards of the East 11th and East 12th Street NCCD. For the East 11th Street NCCD, staff’s recommendation differs from the URB’s only outside of the boundaries of the URP. Therefore, staff suggests no changes to this recommendation.

PAUL T. MORIN A PROFESSIONAL CORPORATION ATTORNEY AT LAW 911 Ranch Rd. 620, Ste. 204 AUSTIN, TEXAS 78734 Paul T. Morin: BOARD CERTIFIED – Civil Trial Law TELEPHONE (512) 499-8200 FAX (512) 499-8203 February 8, 2021 Mike McHone Applicant for Congress 4802, LLC via email: RE: 4802 S. Congress, SP-2019-0600C PARD Public Access Easement Liability analysis of a Public Access Easement on a 225 ft. long, 25 ft. wide Driveway/Fire Lane in a 125 unit condo project—The Wilder Dear Mr. McHone: In connection with your work for the land/project owner, Congress 4802, LLC, for The Wilder condominium project (new construction) located at 4802 S. Congress, Austin, Texas, you have asked for an analysis of the landowner’s liability arising from the use by the general public of a public access easement that the City of Austin Parks and Recreation Department is requiring the landowner to grant on this 125 unit condo project’s 225 ft. long, 25 ft. wide Driveway/Fire Lane in order to give the general public access to the Williamson Creek Greenbelt. It is my understanding that you will share this analysis with the City of Austin Planning Commission. It is my understanding that in your meeting with the Parks and Recreation Board on January 26, 2021, the Board (and/or staff and/or City legal staff), in response to your concerns about the public access easement creating liability for the landowner to the general public, mentioned that the Texas Recreational Use Statute would protect the landowner. Consequently, on behalf of the landowner, you have asked me for this analysis. The Texas Recreational Use Statute and the case law: Texas Civil Practice Remedies Code Chapter 75 discusses limitations on a landowner’s liability arising from a third party’s recreational use of the landowner’s property (the Texas Recreational Use Statute or “RUS”). Specific to this discussion, sections 75.002 and 75.003 pertain to the private, non-agricultural land that is used for recreational purposes. The RUS defines recreational activity broadly, including hunting, fishing, swimming, boating, camping, hiking, exploring, bicycling, dog-walking, and “pleasure driving”, among other activities. Additionally, Mike McHone February 8, 2021 Page 2 soccer,1 diving,2 and playing on playground equipment3 have been held to be recreation within the meaning of the statute. Under the Texas RUS, a landowner who gives permission for others to enter their property for recreational purposes does not assure that the property is safe and does not owe their guest any …

Vision & Goals 1. 1.1.0 (b): why is the language, “Use green infrastructure to protect environmentally sensitive areas and integrate nature into the city,” different from the language in Imagine Austin? Staff response: This is the language in the current TCM from rule adoption in 2014, staff is open to suggestions to better match Imagine Austin. Pedestrian Facilities 1. 4.1.1 (B): Is 80” sufficient for a vertical clearance considering standard male heights in the US? Staff response: 80 inches is the vertical clearance in ADA and PROWAG and TAS, however we did update this vertical clearance to 8 feet in the latest draft. 2. 4.1.1 (C): Does this ensure that there are no windy/circuitous sidewalks unless unavoidable? Staff response: Additional criteria and language has been added to Section 4.1.3 in latest draft: "Meandering paths should avoid sharp turns or transitions and gradually transition no more than 1 ft. off path per 5 ft. of sidewalk length and maintain a straight section no less than the width of the sidewalk between transitions, where able". 3. 4.1.3: Any approval of flexible design standards must ensure that accessibility for users with mobility impairments is prioritized. Can this be added to provide clarity? Staff response: This is covered by PROWAG and TAS standard requirements, of which the TCM requires users to follow. 4. 4.1.6: Can staff clarify what “depending on site conditions” means here? Staff response: This language was removed in the latest draft and section 4.1.6 changed to reflect director approval in addition to sidewalk ordinance and LDC requirements. 5. 4.2.2 Table 4-1: Is 1200’ appropriate for Level 2 and 3 streets that are not on the Transit Priority Network? This includes streets such as E 6th and E 12th. Staff response: This has been changed in the latest draft to reflect 600 feet. 6. 4.2.2 (A): Can staff explain how this applies to crossings? Staff response: This can be used as justification to require a crossing if the distance between crossings exceeds Table 4-1. 7. General: Where are the guidelines for locating bus stops and shelters, including the cross-sections for such facilities with pedestrian facilities. Staff response: These are located in Section 6 and are included in the pedestrian zone. Comprehensive Transportation Review 1. 10.2.0 (D) Why are other strategies to reduce VMT or automobile usage not included in this, such as parking reductions combined with other strategies, locating developments in proximity …

April 27, 2021 Planning Commission Q & A Report B-12 / B-14: Question Commissioner Connolly I'm reviewing items 12-14, and find it would be helpful if staff could provide us with more information about the Capitol View Corridor overlap with 11th and 12th st. Specifically, I think it would be immensely helpful in our discussion if we could know what the height determinations are for the parcels in the Urban Renewal Plan area that fall within the CVC. Please let me know if you need any clarification around this. Staff Response: There are two CVCs that affect portions of the East 11th Street NCCD and Urban Renewal Plan (URP). The first and most prominent is the “East Seventh Street Bridge over the Texas-New Orleans Railroad” which covers the north side of East 11th Street from Branch to Navasota Streets within the boundaries of the URP. It does not affect Rosewood Avenue. The second is the “11th Street Threshold” corridor which end at Branch Street. See map below. I cannot tell you how the CVCs may or may not affect development along 11th Street. What I can say, is that two approximately four-story buildings that are 50’-60’ tall (Street-Jones and Snell Buildings) were constructed along that corridor, I believe in the 1990s or early 2000s. Question Commissioner Connolly: Is there any way we can find more precise information, or calculations about the high allowances for the areas indicated under those two CVCs? It seems that we may be granting a significant increase in entitlements in the area, but it would be helpful to understand what the effective size and where the precise locations of that increase will be. Staff Response: Calculating the CVC requires calculations that I don’t know how to do and would not be available by this evening. What I was able to find is existing building heights which can serve as proxy measurements of what is allowed under the CVC affecting E. 11th St. I did some research and reached out to colleagues and this is what I was able to find for three buildings along the north side of the street. • Street-Jones Building (55’-59’) • Snell Building (45’) The sloping topography on the site where these were built likely accounts to their differing heights. • East Village Lofts (white building with orange panels) (50’) I am not an expert in CVCs, but it is my understanding …
