6 March 2025 To the Board Members of the Planning Commission: My name is Brian Bedrosian. I am the Chair of the North Loop Neighborhood Plan Contact Team (NLNPCT – the “neighborhood”). I am writing this letter on behalf of the NLNPCT in support of United Properties’ (the “applicant”) request for DB90 zoning to be added to the combined properties north of 56th Street, south of Koenig Lane, east of the CapMetro Red Line tracks and west of Airport Blvd (collectively referred to as the “northern parcels”)– properties in the north-central sector of our plan area. On February 26th the NLNPCT held a Special Session devoted to the greater project that United Properties is proposing to build in this area of the neighborhood. The project area includes the northern parcels mentioned above, as well as additional properties within the same east-west boundaries down to 55th Street, along with a triangle of land between the Red Line tracks and the FLORA development just south of 55th (collectively referred to as the “southern parcels”). Stephen Buchanan of United Properties was in attendance at our meeting and presented the applicant’s current plans for the project. After much discussion, the eligible NLNPCT voting members present, representing a quorum of the overall NLNPCT membership, voted unanimously to support the applicant’s zoning requests contingent upon the signing of a Memorandum Of Understanding (MOU) between United Properties and the NLNPCT. In order to provide sufficient time to negotiate the contents of this MOU, the NLNPCT voted to permit the applicant to proceed with presenting their zoning case for the northern parcels to the Planning Commission and in exchange United Properties has agreed to postpone the hearing on the southern parcels until the MOU is signed and approved by both parties. 04 C14-2024-0167 - Airport & Koenig DB90 Tracts Rezoning - Parcel A1 of 2 We believe that this project has the opportunity to achieve the goals of North Loop Neighborhood Plan which targeted this area in our FLUM as a Neighborhood Urban Center. This land use category would provide increased density and affordability, new retail and commercial offerings, and rich public spaces – acting as an extension of our already successful urban corridor along North Loop Boulevard (53rd Street). We are concurrently working with the Parks and Recreation Department (PARD), ATP, TPW, CapMetro, the Redline Parkway Initiative, and Council District 4 to ensure that this project offers …

CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The proposed Restrictive Covenant Termination area is comprised of approximately 1.08 acres and is adjacent to Airport Boulevard, a transit-rich Imagine Austin corridor. The subject area is currently zoned CS-V-CO-NP (general commercial services – vertical mixed use building – conditional overlay – neighborhood plan) combining district. The property is located within the North Loop Neighborhood Plan Area, and is located within an area that was initiated by the City to zone certain tracts within the Neighborhood Plan area to 08 C14-79-019(RCT) - 701 and 703 E. 55th St. Public RC Termination – Parcel D1 of 27 C14-079-019(RCT) Page 2 accommodate the -V zoning district in 2008 (Ordinance No. 20080605-069). It is currently developed with an automobile parts retail store. The Restrictive Covenant states that the property should be developed in accordance with a site plan approved March 6, 1979, which relates to the existing development on the property. The Applicant proposes to terminate the Restrictive Covenant to allow for development of a multifamily project on the property. Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map), A-1 (Aerial View) and C (1979 Restrictive Covenant). BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: Staff supports the Termination request. A rezoning request is also on file for this Parcel (C14-2025-0012) from CS-V-CO-NP to CS-V-CO-DB90-NP. A building constructed under density bonus 90 (–DB90) standards allows for a mix of residential uses and commercial uses, and the result is typically retail, restaurants and offices on the ground floor, and residential units on upper levels. City Council has provided policy and direction for having more residential density and increased affordability, as well as incentivizing vertical mixed use buildings throughout the City. Further, City Council previously approved rezoning this property to allow for vertical mixed-use buildings in 2008. Therefore, the 1979 Restrictive Covenant is no longer required on the site.

North Lamar and South Congress Station Area Vision Plans Planning Commission Briefing Tuesday, March 11, 2025 Agenda 1 What is ETOD? 2 What’s an ETOD Station Area? 3 Station Area Vision Plans 4 Next Steps 5 Discussion What is ETOD? 1 What is ETOD? ETOD is an approach to planning that puts housing, jobs, services, and retail near public transit stations. This makes it easier for people to get to these places using public transit and creates walkable neighborhoods with a range of services. Supporting Equitable Outcomes ETOD goes beyond just thinking about places—it focuses also on the people in these places, especially those who have been left out of past planning efforts.

DESIGN COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION 20250224-003 Date: February 24, 2025 Subject: Austin Core Transportation Plan Motioned By: Commissioner Luckens Seconded By: Commissioner Carroll Recommendation The Design Commission recommends the Austin Core Transportation Plan to City Council with the following friendly amendments. • Street trees be mandatory in the corridor projects presented in the Austin Core Transportation Plan • The implementation of the plan shall include the green costs and green infrastructure estimates be part of the base estimates and not a line item The inclusion of a multimodal transportation plan in and out of the urban core to the surrounding communities. • • Projects in the Austin Core Transportation Plan be brought to the Design Commission. Rationale: The rational for supporting The Core Transportation Plan with the friendly amendments is to emphasize items of importance that reflect vision and goals set forth in the Urban Design Guidelines. 1. We strongly feel the need to prioritize the mandatory inclusion of street trees for any right of way improvements. Street trees are a necessity that greatly helps us meet our goals of becoming a more walkable city by providing critical shading along sidewalks, helps mitigate climate change through carbon sequestration and can act as a barrier to protect pedestrians from vehicular traffic. 2. The commission believes that the plan should also include provisions to address the reduction of the TxDOT level speeds as vehicles enter downtown city streets. This protects pedestrian and existing downtown multimodal transportation from collisions with vehicles moving at unsafe rates of speed. 3. The plan should also include a plan for multimodal transportation in and out of the urban core from the surrounding districts to provide for an equitable opportunity to explore the downtown core. 4. The commission agreed that the priority and supporting projects presented in The Austin Core Transportation Plan meet the requirements of infrastructure projects to be reviewed by the commission and should come before the commission for review and comment. A majority of the elements proposed in the plan include design strategies that directly correspond to the goals of the Urban Design Guidelines.

Outlook Comments for the Planning Commission on March 11 From Sandy Wilder < > Date Mon 3/10/2025 9:13 AM To Tomko, Jonathan < > You don't often get email from . Learn why this is important External Email - Exercise Caution Hello, Mr. Tomko. I’m sending this email because I won’t be able to attend Tuesday night’s Planning Commission meeting where a re-zoning request for 2967 Manor Road will be considered. This parcel is within the Austin Heights Neighborhood Association boundaries, where my house also is, thus I have these comments. Our neighborhood has always been pro-housing. Six years ago, we worked closely with Foundation Communities on the M Station project. The Foundation Communities CEO attended Austin Heights Neighborhood Association meetings, shared site plans, explained the urgent need for housing, and answered all our questions. In the end, we unanimously supported M Station, and today, we are proud to live alongside our M Station Apartments neighbors. A plaque in the M Station learning center even recognizes the Austin Heights Neighborhood Association as a supporter. We are not opposed to housing—we are opposed to bad planning. M Station was a carefully planned, thoughtful project done in consultation with the neighborhood. In contrast, this proposed zoning change lacks transparency, thoughtful planning, and meaningful neighborhood engagement. Pro-housing means getting it right, not pushing through changes without community input. Thank you for filing my comments with the commissioners, since I’m unable to attend in person or virtually.

6 March 2025 To the Board Members of the Planning Commission: My name is Brian Bedrosian. I am the Chair of the North Loop Neighborhood Plan Contact Team (NLNPCT – the “neighborhood”). I am writing this letter on behalf of the NLNPCT in support of United Properties’ (the “applicant”) request for DB90 zoning to be added to the combined properties north of 56th Street, south of Koenig Lane, east of the CapMetro Red Line tracks and west of Airport Blvd (collectively referred to as the “northern parcels”)– properties in the north-central sector of our plan area. On February 26th the NLNPCT held a Special Session devoted to the greater project that United Properties is proposing to build in this area of the neighborhood. The project area includes the northern parcels mentioned above, as well as additional properties within the same east-west boundaries down to 55th Street, along with a triangle of land between the Red Line tracks and the FLORA development just south of 55th (collectively referred to as the “southern parcels”). Stephen Buchanan of United Properties was in attendance at our meeting and presented the applicant’s current plans for the project. After much discussion, the eligible NLNPCT voting members present, representing a quorum of the overall NLNPCT membership, voted unanimously to support the applicant’s zoning requests contingent upon the signing of a Memorandum Of Understanding (MOU) between United Properties and the NLNPCT. In order to provide sufficient time to negotiate the contents of this MOU, the NLNPCT voted to permit the applicant to proceed with presenting their zoning case for the northern parcels to the Planning Commission and in exchange United Properties has agreed to postpone the hearing on the southern parcels until the MOU is signed and approved by both parties. 05 C14-2025-0010 - Airport & Koenig DB90 Tracts Rezoning - Parcel B1 of 2 We believe that this project has the opportunity to achieve the goals of North Loop Neighborhood Plan which targeted this area in our FLUM as a Neighborhood Urban Center. This land use category would provide increased density and affordability, new retail and commercial offerings, and rich public spaces – acting as an extension of our already successful urban corridor along North Loop Boulevard (53rd Street). We are concurrently working with the Parks and Recreation Department (PARD), ATP, TPW, CapMetro, the Redline Parkway Initiative, and Council District 4 to ensure that this project offers …

I am told Walter Wukasch will be in a@endance. I want to repeat my procedural confusion of this case. As I understand the 2610 (or 2602) Hume Place owner is reques/ng a waiver or the UNO Streetscape Requirement from the Planning Commission which has been denied by COA DSD Director. The UNO Streetscape Requirement is set out in Chapter 25-2-760 Of the COA LDC. Chapter 25-2-472 & 473 gives authority for non- compliance of the LDC regula/ons for 25-2 to the Board of Adjustments for considera/on of the appropriate Variance in accordance with their authority. The BOA is a judicial Board that makes a decision based on findings of relevant facts. This process has been followed on several projects through the years in the UNO District. Why is this not the proper COA venue in this case? Best regards, Mike 1 of 5 16 SP-2022-0218C.SH - Avalon Pointe3 of 3

From: Jennifer Cisneros < > Sent: Monday, March 10, 2025 2:32 PM To: Tomko, Jonathan <Jonathan.Tomko@austintexas.gov>; Meredith, Maureen <Maureen.Meredith@austintexas.gov> Cc: Daniela Valle < >; Mark Hilton < >; Steve Hunt < >; John Bambas < >; Vinny Calzone < > Subject: Opposition to Proposed Rezoning at 2967 Manor Rd. My name is Jennifer Cisneros, and I am a resident of District 1. I am reaching out to express my opposition to the proposed rezoning of 2967 Manor Rd, located at the southwest corner of the Manor Rd./Airport Blvd. intersection. Thrower Design is lobbying to rezone this property to DB90, effectively fragmenting the existing MLK TOD framework. To my understanding, this is the first time a DB90 request has been submitted within a TOD, setting a concerning precedent with unknown long-term consequences. A key benefit of the 60-foot height restriction within the TOD is its role in protecting single-family dwellings from encroachment by large scale development. At this time, there is no publicly available site plan for the proposed project, yet we do know that a 90-foot structure directly abutting our neighborhood is not in line with those protections. Beyond zoning concerns, I also want to highlight the serious drainage issues in the area. I invite you to review the attached images and video (link below) showing the impact of rainstorms on the drainage creek that runs alongside my residence. Our neighborhood has not received any information about how the proposed development will address environmental impacts, stormwater management, or infrastructure strain. https://photos.app.goo.gl/moyz1pawSB5n19jo6 Victoria Haase of Thrower Design has stated that "a detailed review of drainage matters and engineering of this site will occur at the time of site plan. If it is found that there are additional considerations to be made downstream, that will be addressed at that time." This vague assurance does little to alleviate the concerns of those of us who live here and will be directly affected by these changes. I urge you to oppose this rezoning request and advocate for responsible development that aligns with the existing TOD guidelines and prioritizes the well-being of our community. Thank you for your time and consideration. I appreciate your leadership and look forward to your response.
