C14-2020-0044 1 ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE: C14-2020-0044 – Saxon Acres Residential Zoning DISTRICT: 3 ZONING FROM: SF-3-NP TO: SF-6-NP ADDRESS: 316 Saxon Lane & 6328 El Mirando Street SITE AREA: 2.9 acres PROPERTY OWNER: Saxon Acres LLC (Danny Walker) AGENT: Thrower Design (A. Ron Thrower) CASE MANAGER: Kate Clark (512-974-1237, kate.clark@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends townhouse and condominium residence – neighborhood plan (SF-6-NP) combining district zoning. For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see page 2. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: July 14, 2020 Scheduled for Planning Commission June 23, 2020 Approved Neighborhood’s request to postpone to July 14, 2020 on the consent agenda. 12-0 [J. Thompson, R. Schneider – 2nd; P. Seeger was off the dais]. CITY COUNCIL ACTION: July 30, 2020 Scheduled for City Council ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES On May 26, 2020 the Montopolis Neighborhood Planning Contact Team (MNPCT) held their monthly meeting to discuss zoning cases in their area. They were not able to discuss this case at their meeting and have requested to postpone it to the next Planning Commission meeting on July 14th. All communication received for this rezoning case can be found in Exhibit C: Correspondence Received. 1 of 25B-04C14-2020-0044 2 On June 18, 2020 staff received a letter and petition in opposition to the rezoning of this property from the MNPCT President. Due to current events, staff accepted electronic signatures to start the verification process. The petition organizer was informed that original signatures are required to complete the validation process and was sent the case manager’s mailing address. A current map and list of property owners of the petition area and the electronic signatures received to date are included in Exhibit D: Formal Petition. To date, the petition is not considered “valid” because staff has not received the original signatures. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: This property is approximately 2.9 acres in size and is accessed by either Saxon Lane or El Mirando Street. It is currently zoned SF-3-NP and is not developed. Adjacent to the north, west and south of the property are tracts zoned SF-3-NP with a mixture of single family and duplex residential buildings. Across Saxon Lane to the east and southeast are tracts zone GR-NP and LR-NP. Both of these are undeveloped. See Exhibit A: Zoning Map and Exhibit B: Aerial Map for visual context. 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 requesting a base zoning district of SF-6. This district is intended as an area for moderate density single family, duplex, two family, townhouse and condominium use. It is appropriate for areas in which unusually large lots predominate with access to other than minor residential streets, and in selected areas where a transition from single-family to multifamily use is appropriate. The subject property is 2.9 acres in size and on the periphery of the neighborhood. It is also approximately 465 feet (0.08 miles) from the US Highway 183 right-of-way and next to existing properties zoned GR-NP and LR-NP. Rezoning this property to SF-6-NP would provide a transition in use between the existing commercial zoning to the south and east, and residential zoning to the west and north.

This property’s base district zoning was not rezoned (changed) during this process. EXISTING STREET CHARACTERISTICS: Street ROW Pavement Classification Sidewalks Bike Route Capital Metro (within ¼ mile) No No No No 1 1 Saxon Lane ~55’ Existing 24’ El Mirando St. ~95’ Existing 76’ OTHER STAFF COMMENTS: Comprehensive Planning This rezoning case is located on the north side of the El Mirando Street cul-de-sac and south terminus of Saxon Lane, on vacant parcel that is approximately 2.92 acres in size. The property does not abut nor is it close to an Activity Corridor or Center. This project is located within the boundaries of the Montopolis Neighborhood Planning Area. Surrounding land uses includes single family housing and vacant land to the north; to the south is single family housing; to the east is a duplex, vacant land, the Citivan Neighborhood Park and Pool, and the Montopolis Community Center; and to the west are single family housing and a food processing business, located within a converted house. The proposal is to build an unknown number of condo units, at 13 dwelling units per acres. Connectivity A CapMetro bus stop is located 850 feet from the subject property. There are no public sidewalks located along Saxon Lane but there is an intermittent public sidewalk system along El Mirando Street. A community pool and park, a public school, a community center and a variety of retail uses are located within a half of a mile from the subject property. While mobility options are fair, the connectivity options in the area are good. 4 of 25B-04C14-2020-0044 5 Montopolis Neighborhood Plan The Montopolis Future Land Use Map classifies this portion of Montopolis Drive as Single Family. For all plans adopted prior to January 2002 (the Montopolis Plan was adopted in 2001), zone SF-6 is permitted in the “Single Family” land use designation. The following goal, objections and actions are taken from the Montopolis Plan. • Goal 2: Create Homes for all Stages of Life within Montopolis. (p 14) o Objective 4: Enhance and protect existing single family housing.  Action 12: Preserve the existing Single Family uses and zoning in the older, established areas of Montopolis.  Action 13: Preserve residential zoning in the interior of East Montopolis to allow for new homes to be built.  Action 14: Preserve Single Family zoning in the interior of South Montopolis. o Objective 5: Create multiple housing types of varied intensities. The Montopolis neighborhood has a mix of single-family houses and larger apartment complexes. Based on the policies above, this proposed townhouse/condo project supports the Montopolis Neighborhood Plan because it provides new housing and housing choice of a varied intensity. Imagine Austin The following Imagine Austin policies support the zoning change: • HN P1. Distribute a variety of housing types throughout the City to expand the choices able to meet the financial and lifestyle needs of Austin’s diverse population. • HN P5. Promote a diversity of land uses throughout Austin to allow a variety of housing types including rental and ownership opportunities for singles, families with and without children, seniors, persons with disabilities, and multi-generational families. • HN P10. Create complete neighborhoods across Austin that have a mix of housing types and land uses, affordable housing and transportation options, and access to schools, retail, employment, community services, and parks and recreation options. The Austin Strategic Housing Blueprint, which is an amendment to Imagine Austin, includes goals for affordable housing in every City Council district. While this applicant has not identified this as an affordable housing project, it will provide additional missing middle housing. Based on Imagine Austin and Montopolis Neighborhood Plan polices that supports a variety of housing types and new housing, this project supports the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan. 5 of 25B-04C14-2020-0044 6 6 of 25B-04C14-2020-0044 7 Environmental Suburban Watershed: This site is located over two watersheds.

Site Plan Site plans will be required for any new development other than single-family or duplex residential. Any development which occurs in an SF-6 or less restrictive zoning district which is located 540 feet or less from property in an SF-5 or more restrictive zoning district will be subject to compatibility development regulations. Any new development is subject to Subchapter E. Design Standards and Mixed Use. Additional comments will be made when the site plan is submitted. Compatibility Standards The site is subject to compatibility standards. Along the northern, western, and southern property lines, the following standards apply: • No structure may be built within 25 feet of the property line. • No structure in excess of two stories or 30 feet in height may be constructed within 50 feet of property zoned SF-5 or more restrictive. • No structure in excess of three stories or 40 feet in height may be constructed within 100 feet of the property line. • No parking or driveways are allowed within 25 feet of the property line. • A landscape area at least 25 feet wide is required along the property line.

Airport Overlay This site is located within the Austin-Bergstrom Airport Controlled Compatible Land Use Area Overlay. No use will be allowed that can create electrical interference with navigational signals or radio communications between airport and aircraft, make it difficult for pilots to distinguish between the airport lights and others, result in glare in the eyes of pilots using the airport, impair visibility in the vicinity of the airport, create bird strike hazards or otherwise in any way endanger or interfere with the landing, taking off, or maneuvering of aircraft intending to use the Austin-Bergstrom Airport. Height limitations and incompatible uses with each Airport Overlay zone are established in the Airport Overlay Ordinance. Airport Hazard Zoning Committee review may be required prior to Planning Commission Hearing. Additional comments may be generated during the site plan review process. Transportation The Austin Strategic Mobility Plan (ASMP) adopted 04/11/2019, identifies existing right-of-way as sufficient for Saxon Lane, but will be reviewed at the time of site plan. A traffic impact analysis is not triggered at this time and should be deferred until the time of site plan when final land uses and intensities are known. Austin Water Utility The landowner intends to serve the site with City of Austin water and wastewater utilities. The landowner, at own expense, will be responsible for providing any water and wastewater utility improvements, offsite main extensions, utility relocations and or abandonments required by the land use. The water and wastewater utility plan must be reviewed and approved by Austin Water for compliance with City criteria and suitability for operation and maintenance. Depending on the development plans submitted, water and or wastewater service extension requests (SER) may be required. Be advised that this site is in an area of wastewater capacity concern and will require SER for wastewater service to evaluate capacity. All water and wastewater construction must be inspected by the City of Austin. The landowner must pay the City inspection fee with the utility construction. The landowner must pay the tap and impact fee once the landowner makes an application for a City of Austin water and wastewater utility tap permit.

The Montopolis Neighborhood Plan Contact Team met on May 26th, 2020 at the Southeast Health and Wellness Center. No representative from Ron Thrower, of the Thrower Design Group appeared at the meeting, who are the representatives for all the above zoning cases. They refused to attend the Contact meeting because they were not comfortable coming to the Montopolis community. The meeting was being held at one of the most sanitized locations, Southeast Health and Wellness Center and the room was huge enough to have social distance. They sent backup material on the day of meeting at 4:13pm. The Montopolis Neighborhood Plan Contact Team opposes the zoning change for all the above listed properties! The Montopolis Neighborhood Plan was completed under City of Austin’s Neighborhood Planning Program and was adopted as part of the Austin Tomorrow Comprehensive Plan on September 27th, 2001. The property at 508 Kemp was approved as SF-3-NP. We ask that the Austin City Council respect the adopted Montopolis Neighborhood Plan. After emerging successful against the forces of rapacious development at the Montopolis Negro School in 2018, the Montopolis community is once again being besieged by profit-seeking real estate developers with little to no regard for the community’s fragile natural and cultural environment, or it iconic history. Montopolis, also known as “Poverty Island,” has a per capita income of $16,226, a Median Family Income of $31,875, and a poverty rate of 33% according to 2018 American Community Survey data. Accordingly, we guard our existing SF-3 owned property jealously, as we are a community of families. The Austin Human Rights Commission has declared gentrification to be a human rights violation. We call upon the Planning Commission and Austin City Council to reject this gentrifying up zoning in the name of racial justice and reconciliation. Montopolis has too much history and culture to be sliced up by the forces of unscrupulous real estate development in this fashion. The highest and best use of our land is protection, not speculation. 13 of 25B-04Clark, Kate From: Sent: To: Subject: Sofia Ojeda Friday, June 12, 2020 6:50 PM Clark, Kate Case Number C14-2020-0044 *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** The owner's at 6321 Crumley Lane, Austin Tx 78741 OBJECT to the subject property being re‐zoned.   Case Number: C14‐2020‐0044  Contact: Kate Clark  Public hearing: June 23, 2020, Planning Commission  CAUTION: This email was received at the City of Austin, from an EXTERNAL source. Please use caution when clicking links  or opening attachments. If you believe this to be a malicious and/or phishing email, please forward this email to  CSIRT@austintexas.gov.   1 14 of 25B-04Clark, Kate From: Sent: To: Subject: Bezner, Janet R Thursday, June 18, 2020 1:45 PM Clark, Kate Rezoning Concern *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Dear Ms. Clark,  I am writing to provide input for the Planning Commission meeting next week about the following properties,  which are adjacent and near a property I own at 204 Montopolis:  B-15 (C14-2020-0030 - 200 Montopolis Rezoning, District 3) B-16 (C14-2020-0029 - Montopolis Acres Rezoning, District 3) B-17 (C14-2020-0039 - Clovis and Kemp Rezone, District 3) B-18 (C14-2020-0044 - Saxon Acres Residential Zoning, District 3) B-19 (C14-2020-0038 - 508 Kemp Street, District 3) As you are probably aware, a developer has applied to rezone these lots to an SF‐6 designation, which we  oppose.  The lots are currently zoned SF‐3, which we believe is appropriate to preserve single family housing in  the neighborhood.  We are concerned if the lots are rezoned it will lead to increased traffic, increased  property taxes, and greater density and crowding, further stressing our natural resources.   Thank you,  Janet Bezner and Nancy Lesch  204A Montopolis  Austin, TX 78741  571‐234‐2841  CAUTION: This email was received at the City of Austin, from an EXTERNAL source. Please use caution when clicking links  or opening attachments. If you believe this to be a malicious and/or phishing email, please forward this email to  CSIRT@austintexas.gov.   1 15 of 25B-04Clark, Kate From: Sent: To: Subject: Hedda Elias Friday, June 19, 2020 12:07 PM Clark, Kate Zoning Montopolis Neighborhood *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Dear Planning Commission Members,   In reference to: B‐15, B‐16, B‐17, B‐18, B‐19  Part of being the anti‐racist city that Austin claims to be is to seek out and listen to the voices of the people who live in  the neighborhoods affected by development. Listen to how they are struggling to pay the taxes. Listen to how their  children cannot afford to keep the house they grew up in. Listen to the Montopolis Contact team. Listen to their plan.  Listen to our neighbors who took time out of their days to sign these petitions.   If you are really committed to the ideals of being equitable and anti‐racist, you will ask this community how we want to  develop and not pay it lip service. Because we do have a plan to keep the people in their homes who have lived here for  generations. We do have a plan to help each other repair our houses. We do have a plan to build more affordable  housing.   Help us. Don't help the developers who in their proposal will sell this new housing for $400 a square foot. That is not  something I can afford. That is definitely not something my neighbors, with a median income of $35,000 can afford. We  are surrounded by 3 petitions to build townhomes all on the route my daughter practices riding her bicycle on each day.  On our tiny street with no sidewalks. These developers did not come speak to the Montopolis Contact team.  We are talking about the gentrification that is happening right now. My husband grew up 2 blocks from where we built  our house. Our house is built on land we bought in 2012 for $65,000. Our property taxes are $9000 a year. As 2 teachers,  we have an income more that most of our neighbors, yet it is difficult for us to pay our taxes. This will make it impossible  for us to protest our property values. Impossible to build affordable housing on our street, as we have planned.   Please do your part.  We are counting on you,  Hedda and Noe Elias  304 Kemp Street  CAUTION: This email was received at the City of Austin, from an EXTERNAL source. Please use caution when clicking links  or opening attachments. If you believe this to be a malicious and/or phishing email, please forward this email to  CSIRT@austintexas.gov.   1 16 of 25B-04D E L M O N T E R D E T T S T N N O B B A S T R O P H W Y N B N LN SAXO T O R R E S S T D E L M O N T E R D N LN O X A S N LN O X A S D S R A G R A V R LIS D O P O T N O M C R U M L E Y L N E L M I R A N D O S T TH RASHER LN R LN E H S A R TH ± L Y N C H L N D S R A G R VA BUFFER PROPERTY_OWNER SUBJECT_TRACT PETITION Case#: C14-2020-0044 This product is for informational purposes and may not have been prepared for or be suitable for legal, engineering, or surveying purposes.
