C14-05-0112(RCA2) 1 RESTRICTIVE COVENANT AMENDMENT CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE: C14-05-0112(RCA2) – AMLI South Shore DISTRICT: 9 EXISTING ZONING: ERC (Corridor Mixed Use) ADDRESS: 1720 South Lakeshore Blvd SITE AREA: 10.48 acres PROPERTY OWNER: 1620 East Riverside Drive, LLC. (Taylor Bowen) AGENT: Drenner Group, PC (Amanda Swor) CASE MANAGER: Kate Clark (512-974-1237, kate.clark@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends amending the Restrictive Covenants to increase the total number of units allowed on site to 520 units and removing the ownership requirements. For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see page 2. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: August 25, 2020 Scheduled for Planning Commission July 28, 2020 Approved the Neighborhood’s request to postpone to August 25, 2020. [F. Kazi, J. Thompson – 2nd; C. Hempel was absent]. Vote 12-0. CITY COUNCIL ACTION: September 3, 2020 Scheduled for City Council RESTRICTIVE COVENANT AMENDMENT RECORDING NUMBER: On August 18, 2020 staff received an email from the EROC Contact Team stating they voted to oppose the removal of the for-sale requirement proposed by the applicant. Staff has received comments both in favor of and in opposition to this case, please see Exhibit C: Correspondence Received. 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 this development would increase density in an area that is already developed without replacing any existing units.

ZOOQ APPROVED AS TO FORM: City of Austin Restrictive covenant-Nassour/Contessa Dormitory Assoc 11 of 17B-4 12 of 17B-4 13 of 17B-4 14 of 17B-4 Planning Board, I am one of the owners of 1818 South Lakeshore Blvd., the condominium complex adjacent to this proposed project. I would like to go on record as opposing this request, specifically the portion related to removal of the deed restriction that addresses “for-sale units.” If you review the history of redevelopment of this property dating back to 2005, you will see that a significant amount of green space, trees and public access was removed in order to build the current AMLI buildings. A great amount of energy and time was spent in negotiations between the City, stakeholders, and adjacent property owners crafting the density bonus package and deed restrictions currently on this property. I understand there are housing demands, and the City is looking for increased density, however we should not give away the concept of homeownership for this goal. It was important 15 years ago and even more so now to make available “for sale units” in this area of the City. I am certain AMLI will decry opine that it does not fit into their business practices, or business model. This was their position in 2005 and significant bonuses were received by them at the time of redevelopment. I would ask that this Board and the City insist that AMLI live up to their obligations and that you deny their request.  Sincerely , Stephen Tittle 15 of 17B-4 Clark, Kate From: Sent: To: Subject: Hi,   Tim Thomas Tuesday, July 28, 2020 9:54 AM Clark, Kate C14-05-0112(RCA2) *** External Email - Exercise Caution ***   I would like to add my enthusiastic support for removing the requirement for home ownership on this property and  add additional rental units.     The majority of the people who live in my neighborhood rent. While opportunities for home ownership sound good in  theory, in practice they help to increase segregation the neighborhood. Due to historical structural racism, such as the  way the GI Bill was handled, the majority of people with the generational wealth to purchase a home in this area are  white, and so saying you prefer home ownership is implicitly saying you would prefer more white people in the  neighborhood without having to say it explicitly.    These additional rental units will provide additional housing for the people who need it most and I urge you to remove  the conditional overlay.  Thanks,  Tim Thomas  3403 Santa Monica, 78741  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 17B-4 Clark, Kate From: Sent: To: Cc: Subject: Malcolm Yeatts Tuesday, August 18, 2020 2:37 PM Clark, Kate 'Amanda Swor' RE: C14-05-0112(RCA2) proposal *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** The EROC Contact Team has voted to oppose the removal of the for‐sale requirement proposed by the zoning change  request. The vote closed Monday night 8/17. The owner had proposed additional affordable rental units in exchange for  the removal of this requirement, but the Team did not consider the additional number of units to be an adequate  exchange for a requirement that was specified by City Council in the NPA‐05‐0112. Increasing the opportunities for  owner‐occupied housing is one of the main goals of the EROC Plan.  I would like to speak at the Planning Commission  meeting.  Malcolm Yeatts Chair, EROC Contact Team  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 17 of 17B-4
