PLANNING COMMISISON SITE PLAN WAIVER REQUEST REVIEW SHEET 3 (973) 220-3055 221 Lessin Lane Lessin Lane Villas SP-2020-0364C PC HEARING DATE: March 23, 2021 219 Lessin Holdings (Christopher Affinito) 117 Lightsey Rd., #B Austin, TX 78704 KFM Engineering and Design (Mark Zupan) 8701 W. Hwy 71, Ste. 201G Austin, TX 78735 CASE NUMBER: PROJECT NAME: ADDRESS: COUNCIL DISTRICT #: OWNER/APPLICANT: ENGINEER: CASE MANAGER: PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT: The applicant is proposing to construct seventeen condominium units with parking, sidewalks, detention and water quality ponds, utilities, drive, and other associated site improvements. DESCRIPTION OF WAIVERS: The applicant is requesting a waiver from § 25-2-1063. The site is subject to a 25’ compatibility setback. The proposed development is encroaching into the compatibility 25’ setback on the west property line for detention and water quality ponds. The ponds are more than 5’ from the property line but within the 25’. COMPATIBILITY: Section 25-2-1051 states that Article 10 Compatibility Standards apply if a use in a SF-6 or less restrictive zoning district is located on a property across the street from or adjoining a property on which is zoned SF-5 or more restrictive or a use is permitted in a SF-5 or more restrictive zoning district is located. § 25-2-1063 - HEIGHT LIMITATIONS AND SETBACKS FOR LARGE SITES. Rosemary Avila Rosemary.avila@austintexas.gov (512) 628-8281 (512) 974-2784 (A) This section applies to a site that has: (1)an area that exceeds 20,000 square feet; or (2)a street frontage that exceeds 100 feet. (B) In this section, the term "structure" excludes a rain garden using no concrete that is designed in accordance with the Environmental Criteria Manual. A person may not construct a structure 25 feet or less from property: (1) in an urban family residence (SF-5) or more restrictive zoning district; or (2) on which a use permitted in an SF-5 or more restrictive zoning district is located SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the compatibility setback waiver request. All proposed units are not within the setback. The site complies with all other compatibility standard requirements, such as lighting, screening, and building heights. 1 of 6B-6 221 Lessin Lane Lessin Lane Villas SP-2020-0364C PROJECT INFORMATION: SITE AREA EXISTING ZONING WATERSHED WATERSHED ORDINANCE TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS Not required CAPITOL VIEW CORRIDOR PROPOSED ACCESS FLOOR-AREA RATIO BUILDING COVERAGE IMPERVIOUS COVERAGE EXISTING SURROUNDING ZONING AND LAND USES: Site North ZONING 1.4664 acres SF-6-NP East Bouldin Creek Comprehensive Watershed Ordinance (Urban) None Lessin Lane, Reyna Street, and Krebs Lane Allowed N/A 40% 55% Proposed N/A 40% 42.7% LAND USES Condominium R.O.W.

The site 1.45 acre lot is located 221 Lessin lane. Since the lot is adjacent to West Bouldin Creek, the property is inundated by the 100-year flood plain, it has multiple heritage trees and compatibility setbacks. We had to be creative in the design and we found the best place for the water quality and detention ponds was as close to the creek as possible. We are submitting this waiver letter from section § 25-2-1063 of the land development code. Compatibility Waiver for Ponds in a Setback for Lessin Lane Villas (SP-2020-0364C) • Per § 25-2-1063 Height Limitations and Setbacks for Large Sites, (B) states: In this section, the term “structure” excludes rain gardens using no concrete that is designed in accordance with the Environmental Criteria Manual. A person may not construct a structure 25-ft or less from property: o In an urban family residence (SF-5) or more restrictive zoning district; or o On which a use permitted in an SF-5 or more restrictive zoning district is located. We request that the detention and water quality ponds be allowed to be constructed on the west side of the property bordering West Bouldin Creek adjacent to the 100-yr floodplain in the compatibility setback more than 5-ft but less than 25-ft from the property line . This location is ideal for the ponds due to the proximity to the flood plain. The outfall structure will discharge directly into the creek and have no adverse effects. The ponds are not large and will be shielded from view due to the existing trees and brush. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us.

Dallas, TX 75019 . 469.899.0536 KFM-LLC.COM 02/10/20213 of 6B-6 From: To: Subject: Date: Rick Reyna Avila, Rosemary Case #SP-2020-0364C Monday, March 15, 2021 12:45:25 PM *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Ms. Aviila, I have concerns if allowing this group to build retention ponds inside the 25' setback. Won't this easily cause more flooding and pollution in the creek that sits in the setback? All these clowns care about is how many units they can stuff inside the project to make more money. My properties have been in my family for over 90 years and hate to see the neighborhood heading in this direction.
