The SCNPCT held its regular monthly meeting yesterday evening, April 12, 2021, and met with representatives from the East Riverside Oltorf Combined (EROC) Contact Team to discuss the proposed changes pertaining to the property located at 2105 Parker Lane: 1) Neighborhood Plan Amendment to change the land use designation on the FLUM from Civic to multifamily land use; and 2) Rezoning from SF-3-NP to MF-4-NP. The SCNPCT took into consideration the information provided by the EROC representatives as well as input from neighborhood associations representing residents within our SCNPCT boundaries, which is immediately South of the EROC boundary. With a quorum present and based on the information provided and comparing shared concerns of the residents East of IH 35, the SCNPCT membership voted not to support the proposed changes to the land use designation on the FLUM from Civic to multifamily land use and rezoning from SF-3-NP to MF-4-NP. The SCNPCT voted to support the East Riverside Oltorf Combined (EROC) Contact Team and join their efforts. We respectfully request the Planning Commission not approve the neighborhood plan amendment and zoning change requests. We respectfully request the Planning Commission carefully consider the long-term and overall impact such changes would have on the current and future residents of East Austin. Respectfully submitted, Ana Aguirre, Immediate Past Chair  Southeast Combined Neighborhood Plan Contact Team (SCNPCT)
