ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE: C14-2021-0173 (11911 Burnet Road) DISTRICT: 7 ADDRESS: 11901 and 11911 Burnet Road ZONING FROM: NBG-NR-NP TO: NBG-CMU-NP SITE AREA: 3.016 acres PROPERTY OWNER: Randolph-Brooks Federal Credit Union AGENT: Drenner Group, PC (Amanda Swor) CASE MANAGER: Sherri Sirwaitis (512-974-3057, sherri.sirwaitis@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMEDATION: Staff recommends NBG-CMU-NP, North Burnet Gateway-Commercial Mixed Use Subdistrict-Neighborhood Plan Combining District, zoning. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: December 22, 2021 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: B-011 of 17 C14-2021-0173 ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: 2 The site under consideration is a 3.016 acres lot that is currently developed with a financial services use (RBFCU). It is within the North Burnet/Gateway Combined Neighborhood Planning Area and is located at the northeast corner of Burnet Road and Gault Lane. The property in question is zoned NBG with a Neighborhood Residential subdistrict designation (NBG-NR). There is a multifamily use to the north and east (Radius at the Domain Apartments). To the south, there is an office complex (IBM Broadmoor campus) containing seven-buildings with 1.1 million square feet of office space. Across Burnet Road to the west, there is another financial services use (Capital Credit Union) and office uses. The applicant is requesting a rezoning to the NBG with a Commercial Mixed Use subdistrict designation (NBG-CMU) to allow for a professional office use development with a base entitlement height of 120 feet and 3:1 FAR (Please see Applicant Request Letter – Exhibit C). The NBG-NR subdistrict permits a maximum FAR of 2:1 and up to 60 feet in building height with the development bonus (Please see Figure 4-1 NR: NBG Zoning District General Site Development Standards – Exhibit D). The proposed zoning of NBG-CMU subdistrict which will permit a maximum FAR of 3:1 and up to 180 feet in building height with the development bonus (Please see Figure 4-1 CMU: NBG Zoning District General Site Development Standards – Exhibit E). The staff’s recommendation is to grant the applicant’s request for the North Burnet/ Gateway-Commercial Mixed Use Subdistrict-Neighborhood Plan (NBG-CMU-NP) Combining District, zoning for this property. The proposed NBG-CMU subdistrict will provide for a transition in uses and intensity between the NBG-NR zoning to the north and the NBG-TOD-Gateway zoning to the south. The up zoning from NBG-NR to the NBG- CMU will encourage a mixture of uses and more density at this location. The Commercial Mixed Use subdistrict will allow for an increase in floor-to-area ratio and building height so that the applicant case redevelop the property with more density along a major arterial roadway and Core Transit Corridor, North Burnet Road, across from The Domain. The applicant agrees with the staff’s recommendation. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. North Burnet/Gateway district is the designation for an identified area of existing low density, auto-oriented commercial, warehouse, and industrial uses that is the subject of an approved master plan for redevelopment of the area into a higher density urban mixed- use neighborhood that is more pedestrian friendly and takes advantage of the links to commuter rail transit and the area’s key position in the urban core. B-012 of 17 C14-2021-0173 3 Commercial Mixed Use (CMU) is a high density mixed-use subdistrict, appropriate for high rise residential, major employers, destination retail and large scale civic uses. 2. The proposed zoning should promote consistency and orderly planning. The NBG-CMU subdistrict will permit the applicant to utilize the property for a more intensive office development adjacent to the IBM/Broadmoor Campus, to the south, and across North Burnet Road from The Domain. The current NBG-NR subdistrict limits the Professional Office use to 5,000 gross sq. ft. The proposed NBG-CMU subdistrict will provide for a transition in the intensity of uses and development between the NBG-NR zoning to the north and the NBG-TOD-Gateway Zone, the most intense sub-district within the regulating plan, to the south. The up zoning to the NBG-CMU subdistrict will encourage a mixture of uses and more density at this location. The location of the site is appropriate for the proposed mixture and intensity of uses because the property in question fronts onto a major arterial roadway and Core Transit Corridor, North Burnet Road, and is located near a commuter rail line.

The applicant is requesting to rezone the property from NBG-NP Neighborhood Residential (NR) to NBG-NP Commercial Mixed Use (CMU). The intended use of the site is professional office use development. • The change will allow for an increase in building height from 40-60 feet to 120 feet. • The change will allow for an increase in FAR from 2:1 to 3:1 • A portion of the Property is located along a Core Transit Corridor (CTC), which is intended to have sufficient population density, a mix-uses, and transit. • Adjacent properties to both the south and west have the designation of Transit Oriented Development Gateway Zone (TOD), the most intense sub-district within the regulating plan. Therefore, compatibility will not be an issue. Based on the information above, the staff believes that the requested change to rezone is supported by the North Burnet Regulating plan. Environmental The site is not located over the Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone. The site is in the Walnut Creek Watershed of the Colorado River Basin, which is classified as a Suburban Watershed by Chapter 25-8 of the City's Land Development Code. The site is in the Desired Development Zone. Under current watershed regulations, development or redevelopment on this site will be subject to the following impervious cover limits: Development Classification % of Gross Site Area % of Gross Site Area Single-Family (minimum lot size 5750 sq. ft.) Other Single-Family or Duplex Multifamily Commercial 50% 55% 60% 80% with Transfers 60% 60% 70% 90% According to floodplain maps there is no floodplain within or adjacent to the project location. Standard landscaping and tree protection will be required in accordance with LDC 25-2 and 25-8 for all development and/or redevelopment. B-019 of 17 C14-2021-0173 10 At this time, site specific information is unavailable regarding vegetation, areas of steep slope, or other environmental features such as bluffs, springs, canyon rimrock, caves, sinkholes, and wetlands. Under current watershed regulations, development or redevelopment requires water quality control with increased capture volume and control of the 2 year storm on site. At this time, no information has been provided as to whether this property has any ls that preempt current water quality or Code requirements. Fire No comments. Parks and Recreation There are currently no parkland requirements for uses other than residential and hotel. Given that the application proposes an office use with the NBG-CMU designation, there would not be parkland dedication requirements under current code. The NBG-CMU designation would also allow for residential uses. Parkland dedication would be required for any new residential units proposed at the time of subdivision or site plan, per City Code § 25-1-601. Whether fees in-lieu may be allowed in such an instance would be determined using the criteria in City Code Title 25, Article 14, as amended. If the applicant wishes to discuss parkland dedication requirements in advance of site plan or subdivision applications, please contact this reviewer: thomas.rowlinson@austintexas.gov. At the applicant’s request, PARD can provide an early determination of the parkland dedication requirements. Site Plan Site plans will be required for any new development other than single-family or duplex residential. Any new development is subject to the North Burnet/Gateway Regulating Plan. Additional comments will be made when the site plan is submitted. Transportation Assessment of required transportation mitigation, including the potential dedication of right of way and easements and participation in roadway and other multi-modal improvements, will occur at the time of site plan application. A traffic impact analysis shall be required at the time of site plan if triggered per LDC 25-6-113. B-0110 of 17 C14-2021-0173 11 Austin Strategic Mobility Plan (ASMP) calls for 130 feet of right-of-way (ROW) for BURNET RD and 90 feet of ROW for GAULT LN. Right-of-way dedication maybe required at the time of subdivision and/or site plan. 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 may be required. 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. INDEX OF EXHIBITS TO FOLLOW A: Zoning Map B.

The project is titled 11901 and 11911 Burnet Road and is approximately 3.02 acres of land, at the northeast corner of the intersection of Burnet Road and Gault Lane. The Property is in the full purpose jurisdiction of the City of Austin. The Property is within the North Burnet/Gateway (NBG) Overlay District and subject to the NBG Regulating Plan, adopted on March 12, 2009. The Property is currently zoned NBG-NP (North Burnet/Gateway – Neighborhood Plan) with a subdistrict designation of NR (Neighborhood Residential). The requested rezoning is from NBG-NP with a subdistrict designation of NR to NBG-NP with a subdistrict designation of CMU (Commercial Mixed Use). The Property is currently developed with two buildings containing financial service and professional office uses. The purpose of the rezoning is to allow for a professional office use development with a base entitlement height of 120 feet and 3:1 FAR. Due to the Property’s adjacency to an NR subdistrict, the height may not exceed 120 feet. The Property is located in the North Burnet/Gateway Neighborhood Planning Area. The Future Land Use Map (FLUM) is mixed use, attached is a memo from Maureen Meredith on September 1, 2021, confirming that a Neighborhood Plan Amendment is not required. The Traffic Impact Analysis ("TIA") has been waived until site plan, per the attached TIA determination waiver dated August 15, 2021, and executed by Amber Hutchens. 200 Lee Barton Drive, Suite 100 | Austin, Texas 78704 | 512-807-2900 | www.drennergroup.com B-0114 of 17 July 28, 2021 Page 2 Please let me know if you or your team members require additional information or have any questions.
