January 10, 2022 Applicant: Alice Glasco Case Manager: Wendy Rhodes Wendy.Rhoades@austintexas.gov DATE: TO: CC: FROM: Re: SCCNPCT unable to support C14-2021-0166 – 6424 S. Congress Ave. Re: Dear Planning Commission, From: GR-MU-CO-NP To: GR-MU-V-NP SCCNPCT We, the SCCNPCT will not be able support this development due to the affordable housing not being equal or greater to what other developments have provided to the SCCNPCT – South Congress corridor. • The developer is proposing 95 units mixed with affordable housing at 10% - 80% MFI. • Commercial (V) at ground level will benefit the developer and not the neighborhood. • The developer will build 31-47 units if the variance is not granted. • We the SCCNPCT are asking for 5%- 50%MFI & 5%-60%MFI for a total of 10 units out of 95 units. • We feel that the community is handing over a zoning request, while the developers are not willing to give anything back to the community, therefore, we are unable to support the variance request. • We support recommendations that would provide better affordable housing within the 5%- 50%MFI & 5%-60%MFI range. Thank you, Mario Cantu Chair SCCNPCT
