ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET DISTRICT: 9 TO: DMU CASE: C14-2022-0080 – 607 West 14th Street ZONING FROM: GO ADDRESS: 607 West 14th Street SITE AREA: 0.1920 acres (8,364 square feet) PROPERTY OWNER: HKKN Holdings, LLC (Joe Newberry) AGENT: Metcalfe Wolff Stuart and Williams, LLP (Michele Rogerson Lynch) CASE MANAGER: Wendy Rhoades, wendy.rhoades@austintexas.gov, (512) 974-7719 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant downtown mixed use – conditional overlay (DMU-CO) combining district zoning. The proposed Conditional Overlay limits building height to 60 feet. For a summary of the basis of Staff’s recommendation, please see pages 2-3 of this report. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: September 13, 2022: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: October 13, 2022: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: The Applicant is in agreement with the Staff recommendation. The subject site was previously developed with an approximately 2,034 square foot office building. However, in March 2021, the building was severely damaged in a fire. According to the Applicant, the building was barricaded from entry and given its condition, the property owner decided to apply for a permit to demolish the structure concurrently with the requested rezoning application. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject rezoning area consists of a portion of one platted lot, which is located south of West 14th Street, between Rio Grande Street and Nueces Street. The property proposed for 1 of 134C14-2022-0080 Page 2 rezoning is a 0.192-acre site currently zoned as general office (GO), representing an office use that serves community or citywide needs, such as medical or professional offices. The subject site is not located within a documented floodplain or within a creek buffer. The property is rectangular in shape. The property was formerly developed with an approximate 2,034 square foot office building, but was severely damaged in a fire, and subsequently completed demolition under an approved permit (2021-178121 BP). A site plan application has been filed for a three-story (43 foot tall), 8,304 square foot office building with associated parking and utility improvements (SP-2022-0315C), and a building permit application is expected to be filed in the near future. A parking lot and trees remain on site. The property is accessible via either 14th Street or an alley to the rear (south) of the site. There are existing office uses at the properties immediately in every direction from the subject site, all of which are zoned GO. However, there are properties zoned DMU-CO a little further to the east, southeast, and southwest. It should also be noted that the Downtown Austin Plan calls for changing the zoning of the subject site to DMU-60. The plan also includes recommendations to replace single use zoning districts, including GO, with DMU zoning designations over time to foster a diverse mixture of land uses appropriate for the downtown urban core. An excerpt from Page 79 of the plan, which has been amended by the applicant to clearly show the location of the site, but is otherwise unaltered, has been included as an attachment to this report to show the proposed downtown zoning changes approved in the Downtown Austin Plan. Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map), A-1 (Aerial Exhibit), and A-2 (Proposed Downtown Zoning Changes – Applicant’s Graphic) for further information. The Applicant has requested downtown mixed use (DMU) district zoning. However, Staff determined that given the land use recommendation identified in the Downtown Austin Plan, a Conditional Overlay to restrict the maximum building height seemed warranted. Staff consulted with the Applicant, and the Applicant is in agreement with DMU-CO to include the maximum height restriction. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. The Downtown Mixed Use (DMU) district is intended for use located on the periphery of an area that is zoned Central Business District (CBD). The DMU district designation may be applied to a development that includes any combination of office retail, commercial, and residential uses, as long as the development is also compatible with the downtown area. However, a DMU designation with an intermediate density may also be appropriate to create a transition area between the downtown area and surrounding districts or for an area in which the established central business district may expand in the future. The Conditional Overlay (CO) combining district may be applied in combination with any base district. The district is intended to provide flexible and adaptable use or site development regulations by requiring standards tailored to individual properties. 2 of 134C14-2022-0080 Page 3 Zoning changes should promote compatibility with adjacent and nearby uses. The subject site is located on the periphery of the established central business district and in an area where the downtown core may expand in the future, as illustrated by the presence of many other DMU-CO-zoned properties within the vicinity. The Conditional Overlay would also keep the proposal consistent with the recommendations laid out in the Downtown Austin Plan. As such, the proposal would be consistent with the purpose statement of the DMU-CO zoning district. 2. The requested DMU zoning district would allow for a broad range of commercial and residential uses to be conducted on-site by right. The Applicant’s proposed office use would be compatible with the DMU district, as well as the other properties in the immediate area of the subject site. Staff recommends approval of the Applicant’s request because the location is appropriate for a mixed use designation within the downtown area and the proposal would be consistent with the adopted Downtown Austin Plan. As such, the proposal would be compatible with the adjacent and nearby uses, as well as the city’s long-term vision for the neighborhood.

EXISTING STREET CHARACTERISTICS: NAME ASMP Existing ROW Existing Pavement Sidewalks Bicycle Route Classification ASMP Required ROW 82’ 39’ Yes N/A Capital Metro (within ¼ mile) Yes 80’ Level 1 West 14th Street ADDITIONAL STAFF COMMENTS: Drainage The developer is required to submit a pre- and post-development drainage analysis at the subdivision and site plan stage of the development process. The City’s Land Development Code and Drainage Criteria Manual require that the Applicant demonstrate through engineering analysis that the proposed development will have no identifiable adverse impact on surrounding properties. Environmental The site is not located over the Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone. The site is located in the Shoal Creek Watershed of the Colorado River Basin, which is classified as an Urban Watershed by Chapter 25-8 of the City's Land Development Code. It is in the Desired Development Zone. Zoning district impervious cover limits apply in the Urban Watershed classification. According to floodplain maps there is no floodplain within or adjacent to the project location. According to floodplain maps there is not a 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. 5 of 134C14-2022-0080 Page 6 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. This site is required to provide on-site water quality controls (or payment in lieu of) for all development and/or redevelopment when 8,000 square feet cumulative is exceeded, and on- site control for the two-year storm. Impervious Cover The maximum impervious cover allowed by the CBD zoning district is 100% based on the zoning district regulations. PARD – Planning & Design Review There are currently no parkland requirements for uses other than residential and hotel. Given that the application is for office, there may not be parkland dedication requirements or parkland impacts at the time of site plan or subdivision. However, the City Council is currently proposing the creation of parkland dedication requirements for commercial uses at the time of site plan and subdivision, which may become applicable to this project in the future. This potential future development may be required to pay a fee in-lieu for the office use. Site Plan and Compatibility Standards Site plans will be required for any new development other than single-family, two-family or duplex residential. Any development which occurs in an SF-6 or less restrictive zoning district which is located 540 feet or less from property in an SF-5 or more restrictive zoning district will be subject to compatibility development regulations. Any new development is subject to Subchapter E. Design Standards and Mixed Use. Additional comments will be made when the site plan is submitted. Austin Transportation Department – Engineering Review 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. Austin 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 6 of 134C14-2022-0080 Page 7 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.

Dear Mr. Rusthoven: Re: Application for Rezoning; 0.19 acres located at 607 W. 14th Street (the As representatives of the owner of the above stated Property we respectfully submit the attached Application for Rezoning. The Property is located at 607 W. 14th Street (see Location Map attached) and is zoned General Office (GO). The Application for Rezoning requests to rezone the Property to Downtown Mixed Use (DMU). The property had a building that was used as an office us before it got burned down. The Property is within the Downtown Austin Plan. Surrounding zoning includes Downtown Mixed Use (DMU), Neighborhood Commercial (LR), and General Office (GO). One of the recommendations in the Downtown Plan is to replace single-use zoning districts with downtown mixed-use zoning designations to ensure a diverse and pedestrian-friendly urban district. I is recommended that DMU-60 should replace those with a 60-foot heigh limit (CS, GO, MF-5, MF-6). This property in the proposed downtown zoning changes is recommended to be DMU-60 (see attached exhibit). If you have any questions about this Application for Rezoning or need additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me at your convenience. Thank you for your time and attention to this project. Very truly yours, Michele Rogerson Lynch 221 W. 6th Street, Suite 1300, Austin, TX 78701 • 512.404.2200 • fax 512.404.2245 • www.mwswtexas.com 10 of 134 ZONING EXHIBIT 11 of 134W 15th St. ACC Capitol 12th St. Waterloo Park . e v A t s e W . t S e d n a r G o R i . t S s e c e u N Wooldridge Sq. i . t S o n o t n A n a S . t S e p u a d a u G l . t S a c a v a L . t S o d a r o o C l . e v A s s e r g n o C . t S s o z a r B E 9th St. E 8th St. . t S y t i n i r T . t S s e h c e N . t S r e v R d e R i 5 3 H I UT MLK Blvd. . t S o t n i c a J n a S E 11th St. E 10th St. E 7th St. E 6th St. E 5th St. E 4th St. E 3rd St. E 2nd St. Cesar Chavez UT . t S e n b a S i Brush Sq.

Your application indicates that you are requesting DMU zoning. Staff is supportive of DMU zoning, but only with a CO imposing a 60-foot maximum height limit. This would reflect the recommendations made in the Downtown Austin Plan, as well as the other properties that have been rezoned to DMU-CO in the vicinity in recent years. Can you please confirm whether you would agree to the DMU-CO zoning with a 60-foot height limit? My assumption is that this will not be an issue, since you highlighted the DMU-60 recommendation in your own summary letter, but I still want to check with you to be sure. 13 of 134
