There are five existing residential buildings on the site, which would be demolished. The applicant is proposing to build three (3) two-story residential units with habitable attics and seven (7) three-story residential units. The gross floor areas of the units range from 1,680 square feet to 2,746 square feet. All units have at least 3 bedrooms, double car garages, and private pools. The site will have a single driveway accessing Gillis Street and will provide rain gardens, landscaping, on-site bicycle parking, and public sidewalk improvements on 0.75 acres. Two waivers from compatibility setback requirements are being requested. DESCRIPTION OF WAIVERS: The applicant is requesting a waiver from § 25-2-1063(B)(1), which requires a structure setback of 25 feet from property zoned as SF-5 or more restrictive. A retaining wall, bicycle rack, driveway, two pools, and one residential unit are located within the 25-foot compatibility setback from the property line of the SF-3-NP zoning district located to the east. The retaining wall is currently located approximately 11 feet from the adjacent property line of the SF-3-NP zoning district. The applicant is also requesting a waiver from § 25-2-1067(F)(2), which requires an intensive recreational use, including a pool, to be at least 50 feet from property zoned as SF-5 or more restrictive. Two pools are located within the 50-foot compatibility setback from the property line of the SF-3-NP zoning district located to the east. The pool associated with Building 1 is located approximately 12 feet from the adjacent property line of the SF-3-NP zoning district. SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENDATION: While zoned as SF-3-NP, the adjacent property immediately to the east is developed as religious assembly 1 of 1120 use. The adjacent property to the north is zoned GR-NP and developed as automotive repair services use. Of the remaining block, one single family house is developed further north, and the rest of the block contains commercial uses. The adjacent block to the west is similar, containing multi-family apartment across Gillis Street to the west and commercial uses to the north. The blocks to the south across Casey Street contain single-family, duplex, and multi-family residential uses. Ordinance No. 20060608-098 rezoned the northern portion of the property from SF-3 to LO-MU-CO in 2006 and prohibited medical office use. The South Manchaca Neighborhood Planning Area Ordinance (Ord. 20141106-087) did not place any additional restrictions or conditional overlays on the site beyond what the LDC requires, and the NPA’s Future Land Use Map identifies this site for “Neighborhood Transition.” As stated in the neighborhood plan, “Neighborhood Transition districts in particular present an opportunity to incorporate more missing middle housing types that are compatible with the neighborhood.” The proposed development is also consistent with Imagine Austin’s goals of creating complete communities with compact and connected development that creates economically mixed and diverse neighborhoods with a range of housing options. Compatibility can be triggered by a zoning district or by a land use. For this site, compatibility setbacks are triggered by an adjacent zoning district only, as the adjacent land use is religious assembly. Based on these findings and proposed design of the project, staff recommends approval of the two requested compatibility variances. The site plan complies with all other compatibility standards, such as lighting, screening, and building heights.
