ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE: C14-2023-0109 – 4323 South Congress Ave. DISTRICT: 3 ADDRESS: 4321 ½, 4323 ½, 4323 and 4329 S Congress Avenue ZONING FROM/TO: LI-PDA-NP, to change conditions of zoning, including the maximum height, maximum number of dwelling units and maximum floor-to-area ratio (FAR) SITE AREA: 9.337 acres PROPERTY OWNER: SE Austin Global Land, LLC AGENT: Drenner Group, PC (Leah M. Bojo) CASE MANAGER: Nancy Estrada (512-974-7617, nancy.estrada@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant an amendment to limited industrial services – planned development area – neighborhood plan (LI-PDA-NP) combining district zoning. The amendment would allow a maximum floor-to-area (FAR) ratio increase of 1.5:1 to 1.75:1, a maximum height increase from 60 feet to 90 feet, an increase to the number of residential units from 400 units to 620 units, and an increase in the number of residential units per acre from 42.2968 to 66.4025 as shown in Attachment A, the proposed revised ordinance. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: April 23, 2024: March 26, 2024: Approved a POSTPONEMENT REQUEST by the neighborhood to April 23, 2024 [A. AZHAR; F. MAXWELL – 2nd] (10-0), G. ANDERSON, P. HOWARD, A. PHILLIPS – ABSENT CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: 1 of 2123 C14-2023-0109 - 4323 S Congress Avenue; District 3 C14-2023-0109 Page 2 CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject rezoning area is approximately 9.33 acres and is located at the southeast corner of South Congress Avenue and Industrial Boulevard, just south of East Ben White Boulevard. Development in this area is generally characterized by warehouses containing distribution and supply companies, fabrication companies, construction sales and service businesses, and outside storage uses (LI-NP; LI-CO-NP; LI-PDA-NP). Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map), A-1 (Aerial View). Currently the property is developed with two multifamily residential buildings and the readapted Saint Elmo Public Market. There are 387 units within the existing multifamily buildings with the associated parking garage. The public market is within an existing warehouse building that is approximately 48,000 square feet and contains a cocktail lounge, bowling alley, and outdoor patio uses. As set forth in Land Development Code Section 25-2-441, the regulations of a planned development area (PDA) may modify: 1) permitted or conditional uses authorized by the base zoning district, 2) site development regulations except for compatibility standards, and 3) off-street parking or loading regulations, sign regulations or screening regulations applicable in the base district. The Applicant is proposing additional multifamily residential units with first floor pedestrian-oriented commercial space. The project will include 620 multifamily residences, 27,266 square feet of first floor retail, 8,679 square feet of restaurant use, and a 1,655 square foot brewery. The Applicant’s request is to amend the PDA to increase the maximum floor-to-area (FAR) ratio from 1.5:1 to 1.75:1, to allow a maximum height increase from 60 feet to 90 feet, to allow for an increase to the maximum number of residential units from 400 to 600 and to increase the number of residential units per acre from 42.2968 to 63.4249. However, the Applicant amended their request and is proposing to increase the maximum number of residential units from 400 units to 620 units and to increase the number of residential units per acre from 42.2968 to 66.4025. The change is based on data for the proposed mixed use residential building. No other modifications to the PDA are proposed. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. The limited industrial services (LI) district designation is for a commercial service use or limited manufacturing use generally located on a medium or large sized site. The planned development area (PDA) combining district designation provides for industrial and commercial uses in certain commercial and industrial base districts. The neighborhood plan (NP) district denotes a tract located within the boundaries of an adopted Neighborhood Plan. 2 of 2123 C14-2023-0109 - 4323 S Congress Avenue; District 3 C14-2023-0109 Page 3 The proposed zoning should allow for a reasonable use of the property. Zoning changes should promote an orderly relationship among land uses. 2. Based on the proposed LI-PDA-NP zoning to the east of the property and other surrounding LI-PDA-NP zoning on the north side of Industrial Boulevard, Staff recommends the Applicant’s request for an increase in the floor-to-area (FAR) ratio, an increase in the maximum height and number of residential units, and an increase to the number of residential units per acre. It will be consistent with the existing zoning patterns in this area. 3. There are numerous multifamily mixed use projects located all along South Congress Avenue within proximity to this site. The property will have access from South Congress Avenue, which is a Core Transit Corridor, as well as access from Industrial Boulevard. It is also within half a mile of Capital Metro bus routes and the South Congress Transit Center.

The City’s Land Development Code and Drainage Criteria Manual requires 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 in the Williamson 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. 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 preexisting approvals that preempt current water quality or Code requirements. PARD – Planning & Design Review Parkland dedication will be required for the new, increased residential uses proposed by this amendment, at the time of subdivision or site plan, per City Code § 25-1-601. Whether the requirement shall be met with fees in-lieu or dedicated land will be determined using the 7 of 2123 C14-2023-0109 - 4323 S Congress Avenue; District 3 C14-2023-0109 Page 8 criteria in City Code Title 25, Article 14, as amended. Should fees in-lieu be required, those fees shall be used toward park investments in the form of land acquisition and/or park amenities within the surrounding area, per the Parkland Dedication Operating Procedures § 14.3.11 and City Code § 25-1-607 (B)(1) & (2). The area is currently park deficient, with little opportunity for new parkland immediately onsite as development has already occurred. It is recommended that opportunities for recreation be sought in the area. 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 whether fees in-lieu of land will be allowed. Austin Transportation Department – Engineering Review This site must demonstrate compliance with the TIA memo completed with SP-2017-0210C; the TIA may require an update upon further review. The Austin Strategic Mobility Plan (ASMP) calls for 165 feet of right-of-way for South Congress Ave. It is recommended that 82.5 feet of right-of-way from the existing centerline should be dedicated for South Congress Ave. according to the Transportation Plan with the first subdivision or site plan application. [LDC 25-6-51 and 25-6-55]. The Austin Strategic Mobility Plan (ASMP) calls for 84 feet of right-of-way for Industrial Boulevard. It is recommended that 42 feet of right-of-way from the existing centerline should be dedicated for Industrial Boulevard according to the Transportation Plan with the first subdivision or site plan application.

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 site shall have separate wastewater taps, separate water meters, and their respective private water and wastewater service lines shall be positioned or located in a manner that will not cross lot lines. Based on current public infrastructure configurations, it appears that service extension requests (SER) will be required to provide service to this lot. Previous SERs approved for this site will no longer be valid given the increased project demands. For more information pertaining to the Service Extension Request process and submittal requirements contact the Austin Water SER team at ser@austintexas.gov. The water and wastewater utility plan must be reviewed and approved by Austin Water for compliance with City criteria. 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. All new development within the proposed project will be subject to City Code Chapter 25-9 and any future amendments relating to reclaimed water connections, water benchmarking, and mandatory onsite water reuse. FYI: Dedication of private streets and public utility easements does not obligate the City to approve the placement of City water and wastewater mains within same. Water and wastewater service shall be provided to each lot at their Right of Way frontage in accordance with Utility Criteria Manual 2.9.1(A).

On February 16, 2023, the zoning case was amended remove the request to reduce the minimum off- street parking required on the Property based on the City Council’s adoption of Ordinance No. 20231102- 028, on November 2, 2023, that allow the Property to be subject to the parking requirements of the City’s Code. With this amendment, we request to modify the maximum residential density in Part 3, E and F within the Property’s current LI-PDA-NP (Limited Industrial Services – Planned Development Area – Neighborhood Plan) Ordinance No. 20141120-137. The original request was to modify the maximum number of residential units from 400 to 600 units, along with allowing the respective residential units per acre from 42.2968 to 63.4249 units per acre. We request to modify the requested maximum number of residential units from 600 to 620 units and the respective residential units per acre from 63.4249 to 66.4025 units per acre. This modification comes from working through the conversion of the proposed office building into a mixed use residential building. The proposed modifications to the Property’s development standards and use restrictions summary, as well as a revised redline of the original PDA ordinance, have been revised to reflect the above request and accompany this letter. No other modifications are proposed at this time. Please let me know if you or your team members require additional information or have any questions.
