ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET DISTRICT: 3 TO: CS-DB90-NP CASE: C14-2024-0015 ZONING FROM: SF-3-NP & GR-NP ADDRESS: 6202, 6204 Caddie Street; 6205, 6211, 6215 Fairway Street; 1600, 1604, 1606, 1608, 1610, 1612, and 1614 Montopolis Drive SITE AREA: 1.92 acres (83,905 sq. ft.) PROPERTY OWNER: 3rd Angle Developments LLC & 1614 Montopolis LLC (Ben S. Cobos) AGENT: Thrower Design, LLC (Ron Thrower & Victoria Haase) CASE MANAGER: Cynthia Hadri 512-974-7620, Cynthia.hadri@austintexas.gov STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant community commercial – density bonus 90 - neighborhood plan (GR-DB90-NP) combined district zoning. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: July 9, 2024: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: In December 2023, Ordinance No. 20220609-080, Ordinance No. 20221201-056 and Ordinance No. 20221201-055 were invalidated. On March 11, 2024, Ordinance No. 20240229-073, was enacted to create the “DB90” combining district, which amended City Code Title 25 (Land Development) to create a new zoning district for a density bonus program that grants 30 feet in height above the base zoning district, to a maximum of 90 feet, and modifies site development regulations including compatibility standards. Subsequently, the applicant submitted this new rezoning application to request the -DB90 combining district. C14-2024-0015 Page 2 CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is 1.92 acres, undeveloped, has frontage on Montopolis Drive (level 3), Caddies Street (level 1) and Fairway Street (level 1). The site has two zonings associated with it, community commercial-neighborhood plan (GR-NP) and family residences- neighborhood plan (SF_3-NP). The property has townhomes, Austin Youth Development Building and a Dollar Tree (MF-2-NP, P-NP, GR-NP) to the north. There are also business commercial buildings and single family residential (SF-3-NP, GR-NP). To the east are multifamily residential and undeveloped land (ERC). There closest bus stop is on the corner of Caddie Street and Montopolis Drive, right on the property. The site is mostly in the Riverside Station Imagine Austin Corridor, making this an ideal location to add housing. Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and B (Aerial View). The applicant is requesting general commercial-density bonus 90-neighborhood plan (CS-DB90-NP) combining district for a proposed development that would include multi- family units requiring an affordable component. A building constructed under density bonus 90 (DB90) standards allows for a mix of residential uses and commercial uses, and the result is typically retail, restaurants and offices on the ground floor, and residential units on upper levels. The overall project would consist of approximately 76 residential units and will be seeking a modification for the commercial requirement on the Caddie Street Frontage. Please refer to Exhibit C (Applicant’s Summary Letter). A development utilizing the “density bonus 90” incentives is permitted with a base GR district and must include an affordability component for residential use in order to obtain incentives, including height maximum of 90 feet in the GR district (60 feet base plus 30 feet incentive) and relaxation of development and compatibility standards, such as FAR, setbacks and building coverage. There are several methods of satisfying DB90 development affordability requirements. There are two options for projects including rental units: 1) a minimum of 12% of the rental units in a building are affordable for a 40-year period for households earning 60% or less than the Austin-Round Rock Metropolitan Statistical Area MFI; or 2) a minimum of 10% of the rental units are affordable for a 40-year period as described above for households earning 50% or less MFI. There are two options of satisfying DB90 development affordability requirements which include ownership units: 1) a minimum of 12% of the rental units in a building are affordable for a 40-year period for households earning 80% or less than the Austin-Round Rock Metropolitan Statistical Area MFI; or 2) an in-lieu-fee payment to the Housing Trust Fund, equivalent to the required percentage of the total residential units, including the mix of bedrooms required, at the rate set in the fee schedule at the time of final site plan submission. C14-2024-0015 Page 3 BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The rezoning should be consistent with the policies and principles adopted by the City Council. sought. City Council has provided policy and direction for having more residential density and increased affordability, as well as incentivizing vertical mixed use buildings throughout the City. This request is consistent with the “VMU2” option and Ordinance No. 20240229-073, which replaced the invalidated “VMU2” option. 2. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district The Community Commercial district is intended for office and commercial uses serving neighborhood and community needs, including both unified shopping centers and individually developed commercial sites, and typically requiring locations accessible from major traffic ways. The DB90 (DB90) combining district, in exchange for providing affordable housing units and in combination with commercial base zoning districts, allows a mixture of office, retail, commercial, and residential uses with modifications of compatibility standards and site development regulations including increased building height. The Neighborhood Plan district denotes a tract located within the boundaries of an adopted Neighborhood Plan. 3. Zoning should promote clearly-identified community goals, such as creating employment opportunities or providing for affordable housing. This rezoning authorizes a property to participate in a voluntary density bonus or incentive program that provides modifications to development regulations or other regulatory-related benefits in exchange for community benefits. In exchange for increased development potential, the development is required to comply with affordable housing requirements.

Pursuant to Ordinance 20240229-073, adopted by the Austin City Council on February 29, 2024, with an effective date of March 11, 2024, the City of Austin is directing additional housing development in areas of Austin where appropriate through the DB90 Overlay. Our position is that this project meets the requirements to receive the DB90 Overlay and thus, the amended request is for CS-DB90-NP zoning. Further, under Section 25-2-652(F)(3) within the DB90 Ordinance, there is a Mix of Uses requirement related to DB90 projects. While a mix of uses certainly makes for an active street, not all properties can or should have a mix of uses for varying reasons. Pursuant to Section 25- 2-652(F)(3)(e), the rezoning to add DB90 can modify Section 25-2-652(F)(3)(b) that requires the Pedestrian Oriented uses along certain Principal Streets. In this case, the project is located on 3 Urban Roadways – Montopolis Drive, Fairview Street, and Caddie Street, all of which are qualifying Principal Roadways to waive the requirement and we request that the requirement be waived for the frontage along Caddie Street, as this street is mirrored with single-family use only along the southern side of the street.

Even so, we met with the NPCT about this case on October 30, 2023, and we agreed to disagree very quickly and respectfully. The NPCT made it very clear that an upzoning of any SF-3 zoned lands will never be supported. The DB90 overlay recently added to the request for rezoning will ensure that a development must include affordable units, something that was not required with the original request. If the NPCT’s position has changed, please let me know. Thank you, Victoria Haase www.throwerdesign.com 512-998-5900 Cell 512-476-4456 Office Mail: P.O.

The C14-2024-0015 (6202 6204 Caddie Street; 1600, 1604, 1606, 16098, 1610, 1612, and 1614 Montopolis Drive; 6205, 6211, 6215, Fairway Street) has not been reviewed by the Montopolis Neighborhood Plan Contact Team (MNPCT). The MNPCT meets the last Monday of each month. Our next scheduled meeting is June 24th, 2024. We are requesting that the case be postponed until July 23rd, 2024. Several of the Contact Team members are on vacation during the first two weeks in July. The MNPCT respectfully request that the developer present his plan for the present tract of land zoned Single Family and Civic on July 23rd Contact Team Meeting at 6 pm, at the Montopolis Recreation Community Center, 1200 Montopolis Drive. The original request for this land was for Mix Use designation, we have received notice that the new request is CS-BD90-NP. This is a new designation for the Montopolis planning area. Also, we need to know if CS-DB90-NP falls under the designation of Mix Use. Thank you in advance for your assistance. Susana Almanza, President MNPCT -- PODER P.O.
