WOODS – ABSENT CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: None at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The Sunfield PUD was approved in 2015 and comprises of 482.5 acres. It is located east of IH 35 at the southwest corner of Turnersville Road and South Turnersville Road along the Travis and Hays County border. This PUD area is known as Sunfield Municipal Utility District No. 2. Other Sunfield Municipal Districts are located within Buda’s jurisdiction. The Sunfield PUD is adjacent to the Amazon warehouse facilities located in Buda, Texas. It is directly west of the proposed commercial and industrial areas of the PUD. There is single family and multifamily residences both to the west and south. The area to the east across South Turnersville Road is mainly undeveloped with a few single family residences on large tracts. Agricultural land is to the north of the PUD area. Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and A-1 (Aerial). There are two significant changes being proposed to the Sunfield PUD. The first proposed amendment is to revise the Land Use Plan to permit industrial uses on approximately 91 acres mainly located on the western side of the Sunfield PUD area, north of Main Street. In addition, the proposed amendment will include significant contributions to infrastructure for water improvements at the applicant’s expense, as well as Sunfield’s cost participation in a 2,000,000 gallon reservoir. The proposed amendment will not modify the PUD’s 10% affordable housing provisions of 80% MFI for owner occupied dwellings and 60% MFI for rental units. The proposed revisions would slightly reconfigure the location and massing of affordable housing units within the residential portions of the PUD. C814-2014-0083.01 Page 3 The Applicant’s letter states: The proposed amendments are sought to update the PUD to current market conditions and to provide for additional public water infrastructure, enhancing the benefit the development will provide to south Austin and southern Travis County. The chief change is to revise the Land Use Plan to permit a light industrial/warehouse use on approximately 91 acres. The Land Plan would retain commercial uses as a permitted use for this 91 acre tract, allowing flexibility as the tract is developed. Cut and fill variances are being sought to allow for the construction of warehouses of a typical size in the Austin area. PROPOSED PUD AMENDMENT Open Space and Parkland: The proposed amendment will update the provision of open space and parkland as shown in Exhibit E. Austin Energy Green Building: Part 6 A of the existing PUD ordinance will be revised to incorporate bird-friendly design criteria, light pollution reduction, and bird collision deterrence. Environmental: Part 6 B of the existing PUD ordinance will be revised so that water quality treatment will comply with the Environmental Criteria Manual (ECM) requirements in effect on the date of this ordinance. Tree Requirements: Part 6 E of the existing PUD ordinance will revise the tree requirement to be based on the entire proposed lot area rather than the street yard area plus 10 percent more trees required by regulations. Environmental: Part 6 K and L will be added to the existing PUD ordinance to provide superior stabilization measures and a minimum of 100 square feet of landscape islands for every 12 parking spaces. The landscape islands will be a minimum of 10 feet wide. Public Facilities: Part 7 C will be added to the existing PUD ordinance to reflect that the Landowner shall pay 50% of the cost of constructing a 2,000,000 gallon reservoir in the area shown on Exhibit C, with such construction to be performed by the City. The Landowner shall construct and dedicate to the City the water line improvements approved in any applicable Service Extension Request, as it may be modified from time to time with the approval of the director of Austin Water Utility. Affordable Housing Program: Part 8 A(3) of the existing PUD ordinance will be revised to remove the intention that the Affordable Ownership Units be spread across the various housing product types within the PUD. Transportation and Bicycle Plan: Part 9 G will be added to the existing PUD ordinance to require a minimum of two electric vehicles per multifamily apartment complex. C814-2014-0083.01 Page 4 Code Modification: Part 10 B(2) – Zoning Section 25-2-491 (Permitted, Conditional and Prohibited Uses) is modified to include Part (d)(i) which will establish the following Industrial uses as additional Permitted uses within the Sunfield PUD: • custom manufacturing • general warehousing and distribution • • light manufacturing limited warehousing and distribution Code Modification: Part 10 D – Environmental Section 25-8-42 (Administrative Variance) is modified to provide that the director may grant a variance from Section 25-8-341 (Cut Requirements) or Section 25-8-342 (Fill Requirements) for a cut or fill of not more than 20 feet within the area shown on Exhibit F (Environmental Exhibit). The proposed modifications to the PUD ordinance and accompanying land use plan are summarized in Attachments A and B (Applicant’s Summary Letter and Proposed Revisions to Ordinance No. 20150910-015). BASIS OF STAFF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. Per the Land Development Code, PUD district zoning was established to implement goals of preserving the natural environment, encouraging high quality, sustainable development and innovative design, and ensuring adequate public facilities and services. The City Council intends PUD district zoning to produce development that achieves these goals to a greater degree than and thus is superior to development which could occur under conventional zoning and subdivision regulations. The PUD provides a canvas for the design of a large- scale project, with the end goal to allow flexibility, and also inform and communicate the possibilities for development. 2. Zoning changes should promote an orderly and compatible relationship among land uses. The proposed PUD amendment still offers a development on the subject property that includes a set of compatible uses. It will add an industrial component to the PUD while still providing compatibility with the planned residential uses to the east.

The PUD comprises 482.5 acres in southern Travis County, bearing Travis Central Appraisal District Geographic Nos. 0464180116 and 0464180119. The original PUD ordinance was approved in 2015. The proposed amendments are sought to update the PUD to current market conditions and to provide for additional public water infrastructure, enhancing the benefit the development will provide to south Austin and southern Travis County. The chief change is to revise the Land Use Plan to permit a light industrial/warehouse use on approximately 91 acres. The property is adjacent to the Amazon facility located in Buda, Texas, and there is significant need for this type of facility located near and with ready access to IH-35. The Land Plan would retain commercial uses as a permitted use for this 91 acre tract, allowing flexibility as the tract is developed. Cut and fill variances are being sought to allow for the construction of warehouses of a typical size in the Austin area. Because light industrial has a higher permitted impervious cover requirement than the residential uses that it will replace, the applicant is seeking a small overall increase in impervious cover permitted by the original Sunfield PUD ordinance. Another significant change is to update the provisions for water improvements as set forth in recent Service Extension Requests (“SERs”). These SERs will contribute significant public infrastructure at the applicant’s expense in addition to those provided for in the existing PUD and SERs, including Sunfield’s cost participation in a 2,000,000 gallon reservoir on a site being donated by Sunfield and water line looping along the perimeter and within the interior of the PUD. The applicant is not proposing to modify the PUD’s 10% affordable housing provisions of 80% MFI for owner occupied dwellings and 60% MFI for rental units. The proposed revisions would slightly reconfigure the location and massing of affordable housing units within the J W | A U S T I N 100 Congress Avenue, Suite 1100 • Austin, Texas 78701 | www.jw.com | Member of GLOBALAW™ April 13, 2023 Page 2 residential portions of the PUD. These revisions have been formulated in consultation with Austin Habitat for Humanity, which the applicant anticipates will be the owner-occupied affordable housing provider. Sunfield anticipates transferring approximately 150 lots to Habitat for Humanity for the construction of single-family housing, which will constitute a significant source of affordable housing for south Austin and southern Travis County. The applicant is proposing no changes to the enhanced water quality regulations applicable to the PUD, nor does the applicant seek to reclassify or alter critical water quality zones established by the PUD ordinance. Although the proposed revision will reduce the residential density of the PUD, and thus the required parkland contribution, the applicant will continue to provide the amount of parkland and amenities required by the current PUD ordinance. The proposed revisions will substantially enhance the Sunfield development, and will provide significant additional public benefits, particularly through the developer-funded public water infrastructure improvements. The redlined PUD Ordinance amendment is attached, along with the updated Land Plan and other exhibits to the Ordinance. Thank you for your time and attention to this project. Sincerely, Pamela Madere Enclosures: Redlined Ordinance ATTACHMENT B ORDINANCE NO. 20150910-015___________________ AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 20150910-0015 ESTABLISHING THE SUNFIELD PUD ESTABLISHING INITIAL PERMANENT ZONING FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1901 TURNERSVILLE ROAD, AND THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF TURNERSVILLE ROAD AND SOUTH TURNERSVILLE ROAD AND CHANGING THE ZONING MAP FROM INTERIM-RURAL RESIDENCE (I-RR) DISTRICT TO PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT (PUD) COMBINING DISTRICT.
