ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET TO: CS-NP DISTRICT: 1 CASE: C14-2024-0127 (City Initiated – 3408 Hibbetts Road) ADDRESS: 3408 Hibbetts Road ZONING FROM: I-RR-NP SITE AREA: approximately 0.71 acres (approximately 30,927 square feet) PROPERTY OWNER: Willie Mae Wilson & Robbie S. Jones AGENT: The Natalie Freeman & B.J. Freeman Real Estate Group, United Real Estate Austin (Natalie Freeman) CASE MANAGER: Jonathan Tomko (512) 974-1057, jonathan.tomko@austintexas.gov STAFF RECOMMEDATION: Staff recommends granting general commercial services-neighborhood plan (CS-NP) combining district zoning. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: November 12, 2024: Case is scheduled to be heard by Planning Commission. CITY COUNCIL ACTION: TBD ORDINANCE NUMBER: N/A ISSUES: This is a city-initiated rezoning application. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is currently undeveloped land just to the east of the 183 Toll Road, approximately ½ mile north of the Colorado River. It is largely surrounded by LI-NP to the north, south and east. Across the 183 Toll Road is CS-NP zoning and there are pockets of CS- and GR- base zoning along and at interchanges along the tollway. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: Zoning should allow for reasonable use of the property. Currently with an I-RR-NP the property does not have much reasonable use. The subject tract is less than 4 miles from Downtown Austin and hardly a rural residential area any longer. Granting a zoning more in line with the more intense zoning along the 183 Toll Road would allow for reasonable use of the property. C14-2024-0127 2 Change in conditions has occurred within the area indicating that there is a basis for changing the originally established zoning and/ or development restrictions for the property. The subject tract was originally zoned I-RR-NP before the construction of the 183 Toll Road. There have been substantial changes in the immediate area because of this more intense freeway development. While the subject tract is a small triangle it is not intended to be used for a transportation purpose, as indicated in the FLUM, nor is there a reason to keep it zoned I-RR-NP. This rezoning request is appropriate for the tract given the recent redevelopment and the high concentration intense zoning in this immediate area.
