Please see Exhibit A submitted with the Summary Letter. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is approximately 0.59 acres, is developed with St. Luke United Methodist Church with surface parking and associated infrastructure. The existing zoning for the property is multifamily residence (medium density) – neighborhood plan (MF-3-NP) combined district zoning. There is access to West 14th Street (level 1) and West Lynn Street (level 2). This site is in the Old West Austin Neighborhood Plan and is characterized as mixed use. The surrounding area has several office and commercial uses along West Lynn Street (CS-MU-CO-NP) along with various residential types such as single family residential and multifamily residential (SF-3-NP; MF-3-NP). Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and B (Aerial View). The applicant is requesting the general commercial services - mixed use - conditional overlay - neighborhood plan (CS-MU-CO-NP) combined district zoning for Tract 1 (0.262 acres) and neighborhood commercial - mixed use - conditional overlay - neighborhood plan (LR-MU- CO-NP) combined district zoning for Tract 2 (0.324 acres). The Conditional Overlay has a list of prohibited uses, per tract, and restricts Tract One to LR site development regulations with the exception of the 500 square foot outdoor seating area limitation under Section 25-2- 587(D)(3) of the City Land Development Code. The proposed development is for the adaptive reuse of the existing church structure with a First Light Books that will serve coffee, wine and light fare (Please refer to Exhibit C - Applicant’s Summary Letter). 10 C14-2025-0109 - West Lynn Church Site; District 93 of 17 C14-2025-0109 4 Per the comprehensive plan review comments, this site meets eight (8) of the Imagine Austin Decision Guidelines. The site is in the Imagine Austin Growth Concept Map, more specifically it is 0.4 miles to Lamar Boulevard Activity Center. There is a Cap Metro bus stop 0.12 miles away on Enfield Road and is within 0.5 miles from food access, education facilities goods and services, provides connectivity to healthy living for the property and a mix of residential and non-industrial uses. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. Tract 1: CS-MU-CO-NP The general commercial services district is intended predominately for commercial and industrial activities of a service nature having operating characteristics or traffic service requirements generally incompatible with residential environments. The mixed use combining district is intended for combination with selected base districts, in order to permit any combination of office, retail, commercial, and residential uses within a single development. The conditional overlay combining district may be applied in combination with any base district. The district is intended to provide flexible and adaptable use or site development regulations by requiring standards tailored to individual properties. The neighborhood plan district denotes a tract located within the boundaries of an adopted Neighborhood Plan. Tract 2: LR-MU-CO-NP The neighborhood commercial district is intended for neighborhood shopping facilities which provide limited business service and office facilities predominately for the convenience of residents of the neighborhood. The mixed use combining district is intended for combination with selected base districts, in order to permit any combination of office, retail, commercial, and residential uses within a single development. The conditional overlay combining district may be applied in combination with any base district. The district is intended to provide flexible and adaptable use or site development regulations by requiring standards tailored to individual properties. The neighborhood plan district denotes a tract located within the boundaries of an adopted Neighborhood Plan. 2. Zoning changes should promote a balance of intensities and densities. The staff recommendation of CS-MU-CO-NP for Tract 1 and LR-MU-CO-NP for Tract 2 will allow for the proposed commercial development while providing a balance of intensities. The transition from general commercial services, at the intersection of West 14th and West Lynn Street to the neighborhood commercial district would be a step down in intensity of the commercial base zoning districts. 10 C14-2025-0109 - West Lynn Church Site; District 94 of 17 C14-2025-0109 5 3. The proposed zoning should promote consistency and orderly planning. While Old West Austin Neighborhood Planning Area does not have a future land use map (FLUM) the West Lynn Street corridor from West 10th Street to West 14th Street has a commercial presence that steps down to multifamily zonings or single family zonings. This rezoning would promote consistency with the area and past rezonings along West Lynn Street.
