M E M O R A N D U M To: Chair Kenny and Members of the Planning Commission From: Jerry Rusthoven, Assistant Director/Interim Lead Planning and Zoning Department Date: June 4, 2020 Subject: Kramer Lane Service Center In 1965 the City of Austin purchased a 33.56 acre tract for municipal use that is now known at the Kramer Lane Service Center. The property was purchased using bond funds from both the electric utility department and water and wastewater utility. In 2013 Austin Energy transferred 2,800 acres in Webberville to Austin Water Department in exchange for full use and control of this site. Austin Energy currently has over 200 employees at the site and uses the site for offices, a training yard, warehouse space, a laydown yard and parking for utility vehicles. In addition to Austin Energy the site is also used by the Fleet, Public Works and Watershed Protection Departments. In 2007 the City Council approved the North Burnet/Gateway (NBG) Plan and the related regulating plan in 2009. The area within the NBG Plan is redeveloping as envisioned, including the recently approved Broadmoor project, a six million square foot redevelopment, as well as the nearby Domain project. Growth in this area will exceed electric capacity by 2023. Feeders and transformers at substations in the surrounding area are reaching capacity and limited capacity for electrical switching could result in extended power outages that will worsen over time. The result is Austin Energy needs a new substation to serve the and future growth in the region. The Kramer Lane Service Center property is optimally located to serve local electrical need and reduce customer costs to obtain new electric service by avoiding the need to purchase additional nearby high value land; and avoiding public disruption caused by construction of new transmissions lines, transmission towers and overhead distribution lines because these are located adjacent to the site. Staff is requesting the initiation of an amendment the North Burnet / Gateway Regulating Plan in the Code to allow certain civic uses that will allow Austin Energy to continue the existing use of the site as well as the construction of a new substation at the rear of the property.

From: Amanda Willard Sent: Friday, June 05, 2020 1:16 AM To: Chaffin, Heather <Heather.Chaffin@austintexas.gov> Cc: Subject: C14-2020-0022 5010 & 5102 Heflin Lane *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** This email is written in protest of the requested zoning change from SF-4A-NP to SF-6-NP. Our area is already experiencing the adverse impact of increased development. While COVID-19 has temporarily reduced traffic across our city, under normal circumstances, the congestion on Webberville and Heflin during peak times has increased to a level that impacts my family's commute times and complicates navigating our own neighborhood. For example, attempting to turn north from Heflin Lane onto Webberville is challenge. Traffic traveling south on Webberville travels at a speed greater than the posted limit (even with the speed bumps in place) and any car parked in the bike lane along Webberville creates a situation that makes it too dangerous to walk around my own neighborhood with my children at certain times of the day. Any increase in density will strain our already congested roadways. Of substantial concern, the increased impervious cover will exacerbate flooding in our neighborhood. Since purchasing our home in 2012, the number of times our house has flooded has increased steadily as development in the area has increased. We have already replaced floors and had to have a professional install an expensive drainage system for our house. I recognize that some change is inevitable. When evaluating what changes are reasonable, I ask that you please keep in mind that our wonderful neighborhood still has homes occupied by the original owners who purchased their properties in the 60’s and have already experienced substantial changes. To create a situation that forces any of our neighbors to make costly upgrades to their properties to mitigate the impact of surrounding developments or to be forced to sale their homes because they can not afford the upgrades, is not reasonable. The increased density of proposed projects like the one at MLK & Tannehill and directly across the street at the intersection of Webberville and Stone Gate will make it impossible to safely navigate traffic and difficult for some of us to maintain our homes. Each one of these projects, if considered individually, may seem reasonable but together and combined with all of the rapid development East Austin is experiencing, will negatively impact the safety, functionality and affordability of the Stone Gate neighborhood. I appreciate you seriously …
