STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends Higher Density Single Family on Tract 1 and Neighborhood Mixed Use land use on Tract 2, in lieu of the applicant’s request for Mixed Use on Tract 2.

Higher Density Single Family is appropriate in this location. Staff recommends Neighborhood Mixed Use land use on Tract 2, in lieu of the applicant’s request for Mixed Use because this Tract is across the street from residential and office uses and would provide the opportunity for small-scale, neighborhood-friendly commercial, office and residential uses. The Govalle/Johnston Terrace Neighborhood Plan supports compatible and varied land uses, in addition to neighborhood-scale developments, which staff believes these land uses meet these goals. 2 Planning Commission hearing: …

For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments below. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: Scheduled for March 10, 2020 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: Scheduled for April 9, 2020 ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES While there is staff support for the requested Mixed Use zoning for the property at 2001 Guadalupe Street, there are other processes available that may provide more flexible development standards such as parking, height, floor to area ratio (FAR) and in return require participation in affordable housing, streetscape investments and adherence to design standards.

For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments on page 2. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: March 10, 2020: February 25, 2020: To grant postponement request by Neighborhood to March 10, 2020, on consent. CITY COUNCIL ACTION: March 26, 2020: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 11B-07 C14-2019-0164 2 ISSUES: No issues at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject property is located at the northwest corner of the intersection of Springdale Road and Pecan Springs Road. The 2.40 acre lot is zoned SF-3-NP and developed with one single family residence. The north half of the property is constrained by a tributary to Fort Branch Creek, including floodplain and creek buffers. West and Southwest of the property, along Pecan Springs Road, are additional SF-3-NP properties developed with single family residences. Northwest of the property are more SF-3-NP lots, and a SF-6-CO-NP parcel. These properties are developed with single family residences. Immediately north of the property are tracts zoned GR-MU-CO-NP that include townhouse/condominium and limited retail land uses. Across Springdale Road to the east is undeveloped land zoned SF-6-NP and land zoned GR-CO-NP that contains religious assembly land use. Please see Exhibits A, B, and C—Zoning Map, Aerial Exhibit, and Environmental Exhibit. Staff supports the Applicant’s request of SF-6-NP zoning. The environmental constraints of the property impact the option of subdividing and developing the site with single family residences. SF-6 zoning allows clustering of residential units to avoid the environmental features. SF-6 zoning has been approved for properties northwest and east; the GR-MU-CO- NP property immediately of the site is developed with townhouse/condominium land use. Staff has received correspondence regarding the rezoning request. Please see Exhibit D- Correspondence. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The rezoning should be consistent with the policies and principles adopted by the City Council or Planning Commission. The Strategic Housing Blueprint promotes a mix of housing types and densities across the city. Zoning should promote a transition between adjacent and nearby zoning districts, 2. land uses, and development intensities. Immediately north of the property are tracts zoned GR-MU-CO-NP that include townhouse/condominium and limited retail …

Rivera) CASE MANAGER: Wendy Rhoades (512-974-7719, wendy.rhoades@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant general commercial services – mixed use – vertical mixed use building – neighborhood plan (CS-MU-V-NP) combining district zoning. If the rezoning request is granted, it is recommended that 65 feet of right-of-way from the existing centerline be dedicated for South Congress Avenue according to the Transportation Plan prior to Third Reading of the ordinance at City Council.

CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject undeveloped lot is located on South Congress Avenue, is undeveloped and has had general commercial services – mixed use – neighborhood plan (CS-MU-NP) zoning since Council approved the West Congress Neighborhood Plan rezonings in August 2005. There are retail and various commercial services, auto-related uses and apartments along both sides of Congress Avenue in the vicinity (CS-MU-NP; CS-MU-CO-NP/MF-6-CO-NP).

Planning Commission amendment to Downtown Austin Plan LDC Amendment from Council passed on second reading entitled “Downtown: Northwest District” a. Density Bonus: 1. Boundaries: South of 15th Street, in areas that were ineligible for the Downtown Density Bonus in the Downtown Austin Plan; North of 15th Street, in areas that the Downtown Austin Plan designated as eligible for the Downtown Density Bonus with reduced maximum bonus entitlements (height limits of 90, 100, or 120 feet, and FAR caps of 3:1, 4:1, or 5:1). 2. FAR: For the purpose of the density bonus, above-ground parking will count towards FAR. The maximum allowable FAR available for a property under the Northwest District Density Bonus will depend on the base zoning as follows: CC-40 3.0 CC-60 4.5 CC-80 7.5 CC-120 7.5 3. Height: Properties in the Northwest District south of 15th Street are eligible for additional height up to 50% greater than the height allowed by base zoning, but only for the purposes of improved design or compatibility: for example, to protect trees, save historic building facades, or reproduce original building set-backs. Above-ground parking is not permitted in projects that utilize bonus height. 4. Fifteenth Street: On the south side of Fifteenth Street, rezone properties currently zoned CC to CC-120 and make them eligible for the Northwest District Density Bonus. b. Compatibility standards A, B, and C described in 23-3C-10080(E) shall not apply to properties south of 15th Street. However, compatibility standards would still apply for properties north of 15th St. c. FAR and Height Limits: 1. For the area along the west side of Nueces, from a half-block north of 15th up to MLK, the height limit should remain 90’, but the FAR cap should be raised to 7:1; 2. For the area along the east side of Nueces, from a half-block north of 15th up to 18th, the height limit should be raised to 140’, and the FAR cap should be raised to 8:1; E-011 of 2 3. The third area, much of which is along San Antonio, should have unlimited height and FAR, like the other areas to the east. d. Setbacks: If the smallest existing front setback on the blockface is smaller than the setback shown, the minimum required front setback will be equal to the smallest existing front setback on that blockface. The maximum front setbacks in the Northwest District shall be the setbacks described in …

Dear Mr. Guernsey As the local developer and authorized agent of the owner of the Austin Green Project, GroundWork is respectfully providing this Planned Unit Development (PUD) Update 5 submittal for Austin Green. Primarily located at the intersection of SH-130 and Harold Green Road, this 2,126.25-acre property and its natural resources have been integral to growth in the region for over sixty years. The entire property is currently a sand and gravel mining site; the property’s future is to realize the vision of Imagine Austin. We want to make the land’s next chapter as important to shaping our city’s future as its previous chapter was in building our city. Our vision is to collaborate with the stakeholders to create a world-class community reflecting both the natural assets of the site and the needs of the Austin-area market, while being consistent with the values of Imagine Austin. We want to achieve the following goals for our community: • • • Create a model project that results in a great live, work, play community and enhances ecological systems while the site transitions from mining to its next use. Tailor preparation of the land to its next use - for community development or open space. Capitalize on the site’s location, access and visibility to achieve long term goals that the City has outlined in Imagine Austin, including providing: o Attainable and diverse housing; o Create job opportunities where people live to reduce dependency on overburdened transportation systems; and o Pursue a compact development strategy that provides substantial future tax base to help the city fund its operations. 1711 E Cesar Chavez Street.
