The conditional overlay is to prohibit a set of land uses. For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see page 2. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: January 28, 2020 Scheduled for Planning Commission CITY COUNCIL ACTION: February 20, 2020 Scheduled for City Council ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 10B-12 C14-2019-0168 2 ISSUES There are no none issues at this time.

Adjacent to the north of the site is a property zoned multifamily – moderate density (MF-4). Across Ross Road to the east are properties zoned multifamily – low density (MF-2), and to the south are properties zoned community commercial (GR) and community commercial – conditional overlay (GR-CO). Across Elroy Road to the west are more properties zone GR and GR-CO, see Exhibit A: Zoning Map and Exhibit B: Aerial Map. This property is subject to the existing zoning ordinance (990107-F) from case number C14-98- 0054 which included a set of prohibited land uses. Staff recommends the following prohibited land uses be carried over from the previous ordinance: • Automotive Sales; • Automotive Rentals; • Exterminating Services; • Funeral Services; • Pawn Shop Services; • Drop-Off Recycling Collection Facility; • • Outdoor Entertainment Indoor Entertainment; and Staff removed Hotel-Motel and Theater from the original list and did not add any additional prohibited land uses. Last year a portion of this property (0.12 acres) was rezoned from MF-2 to GR (C14-2019-0056, Moore’s Crossing Mixed Use). BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. The property is currently zone GR and GR-CO. The applicant is requesting to add mixed use (MU) to the zoning to allow for residential uses. Their intent is to build live/work units.

PROPERTY OWNER: Colorfield, LLC (Bryan Cumby) AGENT: Alice Glasco Consulting (Alice Glasco) CASE MANAGER: Mark Graham (512-974-3574, mark.graham@austintexas.gov ) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant multifamily residence high density base district - conditional overlay– neighborhood plan (MF-6-CO-NP) combining district zoning. The conditional overlay includes limiting building height to 60 feet and Floor to Area Ratio to 1.5:1. For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments on below. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: January 28, 2020 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: February 20, 2020 ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES Neighbors are concerned about compatibility of the new buildings with existing residences and also height that could block the views of downtown or of the historic landmark Castle building from Lamar Street. Applicant is aware of neighborhood concerns and is designing the buildings to reduce impacts on nearby properties. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The site is approximately two-thirds of an acre (29,330 sq. ft.). The moderately steep sloped site fronts on Baylor Street and has foundations from a previous development. This lot is accessible from North Lamar Blvd. via West 11th Street. The subject land was rezoned in 2007 (C14-2007-0201) to multi-family residential moderate density (MF-5) with conditions. The conditions applied to the subject property and to the adjacent property to the west which were in common ownership for that rezoning. Conditions: 1) The traffic impact of the uses on the two properties were not to exceed 2000 trips per day, 2) 1 of 13B-13 C14-2019-0151 2 the total number of dwelling units on the 2 properties was not to exceed 28, and 3) the density (for both lots) was not to exceed 33.5 dwelling units per acre. The site is locally well known as (part of) the Graffiti Park and is the former site of Hope outdoor gallery which relocated to southeast Austin in 2019. The other lot of the Graffiti Park is also seeking rezoning to the MF-6 zone district. The applicant proposes to build residential condominiums on the subject lot and seeks increased Floor to Area Ratio (FAR) available in the MF-6 zone district. The proposed condos exceed the 1:1 FAR permitted in the MF-5 zone district. Applicant requests MF-6 zoning which does not limit FAR. Height is limited …

AGENT: A Glasco Consulting, (Alice Glasco) CASE MANAGER: Mark Graham (512-974-3574, mark.graham@austintexas.gov ) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant multifamily residence, high density base district– conditional overlay-neighborhood plan (MF-6-CO-NP) combining district zoning. The conditional overlay includes limiting building height to 60 feet and Floor to Area Ratio to 1.5:1. For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see cause manager comments below. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: January 28, 2020. CITY COUNCIL ACTION: February 20, 2020 ORDINANCE NUMBER ISSUES: Neighbors are concerned about compatibility of the new residential buildings with existing residences. More specifically the neighbors mention building height that blocks views of downtown or the view of the historic landmark Castle building from downtown. Applicant is aware of neighborhood concerns and have stated to staff that the buildings will be designed to reduce impacts on nearby properties. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The Castle East property at 1109 West 11th Street, adjoins the “Castle” property and is about half of Tract 1 described in the 2007 Zoning Ordinance (20071213-117) that established the MF-5- CO-NP zoning district. The subject site is approximately a half acre (0.5214 acres) (22,710 square feet) and located on the crest of the hill overlooking North Lamar Boulevard between the 1 of 12B-14 C14-2019-0152 2 historic landmark Texas Military Institute “Castle” building and the downhill property known as The Colorfield at 1006 Baylor Street. The Colorfield property owners are also applying for rezoning (C14-2019-0151) from MF-5 base zoning to MF-6 base zoning. Although the subject site is vacant, there are remnants of foundations from previous development and use. The foundations are left from a former condominium development and the graffiti on the walls remains from “Graffiti Park” activities. The lots were also known as “Hope Outdoor Gallery” which relocated to southeast Austin in 2019. Existing Conditional Overlay There are currently three zoning conditions on the property: 1) The traffic impact of the uses on the two properties (Colorfield & Castle East) were not to exceed 2000 trips per day, 2) the total number of dwelling units on the 2 properties (Colorfield and Castle East) was not to exceed 28, and 3) the density (for both lots) was not to …

AGENT: Carlson Law, PLLC (Michelle Carlson) CASE MANAGER: Mark Graham (512-974-3574, mark.graham@austintexas.gov ) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The staff recommendation is to grant limited office-mixed use-neighborhood plan (LO- MU-NP) district zoning. For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments below. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: January 28, 2020 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: February 20, 2020 ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: Parking is generally an issue in the area. The subject property has driveway access to Glenview Avenue leading to paved parking behind the building. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject 0.17 acre (7,802 square foot) lot is midblock on Glenview Avenue in a block with two story office buildings and former houses being used for offices. Austin’s Seton Medical Center is a few blocks east and Mopac highway about six blocks west. The subject land is zoned for Neighborhood Office (NO) and the 1,560 square foot building at 3405 Glenview Avenue has recently been used as a real estate services office. The proposed use of the building is for Medical Offices which are not a permitted use in the current NO zone district. Applicant requests rezoning to Limited Office (LO) zoning where medical office uses are permitted. Item B-151 of 10 C14-2019-0163 2 3405 Glenview Avenue is located within the Central West Austin Combined Neighborhood Plan (Windsor Road). The Future Land Use Map (FLUM) shows Office uses so a plan amendment is not required. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends limited office (LO-MU-NP) district zoning. 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. Limited Office district is intended for offices predominately serving neighborhood or community needs, which may be located within or adjacent to residential neighborhoods. Unlike the existing zoning, neighborhood office (NO), medical offices are allowed in the proposed LO zone district. 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. 2. Zoning should not constitute a grant of special privilege to an individual owner; Granting of the request should result in an equal treatment of similarly situated properties. The zoning map and Existing Zoning table below show …
