SUBDIVISION REVIEW SHEET CASE NO.: C8-2020-0090.0A PC DATE: August 11, 2020 SUBDIVISION NAME: Menchaca Road Apartments ADDRESS: 7731 Menchaca Road APPLICANT: CRP-GREP Elan Dawson Owner L.P. (Logan Kimble, Greystar) AGENT: BGE, Inc. (Brian Grace, P.E.) ZONING: GO-MU AREA: 10.70 acres COUNTY: Travis NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN: N/A LOTS: 1 DISTRICT: 5 WATERSHED: South Boggy Creek JURISDICTION: Full Purpose SIDEWALKS: Sidewalks will be constructed along Menchaca Rd. VARIANCES: One variance request to LDC 25-4-34, Balance of Tract. DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: The request is for the approval of Menchaca Road Apartments final plat, comprised of one lot on 10.70 acres, with a balance of tract variance. The applicant proposes to subdivide an unplatted tract into one lot for multifamily use. The variance is for a balance of tract comprised of approximately 11.39 acres on four different tracts of land per the Travis Central Appraisal District (TCAD). All tracts have frontage to a public road except for a 3.93 acre tract. However, this 3.93 acre tract is owned by the same property owner as an adjacent, 4.89 acre tract with direct frontage to a public road, which gives that property owner the ability to reasonably use and develop their properties. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The staff recommends approval of the plat and the variance. With the variance, the subdivision meets all applicable State and City of Austin Land Development Code requirements.

The property has not existed in its current configuration prior to the date which it became subject to the City’s jurisdiction over subdivision of the land. This requirement imposes an unreasonable hardship on the applicant as the original tract dates back to 1907 and was 107 acres in size. It would be impractical for the applicant to track down all potential property owners to include them in the plat, as many lots from the original tract have already been platted and developed. An exhibit is included which shows the approximate limits of the …

ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE NUMBER: C14H-2020-0069 HLC DATE: PC DATE: July 27, 2020 August 11, 2020 APPLICANTS: Rogers-Washington-Holy Cross Historic District Application HISTORIC NAME: Rogers Washington Holy Cross Historic District WATERSHED: Boggy Creek ADDRESS OF PROPOSED ZONING CHANGE: Roughly bounded by E. 21st Street on the north, Cedar Avenue on the east, E. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard on the south, and Chestnut Avenue (to E. 20th Street) on the west. See map for additional details. ZONING: All base zoning within the proposed historic district will have the HD (Historic Area Combining District) overlay added. No changes to base zoning are proposed by this application. SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the proposed zoning change to create the Rogers Washington Holy Cross Historic District. QUALIFICATIONS FOR HISTORIC DISTRICT DESIGNATION: The application for the Rogers Washington Holy Cross Historic District meets all Code requirements for the formation of a historic district. HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION ACTION: Recommend granting historic area (HD) combining district overlay to all existing base zoning for all parcels within the proposed historic district, including 1905 Chestnut Avenue as a contributing resource. Vote: 10-0. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: The proposed Rogers Washington Holy Cross Historic District is a largely intact postwar neighborhood that demonstrates the determination and success of the African American community in Austin. The neighborhood was developed by Black professionals for Black professionals. This was a major milestone at a time when many white Austinites with similar socioeconomic and community standing were buying suburban homes and moving out of the city. Racially restrictive covenants, redlining, prejudiced lenders, and other social and governmental barriers prevented African Americans from making the same move. Rogers Washington Holy Cross was a powerful symbolic response, and established a tight-knit neighborhood of movers and shakers in the Black community, Austin, and beyond. Early residents included Huston-Tillotson Chancellor John Q. Taylor King; Carnegie H. Mims, Jr., the first Ombudsman at the University of Texas; T. C. Calhoun, longtime principal of Kealing Junior High School; and numerous other educational leaders, including Willie Mae Kirk, Carnegie Harvard Mims, Sr., and Ira Poole The Kirk family lived on Maple Avenue; Ms. Kirk’s husband Lee Sr. was the first African American postal worker and certified pilot in Austin, and her son Ron served as Dallas’s first African American Mayor and an Obama cabinet member. Jimmy Snell was a City Council member who served as the first Black …

To the north of the property across W. 24th Street is Mixed Use land use. To the east and south of the property is multifamily land use and to the west is office land use. The property faces W. 24th Street which has a mix of commercial, office and residential uses. The property is located within the Downtown Activity Center and is within 1000 feet of the N. Lamar Blvd which is an Activity Corridor. The property is near public transportation options and is approximately one mile from The University of Texas campus. The Central Austin Combined Neighborhood Plan supports Mixed Use for areas that would enhance the livability of neighborhoods. Because the property is located along W. 24th Street and is an existing office use, staff believes transitioning to a mixed use building with commercial and residential uses would be appropriate. 2 Planning Commission: August 11, 2020 LAND USE DESCRIPTIONS EXISTING LAND USE ON THE PROPERTY Office - An area that provides for office uses as a transition from residential to commercial uses, or for large planned office areas. Permitted uses include business, professional, and financial offices as well as offices for individuals and non-profit organizations. 1. Encourage office-related services in areas that cannot support the traffic generation of 2. Provide for small lot office conversions as a transition from commercial to residential 3. Preserve sites for employment and office related services. 1. Appropriate for low volume streets such as collectors and minor arterials; …

Staff believes that the integrity of the district will not be substantially compromised and does not object to the change.

The application will be amended prior to the City Council hearing to remove the excluded properties from the survey forms and property inventory.

Revised staff recommendation for the Springdale Farm environmental variance request, SP-2019-0253C Critical Water SP-2019-0253C . Based M E M O R A N D U M TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Chair Kenny and Members, Austin Planning Commission Kristy Nguyen, Environmental Review Specialist Senior, Development Services Department Christopher Herrington, P.E., Environmental Officer Watershed Protection Department August 7, 2020 The purpose of this memo is to provide an update and revised staff recommendation on the request to vary critical water quality zone protections, City Code 25-8-261 ( Quality Zone Development ), for the Springdale Farms project, case on changes proposed by the applicant, staff now recommends the variance with conditions, having determined that the required findings of fact have been met. The applicant originally sought to allow construction of two fire lane hammerheads and building overhangs in the critical water quality zone. Staff initially recommended denial of the variance, having determined that the required findings of fact per City Code 25-8-41 ( Land Use Commission Variances by the Environmental Commission on June 3, 2020, and they recommended denial of the variance request. The Planning Commission considered this request at the July 14, 2020, meeting, but postponed action and asked staff to meet with the applicant to discuss possible mitigation for the variance request. Staff met with the applicant, and the applicant has subsequently revised their application to remove the southern fire lane hammerhead from the critical water quality zone and proposed additional riparian restoration. The applicant continues to propose one fire lane hammerhead and a building overhang in the critical water quality zone. Staff recognizes that these changes reduce the deviation from the applicable code requirements and provides greater overall environmental benefit without a significant probability of harmful environmental consequences and no loss in water quality. Thus, staff recommends approval of the variance with the following conditions: 1. Removal of the southern hammerhead fire lane from the critical water quality zone. ) had not been met. The variance request was considered 2.

August 7, 2020 RE: Rezoning Case: C14-2020-0042 Neighborhood Plan Amendment: NPA-2020-0014.01 Honorable Commissioners, Los Arboles Homeonwers Association supports the request for rezoning from LI-NP Limited Industrial to MF-4-NP Multifamily Residential (C14-2020-0042), and amendment of the SE Combined Neighborhood Plan (NPA-2020-0014.01) at 7135 E Ben White Blvd Service Rd Eastbound. Los Arboles is a community of 314 single family homes; the west border is on Nuckols Crossing Rd and the east border is the green space separating Los Arboles from Stassney Rd, just a little south of Burleson Rd. The area along Burleson Rd and Stassney Rd/Montopolis Dr from Hwy 71 (Ben White Blvd) to Hwy 183 has had numerous industrial complexes built in recent years. Currently TXDOT is building their headquarters off of Stassney Rd on the other side of the green space from Los Arboles. Allowing residential use at 7135 E Ben White would balance all of the industry and give workers an opportunity to live close to where they work. The Applicant has committed to affordable housing of 10% of the units at 80% MFI for a minimum of 40 years plus discounts to teachers and ABIA employees. Additionally, this residential property would include parkland and a hiking trail that would extend to a current trail and open to the public. Los Arboles supports this residential use as appropriate and useful for the community.
