9/9/22 C20-2022-005a ORDINANCE AMENDMENT REVIEW SHEET Amendment: C20-2022-005a, Land Development Code Amendments Description: Consider an ordinance regarding amendments to Title 25 related to environmental protection and landscape requirements. Proposed Language: Draft language is included as Attachment A. Summary of proposed code changes: A summary of the proposed code changes is included as Attachment B. Background: This ordinance responds to Council Resolution No. 20220609-061, which initiated Land Development Code amendments related to environmental, drainage, and landscape requirements. The resolution directed staff to present most of the initiated amendments to Council for consideration by September 15, 2022. The initiated code amendments and a summary of the staff proposal is provided below: 1. Establish criteria that prioritize when green stormwater methods should be required or incentivized over conventional stormwater controls; The proposed code amendments would require most sites to use green stormwater infrastructure, or GSI, to meet water quality treatment requirements. This amendment was previously proposed and reviewed as part of the Land Development Code (LDC) Revision. Under current code, many sites meet water quality treatment requirements by building a sedimentation/filtration pond. Sedimentation/filtration devices provide some water quality benefits by filtering polluted runoff and helping control stream-channel erosion, but they do not significantly address other important ancillary goals such as supporting on-site vegetation, increasing rainwater infiltration, and reducing potable water consumption. Requiring most sites to use GSI instead of conventional grey stormwater infrastructure will provide myriad benefits, including stormwater infiltration, soil health, wildlife habitat, urban heat island mitigation, water conservation, aesthetic value, and other ecosystem services. GSI also provides enhanced water quality benefits compared to sedimentation/filtration devices, including better removal of nutrients from stormwater and further reductions in erosive flows. The proposed code amendments would allow developments to choose from a variety of green stormwater controls, including biofiltration ponds, rain gardens, rainwater harvesting systems, porous pavement, and retention-irrigation systems (which can be built in conjunction with green roofs). All of these systems beneficially use rainwater to infiltrate and/or offset potable water. Staff also proposes to increase the beneficial use benefits of these controls over time through improvements to the design criteria in the Environmental Criteria Manual. 1 9/9/22 C20-2022-005a The proposed code amendments provide some exceptions from the GSI requirement, allowing conventional controls to be used for sites with more than 90 percent impervious cover, regional ponds, difficult site conditions, and “hot-spot” land uses with highly contaminated runoff (e.g., auto repair facilities).

The properties are located within the boundaries of the Windsor Park Neighborhood Planning Area. Prior to September, members of the contact team attended the community meetings for the proposed project held by the City of Austin on June 13, 2022, and June 21, 2022. The WPNPCT also held meetings with the applicant and surrounding neighbors on April 11, 2022; July 11, 2022; and August 8, 2022. The feedback provided by the surrounding neighbors at these meetings was taken into consideration by the contact team. By a vote of 6-4-2, the WPNPCT recommends the neighborhood plan amendment request for Mixed Use and the rezoning request for GR-V-MU-CO. The contact team appreciates the applicant’s amended rezoning request for GR instead of CS and the CO restricting the land uses on the site to those allowed under current MF-3 and NO-MU zoning. However, the surrounding neighbors and several members of the contact team raised considerable concerns about the minimum interior and rear yard setbacks. For these reasons, we ask that the Planning Commission explores options with the applicant to achieve the best transition and buffer possible between the proposed project and the adjacent residential properties. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you, Rodney E. Ahart, Chair Windsor Park Neighborhood Plan Contact Team

The conditional overlay will maintain the prohibition on Adult Oriented Businesses, Convenience Storage and Vehicle Storage uses on the property. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: July 26, 2022: Approved staff's recommendation of CS-MU-V-CO-NP zoning by consent (9-0, Commissioners C. Hempel, J. Mushtaler, S. Praxis and J. Shieh-absent). August 23, 2022 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: September 1, 2022 ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 317 C14-2022-0060 ISSUES: This case has been re-notified for the August 23, 2022 Planning Commission meeting due to a notification error. The previous Notice of Public Hearing for the July 26, 2022 Planning Commission meeting included an incorrect zoning case map. At this time, the applicant has not proposed a restrictive covenant amendment/termination with this rezoning request. Therefore, the TIA recommendations adopted through the public restrictive covenant in zoning cases C14-2018-0108 and C14-2018-0109 will remain for this property. 2 CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is an almost one acre (0.941 acre) undeveloped lot located at the southeast corner of East Ben White Boulevard and Caseybridge Court. This tract of land was zoned CS-MU-CO-NP during the Southeast Combined Neighborhood Plan Rezonings in October 2002 through case C14-02-0128.03 (please see Ordinance No. 021010-12c – Exhibit D). The property was rezoned in 2018 through case C14-2018-0109 to remove a 2,000 vehicle trip per day limitation. The current zoning ordinance for this property prohibits adult oriented businesses, convenience storage and vehicle storage uses on the site (please see Ordinance No.20190509-036 – Exhibit E). There is a restrictive covenant associated with cases C14-2018-0108 and C14-2018-0109 that encompasses TIA recommendations for these properties (please see Public Restrictive Covenant – Exhibit F). Surrounding uses include a single-family residence and undeveloped property to the east (zoned LI-NP), a hotel and an undeveloped lot and Carson Creek to the south (zoned CS-MU- CO-NP), and an undeveloped lot and manufactured home sales business to the west (zoned CS-MU-CO-NP; LI-CO-NP). In this rezoning request, the applicant is asking to add …

CASE MANAGER: Sherri Sirwaitis (512-974-3057, sherri.sirwaitis@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the proposed termination of the public restrictive covenant. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: August 23, 2022 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 1 of 1111 ISSUES: N/A DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: The applicant is requesting to terminate/delete a public restrictive covenant that was recorded in 1982 on Lot 2 of the Westover Hills Plaza subdivision and associated with zoning site plan case C14r-82-016 (Please see Applicant’s Request Letter – Exhibit C). This covenant places restrictions on the number of stories, landscaping, reflectivity, and signage regulations that were subject to the zoning site plan on the Property (Please see Public Restrictive Covenant for C14r-82-016 - Exhibit D). These items will now be regulated under the designated base zoning districts. The staff recommends the applicant’s request to delete the conditions of this public restrictive covenant. Since this restrictive covenant was executed and recorded, the property in question has been re-subdivided numerous times. The area under consideration is now known as Lot 3 of The Atrium, Lot 2A of the Amended Plat of Lots 1 and 2 The Atrium and a portion of Lot 1 of 8611 Centre subdivisions. The staff supports the deletion of this public restrictive covenant because items listed in this public restrictive covenant will now be regulated under the zoning district site development standards and other requirements stipulated by the Land Development Code. The applicant agrees with the staff’s recommendation.

ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET DISTRICT: 1 TO: SF-5-NP CASE: C14-2022-0052 E. 12th - Fuentes ZONING FROM: SF-3-NP ADDRESS: 3337 East 12th Street SITE AREA: 0.16 acres (6,969.60 sq.ft.) PROPERTY OWNER: Ethos Modular, LLC (Andres Esquivel) CASE MANAGER: Heather Chaffin (512-974-2122, heather.chaffin@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff supports the Applicant’s request of SF-5-NP. For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments on page 2. AGENT: Land Answers, Inc. (Jim Wittliff) PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: August 23, 2022: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: September 29, 2022: ORDINANCE NUMBER: C14-2022-0052 2 ISSUES: No issues at this time. The requested rezoning would allow the property owner to build 2 residential units on the property without being limited by the maximum building square footage of City Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) regulations. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject property is located at the southwest corner of East 12th Street and Greenwood Avenue, approximately 770 feet east of Airport Boulevard. The SF-3-NP zoned lot is currently developed with one single family residence. Properties to the west, south and east are also zoned SF-3-NP and developed with single family residential land uses. Further west, closer to the intersection with Airport Boulevard are properties zoned LR-MU-NP, CS-MU-NP and CS-1-NP. These properties are developed with a mix of land uses, including religious assembly, automotive repair services, liquor sales, professional office and cocktail lounge. Across East 12th Street to the north is Evergreen Cemetery, zoned P- Public. Also across East 12th Street, to the northeast, is another residential neighborhood zoned SF-3-NP. Please see Exhibits A and B- Zoning Map and Aerial Exhibit. Staff supports the rezoning request. While SF-3-NP zoning allows a single family house and an ADU, the ADU is limited to a maximum of 1,100 square feet. The lot is larger than the standard 5,750 square foot lot, but is not large enough to permit duplex residential land use (7,000 square feet). Redeveloping this oversized residential lot to allow two residences would allow a reasonable increase in development intensity and provide an additional housing unit. The property’s location at the intersection of East 12th and Greenwood Avenue, a residential collector street, is also appropriate. BASIS FOR RECOMMENDATION 1. 2. 3. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. Zoning should allow for reasonable use of the property. Zoning changes should promote compatibility with adjacent and nearby uses and should not result in …

The property has long-standing significant associations with persons, groups, institutions, businesses, or events of historic importance which contributed significantly to the history of the city, state, or nation; or represents a significant portrayal of the cultural practices or the way of life of a definable group of people in a historic time. PHONE: 512-974-2727 Nominator Nneka Shoulds, the home’s current occupant, describes the building’s historical associations: Recommended as not eligible for a local historic landmark designation in the East Austin Historical Resources Survey of 2016, 1605 Leona St. was essential in assisting a multicultural Tejano-Irish immigrant family and a marginalized Black American family to establish strong foundations upon which future generations would launch long-lasting legacies. Uniquely located directly across from historic Oakwood Cemetery (originally called City Cemetery and the oldest city-owned cemetery in Austin), the home tells the untold story of two families who achieved their American dreams against unimaginable odds. The people who lived here experienced and endured painful racial segregation and discriminatory practices, and they fought against those conditions with dignity and courage to break barriers in education, the military, music, and business. 1 of 10717 1605 Leona St. is the childhood home of Raymond (Ramón) “Cowboy” Donley, known as the “godfather of Tejano music.” Donley was a classically trained violinist who once played with the Durango Symphony. Raymond made his living as a barber by day, but at night, he led his band, La Orquesta …
