From: To: Cc: Subject: Date: Rhoades, Wendy; Item B7, Case No. C14-2022-0042, on Planning Commission Meeting Agenda 6-14-2022 Tuesday, June 14, 2022 11:51:56 AM *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Good Afternoon Victoria, The Contact Team did vote via email in support of the proposed change of use for 8016 Burleson, provided that the owner agrees to a Private Restrictive Covenant (no hazardous materials onsite) and obtains feedback from nearby residents. Just FYI, we know when you made your presentation to the group two months ago, that you reported you reached out to the residents that live adjacent to this property. We didn't know if anyone of them reached out or if they had any questions or voiced concerns. We would like for you to continue to work with the residents that are directly impacted by this change and have lived there for many years. I have submitted a speaker registration form and noted that we are in favor of this case. Please let us know if the owner is in agreement with the Private Restrictive Covenant and will work with nearby residents. We look forward to our continued work with you and the owner. Thank you. Ana Ana Aguirre Immediate Past Chair SCNPCT Ana Aguirre I find the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand as in what direction we are moving.

PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: May 24, 2022: May 10, 2022: To grant postponement to May 24, 2022, as requested by applicant, on consent. CITY COUNCIL ACTION: TBD ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 8B-12 C14-2022-0009 2 ISSUES: If rezoning is granted, Staff recommends that the existing conditional overlays on the property be retained. The following uses are currently prohibited on the property: Drive-in service as an accessory use to commercial uses, Automotive rentals, Automotive repair services, Automotive sales, Automotive washing (of any type), Service station, and Pawn shop services. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject property is located on the south side of East 51st Street approximately 400 feet west of Ed Bluestein Boulevard. The 4-acre property is undeveloped and heavily vegetated. The CS-MU-CO-NP property included prohibited land uses, as outlined in the Issues section of this report. Immediately to the west and south of the property is a residential neighborhood zoned SF-4A-NP which triggers compatibility standards on the site. Immediately to the east of the property is property zoned CS-CO-NP is the newly constructed 183/51st Street Trailhead that provides bicycle and pedestrian access across 183/Ed Bluestein Boulevard. The trail connects on the east side of the highway adjacent to the East Communities YMCA and Walnut Creek Greenbelt. Also east and southeast of the rezoning tract are properties that front the southbound Ed Bluestein frontage road. These properties are zoned LI-CO-NP, CS-NP, and CS-CO-NP; these properties include Automotive repair, Undeveloped, and Public high school land uses, respectively. Across East 51st Street to the north is Little Walnut Creek Greenbelt, zoned P-NP, and a Hotel-motel property zoned GR-NP. Please see Exhibits A and B- Zoning Map and Aerial Exhibit. Staff does not support the request to rezone the property to CS-MU-V-NP. The closest bus service is one mile away at 51st and Springdale Road. Sidewalks in the area are fragmented between the property and the closest bus route. Commercial opportunities are very limited in the area, so development on this site will be …

Staff supports an alternate recommendation of MF-3-NP. AGENT: Alice Glasco Consulting (Alice Glasco) For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments on page 2. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: May 24, 2022: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: TBD ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 9B-13 C14-2022-0017 2 ISSUES: No issues at this time. The Applicant is amenable to staff’s recommendation of MF-3-NP. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject property is located on the south side of Hudson Street approximately 1500 feet west of Ed Bluestein Boulevard. The rezoning tract is zoned SF-3-NP and is comprised of multiple lots. The lots include one single family residence and a mix of undeveloped and commercial properties. SF-3-NP properties are located to the south and west are developed with single family residences. A single family property to the east is developed with a commercial land use. Further to the east are properties zoned GR-MU-NP and CS-NP that include undeveloped lots and lots developed with automotive repair and vehicle storage land uses. Across Hudson Street to the north are properties zoned CS-MU-NP, LI-NP, IP-NP that are developed with a mix of land uses including automotive repair services, plant nursery, and religious assembly. Northwest of the subject property are SF-3-NP zoned residential properties and a P-NP property that contains Travis County International Cemetery. Please see Exhibits A and B- Zoning Map and Aerial Exhibit. Staff does not support the requested MF-4-NP zoning at this location and supports MF-3-NP as an alternate recommendation. The scale of MF-3-NP zoning is more appropriate for a multifamily development that is surrounded by single family residential properties on three sides. Multifamily zoning at this location will increase the number of housing units in the area and increase the mix of housing options. This reflects priorities outlined in the Council adopted Strategic Housing Blueprint. BASIS FOR RECOMMENDATION 1. Council. 2. Council or Planning Commission. 3. development intensities. 4. opportunities or providing for affordable housing.

ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET to Morrow Street CASE: C14-2022-0031 – Remove Vehicular Access Restriction ZONING FROM / TO: TOD-NP, to change a condition of zoning ADDRESS: Intersection of Easy Wind Drive and Morrow Street SITE AREA: 32.63 acres APPLICANT: City of Austin – Housing and Planning Department CASE MANAGER: Andrei Lubomudrov (512-974-7659) DISTRICT: 7 Andrei.lubomudrov@austintexas.gov [A. AZHAR; J. MUSHTALER – 2ND) (13-0) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is to approve the zoning change to transit oriented development – neighborhood plan (TOD-NP) combining district zoning, to remove the vehicular access restriction to Morrow Street. For a summary of the basis of Staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments on page 2. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: May 24, 2022: May 10, 2022: APPROVED A POSTPONEMENT REQUEST BY THE NEIGHBORHOOD TO MAY 24, 2022 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: June 9, 2022: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: The Crestview Neighborhood Association has requested postponement of the rezoning application. Please refer to correspondence attached at the back of the Staff report. The Applicant, in this case the City of Austin, has submitted a zoning application to remove a condition added to the Crestview TOD in 2011 to restrict vehicular access to Morrow Street from Easy Wind Drive. The application was filed as a result of City Council direction provided in Resolution No. 20220217-037. Removing the zoning condition restricting access would ensure long-term unimpeded access to Morrow Street from the Crestview Station area. The Austin Transportation Department recommended removal of the gate following a three- month traffic study that found opening the gate created no significant safety risks. 1 of 49B-14 C14-2022-0031 Page 2 CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The proposed rezoning change removes the restriction on vehicular access to Morrow Street via Easy Wind Drive. Further changes to the Crestview Station TOD are not proposed. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. The transit oriented development (TOD) district is the designation for an identified transit station and the area around it. The district provides for development that is compatible with and supportive of public transit and a pedestrian-oriented environment. Staff believes the proposed zoning is consistent with the district as it increases overall access to transit at Crestview Station. The neighborhood plan (NP) district denotes a tract located within the boundaries of an adopted Neighborhood Plan. Zoning changes should promote compatibility with adjacent and nearby uses. 2. The requested …

DESCRIPTION OF WAIVER: This item was a discussion item at the April 12th Planning Commission meeting, and the applicant has made adjustments to their proposed site plan based on the Planning Commission and community feedback. The applicant is requesting a waiver from § 25-2-1063. This site is subject to a 25’ compatibility setback and the proposed development is encroaching into the 25’ setback on the north and west property lines. The west property line abuts an alley with an SF-3 property with a 5’ rear setback on the opposite side of the alley and the north property line abuts an SF-3 property with a 5’ interior side yard setback. After the previous meeting’s discussion, the applicant is now proposing the two units on the north side of the site to be setback 7’ from the north property line and the units on the western side to be setback 18’ from the west property line. If approved, this waiver will not impact sightlines at the intersection of 14th Street and Cedar Avenue. COMPATIBILITY: Section 25-2-1051 states that Article 10 Compatibility Standards apply if a use in a SF-6 or less restrictive zoning district is located on a property across the street from or adjoining a property on which is zoned SF-5 or more restrictive or a use is permitted in a SF-5 or more restrictive zoning district is located. § 25-2-1063 - HEIGHT LIMITATIONS AND SETBACKS FOR LARGE SITES.

BASIS FOR STAFF’S RECOMMENDATION: Staff supports the applicant’s request for Mixed Use land use because Burnet Road is an established commercial corridor designated as an Activity Corridor on the Imagine Austin Growth Concept map where mixed use developments are encouraged. The Crestview/Wooten neighborhood plan supports mixed use developments on Anderson Lane and Burnet Road. Section of plan document that supports the applicant’s request. Land Use Objective 2: Encourage the development of neighborhood-serving commercial and mixed use on Anderson Lane and Burnet Road. Both Anderson Lane and Burnet Road are nearly fully developed as commercial corridors. The types of commercial uses vary widely, including numerous auto sale and service establishments and multi-tenant shopping centers. Care should be taken to ensure that redevelopment serves to strengthen these two retail corridors and maintain their utility as shopping districts. The neighborhood generally agrees that mixed-use development is acceptable on Anderson and Burnet. Adding the Neighborhood Mixed Use Building special use to commercial properties should help facilitate some redevelopment and make better use of the smaller commercial lots. Other mixed use options, including the MU overlay and the neighborhood urban center can be added to the large, deep commercial lots on Burnet Road south of Anderson. The existing zoning on the corridors is generally appropriate, but land area intensive. Auto-related uses should be limited to help maintain the retail viability of both corridors. Recommendations 1. Allow the Neighborhood Mixed Use Building special use on all non-freeway commercial corridors. larger than one acre). 2. Add the Mixed Use (MU) Combining District to larger commercial tracts (generally LAND USE DESCRIPTIONS EXISTING LAND …
