Good afternoon, Chairman Shaw and Commissioners – I am reaching out to ask that the Planning Commission postpone Item B-12 Flood Regulations to require that planning staff ensure 1. all federal and state floodplain management standards are met, 2. federal and state review procedures have been followed, 3. that the City will be fully compliant with all FEMA requirements so citizens can obtain federal flood insurance, and 4. to institutionally design governance checks and balances so that “director determination” does not risk establishing a de facto policy making process with a single point of influence. It is in all interests to postpone this proposed ordinance change to ensure engagement with all stakeholders and compliance with all federal and state regulations, statutes, and laws. Once finalized, outreach should be carried out to ensure that Austinites know LDC code changes will not put them in flooding danger or prevent them from buying affordable flood insurance. What is most troubling about this proposed ordinance change is Section A (1) and (2): § 25-7-93 GENERAL EXCEPTIONS. 4 (A) A development application with a proposed building or parking area that 5 encroaches on the 100-year floodplain may be approved if the encroachment is: (1) a parking area that is smaller than 5,000 square feet or an unoccupied structure that has an area of less than 1,000 square feet, and the director determines that the proposed development: (a) will not have an adverse effect on the 100-year floodplain or surrounding properties; and (b) otherwise complies with the requirements of this title; Without ensuring the first three concerns listed above are met, staff is not mitigating the peril that: • Austin will fail to meet FEMA requirements for citizens to be able to buy federally subsidized • Allow additional impervious cover that will potentially cause flooding downstream in the flood flood insurance, and plain. It was only last week that the proposed revised ordinance became available to the public. All that has been posted in Backup is last week’s ordinance draft and a slide deck. The slide deck makes no mention of carrying out policy analysis to ensure that concerns 1-3 above have been met. In the procedures followed section of the deck, there is no mention of when federal or state review will occur or recognition of federal and state stakeholders. There is no mention of SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) having been done, much …

CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject rezoning area consists of one platted lot, which is located near the middle of the block and currently zoned as general commercial services; family residence (CS; SF-3). The subject site is currently developed with a single-family residence, with a pergola and storage shed in the rear yard. Mary Street contains a broad range of residential and commercial uses, and intersects with a major arterial in South Lamar Boulevard to the west of the subject property. There are apartments to the west of the site (CS), a condominium community to the east and south, due to its unique lot shape (SF-6-CO), and an automotive repair use across the street (CS). Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and A-1 (Aerial Exhibit). 1 of 9B-6 C14-2022-0057 Page 2 The applicant has requested family residence (SF-3) district zoning.

MEMORANDUM TO: Chair and Members of the Planning Commission FROM: Andrei Lubomudrov Housing and Planning Department DATE: June 23, 2022 RE: Proposed annexation of approximately 5.03 acres into Travis County Water Control and Improvement District No. 10 (District) C12M-2022-0001 On April 13, 2022, the City received an application requesting the City’s consent to the annexation of approximately 5.03 acres located at 4315 Dunning Lane in Austin’s extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ) and in the Lake Austin Watershed. The District includes properties in western Travis County and located either in the City of Austin’s ETJ or the City of West Lake Hills. The property to be annexed into the District is located in the Lake Austin Watershed. A map identifying the tract to be annexed into the District and its location relative to existing District boundaries and City jurisdictions is attached. Applicant’s Proposal The applicant seeks annexation into WCID 10 to acquire water service for about half of an existing 10-acre property, or approximately 5.03 acres. The area is currently divided between two lots, one of which is about 10 acres, and another that is smaller than one acre. If annexation approval is granted, the property owner will subdivide the existing 10-acre property and seek to serve the 5.03-acre portion of the replatted lot through WCID 10. The balance of the property will be in Austin Water’s service area. As part of the Annexation into a Water District process, case number C12M-2022-0001 will go before Austin’s Commissions as well as Austin City Council. Upon City Council approval, the property will then be annexed by the District. Representatives of the property owners appeared before the District’s Board of Directors at its meeting on January 12, 2022, and the District Board approved the annexation request contingent upon receiving the City’s approval of the District’s annexation of the property. 1 City Review Process The Agreement Concerning Creation of the District requires City approval for the annexation of land by the District. The District is considered a “noncity service district” and as such, the City is not authorized to place restrictions or conditions on this consent. If the City fails or refuses to consent within 90 days of receipt of a written request, the owner may petition the City to make available those services to be provided by the District. Failure to execute a mutually agreeable contract for services within 120 days constitutes authorization for inclusion of …
