ORDINANCE AMENDMENT REVIEW SHEET Amendment: C20-2025-019 Zoning Sign Posting Description: Amend City Code Title 25 (Land Development Code) to modify current requirements and establish new requirements related to the posting of signs that are posted to provide notice of zoning and rezoning applications. Background: On June 20, 2025, House Bill 24 (HB 24) was approved in the 89th Texas State Legislative Session. HB 24 made changes to the requirements related to certain zoning and rezoning applications. Staff is proposing a code amendment to bring the Land Development Code into alignment with State Law. The most significant proposed changes are an increase to the minimum sign dimensions and a requirement that the applicant post signs. Summary of Proposed Code Amendment: 1. Create a new section of the Land Development Code: § 25-1-136 (Requirements for Applicant-Posted Signs) which describes procedures and requirements related to the posting of zoning signs, including: • The applicant shall post zoning signs required by Title 25 • A sign must: o specify the type of action pending, the case number, and the name and telephone number of the staff person to contact for additional information; o be posted on the property affected by the proposed change; o be visible from the street; o be at least 24 inches long by 48 inches wide; and o be spaced not more than 200 feet apart from another required sign for the same application. • If the street frontage of the subject property is less than 200 feet in length, only one sign is required. Not more than three signs are required per street frontage regardless of the length of the street frontage. Not more than ten signs are required per proposed change regardless of the site area. • The sign must be posted by the earlier date of: o The 30th day after application filing; or o The 11th day before the date that: 15 C20-2025-019 - Zoning Sign Posting Updates1 of 4 the historic landmark commission holds a hearing on the proposed change, if required; or the land use commission holds a hearing on the proposed change. • The applicant must maintain the sign until the date of a final determination on the proposed change by the City Council. • The applicant must provide verification of the placement of the sign in the manner prescribed by the responsible director and respond to a complaint not later …

Located at the corner of West 14th and West Lynn Streets, the church brought together neighbors in fellowship and activities for people of all ages. Over the decades, St. Luke’s provided a welcoming place for worship, education, and community engagement. The church’s role extended well beyond its congregation. St. Luke’s supported numerous outreach efforts that benefited the broader community. These included partnerships with the Hope Food Pantry, support for senior citizen activity centers, student family services, a child care center, and regular Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. The church also fostered community engagement through partnerships with local organizations such as Imagine Art. Through these programs and relationships, St. Luke’s served as a gathering place and a resource for neighbors throughout Old West Austin and beyond. OWANA appreciates the collaborative approach taken by the prospective new ownership group, which is comprised of local 78703 residents. The group has engaged constructively with the neighborhood and has presented a thoughtful vision to preserve the historic church buildings while adapting the site for a new community-oriented use. The proposed adaptive reuse project would establish a neighborhood bookstore with a café offering coffee, light fare, and beer and wine, creating a welcoming place for neighbors to gather. The concept also includes space for creative-sector partners, such as art galleries and small creative offices, helping to activate the site as a cultural and community hub. This vision aligns well with the neighborhood’s character and continues the long tradition of the property serving as a place where people come together. Importantly, the …

January 16, 2026 (revised 2/27/2026) To Whom it May Concern Sent by email only to: Megan Meisenbach at meganmeisenbach05@gmail.com Subject: Environmental Evaluation of Former Jack Brown Cleaners Site 615 W. Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd.; Austin, Texas Dear Ms. Meisenbach: As you requested, this letter report summarizes the results of my evaluation of environmental conditions and potential human health effects due to releases of dry cleaning chemicals from the former Jack Brown Cleaners (JBC) property (Site) located at 615 W. Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd in Austin, Texas. I summarize background information regarding the Site history, presence of dry cleaning chemical contamination in soil and groundwater at the Site and at nearby properties, regulatory status with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), and environmental risks if the Site is redeveloped for commercial or residential use. Summary and Conclusions From my review of the JBC Site VCP documents, I draw the following conclusions: ▪ ▪ ▪ The Site soil and groundwater are contaminated with high concentrations of the dry cleaning chemical Tetrachloroethylene (PCE) and its degradation by-product chemicals, including Trichloroethylene (TCE) and Vinyl Chloride (VC). The chemicals are present at levels exceeding indoor air human health limits for vapor migration into current and future buildings. Further, TCE in groundwater has exceeded TCEQ limits for outdoor air exposures. It is notable that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is sufficiently concerned about TCE’s toxicity (and that of PCE and VC) that the agency is phasing out nearly all uses of this chemical. It is my opinion that the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) inappropriately approved JBC’s request to cease Site cleanup and monitoring. The Voluntary Cleanup Program (VCP) Certificate of Completion granted to JBC means that they and future property owners have no further obligations to cleanup and protect on-site residents, visitors, and workers from cancer risks despite the potential that indoor and outdoor air quality could exceed human health safe limits. Regardless of TCEQ’s previous actions, future development plans for the JBC property should address these potential human health risks that likely will remain for decades unless the Site is properly remediated or building measures incorporated to prevent migration of toxic chemical gases into the buildings. In addition, the property owner should prevent outdoor air exposures, especially to workers who could contact contaminated soil and groundwater and breathe toxic vapors. Operational and Environmental History of the Site Dry cleaning operations …
Dear Mayor Watson, Council Members, and Planning Commissioners: 03.10.2026 I am writing regarding Case No. SP-2026-0048C.CP, the proposed redevelopment of the former Jack Brown Cleaners site and surrounding properties on Martin Luther King Blvd. While the project presents an ambitious vision for this gateway to Austin’s museum district and the University of Texas, two issues warrant careful consideration: the environmental condition of the site and the excessive height and scale being requested. Environmental Concern The neighborhood’s concern about the former dry-cleaner site has never been reactive. Since November 2024, we have sought clarity regarding the site’s environmental status. We support redevelopment and appreciate the recent willingness to collaborate, but the property’s 50+ year history as a dry cleaner requires continued caution, transparency, and accountability. Environmental records indicate that the most recent testing identified chlorinated solvent concentrations exceeding current residential screening levels, raising concerns for future residential redevelopment without additional evaluation or mitigation. We therefore seek a clear agreement for updated testing and, if necessary, additional remediation before demolition and redevelopment proceed. Compatibility in Scale & Height Second, we remain deeply concerned about the proposed height and scale. Two towers exceeding 400 feet would be clear outliers in relation to the surrounding area, the historic Judges Hill neighborhood, and the University of Texas Tower [307’]. The City and the neighborhood have long recognized, and agreed in the Downtown Austin Plan, to preserve and respect lower heights and appropriate transitions. Allowing this project to exceed those expectations would effectively rewrite established standards while the broader Central Business District planning process is still underway. For these reasons, I urge you to require a clear, enforceable process for any needed additional testing and remediation, and to accept the City staff’s 200-foot recommendation for this site. That approach would better respect the surrounding neighborhood, the historic edge of Judges Hill, and the City’s ongoing planning efforts. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, Marisela Maddox Judges Hill resident 16 SP-2026-0048C.CP - W. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard & Nueces Street; District 91 of 4 16 SP-2026-0048C.CP - W.

The largest tract of land is the site of the Pickle Research Center, housing industrial and research functions for the University of Texas. The tract to the west contains retail, food sales, and restaurant uses and is known as the Arbor Walk development. Across MoPac expressway, the University of Texas has administrative and operational offices and vacant land. To the north, across Braker Ln., there is a regional commercial retail center known as the Domain including multiple commercial, retail, hotel, office, and restaurant uses. To the south, there are various commercial, retail, and restaurant as well as indoor entertainment. The development to the east is comprised of multiple industrial, commercial, and warehouse uses.

07 C14-2025-0106 - 108 W Gibson; District 91 of 2 Planning Commission: 108 W. Gibson Project Thank you for information provided regarding above. I object to the proposal to basically eliminate Ordinance 20110825-203 and zoning C14-2011-0060. In reading the information provided, the applicant would be satisfied to have the Site Plan (3A) , Commercial Use square footage, of 20,000 SF (likely exceeded at existing site now) (3B), Building Height (would exceed 50’ now in Covenants). In addition, want Outdoor Entertainment and Outdoor Sports and Recreation added. OBJECTIONS: Beneath the above, applicant or property owner would be applying for a building permit if zoning change approved, to allow for a new office/retail building at 1318 S. Congress. The Cove exists at this address at present and would have to be torn down. See attached Architectural Plan 8 as part of the major plan. If approved to build, it would be a major disruption to normal traffic/pedestrian flow at the corner of Gibson and South Congress affecting business restaurants in that area. The height (90-120’) on said building would be totally out of proportion to existing buildings. The addition of Outdoor Entertainment and Sports/Recreation) is very vague as to the intended use. It lends itself to excessive noise for the neighborhood which already has more than enough weekend music available. The applicant did not furnish notifications to all residents of 1401 Eva as required. The applicant’s client (Arena Hall) is currently owner of one of these types of Clubs/Lodges at 1809 Pearl Street and unclear why another is needed. They have reportedly paid $2 Million on two properties adjacent to and near the proposed zoning change request (see 5). This appears to be a HQ’s for an “International Christian Movement for Emerging Leaders” which is not spelled out in any of applicant’s information and will be made possible by a change in zoning for expansion beyond existing zoning. It should also be noted that any addition for Restaurant in existing covenants would preclude that use if for retail sales and not a Club/Lodge. In summary, this application for Rezoning is of no benefit to the local neighborhoods, retail merchants or public in general and would only further create existing congestion in the area of Gibson and South Congress. The application is extremely vague as to the original intent that was proposed. While it appeared as a few harmless additions to the existing …

PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: February 10, 2026: January 13, 2026: APPROVED THE NEIGHBORHOOD’S POSTPONTMEN REQUEST TO FEBRURY 10, 2026. [F. MAXWELL; P. BRETON - 2ND] (11-0) TWO VACANCIES ON THE DIAS CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 07 C14-2025-0106 - 108 W Gibson; District 91 of 33 C14-2025-0106 ISSUES: 2 *On January 5, 2026, the applicant amended their application to match staff recommendation. The original request had Outdoor Entertainment as a conditional use, staff recommendation was to add Outdoor Sports and Recreations as conditional as well. On March 9, 2023, City Council approved Resolution No. 20230309-016 accepting the Equitable Transit-Oriented Development Policy Plan and directing the City Manager regarding next steps for implementation of items intended to benefit the Project Connect Phase 1 Austin Light Rail project. This included development of code amendments to support transit in May of 2024 (Ordinance No. 20240516-005), including creation of the ETOD combining district (restrictions on non-transit supportive uses) and the DBETOD combining district (allowing residential use, and relaxing some development standards including increased height in exchange for income-restricted housing). Properties within one half-mile of the Phase 1 Austin Light Rail alignment and Priority Extensions were included within this overlay, and certain properties were rezoned through a City-initiated process to include the ETOD and DBETOD combining districts. Further, properties rezoned with DBETOD combining district were categorized into Subdistrict 1 (maximum allowable height of 120 feet) or Subdistrict 2 (maximum allowable height of 90 feet), generally based on property distance of ¼-mile or ½-mile from the Phase 1 alignment, respectively. However, that rezoning process did not …
ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE: C14-2025-0108 - Lightsey Homes DISTRICT: 5 ZONING FROM: SF-3 ZONING TO: SF-6 ADDRESS: 1700 and 1704 Lightsey Road PROPERTY OWNER: Dustin Schneider SITE AREA: 2.98 acres (129, 809 sq. ft.) AGENT: Thrower Design, LLC (Ron Thrower & Victoria Haase) CASE MANAGER: Cynthia Hadri 512-974-7620, Cynthia.hadri@austintexas.gov STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The staff recommendation is to grant townhouse and condominium residence (SF-6) district. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: February 10, 2026: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is 2.98 acres, is developed with one single family residence and two accessory structures. The property has access to Lightsey Road (level 2) and Clawson Road (level 1), it is currently family residence (SF-3) zoning district. The parcel is located in the suspended South Lamar neighborhood plan (suspended) and will not require a future land use map amendment. The property is 0.38 miles from Lamar Boulevard Activity Corridor and the area is characterized as residential (SF-3;SF-5-CO; SF-6-CO). Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and A-1 (Aerial Exhibit). 08 C14-2025-0108 - Lightsey Homes; District 51 of 20 C14-2025-0108 2 The applicant is requesting a rezoning from family residence (SF-3) to townhouse and condominium residence (SF-6). The rezoning will allow the applicant to construct approximately thirty-five (35) homes on the parcel, per the attached summary letter (Exhibit C – Applicant’s Summary Letter). The staff recommends townhouse and condominium residence (SF-6) for the site, as it is consistent with the surrounding rezonings. The neighborhood is residential in nature and a rezoning to SF-6 would promote compatibility with the adjacent uses. The addition of housing to a centrally located neighborhood, such as this one, would expand the number of housing units near a variety of goods and services. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. The townhouse and condominium residence district is intended as an area for moderate density single family, duplex, two family, townhouse, and condominium use, without the spacing and locational requirements for townhouses and condominiums that apply in SF-5. This district is appropriate for areas in which unusually large lots predominate with access to other than minor residential streets, and in selected areas where a transition from single family to multifamily use is appropriate. 2. Zoning changes should promote compatibility with adjacent and nearby uses. The rezoning would promote compatibility with adjacent and …

The request fundamentally departs from the Concordia PUD master plan The site at 1012 Concordia Avenue was originally planned as part of the Concordia Planned Unit Development, with building heights up to approximately 65 feet and a clear intent to manage scale transitions adjacent to existing residential areas. That framework was the result of coordination between the City and surrounding communities and has guided successful development within the PUD to date. The current request represents the third major height increase for this site, from 65 feet to 120 feet in 2020, to 160 feet in 2023, and now up to 270 feet. A building of this magnitude would be more than four times the height originally planned for the site and would dramatically exceed the scale envisioned by the adopted PUD framework. 2. Incremental …

My ancestors are buried at Bethany Cemetery, and it remains one of the few surviving physical records of Black families who lived, labored, and built community in Austin during eras when their histories were rarely documented elsewhere. Preserving this cemetery protects not only sacred burial grounds, but also irreplaceable genealogical and cultural history. Historic designation would honor descendant families, safeguard dignity for those buried there, and ensure Austin’s history is preserved fully and truthfully. I respectfully urge the Committee to support permanent protection for Bethany Cemetery.
