A.4 - 1 ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET HLC DATE: PC DATE: September 24, 2012 CASE NUMBER: C14H-2012-0089 APPLICANT: Westgate Condominium Association HISTORIC NAME: The Westgate Tower WATERSHED: Lady Bird Lake ADDRESS OF PROPOSED ZONING CHANGE: 1122 Colorado Street ZONING FROM: CBD to CBD-H SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the proposed zoning change from Central Business District (CBD) zoning to Central Business District – Historic Landmark (CBD-H) combining district zoning. QUALIFICATIONS FOR LANDMARK DESIGNATION: The Westgate Tower is an excellent example of the New Formalism approach to modern architecture, is the only building in Austin designed by internationally-known architect Edward Durell Stone, and has served as a model for continued mixed-use growth in the city, combining residential, commercial, and social uses in the same building. HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION ACTION: PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: The building is not listed in the Comprehensive Cultural Resources Survey (1984) because of its age. ACTION: PHONE: 974-6454 ORDINANCE NUMBER: CITY COUNCIL DATE: ORDINANCE READINGS: 1ST 2ND 3RD CASE MANAGER: Steve Sadowsky NEIGHBORHOOD ORGANIZATION: Downtown Austin Neighborhood Association BASIS FOR RECOMMENDATION: Architecture: The Westgate Tower was designed by internationally-known New York architect Edward Durell Stone in 1962; the building was completed under the supervision of prominent local architects Fehr and Granger in 1966. It is an excellent example of the New Formalism in the modern movement of architecture in the 1960s, as espoused by Stone, who was known throughout the world for his high-rise buildings that combined verticality with the monumental scale, refinement, and ornamentation of Classical building styles. The Westgate, named for its location just west of the State Capitol grounds, also served Stone’s philosophy of building up-scale residential buildings in park-like settings in or near downtown areas, luring wealthy residents away from single-family houses in the suburbs. Stone was concerned that most high-rise architecture of the era was sole solution to A.4 - 2 overdevelopment where going up was the only way to develop a site that was otherwise overbuilt already. The location of the Westgate Tower provided Stone the opportunity to express the ideals of downtown living with a green setting. The Westgate was also innovative in several other ways, providing a model for future central city development – combining residential and commercial uses, and a necessary amenity in the modern era – an integral parking garage that formed a significant part of the entire composition rather than as an auxiliary, utilitarian structure. …

C20-2022-002 ORDINANCE AMENDMENT REVIEW SHEET Amendment: C20-2022-002 Commercial Parkland Dedication Description: Consider an amendment to Title 25-1 of the City Code to require parkland dedication for commercial developments. Proposed Language: See attached draft ordinance. Summary of proposed code amendment • • • Parkland dedication would apply to new commercial developments, specifically office, retail, industrial/warehouse, and hotel uses. This would be in addition to the existing residential requirements currently in effect. The commercial requirement would use the current formula of 9.4 acres of parkland per 1,000 new users of the parks system. The commercial uses would be calculated based on the number of employees per square foot, discounted by hours of operation, occupancy rate, and commuter percentage rates. Criteria for dedication and fee in-lieu would remain the same as for residential developments. Background: Initiated by City Council Resolution 20220407-042 On April 7, 2022, Council approved resolution No. 20220407-042, which initiated code amendments to the Parkland Dedication Ordinance in City Code Chapter 25- I (General Requirements and Procedures) to require parkland dedication for office, industrial, and commercial developments; and directed the City Manager to place the code amendment on an upcoming Council agenda that provides Council with sufficient time to adopt the ordinance and place the fee into the Fiscal Year 2023 budget; a 10-0 vote with Council Member Harper-Madison off the dais. Staff Recommendation: Staff brings forward the amendment with recommendation. Board and Commission Actions July 12, 2022: Postponed by the Planning Commission until August 9th, 2022. July 25, 2022: Recommended by the Parks and Recreation Board. Council Action July 28, 2022: Postponed until August 11th, 2022.

• Regarding the parkland acquisition list included in the Q&A for PC (answer to question 20), can you please share the data as a spreadsheet with the inclusion of zip codes and/or city council districts? See chart and map below • In terms of the standard of 9.4 acres for every thousand residents, can you please share what standards do other peer cities employ in terms of acreage for every thousand residents? (Peer cities may include Dallas, Houston, Denver, San Diego, Portland) Other cities vary in the level of service required by parkland dedication and/or park impact fees. San Diego ranges across different types (single family, multi family, and accessory) and different planning areas in the city: 165.96 square feet of parkland per unit to 544.94 square feet of parkland per unit – equal to an approximate equivalent of 2.24 acres per 1,000 people to 7.36 acres per 1,000 people. Madison, WI has 10.13 acres per 1,000 people. Dallas ranges from 1 acre per 100 single family homes to 1 acre per 255 multifamily homes; that ranges from an equivalent 3.57 acres per 1,000 people to 2.3 acres per 1,000 people. Minneapolis requirements are 287.5 square feet per every downtown dwelling unit, and 435.6 square feet per dwelling unit outside downtown; that would equate to roughly 3.88 per 1,000 people to 4.55 acres per 1,000 people. Atlanta’s level of service—including commercial--range from 17.07 acres to 2.83 acres for every 1,000 functional population; range is based on region, and discounts are applied to the functional population calculation depending on density Dr. John R Crompton’s studies have documented the requirements across Texas in his study “Parkland Dedication: An Underutilized Resource”, published this year (see attached, page 36-38 includes a table summarizing the requirements across Texas). For further reference, the National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA) states that the typical park service is 9.9 acres per 1,000 people. The 2017 Trust for Public Land City Parks Facts report also includes a table with acres per 1,000 people in all major cities in US: Austin has an established goal of 24 park acres per 1,000 residents. Currently, Austin declined to 18 acres per 1,000, as the city has grown. Parkland dedication is intended to help maintain the park level of service; as such, it is currently set to 9.4 acres per 1,000 people, which was calculated using the acreage of pocket parks, neighborhood parks, …

Over the past 25 years, about 50 Texas cities have enacted parkland dedication ordinances to address park needs related to such growth. In this publication, John L. Crompton, Distinguished Professor and Regents Professor at Texas A&M University, reviews parkland dedication ordinances that have been enacted in 48 Texas cities. The analysis identifies what constitutes best practices when establishing or revising a parkland dedication ordinance. We hope this information will enlighten Texas community leaders on the possibilities this approach offers for ensuring that future residents have access to parkland and the associated benefits. …

Vesting fees to SDP submittal would require City Council to add language to the budget adoption ordinance. Part 3 of the adopting ordinance language below would need to be modified. Neutral - This has a minimal impact on the outcomes of the ordinance, but may open the ordinance to increased legal scrutiny as not all developments are treated equally, unless it can be shown that there is no impact on parkland by new commercial development less than 5,000 sq ft. Would likely also exempt any commercial space proposed with VMU developments as well as most fast-food chains (average McDonalds is 4,000 sq ft, average Chipotle is 2,580 sq ft). Exemption would not apply if critical connection or greenbelt gap is identified on site.

August 9, 2022 Planning Commission Question and Answer Report Item 10 Question Thompson: One of the questions I had during our last hearing was about the number of reverse commuters, people who live in Austin but work in a neighboring community. Staff said they didn’t have the answer but would have the data by our next meeting. Staff responded to some of the questions in our last hearing including some of mine, but there response was more about why the data was unnecessary in their thinking. I just wanted to follow up and make sure that staff would have the data before our next meeting. Staff Response: According to the American Community Survey data, there are 73,792 workers living in Austin and working outside of Austin. These workers would be residents of Austin, with access to Austin’s park system and addressed through residential requirements. The number of employees working in Austin (those residing in the city and outside) according to the same survey is 747,394, however, the 73,792 is not part of that sum, since they work outside of Austin. They are counted as residents. The use of other jurisdictions’ park systems by those workers during their workday is not something we can affect. Note that Hutto, for example, also has a commercial parkland dedication requirement.

Revising our recommendation from LO-MU-CO and NO-MU-CO zoning to LO-MU-CO zoning for Tract 2 will allow for consistency in development on the rear portion of this property along Fort View Road.
