The district is generally not compatible with, nor should it be located adjacent to residential uses. Residential uses are not allowed in this district due to noise, vibrations, truck traffic, emissions, and storage of hazardous materials. This district is appropriate for individual sites or smaller groupings of industrial uses. Character and Intent • Entirely industrial/office/services, no residential uses. • Typical Land Uses: o Primary Uses: Light Manufacturing centers, distribution and warehousing, technology/data centers, flexible industrial spaces, contractor yards. o Secondary Uses: Commercial, office, civic, and institutional uses; ponds and storm water facilities. Industry District Features The following features were identified as characteristics that should be typical to the Industry District: • Offices, warehouses, industrial parks with truck loading facilities • Building heights generally one to three stories • Adequate parking, visible from street • Storage yards or containers screened from view of street • Deep front setbacks • Landscaping along street frontages. PROPOSED LAND USE ON THE PROPERTY Commerce - This character district accommodates commercial activities such as retail entertainment venues, or campuses located mostly along highway frontage roads. Although these sites should allow for internal pedestrian connectivity, their overall design is fashioned to the needs of people arriving by car. Residential uses are inappropriate due to a lack of external connectivity.

CASE: C14-2020-0013 (8803 N Mopac) ADDRESS: 8803 North Mopac Expressway DISTRICT: 10 OWNER/APPLICANT: Semmaterials Energy Partners, LLC % BKEP Materials AGENT: Drenner Group, PC (Amanda Swor) ZONING FROM: LI SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The staff recommendation is to grant CS, General Commercial Services District, zoning. PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: ISSUES: During the Burnet Road, Anderson Lane and the North Shoal Creek Area neighborhood planning process, the long range planning staff did not add the –NP combining district to the end of the zoning string for the properties in the planning area. Therefore, the rezoning request does not require the “NP” annotation. DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: The property in question is developed with an industrial use/emulsion plant (Ergon Asphalt & Emulsions, Inc.). There is outdoor storage for TxDOT to the north. The property to the south is developed with an office building (The Atrium Office Centre). To the east, there is a railway and an industrial/warehouse park (Shoal Creek Business Park). To the west is the North Mopac Expressway. The applicant is requesting CS, General Commercial Services District, zoning to allow for redevelopment of the site with an office use (Please see Applicant’s Request Letter-Exhibit C). The staff recommends CS zoning for this property because it meets the intent of the ‘CS’ district as it fronts onto a major arterial roadway, North Mopac Expressway (Loop 1). The proposed zoning would be consistent with existing zoning patterns in this area because there is industrial (LI) zoning to the north and east), office and commercial (LO, CS-MU-CO, GR) zoning to the south and west of this site. The CS zoning would allow for a fair and reasonable use of the site because it would make it possible for the applicant to redevelop a site with a use that is consistent with the office development to the south. The applicant agrees with the staff ‘s recommendation. 1 1 of 14B-06 EXISTING ZONING AND LAND USES: Site North South East West ZONING LI LI LO LI MoPac Expressway, CS-MU-CO, GR LAND USES Industrial (Ergon Asphalt & Emulsions, Inc.)

The owner is requesting to change the FLUM to “mixed use” in order to construct a multifamily building. There is an existing neighborhood plan amendment (NPA) associated with this rezoning case (NPA-2017-0021.01). The owner has been working with the neighborhood plan contact team to come to an agreement with them in order to support of the FLUM change and rezoning of the property, see Exhibit C: NPA and Owner Agreement. Most of the items within the agreement will be incorporated into a private restrictive covenant. The only item within their agreement related to this rezoning case is a list of prohibited uses.

The lot is approximately 0.23 acres (10,018 square feet). A two-story limestone building occupies about half the lot width and less than half the length. The building is a designated Austin historic landmark known variously as the Austin Gold Dollar, Franzetti’s grocery store and Freedman’s building. The request is for a building footprint rezoning to permit a cocktail lounge/restaurant in the historic building. Several new, midrise residential buildings have been built north of West 24th Street. Some of the new buildings are mixed use with ground floor retail and personal service uses. There are wide sidewalks and under-building parking. These features make the neighborhood walkable. Much of the demand for goods and services in this mixed-use neighborhood will come from the residents and workers within the neighborhood. The stone structure built in 1869, is the last remaining building from Wheatsville, an African- American neighborhood. The building was the home of Rev. Jacob Fontaine, a Baptist minister and former slave known for his community leadership and newspaper publishing. In 1876, Fontaine founded and published the Austin Gold Dollar, a weekly newspaper from his home, the two-story, limestone building. Austin Gold Dollar was the first black newspaper west of the Mississippi River. Fontaine also established the New Hope Missionary Baptist Church in the …

The conditional overlay is a height limit of 90 feet. For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see page 2. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: May 12, 2020 Scheduled for Planning Commission CITY COUNCIL ACTION: May 21, 2020 Scheduled for City Council ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 8B-13 C14-2020-0036 2 ISSUES This property was rezoned from CS to DMU-CO last year (Ordinance No. 20190620-124) which limited the height of buildings to 60 feet. At the time of the previous rezoning case, the applicant had intended to utilize the Downtown Density Bonus Program for increased entitlements. It was unclear at that time that by limiting the building height to 60 feet through a conditional overlay, the CO would prevent the applicant in moving forward with a taller building height even if they fully participated in the Downtown Density Bonus Program. Therefore, in order to construct the building that is currently under review (case # SP-2019-0390C), a zoning change is necessary to increase the maximum allowable building height. The applicant and Neighborhood Association have agreed upon a private restrictive covenant (RC). This private RC lays out terms on what the maximum development entitlements are and how the applicant may earn them. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property is zoned DMU-CO and currently has four buildings located onsite: a commercial retail store, two office/warehouse buildings dedicated to professional reprographics, and one single-family style structure being used as an office. The first three buildings are configured around a parking lot with the single-family style building behind these. This property is on the south side of West 12th Street. Across the street to the north are parcels zoned CS containing the ACC Rio Grande Parking Garage, retail shops and a café. To the east of the property are also CS zoned parcels, containing offices within a mixture of repurposed single- family and modern style structures. To the south and southwest of the property are parcels zoned MF-4, GO and LO. The GO and LO parcels have a mixture of office …

CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The proposed rezoning is for a portion of a property located at the southwest corner of the intersection of East Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard (MLK) and US Highway 183.

The southeastern portion of the property is the area to be rezoned, and is separated by a tributary of Walnut Creek. The rezoning tract is mostly undeveloped and has frontage on US Highway 183 and Tannehill Lane. The property is zoned CS-CO-NP, with COs that were added at the time of the East MLK neighborhood planning process in 2002. In addition to designating the parcel as mixed use on the future land use map (FLUM), the plan added the following prohibited land uses: adult oriented businesses, automotive sales, blood plasma collection center, convenience storage, equipment sales, vehicle storage, agricultural sales and services, campgrounds, construction sales and services, equipment repair services, kennels, and limited warehousing and distribution land uses. The Applicant does not propose modifying the existing CO. Immediately south of the rezoning tract is land zoned CS-CO-NP with the same conditions as the rezoning tract that is developed with a civic use. Further south are properties developed with religious assembly and multifamily land uses that are zoned MF-2-CO-NP. Across Tannehill Lane to the west are an undeveloped tract (GR-CO-NP) and multifamily land use (MF-3-CO- NP). Southwest of the rezoning tract are religious assembly and private education land uses …
