E. 11th St. Petition Summary 11-A Petition Language: We the undersigned, owners of real property in District 1, object to the proposed building heights along Rosewood Avenue between Navasota and Angelina St to include 1223 Rosewood Ave, 1305 Rosewood Ave, 1309 Rosewood Ave, 1317 Rosewood Ave, 1319 Rosewood Ave. We object to any allowed building height greater than 35 feet. 11-B Petition Language: We, the undersigned owners of property affected by the requested zoning change described in the referenced file, do hereby protest against any changes to the East 11th St. NCCD and Urban Renewal Plan that increase allowable heights, increase allowable Floor to Area Ratio and makes hotel use a permitted use along the 1000 through 1200 blocks of East 11th St. and Rosewood Ave. The East 11th Street NCCD already grants waivers to compatibility. The E. 11th Street area has been redeveloping in ways that are creating a vibrant, diverse neighborhood. The recommendations of the Planning Commission recognize this fact and offer ways to improve the NCCD and URP better than the staff and Urban Renewal Board recommendations because they take a more holistic view. East 11th Street and East 12th Street do not exist in isolation, but rather are woven into the broader fabric of established neighborhood residential, civic and religious uses. The Planning Commission recommendations acknowledge this more thoroughly than either the staff or URB recommendations. 11-C Petition Language: We, the undersigned owners of property affected by the requested zoning change described in the referenced file, do hereby protest against any change to the East 11th Street NCCD and Urban Renewal Plan other than the recommendations of the Planning Commission for the for the specific parcels identified below. Except that the undersigned property owners are also opposed to any increase in height above the current limit of 35 feet at the southwest corner of East 11th Street and Waller Street. The proposed height of 60 feet is inappropriate for these properties because the Salvatore Bailetti House, a designated City of Austin Historic Landmark, the St. Joseph Grand Lodge, a structure of historical value, and The Dr. Charles E. Urdy Plaza exist there and should remain. …

WINSTEAD Draft 9.16.21 ADDENDUM NO. 4 EAST 11TH AND 12TH STREET NEIGHBORHOOD URBAN RENEWAL PROJECT This Addendum No. 4 (this "Addendum") pertains to the East 11th Street and 12th Street Neighborhood Urban Renewal Project and related services (the "Project") and is entered into between the City of Austin, Texas (the "City") and the Austin Economic Development Corporation (the "AEDC"), effective [Month] [Day], 2021, pursuant to the Interlocal Cooperation Agreement entered into by and among the AEDC, the City and the Austin Industrial Development Corporation June 10th, 2021 (the "Interlocal Agreement"). The City and the AEDC may be referred to individually as a Party or collectively as the Parties. Terms not otherwise defined have the meanings ascribed to them in the Interlocal Agreement. 1. Background On October 1, 2019, the City entered into an "Agreement Concerning Implementation of East 11th and 12th Streets Urban Renewal Plan" (as amended, the "URA Agreement") with the Urban Renewal Agency of the City of Austin, a Texas urban renewal agency (the "URA"). The URA Agreement discusses the coordination and implementation of the East 11th and 12th Streets Urban Renewal Plan prepared by the URA and approved by the City pursuant to Chapter 374 of the Texas Local Government Code (the "UR Plan"). As a component of the UR Plan, the City transferred two parcels of land within the redevelopment area known as Block 16 and Block 18, totaling approximately 2.05 acres, as more fully described in Exhibit A attached hereto (the "Land"), and the URA has agreed to undertake the redevelopment of the Land in a manner that supports the goals of the UR Plan. In January 2019, the URA received public input and began identifying development priorities for the Land. These priorities included (i) project creativity and need, (ii) additional affordable housing, (iii) community parking, (iv) incorporation of the African American Cultural & Heritage Facility or the Historic Victory Grill, (v) minority and women owned business, (vi) green building, and (vii) other public benefits (the "Development Priorities"). The AEDC and the URA have recommended that the redevelopment of the Land be achieved through a long-term master lease, ground lease, or public-private partnership transaction to be agreed upon pursuant to a competitive solicitation process. This process is most likely to result in the highest and best use of the Land as modified by the Development Priorities and the priorities set forth in the UR Plan. …

On October 1, 2019, the City of Austin (the "City") and the URA entered into an "Agreement Concerning Implementation of East 11th and 12th Streets Urban Renewal Plan" (as amended, the "URA Agreement").

B. As a component of the UR Plan, the City transferred two parcels of land within the redevelopment area known as Block 16 and Block 18, totaling approximately 2.05 acres, as more fully described in EXHIBIT A attached hereto (the "Land"), and the URA has agreed to undertake the redevelopment of the Land in a manner that supports the goals of the UR Plan (the "Project"). C. Public input activities regarding the Land have taken place continuously over the past twenty (20) years. As such, numerous planning documents incorporating public input have been introduced, such as the 1999 Central East Austin Master Plan, the 2001 Central East Austin Neighborhood Plan, a 2009 RFP that was the product of a public engagement process, and the 2012 East 11th-12th Street Development Strategy plan. More recently, in January 2019, the URA accumulated the years of public input and began identifying development priorities for the Land.

URBAN RENEWAL BOARD RECOMMENDATION 20211018-2c Seconded By: Pierce Date: October 18, 2021 Subject: Update to 11th Street Neighborhood Conservation Combining District (NCCD) Recommendation Motioned By: Escobar Recommendation Revise the Board’s recommendation to Planning Commission and Council that the Board no longer advocates for the creation of a Subdistrict 4 and instead those properties along and adjacent to Rosewood remain in Subdistrict 1 and Subdistrict 2 as proposed by staff’s recommendation. Description of Recommendation to Council The URB was tasked with bringing the Urban Renewal Plan (URP) and the NCCDs into alignment. The URB originally proposed the creation of Subdistrict 4 along Rosewood Avenue because these properties fall outside the boundaries of the URP. After the URB’s deliberation on the NCCD, staff’s analysis revealed that if properties within the newly created Subdistrict 4 are subject to their base zoning district, entitlements will be reduced for some properties. This does not align with the URB’s intention with its original recommendation, therefore the URB is supportive of staff’s recommendation that these properties remain in Subdistrict 1 and 2 (see attached maps). Vote For: Escobar, Pierce, Motwani, Tetey, Skidmore, Bradford Against: None Abstain: None Absent: Watson Attest: Laura Keating 1 of 2 Urban Renewal Board Original Recommendation Staff Recommendation (supported by the URB) 2 of 2
