PROPERTY OWNER: Wanda Harris AGENT: PLACE Designers, Inc. (Vincent Shaw) CASE MANAGER: Sherri Sirwaitis (512-974-3057, sherri.sirwaitis@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends NO-MU, Neighborhood Office-Mixed Use Combining District, zoning. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: January 21, 2020 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: February 20, 2020 ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 14B-01 2 ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The site under consideration is currently developed with a single-family residence that fronts onto Limerick Avenue. The applicant is requesting Neighborhood Office zoning because she would like to permit small office uses on the property. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: The staff recommends NO-MU, Neighborhood Office-Mixed Use Combining District, zoning because the subject tract meets the intent of the proposed zoning district as the NO district is the designation for an office use that serves neighborhood or community needs and that is located within or adjacent to residential neighborhoods. The property is located near the entrance to a single-family residential neighborhood. There is a commercial retail center next to the property to the east and office uses to the west, across Limerick Avenue. There is a precedent for NO zoning to the west of this site, across Limerick Avenue. NO-MU zoning will provide for a transition in the intensity of uses permitted from the LR zoning on the lot to the north along W. Parmer Lane to the SF-1 zoning/single family residential uses along Limerick Avenue to the south. The staff recommends adding MU, Mixed Use Combining District, to allow for more flexibility in the use of this property. The purpose of a mixed-use combining district is to allow office, retail, commercial, and residential uses to be combined in a single development. The applicant agrees with the staff’s recommendation. EXISTING ZONING AND LAND USES: Site North South East West ZONING NO LR SF-1 GR GO-MU-CO, NO LAND USES Single-Family Residence Day Care (Hebrew Academy) Single-Family Residences Commercial Retail Center Office (REMCO Insurance),Single Family Residence AREA STUDY: North Lamar Area Study (This property is located within the North Lamar Area Study, which was adopted by the City Council on October 3, 1985.
