ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: July 20, 2021: June 15, 2021: APPROVED A POSTPONEMENT REQUEST BY THE NEIGHBORHOOD TO JULY 20, 2021 [D. KING; H. SMITH – 2ND] (11-0) CITY COUNCIL ACTION: August 26, 2021: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: None at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject platted lot is located on Drew Lane, contains one single family residence and is zoned development reserve (DR) district. There are single family residences and manufactured homes to the north (SF-2); a two-family residence and single family residences on large lots to the east (SF-3-CO; SF-2; I-SF-2); single family residences and duplexes across Drew Lane to the south (County); and single family residences on large lots to the west (SF-2). The Bauerle Ranch subdivision is further west near the terminus of Drew Lane (SF-2-CO). Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map), A-1 (Aerial Exhibit) and B (Recorded Plat). 1 of 22B-01 C14-2021-0089 Page 2 The Applicant has requested family residence (SF-3) district zoning in order to build up to 18 single family residences on the property.

(Sufian Emmar) CASE MANAGER: Wendy Rhoades (512-974-7719, wendy.rhoades@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant commercial – liquor sales (CS-1) district zoning. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: July 20, 2021: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: August 26, 2021: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: None at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject rezoning area is a 2,003 square foot unoccupied lease space in a larger commercial building under construction and zoned neighborhood commercial – conditional overlay (LR-CO) by a 1998 case. The commercial development situated at the northeast corner of West Gate Boulevard and Davis Lane has driveways to both streets, and contains recently opened food sales and service station uses. There is a gas pipeline easement and apartments under construction to the north (P; MF-2-CO), single family residences to the east (SF-2), detached condominiums and Cowan Elementary School across Davis Lane to the south (SF-6-CO; RR), and undeveloped land across West Gate Boulevard to the west (LR- CO). Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and A-1 (Aerial View). The Applicant proposes commercial – liquor sales (CS-1) district zoning in order to occupy the lease space with a liquor store use. 1 of 13B-3 C14-2021-0095 Page 2 As information, AISD’s Cowan Elementary School is approximately 370 feet to the south, as measured from the southwest property corner at the West Gate / Davis intersection to the northwest corner of Kentish Drive which is part of the school property. City Code and the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Code prohibit liquor sales use within 300 feet of a church, public school, public hospital, day care or child care facility, and the proposed rezoning area meets this requirement. BASIS FOR RECOMMENDATION 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. The proposed zoning should allow for a reasonable use of the property. The commercial – liquor sales (CS-1) zoning district is intended for commercial and industrial activities of a service nature which typically have operating characteristics or traffic service requirements generally incompatible with residential environments, and specifically includes liquor sales as a permitted use. 2. Staff recommends the Applicant’s request based on the property’s access …

ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: July 6, 2021 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 33B-4 2 ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is an undeveloped area that takes access Anderson Mill Road.

The property will take access to an arterial roadway, Anderson Mill Road, and is located adjacent to commercial uses that front FM 620 Road to the south and west.

ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE: C14-2021-0096 (Rezoning of 8500 Bluegrass Dr) DISTRICT: 10 ADDRESS: 8500 Bluegrass Drive ZONING FROM: LR TO: SF-2 SITE AREA: 2.0447 acres PROPERTY OWNERS: Ken Schiller and Steve and Ivete Stowers AGENT: City of Austin - Housing and Planning Department CASE MANAGER: Sherri Sirwaitis (512-974-3057, sherri.sirwaitis@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends SF-2, Single Family-Standard Lot District, zoning. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: July 20, 2021 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 18B-6 C14-2021-0096 2 ISSUES: The property owners currently have one house on Lot 1-A and a second house on Lot 2- A. They do not plan to add any more houses to the property. Because of the location of the original Lot 8, that abutted both of their lots (please see Exhibit C), the owners re-subdivided the lots incorporating the property at 8500 Bluegrass Drive (the 2.0447 acre LR zoned portion) into Lot 1-A and Lot 2-A through subdivision case C8-2019-0196.0A. Therefore, this property is now part of Lot 1-A and part of Lot 2-A Block A, Great Hills Phase B according to Document No. 202000083 (please see Exhibit D). On March 17, 2020, the owners filed a rezoning case to downzone the 2.0447 acre area from LR to SF-2 as this area was now part of their single-family residential lots. The case was heard by the Zoning and Platting Commission on June 16, 2020 and the Commission approved the staff's recommendation of SF-2 zoning by consent (10-0, Commissioner A. Denkler-absent). The case proceeded to the City Council on August 27, 2020 and the Council approved SF-2 zoning on 1st reading only (6-5, Councilmembers P. Ellis, N. Harper-Madison, G. Casar, J. Flannigan and P. Renteria-No). After first reading, Councilmember Flannigan expressed that he wished that the rezoning request had been for LR-MU, instead of SF-2. Many of the Council members were not supportive of SF-2 zoning at this location and indicated that they were looking for a higher residential district or a mixed-use district to allow for more units in this area. On September 17, 2020, the case was heard at City Council for 2nd/3rd readings. The City Council denied the rezoning request by a vote of (5-6, with Council Members Garza, Flannigan, Casar, Ellis, Renteria and Harper-Madison - voting ‘No”). Therefore, the case failed and the property remains zoned as the LR, Neighborhood Commercial, district. Per LDC Sec. 25-2-247 - RESTRICTIONS ON …
