Austin Water (Joanette Aird) 625 E 10th St AUSTIN, Texas, 78701 K Friese & Associates (Jennifer Sullivan) 1120 S Cap of Tx Hwy, The Setting II, Suite 100 Austin, Tx 78746 (512) 338-1784 AGENT: Harris Branch CASE MANAGER: Renee Johns, (512) 974-2711 or renee.johns@austintexas.gov WATERSHED: NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN: N/A PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The applicant proposes an expansion to an existing wastewater treatment plant located in northeast Austin. The expansion includes construction of a headworks structure, FEB tank, new treatment unit, expansion of the wet well, cloth filter, sludge holding tank, chemical containment area, odor control facility, concrete flow splitting structure, associated piping, and a paved access road. COMMISSION REQUESTS: CONDITIONAL USE REQUEST: The proposed development will expand the existing wastewater treatment plant. The site is 127,630.8 square feet with 30.8% impervious coverage proposed. Sites zoned Public (P) greater than one acre in size are a Conditional Use that require Land Use Commission approval according to Land Development Code section 25- 2-625. 25 YEAR EXPIRATION REQUEST: Austin Water is requesting a 25 year expiration on this site plan permit once approved by commission. The 25 year site plan request is based on the need to update wastewater infrastructure to keep up with Austin’s population growth. Rather than returning to commission every three years to request extensions, both DSD and Austin Water staff agreed to the long request and phased approach as outlined in 25-5-21. If the 25 year expiration request is granted, future necessary expansions to the plant will be more efficient with a quicker review and permitting process. SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: CONDTIONAL USE: Staff recommends approval of the Conditional Use Permit. The existing wastewater plant is expanding in order to meet the demands of Austin’s population growth. Sites zoned Public (P) greater than one acre in size are a Conditional Use that require Land Use Commission approval according to Land Development Code section 25- 2-625. The site plan will comply with all requirements of the Land Development Code prior to its release. 25 YEAR EXPIRATION: Staff recommends approval with conditions to allow this site plan permit to expire after 25 years instead of three. This expansion is proposed in three phases. Under 25-5-21(B), commission approval …

The Imagine Austin policies referenced as applicable to this case omit the following Imagine Austin references pertinent to proposals for potential zoning changes in the Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone: • • LUT P21. Ensure that redevelopment in the Edwards Aquifer’s recharge and contributing zones maintains the quantity and quality of recharge of the aquifer. LUT P22. Protect Austin’s natural resources and environmental systems by limiting land use and transportation development in sensitive environmental areas and preserving areas of open space. • CE P2. Conserve Austin’s natural resources systems by limiting development in sensitive environmental areas, including the Edwards Aquifer, its contributing and recharge zones, and endangered species habitat. • CFS P12. Maintain or enhance the existing rate of recharge in the Edward’s Aquifer. Additionally, please note that according to the City’s own Imagine Austin Indicator Dashboard (regarding Priority Program 2 – Sustainably Manage our Water Resources), we are heading in the “wrong direction” when it comes to development within the Edwards Aquifer zones (https://data.austintexas.gov/stories/s/Sustainably-Manage- Our-Water-Resources/iv2t-ch3h). The data reflects that approximately a quarter of the development that has occurred since 2008 has been in the City’s portion of the Edwards Aquifer and that over 50% of the Recharge Zone within the city is developed. With appreciation, Carrie
