ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET SITE AREA: 1.71 acres DISTRICT: 2 TO: SF-6 CASE: C14-2022-0135 – 5807 Ross Road ZONING FROM: DR ADDRESS: 5807 Ross Road OWNER / AGENT: Radhe Investment Group - RIG 11 Series (Ravi Thakkar) CASE MANAGER: Wendy Rhoades, wendy.rhoades@austintexas.gov; (512) 974-7719 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant townhouse and condominium residence (SF-6) district zoning. For a summary of the basis of Staff’s recommendation, see the Case Manager Comments section of this report. ZONING AND PLATTING ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: December 6, 2022: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: January 26, 2023: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: None at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject rezoning area consists of one unplatted, generally rectangular shaped tract and contains one vacant single family residence on the east side of Ross Road, approximately 700 feet south of the Pearce Lane / Ross Road intersection. The property is zoned development reserve (DR) district since annexation into the full purpose City limits in 1986. It is located just north of a narrow rectangular shaped “landscape area” lot on Sky Harbor Drive and south of platted lots within the Los Cielos subdivision. The rezoning area does not have access to Angel Drive, a cul-de-sac that terminates just to the north. Ross Road features single family residences on the east side (SF-4A; I-SF-4A) and low density residential and undeveloped properties on the west side (County). Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and A-1 (Aerial Exhibit). The Applicant has requested townhouse and condominium residence (SF-6) district zoning in order to construct 16 residential units on the property, served by a cul-de-sac extending east 31 of 10 of Ross Road. The requested SF-6 zoning designation does allow for the clustering of the proposed units which would allow for more flexibility with the potential design and the maximization of common open space on-site. The district has a maximum building height of 35 feet and a maximum building cover of 40%. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. The townhouse & condominium (SF-6) district is the designation for a moderate density single-family residential, duplex, two-family, townhouse, or condominium use on a lot that is a minimum of 5,750 square feet. An SF-6 district designation may be applied to a use in an existing single-family or smaller multi-family residential neighborhood with moderately sized lots or to new development with lots that …

PROPERTY OWNER: SUNGOLD SM LLC (Arjun Demla) AGENT: Bennett Consulting (Rodney K. Bennett) CASE MANAGER: Sherri Sirwaitis (512-974-3057, sherri.sirwaitis@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMEDATION: The staff recommendation is to grant GR-MU, Community Commercial Services- Mixed Use, Combining District zoning. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: December 6, 2022 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 41 of 11 ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is and undeveloped lot fronting onto Ida Ridge Drive. To the north, there are undeveloped lots and office and day care facility uses. To the south, there is a parking lot for a religious assembly use (New Life Church). Across Ida Ridge Drive to the east, there is an office complex and a concrete plant. The large lot to the west contains a shopping center (Market at Wells Branch) located at the corner of Burnet Road and W. Howard Lane. The applicant is requesting to down zone the property and to add a mixed-use overlay because they would like to develop approximately 69 multifamily units on the site. The staff is recommending GR-MU zoning at this location because the property is within an area that contains a mixture of residential and commercial uses. This site meets the intent of the GR, Community Commercial District, as it fronts onto a Level 3 (collector street/minor arterial) roadway and is near the intersection with a major arterial roadway, W. Howard Lane. GR-MU zoning would be consistent with the current GR-MU, GR-CO and GR zoning to the north and west of this site. The addition of the MU combining would provide more opportunities for the development of these lots with residential uses in support of the goals stated in the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan and the Strategic Housing Blueprint. The proposed zoning will create a transition from the commercial (GR, CS-1) zoning along Burnet Road/Mopac Expressway frontage road to the west to the office (GO) and multifamily (MF-3-CO) zoning across Ida Ridge Drive to the east. The applicant agrees with the staff recommendation. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. Community commercial (GR) district is the designation for an office or other commercial use that serves neighborhood and community needs and that generally …

The building configuration and placement on the property was based on lot configuration, existing topography, and roadways connectivity.

From: To: Subject: Date: Wendy, Rhoades, Wendy Peaceful Hill Rezoning Sunday, December 4, 2022 4:40:19 PM *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** I'm writing on behalf of our adjacent neighbors just across South Boggy Creek. When the new apartments were approved at 7400 South Congress just beside my home at 301 Blackberry, we were able to keep the entry and exit to those new buildings channeled out onto South Congress, and avoided having our Blackberry connected as a through street to Congress to provide a rear access. I notice in the case of this new and otherwise similar apartment development just across the creek from us that Foremost is being planned as a through street in the name of "connectivity." It will completely change the existing character of the residential neighborhood if Foremost becomes a connector from Peaceful Hill all the way through to I- 35. Providing denser housing on public transit routes is a worthy goal, but changing the character of an existing neighborhood is a sacrilege, and should be avoided at all costs. The same is true of forcing an existing residential neighborhood to accept the presence of four story apartments towers over the current single story owner occupied private homes. Connectivity and denser housing are worthwhile goals, but not in the context of ruining the quality of life of people who have invested years of their earnings in a quiet and calm existence that will be destroyed by this proposed new group of dense apartments. Peaceful hill should be granted the same right to a deeply wooded set-back and no heavily traveled connector street that was afforded to our neighborhood just to the north of them by a few blocks. Please, be considerate. Thank you. ~Ed Miller CAUTION: This email was received at the City of Austin, from an EXTERNAL source. Please use caution when clicking links or opening attachments.
