(Jonathan Sosebee) CASE MANAGER: Nancy Estrada (512-974-7617, nancy.estrada@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMEDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant general commercial services (CS) district zoning. For a summary of the basis of Staff’s recommendation, see pages 2. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: June 4, 2024: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: None at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject rezoning area is 2.76 acres and located at the northeast corner of State Highway 130 frontage lanes and Pearce Lane. The subject property is part of a 10.97 acre undeveloped tract that is partially in the City of Austin full-purpose jurisdiction and partially in the ETJ. The 2.76 acres that are in the full-purpose jurisdiction are currently zoned development reserve (DR) district zoning. There is undeveloped acreage directly to the east as well as a manufactured home park (GR- CO; MH-CO), single family residences on large lots to the south (County) and the northbound frontage lanes of SH 130 to the west. Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and A-1 (Aerial Exhibit). C14-2024-0028 Page 2 The Applicant is requesting general commercial (CS) district zoning for the 2.76 acres located within the full-purpose jurisdiction in order to be able to develop a convenience store that includes a service station. Access is proposed from both the frontage of SH 130 and Pearce Lane. Access from SH 130 will be coordinated through TxDot. Access from Pearce Lane is within the jurisdiction of Travis County. Staff is recommending the Applicant's request for CS given its location at the intersection of a State Highway and an arterial roadway, and commercial zoning would enable the provision of goods and services to several single family residential neighborhoods in the vicinity. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. The proposed general commercial services (CS) district zoning is intended for commercial or industrial uses that typically have operating characteristics or traffic service requirements generally incompatible with residential environments. 2. Zoning should promote the policy of locating retail and more intensive zoning near the intersections of arterial roadways or at the intersections of arterials and …
