ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: May 18, 2021: April 20, 2021: APPROVED A POSTPONEMENT RQUEST BY THE NEIGHBORHOOD TO MAY 18, 2021 [H. SMITH; D. KING – 2ND] (9-0) J. KIOLBASSA – ABSENT; ONE VACANCY ON THE COMMISSION CITY COUNCIL ACTION: To be scheduled ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: The Beacon Ridge neighborhood group has requested a second postponement until June 1, 2021. Please refer to correspondence attached at the back of the Staff report. 1 of 36B-3C14-2020-0151 Page 2 The Applicant and residents of the Beaconridge III subdivision met on March 6, 2021 and a second meeting occurred on April 20, 2021. On May 10th, the zoning case manager hosted a meeting that included City drainage engineering and watershed engineering staff, the Applicant, and eight (8) interested neighbors to discuss the Applicant’s proposed drainage infrastructure that would be implemented at the site plan stage. The Applicant and neighborhood residents are also scheduled to meet on Friday, May 14th. Correspondence received in support and in opposition to the Applicant’s request is attached at the back of the packet. The Applicant has prepared an analysis of the proposed driveway on South 1st Street. Please refer to Exhibit C. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject rezoning area consists of four platted lots, contains a flag and flagpole sales company, a single family residence and is otherwise undeveloped. The property has frontage on South 1st Street and access to the terminus of Orr Drive. A 2012-2013 rezoning case covered the north and east portions of the site (6.23 acres) and Council approved neighborhood commercial – mixed use – conditional overlay (LR-MU-CO) along the South 1st Street frontage and townhome and condominium residence – conditional overlay (SF-6- CO) for the remainder. The Conditional Overlay limits the number of vehicle trips to 2,000 per day and limits access to Orr Drive to bicycle, pedestrian, and emergency ingress and egress. The current rezoning application includes two other platted lots which contain the flag sales use and a single family residence, and are zoned development reserve (DR) and single family residence (SF-2). There are single family residences in the Beaconridge III subdivision to the north and east (SF-2), an upholstery shop, and a church to the south (DR; IP-CO), and single family residences in the Buckingham Estates Phase II subdivision and two churches across South 1st Street to the west (SF-2). The Imagine Austin Growth Concept Map identifies South 1st Street as a Mixed-Use Corridor which is a reflection of both land uses along a roadway and the available transportation options. Please refer to Exhibits A and A-1 – Zoning Map and Aerial Exhibit. The Applicant’s request is to rezone the property to the multi-family residence – moderate- high density – conditional overlay (MF-4-CO) combining district so that it may be developed with up to 290 apartment units. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. The multi-family residence – moderate-high density (MF-4) district is intended for residential and multi-family use with a maximum density of up to 54 units per acre, depending on unit size and mix. This district is appropriate for multi-family residential areas located near supporting transportation and commercial facilities, generally in more centrally 2 of 36B-3C14-2020-0151 Page 3 located areas. The Conditional Overlay (-CO) combining district may be applied in combination with any base district. The district is intended to provide flexible and adaptable use or site development regulations by requiring standards tailored to individual properties. 2. Intensive multi-family zoning should be located on highways and major arterials. 3. Zoning changes should promote compatibility with adjacent and nearby uses. Staff recommends the Applicant’s request for MF-4-CO zoning given its access to a major arterial (Level 3) street and adjacency to commercially owned properties. The Staff recommended Conditional Overlay addresses development standards that enhance compatibility with the adjacent single family residences in providing additional setbacks, vegetative buffers, and fencing between the existing single family residences and the proposed multifamily residences. As information, the Staff recommendation for a 50 feet height is within the height range allowed by the MF-4 zoning district and can be achieved at a distance of 200 feet from the closest single family residential lots in the Beaconridge III subdivision. As information, by City Code, a 40-foot height limit or a 3-story building could be achieved 50 feet from the east and north property lines and that height limit would continue to apply up to a distance of 100 feet. Also, the maximum height allowed by the adjacent SF-2 zoned residences is 35 feet in height because the property is located outside of the defined McMansion area established by Code.

Orr Subdivision recorded in September 1968 (C8S-68-156) and Lot 2 of the P.F. Orr Subdivision (C8S-64-070). Please refer to Exhibit B. The subject property was annexed into the City limits on November 15, 1984 (C7A-83-017 A). A 2012 rezoning case covered Lots 1-A and 1-B of the Resubdivision of Lot 1 of the P.F. Orr Subdivision (C14-2012-0060, total of 6.23 acres). On October 31, 2013, Council approved LR-MU-CO zoning for Tract 1 (1.82 acres) and SF-6-CO zoning for Tract 2 (4.41 acres). There are no current site plan applications on the property. Three previous site plans on the property covered the LR-MU-CO and SF-6-CO rezoning area. The most recent site plan reviewed in 2019 was for 10,607 square feet of commercial uses, 30 multifamily units and 75 condominiums (SP-2019-0268C). The site plan has expired. EXISTING STREET CHARACTERISTICS: Name Pavement Classification ROW Sidewalks Bicycle Route South 1st Street 80 feet 45 feet Level 3 Orr Drive 50 feet 30 feet Level 1 No No Shared Lane Not Applicable OTHER STAFF COMMENTS: Comprehensive Planning This rezoning case is located on the east side of South 1st Street, on an 8.87 acre tract consisting of four address points, with one of properties containing a house. This property is located in an area that does not have an adopted neighborhood plan but is located along the South 1st Imagine Austin Activity Corridor. Surrounding land uses include residential uses, a church, a park and an elementary school to the north; to the south are commercial and retail uses and a church; to the east is undeveloped land and residential uses; and to the west Capital Metro (within ¼ mile) Yes Yes 5 of 36B-3C14-2020-0151 Page 6 is a large single family subdivision. Over the last decade, South First Street has experienced an acceleration in transitioning away from single family houses to a variety of commercial, office and multifamily uses along this heavily traveled thoroughfare. The proposal for the property calls for the demolition of the existing house and the construction of a 290-unit multifamily apartment complex, consisting of one to three bedroom units. Connectivity Public sidewalks are located along one side of South First Street in this area (on the west side of the South 1st Street) and the public sidewalks system along South First are incomplete. A CapMetro stop is located directly in front of the property. A public school and park are located within a quarter mile of the subject property. The mobility and connectivity options in this area are fair due to the lack of a complete public sidewalk system and bike lanes, which limits access to nearby goods and services beyond using a car. Imagine Austin The Imagine Austin Growth Concept Map identifies this project as being located along an Activity Corridor. Activity Corridors are intended to allow people to reside, work, shop, access services, people watch, recreate, and hang out without traveling far distances. They are characterized by a variety of activities and types of buildings located along the roadway — shopping, restaurants and cafés, parks, schools, single-family houses, apartments, public buildings, houses of worship, mixed-use buildings, and offices. The following IACP policies are applicable to this case: • LUT P3. Promote development in compact centers, communities, or along corridors that are connected by roads and transit that are designed to encourage walking and bicycling, and reduce health care, housing and transportation costs. • LUT P4. Protect neighborhood character by directing growth to areas of change that includes designated redevelopment areas, corridors and infill sites. Recognize that different neighborhoods have different characteristics and new and infill development should be sensitive to the predominant character of these communities. • LUT P5. Create healthy and family-friendly communities through development that includes a mix of land uses and housing types and affords realistic opportunities for transit, bicycle, and pedestrian travel and provides both community gathering spaces, parks and safe outdoor play areas for children. Based upon this property being situated along an Activity Corridor, which supports multifamily development, but the incomplete mobility options in the area that makes it difficult to safely walk or bike to access nearby goods, services, parks and school in the area by bike or on foot, this project only partially supports the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan. It is hoped in the near future that a complete public sidewalk system is installed along both sides of South 1st Street to make this a more complete community. 6 of 36B-3C14-2020-0151 Page 7 7 of 36B-3C14-2020-0151 Page 8 Drainage The developer is required to submit a pre- and post-development drainage analysis at the subdivision and site plan stage of the development process. The City’s Land Development Code and Drainage Criteria Manual require that the Applicant demonstrate through engineering analysis that the proposed development will have no identifiable adverse impact on surrounding properties. Environmental The site is not located over the Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone. The site is in the South Boggy Creek Watershed of the Colorado River Basin, which is classified as a Suburban Watershed by Chapter 25-8 of the City's Land Development Code. The site is in the Desired Development Zone. Under current watershed regulations, development or redevelopment on this site will be subject to the following impervious cover limits: Development Classification % of Gross Site Area % of Gross Site Area Single-Family (minimum lot size 5750 sq. ft.) Other Single-Family or Duplex Multifamily Commercial 50% 55% 60% 80% with Transfers 60% 60% 70% 90% According to floodplain maps there is no floodplain within or adjacent to the project location. Standard landscaping and tree protection will be required in accordance with LDC 25-2 and 25-8 for all development and/or redevelopment. At this time, site specific information is unavailable regarding vegetation, areas of steep slope, or other environmental features such as bluffs, springs, canyon rimrock, caves, sinkholes, and wetlands. Under current watershed regulations, development or redevelopment requires water quality control with increased capture volume and control of the 2-year storm on site. Impervious Cover Within the South Boggy Creek watershed, the maximum impervious cover allowed by the MF-4 zoning district is 70%, which is a consistent figure between the zoning and watershed regulations. 8 of 36B-3C14-2020-0151 Page 9 Site Plan and Compatibility Standards Any new development is subject to Subchapter E. Design Standards and Mixed Use. Additional comments will be made when the site plan is submitted. The site is subject to compatibility standards. Along all property lines, the following standards apply: a. No structure may be built within 25 feet of the property line. b. No structure in excess of two stories or 30 feet in height may be constructed within 50 feet of the property line. feet of the property line. c. No structure in excess of three stories or 40 feet in height may be constructed within 100 d. No parking or driveways are allowed within 25 feet of the property line. e. A landscape area at least 25 feet wide is required along the property line. In addition, a fence, berm, or dense vegetation must be provided to screen adjoining properties from views of parking, mechanical equipment, storage, and refuse collection. Additional design regulations from LDC 25-2-1067 include the following: • Exterior lighting must be hooded or shielded so that the light source is not directly visible from adjacent property: (1) in an urban family residence (SF-5) or more restrictive district (2) on which a use permitted in an SF-5 or more restrictive zoning district is located • The noise level of mechanical equipment may not exceed 70 decibels at the property line. • A permanently placed refuse receptacle, including a dumpster, may not be located 20 feet or less from property: (1) in an SF-5 or more restrictive zoning district; or (2) on which a use permitted in an SF-5 or more restrictive zoning district is located. PARD – Planning & Design Review Parkland dedication will be required for the new residential units proposed by this development, multifamily with MF-4 zoning, at the time of subdivision or site plan, per City Code § 25-1-601. Whether the requirement shall be met with fees in-lieu or dedicated land will be determined using the criteria in City Code Title 25, Article 14, as amended. Should fees in-lieu be required, those fees shall be used toward park investments in the form of land acquisition and/or park amenities within the surrounding area, per the Parkland Dedication Operating Procedures § 14.3.11 and City Code § 25-1-607 (B)(1) & (2). If the Applicant wishes to discuss parkland dedication requirements in advance of site plan or subdivision applications, please contact this reviewer: thomas.rowlinson@austintexas.gov. At the Applicant’s request, PARD can provide an early determination of whether fees in-lieu of land will be allowed. 9 of 36B-3C14-2020-0151 Page 10 Transportation Assessment of required transportation mitigation, including the potential dedication of right of way and easements and participation in roadway and other multi-modal improvements, will occur at the time of site plan application. A Traffic Impact Analysis shall be required at the time of site plan if triggered per LDC 25-6-113. Austin Water Utility The landowner intends to serve the site with City of Austin water and wastewater utilities. The landowner, at own expense, will be responsible for providing any water and wastewater utility improvements, offsite main extensions, utility relocations and or abandonments required by the land use. The water and wastewater utility plan must be reviewed and approved by Austin Water for compliance with City criteria and suitability for operation and maintenance. Depending on the development plans submitted, water and or wastewater service extension requests may be required. All water and wastewater construction must be inspected by the City of Austin. The landowner must pay the City inspection fee with the utility construction. The landowner must pay the tap and impact fee once the landowner makes an application for a City of Austin water and wastewater utility tap permit.

RE: 8401 S 1st Wayfinder Multifamily Development Driveway Analysis Memorandum This memorandum documents the results of a driveway analysis for the proposed Wayfinder Multifamily Development located at 8401 S 1st Street in Austin, Texas. The objective of this memo is to project site traffic onto the existing roadway network via the proposed site driveway along S 1st. General Project Description The proposed Wayfinder Multifamily Development will consist of a maximum of 290 multifamily units. The site is currently mostly vacant, undeveloped land with one flag and flagpole sales business. Land uses for the development are summarized below in Table 1. Table 1 – Proposed Land Uses Land Uses Multifamily Size 290 Units ITE Code 221 The proposed development will have one access point located on S 1st Street directly across from Great Britain Boulevard. Figure 1 shows the proposed site plan.mj Exhibit C 15 of 36B-3Figure 1 – Proposed Site Plan 16 of 36B-3Site Traffic Site-generated traffic estimates are determined through a process known as trip generation. Rates and equations are applied to each proposed land use to estimate traffic generated by the development during a specific time interval. The acknowledged source for trip generation rates is the 10th edition of the Trip Generation Manual published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE). ITE has established trip rates in nationwide studies of similar land uses. The trips indicated are one-way trips or trip ends, where one vehicle entering and exiting the site is counted as two trips (one inbound trip and one outbound trip). Internal Capture is the tendency for customers or residents to visit several parts of a mixed-use development in one trip but be counted twice in the trip generation since the formula assumes the land uses are isolated. For this site, there are no internal capture trips. Pass-by trips are existing vehicles on the adjacent roadways that choose to visit the new site, and then return to their original path. Pass-by trips do not reduce the driveway volumes projected for the site. Pass-by reduction was not factored into determining the total number of trips that would make use of the site driveway. There were no internal capture or Pass-By reductions for this site. Table 2 summarizes the resulting Daily and Weekday AM and PM peak hour trip generation for the purposes of the driveway analysis. Table 2 – Site Trip Generation Land Uses Quantity Units ITE Code Daily Trips AM Peak Hour PM Peak Hour In Out Total In Out Total Multifamily Housing (Mid-Rise) Dwelling Units 290 221 1,579 25 72 97 75 48 123 Internal Capture Trip Reduction Pass-By Trip Reduction - - - - - - - - - - - - - - TOTAL TRIPS 1,579 25 72 97 75 48 123 ITE 10th Edition average trip rates were used for trip generation. Trip Distribution and Assignment Site traffic is distributed into and out of the site driveway and onto the street system based on the area street system characteristics, existing traffic patterns, “journey to work” assumptions, and the location of driveway access to/from the site. To determine existing traffic patterns, historical 2019 peak hour turning movement counts were obtained from the nearby intersection at S 1st & Slaughter. These were used to project peak hour directional volumes near the site. 2018 TxDOT Daily counts were also obtained to determine daily traffic patterns. These counts were taken just north of Slaughter on S 1st. The projected two-way peak hourly volumes and daily volumes at the count sites near the project area were used to proportionally assign site trips to the study roadway network via South 1st to the north and South 1st to the south. Figure 2 shows the count data locations used for the analysis. 17 of 36B-3Figure 2 – TCDS Count Data Locations Assignment of Site Trips Table 3 and Figure 3 show the resulting weekday AM and PM peak hour turning movements at site driveways after distributing the trip generation totals in Table 2. Table 3 – Projected Driveway Site Trip Turning Movement Volumes Driveway Distribution AM PM Right In (From South 1st northbound into the site) Right Out (From Driveway 1 onto S 1st northbound) Left In (From South 1st southbound into the site) Left Out (From Driveway 1 onto S 1st southbound) 13 36 13 36 38 24 38 24 18 of 36B-3Figure 3 – Site Trips Table 4 shows the proposed traffic as a percentage of traffic of the existing condition when compared to 2018 S 1st bi-directional daily counts from TxDOT and 2019 peak hour turning movement counts. It should be noted that these counts have not been altered with a background growth rate.

The proposed trips are expected to distribute both north and south of the site at an equal rate. The distribution of site traffic will increase traffic by a maximum of 6% in the AM peak hour and 7% in each the PM peak hour and daily traffic. The proposed development has also agreed to build a new traffic signal at the intersection of Great Britain Blvd and S 1st Street. Along with the proposed traffic signal the development will add northbound and southbound left turn lanes. The proposed turn lanes will increase safety and allow thru vehicles to avoid left-turners awaiting a gap in traffic. The proposed layout of Great Britain Blvd & S 1st St is shown below Figure 4.

The applicant is seeking rezoning for the property to develop a multifamily project. My property is located directly west of the proposed multifamily development and therefore I will be one of the primary adjacent owners affected by the approval of this project. I strongly support the proposed rezoning and future development of the subject property. Specifically, I am looking forward to traffic improvements in connection with this multifamily project that will be located along South 1st Street, including dual turn lanes and a traffic signal at Great Britain Blvd and South 1st St. These improvements should help both reduce congestion and increase safety getting into and out of the neighborhood at Great Britain Blvd. In addition, I feel that the property owner should have the right to use their land the way they wish as long as they aren’t damaging the environment. The plan seems to address any negative effects for run off, safety and other concerns. If they wish to build an apartment complex, I support their use. My main concern as mentioned is traffic control which I really like their plan. I strongly urge the city grant their use. Property owner rights should be strengthened in this city.

This will be the last one we will request. Please know I tried to make it all come together this week, but we simply have run out of bandwidth to get this done and we are all now feeling rushed to wrap it all up prior to the currently scheduled zap meeting. There is simply too many people involved and too much data to process. Please see my request to the zoning and platting commission below. Thank you – Jeff To whom it may concern Zoning and Platting Commission, On behalf of the neighborhood group who have been meeting on the Re: 8401 S. 1st St. (ongoing Rezoning discussions) We are requesting a postponement to the next scheduled ZAP meeting for Tuesday, June 1, 2021 at 6 p.m. Many neighbors have asked me to request an extension. And the internal planning group feels like we will not have enough time to meet with the developer and then meet again to thoughtfully respond and make final decisions to support or oppose this zoning change request. As currently there is not enough info to make a final decision. The amount of data to process throughout the group is overwhelming and just trying to manage 30+ people meeting regularly has become a full- time job for the past several months. We simply need more time to make a thoughtful decision that will have far reaching impact for all of us. We are not taking this lightly. We are very concerned about the impact this will have to our neighborhood and quality of life. Thank you for considering our request to postpone the zap meeting to 6/1/2021 This is being sent on behalf of the Beacon Ridge neighborhood group. Everyone is on copy.
