SUTTLE (512) 435-2310 rsuttle@abaustin.com July 27, 2020 Denise Lucas, Director City of Austin, Development Services Department 505 Barton Springs Road Austin, Texas 78704 Re: Site Plan Extensions for The Offices At Ribelin Ranch Phase I (SPC-2007- 0497C(XT2).MGA) and Kallestad Labratories-PRA (SP-2007-0549B(XT2)) (the “Application”) Dear Mrs. Lucas: Our firm represents Austin Baptist Church (“Church”), the owner of the above referenced properties. The Church has owned and occupied the properties since January 12, 2011. They have constructed buildings and infrastructure in furtherance of its project and respectfully requests to extend the approved site plans for The Offices At Ribelin Ranch Phase I and Kallestad Labratories-PRA Site Plan referenced by City of Austin Case No. SPC-2007- 0497C(XT2).MGA and SP-2007-0549B(XT2) (the “Project”). This request is made in accordance with Section 25-5-63 of the Land Development Code (“LDC”). Under Section 25-5-63(C), the Land Use Commission may extend the expiration date of a released site plan beyond the date established if the Land Use Commission determines that the request complies with the requirements for extension by the director under Section 25-5-62. According to Section 25-5-62(C), an applicant must satisfy provisions (C)(1) and (2), however, under provision (1), the applicant must comply with any, but not all, of subsections (a) through (d). For this project, the Applicant has satisfied subsection (b), (c), and (d). In accordance with subsection (b), the applicant filed the original site plan with a good faith expectation that the site plan would be constructed. However it has taken much longer than originally expected since fundraising is required to complete the Project and the COVID-19 pandemic has hindered these efforts. Since Austin Baptist Church must raise funds to be able to construct facilities, they would like the ability to extend the site plan for approximately fifteen years until August 31, 2036. For background, the existing site plans were granted a Land Use Commission approved extension until August 31, 2021 through Austin Case No. SPC-2007-0497C(XT2).MGA and SP- 2007-0549B(XT2). Furthermore, subsection (c) and (d) requires that an applicant must construct at least one structure shown on the original site plan that is suitable for permanent occupancy, {W0972707.2} 3 of 6B-9ARMBRUST & BROWN, PLLC Page 2 and that a significant portion of the required infrastructure is complete. A majority of the development has been constructed with the exception of a maintenance building and additional parking. Similar to provision (1), provision (2) requires that an applicant satisfy either subsection (a) or subsection (b). Subsection (a) states, “the director determines that if a traffic impact analysis was submitted with the application for site plan approval, the assumptions and conclusions of the traffic impact analysis are valid.” Under the original site plans submitted for the property the development assumptions of the originally approved TIA, that was submitted with the Planned Unit Development zoning case (C814-04-0061), are still valid as the land uses and densities that have been constructed to-date do not exceed what was originally contemplated. The original site plan (SPC-2007-0497C) assumed 124,000 square feet of general office as the land use. The proposed use, which has been mostly constructed as mentioned above, had a difference in daily trips between office and religious assembly use of 235 fewer trips than what was previously approved. This information was provided and approved with the previous site plan extension. I’d like to have a call to discuss this unique situation. In the meantime if you have any questions, comments, or need additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you in advance, Respectfully, Richard T.
