ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: October 18, 2022: October 4, 2022: APPROVED A POSTPONEMENT REQUEST BY THE NEIGHBORHOOD TO OCTOBER 18, 2022. [R. WOODY; C. ACOSTA – 2ND] (7-0) A. DENKLER, B. GREENBERG, H. SMITH, L. STERN – ABSENT 1 of 722C14-2022-0077 Page 2 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: November 3, 2022: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: The Applicant has discussed this case with representatives of the Park Ridge Owners Association, Park Ridge Gardens, and the Peaceful Hill Preservation Association. Correspondence received in support of and in opposition to the Applicant’s request is attached at the back of this packet. On September 28, 2022, the Applicant amended the request from / to LI-CO and CS-CO for removal of the daily 300 vehicle trip limit to CS-CO with the -CO prohibiting certain uses, limiting height, and establishing a vegetative buffer along the east property line. The Applicant’s proposed -CO has been incorporated in the Staff recommendation. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property is developed with a construction sales and services use, and located at the northeast corner of Peaceful Hill Lane and Ralph Ablanedo Drive. The property previously operated as a vehicle impound yard facility (operational prior to annexation in 1984) and a six-foot concrete wall along the entire Peaceful Hill frontage (no existing vehicular access) and along Ralph Ablanedo Drive except for two driveways serving the site minimized the visual impact from these roadways, and remains intact. In mid-2005 the property operated as a vehicle impound yard (a non-conforming use) and Council approved general commercial services – conditional overlay (CS-CO – 0.4533 acres, Tract 2) for a 35-foot wide tract along the Peaceful Hill frontage and limited industrial services – conditional overlay (LI-CO – 3.5443 acres, Tract 1) for the remainder of the Property. The Conditional Overlay limits development of the Property to 300 daily vehicle trips for both Tracts 1 and 2, prohibited basic industry and resource extraction on Tract 1, and limited height to 35 feet on Tract 2. A private Restrictive Covenant with Park Ridge Owners’ Association, Inc. established hours of operation. Please refer to Exhibits B and B- 1 – Zoning Ordinance and Private Restrictive Covenant. The surrounding area contains a mixture of residential, and intensive commercial and industrial uses. There are two light manufacturing uses directly north (LI; LI-CO); a single family residential subdivision further north and east (SF-4A-CO); an industrial park further east (LI-CO; single family residences, automotive repair, multifamily residences (under construction) and vehicle storage uses to the south (SF-4A-CO; LI-CO; GR-MU); and a landscaping company, single family homes, manufactured homes, undeveloped land, and a City fire station and police substation across Peaceful Hill Lane to the west (W/LO-CO; DR; SF-2; SF-1, GR; P). Please refer to Exhibits A and A-1 – Zoning Map and Aerial Exhibit. 2 of 722C14-2022-0077 Page 3 The Applicant proposes to rezone the tract to the general commercial services use – conditional overlay (CS-CO) district in order to construct a 27,000 square foot rock climbing gym (a personal improvement services use) and up to 4,000 square feet of general retail uses. The Applicant’s request includes retaining the 35-foot height limit along the west 35 feet of the property as approved in 2005 (Tract 2) and limiting height to 50 feet on the remainder of the property (Tract 1). Vehicular access to both Peaceful Hill Lane and Ralph Ablanedo Drive is proposed. Although the proposed uses are already allowed by CS-CO and LI-CO zoning, the proposed project exceeds the 300 daily vehicle trip limit established by the 2005 rezoning ordinance and resulted in the need to prepare a Neighborhood Traffic Analysis. Please refer to Attachment A – Neighborhood Traffic Analysis Memo and the Applicant’s correspondence. BASIS FOR 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. 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. The property has access to Peaceful Hill Lane and Ralph Ablanedo Drive, both of which are classified as Level 2 (collector) streets. 2. Zoning changes should promote an orderly and compatible relationship among land uses. The area surrounding the rezoning request is undergoing change in terms of land use and access. Until late-2005, the area included a mix of industrial, intensive commercial and low density residential zoning and uses has experienced some transition to an area that includes fewer industrial uses, and more active, area-serving commercial uses and denser residential developments. Some examples of pending and recently approved commercial and residential projects in the vicinity are detailed in the Area Case Histories table on pages 4 and 5. This pattern of growth has also resulted in the recently completed right-of-way extension of Ralph Ablanedo Drive to the IH 35 frontage road. The Applicant’s proposal for personal improvement services and retail uses would introduce a different type of commercial use to the immediate area, would be served by the adjacent residential neighborhoods, and is within four-tenths (4/10th) of a mile of the IH 35 frontage road. The proposed rezoning to CS-CO also removes approximately 3.5 acres of industrial zoning (which often present compatibility issues with adjacent and nearby single family residential use) from the property. The proposed -CO prohibits more intensive CS uses, limits height and requires a 30-foot wide vegetative buffer along the east property line adjacent to single family residences. The Neighborhood Traffic Analysis Memo calls for 3 of 722C14-2022-0077 Page 4 upgrading the property’s frontage on Peaceful Hill Lane and / or Ralph Ablanedo Drive to urban standards which include curb / gutter, sidewalk and bicycle facilities.

RELATED CASES: The rezoning area was annexed into the City limits in November 1984. Council approved CS-CO (the west 50 feet along the Peaceful Hill Lane frontage) and LI-CO zonings (remainder of the property) in June 2005 (C14-05-0045 – Pallas 4). The Conditional Overlay limits the CS-CO tract to a 35-foot height limit, prohibits basic industry, resource extraction and scrap and salvage uses on the LI-CO tract, and limits daily vehicle trips to 300 per day on both tracts. In May 2005, a private Restrictive Covenant was recorded and places restrictions on automotive sales and storage, and limits business hours of operation. The Housing and Planning Department is preparing an update to an industrial study 7 of 722Capital Metro (within ¼ mile) No C14-2022-0077 Page 8 study titled “Analysis of Industrial Land Use and Zoning in Austin, Texas” on the history and recent (as of May 2020) state of industrial land use in Austin. In consultation with Housing and Planning staff regarding a downzoning from LI to CS, the property is identified as one of a few LI zoned tracts in the area and not part of a larger industrial district / area, and therefore, does not present an issue.

Total Number of “Yes’s” 6 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. Impervious Cover The maximum impervious cover allowed by CS-CO zoning district is 80%, which is based on the more restrictive watershed regulations. Environmental The site is not located over the Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone. The site is in the South Boggy Creek Watershed and the Onion Creek Watershed, both 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. 9 of 722C14-2022-0077 Page 10 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. At this time, no information has been provided as to whether this property has any preexisting approvals that preempt current water quality or Code requirements. PARD – Planning & Design Review There are currently no parkland requirements for uses other than residential and hotel. Given that the application is for LI-CO and CS-CO to allow for indoor sports and recreation, there would not be parkland dedication requirements or parkland impacts at the time of site plan or subdivision. However, City Council is currently proposing the creation of parkland dedication requirements for commercial uses at the time of site plan and subdivision, which may become applicable to this project in the future. Site Plan Site plans will be required for any new development other than single-family or duplex residential. Any new development is subject to Subchapter E. Design Standards and Mixed Use. Additional comments will be made when the site plan is submitted. Any development which occurs in an SF-6 or less restrictive zoning district which is located 540 feet or less from property in an SF-5 or more restrictive zoning district will be subject to compatibility development regulations. Compatibility compliance will be required along the east property line adjacent to the SF-4A-CO zoned single family residences and to the south across Ralph Ablanedo Drive. • No structure in excess of two stories or 30 feet in height may be constructed within 50 • No structure in excess of three stories or 40 feet in height may be constructed within feet of the property line. 100 feet of the property line. • For a structure more than 100 feet but not more than 300 feet from property zoned SF-5 or more restrictive, height limitation is 40 feet plus one foot for each 10 feet of distance in excess of 100 feet from the property zoned SF-5 or more restrictive. • For a structure more than 300 feet but not more than 540 feet from property zoned SF-5 or more restrictive, height limitation is 60 feet. 10 of 722C14-2022-0077 Page 11 • An intensive recreational use, including a swimming pool, tennis court, ball court, or playground, may not be constructed 50 feet or less from property in an SF-5 or more restrictive zoning district. 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. Austin Transportation Department – Engineering Review A traffic impact analysis is not required as the proposal does not exceed the thresholds established in the Land Development Code. A Neighborhood Traffic Analysis is required and will be performed for this project by the Transportation Review staff. Results are provided in Attachment A (LDC 25-6-114). The ASMP requires a minimum of 72 feet of right-of-way for Ralph Ablanedo Drive. An additional 5 feet of right-of-way from the existing street centerline will need to be dedicated at site plan/subdivision in accordance with the ASMP (LDC 25-6-55). Sidewalks improvements are recommended. The ASMP requires a minimum of 72 feet of right-of-way for Peaceful Hill Lane. An additional 7 feet of right-of-way from the existing centerline will need to be dedicated at site plan/subdivision in accordance with the ASMP (LDC 25-6-55). Sidewalk improvements are recommended. Water / Wastewater 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. 11 of 722C14-2022-0077 Page 12 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.

(ATD); Joan Minyard EIT (ATD) Justin Good, P.E. (ATD) August 19, 2022 Neighborhood Traffic Analysis for 220 Ralph Ablanedo Rezoning Zoning Case Number C14-2022-0077 The Transportation Development Services (TDS) division has performed a Neighborhood Traffic Analysis (NTA) for the above referenced case and offers the following comments. The proposed development is located on a 3.99-acre tract at 220 Ralph Ablanedo Drive in south Austin. The site is currently zoned LI-CO and CS-CO and the intention is to remove the vehicle trip per day limit from the existing conditional overlay. Figure 1: Local Map Page 1 of 4 20 of 722Roadways The tract proposes access to Ralph Ablanedo Drive and Peaceful Hill Lane, both of which are classified as substandard collector streets. Ralph Ablanedo Drive has 74 feet of right-of-way, 22 feet of pavement width, two unstriped travel lanes, no curb and gutter, sidewalk on the south side of the street only, and no bicycle facilities. Peaceful Hill Lane has 54 feet of right- of-way, 18 feet of pavement width, two unstriped travel lanes, curb and gutter with sidewalk on the west side of the street only, and no bicycle facilities. Average 24-hour traffic volumes were collected on Ralph Ablanedo Drive and Peaceful Hill Lane on June 15, 2022. To account for school being out of session, traffic counts were also taken on South Congress Avenue where historic counts existed from when school was in session. The counts were compared and used to calculate a summer adjustment factor of 1.2, which was then applied to the counts taken on Ralph Abalnedo Drive and Peaceful Hill Lane. Based on these collected counts, average daily traffic volumes on Ralph Ablanedo Drive and Peaceful Hill Lane were 7,221 vehicles per day and 1,103 vehicles per day, respectively. Trip Generation and Traffic Analysis The zoning case assumes 27,000 square feet of rock climbing gym (ITE Code 434) and 4,000 square feet of retail (ITE Code 822). Based on the Institute of Transportation Engineer’s Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition, the proposed development will generate 658 vehicle trips per day. See Table 1 for a detailed breakdown of the trip generation. Table 1 – Trip Generation Land Use Rock Climbing Gym Strip Retail Plaza (<40k) TOTAL Size 27,000 SF 4,000 SF Unadjusted Trip Generation 440 218 658 Table 2 provides the expected distribution of site trips throughout the study area. Table 2 – Trip Distribution Street Ralph Ablanedo Drive Peaceful Hill Lane Traffic Distribution by Percent 80% 20% Table 3 represents a breakdown of traffic on Ralph Ablanedo Drive and Peaceful Hill Lane: existing traffic, proposed site traffic, total traffic after development, and percentage increase in traffic. Page 2 of 4 21 of 722Table 3 – Traffic Summary Street Ralph Ablanedo Drive Peaceful Hill Lane Adjusted Existing Traffic (vpd) 7,221 1,103 Proposed New Site Traffic to Roadway Overall Traffic Percentage Increase in Traffic 526 132 7,747 1,235 7.3% 12.0% According to Section 25-6-116 of the Land Development Code, streets that have a pavement width less than 30 feet are considered to be operating at an undesirable traffic level if the average daily traffic volume for such roadway exceeds 1,200 vehicles per day. Ralph Ablanedo Drive is currently operating at undesirable levels and will continue to do so with the addition of site traffic. Peaceful Hill Lane is currently operating at desirable levels but will exceed the 1,200 vehicle per day threshold with the addition of site traffic. Recommendations/Conclusions Based on the results of the NTA, ATD has the following recommendations and conclusions. 1. Ralph Ablanedo Drive and Peaceful Hill Lane are both substandard streets. At time of site plan, coordinate with ATD to assess upgrading one or both streets to urban standards. 2. If the number of units proposed in Table 1 is exceeded, the TDS division may be required to reassess the NTA. 3. The City Council may deny an application if the neighborhood traffic analysis demonstrates that the traffic generated by the project combined with existing traffic exceeds the desirable operating level established on a residential local or collector street in the neighborhood traffic analysis study area. 4. Street Impact Fee Ordinances 20201220-061 [https://www.austintexas.gov/edims/document.cfm?id=352887] and 20201210-062 [https://www.austintexas.gov/edims/document.cfm?id=352739] have been adopted by City Council and are effective as of December 21, 2020. The City shall start collecting street impact fees with all building permits issued on or after June 22, 2022. For more information please visit the Street Impact Fee website [austintexas.gov/streetimpactfee]. 5. Any building permit(s) associated with this development issued on or after June 22, 2022, will be subject to the Street Impact Fee (SIF) program. During site plan review, TDS staff shall draft a SIF Offset Agreement for all eligible improvements and, if requested by the applicant, an Allocation Agreement to memorialize how offsets are to be applied throughout the development. The SIF will be calculated and invoiced for each building permit and any required SIF payments shall be made prior to building permit issuance.

I have seen the rapid growth that has come to our area in that time – and the growth in traffic frustrations. I was notified of this zoning request by Crux Climbing Center via my membership record they had on file. I am excited about the gym expanding to my neighborhood but already concerned about the additional traffic which will be introduced by the underway apartment complex developments. After engaging with Grace Nicholas, COO of Crux Climbing Center, I am satisfied that my concerns regarding the development will be sufficiently addressed based on my understanding of their project scope: • Crux Climbing Center will pay a percent-based traffic improvement fee to the City to fund further improvements in Austin • The portion of the proposed Crux property adjacent to the street is planned to include a bike lane, sidewalk, curb, gutter, and landscape buffer • Crux Climbing Center will continue to work directly with my neighbors and our HOAs to advocate for and support further improvements to our neighborhood as a whole Please accept this letter as my support for the above referenced zoning case.

I live three blocks down from the proposed Crux Climbing Center location on Peaceful Hill Ln and am in support of the planned development by Crux. Our neighborhood is growing rapidly, and I know that any vacant land in the area will soon be developed. I would prefer that a locally owned and operated organization such as Crux develops the 4-acre property rather than a large residential developer who does not have ties to the community. Crux has a solid track record of working with their neighbors and community at their South Congress location and their team has already offered many solutions to the concerns we have brought up in our neighborhood. They have been amenable and open to collaborating with the neighbors. I also believe the neighborhood will benefit from additional recreational facilities that all the residents in the area can utilize. Most of the other developments in our area are large- scale multi-family residential with private facilities that don’t provide any benefit to current residents. Thank you, E. Susan Harkey 8005 Peaceful Hill Ln Austin, TX 78748 34 of 722From: To: Subject: Date: Rhoades, Wendy To the Attention of the Members of the Zoning and Platting Commission Wednesday, October 12, 2022 8:33:57 AM *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Hello Wendy, Here is my statement for the ZAP Meeting rescheduled for 10/18. To the Attention of the Members of the Zoning and Platting Commission, I would like to speak in favor of Crux Climbing Center: case 05 C14-2022-0077 - 220 Ralph Ablanedo Rezoning; District 2. I grew up in Texas, and moved to Austin about 8 years ago. I know the catchphrase for the folks who've been here forever, or at least the folks who've been here for over 5 years, is "wow! Things are changing!" New things are popping up all the time in this city, new developments, etc. But not much is new about Crux/the climbing community. The climbing community has been around for who knows how long, and Crux has been around since 2016. Rehoming Crux into an already strong community just feels right, as Crux provides a powerful space for people to come together--either by exploring something new (climbing, fitness, or yoga), making an old habit a new routine, a way to spend some time with family, or a way to meet someone new. Fortunately or unfortunately, development is inevitable. Why not allow for a community space to come in instead of a big corporation? Crux is run by people who care so much about listening and being intentional about each decision they make. I am the Fitness & Yoga manager at the gym and have been so grateful for the way this place is run. I'm grateful for the care these people have for each member, each guest, and each person they come into contact with What I love most about being a part of Crux is nothing is actually about Crux--it's about bringing people together in a safe, responsible, "taking care of self and other" kind of way. It's a powerful place to be a part of. Thank you for your time and consideration. -- Kindly, Audrey Davis Yoga & Fitness Manager Crux Climbing Center 121 Pickle Road CAUTION: This email was received at the City of Austin, from an EXTERNAL source.

We are also representatives of the Peaceful Hill Preservation Association. We are writing to you today on the matter of 2 active zoning cases on Peaceful Hill Lane. The two cases are as follows: 7901 Peaceful Hill Lane - Peaceful Hill Residential · · · · · C14-2022-0039 2.7 acres Existing Zoning: DR, development reserve Proposed Zoning: SF-6 (Townhomes, Condos) Status: ZAP hearing set for 10/4 220 Ralph Ablanedo - Crux Climbing Gym · · · conditional overlay · overlay, to remove the vehicle trip per day limit · Status: ZAP hearing set for 10/4 C14-2022-0077 3.99 acres - Corner of Peaceful Hill Lane and Ralph Ablanedo Existing Zoning: LI-CO, limited industrial services - conditional overlay; CS-CO, general commercial services - Proposed Zoning: LI-CO, limited industrial services - conditional overlay; general commercial services - conditional We are eager to share our thoughts and opinions at ZAP. However, both items are on the agenda for October 4th. We are requesting a postponement of both of these cases for the following reasons: In the first case: We have been in conversation with representatives for up to a year on this case but we have unfortunately not been able to come to mutual agreement on several outstanding issues. This process has been complicated by the applicants very slow responses to our correspondence and requests for information about the project. Both sides are negotiating , although over a protracted period of time. The timing of Applicant responses has made it difficult to distribute information and assess reactions to the neighborhood to various proposals by the Applicant in a timely fashion. In spite of slow applicant responses, there is reason to believe an agreement can be reached if the matter were postponed while further negotiations take place between the neighborhood and the Applicant. We respectfully request a postponement of sufficient length to give the Peaceful Hill neighborhood and the Applicant an opportunity to resolve outstanding differences prior to a ZAP hearing. In the second case, we have received only one reply to our concerns from the Applicant, and only very recently. We have had no reasonable opportunity to formulate an informed response in turn. We believe our concerns could be resolved given enough time to share the Applicant’s latest statements with the neighborhood, collect their comments and reactions and reply to the Applicant. However, this will take more time than is allowed for under the current agenda. We respectfully request a postponement to allow for the negotiation process to play out with the hope of resolving remaining issues between the neighborhood and the Applicant. Finally, the current Oct.4 Agenda lists hearings on both cases on the same day. It is very difficult for representatives and neighbors in the Peaceful Hill Preservation Association to have the ability to appear for two cases on the same day; we are a neighborhood group that cannot work full time to prepare informed presentations on the two cases simultaneously. These cases are important to the Peaceful Hill neighbors for the obvious reason that the outcome of the cases will forever change the character of Peaceful Hill Lane, a street which is only .6 miles long and classified as a substandard road. 71 of 722Thank you for your consideration of the issues raised in this correspondence.
