ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET TO: GR DISTRICT: 7 CASE: C14-2024-0014 (15328 FM 1825 Road) ADDRESS: 15328 FM 1825 Road ZONING FROM: I-SF-2 SITE AREA: 0.3242 acres PROPERTY OWNER: De Souza Investments LLC (Aline De Souza) CASE MANAGER: Sherri Sirwaitis (512-974-3057, sherri.sirwaitis@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMEDATION: Staff recommends GR, Community Commercial District, zoning. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: June 18, 2024 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: C14-2024-0014 2 ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The site under consideration is currently developed with an automotive repair use that takes access to FM 1825 Road. The property received an interim (I-SF-2) land use designation upon annexation. The surrounding areas to the north, south and west are zoned GR-CO. There is an automotive washing use (Mister Car Wash) to the north and a surface parking area to the south. To the west there is a retail center, with restaurant uses, retail sales (Ashley Furniture) and an indoor entertainment (Cinemark Tinseltown Movie Theater). Across FM 1825 Road to the east, there is a retail use (Bloomin Across Texas Florist) in the county. In this request, the applicant is seeking a permanent commercial zoning designation for the property. The staff recommends GR, Community Commercial District, zoning for the site under consideration. The property meets the intent of the district as it fronts onto a major arterial roadway, FM 1825 Road. GR zoning will permit uses that will provide services for the residential neighborhood to the east and surrounding community needs. The proposed zoning is compatible with adjacent zoning patterns as there is GR-CO zoning to the north, south and west of the site. GR zoning will bring the existing Automotive Repair use into conformance with use regulations in the Code. The applicant agrees with the staff’s 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 is accessible from major traffic ways. The property meets the intent of the GR district as it fronts onto an arterial roadway, FM 1825 Road, and will provide services for the surrounding area. 2. The proposed zoning should promote consistency and orderly planning. The proposed zoning is compatible with surrounding zoning and uses as there is GR-CO zoning to the north, south and west and retail uses to the east in the county across FM 1825 Rd. The site under consideration is located 0.15 miles from 1825 Strip Neighborhood Center and 0.40 miles north of Wells Branch Parkway Activity Corridor, as designated by the imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan. C14-2024-0014 3 3. The proposed zoning should allow for a reasonable use of the property. The proposed GR-CO zoning will allow the applicant to bring the existing commercial use on the site into conformance with City of Austin Land Development Code use regulations. It will also permit the applicant to redevelop the site with office, civic and commercial uses along a Level 3/major arterial roadway. There is public transit located within 0.25 miles as there is a Capital Metro Bus Route to the west along the Interstate Highway Northbound frontage road.
