Project Name: 1120 and 1122 S Capital of Texas Highway Address: 1120 S CAPITAL OF TEXAS HWY SB File Number: C14-2025-0089 NPZ Site Plan Review - Randall Rouda SP 1. NOTE: All comments regarding the effects of the proposed rezoning on subsequent Site Plan Review applications are subject to modification or reconsideration if affected by any change in property boundaries or if development is proposed on only a portion of the land proposed for rezoning. These comments are intended to assist in identifying potential areas of concern and are not intended to provide a complete list of development restrictions which may arise for any specific proposal. Austin Development Services offers a variety of pre-application review options to assist in evaluating specific development proposals prior to Site Plan Application. SP 2. Site plans will be required for any new development except for residential only project with up to 4 units. SP 3. Any new development is subject to Subchapter E. Design Standards and Mixed Use. SP 4. Additional comments will be made when the site plan is submitted. SP 5. The site is subject to compatibility standards due to the adjacency of SF-2-CO property to the south. (i.e., the triggering property). Reference 25-2-1051, 25-2-1053 SP 6. Any structure that is located (see below for additional information): a. At least 50 feet but less than 75 feet from any part of a triggering property may not exceed 60 feet b. Less than 50 feet from any part of a triggering property may not exceed 40 feet Reference 25-2-1061 SP 7. An on-site amenity, including a swimming pool, tennis court, ball court, or playground, may not be constructed 25 feet or less from the triggering property. Reference 25-2-1062 SP 8. The site is located within Hill Country Roadway Corridor. The site is located within the moderate intensity zone of Loop 360. The site may be developed with the following maximum floor-to-area ratio (FAR) for non-residential buildings: Slope 0-15% 15-25% 25-35% Maximum FAR 0.25:1 0.10:1 0.05:1 SP 9. Except for clearing necessary to provide utilities or site access, a 100-foot vegetative buffer will be required along Capital of Texas Highway. At least 40% of the site (excluding dedicated right-of-way) must be left in a natural state. The allowable height is as follows: Within 200 feet of Capital of Texas Highway the maximum height is 28 feet, and beyond 200 feet the maximum height is 40 feet. SP 10. In some cases, a Hill Country Roadway Development Bonus may be available which would increase minimum height requirements and/or decrease minimum vegetative buffer requirements. LDC Section 25-2-1128 and LDC Section 25-2-1129 03 C14-2025-0089 - 1120 and 1122 S Capital of Texas Highway; District 8 1 of 2Project Name: 1120 and 1122 S Capital of Texas Highway Address: 1120 S CAPITAL OF TEXAS HWY SB File Number: C14-2025-0089 SP 11. As the proposed rezoning includes the addition of the V (Vertical Mixed Use) and DB90 (Development Bonus – 90) Overlay zones, the following comments are offered in anticipation of an application in reliance on one or both of those Overlay Zones. SP 12. This site must meet affordability minimums established in LDC Subchapter E and/or LDC 25-2-652 to be eligible for the Development Bonuses available under either the Vertical Mixed Use or DB90 Overlay Zones. A signed approval letter from the Housing Department will be required with Completion Check submittal for a Site Plan for development using DB90 and/or as a component of the review of a Site Plan for development using Vertical Mixed Use. SP 13. Any Vertical Mixed Use or DB-90 buildings will be required to be designed for pedestrian- oriented commercial uses along 75% of the ground floor frontage facing the Principal Street. Lost Creek Boulevard is the principal street for all projects with frontage on that street. Capital of Texas Highway will be the Principal Street for any project with frontage solely on Capital of Texas Highway. A lobby serving a use other than a pedestrian-oriented commercial or civic space is not counted as a pedestrian-oriented commercial or civic use. NOTE: This requirement may be modified by City Council during consideration of a rezoning to add the DB90 Overlay Zone. SP 14. If a DB90 building includes a mix of uses, a non-residential use:  may not be located above a residential use; and  may not be located on or above the third story of the building. SP 15. If a DB90 project is proposed, the Compatibility standards referenced above would not apply. Those requirements would be replaced with a requirement to provide a compatibility buffer that is 25’ in width and designed to meet the standards in LDC Section 25-8-700 and LDC Section 25-2-652(G). SP 16. If a Vertical Mixed Use project is proposed, the Hill Country Roadway maximum height, maximum FAR, minimum vegetative buffer and minimum amount of the subject site to be left in a natural state will continue to apply. SP 17. If a DB-90 project is proposed, the maximum height and maximum FAR established for the Hill Country Roadway Overlay Zone will not apply. However, the Hill Country Roadway minimum vegetative buffer and minimum amount of the site to be left in a natural state will continue to apply. 03 C14-2025-0089 - 1120 and 1122 S Capital of Texas Highway; District 8 2 of 2
