July 21, 2026 Zoning and Platting Commission Letter Case No. C14-2025-0089 July 18, 2026 Beverly Villela, Case Manager City of Austin Planning Department RE: Case No. C14-2025-0089 – 1120 & 1122 S. Capital of Texas Highway Request: LO/LR to LR‑V‑CO‑DB90 Dear Members of the Zoning and Platting Commission, On behalf of the Lost Creek Neighborhood Association and surrounding residents, we respectfully request that the Commission either deny the requested rezoning or substantially strengthen the proposed Conditional Overlay so that any redevelopment meaningfully advances the public purposes underlying the Density Bonus 90 (DB90) program and the Hill Country Roadway Corridor. Our neighborhood supports responsible growth and recognizes Austin's need for additional housing. The question before the Commission is not whether more housing should be built, but whether this proposal represents smart growth. Commissioner Lonny Stern appropriately framed the discussion as one of housing supply versus smart growth. Additional housing units alone do not necessarily produce successful affordable housing outcomes. This site lacks meaningful transit connectivity, is not walkable to grocery stores, schools, or daily services, and offers limited alternatives to automobile travel. Without transportation options and access to essential services, the project risks becoming an isolated residential enclave rather than a complete community. Affordable housing should expand access to opportunity, not simply increase the number of units. The public benefit exchanged for DB90 should therefore be more than the minimum affordability required to obtain substantially greater development rights. If the Commission recommends approval, we respectfully request a strengthened Conditional Overlay that preserves the intent of the Hill Country Roadway Corridor, limits visual massing adjacent to surrounding neighborhoods, requires meaningful affordability beyond minimum standards where feasible, improves pedestrian connectivity and transportation access, enhances landscaping and open space, and ensures that traffic and 02 C14-2025-0089 - 1120 and 1122 S Capital of Texas Highway; District 8 1 of 11emergency access concerns are adequately addressed. The neighborhood has also verified that the existing office buildings on the property measure approximately 44 feet in height, substantially lower than the 60-plus-foot estimates referenced during earlier discussions. The requested entitlements therefore represent a significant increase in height and mass over the existing development. Additionally, approximately 200,000 square feet of commercial space within the existing CityView complex is currently being marketed as available for lease. This demonstrates that substantial commercial capacity remains underutilized, raising important questions about replacing existing employment space with residential density while commercial vacancy persists. This case will establish an important precedent along the Highway 360 corridor. If the minimum affordable housing commitment is deemed sufficient justification for substantial increases in height and density despite limited connectivity and transit access, future applicants will understandably seek similar treatment. Conversely, requiring stronger public benefits will reinforce that DB90 exists to achieve smart growth rather than simply maximize residential unit counts. Austin unquestionably needs additional housing. The question is whether this proposal delivers the connected, sustainable, opportunity-rich community envisioned by the City's planning policies, or whether it merely increases housing supply while providing the minimum public benefit necessary to obtain significantly greater development rights. For these reasons, we respectfully request that the Commission either deny the requested rezoning or substantially strengthen the Conditional Overlay to ensure the project better reflects the objectives of DB90, the Hill Country Roadway Corridor, and Austin's long- term smart growth policies.
