Pflugerville, TX 78660 Attn: Way Atmadja, PE WAY Consulting Engineers, Inc. 11615 Angus Road, Suite 119 Austin, TX 78759 CASE MANAGER: Randall Rouda Randall.Rouda@austintexas.gov (512) 974-3338 NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN: None PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT: Under a prior approval, the applicant is currently developing a vacant lot, zoned W/LO (Warehouse/Limited Office) with two warehouse buildings and one building for alternating Daycare Services (Commercial) during daily business hours and Community Recreation (Private) in the evenings and weekends. A Conditional Use Permit for the Community Recreation building and a Compatibility Waiver were both approved for the ongoing development. The applicant is now requesting approval of a new Site Plan which would add a third warehouse building and would reconfigure the proposed parking. No change to the prior Use Permit is needed, however, the reconfigured parking amends the proposed encroachments of parking and drive aisles sufficiently to require a new Compatibility Waiver for the modified design. DESCRIPTION OF COMPATIBILITY VARIANCE: 1) From 25 feet to 5.1 feet for the easterly setback. [LDC § 25-2-1063] SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the Compatibility Waiver. The applicant proposes to place shared driveway improvements, paved parking and tree wells within the 25 foot compatibility setback along their entire 700 foot shared property line. The paved areas are approximately 5.1 feet (varying but not less than 5 feet) from the property line. All improvements are flush to the ground. In total, approximately 14,000 square feet of paved improvements are located within the compatibility setback. The landscape plan shows the border between the parking area and the adjacent single family residence as shaded and partially screened by a row of live oaks and red oaks to be planted 1 of 604 SP-2023-0053C - Howard Plaza Warehouse 3 Addition in the five foot wide landscaped area east of the paved parking lot. The parcel to the east which creates the compatibility setback is zoned W/LO (Warehouse and Limited Office) and is developed with a single family residence. As the residence is an allowed use in zones more restrictive than SF-5, the compatibility requirements of LDC Article 10 apply. The parcels are …

ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET DISTRICT: 5 ZONING TO: SF-2 CASE: C14-2023-0128 ZONING FROM: DR ADDRESS: 8711 Chisolm Lane SITE AREA: 3.01 acres (131,136 sq. ft.) PROPERTY OWNER: John Luke Sanchez AGENT: Renee Godinez CASE MANAGER: Cynthia Hadri 512-974-7620, Cynthia.hadri@austintexas.gov STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The staff recommendation is to grant single family residence-standard lot (SF-2) district zoning. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: January 30, 2024: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: There are no issues at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is a 3.01 acre platted lot, which is located at the end of Chisolm Lane and is currently zoned development reserve (DR) district. The subject site is developed with a manufactured home residence. Development on Chisolm Lane consists of single- family residences and manufactured homes on properties that were annexed into the city in 1984. Chisholm Lane is a mixture of unplatted tracts and subdivided lots that range between approximately 0.18 acres and 1.5 acres in size. In general, the smaller platted lots have SF-2, single family residence-standard lot zoning (approximately 35% of all residential lots on Chisholm Lane) and the larger tracts / lots have DR zoning (approximately 65%). There are single-family residences and manufactured homes to the north, south, east and west (SF-2, C14-2023-0128 2 SF-2-CO and DR). Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and B (Aerial View). The applicant has requested a rezoning to the single family residence – standard lot (SF-2) district in order to build an additional single family residential home for a total of two residences on the property. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. The single-family residence-standard lot (SF-2) district is intended as an area for moderate density single-family residential use, with a minimum lot size of 5,750 square feet. This district is appropriate for existing single-family neighborhoods having moderate sized lot patterns, as well as for development of additional single-family housing areas with minimum land requirements. 2. Zoning should allow for reasonable use of the property. Single family residence (SF-2) district zoning will allow for the proposed residential development and is suitable since it is consistent with the land uses in the surrounding area. Staff s recommendation for SF-2 zoning is compatible with the single-family residential character of Chisholm Lane, and with the adjacent properties which have SF-2 zoning.
