Zoning and Platting Commission Austin Strategic Mobility Plan Resolution Whereas the City Council on June 10, 2020, asked staff to amend the Austin Strategic Mobility Plan (ASMP) to add the Project Connect system plan; and Whereas the City of Austin is currently updating three of its active transportation plans: the 2014 Urban Trails Plan, the 2014 Bicycle Plan, and the 2016 Sidewalk/ADA Transition Plan (ATX Walk Bike Roll); and Whereas the ASMP Street Network Table and Map is used to identify future right-of-way dedication requirements; and Whereas on November 15, 2021, the Austin Transportation Department released a first draft ASMP Street Network map; and Whereas Round 1 feedback included 1,647 map comments showing among other concerns particular opposition to changing neighborhood streets from Level 1 to Level 2 and the associated large increases in right-of-way; and Whereas further concerns were raised about expanding the Transit Priority Network where no transit service is planned and creating unfeasible or unsafe bicycle lanes; and Whereas on September 3, 2020, Ordinance No. 20200903-005 was approved to acquire land for the 2016 Corridor Program from the owners of 2,166 Austin parcels without prior notification. Now, therefore, be it resolved that the Zoning and Platting Commission encourages the Austin City Council that there should be no street level changes in the ASMP except to incorporate the Project Connect system plan as directed by the Austin City Council; and Be if further resolved that property owners and tenants whose frontage is listed for potential right-of- way increases be notified in their primary language before the City Council vote on the ASMP; and Be it further resolved that the ASMP team should coordinate with the Equity Office in public outreach to ensure the success of ATX Walk Bike Roll’s stated goal of achieving racial equity in planning efforts; and Be it further resolved that the Transit Priority Network be expanded only when transit service is added; and Be it further resolved that before a revised Bicycle Plan is incorporated into the ASMP, a Street Level 1B should be added to the Transportation Criteria Manual that indicates the presence of a bicycle lane for both curbed and non-curbed street designs without raising the right-of-way requirements to match Level 2 streets and that only approved and safe bike routes be included.

The number of properties (2,166) represents the total number of all street-facing properties along the approximately 49 miles comprising the 9 corridors. The number of properties included in the RCA is to allow the project team the flexibility to pursue real estate acquisitions needed anywhere along the corridors without the necessity to seek additional approval from Council. The City will be pursuing acquisitions on no more than 7-8% of the total 2,166 properties along the corridors. As of today’s date, the project team estimates that real estate interests are needed from no more than 168 properties. Maps of the 9 corridors with properties identified for partial acquisition and potential partial acquisition were included as backup. All identified acquisitions are partial acquisitions or easements, being something less than the entire property, with the vast majority being sidewalk, trail, and recreation easements. Although most acquisitions will be easement interests, there may be occasional fee simple acquisitions of right-of- way necessary to widen lanes. Should the need for condemnation arise, specific actions will be brought to Council for consideration separately on a case-by-case basis. In the draft recommendation, “Whereas on September 3, 2020, Ordinance No. 20200903-005 was approved to acquire land for the 2016 Corridor Program from the owners of 2,166 Austin parcels without prior notification” and the associated, “Be if further resolved that property owners and tenants whose frontage …

From: To: Cc: Subject: Date: Stern, Lonny - BC Rivera, Andrew Ramirez, Nadia - BC Updated ASMP recommendations Monday, April 18, 2022 7:38:37 PM Hello Andrew and Chair Barrera-Ramirez -- During our last meeting, an amendment to the ASMP recommendations was submitted by another ZAP Commissioner. I would like to recommend that the section that reads: Minimize the impact: Increase the Right-Of-Way only when needed for specific, planned projects and when the required width is stated in the Transportation Criteria Manual. Make technical changes only for projects proposed in the Bike and Sidewalk Master Plans. Given that the ASMP team publicly states that changes are not imminent, and that plans can change (as these ASMP amendments attest), ask for only what is necessary. Be replaced with the following: Minimize the impact. Only redevelopment of residential base zoning districts to another base zoning district (commercial, industrial, special purpose, combining zoning districts) triggers a dedication of right of way – building permits for residential zoning districts do not require right of way dedication… unless needed for specific, planned projects and when the required width is stated in the Transportation Criterial Manual. Make technical changes only for projects proposed in the Bike and Sidewalk Master Plans. There are other items I might seek to amend, but we can do that on the dais. Yours -- Lonny -- Lonny Stern Boards and Commissions Scheduled Meeting Disclosure Information: Written disclosure is required by visitors when attending a scheduled meeting with a City Official regarding a municipal question for compensation on behalf of another person.

The conditional overlay will prohibit access to Black Oak Street unless the property is utilized for a single-family residential use. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: April 5, 2022 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 14B-1 2 C14-2021-0103 ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is a 3-acre lot that is developed with a single-family residence that takes access to a cul-de-sac on Black Oak Street. The tract of land to the north and east consists of undeveloped area zoned MF-2 that fronts onto Morris Road. To the south, there is a religious assembly use (Austin Vineyard Church), with associated parking zoned LO-MU. The lots to the west are developed with single family/duplex residential uses (I-SF-2). The applicant is requesting MF-2 zoning to combine this lot with the neighboring 4.91 acre MF-2 zoned parcel to the north and east to develop a condominium project/multifamily use. The staff recommends MF-2-CO, Multifamily Residence-Low Density-Conditional Overlay District, zoning. The proposed conditional overlay will prohibit access to Black Oak Street, unless this property is used to access a single-family residential use. The proposed MF-2-CO zoning is consistent with the MF-2 zoning to the north and east. The property in question will be combined with the adjacent to 4.91 acre MF-2 zoned property and will access Morris Road a Level 1, residential street. MF-2-CO zoning will permit the applicant to develop additional housing in this area. 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. Multifamily Residence (Low Density) district is intended to accommodate multifamily use with a maximum density of up to 23 units per acre, depending on unit size. This district is appropriate for multifamily residential areas located near single-family neighborhoods, and in selected areas where low density multifamily use is desirable. 2. The proposed zoning should promote consistency and orderly planning. The proposed MF-2-CO zoning is consistent with the MF-2 zoning to the east that was approved by the City Council last year in case C14-2020-0111 (Vineyard Christian …

CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject platted lot is located at the south corner of Menchaca Road and Casas Garcias Road, a 50-foot wide by 455-foot long dedicated public road which continues as a 50-foot access easement that functions as a private driveway. The property is accessed via three 1 of 18B-4 C14-2021-0187 Page 2 driveways to Menchaca Road. For zoning purposes, the lot is divided into two tracts: there is an existing 4,060 square foot, two-story office building (2,030 sf on each floor) on Tract 1, and there are two sizeable warehouses and several portable buildings on Tract 2 which was formerly used as a private (primary) educational facility. The property and adjacent commercial properties on Menchaca Road to the north and to the south extending to Frate Barker Road were annexed into the City limits in December 2016 and assigned interim – rural residence (I-RR) zoning at that time.

ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: April 5, 2022: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: May 5, 2022: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: None at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject platted lot is located at the southeast corner of Circle S Road and Chaparral Road, contains a single family residence and is zoned single family residence - standard lot (SF-2) district. The property is surrounded by several types of residential development in all directions, including single family residences, two-family residences, duplexes, multiple residences on lots, and apartments (multifamily residences) (SF-2; SF-3). Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and A-1 (Aerial Exhibit). The Applicant has requested family residence (SF-3) district zoning in order to resubdivide the lot and create a total of three lots with a two-family residence on each lot, for a total of six residential units. 1 of 9B-5 C14-2022-0012 Page 2 BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. The family residence (SF-3) district is the designation for a moderate density single-family residential use and a duplex use on a lot that is a minimum of 5,750 square feet. An SF-3 district designation may be applied to a use in an existing single-family neighborhood with moderate sized lots or to new development of family housing on lots that are 5,750 square feet or more. A two-family residence allows for one single family residence, plus a second detached unit not to exceed 1,100 square feet or a floor-to-area ratio of 0.15 : 1, whichever is smaller on each lot. The detached unit is limited to 2 stories or 30 feet in height, and 550 square feet on the second story, if any. A duplex use that is designated in an SF-3 district is subject to development standards that maintain single-family neighborhood characteristics. 2. The requested SF-3 zoning would allow for up to two residential units on each lot. Staff recommends the Applicant’s request because the property meets …

Introduction The Austin Strategic Mobility Plan (ASMP) is Austin's comprehensive, multimodal transportation plan, and it guides our short- and long-term transportation projects, programs, initiatives, and investments. Adopted in April 2019, the ASMP plans for all the ways we get around Austin. Council passed Resolution 20200610-002 in June 2020, “directing the City Manager to amend the Austin Strategic Mobility Plan (Ordinance No. 20190411-033) to add the Project Connect System Plan that includes the Locally Preferred Alternatives for the Orange, Blue, Gold, Green, and MetroRapid Lines, as adopted by the Capital Metro Board of Directors, to the ASMP and associated technical elements”. The ASMP is anticipated to go through a deeper evaluation for changes at the five-year mark, therefore, this two-year update is meant to remain limited in scope to respond to the Council Resolution and other significant changes in the past two years. Austin Transportation Department staff officially initiated the process to amend the Austin Strategic Mobility Plan (ASMP) in May 2021. The initial phase of this process included an interdepartmental review of the ASMP policy document and the Street Network Table and Map. The interdepartmental review effort identified several potential policy amendments that were published for public comment in October 2021, and Street Network amendments were published for public comment soon after in November 2021. 2. Public Engagement Strategy This 2-year amendment cycle is the first amendment process since the ASMP was adopted in 2019. Since this process was meant to be limited in scope, and because it is the first amendment to the document, the public engagement …
