CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject platted lot is located along the west side of FM Road 2222 (a Hill Country Roadway) and contains a four-story multifamily residential development that was 1 of 22B-9 C14-2021-0184 Page 2 constructed in three phases and appears to have been completed in 2009. A segment of Bull Creek extends across the FM 2222 frontage and a tributary runs in a north – south direction through the property’s eastern half. Driveway access to FM 2222 aligns with Jester Boulevard on the north side. The zoning area and adjacent lots were annexed into the City limits in December 2007 and zoned interim – rural residence (I-RR) at that time. In November 2006, prior to annexation, a “D” (non-land use) site plan was approved for the multifamily residences (SP-06-0592D). Please refer to Exhibit B (Approved Site Plan).

ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: February 15, 2022: January 18, 2021: Postpone to February 15, 2022 at request of Zoning and Platting Commission, approved on consent. CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 10B-10 C14-2021-0159 2 ISSUES: A portion of the property is located within the 100 year flood plain, and the remainder of the property is located within Critical Water Quality and Water Quality Transition Zones (CWQZ and WQTZ). The majority of the property is located in the WQTZ and is therefore limited by Code to 18% impervious cover. Consequently, the rezoning is primarily requested to determine land uses, setbacks and building height. Please see Exhibit C- Applicant Letter. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject property is located on the south side of FM 969 approximately 2 miles west of Loop 360. The existing I-RR zoning was applied to the property when the area was annexed in 2007. The undeveloped property is located within the West Bull Creek watershed and subject to Water Supply Suburban regulations and is also subject to Hill Country Roadways and Scenic Roadways zoning overlays. Although the property is addressed on Vaught Ranch Road, access to the road is not possible. The subject property will take access to FM 2222. Surrounding properties to the south, west and east are zoned I-RR and RR, as well as unzoned property in the ETJ. Significant portions of the surrounding area are undeveloped but there are some developed properties in the area. Land uses in the I-RR zoned area include medical offices, professional offices, multifamily residential and an electric substation. Properties in the RR zoned area are single family residential. Across FM 2222 to the north are properties zoned PUD, LR and GR-CO These properties include a mix of commercial and office land uses. Please see Exhibits A and B—Zoning Map and Aerial Exhibit. Staff supports the rezoning request to GO-MU. As stated in the Issues section, the creek buffers and floodplain significantly constrain development on the site. Additionally, City regulations …
ZONING AND PLATTING SITE PLAN CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AND 25 YEAR EXPIRATION REQUEST REVIEW SHEET ZAP DATE: 02/15/22 SPC-2020-0244C CASE NUMBER: PROJECT NAME: Dessau Wastewater Treatment Plant Expansion to 0.99 MGD ADDRESS: APPLICANT: 1621 ½ Fish Ln. Austin Water (Joanette Aird) 625 E 10th St AUSTIN, Texas, 78701 K Friese & Associates (Jennifer Sullivan) 1120 S Cap of Tx Hwy, The Setting II, Suite 100 Austin, Tx 78746 (512) 338-1784 AGENT: Harris Branch CASE MANAGER: Renee Johns, (512) 974-2711 or renee.johns@austintexas.gov WATERSHED: NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN: N/A PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The applicant proposes an expansion to an existing wastewater treatment plant located in northeast Austin. The expansion includes construction of a headworks structure, FEB tank, new treatment unit, expansion of the wet well, cloth filter, sludge holding tank, chemical containment area, odor control facility, concrete flow splitting structure, associated piping, and a paved access road. COMMISSION REQUESTS: CONDITIONAL USE REQUEST: The proposed development will expand the existing wastewater treatment plant. The site is 127,630.8 square feet with 30.8% impervious coverage proposed. Sites zoned Public (P) greater than one acre in size are a Conditional Use that require Land Use Commission approval according to Land Development Code section 25- 2-625. 25 YEAR EXPIRATION REQUEST: Austin Water is requesting a 25 year expiration on this site plan permit once approved by commission. The 25 year site plan request is based on the need to update wastewater infrastructure to keep up with Austin’s population growth. Rather than returning to commission every three years to request extensions, both DSD and Austin Water staff agreed to the long request and phased approach as outlined in 25-5-21. If the 25 year expiration request is granted, future necessary expansions to the plant will be more efficient with a quicker review and permitting process. SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: CONDTIONAL USE: Staff recommends approval of the Conditional Use Permit. The existing wastewater plant is expanding in order to meet the demands of Austin’s population growth. Sites zoned Public (P) greater than one acre in size are a Conditional Use that require Land Use Commission approval according to Land Development Code section 25- 2-625. The site plan will comply with all requirements of the Land Development Code prior to its release. 25 YEAR EXPIRATION: Staff recommends approval with conditions to allow this site plan permit to expire after 25 years instead of three. This expansion is proposed in three phases. Under 25-5-21(B), commission approval …

The Imagine Austin policies referenced as applicable to this case omit the following Imagine Austin references pertinent to proposals for potential zoning changes in the Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone: • • LUT P21. Ensure that redevelopment in the Edwards Aquifer’s recharge and contributing zones maintains the quantity and quality of recharge of the aquifer. LUT P22. Protect Austin’s natural resources and environmental systems by limiting land use and transportation development in sensitive environmental areas and preserving areas of open space. • CE P2. Conserve Austin’s natural resources systems by limiting development in sensitive environmental areas, including the Edwards Aquifer, its contributing and recharge zones, and endangered species habitat. • CFS P12. Maintain or enhance the existing rate of recharge in the Edward’s Aquifer. Additionally, please note that according to the City’s own Imagine Austin Indicator Dashboard (regarding Priority Program 2 – Sustainably Manage our Water Resources), we are heading in the “wrong direction” when it comes to development within the Edwards Aquifer zones (https://data.austintexas.gov/stories/s/Sustainably-Manage- Our-Water-Resources/iv2t-ch3h). The data reflects that approximately a quarter of the development that has occurred since 2008 has been in the City’s portion of the Edwards Aquifer and that over 50% of the Recharge Zone within the city is developed. With appreciation, Carrie

ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: February 1, 2022 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 11B-4 ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is consists of a 1.146 acre area fronting Spicewood Springs Road that contains undeveloped land and an office building. The applicant is requesting LO-MU zoning because they would like to maintain the existing office use on Tract 1 and to build a residential condominium with 20 units on Tract 2. The staff recommends LO-MU zoning because the site under consideration meets the intent and purpose statement of the Limited Office-Mixed Use combining district. LO-MU zoning will promote consistency and orderly planning because there is existing office zoning (LO, LO-CO) located to the north and west and residential zoning (SF-6-CO, MF-3, SF-3, SF-6) located to the north, northwest and south of the site under consideration. The property fronts onto and is accessible from Spicewood Springs Road, a major arterial roadway. The proposed zoning will permit the applicant to develop a mixture of residential, civic and office uses adjacent to other office and residential uses. 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. Limited Office district is intended for offices predominately serving neighborhood or community needs, which may be located within or adjacent to residential neighborhoods. Mixed Use combining district is intended for combination with selected base districts, in order to permit any combination of office, retail, commercial, and residential uses within a single development. The property under consideration is accessible from Spicewood Springs Road, a major arterial roadway. The proposed zoning will permit the applicant to construct additional residential units in this area of the city adjacent to other office and residential developments. 2.

MF-4 zoning will provide for additional housing options in this area of the city with access to East Howard Lane, a major arterial roadway and a designated Activity Corridor by the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan.

ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET August 23, 2021 HLC DATE: July 26, 2021 ZAP DATE: November 2, 2021 December 7, 2021 January 18, 2022 February 1, 2022 CASE NUMBER: C14H-2021-0164 APPLICANT: Historic Landmark Commission (owner-opposed) HISTORIC NAME: Chrysler Air-Temp House COUNCIL DISTRICT: 7 WATERSHED: Shoal Creek ADDRESS OF PROPOSED ZONING CHANGE: 2502 Park View Drive ZONING FROM: SF-2 to SF-2-H SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the proposed zoning change from single family residence – standard lot (SF-2) district to single family residence – standard lot – historic landmark (SF-2-H) combining district zoning. QUALIFICATIONS FOR LANDMARK DESIGNATION: Architecture, historical significance, community value. HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION ACTION: July 26, 2021: Initiated historic zoning. August 23, 2021: Recommended historic zoning on the basis of architecture, historical significance, and community value. Vote: 9-0 (Larosche and Tollett absent). ZONING and PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION: November 2, 2021: Postponed to December 7, 2021. December 7, 2021: Meeting cancelled. January 18, 2022: Postponed to February 1, 2022. DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: This house would have contributed to the Air-Conditioned Village National Register Historic District, presented to the State Board of Review for the National Register of Historic Places in September 2021. For further information, see the draft nomination at https://www.thc.texas.gov/public/upload/preserve/national_register/ draft_nominations/Austin%2C%20Air%20Conditioned%20Village%20SBR.pdf. Due to owner opposition to the creation of the district, the nomination failed to move forward. However, this setback does not reflect on the significance of Austin’s Air-Conditioned Village experiment, and the Chrysler Air-Temp House is one of the best-preserved examples of the houses built and studied. Excerpts from the nomination are incorporated herein as relevant for context. This case initially came before the Historic Landmark Commission in June 2020 for a full demolition. The applicant in the 2020 case reconsidered their application for full demolition and submitted plans for a partial demolition and retention of the character-defining features of this house; those plans were reviewed and approved by the Commission. This proposal would have preserved much of the street façade of the house, replacing deteriorated materials in-kind or with a visually compatible modern material, and an addition to the back in what promised to be a sensitive rehabilitation and adaptive reuse of the house. The Commission initiated historic zoning on the house during the pendency of the preparation of those plans, and satisfied that the plans would preserve the character of the house, dropped the historic zoning case. Since that time, the original applicants sold the house to the …
