15 of 18B-4 Comments re Rezoning Request October 25, 2021 C14-2021-0156 Wendy Rhoades: 512-974-7719 November 2, 2021, Zoning and Platting Commission Case Number: Contact: Public Hearing: Comments: I am against the request to rezone the property. The rezoning will negatively affect the Searight Village homeowners in the following ways. 1. The proposed development will remove the current greenbelt that is on the property. 2. Currently, Searight Village has minimum water pressure. The addition of 300-400 apartments will significantly affect the low water pressure in Searight Village. 2. The impervious surface runoff will flow into the Searight Village area. 3. There will be a significant increase in traffic on Slaughter Lane, especially at the United Kingdom / Slaughter Lane intersection. 4. The incidence of traffic accidents, already high, will increase on Slaughter Lane. 5. There will be an increase in refuse pollution in the area. 6. There will be an increase in the crime rate in the area. 7. There will be a significant increase in light pollution. 8. There will be an increase in noise pollution in the area. Thank you for your attention and consideration. Robert Merriam 9420 Privet Drive Austin, TX 78748 1 16 of 18B-4 17 of 18B-4 18 of 18B-4
ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET August 23, 2021 HLC DATE: July 26, 2021 ZAP DATE: November 2, 2021 CASE NUMBER: C14H-2021-0164 APPLICANT: Historic Landmark Commission 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 if the Commission believes that this house qualifies as a historic landmark and represents the entire proposed historic district. 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. Vote: 9-0 (Larosche and Tollett absent). ZONING and PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION: DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: The house is beyond the bounds of the Comprehensive Cultural Resources Survey (1984) but is contributing to the identified Air Conditioned Village National Register Historic District, which was unfortunately not recommended by the State Board of Review. This case came before the 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. The prior 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 current applicant, who is seeking a permit to demolish the house and build a new house in its place. This house, being remarkably intact from the time of its construction, would have been contributing to the Air-Conditioned Village National Register Historic District, presented to the State Board of Renew earlier this month. There was owner opposition to the creation of the district and the nomination failed to move forward. However, this disappointing setback 1 of 12B-5 2 had little to do with the significance of …
1 ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET DISTRICT: 1 CASE: C14-2020-0127 Rogers Lane Residential ZONING FROM: SF-2 TO: SF-6 ADDRESS: 5417 Rogers Lane SITE AREA: 1.0 Acres PROPERTY OWNER/APPLICANT: 5417 Rogers Lane, LLC (Stuart Carr) AGENT: Thrower Design, LLC (A. Ron Thrower) CASE MANAGER: Heather Chaffin (512-974-2122, heather.chaffin@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff supports the Applicant’s request to rezone the property to SF-6. For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments on page 2. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION/ RECOMMENDATION: November 9, 2020: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: TBD ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 20B-6 C14-2021-0127 2 ISSUES: The proposed rezoning is located on Rogers Lane, a Level 1 that primarily serves large-lot residential properties. The road right-of-way (ROW) is approximately 52 feet wide and the pavement is 18 feet wide. The Austin Strategic Mobility Plan (ASMP) does not identify any immediate or long terms plans for improvements to the roadway. The proposed rezoning does not generate enough vehicular trips to trigger the requirement for a Neighborhood Traffic Analysis (NTA). A Valid Petition with 47.07% of eligible signatures has been filed in opposition to the rezoning request. (Please see Exhibit C- Valid Petition) CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The proposed rezoning is for a 1.0 acre property located on the east side of Roger Lane approximately 1300 feet north of the FM 969 right-of-way. The property is zoned SF-2 and developed with one house. The applicant proposes rezoning the property and replacing the single house with 10 to 12 townhouse/condominium residential units. Surrounding properties are also zoned SF-2 and primarily developed with single family residences and related structures. At the intersection of Rogers Lane and FM 969 is an art studio/indoor entertainment property zoned SF- 2 (nonconforming land uses). Further north is property that is developed as a mobile home community. The mobile home property is located in the ETJ and does not have frontage on or access to Rogers Lane. Further to the west is SF-6-CO zoned property that is currently undeveloped. Further to the east is Oak Meadows Elementary School, zoned SF-2. Please see Exhibits A and B—Zoning Map and Aerial Exhibit. In addition to this rezoning request, two other rezoning requests are currently under Staff review that propose access to Rogers Lane. One of these cases, C14-2021-0141 (Agave Annex), is required to submit a NTA which will provide more information about the characteristics and capacity of the street. Mitigations, including potential …

For a summary of the basis of Staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments on page 2. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: November 2, 2021: AGENT: RubyAnne Designs (Michael Winningham) CITY COUNCIL ACTION: Not yet scheduled ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: None at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject rezoning area consists of three platted lots, is located at the intersection of Manchaca Road and Keilbar Lane, and zoned family residence (SF-3) district. There are offices and a church and school that access Manchaca Road to the north (LO-CO). Keilbar Lane contains undeveloped land, single family residences and manufactured homes on lots annexed into the City limits in the mid-1980s. There are single family residences and manufactured homes to the east and on the cul-de-sac (DR), and undeveloped lots on the south side of Keilbar (SF-6; SF-3). There is a detached condominium community further south that takes access to Menchaca Road (MF-2-CO. Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and A-1 (Aerial Exhibit). 1 of 13B-3 C14-2021-0150 Page 2 The Applicant has requested multifamily residence – low density (MF-2) district zoning in order to build additional residential units on the property. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. Zoning changes should promote compatibility with adjacent and nearby uses. The multi-family residence – low density (MF-2) district is intended to accommodate multifamily use with a maximum density of 23 units per acre, depending on unit size and has a maximum height of 40 feet. This district is appropriate for multifamily residential areas located near single family neighborhoods or in an area for which low density multifamily use is desired. 2. Staff recommends MF-2 zoning for the property based on the following considerations: 1) location at the intersection of Menchaca Road, an arterial road and Keilbar Lane, a local street, 2) it is suitable for additional residential development, 3) MF-2 zoning would be compatible with the adjacent offices to the north, the existing residences on Keilbar and the existing and planned residential development …

November 2, 2021 Zoning and Platting Commission Q & A Report Is the applicant planning on complying with current code? B-1 Question - Commissioner Denkler Response: Yes B-2 Question - Commissioner Denkler Staff Response: B-6 Question - Commissioner Denkler Staff Response: Does the staff recommendation have to be changed to include LR site development standards to be approved on consent? Staff recommendation had already been made prior to the agreement, however, Staff does not object to the additions to the CO, and therefore, Commission can certainly add the LR site development standards as agreed to by the Applicant and the Neighborhood. I noticed SW Key owns a large site within the petition area. Can you tell me if children are provided services on the site and how many children are served? According to TCAD and City of Austin records, the property at 5505 Rogers Lane is a single family house that may have been divided into 3 units. Southwest Key became the owner in 2015. In 2017 the City issued permits to turn off water and wastewater taps to allow demolition, but I didn’t find a demolition permit. Currently appears to be a vacant house.

For: Chair Barrera-Ramirez Vice-Chair Kiolbassa and Commissioners Acosta, Bray, Denkler, Greenberg, King, Thompson and Woody Recommendation: Vote: 9-0 Abstain: Smith One vacancy on the Commission Attest: Andrew D. Rivera Zoning and Platting Commission Liaison Zoning and Platting Commission Resolution to Continue to Meet at City Hall Whereas, City Hall is a well-known and accessible landmark that is centrally located; Whereas, since the opening of City Hall it has hosted the meetings of the Zoning and Platting Commission; Whereas, City management has decided to move the meetings of the Zoning and Platting Commission, the Planning Commission and the Board of Adjustment to the City of Austin Permitting and Development Center (PDC) at Highland Mall without informing the commission or the public; Whereas, moving the Zoning and Platting Commission public hearings to the PDC places an undue burden on the public, the staff and the commissioners; Whereas, public hearings on zoning and land use cases by the Zoning and Platting Commission and the City Council should be in the same location to avoid confusing the public and the need for multiple notices, especially since members of the public may be unfamiliar with the locations; Whereas, signage is lacking, with only small signs on the glass doors facing Wilhelmina Delco Drive, the PDC’s official address, making it easy for participants to miss, yet the public entrance is on Thomas Hatfield Way; Whereas, seven high-frequency bus routes serve City Hall including two MetroRapids, yet only two high-frequency bus routes – the 7 and the 337 – and the Red Line serve the PDC, and the bus stops are closer to City Hall than they are to the PDC; Whereas, the safety and security of participants is paramount and City Hall has metal detectors, security immediately outside the chamber and secure parking; Whereas, Highland Mall is a construction zone so pedestrians and transit riders will have to walk past empty lots at night including a vacated lot used for surface parking across the street from the PDC, while City Hall is in the middle of an active, walkable downtown; Whereas, City Hall has a dais, computers on the dais, work tables for staff and comfortable, permanent chairs for the public …

How will the privacy be maintained for homes that back up to the west side of Copperfield Drive? The structures on the three lots (addressed from Zeller Lane) are nearly 300ft and more from the proposed structures to be built. This creates a significant buffer such that the new units will not be looming over the yards of those homes. The houses on Markham that back up to the subject tract are, at a minimum, 134feet and as far as 189ft from the proposed buildings. In addition to trees being preserved on the property, more trees will be planted with some along Copperfield Drive. 2. Additional concerns that the proposed development will be run-down and not taken care of. Reiterating that as an affordable housing development, the owner is required to keep ownership of the development for a minimum of 15 years. Therefore, this will not be a scenario where the property is developed and flipped to someone else with little to no knowledge of these conversations/concerns. Further, there will be state and local oversight, with various inspections, some occurring annually, to ensure that the project is meeting the requirements of the program. It is in the best interest of the landowner to keep the property in good standing because if not, the landowner/developer will have financial penalties/repercussions. 3. Is this development Section 8 housing? No. 4. How much are the proposed rents? The following are the rent maximums according to 2021 Austin Metropolitan Statistical Area data and are subject to change over time as the data changes. This development is proposed to have all units at 60% or 50% MFI levels. Therefore, a family of 4 …
