ZONING & PLATTING COMMISSION SITE PLAN EXTENSION REVIEW SHEET CASE NUMBER: SP-2019-0107C(XT2) ZAP HEARING DATE: July 15, 2025 PROJECT NAME: Cameron Retail ADDRESS OF SITE: 9313 Cameron Road COUNCIL DISTRICT: 1 NEIGHBORHOOD PLANNING AREA: N/A WATERSHED: Little Walnut Creek JURISDICTION: Full-Purpose APPLICANT/ OWNER: AGENT: Zain Fidai Rundberg Development, LLC 11500 Citrus Cove Austin, TX 78750 Stephen R. Jamison, PE Jamison Civil Engineering, LLC Austin, TX 78750 (512) 534-1162 (737) 484-0880 CASE MANAGER: Heather Chaffin (512) 974-2140 heather.chaffin@austintexas.gov PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT: The applicant is requesting a three-year extension to a previously approved site plan. The site plan was originally approved on August 12, 2020, with an expiration date of August 12, 2023. The site plan was approved to construct 10,000 square feet of retail and restaurant land use, with related parking, utilities and other improvements on the 1.31-acre site. The site plan was later granted an administrative extension to August 12, 2024. When the site plan was initially filed in 2019, the City of Austin East Rundberg Lane Extension project was in design to extend Rundberg Lane east from the intersection of Rundberg Lane and Cameron Lane to Ferguson Lane in the east. The construction plans for this extension (City File # C8-2020-0012.0B) were filed in 2020 and approved in February 2022. The roadway extension adjacent to this site was completed in early 2025. The plans and improvements for the roadway extension included driveway access, water/wastewater service connections, and floodplain and drainage improvements in the existing creek. Additionally, the roadway extension plans required 4 site plan corrections. If construction on the Cameron Retail site plan had begun concurrently with the roadway extension, several changes and corrections would have been triggered by the corrections required by the roadway plans. Additional delays in construction were caused by the Covid environment in the early 2020s, affecting financing and market conditions. A 12” water line permitted under the Cameron Retail site plan (City File # SP-2019-0107C) has been constructed in the Cameron Road right-of-way. No other improvement from this site plan have been constructed. SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval to extend this site plan permit by three years, from August 12, 2024, to 09 SP-2019-0107C(XT2) - Cameron Retail; District 11 of 20 SP-2017-0478D(XT2) All Stor Westlake August 12, 2027, based on the case meeting criteria from LDC Section 25-5-62(C)(1)(a). 25-5-63(C) Extension of released site plan by the Land Use Commission: “the Land Use Commission may …

2. I was told by Ms. Lemus that the property will continue to be used as a storage facility, and the reason for the rezoning request is that the property is double-zoned. However, that doesn't justify a CS designation. W/LO seems far more appropriate, as it allows for "convenience storage" but does not allow uses that are "incompatible residential environments" that CS does, e.g., adult-oriented business, bail bond services, pawn shop services. And of course, if the property is sold, Ms. Lemus's assurance that the owner's plan is to continue to operate a storage facility on the property won't mean that a new owner with a CS designation couldn't operate an entirely different type of business there. Therefore, I oppose a CS designation unless the permitted uses are restricted so that they mirror what is permitted under W/LO. 3. A CS designation allows for a maximum structure height of 60 feet. This is entirely unacceptable given that the property abuts numerous residences. Therefore, I oppose the rezoning request unless a one-story maximum height limitation is placed on the property. I likely will not be able to attend the hearing on July 15, but I'd like my opposition included 02 C14-2025-0055 - 6512 McNeil ESS; District 63 of 5 Notice of Public Hearing for Rezoning Case Number: C14-2025-0055 Project Location: 6512 McNeil Drive Contact: Sherri Sirwaitis Public Hearing: July 15, 2025, Zoning and Platting Commission Glen McGuire 12609 Blackfoot Trl, Austin, TX, 78729 Comments: I object to the proposed zoning change. CS is not the appropriate zoning classification for the property: 1. The definition of CS states that it is “generally incompatible with residential environments”. 2. The subject property is bordered on 2 sides by single family homes, so it is clearly within a residential environment. 3. Therefore, by definition, CS is not an appropriate zoning classification for the property. 4. CS allows for 60-foot tall buildings which are not compatible with neighborhood environments. I believe that W/LO is the proper classification and I will support that change. 1. W/LO allows for the property to be adjacent to residential environment under certain circumstances. 2. W/LO lists “Convenience Storage” as a permitted usage. 3. W/LO has a max height limit of 25 feet which alleviates a major concern of myself and the neighborhood (the potential for a 60-foot tall building in our backyards). 4. The Storage Star self-storage property on nearby Pond …

My neighbors and I have discussed the zoning request and contacted the applicant with questions. In particular, we've asked for consideration of W/LO zoning rather than CS (because of the property's location directly adjacent to numerous residences), an exclusion of Adult Oriented Business under the Conditional Overlay in addition to the exclusions the staff has already recommended, and a height restriction for the property that directly abuts residences. However, we have not been informed whether those issues have been discussed or addressed. The additional time will allow us to gather the information and decide whether to submit a petition.

From: To: Subject: Date: Cindy Barron Sirwaitis, Sherri C14-2025-0060 Monday, July 14, 2025 3:13:04 PM External Email - Exercise Caution Sherri, I am writing to express my strong opposition and concern about the proposed changes that would add back previously prohibited uses listed on the ordinance C14-2008-0224 approved in 2010. Those prohibitions were put in place to protect our small neighborhoods from uses incompatible with our community’s character, scale, and quality of life. Allowing those uses on this neighboring commercial site would have significant negative impacts, including: Increased traffic, light and noise Strain on limited infrastructure and parking Disruption of neighborhood safety and tranquility Undermining the planning efforts and agreements reached with neighbors and city staff back in 2010 Our neighborhoods have thrived under the protections established by the 2010 ordinance. Reversing those safeguards disregards years of community planning and investment. I urge you to maintain the prohibited uses as originally adopted to preserve the character and livability of our neighborhoods ACRES WEST, the COTTAGES AT LAKE CREEK, WOODLAND VILLAGE and the WOODS OF ANDERSON MILL. Thank you for considering our concerns. cindy Cindy Barron Acres West 13602 Caldwell Drive Austin, TX 78750 (H)512/258-2142 (M)512/567-3928 05 C14-2025-0060 - AE Medical & Retail Rezone; District 61 of 6 CAUTION: This is an EXTERNAL email.

From: To: Subject: Date: Cindy Barron Sirwaitis, Sherri C14-2008-0224(RCT) Monday, July 14, 2025 2:09:57 PM External Email - Exercise Caution The neighborhood of Acres West objects to the applicant's request to terminate the Restrictive Covenants associated with the property at 13642 North US 183 Highway Service Road South Bound. Request to terminate hours of operation from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM. Removal of this item will result in increased noise and traffic and will have a negative impact on all three adjacent residential neighborhoods surrounding this site. This Restrictive Covenant was negotiated as mitigation for those very impacts. Request to terminate Landscaping Plan Please note that the Landscaping Plan referenced in the Restrictive Covenant has already been replaced by SP-2014-0215C so the request to terminate this portion of the RCT has already been overlooked by the applicant and City reviewers. The new replacement site plan does not address screening and buffering compatibility for the two residential properties abutting the site to the south.

The property was zoned R&D-PDA in 1995 through Ordinance No. 950427-R and is developed with an office park (River Place Corporate Park) that contains seven buildings, with surface parking. There is undeveloped land zoned GR-CO directly to the north. To the south, there are office and single family residential uses that are zoned GO-CO and SF-5. The lots to the east are developed with an automotive repair use, a commercial retail center, a restaurant, financial services and medical office uses.

ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE: C14-2025-0032 (Acres West Lot 20 Rezone) DISTRICT: 6 ADDRESS: 13608 Caldwell Drive ZONING FROM: I-RR TO: SF-6 SITE AREA: 0.407 acres PROPERTY OWNER: Austintatious Enterprises, LLC (David Jeng) APPLICANT/AGENT: Central Texas Permit Partners (Tisha Ritta) CASE MANAGER: Sherri Sirwaitis (512-974-3057, sherri.sirwaitis@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMEDATION: Staff recommends SF-6, Townhouse and Condominium Residence District, zoning. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: July 1, 2025 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 03 C14-2025-0032 - Acres West Lot 20 Rezone; District 61 of 29 C14-2025-0032 ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: 2 The property in question is a 0.407 acre undeveloped lot that fronts onto Caldwell Drive. There are professional office and medical office uses to the north and east zoned GO-CO. The lots to the south are developed with single-family residences zoned SF-2. To the west there is an undeveloped area, a detention pond and a residential condominium development with GO-CO zoning and an I-RR designation. In this case, the applicant is requesting to establish permanent SF-6 zoning to allow for a single-family and condominium development on this property (please see the Applicant’s Summary Letter – Exhibit C). The staff recommends the applicant’s request for Townhouse and Condominium Residence district zoning. The proposed zoning is consistent with the purpose statement as the property is located on a residential collector roadway. The proposed zoning will provide a transition from the office zoning/uses to the north and east to the single-family residences along Caldwell Lane to the south. SF-6 zoning will permit the development of additional residential uses in this area and it will establish a permanent zoning designation on this currently undeveloped lot. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. Townhouse and Condominium Residence district is intended as an area for moderate density single family, duplex, two family, townhouse, and condominium use, without the spacing and locational requirements for townhouses and condominiums that apply in SF-5. This district is appropriate for areas in which unusually large lots predominate with access to other than minor residential streets, and in selected areas where a transition from single-family to multifamily use is appropriate. 2. The proposed zoning should promote consistency and orderly planning. The proposed zoning will provide a transition from the GO-CO zoning/office uses to the north and east to the SF-2 zoning/single-family residences along Caldwell Lane to the south. It is …
