ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION 20211019-D-01 Date: October 19, 2021 Subject: Future Location of Meetings Motioned By: Commissioner King Seconded By: Commissioner Greenberg Zoning and Platting Commission Meetings shall remain at City Hall, see attachment. 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 …

For a summary of the basis of Staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments on page 2. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: September 21, 2021: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: October 14, 2021: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: None at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject rezoning area consists of two platted lots, is located near the end of the block and zoned development reserve (DR) district. There is a concrete pad / driveway on the west lot and a vacant manufactured home on the east lot. 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 north and east (SF-3; DR), a detached condominium community to the south that takes access to Menchaca Road (MF-2-CO), and undeveloped lots on Keilbar Lane to the west (SF-6). 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 build a two- family residence at each address. 1 of 12B-5 C14-2021-0129 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 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 four residences on the two lots. Staff recommends the Applicant’s request because the tract meets the intent of the SF-3 district as it fronts on a local residential street and is located within an existing residential neighborhood. EXISTING ZONING AND LAND USES: Zoning changes should promote …
