Rainosek, Frank A. Miller, Walter John Miller AGENT: McLean & Howard, LLP (Jeffrey S. Howard) DISTRICT: 5 ZONING TO: MF-3 CASE MANAGER: Wendy Rhoades (512-974-7719, wendy.rhoades@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant multifamily residence – low density (MF-2) district zoning. For a summary of the basis of Staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: November 17, 2020: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: December 10, 2020: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: The Applicant is in agreement with the Staff recommendation. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property is 13.92 acres and located on Old San Antonio Road, a two-lane roadway just west of IH-35 approximately one mile south of Slaughter Lane. For context, the Southpark Meadows development is further north (CS-CO). The property slopes gradually towards Slaughter Creek which generally follows the west property line, contains several groupings of trees and one single family residence. The property has been zoned interim – rural residence (I-RR) district since annexation into the City limits in 1997. Please refer to Exhibits A and A-1 – Zoning Map and Aerial Exhibit. The property is surrounded by an undeveloped tract and recently occupied Park and Recreation Department (PARD) offices to the north (GR-MU-CO; P; P-H); apartments and Akins High School football fields to the east (MF-2; MF-2-CO; I-RR); one single family 1 of 12B-1 C14-2020-0116 Page 2 residence and the Akins High School campus to the south (I-RR); and Slaughter Creek and apartments to the west (GR-MU-CO; MF-2-CO). The Applicant proposes to zone the property to the multi-family residence – medium density (MF-3) district so that it may be developed with approximately 197 apartment units.

Staff Recommendation: 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. 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. The Applicant is in agreement to the Staff recommendation. 1. 2. Zoning changes should promote compatibility with adjacent and nearby uses. 3. Zoning should be consistent with approved and …

ADDRESS: 7008 Johnny Morris Road SITE AREA: 4.059 acres PROPERTY OWNER: Arabon Real Estate, LLC AGENT: Thrower Design LLC (A. Ron Thrower) CASE MANAGER: Sherri Sirwaitis (512-974-3057, sherri.sirwaitis@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends LO-MU, Limited Office-Mixed Use Combining District, zoning. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: November 17, 2020 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: B-21 of 12 ISSUES: On November 11, 2020, the applicant sent an e-mail to the staff stating that they wanted to amend their rezoning request to GR-MU-CO (see Exhibit C). The applicant is proposing a conditional overlay to prohibit the following uses: • Automotive Rentals • Automotive Repair Services • Automotive Sales • Automotive Washing (of any type) • Exterminating Services • Pawn Shop Services • Drive-thru fast-food CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is 4+ acre tract of land that is currently zoned SF-2 and developed with a single family residence fronting onto Johnny Morris Road. To the north, there is the Walnut Creek Greenbelt that is zoned P and lots that are developed with single-family residences zoned SF-4A. The lots to the east, across Johnny Morris Road, are also developed with single-family residential uses zoned SF-2. To the south, there is a developing multifamily use with amenities that was recently zoned GR-MU-CO through case C14-2018- 0117 – please see Area Case Histories below (Loyola Loft Apartments). The tract of land to the west contains a single-family home and undeveloped area. The applicant stated in their rezoning application that they are requesting GR-MU zoning to develop an office use at this location. The staff recommends LO-MU zoning for the site under consideration. The property meets the intent of the purpose statement for the Limited Office-Mixed Use Combining District as the LO district is intended for office and civic uses that serve neighborhood or community needs. The proposed MU combining district will permit any combination of office, retail, commercial, and residential uses within a single development. The proposed Limited Office-Mixed Use zoning will provide for a transition in the intensity of permitted uses/site development standards along Johnny Morris Road from the GR-MU- CO zoning at the arterial intersection of Loyola Lane and Johnny Morris Road to the SF-2 …

ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: November 17, 2020 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 18B-3 C14-2020-0111 ISSUES: 2 The applicant provided the following additional information regarding the property (Exhibit C): 1. This property was subdivided in 2008 (C8J-2008-0107.0A - please see Related Cases below) and dedicated nearly 17 feet of land area for the future expansion of Morris Road. This dedication was to accommodate a planned 70-foot ROW for Morris Road and included 35 feet from the existing centerline. 2. At the time of Plat, a sidewalk was required along the entire frontage of Morris Road. This sidewalk has been built and is existing. 3. At the time of Plat, the owner of the property posted fiscal for future improvements to Morris Road. 4. The Plat that was approved by the City of Austin restricts land uses to non-residential only. See plat note 22. The applicant will be re-subdividing this property and that note will be removed or amended to allow the multi-family portion to be developed. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question consists of two tracts of land that front onto Morris Road. Tract 1 (4.91 acres) is an undeveloped area and Tract 2 (3.25 acres) is developed with a religious assembly use with associated parking. To the north of the property there is an Outdoor Sports and Recreation (Town & Country Sports - Miracle Field) that is does not have permanent zoning (I-RR). The lot to the south is zoned GR-CO and is developed with a commercial retail center. The properties to the east and west are developed with single family/duplex residential uses (I-SF-2). The staff recommends MF-2, Multifamily Residence-Low Density District, zoning for Tract 1 and LO-MU, Limited Office-Mixed Use Combining District, zoning for Tract 2. The property in question is located on Level 1, residential street and does not have frontage on Anderson Mill Road. Therefore, LO-MU zoning and MF-2 …
From: Marcia Spillers < > Sent: Thursday, November 12, 2020 9:33 PM To: Sirwaitis, Sherri <Sherri.Sirwaitis@austintexas.gov> Subject: Case Number C14‐2020‐0111 *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Ms. Sirwaitis, I am writing to you to ask for a postponement of the hearing of Case Number C14-2020-0111 on November 17, 2020, by the Zoning and Platting Commission, until December 15, 2020, or later. With Covid 19 cases growing daily, our neighborhood has not had the opportunity to discuss with each other this rezoning and the impact it would have upon our single-family neighborhood. In the event of a possible lockdown, this would place any chance of discussion in the future, until Covid 19 has been contained. Furthermore, I would like to see the plans for the proposed rezoning for a daycare and apartment complex at the church, including the number of units, the parking layout, and a traffic impact study if there is one. Again, with the Covid 19 virus, this is most likely not doable until the virus has been contained. Last, with the runoff of candidates for City Council slated in December, I feel this issue should be heard after the first of the year, when the council members are in place and have the time to consider this fully. To do otherwise, would be imprudent to say the least. Thank you for taking the time to consider my request, and I look forward to hearing from you on this matter. Sincerely, Marcia Spillers 13210 Villa Park Drive Austin, Texas 78729 512-217-0989

The TIA recommendations are included as Exhibit D to this report. 1 of 24B-4 2 ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: November 17, 2020 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: 2 of 24B-4 3 ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is a 128.84 acre tract of land located on the southeast corner of West Parmer Lane/State Highway 734 and Anderson Mill Road.

ZAP Q & A Report B-1 Commissioner King: B-01 - C14-2020-0116 – 10304 Old San Antonio Road - District 5 1. How many of the proposed 197 apartments will be: Income-restricted for families earning at or below 60% median family income? a. b. Efficiencies? c. One bedroom? d. Two bedrooms? e. Three bedrooms? f. Four bedrooms? development? high schools? 2. How much parkland dedication land and/or fee-in-lieu will be required for this 3. What impact will the proposed 197 apartments have on nearby elementary, middle, and 4. Are the proposed 197 apartment units based on MF-2 zoning recommended by staff or MF-3 zoning requested by the applicant? MF-2 zoning allows up to 23 units per acre compared to MF-3 zoning, which allows up to 36 units per acre. B-2 Vice-Chair Barrera Ramirez: Was any consideration given to providing some sort of crossing of Johnny Morris from the adjacent SF housing to your development? I've seen crosswalks with the sign that says, "Yield to Pedestrians." My concern is that this is between a middle school and an elementary school and if you are building something that people will want to get to, they'll have to cross the road. It is unlikely they will do so at the signal at Loyola. Did the transportation reviewer consider this, or make any comments regarding providing a safe crossing? Applicant Response: We recognize that pedestrian mobility is severely compromised in this area. The residents of the neighborhood have spent their entire existence in the area driving everywhere for services. Most drive to Mueller for groceries, as an example. The intent of the rezoning is to provide a palette of uses that is acceptable to the neighborhood needs and desires that will ultimately facilitate transformation of the area to a more pedestrian and bike friendly community. No one project can address the extensive needs to make all that happen, but each project can cumulatively affect change. That said, we will gladly engage with ATD at the time of site plan to explore ways to move people from one side of the street to another in as safe of a location as possible. B-4 Commissioner King: If the PDA amendment requested by the applicant is approved by Council, will the site plan for the hotel, residential units, restaurant, and retail development come to the Zoning and Platting Commission for review and approval? Applicant Response: This is the …

PROPERTY OWNER: Grand HP, Ltd., a Texas Limited Partnership (Richard Hill) AGENT: Smith Robertson LLP (David Hartman) CASE MANAGER: Sherri Sirwaitis (512-974-3057, sherri.sirwaitis@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends MF-3, Multifamily Residence-Medium Density District, zoning. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: October 6, 2020: Postponed to November 4, 2020 at the neighborhood's request by consent (11-0); H. Smith-1st, A. Denkler-2nd. November 4, 2020 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is currently developed with an office and a communication service facility (Grande Communications). The applicant is requesting a rezoning of this 16+ acre site because they propose to redevelop the property with a multifamily use/a 350 unit apartment complex. The staff recommends MF-3 zoning because the property meets the intent of the purpose statement for the base district designation. The proposed zoning will promote consistency and orderly planning as the site under consideration is adjacent to existing multifamily (MF- 3-CO) zoning to the north and south. The lots directly to the north and south of this tract are developed with apartment complexes (Madison at Wells Branch Apartments, Scofield Luxury Apartments, Terraces at Scofield Ridge Apartments). The staff’s recommendation for MF-3 zoning is based on the site’s access to Elm Ridge Lane, a Level 1 street (comparable to a local street) and a 60’ wide driveway easement. The MF-3 district is compatible with the adjacent single-family residences to the northeast and east because it allows for a maximum of 40 feet in height, instead of 60 feet in height, as permitted in the requested MF-4 district. In addition, this recommendation is consistent with the surrounding zoning patterns to the north and south of this site. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. Multifamily Residence (Medium Density) district is intended to accommodate multifamily use with a maximum density of up to 36 units per acre, depending on unit size. This district is appropriate for multifamily residential areas located near supporting transportation and commercial facilities, generally in more centrally located areas, and in other selected areas where medium density multiple use is desirable. 2. The proposed zoning should promote consistency and orderly planning. While the site under consideration …

Hudson, P.E.) CASE MANAGER: Sherri Sirwaitis (512-974-3057, sherri.sirwaitis@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends LI-CO, Limited Industrial-Conditional Overlay Combining District, zoning. The conditional overlay will limit the site to uses permitted in the IP, Industrial Park, district and the Consumer Convenience Services use. Therefore, the CO would prohibit the following uses on the property: Automotive Washing Campground Commercial Off-Street Parking Drop Off Recycling Collection Facility Equipment Repair Services Equipment Sales Food Sales Funeral Services General Retail Sales (Convenience) General Retail Sales (General) Hotel-Motel Kennels Laundry Services Liquor Sales Monument Retail Sales Personal Improvement Services Scrap and Salvage Vehicle Storage Veterinary Services Basic Industry Recycling Center Resource Extraction C14-2020-0091 2 ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: October 20, 2020 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: C14-2020-0091 3 ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is a moderately vegetated undeveloped 14+ acre area that fronts onto Johnny Morris Road. The tract of land to the north contains a mobile home park (Walnut Creek Mobile Home Park). To the south, there is a single-family residence with a barn and a manufactured home park. The property to the west, across Johnny Morris Road, consists of an undeveloped tract, a single family residence and an office/warehouse use. To the east, there is a rail line and a single-family residential neighborhood. The applicant is requesting to rezone the property from LI-CO and W/LO-CO to develop this site with a limited warehousing and distribution use. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. Limited Industrial Service district is intended as an area primarily for commercial services and limited manufacturing uses, generally on moderately sized sites. The property in question is a 14+ acre area that is located on Johnny Morris Road, an arterial roadway, across from existing industrial uses. 2. Zoning should allow for reasonable use of the property. LI-CO zoning will permit the applicant to develop this property with the warehousing and distribution uses that were permitted in the original zoning ordinance in 1988 (Please see Exhibit D - Ordinance No. 891207- C). The proposed conditional overlay will limit the site to IP, Industrial Park district, …

For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments on page 2. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION/ RECOMMENDATION: November 3, 2020: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: December 3, 2020: ORDINANCE NUMBER: C14-2020-0108 2 ISSUES: No issues at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The proposed rezoning is for a 0.57 acre property located on the west side of Roger Lane approximately 110 feet north of the FM 969 right-of-way. The property is comprised of two lots zoned SF-2 developed with one house. The applicant proposes rezoning the lots in order to replace the single house with four residences (One primary residence and one accessory dwelling unit (ADU) per lot). Properties to the north, south and east are zoned SF-2 and the majority of these properties are developed with single family residences. To the west of the property is undeveloped land zoned LR-MU. Other nearby undeveloped properties include a SF-6-CO tract to the northwest and a LR-MU-CO property to the southeast. Please see Exhibits A and B— Zoning Map and Aerial Exhibit. Staff supports the proposed SF-3 rezoning district. This will allow a total of 4 dwelling units, instead of a maximum of two (one per lot). This will allow reasonable use of the property at a density comparable to most areas of the city. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. Zoning changes should promote compatibility with adjacent and nearby uses and should not result in detrimental impacts to the neighborhood character. Zoning changes should promote a balance of intensities and densities. Increasing the development potential of these two lots from 2 units to 4 units will remain compatible with surrounding properties and not result in detrimental impact to the area. 2. SF-3 zoning on this property will provide a balance of development intensities in the area. While most properties in the area are zoned SF-2, there are properties zoned LR-MU, SF-6-CO, and LR-MU-CO in the immediate vicinity.

November 3, 2020 Sherri Sirwaitis City of Austin Housing and Planning Department 505 Barton Springs Road, Fifth Floor Austin, Texas 78704 Dear Ms. Sirwaitis: Re: Proposed Rezoning/Redevelopment of 13505 Burnet Road (Zoning Case C14-2020-0092) The following is in response to the above-referenced rezoning case initiated by David Hartman on behalf of Oden Hughes, LLC for the property located at 13505 Burnet Road in Austin, Texas. The property is currently zoned IP, and the applicant is seeking to rezone the property in order to proceed with development of a multifamily project. Our community, consisting of residents who live along Anarosa Loop, is located directly east of the proposed multifamily development and therefore will be the primary adjacent residents affected by the approval of this project. We have had four meetings, and additional dialogue, between members of the applicant Oden Hughes development team and members of our residential community since September 2020 to understand the many facets of the proposed development including aesthetics, function, and other key aspects of the proposed development.. A big part of these conversations has been to focus on solutions for areas of concern to the residents that live along Anarosa Loop. The team has worked with us, collaboratively, in an effort to address our concerns in regard to proximity and placement of buildings along the eastern property line, as well as making an effort to propose a development that will honor the residential feel of our existing community. We have had productive conversation to that effect, and are continuing to work towards a final agreement with the development team. We have provided our latest working draft of pledged site upgrades as has been agreed upon thus far with Oden Hughes and residents along Anarosa Loop. We understand that the attached list will continue to evolve, and once completed would be memorialized in a private Restrictive Covenant that will be signed prior to City Council approval of third reading of the related rezoning ordinance, and other appropriate documentation. Therefore, we are in favor of supporting a continued productive dialogue between the community and the development team, and hope to continue on the path to full support of the project pending the continuing success of this dialogue. Sincerely, Residents of Anarosa Loop PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS 13505 Burnet Road (C14-2020-0092) 1. Building Height and Juliet Balconies Adjacent to Eastern Property Line. a.

Zoning and Platting Commission Q & A Report B-2 Question Commission King / Response Staff: 1. The staff is recommending LI-CO zoning, with a CO limiting the site to IP district uses. Therefore, the site development standards would be determined by the LI district. Please see the attached Commercial Site Development Standards Table. The difference between the IP and LI district are the minimum lot size, setbacks and building coverage. The maximum height, impervious cover and permitted FAR are the same in both districts. This property will be subject to compatibility standards along the south and east property lines. 2. The property under consideration is undeveloped. It has not been developed previously, therefore there are no hazardous materials on the site. The intended use is an industrial use, not a residential use, so testing and remediation would not be required. 3. a. All of the property owners, renters and registered neighborhood associations within 500 feet of the subject tract have been sent notification of the rezoning request as required by the Code (please see the attached notification list). b. The property manager for the manufactured housing park to the south contacted Heather c. Chaffin, the previous case manager, when the case was filed to request information concerning the case. I have not heard from the adjacent mobile home parks since the Notice of Public Hearing was mailed out. I am unaware of any recent cases where staff recommended industrial zoning adjacent to a manufactured housing park. This property has been zoned for industrial uses since December of 1989. The staff is proposing to maintain the list of IP district permitted uses on the site from the 1989 zoning ordinance.
