(Jonathan Sosebee) CASE MANAGER: Nancy Estrada (512-974-7617, nancy.estrada@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMEDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant general commercial services (CS) district zoning. For a summary of the basis of Staff’s recommendation, see pages 2. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: June 4, 2024: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: None at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject rezoning area is 2.76 acres and located at the northeast corner of State Highway 130 frontage lanes and Pearce Lane. The subject property is part of a 10.97 acre undeveloped tract that is partially in the City of Austin full-purpose jurisdiction and partially in the ETJ. The 2.76 acres that are in the full-purpose jurisdiction are currently zoned development reserve (DR) district zoning. There is undeveloped acreage directly to the east as well as a manufactured home park (GR- CO; MH-CO), single family residences on large lots to the south (County) and the northbound frontage lanes of SH 130 to the west. Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and A-1 (Aerial Exhibit). C14-2024-0028 Page 2 The Applicant is requesting general commercial (CS) district zoning for the 2.76 acres located within the full-purpose jurisdiction in order to be able to develop a convenience store that includes a service station. Access is proposed from both the frontage of SH 130 and Pearce Lane. Access from SH 130 will be coordinated through TxDot. Access from Pearce Lane is within the jurisdiction of Travis County. Staff is recommending the Applicant's request for CS given its location at the intersection of a State Highway and an arterial roadway, and commercial zoning would enable the provision of goods and services to several single family residential neighborhoods in the vicinity. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. The proposed general commercial services (CS) district zoning is intended for commercial or industrial uses that typically have operating characteristics or traffic service requirements generally incompatible with residential environments. 2. Zoning should promote the policy of locating retail and more intensive zoning near the intersections of arterial roadways or at the intersections of arterials and …

The applicant is requesting a variance from LDC 25-8-281 to allow construction within a Seep/Spring Complex Critical Environmental Feature buffer for the drainage outfall. The variance was approved with the following conditions by the Environmental Commission on May 15, 2024: 1. Repair erosion throughout area. 2. Place Grow Zone Signs at 100 ft intervals, 30 ft from curb. 3. Expand native planting and seeding throughout the Grow Zone and the curb (no plantings outside of the Grow Zone; sod area for stabilization can remain.) 4.

ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: May 21, 2024 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: C14-2024-0045 2 ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question contains an undeveloped lot and a tract of land with a single-family residence that is currently used as an office use (Pok-E-Jo’s Corporate Office). There are single-family residences to the north (North Shields Residential Neighborhood), a religious assembly use (Chinmaya Mission Austin) to the east and office (TX Tag Customer Service Center) and commercial uses (Parmer Point Shopping Center) to the south of this site. In this request, the applicant is asking for GR zoning to redevelop the property with a hotel/motel use. The staff recommends GR district zoning for this property because it meets the intent of the Community Commercial district as it is accessible from a major traffic way. The site under consideration fronts onto Burnet Road/the Mopac Expressway North bound service road. This tract of land is near (within 0.37 miles) the Parmer Lane Activity Corridor as designated in the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan. There are transit options available in this area as the site adjoins a public sidewalk along Mopac Service Rd and Capital Metro Bus Route 980 (North Mopac Express Route) runs directly to the west of this property. The proposed zoning is consistent with zoning patterns in the area as there is LO and GR, GR-CO and CS-CO zoning to the south of this site. The requested zoning will permit the applicant to redevelop this property with commercial uses that will serve surrounding neighborhood and community needs. 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. Community Commercial district is intended for office and commercial uses serving neighborhood and community needs, including both unified shopping centers and individually developed commercial sites, and typically requiring locations accessible from major traffic ways. 2. Zoning should allow for reasonable use of the property. The requested GR district zoning will permit the applicant to redevelop this property with commercial uses that will serve …

The site under consideration and the surrounding area are zoned LI, Limited Industrial. The lots to the north and west contain hotel/motel uses.

The applicant is requesting to add a PDA overlay to redevelop the site with a multifamily midrise complex with approximately 500 residential units.

ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE: C14-2023-0155 ZONING FROM: I-RR ADDRESS: 2103 Oak Valley Road PROPERTY OWNER: Eddie & Leila Mayfield AGENT: Keepers Land Planning (Ricca Keepers) DISTRICT: 5 ZONING TO: SF-3 SITE AREA: 0.92 acres (40,075 sq. ft.) CASE MANAGER: Cynthia Hadri 512-974-7620, Cynthia.hadri@austintexas.gov STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The staff recommendation is to recommend Single-Family Residence (Large Lot) (SF-1) zoning district. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: April 2, 2024: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is 0.92 acres, developed with one single family residence, has access to Oak Valley Road (level 1), and is designated interim-rural residence (I-RR). The property has single family residences (I-RR & I-SF-2) to the west, hotel-motel (ETJ) to the south, commercial and bars (ETJ) to the north, south, and east and mobile home residences (I-RR) to the north. Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and B (Aerial View). The applicant and owner agree with the staff’s recommendation and are seeking a permanent zoning to allow the use of a bed and breakfast on the property. Staff is recommending single- family residence (large lot) (SF-1) zoning district because there are environmental constraints on the site that would need to limit the impervious cover and building coverage of future development. 1 of 1003 C14-2023-0155 - 2103 Oak Valley Rd; District 5 C14-2023-0155 2 Per the Watershed Protection Department, there are significant flood risks to private properties and homes downstream of this location. The additional impervious cover on this lot would, in part with other development/redevelopment in the area, exacerbate this flood risk. Based upon the city of Austin’s regulatory floodplain map, the existing building on the property at 2103 Oak Valley Road encroaches in the 100-year floodplain. If the owner proposed to construct additional buildings south of the current building location, they would be well within the 100-year floodplain and would be at significant risk of flooding. The comprehensive plan review comments this site meets four (4) of the Imagine Austin Decision Guidelines. The site is located within Slaughter Lane Station Neighborhood Center and is 0.20 miles from Slaughter Lane Activity Corridor, is within 0.50 miles from goods/services and a grocery store/farmers market. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. The single-family residence (large lot) zoning district is intended as an area for low density single-family residential …

The property has single family residences (I-RR & I-SF-2) to the west, hotel-motel (ETJ) to the south, commercial and bars (ETJ) to the north, south, and east and mobile home residences (I-RR) to the north. Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map) and B (Aerial View). The applicant and owner agree with the staff’s recommendation and are seeking a permanent zoning to allow the use of a bed and breakfast on the property. Staff is recommending single- family residence (large lot) (SF-1) zoning district because there are environmental constraints on the site that would need to limit the impervious cover and building coverage of future development. C14-2023-0155 2 Per the Watershed Protection Department, there are significant flood risks to private properties and homes downstream of this location. The additional impervious cover on this lot would, in part with other development/redevelopment in the area, exacerbate this flood risk. Based upon the city of Austin’s regulatory floodplain map, the existing building on the property at 2103 Oak Valley Road encroaches in the 100-year floodplain. If the owner proposed to construct additional buildings south of the current building location, they would be well within the 100-year floodplain and would be at significant risk of flooding. The comprehensive plan review comments this site meets four (4) of the Imagine Austin Decision Guidelines. The site is located within Slaughter Lane Station Neighborhood Center and is 0.20 miles from Slaughter Lane Activity Corridor, is within 0.50 miles from goods/services and a grocery store/farmers market. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. The single-family residence (large lot) zoning district is intended as an area for low density single-family residential use, with a minimum lot size of 10,000 square feet. This …

ZONING AND PLATTING RECOMMENDATION 20240402-011 April 2, 2024 Commissioner Flores FY 24-25 Budget Recommendation Seconded By: Commissioner Stern Date: Subject: Motioned By: Recommendation The Zoning and Platting Commission respectfully urges City Council Members to consider the following recommendations regarding the City of Austin FY 2024- 2025 budget. Description of Recommendation to Council Planning Department, Development Services - Provide funding to purchase and implement software tools to give staff members access to the details they need to more quickly work through permitting and zoning applications. One platform should include everything needed including property details, zoning regulations, flooding maps (both localized and creek) and Austin’s wildfire risk map. The tools should automatically check submitted applications for accurate mathematical calculations as well as consistency with property details and zoning regulations. Once implemented, these web-based tools can also be used to create and analyze the impact of larger projects such as small area plans and affordable housing studies, as well as facilitate public engagement. The software should also be made available to the public so that zoning, permitting, and site plan applications can be analyzed before submission. Housing Department – Substantially increase funding to provide affordable housing at the 30% MFI and below level. In 2108-2022, units were constructed to meet 36% of the 10 year goal for units at 121% MFI and above, but less than 2% of the 10 year goal for units at the 30% MFI and below level has been met. Transportation Department - Provide funding to study ways to improve transportation grid connectivity for areas where industrial and commercial properties are being converted to multifamily and mixed use properties (aka “Superblocks”). Transportation easements are needed to ensure that there is nothing to impede the development of a grid for shared use paths, roads, and standard block lengths in former warehouse and commercial areas outside of downtown. Transportation Department - Increase funding to upgrade substandard roads, especially those not currently planned for Capital Improvement Projects. Housing Department - Ensure adequate staffing and resources in all City incomerestricted housing programs to timely monitor compliance with income restricted housing requirements including the number of units provided, how quickly the units are 1 of 3 filled, and whether health and safety maintenance is provided on a regular and sufficient basis. Planning Department – As our region has doubled in size every 20 to 25 years, provide adequate planning staff and resources to initiate …
