For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments on page 2. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: August 17, 2021 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: September 02, 2021 ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES No issues have been identified for this case. 1 of 9B-8 C14-2021-0114 2 CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The area was annexed into Austin Limited Purpose Jurisdiction in 1986. The subject site is south of Anderson Mill Road and west of FM 620. Access to the site from FM 620 to Windy Ridge Road heading west then bending north for about 0.8 miles. The rezoning tract is located on the west side of Windy Ridge Road where it currently terminates. The area around the subject site is within the Austin Limited Purpose Jurisdiction on three sides and zoned Development Reserve (DR). The land contiguous to the western property line is in the Austin ETJ and not zoned. The area is mixed woodland, scrub and open areas. There is CS-CO zoning east of the subject tract, across Windy Ridge Road and 200 feet to the east. That site is developed with mini-storage and has frontage on FM 620. Note that FM 620 is almost 1,200 to the east. Windy Ridge Road is a paved road without curbs, gutters or sidewalks. Detached residences on large lots are visible along the road from where it splits with Hanging Valley Drive and bends northward. The Applicant is requesting zoning for a similar use, a single family residence - large lot (SF-1) district zoning for the 5.014 acre (218,409 square foot) tract. Applicant intends to subdivide the tract into two residential building sites. While a 10,000 square foot site is the minimum lot size for SF-1 in some areas, this location, over the Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone, allows 1 residential unit per 2 net acres. There are neither floodplains nor creek buffers on the site. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends single-family residence - large lot (SF-1) district zoning as the applicant requested. 1. The proposed zoning should be consistent with the purpose statement of the district sought. …

For a summary of the basis of staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments on page 2. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: August 17, 2021: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: September 02, 2021 ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 17B-9 C14-2021-0092 2 ISSUES None at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject zoning site is south of West William Cannon Drive and east of Manchaca Road. The Towne Square Center has three large multiple tenant buildings. The current zoning of the shopping center is primarily community commercial (GR) with one commercial – liquor sales (CS-1) footprint and one commercial – liquor sales – conditional overlay (CS-1-CO) footprint. The Church’s Chicken and River City Donut buildings are pad sites under separate ownership. The rezoning tract is the former CVS Drug store leasehold, an 8,832 square foot leased space in the south-most building on the Manchaca end of the building. The applicant is the owner and operator of the restaurant and pool hall. The proposal is to continue the operation of the restaurant and pool hall and to add liquor sales. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: 1. Commercial-liquor sales district is intended predominately for commercial and industrial activities of a service nature which typically have operating characteristics or traffic service requirements generally incompatible with residential environments, and specifically includes liquor sales as a permitted use. The existing restaurant and billiards hall is located in a shopping center bounded by two major roadways: West William Cannon Drive is a street level 4; and Manchaca Road is a street level 3 in the ASMP (Austin Strategic Mobility Plan). 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 major collectors Both W. William Cannon Dr. and Manchaca Rd. are arterial roads and the requested CS-1 zoning would be consistent with locating intensive zoning near a two-arterial intersection. 3. Zoning should not constitute a grant of special …

The Dead Dog Caves are a cluster of 6 known caves formed in Edwards Limestone and are part of the vadose zone of the Edwards Aquifer. Two of the caves are known to be comparatively extensive for the area, one of them has a perennially flowing waterfall and cave pool, and both are known to contain cave invertebrates. (Russell 2018, Reddell & Russell 1961, Fieseler 1972, Dean 2016, Reddell 1969) Historically, all 6 cave entrances have been filled in. Several attempts were made at sealing Dead Dog Cave No. 2; by blasting, and filling it with rock, dirt, and debris, but it has a history of reopening itself. Dead Dog Cave most recently began reopening sometime prior to 2015, and today the first room of the cave is once again accessible. (Russell 2018, Reddell & Russell 1961, Fiesler 1976) The caves are primarily located under, or near to, …

Zoning and Platting Commission Q & A Report B-02 C14-2021-0100 - Luby's Site Question Commissioner Denkler/ Response in blue. Does the Luby's site have to comply with current code requirements? Yes Pending Can Housing tell us what the rent maximums would be for an efficiency, a 1- bedroom or a 2- bedroom unit on the site for 2021 year? A representative of one of the neighborhood associations has complained the applicant is not using Flood Pro to model the site's drainage. Does the applicant have to use Flood Pro or can other modeling methods be approved? I reached out to Watershed Engineering Division staff and learned the following: The Applicant should definitely should be using the City’s effective floodplain model for the portion of the site impacted by Onion Creek that is available from our FloodPro website. The site is also impacted by an unnamed tributary to Onion Creek that is not currently studied (see attached map). The floodplain shown along this tributary in the current floodplain mapping is water that backs up from Onion Creek. Watershed Engineering Division staff is currently re-studying the Onion Creek watershed to incorporate Atlas 14 rainfall. This will include a study of the stream that runs through the site in question. Unfortunately, it will be at least 8 months before Watershed Engineering Division staff has an updated Onion Creek model and a new model for the unstudied tributary. In the interim, the Applicant should be using the 500-year floodplain from our regulatory Onion Creek model and performing their own study to delineate the regulatory floodplains for the unstudied tributary (since it has more than 64 acres of drainage their site). If the Applicant submits for site plan, they will need to have completed their own floodplain study of the unnamed tributary and consider the combination of the tributary and Onion Creek floodplains. Why does the applicant not have to plat? The Applicant isn’t required to plat because the configuration of the property hasn’t changed since annexation into the City limits and is eligible to receive City utility services. Review of environmental, drainage and utilities will occur with the site plan application. Has this part of the watershed been mapped for Atlas. The model has not yet been updated to include Atlas-14 rainfall. The City’s Watershed Engineering Division is in the process of performing a study update for Onion Creek, However it will be several …

ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET CASE: C14-2021-0105 – Wynne Lane Rezoning ZONING FROM: SF-2 ADDRESS: 7702 Wynne Lane PROPERTY OWNER: R. Scott Schaefer DISTRICT: 5 TO: SF-3 SITE AREA: 0.42 acres (18,295 square feet) AGENT: Thrower Design, LLC (Victoria Haase) CASE MANAGER: Wendy Rhoades (512-974-7719, wendy.rhoades@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is to grant family residence (SF-3) district zoning. For a summary of the basis of Staff’s recommendation, see case manager comments. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: August 3, 2021: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: September 3, 2021: ORDINANCE NUMBER: ISSUES: None at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject lot is within the Brownleaf Estates subdivision and contains a single family residence. Brownleaf Estates and Greenleaf Estates, the adjacent subdivision to the south, are manufactured home subdivisions and were zoned mobile home residence (MH) district in the mid-1980s. Some of the lots contain one or more manufactured homes, and other lots have single family residence or two-family residence uses. Please refer to Exhibits A (Zoning Map), A-1 (Aerial Exhibit) and B (Recorded Plat). The Applicant has requested family residence (SF-3) district zoning in order to build an accessory dwelling unit on the west portion of the property. The existing residence would be retained. 1 of 10B-2 C14-2021-0105 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. Zoning changes should promote compatibility with adjacent and nearby uses. Staff supports the Applicant’s request because the property is located in an area that is developed with a mixture of manufactured homes, single family residences and two-family residences. The SF-3 zoning district would be compatible and consistent with the surrounding uses, and there are several existing SF-2 and SF-3 zoned properties located to the north, south and east that are currently developed with single family residential uses. In addition, many of the manufactured homes located along Wynne …
