March 3, 2020 ZAP Q & A Report B 3 Zoning: C14-2019-0129 - 10801 Wayne Riddell Loop; District 5 Question: Commissioner King Given its proximity to Slaughter Creek, does this case involve any environmental issues that should or must be reviewed by the Environmental Commission prior to review by ZAP? Answer: Staff A drainage study, an environmental assessment and a tree survey are not required for standard (non- PUD) zoning cases. These items will be submitted at the time a subdivision or site plan application is filed with the City and greater detail about the proposed development is required. B 7 Site Plan: SP-2019-0108D - Thaxton Road Tract Offsite Wastewater Improvements; District 2 Question: Commissioner Aguirre Answer: Staff (in Bold) Question 1: Please provide a breakdown of new wastewater lines (since 2013) that are located in creeks and CWQZs. Please provide a list of their locations and a map indicating where these are located. Response 1 Austin Water (AW) staff have verified with Austin Watershed Protection Department staff that there have been no variances requested or granted for construction of wastewater lines in the inner half of any critical water quality zone (CWQZ) since the establishment of current environmental criteria prohibiting construction of utility lines parallel and within the inner half of the CWQZ in 2013. Per current code, a utility line may be located parallel to and within the CWQZ if 1) in an urban watershed and not less than 50-ft from the centerline of a waterway, or 2) in a watershed other than urban and located not less than 50-ft from the centerline of a minor waterway, 100-ft from centerline of an intermediate waterway, and 150-ft from the centerline of a major waterway. Please note that this project is in a suburban watershed and the CWQZ is a 300-ft buffer from the centerline. The majority of the line is located in the outer 150-ft of the CWQZ which is allowed by code. The two relatively small encroachments into the inner half of the CWQZ comprise 860-ft of the 10,200-ft project scope for the oversized regional interceptor. One section will be bored and the other section will replace an existing smaller wastewater main that was constructed within the inner half of the CWQZ in 2015 (no variance required due to grandfathering). Question 2: Considering the Bull Creek sewage leakage incident, which was reported this past Sunday (Dec. 1, 2019), …

Tract Offsite Wastewater Improvements) on March 3, 2020 Agenda *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Chair Kiolbassa and Commissioners, For your consideration on the March 3 agenda is the above-referenced item requesting a variance for the wastewater line intended to serve the Marble Creek Basin. This City of Austin capital improvement project has long been planned as part of a comprehensive system. The original SER related to this sewer line was approved in May 1986. The original approved SER did not have an expiration. In 2014, in connection with the Springfield subdivision, a new SER calling for a wastewater line easement in the proposed location was approved. In addition, City staff reviewed plans showing the wastewater line in connection with an Erosion Hazard Zone Level 2 study. An easement was subsequently dedicated along Marble Creek behind Springfield Section 2 subdivision. Homes and drainage improvements have been built along this portion of Marble Creek preventing compliance with the 1/2 -CWQZ requirement in this area. In addition, an 8-inch sewer line to serve the Springfield Subdivision was also constructed and installed and is in place in this same general area. On August 22, 2019, the Council unanimously approved the current SER and funding for the proposed alignment of the wastewater line. Before you for consideration is the variance that staff has said is needed for the construction plans for the wastewater line related to the original SER. The 30” wastewater line will be 10,169 linear feet servicing the Marble Creek Basin. Millions of dollars of infrastructure have been invested in this area. The line is located along Marble Creek outside the existing half CWQZ for about 92% of the entirety of the alignment. No other variances are being sought. The portion to be located within the half CWQZ is approximately 860 linear feet, of which a large portion was previously disturbed as part of the construction for the existing 8” wastewater line …

ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: February 18, 2020 Scheduled for Zoning and Platting Commission CITY COUNCIL ACTION: March 12, 2020 Scheduled for City Council ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 13B-02 C14-2020-0001 2 ISSUES The western portion of this property that is covered by floodplain is currently zoned rural residential (RR) district. Staff received an email from a neighbor expressing concern about rezoning the RR area to another base zoning district. It was part of the City’s past zoning practice to zone floodplain areas as RR to reduce development in those areas. In the early 2000’s Council directed staff to stop this practice and let the environmental regulations of the City’s code dictate what could and could not be built within the floodplain and other environmentally sensitive areas. If the applicant is granted their rezoning request, they would be subject to all current code regulations and restrictions to development in these areas. All communications received on this rezoning case can be found in Exhibit C: Correspondence Received. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: This property is undeveloped and approximately 23.24 acres in size. It is bound by three roads: Alum Rock Drive, Colton Bluff Springs Road and McKinney Falls Parkway. It is currently zoned RR, single family residence – small lot (SF-4A) district zoning, single family residence – small lot – conditional overlay (SF-4A-CO) and neighborhood commercial – mixed use (LR- MU) combined district zoning. Across Colton Bluff Springs Road to the north are single family residential homes zoned SF-4A and open space (floodplain areas) zoned single family residence – standard lot (SF-2). Across McKinney Falls Parkway to the east are properties zoned LR, community commercial (GR), SF-4A, and townhouse and condominium residence (SF-6) district zoning. All of these properties are undeveloped. Adjacent to the south are properties within the …

MEMORANDUM Pioneer Crossing PUD Amendment #14, Case C814-96-0003.14 ************************************************************************ TO: Zoning and Platting Commission Members FROM: Sherri Sirwaitis Planning and Zoning Department DATE: February 4, 2020 RE: ************************************************************************ The Pioneer Crossing Planned Unit Development (PUD) was approved by Council in 1997. On October 17, 2019, the City Council approved the 14th amendment to the PUD through Ordinance No. 20191017-064. The 14th amendment inadvertently omitted the following language in Part 7(C)(6) of the original PUD ordinance: [or those improvements that may be otherwise required by the City of Austin or specifically authorized under this ordinance.] The accidental omission of this language limits the types of improvements the City may require near an open waterway with upstream drainage. Therefore, an item has been placed on your agenda for consideration to initiate a new PUD amendment case to rezone the property to reinsert that language. 1 of 1C-01
MEMORANDUM ************************************************************************ TO: Ms. Jolene Kiolbassa, Chair Members of the Zoning and Platting Commission FROM: Wendy Rhoades, Principal Planner, Zoning Case Management Planning and Zoning Department DATE: February 12, 2020 RE: Request initiation of a zoning change for the property located at the west side of South Pleasant Valley Road near the intersection of Springville Lane ************************************************************************ The item under discussion is a request to consider directing Staff to initiate a rezoning case from P to SF-2, and from SF-4A-CO to P, associated with C14-2017-0043 – Onion Creek Greenbelt. The rezoning case would correct mapping errors in Ordinance No. 20170615-094 for the property located at the west side of South Pleasant Valley Road near the intersection of Springville Lane. In March 2017, a rezoning case was initiated by Council and filed by the Parks and Recreation Department requesting public (P) district zoning consistent with its greenbelt use and to facilitate development of a portion of the property with trails. The rezoning application included an accurate metes and bounds description, however, the rezoning map inadvertently included 7203 Deep Lane and rezoned this privately owned SF-2 zoned property to the P, Public district. In addition, the map did not include a SF-4A-CO zoned triangular area at the terminus of Deep Lane and extending east to unbuilt Meadow Lake Boulevard right-of-way that is also under the stewardship of PARD. In late-January 2020, the owner of 7203 Deep Lane inquired with Staff about the P district zoning assigned to her property. In response, Staff re-mapped the 2017 metes and bounds description and concluded that it correctly captured the City-owned property, but incorrectly mapped 7203 Deep Lane to the P district. The zoning map also incorrectly 1 of 10C-02 excluded the SF-4A-CO zoned triangular area. A City-initiated rezoning application would correct both errors.

PROPERTY OWNER: GF-ARB C, Ltd. % Live Oak Gottesman AGENT: Drenner Group, PC (Amanda Swor) CASE MANAGER: Sherri Sirwaitis (512-974-3057, sherri.sirwaitis@austintexas.gov) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends GR-MU, Community Commercial-Mixed Use Combining District, zoning. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: February 4, 2020: Postponed to February 18, 2020 at the applicant's request by consent (9-0, J. Kiolbassa-absent); H. Smith-1st, N. Barrera-Ramirez-2nd. February 18, 2020 CITY COUNCIL ACTION: February 20, 2020 ORDINANCE NUMBER: B-091 of 33 C14-2019-0159 2 ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The site under consideration is a 15+ acre property located at the northwest corner of North Capital of Texas Highway and Arboretum Boulevard. The property is currently an undeveloped parcel within a retail center, adjacent to a detention pond and a parking garage. The applicant is requesting a rezoning of the property from GR, CS and CS-1 zoning to GR- MU zoning to allow for mixed use development. The staff recommends GR-MU zoning for the property in question as it meets the intent of the Community Commercial-Mixed Use Combining District. This tract of land is surrounded by commercial uses/zoning to the north, east, and west. The property fronts and takes access to an arterial roadway, Arboretum Boulevard and a state highway, North Capital of Texas Highway. Site is located on an Activity Corridor, the Arboretum Boulevard Activity Corridor, as designated in the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan. 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. The purpose of a mixed use (MU) combining district is to allow office, retail, commercial, and residential uses to be combined in a single development. 2. The proposed zoning should promote consistency and orderly planning. The proposed GR-MU zoning would be compatible and consistent with the adjacent uses because this tract of land is surrounded by office and commercial uses/zoning to the north, south, east, and west. The property in question is located on an Activity Corridor, the Arboretum Boulevard Activity Corridor, as designated in …
