5. UNIVERSITY PARK SECTION TWO - P.U.D. - PRELIMINARY PLAT AND
SITE PLAN
Name: J. S. J. Joint Venture
Address: 3415 Greystone, Suite 304
Austin, TX 78731
Telephone: 512-345-5406
Agent: Planned Development Concepts (Marcus Lester)
Address: 3415 Greystone, Suite 304

Telephone: 512-345-5486
Approval of preliminary plat and site plan of University Parli
a planned unit development, an 81418 acre tract in the
William Addison Survey, Abstract No. 21.
Facts,
Location: South of Hwy 29 and northeast of Hutto Road.
Surrounding Area: Undeveloped land and proposed normal and
small lot single family residential.
Proposed Uses: a residential development of small lot single
family and multi -family (townhouses) and rec-
reational facilities.
Development Plant This area was designated as normal res-
idential and schools and parks, thus the
high residential densities planned do not
conform to the master plan.
Concerns: 1. The primary issue on this project is the small lot
size and non-standard configuration of the lot
and street layout. Under the P.U.D. Ordinance
it is up to the developer to demonstrate that
any deviation from standard requirements will
contribute to a "better" design.
2. A second issue is the extent to which the stre
system will need to tie in to surrounding pro-
perties without destroying the unifiedneighbo
hood concept. I
3. Applicant must demonstrate that common areas
and other amenities provide safe and useable
recreational features in sufficient quantity
and of sufficient quality to promote a super-
ior neighborhood design.
4. The concepts proposed in this development
and the degree with which they vary for
existing City standards could set a president
for future developments
RECOMMENDATION: P & Z (5"0)
The plat and site plan should be resubmitted with
the following comments satisfied. Staff shall determine
whether or not plat and site plan are to be returned to
P & Z.
COMMENTS: I. Plat and support documents should conform
to requirements of P.U.D. ordinance.
II. The following ordinance requirements concerning
lots have not been met and variances are
requested:
A. Area less than 6000 square feet, lots
in the patio homes area range from 4,050
to 4,275 square feet.
B. Front width less than 60 feet and/or
average depth less than 100 feet. Many
lots are shown with fronts ranging
from 20-50', Lot depth for patio homes
is 90-95 feet.
C. Lots fronting on two non intersection streets
D. Lots placed at right angles to other lots
E. 25 Foot front yard setback is reduced to
either 10 feet or 15 feet.
F. 7 foot side yard setback is reduced to
5 feet or zero feet. "Deed back" concept
needs to be re-evaluated.
G. Elimination of public utility easements
along rear and side lot lines.
(Complete evaluation of these variances cannot
be completed until a more detailed site plan
is reviewed. However, in general, it is the
recommendation of the staff that the size and
shape of lots be increased: to accommodate
the residential units described in the
"Product Justification" section of proposal;
to provide a minimum 15 foot front yard; to
provide minimum side yards as required for
spacing of structures; to conform to standards
for maximum coverage by structures, maximum
impervious cover, and required private open
space; and to reduce or make special provisions
for lots at right angles and double frontage
lots. Staff has no objection to elimination
of rear and side utility easements.)
III. The following ordinance requirements and
City policies regarding streets have not been
met:
A.- The concept of terminating all streets
and not allowing through traffic is
counter to standard practice. Recommend
providing street access to adjacent
properties to the north, east and south.
B. Horn Court exceeds 6001 maximum length
for cul-de-sac and should be connected
to Snyder Court and the request for
variance not granted. Similar redesign
should be considered for Hyer Court and
Merritt Court.
C. Street off -sets at Landrum Lane/Morrow and
Kurth Cove/Morrow less than 125'
D. 75 foot street center line radius on
Rachel Court should be increased and
requested Variance not granted.
E. Morrow Drive should be 60' R.O.W. to
Price Drive
IV, A,moro complete description of the "ammenities"
proposed for residents 18 needed to evaluate
whether or not they compensate for requested
ordinance variances.
V. Variance must be requested and justified
for proposed reduction of off-street parking
requirements for three bedroom units.
VI. Additional water storage facilities are re-
quired to adequately accommodate the develop-
ment.
VII. Water Availability Note shall apply to this
subdivision (ie. No building permits shall
be issued until the proposed water treatment
facilities are operational or an acceptable
alternate source is provided.).
VIII. The preliminary site plan and/or support
documents should provide all informational
requirements of Section 2.809 of P.U.D.
Ordiance.
IX. The site plan, typical lot layout, and
architectural illustrations should be
co-ordinated to provide an accurate indication
of all facets of the development.
X. A landscape plan should be submitted.
Planning Department Recommendations:
Preliminary Plat and Site Plan should not be approved until
the comments mentioned above have been satisfied.

Proposed "1000 Oaks" Retail Shopping Center
Meeting of June 27, 1985
Another Concern was whether Mr. Fatter and Mr. Katz might become "absentee
landlords" in Austin. They restated their intention to build a quality
facility and provide good services to retain quality tenants. They plan
to hire a local person who will be responsible for general maintenance,
repairs, and to respond to the concerns or complaints of adjacent homeowner
They also indicated that they could also be called directly if desired. I
Number qyf_parkincl spaces was discussed. The Georgetown code requires 1 parking
space for ea TM -T -quare feet of retail space. Mr. Fatter and Me. Katz
would'like to reduce this similar to that of Austin's requirement foe V
parking space for each 200-250 square feet of retail space. In accordance
with the Georgetown requirements, they have designed the.conter with
00 approximate�11149-parking spaces. If they receive a variance, this would
