Austin Ave. Rezoning Project Location: 2320-2328 N. Austin Avenue, within City Council district No. 6. Total Acreage: 1.46 acres Legal Description: 1.46 acres in the Antonio Flores Survey, Abstract No. 235 Applicant: John Caldwell Property Owner: Craigwell PV Investments LLC, c/o John Caldwell Request: Zoning Map Amendment to rezone the subject property from the Industrial (IN) district to the General Commercial (C-3) district. Case History: This is the first public hearing of this request. Page 6 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-30-REZ 2320-2328 N. Austin Rezoning Page 2 of 7 Overview of Applicant’s Request The Applicant is seeking to rezone their property to allow more retail and personal services oriented uses in their tenant spaces. The current zoning designation of Industrial (IN) does not allow for these uses the property owner has interest for or uses that are compatible with the neighboring properties. Site Information Location: The subject property is located on Austin Avenue, across the street from the Georgetown High School and Richarte High School campuses, at the intersection with David Ferretti Drive. Physical and Natural Features: The subject property is developed with two structures. One long structure hosts multiple tenant spaces and fronts towards Austin Avenue. A second structure fronts onto David Ferretti Drive. The remainder of the subject property is undeveloped green space with several small trees. Future Land Use and Zoning Designations: The subject property has a Future Land Use designation of Regional Center and is currently zoned Industrial (IN). The subject property is also a part of the Highway Gateway Overlay District. Surrounding Properties: The subject property sits on a block in the North Austin Avenue corridor that is developed with a variety of different commercial uses. This block, bounded by IH-35, Old Airport Road, and Austin Avenue has several auto repair garages, self-storage facilities, retail stores, and daycares and preschools. This portion of the North Austin Avenue corridor sits between the future Northwest Boulevard bridge (under construction) and the rapidly developing area around the IH-35 and NE Inner Loop intersection. The current zoning, Future Land Use designation, and existing uses of the adjacent properties to the north, south, east and west are outlined in the table below: DIRECTION ZONING DISTRICT FUTURE LAND USE EXISTING USE North Industrial (IN) Regional Center (RC) Outdoor Self Storage East Public Facilities (PF) Institutional (Inst.) GISD High Schools South General Commercial (C-3) Regional Center (RC) Shops, Auto Repair West General Commercial (C-3) Regional Center (RC) Preschool, Self Storage Page 7 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-30-REZ 2320-2328 N. Austin Rezoning Page 3 of 7 Property History: The subject property was annexed in 1993. At that time, it was given its current zoning designation of Industrial (IN). Comprehensive Plan Guidance Future Land Use Map: Regional Centers (RC) Developments may be configured as major shopping centers, standalone big-box retailers, or large-scale mixed-use developments, as well as supporting flex office space and office/warehouse development. These developments are typically automobile oriented with convenient access from major transportation routes and highway interchanges, however internal pedestrian connectivity is maximized and includes opportunities for pedestrian activity. Well integrated residential developments, which encourage the interaction of residents and businesses, are appropriate and vertical mixed use encouraged. Other Master Plans: Due to its location along N Austin Ave, the subject property is also located within the Urban Corridor, one of the Image Corridors adopted as part of the 2030 Plan Update. Urban corridors are located primarily near the core of the City along roadways with higher traffic volumes. Urban corridors encourage moderate -density commercial development while maintaining a safe and welcoming pedestrian environment. Street geometry and design support all transportation modes, particularly DUA: 18 or more Target Ratio: 75% nonresidential, 25% residential Primary Use: Large retailers Secondary Uses: Mixed use, high density residential, chain restaurants, specialty retailers, professional office, and civic uses Georgetown HS Richarte HS Future Costco Site Preschool Self Storage Auto Repair Retail Northwest Blvd. Bridge Parkview Estates Page 8 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-30-REZ 2320-2328 N. Austin Rezoning Page 4 of 7 pedestrians and cyclists. These corridors accommodate a blend of retail, commercial, office, mixed -use, medium -density residential, and a limited amount of residential subdivisions. Utilities The subject property is located within the City’s service area for water, wastewater, and electric. Additionally, it is located within the Pedernales Electric Cooperative (PEC) service area for electric. It is anticipated that there is adequate capacity to serve the subject property at this time. A Utility Evaluation may be required at time of Site Development Plan to determine capacity and any necessary utility improvements. Transportation The subject property has frontage on North Austin Avenue – a minor arterial. Arterial streets provide traffic movement through and between different areas within the city and access to adjacent land uses. Access is more controllable because driveway spacing requirements are much greater and, if safety dictates, overall access can be limited to specific turning movements. Minor Arterials connect lower functional classifications and major arterials and tend to be shorter in distance. A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) will be required at time of Site Development Plan for any development that generates more than two thousand (2,000) average daily trips based upon the latest edition of the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual. Page 9 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-30-REZ 2320-2328 N. Austin Rezoning Page 5 of 7 Proposed Zoning district The General Commercial (C-3) zoning district is intended to provide a location for general commercial and retail activities that serve the entire community and its visitors. Uses may be large in scale and generate substantial traffic, making the C-3 District only appropriate along freeways and major arterials. Permitted uses in this district include, but are not limited to, general retail, hotels, restaurants, and general office. Other uses such as activity center, bar/tavern/pub, college/university, fuel sales, and event facility among others are permitted subject to specific design limitations. Certain land uses, including automotive sales, rental or leasing facilities, require a Special Use Permit (SUP). Exhibit 4 contains a comprehensive list of C-3 district permitted uses and development standards. Intergovernmental and Interdepartmental Review The proposed rezoning request was reviewed by all applicable City Departments to determine the appropriateness of the requested zoning on the subject property. No comments were issued regarding the zoning request. Approval Criteria Staff has reviewed the proposed rezoning request and has found that it complies with the criteria established in UDC Section 3.06.030 for a Zoning Map Amendment, as outlined below: ZONING MAP AMENDMENT (REZONING) APPROVAL CRITERIA 1. The application is complete and the information contained within the application is sufficient and correct enough to allow adequate review and final action. Complies An application must provide the necessary information to review and make a knowledgeable decision in order for staff to schedule an application for consideration by the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council. This application was reviewed by staff and deemed to be complete. 2. The zoning change is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Complies The subject property is located within an area that has been designated Regional Center to encourage large retailers, professional offices, civic uses and supporting high density residential (minimum of 18 dwelling units an acre) uses. This particular area covers the large blocks created between IH-35 and N Austin Avenue just north of the future Northwest Boulevard extension and south of NE Inner Loop. These roadways are classified as arterial level roadways in the City’s Overall Transportation plan to accommodate the traffic that may be generated by the high intense uses envisioned by this category, and provide access to other areas in the city and greater region. In addition, the 2030 Plan prescribes a land use split in the Regional Center designation that is 75% nonresidential and 25% residential. Currently, the land use split in this area is 54% nonresidential and 46% residential. Approximately 90% of the existing residential entitlements come from a 44.6- acre tract of land with single-family entitlements that is currently undeveloped. The North Austin Avenue corridor is also identified in the 2030 Plan as a Target Area for redevelopment and a gateway into Georgetown. Development and redevelopment along this Page 10 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-30-REZ 2320-2328 N. Austin Rezoning Page 6 of 7 ZONING MAP AMENDMENT (REZONING) APPROVAL CRITERIA corridor will help reinforce a positive image of Georgetown and make the most of available space to provide for higher density development where appropriate (Policy LU.2). In addition, it will provide opportunities for transition of uses between the freeways and the high school to the east, as well as serve the residential development along FM 971, Northwest Boulevard extension, and NE Inner Loop. While the proposed rezoning request would not affect the mix on non-residential and residential uses that is located within this area, it will further the vision of this category by restricting the manufacturing, warehousing, services and other similar industrial uses that are permitted within the current zoning district. The requested General Commercial (C-3) zoning district allows large commercial uses, including personal services, professional offices, retail, and other similar uses that best support the type of development that is envisioned for this area and the development goals for the corridor. 3. The zoning change promotes the health, safety or general welfare of the City and the safe orderly, and healthful development of the City. Complies The proposed zoning on the subject property, should it be approved, would continue a long series of rezoning and redevelopment that has occurred in this area. In 1993, the initial zoning designation for the area divided the block for commercial uses in the south and industrial uses in the north. Subsequent rezonings in 2012, 2019 and 2020 have further established commercial entitlements on the north portion of the block. All of these properties have access to Austin Avenue, a minor arterial road, and as of recently TxDOT will be constructing service roads along IH-35 that will give access to this block from the west. 4. The zoning change is compatible with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and with the character of the neighborhood. Complies The subject property is part of a triangular shaped block that is bounded by Austin Avenue on the east side, Old Airport Road on the west side, IH-35 on the southwest and northwest sides. Seventeen (17) of the 24 parcels on this block have a zoning designation of General Commercial (C- 3). The remaining seven (7) properties have a zoning designation of Industrial (IN). This block is developed in parcels of roughly the same size as the subject property with uses typically found in the C-3 district. Uses in the immediate vicinity include auto repair, general retail, places of worship, self-storage, and daycares. The proposed zoning would permit uses compatible with these. 5. The property to be rezoned is suitable for uses permitted by the District that would be applied by the proposed amendment. Complies The subject property is currently developed with a small multi-tenant building housing several retail and service-oriented businesses and a small auto repair shop. The existing development on the site can accommodate those uses permitted by the General Commercial (C-3) district. In the event that the subject property is redeveloped, it is of a suitable size to comply with the dimensional standards of the proposed zoning district, UDC landscaping requirements, parking Page 11 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-30-REZ 2320-2328 N. Austin Rezoning Page 7 of 7 ZONING MAP AMENDMENT (REZONING) APPROVAL CRITERIA minimums, and other site design standards. In general, the subject property is suitable for the proposed zoning district, and the requested change furthers the goals of the 2030 Plan as they relate to the Future Land Use area, the development of the North Austin Avenue corridor, and transitions of land uses. The proposed General Commercial (C-3) zoning would be a step toward the redevelopment of this block between IH-35 and Austin Ave. It would also provide for additional services and retail opportunities in a fast growing portion of the city.

Austin Avenue The intended purpose and reasoning of the subject property rezoning request is as follows: The current subject tract of 1.46 acres is zoned for Industrial (IN) use. We are proposing the tract to be rezoned as General Commercial (C-3). With the development of adjacent properties and high school directly across North Austin Avenue, it seems the area no longer welcomes the usage under the current zoning (such as: salvage yard, industrial materials yard, concrete plant, or truck terminal). We at Craigwell PV Investments believe that the rezoning of this tract to General Commercial (C-3) would allow us to comply with a Regional Center land use. We would like to offer space to small (low traffic) tenants such as those described as Personal Services (hair salon, pet grooming, retail, and consumer repairs). Approval Criteria: A. The application is complete, and the information contained within the application is sufficient and correct enough to allow adequate review and final action. Comment: All the documents required per the Zoning Map Amendment Checklist have been prepared. Proposed uses are compatible with the zoning districts around the subject property. B. The zoning change is consistent with the 2030 Comprehensive Plan. Comment: The subject property falls within the Regional Centers (RC) land use area. This zoning change will allow us to transition from Industrial to General Commercial to allow small business and retail users as this location. Craigwell PV Investments, LLC (512) 796-2656 Page 17 of 309 2 C. The zoning promotes the health, safety or general welfare of the City and the safe orderly, and healthful development of the City according to the Comprehensive Plan. Comment: The requested zone change will help with the beautification of the area. Since purchasing, we have removed many yards of scrap materials and trash from the property and have certainly increased curb appeal. D. The zoning change is compatible with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby properties and with the character of the area. Comment: The zone request will allow small businesses to operate in the area and help bring services to the community. There are similar businesses operating on the neighboring properties. E. The property to be rezoned is suitable for uses permitted by the district that would be applied by the proposed amendment. Comment: The property is suitable for development with sufficient roadway access and land area to meet the applicable development standards. There are no known issues within the parcel based on visual surface inspections during purchasing process.

Total Acreage: 11.572 acres Legal Description: A 11.572-acre tract of land situated in the David Wright Survey, Abstract No. 13, Williamson County, Texas. Applicant: Pacheco Koch c/o Hollis A. Scheffler Property Owner: Woodgate Property Inc., c/o Hannelore Bollmann Request: Zoning Map Amendment to rezone the subject property from Agriculture (AG) to Industrial (IN). Case History: This is the first public hearing of this request. Overview of Applicant’s Request Page 38 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-34-REZ 4045 and 4135 Airport Road Page 2 of 7 The applicant is requesting rezoning of the subject property to the Industrial (IN) zoning district to facilitate the development of two (2) buildings for warehousing and distribution, and other similar industrial uses (Exhibit 5). Site Information Location: The subject property is located on Airport Road north of the industrial development along Halmar Cove. It is across the street from the Georgetown Municipal Airport. Two single-family homes exist on the property that are current vacant. Physical and Natural Features: The subject property is generally flat and devoid of significant natural features that would impact development. There is vegetation forming fencerows on the perimeter of the site and the eastern half of the property does contain more dense stands of trees. Based on initial review, there are no natural or unique features on the site that would significantly impact a proposed development. Future Land Use and Zoning Designations: The Future Land Use designation of the property is Employment Center (EC). The subject property is currently zoned Agriculture (AG). Surrounding Properties: The general area around the intersection of Airport Road and Halmar Cove is characterized by a variety of uses. On the west side of Airport Road the Georgetown Municipal Airport continues to expand operations and increase leasable hangar space. To the east, between Airport Road and IH-35, some industrial development exists, but the majority of the property is zoned Industrial (IN) but is under development. Future extension Aviation Drive will connect Airport Road, IH-35, and SH 130 Toll to open up this Industrial (IN) property for further development. The current zoning, Future Land Use designation, and existing uses of the adjacent properties to the north, south, east and west are outlined in the table below: DIRECTION ZONING DISTRICT FUTURE LAND USE EXISTING USE North Planned Unit Development (PUD) with a base district of Local Commercial (C-1) Employment Center Vacant, Agriculture / Rural Residential South Industrial (IN) Employment Center Industrial Park East Industrial (IN) Employment Center Warehousing and Distribution (under construction) West Planned Unit Development (PUD) with a base district of Industrial (IN) Institutional Georgetown Municipal Airport Page 39 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-34-REZ 4045 and 4135 Airport Road Page 3 of 7 Property History: The subject property was annexed on November 28, 2006 (Ord. 2006-132). When annexed, the subject property was given initial zoning of Agriculture (AG). This is the first development request for the subject property. Comprehensive Plan Guidance Future Land Use Map: The subject property is within the Employment Center future land use designation which aims to provide areas with employment-generating uses. Employment Centers support heightened economic activity through quality architectural design and well-integrated supporting uses such as retail and restaurants. The inclusion of moderate to high density residential is appropriate as a supporting use to these areas of commerce and employment. These areas often act as a transition between more intensely developed industrial uses and residential neighborhoods, and thus standards should be developed to ensure that development of these activities is compatible with the character of the surrounding area. Care should be taken to protect adjacent uses from adverse impacts potentially associated with existing industrial uses (commercial traffic, outside storage, etc.), using buffering and/or performance-based development standards. Employment Center (EC) DUA: 14 or more Target Ratio: 80% nonresidential, 20% residential Primary Use: Advanced manufacturing, life sciences, and professional services. Secondary Uses: Flex workspace, environmentally friendly manufacturing, retail, commercial, high-density residential, and mixed use. Georgetown Municipal Airport Warehouse/Distribution (Under Construction) Industrial Park Minor Arterial Extension to IH-35 ETJ Neighborhoods Page 40 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-34-REZ 4045 and 4135 Airport Road Page 4 of 7 Utilities The subject property is located within the City’s service area for water, wastewater and electric. It is anticipated that there is adequate capacity to serve the subject property at this time. A Utility Evaluation may be required at time of Site Development Plan determine capacity and any necessary utility improvements. Transportation The subject property is located along Airport Road, which is classified as a minor arterial in the City’s Overall Transportation Plan. Arterial streets provide traffic movement through and between different areas within the city and access to adjacent land uses. Access is more controllable because driveway spacing requirements are much greater and, if safety dictates, overall access can be limited to specific turning movements. Recent improvements to Airport Road widened the roadway from Lakeway Drive to Aviation Drive – stopping just south of the subject property. Aviation Drive, which is located approximately 900 feet south of the subject property is another existing minor arterial that is planned to be extended west to connect to the IH-35 and SH 130 Toll interchange. A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) will be required at time of Site Development Plan for any development that generates more than two thousand (2,000) average daily trips based upon the latest edition of the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual. Proposed Zoning District The property is proposed to be rezoned to Industrial (IN). The Industrial District (IN) is intended to provide a location for manufacturing and industrial activities that may generate some nuisances. Traffic generation will likely include heavy vehicles, making access to an arterial or freeway necessary. Unless separated by a major roadway, the Industrial District is not appropriate adjacent to any residential uses. The Industrial District is appropriate in areas designated on the Future Land Use Plan as Employment Center (EC). Permitted uses in this district include, but are not limited to, emergency services station, government or postal office, nature preserve or community garden, food catering services, athletic facility (indoor or outdoor), driving range, medical or dental office or clinic, general office, integrated office center, data center, artisan studio and gallery, small engine repair, self-storage (indoor), commercial document storage, event catering and equipment rental services, furniture repair and upholstery, heavy equipment sales and repair, pest control or janitorial services, office/showroom, wholesale showrooms, stone, mulch or dirt sale yards, manufactured housing sales, automobile sales, rental or leasing facility, commercial vehicle sales, rental, or leasing facility, automobile parts and accessory sales (outdoor), automobile repair and service (limited), automobile repair and services (general), fuel sales, fuel sales with more than ten multi-fuel dispensers, car wash, recreational vehicle sales, rental, or service. Certain land uses including substance abuse clinic, indoor firing range, airport, and waste related uses may be permitted subject to approval of a Special Use Permit (SUP). Exhibit 4 contains a comprehensive list of IN district permitted uses and development standards. Due to the high intensity of the Industrial (IN) zoning district, this district is the only district that Page 41 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-34-REZ 4045 and 4135 Airport Road Page 5 of 7 permits general outdoor storage, which is defined as the storage of merchandise, goods or materials that are not actively for sale. This includes but is not limited to items that are stacked on pallets and shelves, stored in shipping containers or conexes, and semi-trailers not attached to a truck. However, it is important to note that outdoor storage is not permitted in a front or street yard and must be screened by a solid opaque wall or fence. These standards minimize the impact that the outdoor storage may have on the area. Intergovernmental and Interdepartmental Review The proposed rezoning request was reviewed by all applicable City Departments to determine the appropriateness of the requested zoning on the subject property. No comments were issued regarding the zoning request. Approval Criteria Staff has reviewed the proposed rezoning request and has found that it complies with the criteria established in UDC Section 3.06.030 for a Zoning Map Amendment, as outlined below: ZONING MAP AMENDMENT (REZONING) APPROVAL CRITERIA 1. The application is complete, and the information contained within the application is sufficient and correct enough to allow adequate review and final action. Complies An application must provide the necessary information to review and make a knowledgeable decision in order for staff to schedule an application for consideration by the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council. This application was reviewed by staff and deemed to be complete. 2. The zoning change is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Complies The subject property is located in close proximity to the intersection of two freeways (SH 130 Toll and IH-35) surrounded primarily by large undeveloped tracts of land, the Georgetown Municipal Airport, and property that is being developed or has been entitled to be developed with large intense commercial, employment, industrial and other similar uses. Because of this, the 2030 Comprehensive Plan has designated this intersection and surrounding area with three intense future land use designations: Regional Center, Institutional and Employment Center. The subject property is located at the border of this area and designated Employment Center, which is intended to support employment-generating uses, heightened economic activity and well- integrated supporting uses such as retail and restaurants. The Industrial (IN) zoning district permits the primary and secondary uses encouraged within the Employment Center category. Uses encouraged within this category include advanced manufacturing, life sciences, and professional services, all of which are uses permitted in the Industrial (IN) district. This zoning district, should it be approved, would allow uses that support Georgetown’s target industries including advanced manufacturing, life sciences, and professional services, as identified by the Target Industry Analysis (2017) (Land Use Policy LU.8). In addition, the Employment Center FLU designation has a target land use ratio of 80% non- residential and 20% residential. The Employment Center around the subject property is Page 42 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-34-REZ 4045 and 4135 Airport Road Page 6 of 7 ZONING MAP AMENDMENT (REZONING) APPROVAL CRITERIA approximately 309 acres in size. Within this area, approximately 74% of the area (or 230 acres) has been developed or will be developed with non-residential uses; the remaining 26% (or 79 acres) is agriculture or unentitled land. Should this rezoning be approved, it will bring the non-residential ratio further in line with what is planned for this area by increasing it to 78%. It should be noted, however, that due to the sizes and orientation of surrounding future land use areas, zoning and other entitlements should be looked at comprehensively to ensure a balance of land uses is maintained for this portion of the City (Land Use Policy LU.1). As these properties along Airport Road and the IH-35 and SH 130 Toll interchange continue to be developed and entitled for non-residential uses, supporting residential uses will need to be accounted for. If one FLU area builds out at 100% non-residential the supporting residential uses may be forced into other FLU area thereby increasing their ratio of residential to non-residential uses. 3. The zoning change promotes the health, safety or general welfare of the City and the safe orderly, and healthful development of the City. Complies The subject property is surrounded by Industrial (IN) zoned properties on three of the four sides. The fourth side (to the north) is zoned Planned Unit Development (PUD) with a base district of Local Commercial (C-1). According to the Development Plan of this PUD, the area immediately abutting the subject property is designated for retail and other commercial uses, which appropriately serves as a transition between the more intense uses of this area and the single-family residential uses located further to the north. However, it is worth noting that only approximately half of this PUD still is in effect, so any development would likely need to remove the remaining portions of the PUD to create a cohesive development. The proposed zoning change would facilitate orderly development in an area that is already characterized by office, industrial and institutional uses, thereby reducing the chance for land use conflicts. 4. The zoning change is compatible with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and with the character of the neighborhood. Complies The subject property is located along the eastern portion of Airport Road with industrial based uses directly adjacent to the south, east and west (Georgetown Municipal Airport). In addition, it is adjacent to property that has previously been envisioned for retail and office uses to the north. The proposed zoning change to Industrial (IN) is compatible with present zoning of nearby properties as the subject property is surrounded by industrial and commercial zoned parcels on all sides. 5. The property to be rezoned is suitable for uses permitted by the District that would be applied by the proposed amendment. Complies The size and shape of the property allows for a typical industrial floor plan with enough land remaining to meet parking needs, as well as other site improvement requirements such as buffer yards, landscaping, and impervious cover. Page 43 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-34-REZ 4045 and 4135 Airport Road Page 7 of 7 Based on the findings listed above, staff finds that the requested Industrial (IN) zoning district complies with the approval criteria for a Zoning Map Amendment. The requested zoning change is compatible with the adjacent land uses and is located in an area with access to major thoroughfares and supporting office and service uses to support the uses allowed in the requested zoning district. In addition, the Industrial (IN) district will be in line with the type of development envisioned in the Future Land Use designation of the 2030 Comprehensive Plan.

Planning Department 406 West 8th Street Georgetown, Texas 78626 Re: LETTER OF INTENT Rezoning Application Georgetown, Williamson County, Texas Dear Ms. Nelson: We are proposing the rezoning of the properties located at the below addresses: 101 Halmar Cove, Georgetown, TX 78628 (R038738 & R099751) A supporting location map of these properties is provided. The properties are currently zoned as Agriculture and being utilized as a homestead and farming. We are proposing to rezone the proprieties as industrial. Access to the site is proposed off Airport Road with internal connectivity. The water service is proposed to be pulled off the existing 12” main within Airport Road right-of- way. The wastewater service is proposed to discharge into the existing 18” line within Airport Road right-of-way. We feel that to the best of our knowledge, the proposed zoning change complies with the criteria outlined in UDC Section 3.06.030: A. The application is complete and the information contained within the application is sufficient and correct enough to allow adequate review and final action; All items from the application checklist have been provided. B. The zoning change is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan; The City’s future land use map identifies these properties as an Employment Center. Per the 2030 comprehensive plan, Employment Centers are defined as “centers with employment-generating uses support heightened economic activity through quality architectural design and well-integrated supporting uses such as retail, restaurants. The inclusion of moderate to high density residential is appropriate as a supporting use to these areas of commerce and employment. Because these areas often act as a transition between more intensely developed industrial uses and residential neighborhoods, standards should be developed to ensure that development of these activities is compatible with the character of the surrounding area.” The proposed land use is warehousing and distribution, limited, which falls under the City’s definition for an employment center as it will primarily act as an establishment engaged in the storage, distribution, or movement of materials, equipment, or goods within an enclosed structure for themselves or other firms. Page 49 of 309 201 W. 5th Street ■ Suite 1100 ■ Austin, TX 78701-0060 ■ 512.485.0831 ■ pkce.com C. The zoning change promotes the health, safety or general welfare of the City and the safe orderly, and healthful development of the City; The proposed zoning change promotes responsible growth in alignment with the current zoning surrounding and the City’s future land use map. D. The zoning change is compatible with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and with the character of the neighborhood; and Adjacent properties are zoned as industrial and local commercial. The proposed zoning change aligns with these existing and adjacent uses. E. The property to be rezoned is suitable for uses permitted by the district that would be applied by the proposed amendment. The properties proposed to be rezoned are suitable for the use as warehousing and distribution, limited. If you have any questions regarding the enclosed items or need any additional information, please call me at your convenience. Sincerely, Hollis A. Scheffler, P.E.

Total Acreage: 85.734 ac Legal Description: 85.734 acres out of the David Wright Survey, Abstract No. 13, and the John Berry Survey, Abstract No. 51 Applicant: Pacheco Koch, c/o Clayton Strolle Property Owner: Ruth Sudduth, Linda Vise, and Larry Wittera Request: Zoning Map Amendment to rezone the subject property from Agriculture (AG) to the Planned Unit Development (PUD) district with a base district of Business Park (BP) Case History: This is the first public hearing of this request. The Applicant had previously submitted a request to rezone this property into the General Commercial (C-3) and Industrial (IN) zoning districts. Following discussion with the Planning and Zoning Commission at their November 3, 2020 meeting, the Applicant withdrew the request and submitted a new request for a Planned Unit Development (PUD). Page 70 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-10-PUD Northpark 130 Page 2 of 13 Overview of Applicant’s Request The Applicant proposes the rezoning of this property to facilitate warehousing and distribution development on the property. According to the Applicant’s letter of intent (Exhibit 5), the development will primarily act as an establishment engaged in the storage, distribution or movement of materials, equipment, or goods within an enclosed structure for themselves or other firms, with supporting commercial uses along the road frontages. The industrial aspects of this project will create a vibrant and diverse economy and minimize the workday exodus to Austin and other surrounding communities. The commercial aspects of this project will not only create jobs, but provide important service and retail opportunities for residents, while also enhancing the City’s tax base and reducing retail leakage to neighboring communities. To achieve the goals of this PUD, the property is proposed to be designated intro three (3) zones: 1. Zone A (General Commercial Zone). This zone comprises of a total of approximately 11.1487 acres and constitutes the front portion of the Property along IH-35 and SH 130 Toll roadways to be developed with general commercial and service uses, as well as supporting industrial uses. 2. Zone B (Business/Industrial Park Zone). The zone is approximately 66.694 acres and constitutes the middle portion of the Property to be developed with a mix of business and industrial uses. 3. Zone C (Use Restricted Zone). This zone is approximately 7.568 acres and constitutes the south 200 feet of the Property. No uses may be developed within this zone. Drive aisles, vehicle parking, outdoor recreation spaces, non-truck court paved areas, stormwater facilities, utility services, and other landscape and site features may occur within this zone. Buildings, use specific structures, outdoor display or storage, fleet vehicle parking, and truck courts shall be prohibited in this zone. Page 71 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-10-PUD Northpark 130 Page 3 of 13 Site Information Location: The subject property is an approximately 85-acre tract south of the junction of IH-35 and SH 130 Toll. The subject property has frontage on both freeways and shares a boundary with the Crystal Knoll neighborhood and the small industrial park around Industrial Park Circle. Physical and Natural Features: The subject property has little to no mature trees on site. The only significant stands of trees occur around fence rows or the existing home on the site. The site is relatively flat and is not encumbered by any other natural features. Future Land Use and Zoning Designations: The subject property has a Regional Center Future Land Use designation and is currently zoned Agriculture (AG), which is the default initial zoning upon annexation. The portions of the property that abut IH-35 and SH-130 Tolls are also zoned Highway Gateway Overlay district. Surrounding Properties: This property falls within the Regional Center Future Land Use designation and is adjacent to Industrial and General Commercial zoned property. This property also abuts a residential subdivision to the south located within the extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ). This area includes a mixture of industrial and general/heavy commercial uses along IH 35, vacant undeveloped property along SH 130 Toll, and a mix of residential uses along Inner Loop. Development trends continue to produce commercial and industrial properties along both IH-35 and SH 130 Toll in this area. The current zoning, Future Land Use designation, and existing uses of the adjacent properties to the north, south, east and west are outlined in the table below: DIRECTION ZONING DISTRICT FUTURE LAND USE EXISTING USE North Agriculture (AG) Regional Center Undeveloped/vacant East Agriculture (AG) Regional Center Undeveloped/vacant South N/A (ETJ) Mixed Density Neighborhood Single-Family Residential West Industrial (IN), General Commercial (C-3) Regional Center Industrial Park, Commercial Vehicle Sales and Services, Fuel Sales (under review), vacant Page 72 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-10-PUD Northpark 130 Page 4 of 13 Property History: The subject property was incorporated into the city limits in 2006 as part of a large area city-initiated annexation. At this time, it obtained its current zoning designation of Agriculture (AG), which is the default initial zoning upon annexation. Comprehensive Plan Guidance Future Land Use Map: The subject property falls within the Regional Center Land Use Designation. The Regional Center category is described in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan as developments that may be configured as major shopping centers, standalone big-box retailers, or large-scale mixed-use developments, as well as supporting flex office space and office/warehouse development. These developments are typically automobile oriented with convenient access from major transportation routes and highway interchanges, however internal pedestrian connectivity is maximized and includes opportunities for pedestrian activity. Well integrated residential developments, which encourage the interaction of residents and businesses, are appropriate and vertical mixed use encouraged. Other Master Plans: Due to its location along two (2) freeways (IH 35 and SH 130 Toll), the subject property is also located within the Highway Corridor, one of the Image Corridors adopted as part of the 2030 Plan Update. Highway corridors are located along the City’s major roadways with the highest traffic volumes and traffic speeds. Highway corridors include primarily auto-oriented, nonresidential development such as Industrial Park Single-Family Residential DUA: 18 or more Target Ratio: 75% nonresidential, 25% residential Primary Use: Large retailers Secondary Uses: Mixed use, high density residential, chain restaurants, specialty retailers, professional office, and civic uses Holt Cat Titan Costco PUD Contractor Services/Warehouse TOPE Page 73 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-10-PUD Northpark 130 Page 5 of 13 commercial, retail, office, and mixed-use to capitalize on highway visibility and access; however, industrial development is not appropriate within these corridors without significant screening and performance standards. Highway corridors are the most visible to residents and visitors and project a positive image of Georgetown. Utilities The subject property is located within the City’s service area for water and wastewater. Additionally, it is located within the Pedernales Electric Cooperative (PEC) and City of Georgetown dual service area for electric. It is anticipated that there is adequate capacity to serve the subject property at this time. A Utility Evaluation may be required at time of Site Development Plan to determine capacity and any necessary utility improvements. Transportation The subject property is located south of the intersection of IH-35 and SH 130 Toll and obtains its access from both roadways. Freeways and Tollways are controlled access roadways that allow for the movement of traffic through and around the city. This classification includes interstate highways, state highways, tollways, and loops. Direct property access is limited as access is not the intended purpose of these facilities. Design characteristics of these facilities include multiple travel lanes, limited access points, high traffic volumes and high traffic speeds. When developed the subject property would also have the responsibility of extended or finishing (with a cul-de-sac or hammerhead) a local street stubbed out of the Crystal Knoll neighborhood to the south – Dogwood Drive. A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) will be required at time of Site Development Plan for any development Page 74 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-10-PUD Northpark 130 Page 6 of 13 that generates more than two thousand (2,000) average daily trips based upon the latest edition of the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual. Proposed Zoning district The PUD is a special purpose zoning district intended to allow flexibility in planning and designing for unique or environmentally sensitive properties and that are to be developed in accordance with a common development scheme. PUD zoning is designed to accommodate various types of development, including multiple housing types, neighborhood and community retail, professional and administrative areas, industrial and business parks, and other uses or a combination thereof. A PUD may be used to permit new or innovative concepts in land use and standards not permitted by zoning or the standards of the Unified Development Code (UDC). The purpose of the proposed PUD is to provide an economic base job creator for the City by providing an area that permits highly intense commercial, office and service uses, as well as manufacturing, warehousing, distribution, and other industrial uses, with access two (2) major freeways: IH-35 and SH 130 Toll. Due to the mix of commercial, service, and industrial uses, this PUD a base district of Business Park (BP). The Business Park (BP) zoning district is intended to provide a location for office, research, and light industrial uses typically located as part of a large development. Larger parks often include commercial activities such as restaurants, banks, day care and similar uses that are intended to serve the on-site community and may include some limited high-density residential. To accommodate the orderly development of the uses proposed, protect the adjacent residential neighborhood to the south, and protect and enhance the highway image corridors of IH-35 and SH 130 Toll, the PUD further designates the property into three (3) development zones: 1. Zone A (General Commercial Zone). This zone comprises of a total of approximately 11.1487 acres and constitutes the front portion of the Property along IH-35 and SH 130 Toll roadways to be developed with general commercial and service uses, as well as supporting industrial uses. This zone extends a minimum 200-foot depth from the edge of the right-of-way. 2. Zone B (Business/Industrial Park Zone). The zone is approximately 66.694 acres and constitutes the middle portion of the Property to be developed with a mix of business and industrial uses. 3. Zone C (Use Restricted Zone). This zone is approximately 7.568 acres and constitutes the south 200 feet of the Property. No uses may be developed within this zone. Drive aisles, vehicle parking, outdoor recreation spaces, non-truck court paved areas, stormwater facilities, utility services, and other landscape and site features may occur within this zone. Buildings, use specific structures, outdoor display or storage, fleet vehicle parking, and truck courts shall be prohibited in this zone. Permitted uses in the proposed PUD district vary by zone. Within Zones A and B, uses permitted by right generally include emergency services station, community garden, food catering services, general office, event catering and equipment rental services, and small engine repair. Uses that may be permitted subject to additional site design standards include but are not limited to business or trade schools, micro-brewery, micro-winery or micro-distillery, general retail, personal services, office/warehouse and office/showroom, certain manufacturing and assembly uses, and certain Page 75 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-10-PUD Northpark 130 Page 7 of 13 warehousing and distribution uses. Uses that may be permitted subject to a Special Use Permit (SUP) include heavy equipment repair and services, commercial vehicle sales and services, and general manufacturing and distribution uses (Zone A). Exhibit D of the PUD Development Plan (Exhibit 4) outlines the specific uses that may be permitted by right, with limitations and subject to approval of a Special Use Permit. No uses shall be permitted within Zone C. This PUD also includes additional zoning and development standards to accommodate the mix of uses, while maintaining a commercial corridor along the frontage roads, and mitigating the impact that the uses may have on the adjacent property. These standards include but not limited to: • Increased setbacks when property abuts a residential use, district, or subdivision. • Additional building design standards to ensure buildings are designed to replicate a commercial development, particularly when industrial uses are proposed within Zone A.  Location and emphasis of primary entrance.  Inclusion of architectural elements to primary and secondary entries.  Building articulation and inclusion of architectural elements to break the mass and scale of large buildings. • Limitations of warehousing and manufacturing uses along the front elevation of buildings located within Zone A (warehouse/storage and/or manufacturing portion of any building shall not exceed more than thirty-three percent (33%) of the front elevation). • Limitations and screening requirements of outdoor storage, particularly within Zone A. • Enhanced landscape buffer when abutting a residential use, district, or subdivision through the requirement of 100% evergreen trees and shrubs. • Restriction of access from/to Dogwood Dr. • Enhanced design for the stormwater ponds through the inclusion of concrete trickle channels and runoff control to match the rates in the drainage study and existing conveyance improvements for and within the subdivision to the south. The proposed PUD Development Plan is attached as Exhibit 4. Intergovernmental and Interdepartmental Review The proposed rezoning request was reviewed by all applicable City Departments to determine the appropriateness of the requested zoning on the subject property. Comments related to building design, uses to be permitted within Zone A, stormwater design to address drainage issues, enhanced landscape buffer along the south property line where it abuts a residential neighborhood, and preservation of a commercial corridor along IH 35 and SH 130 Toll. The Applicant revised their Development Plan and resubmitted along with a general Concept Plan. Approval Criteria Staff has reviewed the proposed rezoning request and has found that it complies with the criteria established in UDC Section 3.06.030 for a Zoning Map Amendment, as outlined below: ZONING MAP AMENDMENT (REZONING) APPROVAL CRITERIA 1. The application is complete and the information contained within the application is sufficient and correct enough to allow adequate review Complies Page 76 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-10-PUD Northpark 130 Page 8 of 13 ZONING MAP AMENDMENT (REZONING) APPROVAL CRITERIA and final action. An application must provide the necessary information to review and make a knowledgeable decision in order for staff to schedule an application for consideration by the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council. This application was reviewed by staff and deemed to be complete. 2. The zoning change is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Partially Complies The following items were taking into consideration in reviewing this criterion: 1) Future Land Use Designation Character and Purpose The 2030 Comprehensive Plan designates this property as “Regional Center”. The Regional Center category is described in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan as developments which may be configured as major shopping centers, standalone big-box retailers, or large-scale mixed-use developments, as well as supporting flex office space and office/warehouse development. In addition, well integrated residential developments, which encourage the interaction of residents and businesses, are appropriate and vertical mixed use is encouraged. The proposed zoning district of Planned Unit Development (PUD) district with a base district of Business Park (BP) is generally consistent with the type of uses and intensity that is envisioned for this area by the Comprehensive Plan. The purpose of this PUD is to provide an economic base job creation district by providing an area that permits highly intense commercial, office, research and service uses, as well as manufacturing, warehousing, distribution, and related uses. Target Use Ratio This Regional Center area comprises approximately 206 acres and extends from the IH 35 and SH 130 Toll intersection to the north, to the 100-year FEMA floodplain located south of NE Inner Loop. Within this area, more than half is agriculture or unentitled land that is yet to be developed, including the subject property that comprises approximately 42% (85.734 acres) of the area. When looking at the recommended non-residential (75%) to residential (25%) ratio for the Regional Center category, the requested zoning district would bring the area closer to the ratio envisioned, as shown in the breakdown below: Regional Center Future Land Use Category Land Use Existing Conditions Proposed Conditions Acres Percentage Acres Percentage Non-Residential 53.83 26 139.56 68 Residential 11.7 6 11.7 6 Agriculture/Unentitled 140.56 68 54.82 27 Primary and secondary uses This PUD proposes a mix of non-residential uses that includes general retail, services, civic (educational), general office, office/warehouse, warehousing, distribution, manufacturing, and wholesale uses. While the proposed PUD allows for supporting service uses encouraged by the Regional Center, such as personal services, food establishments, general retail, and office/warehouse development to attract a separate set of users to the property, this PUD is also Page 77 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-10-PUD Northpark 130 Page 9 of 13 ZONING MAP AMENDMENT (REZONING) APPROVAL CRITERIA meant to provide an area that can accommodate intense manufacturing, distribution, and other industrial activities beyond what has been envisioned for this area. Approximately 66.7 acres (or 78%) of the subject property is intended for light to heavy industrial uses, such as general manufacturing and assembly and general warehousing and distribution uses. This would increase the total amount of industrial property within this category from 19.73 acres (or 10%) to 86.43 acres (or 42%). 2) 2030 Plan Policies The subject property is located near the intersection of two freeways (SH 130 Toll and IH-35) that is primarily surrounded by large undeveloped tracts of land with multiple Future Land Use Designations. The areas around this major interchange are roughly 200 to 300 acres in size and have access to major thoroughfares that provide access to other parts of the city and greater region. Because of this, the intersection is surrounded by Future Land Use areas that predict high amounts of traffic and large scale intense commercial, office, industrial and other job-generating uses. As a part of the city where large numbers of employers and other commercial uses are expected secondary uses such as a high-density residential use should also be expected. Property that has already been through the zoning entitlement process in the FLU areas around this interchange have been designated for non-residential use – either in the Industrial (IN) or the General Commercial (C-3) district. The remaining unentitled and undeveloped areas are located along the frontage roads or surrounded by major commercial or industrial developments. Because of this, requests for a Zoning Map Amendment within this and surrounding areas should be looked at comprehensively to ensure a balance of land uses is maintained for this portion of the City (Land Use Policy LU.1). As these properties continue to be developed and entitled for non-residential uses, supporting residential uses envisioned for this area may be shifted to the adjacent land use categories and surrounding area. Page 78 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-10-PUD Northpark 130 Page 10 of 13 ZONING MAP AMENDMENT (REZONING) APPROVAL CRITERIA Generally, the properties in this area that are unentitled are similar in physical characteristics. In this part of the city properties have remained in large tracts unsubdivided. These tracts generally are at least 50 acres in size – too large to develop with a single use. It should be expected and encouraged that these tracts should be developed in accordance with the 2030 Plan policies on transitions (Land Use Policy LU.1) to develop a transition of uses along these corridors that are supported by internal vehicular networks as property is subdivided. The two road frontages next to this property have been designated as Highway Image corridors in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan. The Highway image corridor envisions primarily auto-oriented, nonresidential development such as commercial, retail, office, and mixed-use to capitalize on highway visibility and access. Limited industrial use is encouraged, and when proposed, significant screening and performance standards should be provided. While the proposed PUD designates the areas along the road frontages as the general commercial zone (Zone A), the PUD allows for certain light industrial uses to be developed within this zone. Additional standards are proposed in the PUD to mitigate the impact that the industrial uses may have on the image corridor, such as screening and building architectural standards to maintain a commercial type of development. With the general commercial zone proposed along the roadways, the request would also strengthen Georgetown’s image and quality feel within enhanced gateways and commercial corridor (Land Use Policy LU.7). The proposed PUD request, should it be approved, would allow uses that support Georgetown’s target industries including advanced manufacturing, life sciences, and professional services, as Page 79 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-10-PUD Northpark 130 Page 11 of 13 ZONING MAP AMENDMENT (REZONING) APPROVAL CRITERIA identified by the Target Industry Analysis (2017) (Land Use Policy LU.8). 3. The zoning change promotes the health, safety or general welfare of the City and the safe orderly, and healthful development of the City. Complies The proposed Planned Unit Development (PUD) district includes three zones: a general commercial zone along the roadways, business park/industrial zone in the middle, and a use restricted zone along the south portion of the property. The transition of commercial to industrial uses promotes orderly and healthful development of the City by providing a transition of uses from the freeways, while preserving the commercial character of these corridors. In addition, the standards of the proposed PUD district include minimum side and rear setbacks, and enhanced site and building design standards to mitigate the impact that uses within this zoning district may have on the abutting properties and protect against nuisances related to industrial type uses. An enhanced landscape bufferyard between the proposed uses and the abutting residential subdivision to the south is proposed, further providing a buffer between these uses. These requirements facilitate a design that mitigates the impact of industrial or commercial uses on adjacent property. 4. The zoning change is compatible with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and with the character of the neighborhood. Complies The proposed general commercial and business park/industrial zones within this Planned Unit Development (PUD) district are consistent with the development pattern along IH 35 and SH 130; properties surrounding the subject property along these major roadways are also zoned for similar uses (General Commercial (C-3) and Industrial (IN)) and are envisioned for development of similar scale and use by the 2030 Comprehensive Plan. In addition, the proposed 200-foot use restricted zone along the south portion further mitigates the impact that the industrial uses may have on the residential neighborhood to the south. 5. The property to be rezoned is suitable for uses permitted by the District that would be applied by the proposed amendment. Complies The subject property is surrounded by major highways that provide access to other parts of the city and region, and may accommodate high volumes of traffic, typically see in regional commercial centers and industrial parks. In addition, the size of the subject property and areas of the proposed districts allow any uses permitted in these districts to be developed in conformance with the zoning district standards, to include parking, landscaping, bufferyard, setbacks, and impervious cover requirements. In addition to the rezoning criteria above, staff has reviewed the request and determined that the proposed request complies the criteria and objectives established in UDC Section 3.06.040 for a Planned Unit Development (PUD), as outlined below: PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT (PUD) APPROVAL CRITERIA 1. A variety of housing types, employment opportunities, or commercial Complies Page 80 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-10-PUD Northpark 130 Page 12 of 13 PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT (PUD) APPROVAL CRITERIA services to achieve a balanced community. The purpose of this PUD is to provide an economic base job creator district by providing an area that permits highly intense commercial, office, research and service uses, as well as manufacturing, warehousing, distribution, and other industrial uses. To achieve this goal, this PUD allows by right or with limitations a mix of commercial, services and manufacturing uses to achieve a balanced community. No residential uses are proposed to be permitted within this PUD. 2. An orderly and creative arrangement of all land uses with respect to each other and to the entire community. Complies The proposed Planned Unit Development (PUD) request includes a general commercial zone along the freeways that permit uses consistent with the character that is envisioned for these corridors, UDC, as well as supporting industrial uses. The middle of the property proposes a business/industrial zone that permits a range of light to heavy industrial uses, as well as limited supporting commercial uses. To accommodate the mix of uses, this PUD includes additional building and site design standards to protect, enhance and maintain the commercial corridor along these roadways; provide a clear transition of the built form from the roadways to the south boundary of the subject property and between the zones (i.e., use of a main and secondary private drives); and enhanced landscape buffer where the property abuts residential use, district, or subdivision. In addition, to further mitigate the impact that the proposed industrial uses may have on the residential neighborhood to the south, a use restricted zone is proposed to be designated along the south 200 feet portion of the subject property. 3. A planned and integrated comprehensive transportation system providing for a separation of pedestrian and vehicular traffic, to include facilities such as roadways, bicycle ways, and pedestrian walkways. Does Not Comply The proposed Planned Unit Development (PUD) district is for a mix commercial and industrial park. No comprehensive transportation system is proposed. 4. The provisions of cultural or recreational facilities for all segments of the community. Does Not Comply The proposed Planned Unit Development (PUD) district is for a mix commercial and industrial park. No cultural or recreational facilities are proposed. 5. The location of general building envelopes to take maximum advantage of the natural and manmade environment. Partially Complies The submitted Conceptual Plan does not include the location of the specific buildings to be developed on the subject property. Location, size, and number of buildings will be determined by the end user at time of Site Development Plan, and thus at this time, staff may not determine if the location of the buildings will take advantage of the natural or manmade environment. However, it should be noted that the proposed Planned Unit Development (PUD) district includes zoning standards to regulate the placement of buildings on the property in relation to adjacent property, as well as in relation to private shared drives that may be provided throughput the project. These Page 81 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-10-PUD Northpark 130 Page 13 of 13 PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT (PUD) APPROVAL CRITERIA standards include emphasis and architectural treatments on the primary and secondary entries, particularly for building proposed within the zone along the roadways (Zone A). 6. The staging of development in a manner which can be accommodated by the timely provision of public utilities, facilities, and services. Complies The proposed Planned Unit Development (PUD) does not include a phasing plan. It is staff’s understanding that “regional” facilities needed for the entire development, such as the stormwater improvements in the south portion of the property, will be constructed first. Based on the findings listed above the requested amendment to the City’s Zoning Map generally complies with the approval criteria for this type of amendment. The vision set by the Future Land Use for this Regional Center area supports the commercial and some industrial uses, as well as the zoning and site design standards that have been included in the proposed Planned Unit Development (PUD) district. However ,the amount of industrial being requested as part of this PUD, and the relatively small amount of commercial proposed, may point to a deviation from this vision and a contrast with existing development.

Psencik recorded in Volume 357, Page 268 of the Deed Records of Williamson County, Texas; part of that certain tract of land described in Deed to Amelia Wittera and husband, Bohous Wittera, Miloslav Psencik and wife, Martha Psencik, and Lydia Ann Davis and husband, Arthur Davis (hereinafter referred to as Wittera et al tract) recorded in Volume 472, Page 133 of the Deed Records of Williamson County, Texas; said tract also being all of that certain tract of land described in Warranty Deed to Ruth Ann Sudduth recorded in Instrument No. 2011069151 of the Official Public Records of Williamson County, Texas; all of that land described in Warranty Deed to Linda Wittera Vise recorded in Instrument No. 2011069152 of said Official Public Records; and all of that certain tract of land described in Deed to Ruth Ann Maxey recorded in Volume 689, Page 807 of said Deed Records of Williamson County, and described by metes and bounds in Exhibit B, herein defined as the “Property”. B. PURPOSE The proposed Northpark130 Planned Unit Development (PUD) district will serve the growing demand for economic based regional and national businesses needing to take advantage of direct access to the Interstate and Highway systems. The Northpark 130 PUD will ultimately be an economic base job creator for the City of Georgetown, thus providing the opportunity for residents to live, work, and play in the City of Georgetown. The industrial aspects of this project will create a vibrant and diverse economy and minimize the workday exodus to Austin and other surrounding communities. The commercial aspects of this project will not only create jobs, but provide important service and retail opportunities for residents, while also enhancing the City’s tax base and reducing retail leakage to neighboring communities. Overall, the project’s goal is to keep more residents working and spending money in the City of Georgetown. The proposed zone change to a Planned Unit Development will allow suitable industrial and commercial uses, while also protecting the character of the City of Georgetown. The Property is located within an area that serves as an important northern entry point to the City of Page 86 of 309 Case Number 2020-10-PUD Page 2 of 9 Georgetown and certain elements have been included in this PUD to respect and maintain the integrity of the area. Due to the Property’s location adjacent to both an interstate and single-family residential neighborhood, careful standards have been considered to appropriately transition the project between the two vastly different uses. The PUD will implement standards that both promote the look and feel of the frontage, while providing appropriate buffering to the neighborhood adjacent to the Property. Specifically, these standards include significant design enhancements along the Interstate and Highway frontages, and a 200-foot use restricted area adjacent to the Crystal Knoll Terrace neighborhood along the back of the Property. These standards will enhance the area and protect the health, safety, and general welfare of the City, and the safe, orderly, and healthful development of the City. The Property is designated as a Regional Center by the 2030 Comprehensive Plan, and as a result allows commercial uses along the IH-35 and S.H. 130 Toll frontages to create a more robust economic ecosystem in line with the goals of the Regional Center designation. To accomplish this vision, this PUD is proposed with a base district of Business Park, which is described in the Georgetown, TX Unified Development Code as such: “The Business Park District (BP) is intended to provide a location for office, research, and light industrial uses typically located as part of a large development. The BP District may be appropriate adjacent to residential areas, provided that there is adequate buffering and pedestrian and vehicular access to the residential area for workers in the business park….” This PUD serves to augment and/or modify the standards for development outlined in the City’s Unified Development Code (UDC) in order to implement the vision for the Property and insure a cohesive, quality development not otherwise anticipated by the underlying base zoning district. In accordance with UDC Section 4.06.010.C “Development Plan Required”, this Development Plan titled Exhibit A is a summary of the development and design standards for the property. C. APPLICABILITY AND BASE ZONING In accordance with UDC Section 4.06.010.A “Compatibility with Base Zoning District”, all development of the property shall conform to the base zoning district of the Business Park (BP) district . Except for those requirements specifically deviated by this Development Plan, all development standards established in the most current version of the UDC at time of development shall be applicable, including amendments or ordinances adopted after the date of this PUD. In the case that this Development Plan does not address a specific item, the City of Georgetown UDC and any other applicable Ordinances shall apply. In the event of a conflict between the regulations of this PUD and the regulations of the base zoning district, the PUD shall control. Page 87 of 309 Case Number 2020-10-PUD Page 3 of 9 D. CONCEPTUAL LAND PLAN A Conceptual Land Plan has been attached to this Development Plan as Exhibit C to illustrate the land uses and design intent for the Property by designating the property into three (3) different zones: • Zone A (General Commercial Zone). This zone comprises of a total of approximately 11.1487 acres and constitutes the front portion of the Property along IH-35 and SH 130 Toll roadways to be developed with general commercial and service uses, as well as supporting industrial uses. This zone extends a minimum 200-foot depth from the edge of the right-of-way. • Zone B (Business/Industrial Park Zone). The zone is approximately 66.694 acres and constitutes the middle portion of the Property to be developed with a mix of business and industrial uses. • Zone C (Use Restricted Zone). This zone is approximately 7.568 acres and constitutes the south 200 feet of the Property. No uses may be developed within this zone. Drive aisles, vehicle parking, outdoor recreation spaces, non-truck court paved areas, stormwater facilities, utility services, and other landscape and site features may occur within this zone. Buildings, use specific structures, outdoor display or storage, fleet vehicle parking, and truck courts shall be prohibited in this zone. The Conceptual Land Plan is intended to serve as a guide to illustrate the general vision and design concepts and is not intended to serve as a final document. As such, the proposed building and parking configurations are subject to refinement at time of Site Plan review. Approval of this PUD, Development Plan, and Conceptual Land Plan does not constitute approval of a Site Plan per Section 3.09 of the UDC. E. LAND USES The proposed uses for the Property include a mix of industrial uses with supporting general commercial, office, services and other similar uses. Exhibit D includes a list of permitted and prohibited uses within Zones A and B as described below. All uses are prohibited within Zone C. 1. Uses Permitted by Right (“P”). 2.

The properties are currently zoned as Agriculture and being utilized as a homestead and farming. We are proposing to rezone the proprieties as a Planned Unit Development. Access to the site is proposed off IH 35 N and SH 130 with internal connectivity. The water service is proposed to be pulled off an existing main within IH 35 N right-of-way and the southern adjacent residential tract. The wastewater service is proposed to discharge into an existing 10” line adjacent to the southern residential tract. We feel that to the best of our knowledge, the proposed zoning change complies with the criteria outlined in UDC Section 3.06.030: A. The application is complete, and the information contained within the application is sufficient and correct enough to allow adequate review and final action; All items from the application checklist have been provided. B. The zoning change is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan; The City’s future land use map identifies these properties as a Regional Center. Per the 2030 comprehensive plan a Regional Center is defined as “major shopping centers, standalone big-box retailers, or large-scale mixed-use developments, as well as supporting flex office space and office/warehouse development. These developments are typically automobile oriented with convenient access from major transportation routes and highway interchanges, however internal pedestrian connectivity is maximized and includes opportunities for pedestrian activity.” The proposed land use is warehousing and distribution, limited, which falls under the City’s definition for a regional center as it will primarily act as an establishment engaged in the storage, distribution, or movement of materials, equipment, or goods within an enclosed structure for themselves or other firms. Page 109 of 309 201 W. 5th Street ■ Suite 1100 ■ Austin, TX 78701-0060 ■ 512.485.0831 ■ pkce.com C. The zoning change promotes the health, safety or general welfare of the City and the safe orderly, and healthful development of the City; The proposed zoning change promotes responsible growth in alignment with the current zoning surrounding and the City’s future land use map. D. The zoning change is compatible with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and with the character of the neighborhood; and Adjacent properties are zoned as agricultural, industrial, and general commercial. The proposed zoning change aligns with these existing and adjacent uses. E. The property to be rezoned is suitable for uses permitted by the district that would be applied by the proposed amendment. The properties proposed to be rezoned are suitable for the use as commercial, warehousing and distribution, limited. The proposed project will promote and further important goals and policies outlined in the City of Georgetown 2030 Comprehensive Plan: 1. Plan Framework a. Goal 5: Ensure effective communication, outreach, and opportunities for public participation and community partnerships to foster a strong sense of community. i. Response: The project team has had weekly meetings with the City of Georgetown Planning Department to ensure the PUD is properly vetted and in keeping with the goals and policies of the City. Additionally, the project team has maintained consistent communication with the Crystal Knoll Terrace neighborhood to hear and address some their concerns, including an on-site, socially distant meeting with several neighborhood residents. Open communication with City staff and the neighborhood is integral to our process and will ensure a project that makes the community proud. 2. Gateways and Image Corridors a. Policy GC.1: Leverage the Highway Corridors to promote economic development and an inviting, positive image of Georgetown i. Response: The proposed development will directly promote economic development through the creation of quality, economic-based and service-based jobs. The I-35 and SH 130 frontage has been carefully considered in the design standards outlined in the PUD and is reserved for uses that are commercial and service-based. This land use distribution and design standards will create an inviting and positive image for this important northern entry point to the City. 3. Future Land Use a. Policy LU.1: Encourage a balanced mix of residential, commercial, and employment uses at varying densities and intensities to reflect a gradual transition from urban to suburban to rural development. Page 110 of 309 201 W. 5th Street ■ Suite 1100 ■ Austin, TX 78701-0060 ■ 512.485.0831 ■ pkce.com i. Response: The PUD includes both commercial and industrial uses to promote a diverse and vibrant economic ecosystem at the site. The frontage and rear of the site have been carefully vetted to ensure proper transition between uses. b. Policy LU.5: Identify potential opportunities and selectively target, plan, and promote development/reuse initiatives. i. Response: The project includes specialized development standards and uses intentional infrastructure investment to promote development initiatives and drive economic development opportunities to the City of Georgetown. The project team is working with the City of Georgetown on development initiatives related to financial incentives for wet and dry utilities that will serve the project and benefit surrounding areas. c. Policy LU.7: Strengthen Georgetown’s image and quality feel within enhanced gateways and commercial corridors. i. Response: The PUD includes specific design standards that help to respect and maintain the image and feel of this northern entry point to the City. These standards include (1) intentional design that screens heavier uses along the frontage, (2) enhanced building entry design, and (3) enhanced articulation requirements in the commercial area. d. Policy LU.8: Protect and promote land uses that support Georgetown’s target industries, support diversification of the City’s tax base, and enhance economic development through intentional infrastructure planning, recruitment, and the land use entitlement process. i. Response: The project team has spent considerable time working with the City of Georgetown Economic Development Director to plan intentional and creative economic development opportunities at the subject site. The site will attract both economic-based and service-based jobs that will create a diverse economic ecosystem and enhance the City’s tax base. The project team has worked weekly with the City of Georgetown Planning Department and neighborhood to revise the PUD application so that it best serves the City of Georgetown community. The project team is working with the City on intentional infrastructure planning that will benefit the site and surrounding areas. e. Policy LU.10: Support the City’s growth and development using a decision framework that promotes fiscal health, safety, and quality of life for our current and future residents. i. Response: The project team has worked together with the City of Georgetown Planning Department on this PUD application to come up with standards that will best serve the City of Georgetown, while also allowing for a development that will be a job creator and serve the needs of Georgetown residents. f. Policy LU.15: Proactively plan investments in transportation and other infrastructure to leverage partnerships with the business community and Page 111 of 309 201 W. 5th Street ■ Suite 1100 ■ Austin, TX 78701-0060 ■ 512.485.0831 ■ pkce.com interested neighborhood organizations and maintain the level of service as the City continues to grow. i. Response: The project team is working with the City of Georgetown on development initiatives related to financial incentives for wet and dry utilities that will serve the project and benefit surrounding areas. Additionally, the design of the drainage infrastructure for the subject site is intended to minimize flooding occurring in the Crystal Knoll Terrace neighborhood during heavy rain events.

Applicant: Greystar, c/o David Walsh Property Owner: Leander Health Realty, LLC, c/o Larry Parker Request: Zoning Map Amendment to rezone the subject property from Residential Single-Family (RS) to High Density Multi-Family (MF-2). Case History: This is the first public hearing of this request. This item was presented at the January 19, 2021 Planning and Zoning Commission meeting where after hearing public comment, the applicant requested to postpone the item to a later date. Page 141 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-32-REZ 903 Riverhaven Drive Page 2 of 9 Overview of Applicant’s Request The Applicant is requesting the rezoning of the subject property in order to build approximately 172 total unit Class A, age-restricted apartment home community for adults age 55+ (Exhibit 5, Letter of Intent). The Applicant states that amenities will include a clubhouse, fitness center, arts space, community pool, dog park, and more. The proposed project would include approximately 160 apartment units in a 4-story elevator served building and 12 single-story cottage style homes. Site Information Location: The subject property is located at 903 River Haven Drive. The 8.705-acre property is roughly divided into two pieces (8.05-acres to the west and .66 acres to the east) due to the 1-acre Guadalupe Cemetery generally located between these two portions. Physical and Natural Features: The subject property is predominately flat with moderate tree coverage. There are two existing structures on-site due to the property formally being a nursing and rehabilitation center. The structure located along the western boundary is an estimated 4, 500 square feet while the centrally located second structure is an estimated 30, 322 square feet. Future Land Use and Zoning Designations: The subject property has a Community Center and Mixed Density Neighborhood Future Land Use designations and is currently zoned Residential Single-Family (RS). The subject property is also located within the Scenic/Natural Gateway Overlay district. Surrounding Properties: The subject property is located between FM 971 to the north and San Gabriel Park to the south, just south of the Parkview Estates residential community entrance. The FM 971 corridor has primarily developed with single-family residential neighborhoods and large ranch/agriculture tracts. Other nearby residential neighborhoods include River’s Edge, Katy Cove, and Katy Crossing. While some commercial zoned properties exist closer to N Austin Ave, about half of these properties are vacant and the other half developed with a medical office, fuel sales station and convenience store, and multi- family. There is also a 1-acre cemetery located along the eastern portion of the site that divides the subject property. The current zoning, Future Land Use designation, and existing uses of the adjacent properties to the north, south, east and west are outlined in the table below: Page 142 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-32-REZ 903 Riverhaven Drive Page 3 of 9 DIRECTION ZONING DISTRICT FUTURE LAND USE EXISTING USE North Residential Single- Family (RS), Local Commercial (C-1), Two-Family (TF) Mixed Density Neighborhood (MDN) & Community Center (CC) Parkview Estates, Chevron, & DaVita Georgetown Dialysis East Residential Single- Family (RS) Community Center (CC) Rivers Edge Subdivision South Public Facility (PF) Parks and Recreation & Open Space (OS) San Gabriel Park & Rivers Edge Subdivision West Public Facility (PF) Parks and Recreation San Gabriel Park Property History: The subject property was annexed into the city limits in 1965 (Ordinance 65-A1). The subject property was formally used as nursing home and rehabilitation center. This is the first rezoning request for the subject property. Comprehensive Plan Guidance Future Land Use Map: The 2030 Comprehensive Plan Amendment Map displays two Future Land Use (FLU) for the 8.705- acre subject property. Approximately 2.16 acres are located within the Mixed Density Neighborhood (MDN) FLU and 6.55-acres are in the Community Center (CC) FLU. San Gabriel Park Chevron Guadalupe Cemetery Rivers Edge Subdivision Parkview Estates Subdivision Page 143 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-32-REZ 903 Riverhaven Drive Page 4 of 9 The Mixed Density-Neighborhood category is described in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan as a blend of single-family and medium-density housing types. Medium density housing options are consistent with and complementary to the traditional single-family neighborhood with emphasis on connectivity and access to neighborhood amenities including schools and parks. Development standards for medium density housing and any nonresidential uses are in place to ensure compatibility through increased setbacks for taller buildings, architectural designs that are consistent with the neighborhood, location of more intense uses and development nearer to the edge of developments, and enhanced landscaping. Additionally, any nonresidential uses are located primarily at arterials and other major roadway intersections and include appropriate buffering. The Community Center category is described in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan as areas typically configured as “nodes” of smaller scale at the intersection of arterial roads and other major thoroughfares. These developments provide local retail, professional office, and service-oriented businesses that serve the residents of Georgetown. While typically auto-oriented, pedestrian connections to the surrounding neighborhoods are provided. Well-integrated residential developments, which encourage the interaction of residents and businesses, are appropriate and vertical mixed-use developments are encouraged. To promote the interaction of integrated and adjacent residential development, these areas emphasize quality building and site design, such as enhanced architectural features, landscaping, and prominent pedestrian Facilities. Other Master Plans: Due to its location along FM 971, the subject property is also located within the Scenic Image Corridor adopted as part of the 2030 Plan Update. Scenic corridors preserve the rural, low-intensity, natural environment that surrounds Georgetown. Appropriate uses along scenic corridors include residential, commercial, retail. These corridors feature significant native landscaping and large setbacks between the roadway and buildings to support the natural appearance. Lighting is limited along scenic corridors to maintain dark night skies. Signage is minimized to limit visual clutter along the corridors and includes native materials and landscaping. Sidewalks or shared multi-purpose paths are provided along these roadways to allow for safe pedestrian travel. Community Center (CC) DUA: 14 or more Target Ratio: 80% nonresidential, 20% residential. Primary Use: Small to mid-size retailers. Secondary Uses: Medium and high density residential, local restaurants, specialty retailers, professional office, civic uses. Mixed-Density Neighborhood (MDN) DUA: 5.1-14.0 Target Ratio: 80% nonresidential, 20% residential. Primary Use: Variety of single-family home types (detached, duplex, townhome) Secondary Uses: Limited neighborhood-serving retail, office, institutional, and civic uses. Page 144 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-32-REZ 903 Riverhaven Drive Page 5 of 9 Utilities The subject property is located within the City’s service area for water, wastewater, and electric. It is anticipated that there is adequate capacity to serve the subject property at this time. A Utility Evaluation may be required at time of Site Development Plan to determine capacity and any necessary utility improvements. Transportation The subject property is surrounded by three roadways: 1. Major Arterial-FM 971, an estimated 1, 734 feet of frontage. Arterial streets provide traffic movement through and between different areas within the city and access to adjacent land uses. Access is more controllable because driveway spacing requirements are much greater and, if safety dictates, overall access can be limited to specific turning movements. Major Arterials connect major traffic generators and land use concentrations and serve much larger traffic volumes over greater distances. 2. Local Roadway-River Haven Drive, an estimated 1,207 feet of frontage. These streets are intended to provide access to adjoining properties by collecting the traffic from surrounding areas and distributing it to adjoining collectors or arterial streets. Local streets can access both collector level streets and arterial level streets. 3. Major Collector Roadway-E. Morrow Street an estimated 600 feet of frontage. These streets are intended to balance traffic between arterial streets and local streets. These streets tend to carry a high volume of traffic over shorter distances, providing access and Page 145 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-32-REZ 903 Riverhaven Drive Page 6 of 9 movement between neighborhoods, parks, schools, retail areas and the arterial street system. A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) will be required at time of Site Development Plan for any development that generates more than two thousand (2,000) average daily trips based upon the latest edition of the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual. Proposed Zoning district The High-Density Multi-Family (MF-2) zoning district is intended for attached multifamily residential development, such as apartments and condominiums, at a density not to exceed 24 dwelling units per acre. Properties zoned MF-2 should have direct access to major thoroughfares and arterial streets and should not route traffic through lower density residential areas. The MF District is appropriate adjacent to both residential and non-residential districts and may serve as a transition between single-family districts and more intense commercial districts. Permitted uses in this district include, but are not limited to, attached multi-family, group homes (7-15 residents) and nursing/convalescent homes. Other uses such as churches, day care facilities, and neighborhood amenity centers, among others are permitted subject to specific design limitations. Certain land uses, including activity centers, bed and breakfasts, and halfway houses, require a Special Use Permit (SUP). Exhibit 4 contains a comprehensive list of MF-2 district permitted uses and development standards. Intergovernmental and Interdepartmental Review The proposed rezoning request was reviewed by all applicable City Departments to determine the appropriateness of the requested zoning on the subject property. No comments were issued regarding the zoning request. Approval Criteria Staff has reviewed the proposed rezoning request and has found that it complies with 3 and partially complies with the remaining 2 criteria established in UDC Section 3.06.030 for a Zoning Map Amendment, as outlined below: ZONING MAP AMENDMENT (REZONING) APPROVAL CRITERIA 1. The application is complete and the information contained within the application is sufficient and correct enough to allow adequate review and final action. Complies An application must provide the necessary information to review and make a knowledgeable decision in order for staff to schedule an application for consideration by the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council. This application was reviewed by staff and deemed to be complete. 2. The zoning change is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Partially Complies The 2030 Comprehensive Plan designates two Future Land Uses for the 8.705 acre subject property: Mixed-Density Neighborhood (MDN) and Community Center (CC). Taking into consideration the subject property’s location, boundaries, access, neighboring properties, geographic features/barriers Page 146 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-32-REZ 903 Riverhaven Drive Page 7 of 9 ZONING MAP AMENDMENT (REZONING) APPROVAL CRITERIA and other similar factors, staff determined that the subject property may be more appropriate to be analyzed from a Mixed-Density Neighborhood (MDN) framework. The portion of the property that is located within the Community Center node fronts the intersection of FM 971 (major arterial) and Morrow St (proposed major collector). However, this intersection has been developed with a mix of low to medium density residential, to include low density multi-family, as well as public parkland. Only a small percentage of commercially entitled property is located at the edge of this node. The Mixed-Density Neighborhood envisions primarily a mix of residential uses ranging in type and density up to a maximum density of 14 dwelling units an acre, and secondary neighborhood supporting commercial uses along major thoroughfares. In addition, as previously mentioned, FM 971 has been identified as a Scenic Image Corridor in the 2030 Plan. Scenic corridors preserve the rural, low-intensity, natural environment that surrounds Georgetown. Appropriate uses along scenic corridors include residential, commercial, retail. Scenic corridors not only serve as major arterials into the community, but also serve as corridors to the rural farmland to the east and lower density development of the hill country to the west. The priority of these are to create a welcoming gateway that allows for a transition from the rural/ lower intensity development of these areas into the formally developed portions of the city. Promotion of this areas includes: • Prioritizing lower intensity uses along the scenic corridors. • Creating transitions in uses and streetscaping within corridors that were previously identified as scenic but have evolved into urban corridors. Due to all of these factors, the Community Center node envisioned for this area is better suited closer to the intersection of FM 971 with N Austin Ave and NE Inner Loop. The vision and character of the Mixed Density Neighborhood FLU designation is a reflection of the character of the surrounding area and development pattern along this portion of FM 971. Land Use policy LU.2 of the 2030 Comprehensive Plan aims to Promote development of complete neighborhoods across Georgetown. Well maintained and stable neighborhoods provide a high quality of life for residents. New neighborhoods should include a variety of housing options and price-points, access to neighborhood serving commercial, and recreational and cultural amenities. With the subject’s properties location along FM 971 and neighboring San Gabriel Park, the proposed zoning change appears to be in line with this Land Use Policy. However, it should be taken into consideration that the High-Density Multi-Family (MF-2) zoning district allows a maximum density of 24 dwelling units an acre, while the Mixed-Density Neighborhood (MDN) envisions a mix of density ranging from 5.1-14.0 dwelling units per acre. While the MF-2 zoning district would permit a higher density that is supported in the adjacent Community Center node, a less intense zoning district such as Low Density Multi-Family (MF-1) with a maximum DUA of 14 may be more appropriate for this property due to the existing character, and character envisioned by both the Mixed Density Neighborhood and Scenic Image corridor. It should also be noted that since the proposed zoning amendment is changing from one residential Page 147 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-32-REZ 903 Riverhaven Drive Page 8 of 9 ZONING MAP AMENDMENT (REZONING) APPROVAL CRITERIA zoning district to another, the current and targeted ratios for this area will not be altered. 3. Thee zoning change promotes the health, safety or general welfare of the City and the safe orderly, and healthful development of the City. Complies The proposed zoning poses no danger to the public health, safety, or welfare. The subject property is suitable for the uses allowed under the proposed High-Density Multi-Family (MF-2) zoning district. In addition, the subject property is located along a major arterial and major collector level roadways suitable to accommodate additional density and the only adjacent property is an existing cemetery. If this property were to be rezoned, a Traffic Impact Analysis would be required at the time of Site Development Plan if the proposed use is projected to receive 2,000 trips or more per day, to identify either improvement needed for FM 971 or monies to be contributed toward larger scale improvements. 4. The zoning change is compatible with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and with the character of the neighborhood. Partially Complies The requested High Density Multi-Family (MF-2) zoning district would be compatible with the present zoning and conforming uses of the surrounding area. The City of Georgetown UDC states that MF-2 development should have direct access to major throughfares and should not route traffic through lower density residential areas. In addition, the subject properties isolation due to being surrounded by roadway’s, limits the likelihood of conflicting land uses. However, the subject property is located within the Scenic/Natural Gateway Overlay district due to its frontage along FM 971. The Scenic/Natural Gateway Overlay district is intended to preserve the rural, low-intensity, natural environment that surrounds Georgetown. The 2030 Comprehensive Plan for the Scenic Corridor Vision aims to provide lower intensity development to maintain natural character of the area. Therefor the High Density Multi-Family (MF-2) district may be seen as too intense for this particular site. Furthermore, the MF-2 zoning district permits a higher maximum building height of 45’, compared to the surrounding Residential and Local Commercial zoning districts maximum building height of 35’. 5. The property to be rezoned is suitable for uses permitted by the District that would be applied by the proposed amendment. Complies The subject property comprises of approximately 8.705-acres, which is more than the 2 acres minimum lot size required for the High-Density Multi-Family (MF-2) district. There is sufficient developable area to develop the site with any of the permitted uses in this zoning district in compliance with all the development standards, including but not limited to setbacks, parking, impervious cover, and landscaping. Staff’s Analysis: Staff finds that 3 out of the 5 criteria for a rezoning request complies, while the 2 remaining criteria Page 148 of 309 Planning Department Staff Report 2020-32-REZ 903 Riverhaven Drive Page 9 of 9 partially comply. This is primarily due to the requested zoning district High Density Multi-Family (MF-2) having a much higher permitted Dwelling Unit per Acre (DUA) than what is intended for the Mixed Density Neighborhood (MDN) Future Land Use and for properties located within the Scenic Gateway Overlay. Staff finds that if the property is to be rezoned to accommodate multi-family development, Low-Density Multi-Family (MF-1) may be a more appropriate zoning district.

This letter serves as the Letter of Intent required by the City for a proposed rezoning. The Property, shown on Exhibit A attached hereto, is located generally southeast of the intersection of Riverhaven Drive and FM 2606. The Property is currently zoned Residential Single-Family (RS). We are requesting a rezoning to MF-2 in order to build an approximately 172 total unit Class A, highly amenitized age-restricted apartment home community for adults age 55 or better at an attainable rate (the “Project”). This site is particularly well suited for 55 and better housing due to its proximity to the Georgetown Recreation Center and San Gabriel Park. Amenities will include a clubhouse, fitness center, arts space, community pool, dog park, and more. The proposed project would include approximately 160 apartment units in a 4-story elevator served building and 12 single-story cottage duplex style homes. The Property currently resides in both the Community Center and Mixed-Density Neighborhood categories, as depicted in the City’s Future Land Use Map, as shown on Exhibit B attached hereto. According to the Comprehensive Plan, the Mixed-Density Neighborhood zone seeks a primary use of a variety of single- family home types (detached, duplex, townhome), and the Community Center Zone looks for medium and high density residential as a secondary use. The Project will be situated with the 4-story elevator served building located within the Community Center zone and the cottages located within the Mixed-Density Neighborhood, which is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The Project will likely take access from both Riverhaven Drive and FM 2606. Furthermore, the City of Georgetown will be the provider for utilities. While there is a structure on the Property currently, it will not be utilized in the Project. We will be pursuing a demolition in accordance with City rules and regulations. Under Section 3.06.030 of the City’s code, the approval criteria are met in the following ways:  The application is complete, correct, and sufficient enough to allow adequate review and final action.  As listed above, the zoning change is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.  This change promotes the general welfare of the City and the healthful development of the City by providing a thoughtful, integrated development that serves a growing segment of Georgetown’s population.  The zoning change is compatible with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby properties and the character of the neighborhood: to the west across Gann Street is a retirement community, Page 154 of 309   KEVIN PIERCE  512.404.2222  KPierce@mwswtexas.com      221 West 6th Street, Suite 1300, Austin, TX 78701 • 512.404.2200 • fax 512.404.2244 • www.mwswtexas.com to the north is single family residential and a dialysis, to the south is San Gabriel Park, and to the east is a single family neighborhood. None of the adjacent uses or zoning are incompatible with the Project, and an active adult residential community near a park and multi-generational recreation center is particularly harmonious.  The property is suitable for the active adult residential use permitted by the proposed MF-2 district. For the above listed reasons, we believe that a zoning of MF-2 for the Property allows for a more harmonious development of the area, and promotes healthful and responsible development within the City.

I'm sending a quick note to voice my opposition to the proposed zoning change for the construction of a 4 story multi family complex on Riverhaven Dr. Page 160 of 309 My biggest concerns are the foreseeable increase in traffic, crime and the safety of our neighbors and the quality of place the park brings to this corner of town. In my opinion it just doesn't make sense to put such a large development basically in the middle of our beautiful San Gabriel Park. We've worked hard to make the park an asset, let's keep it that way! Thanks for your consideration, Colleen Cook 200 Rio Vista Drive Georgetown, TX 78626 Page 161 of 309 From:Brandy Heinrich To:Michael Patroski; Andreina Davila Subject:FW: [EXTERNAL] P&Z Regular Meeting 2/16/21 Citizen Comment Date:Tuesday, February 16, 2021 4:59:00 PM Public Comments Thank you, Brandy Heinrich Planning Department Development Accounting Specialist Office Ph. 512-930-3575 From: Jacob Cook < Sent: Tuesday, February 16, 2021 4:53 PM To: WEB_Planning <planning@georgetown.org> Subject: [EXTERNAL] P&Z Regular Meeting 2/16/21 Citizen Comment [EXTERNAL EMAIL] Greetings members of the P&Z committee, I'm writing to share my opposition to the proposed zoning change for the property at 903 Riverhaven Dr., item BI on tonight's agenda. Of primary concern is the massive potential increase in traffic and our ability to safely enter and exit the neighborhood. There will undoubtedly be more wrecks in the area with the addition of 172 residences on such a small parcel. Second, there is unfortunately the very real possibility of an increase in criminal activity in both districts 6 & 7. I understand that everyone needs a place to call home, regardless of income or status. However, statistics show that multifamily complexes almost always increase crime rates. Finally, does this type of development truly fit in with the City's master plan? Do we not call that portion of FM971 the "Scenic Corridor"? The City has been very effective using tax payer resources to enhance San Gabriel Park. Do we really want to squander it by allowing such a large visual barrier to the natural landscape? I encourage you to think about the quality of place that Georgetown provides. It's the reason my wife and I moved to such a wonderful community. Your work on the committee gives you the ability to further establish Georgetown as a quality place to live and play. Page 162 of 309 Do we really want apartment complexes in the heart of the park...with tongue in cheek, are we trying to become Pflugerville?

Our Home Owners Association has sent us the information regarding this project. We believe that the density being proposed is too high given the area and the size of the lot. 172 apartments means close to the same number of cars if not more, and we cannot determine from the design information where there is sufficient parking for this number of vehicles. The number of apartments proposed likely also means mostly 2 people per apartment such that the population would be more or less 344 people so there will be significant activity into and out of this complex which will impact the traffic on FM 971 which does not seem yet developed for this increase in traffic. We also think that for any apartment building being considered for 55+ people in particular, and all multistory apartment buildings generally, that elevators should become a required part of these buildings. It seems unreasonable to expect elderly people to climb steps in all weather with groceries, etc. From the prorposal information we received we could not determine if elevators are a part of the desigh. We are not opposed to development. But development should be consistent with what the community can absorb now. We object to the current proposal. Thank you for carefully considering our request. Respectfully, Manuel and Vicki Ramirez-Lassepas 112 Benchmark Street, Georgetown, TX Page 168 of 309 -----Original Message----- From: Jennifer Cain < Sent: Monday, January 18, 2021 10:10 AM To: WEB_Planning <planning@georgetown.org> Subject: [EXTERNAL] 903 Riverhaven drive My name is Jennifer Cain I live across the street from the nursing homes at 903 riverhaven drive at 100 Parque Circle. Though I would be the first to agree that abandoned building is an eyesore I am strongly opposed to the proposed project to build apartments in that space. I used to look out my back porch at a beautiful open field and that was ruined when the rental neighborhood was put in. At least now I can still see the park in the distance but all our entire neighborhood will see is a giant apartment complex. Our city is being ruined with the amount of new builds being allowed to go up. The traffic on 971 is already a nightmare especially at that intersection of riverhaven, 971 and Parque vista drive where there is way to many cars especially since that rental neighborhood went in and I can’t even imagine how bad it will be when the condos next to Parque view estates are finished! I would like my strong objection to project case number 2020-32-REZ noted please. Jennifer Cain Page 169 of 309 Project Name/Address: 903 Riverhaven Project #: 2020-32-REZ PZ Date: 1/19/2021 Case Manager: Michael Patroski Good morning, my name is Justin Eagle and I live at 108 Pecan Vista Cove in in Park View Estates in Georgetown. I am a lifelong resident of the county have lived at this address since my wife and I built this home in 1996. I am writing to state my position AGAINST the 903 Riverhaven project. My family and I walk or bike to the park regularly as well, and our kids go to the nearby schools. Why do I oppose this project? The proposed project just does not fit in the area. Unlike the adjacent single-family neighborhoods close by, this would be a tall eyesore and a visual barrier to the park as we move about the area. The density of the project would significantly increase traffic in all directions—on 971 itself, as well as Parkview Estates and San Gabriel Park as their residents seek to get to/from the property. Please do not approve the proposed zoning change. I am greatly worried that if this project goes forward it will be a detriment to our neighborhood.
