Approve a resolution initiating the rezoning of approximately 0.32 acres of City-owned property known as the Emma S. Barrientos Mexican American Cultural Center…

This resolution kicks off a rezoning of about a third of an acre of city-owned land at 58 and 64 Rainey Street — the pocket park attached to the Emma S. Barrientos Mexican American Cultural Center — so the site can be zoned for parks and recreation use. Rainey Street has been a fast-changing corridor for years, and the change would line up the zoning on the books with how the land is actually used as green space next to the MACC. Because the property already belongs to the City, this step is about the land's zoning designation rather than an acquisition.

This is a historic landmark designation for the James Harvey and Pearl Caldwell House at 400 West 37th Street, just north of campus in the Waller Creek watershed.

This item adds historic landmark protection to the Doris Miller Auditorium at 2300 Rosewood Avenue, rezoning the city-owned site in the Boggy Creek Watershed from P-NP to P-H-NP.

As a resolution, it sets the assignment and timeline rather than changing the rules today s the actual requirements come back to Council later as a proposed ordinance.

This is a public hearing and ordinance to remove about 1.86 acres at 815 South Quinlan Park Road from Austin's city limits, using the disannexation process created by Texas Senate Bill 1844 from the 89th Regular Session. The parcel out in the Steiner Ranch area of District 10 currently straddles two kinds of city authority — part sits in Austin's full purpose jurisdiction and part in limited purpose jurisdiction — so the change redraws which rules and services follow the land.

This is a public hearing and ordinance on floodplain variances for 1120 Denfield Street, where a property owner wants to convert an accessory structure into a dwelling unit that sits inside the 100-year floodplain of Tannehill Branch Creek. City Code normally restricts building homes in that zone, so Council has to sign off case by case, weighing added housing against the realities of where Austin's creeks rise.

This ordinance reopens the 2002 Circle C settlement agreement — the deal that resolved fights over how the Save Our Springs Ordinance applies in that part of far southwest Austin — for roughly 246 acres near where southbound Mopac meets SH 45. The amendment allows more residential and multifamily units on the tract, reworks development and parkland rules, and changes traffic control and access requirements, including dropping the owner's obligation to build the South Bay Extension. The land sits in the Barton Springs Zone, which is why the SOS settlement governs it in the first place. The item has no fiscal impact.

This is a public hearing on terminating a public restrictive covenant tied to a 1986 zoning case at 4009 Banister Lane, in the West Bouldin Creek Watershed.

The owners want to shift from limited office (LO-NP) to neighborhood commercial zoning with a conditional overlay (LR-CO-NP), a change that opens the door to small-scale retail and commercial uses rather than just offices, with the overlay spelling out limits on what can go there. City staff and the Planning Commission both recommend granting the LR-CO-NP zoning, with the Planning Commission's version coming through as amended. Council holds a public hearing before acting on the ordinance.

This is a neighborhood plan amendment for three adjoining properties on Nuckols Crossing Road in Southeast Austin, switching their future land use designation from Single Family to Multifamily Residential. The future land use map guides what zoning the city supports on a site, so the change is the first step toward allowing apartment-style development where the plan currently calls for houses. City staff and the Planning Commission both recommend granting the Multifamily Residential designation. The land sits in the Williamson Creek watershed, and the applicant is KB Nuckols, LLC.

When developers opt to pay a fee instead of building affordable units under the Citywide Density Bonus Program, that money lands in a City fund — and this resolution sets priorities for how it gets spent, specifically a target income level for those affordable housing investments. It's a question of who the dollars serve, not how many dollars come in: the item doesn't change the total amount of fee-in-lieu collected. For Austinites watching density bonus deals reshape their neighborhoods, this is the follow-the-money piece.

This is a public hearing and ordinance amending City Code Section 25-2-656, the Citywide Density Bonus (DBC) combining district rules, on how developers meet their affordability obligations \u2014 specifically whether an applicant can write a check instead of building income-restricted rental units on site. It matters because it shifts where the affordable homes actually land: inside the new building versus funded elsewhere through the city's fee-in-lieu pot. According to the item, certain projects in the program would provide on-site affordable housing rather than paying the fee, which could reduce fee-in-lieu collections over time, offset by the on-site units the development delivers.

Council is weighing whether to extend wastewater service to a 2.85-acre tract at 1107 Castle Ridge Road, which sits in some of Austin's most sensitive turf — the Drinking Water Protection Zone, the Barton Springs Zone, and the city's two-mile extraterritorial jurisdiction. Because it touches the Barton Springs watershed, extending utility lines here is the kind of decision that carries environmental weight beyond a single hookup. There's no fiscal impact to the city; the property owner pays the infrastructure costs to connect to Austin Water's system.

Approve a resolution initiating rezoning of property at 5807 Ross Road, Austin, Texas, to allow for food sales use on the property.

The Council is kicking off a rezoning process for the property at 5807 Ross Road that would allow food sales to operate there. This resolution is the first step, formally starting the change rather than finalizing it. If it moves forward, neighbors could see a new food-related business at that spot.

This resolution would have the City Manager give the Community Development Commission a heads-up whenever a rezoning application comes in for a property that already has multifamily housing on it. The idea is to loop the Commission in early enough that it can weigh in with recommendations before Council makes a call. For renters living in those buildings, it's a chance to have an advisory body flag concerns as zoning changes move through the pipeline.

The Council is holding a public hearing on whether to disannex about 0.198 acres at 1810 Rockcliff Road in District 8, effectively redrawing the city's boundary to remove this small parcel. The move is being made under Texas Senate Bill 1844, passed in the 89th Regular Session. Part of the property currently sits in Austin's full-purpose jurisdiction and part in its limited-purpose jurisdiction. The item has no fiscal impact.

The Council is holding a public hearing and weighing an ordinance to disannex roughly 0.277 acres at 6705 Elfland Drive in District 10, pulling that small parcel out of Austin's full-purpose city limits under state law (Senate Bill 1844). It's a tiny boundary tweak, but it shifts which jurisdiction the property answers to for services and rules. The item is noted to have no fiscal impact.

Council is holding a public hearing on whether to disannex about 0.219 acres at 6703 Elfland Drive in District 10, removing it from Austin's full-purpose city limits under Texas Senate Bill 1844. Disannexation reshapes which services and rules apply to a property, so even a small parcel signals how state law is reworking the city's boundaries. The city notes this item has no fiscal impact.

Council is holding a public hearing on an ordinance that would rewrite the rules for those old billboards around town that don't meet today's sign code. The changes spell out when and where these non-conforming billboards can be relocated, plus new height limits if they move. The item also waives the usual steps for amending the sign code, including standard public hearing notice and Planning Commission review. The change has no fiscal impact.

This is a rezoning request for four properties on Middle Fiskville Road, in the Walnut Creek Watershed, that would shift the land from residential and neighborhood commercial uses to general commercial services — the kind of zoning that opens the door to a use like automotive sales. The applicant wants a straight CS-NP designation, but both staff and the Planning Commission recommend adding a conditional overlay (CS-CO-NP), which typically limits certain uses or sets extra conditions on the site. Council will hold a public hearing before deciding which version, if any, to approve.

Circuit of the Americas — the home of Austin's Formula 1 track out at 9201 Circuit of the Americas Boulevard — wants to tweak the rules governing its planned unit development for the third time. The amendment would change conditions of the existing PUD zoning and could include fee waivers, alternative funding methods, modifications of City regulations, and property acquisition. Both city staff and the Zoning and Platting Commission recommend approving the change, which heads to a public hearing before council votes.

This is a rezoning request for a property at 8901 East U.S. 290 (out in the Walnut Creek Watershed), where the owner wants to switch from commercial and limited industrial zoning with conditional overlays to straight limited industrial service (LI) zoning. Dropping the conditional overlays opens the door to a wider range of industrial uses on the site. Both city staff and the Zoning and Platting Commission recommend approving the LI zoning.

This is a public hearing and first-reading vote on rezoning three parcels near Lady Bird Lake — at 1705 and 1717 South Lakeshore Boulevard and 1712 East Riverside Drive — to fold them into the South Shore Planned Unit Development. The shift from East Riverside Corridor zoning to a PUD-NP designation matters because PUDs come with their own custom rulebook, and this ordinance could include waivers of City fees, modifications of City regulations, and even property acquisition. Both city staff and the Planning Commission recommend approving the PUD-NP zoning, with the Commission backing a modified version.

This is a rezoning request for 1811 East Cesar Chavez Street, where the owners want to switch the property's zoning to allow commercial liquor sales (CS-1) in this East Side spot along the Lady Bird Lake Watershed. There's a real split here: city staff recommend denying the change, while the Planning Commission recommends granting it — and neighbors have filed a valid petition in opposition, which raises the bar for Council approval. The hearing gives the community a chance to weigh in before Council decides.
