Results pending - the transcript was not clear enough to call this one. The official minutes will settle it.

In plain language — from agenda source text

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. The item has no fiscal impact.

Current official agenda wording

Funding: This item has no fiscal impact.
