Item 47 - November 4, 2004
Consider recommendations regarding redevelopment in the Rainey Street Subdistrict of the Waterfront Overlay District, including initiation of appropriate amendments to City development regulations. (Public hearing held and closed on October 21, 2004.) (Reviewed by Design Commission, Downtown Commission, Historic Landmark Commission, Parks Board and Planning Commission; and Zoning and Platting Commission.) (Related Items Z-1, Z-2, Z-3, Z-4, Z-5, Z-6, Z-7, Z-8)
There was a motion by Council Member Alvarez and a second by Mayor Pro Tem Goodman to approve recommendations regarding redevelopment in the Rainey Street Subdistrict, with the following direction to staff. The motion passed on a 6-0 vote. Council Member Slusher abstained. Staff was directed to initiate amendments to the Land Development Code pertaining to the Waterfront Overlay that are consistent with the framework outlined by Council Member Alvarez which includes the following: Support a limitation on building heights to 60 ft. unless the following issues are addressed, in which case CBD height (with an 8:1 FAR) would be permitted.(1) Affordable Housing (UNO standard).(2) Meet current ordinances for development near Town Lake and Waller Creek with a possible addition of a Townlake setback.(3) Require 10-foot streetfront setback, 45-foot basewall height, and 15-foot building stepback along Red River Street.(4) Set a 50-foot height restriction for building masses located within 50 feet from River Street to serve as gateway to the Mexican American Cultural Center (MACC).In addition, create a scoring matrix to address other issues that have been raised pertaining to future development of the Rainey Street District and direct staff to develop a matrix taking into account the issues outlined in this proposal and adding consideration of the sidewalk and tree standards that may be comparable to the UNO standards. Add any additional requirements or specifications that staff deems necessary to initiate the amendment process for the Waterfront Overlay which would go before the Planning Commission and brought back to the Council.(1) Urban design characteristics. ' 75 points total(a) Does the project include two or more land uses, with a required residential component, with no single land use constituting more than 75% of the project'(b) Is there an interconnection of the project components through pedestrian friendly pathways between buildings'(c) Does the project include pedestrian-oriented space fronting Cesar Chavez St., Red River St., Rainey St., and River St.'(d) Does the project position key components around central public spaces (with a goal of having 20% public/open space within the development)'(e) Is the parking underground' Does above-ground parking comply with Downtown Design Guidelines for parking' If project makes use of structured parking, does ground floor accommodate active use'(f) Does the project meet the Downtown Design Guidelines (including guidelines for parking)'(g) Does the architecture and landscape respond to the unique character of the site (e.g., regional materials, landscape, etc.).(h) Does the project improve street connectivity'(i) Do ground-floor residential units have principal entrance directly from street'(j) Does the design of the project avoid creating a canyon effect along Rainey St. and along the edge of the MACC'(2) Preservation of historically significant structures ' 25 points totalA friendly amendment was made by Council Member McCracken to include a second alternative approach with CBD zoning. The amendment included no limit of height; CBD zoning would be conditioned on certain requirements being met that can be defined as a range of items in the matrix setup by Council Member Alvarez. The approach would not place a limit on height as a condition of construction, but the approach also identifies prohibited uses and building types. This was accepted by the maker of the motion and Mayor Pro Tem Goodman.
