In plain language — from the agenda backup

This is a first-reading vote on rezoning property along South Lakeshore Boulevard and East Riverside Drive — near Lady Bird Lake — to add it to the South Shore Planned Unit Development. The change would shift the land from East Riverside Corridor zoning to a PUD-NP designation, which can come with custom rules, fee waivers, or modified city regulations specific to the development. Both city staff and the Planning Commission recommend approving it, with the commission backing a modified version.
