In plain language — from the agenda backup
This is a public hearing and ordinance amending the Montopolis Neighborhood Plan to redraw the future land use map for 400 Vargas Road and 6520 Lynch Lane, switching those parcels from Commercial to Mixed Use. The future land use map is the guiding document neighbors and staff point to when new projects come forward in Montopolis, so a change here shapes what can be proposed on this East Austin site near the Colorado River. Both city staff and the Planning Commission recommend granting the Mixed Use designation, which was requested by the property owners through their agent, Thrower Design.
