In plain language — from the agenda backup
This item amends the East Cesar Chavez Neighborhood Plan to redraw the future land use map for a cluster of properties near Waller Creek \u2014 112 and 206 Medina Street, 1005 and 1010 East 2nd Street, and 105 San Marcos Street \u2014 shifting them from Single Family, Recreation and Open Space, and Civic to Mixed Use. The future land use map guides what kinds of development the city expects on a site, so a change here sets the stage for a mix of homes and commercial uses on land currently mapped for houses, open space, and civic purposes. The request comes from Christ Church of Central Austin, represented by Thrower Design, and both city staff and the Planning Commission recommend granting the Mixed Use designation. A public hearing is part of the item.
