In plain language — from the agenda backup
A rezoning case for two East Austin properties at 206 Medina and 1010 East 2nd Street, in the Waller Creek Watershed, owned by Christ Church of Central Austin. The applicant asks to shift from single-family residence zoning (SF-3-NP) to general commercial services with mixed use and vertical mixed use building designations (CS-MU-V-CO-NP), which opens the door to commercial and residential development on land currently zoned for houses. City staff recommends a lighter-touch neighborhood commercial designation (LR-MU-V-CO-NP), while the Planning Commission backs the applicant's broader commercial request as amended \u2014 so Council is choosing between two different visions for how intensely the site gets used.
