Council to consider rezoning 2.89 acres on Davis Lane for storage

W.W. Deerfield Ltd. is asking Austin to rezone the undeveloped 2.89-acre property at 3601 Davis Lane from GR-CO to CS-CO for a proposed mini-warehouse with convenience storage. The request would allow buildings up to 50 feet tall and a 1:1 floor-area ratio while keeping building coverage at 50% and prohibiting specified uses. Staff recommends denial; the Zoning and Platting Commission recommended approval with additional prohibited uses. City Council postponed the request on Nov. 5 to Nov. 19, when it is scheduled for a public hearing and vote.
