TownLake YMCA PUD Redevelopment Scoping, Education and Visual Docs
You may have heard about the YMCA’s planned development.Many of us are long-term YMCA members and support the need for a new YMCA facility, more childcare, and affordable housing.
In keeping with the Old West Austin Neighborhood Association’s mission, the Steering and Zoning Committee is reviewingMillennium Partners’Planned Unit Development (PUD) zoningfor the redevelopment of the 4.8-acre TownLake YMCA site. ThePUD includes three residential towers up to 425 feet tall (with 750 units), the first high‑rise towers west of Lamar Boulevard, andwould raise impervious cover from 56% to 95% and use adjacent parkland for stormwater detention.
OWANA is conducting a collaborative review of zoning, environmental, traffic, and parkland impacts. Formal recommendations will be provided to city staff. Input from neighbors, city departments, and stakeholders is being gathered.
To help focus conversationsduringTuesday, December 2nd’s OWANA General Meeting, will you please take time before the meeting to:
1. Review the TownLake YMCA PUD materials provided below.
2. Stroll/walk on the hike/bike trail to refresh yourself on the property involved and its proximity to the park, Lamar Boulevard, and Cesar Chavez Street.
