Staff Report
MEETING DATE: August 5, 2026
ADDRESS: 2200 Lakeway Blvd
ACREAGE: 1.0222 acres
LEGAL LOT DESCRIPTION: ABS 2122 SUR 83 RUSK TRANSPORT CO
APPLICANT: Shane Connaughty of Magnolia Construction on behalf of owner Ross
Newberry.
REFERENCE: SUP-0022-2026
REQUEST: The site is the existing Lakeway Texaco gas station, service station, small
convenience store, and an inactive car wash. The request from the new owner is to remove
the six service bays and enclose the space to update to a full convenience store without
expanding the building. Other site improvements will also be made to parking, internal
circulation, the fuel pumps, the car wash, drainage, ADA accessibility, and possibly water
quality and detention.
A Special Use Permit (SUP) is required in a C-1 (Office/Retail) district for a convenience
store, car wash, and gas station. This item was originally scheduled for the July 1 ZAPCO
meeting, however, it was rescheduled to the August meeting due to an error in the public
notification.
GEOGRAPHIC CONTEXT: The property is zoned C-1 (Office/Retail). The residential area to
the south is separated from this property by Lakeway Blvd.

Page 9 of 66
PUBLIC NOTICE: Advertisement in the paper and notification letters were mailed out to all
property owners within 200 feet of this property. Public comments for the July and August
meetings that were submitted through the online portal have been provided to the
commissioners.
STAFF ANALYSIS: The existing site is currently “grandfathered” or legal, non-conforming for
several issues. Approving the SUP will give the owner the land use determination to allow them
to begin engineering for the next phase of site design.
The attached site plan from the addition of the car wash calculates the current amount of
impervious cover as 56.53%.
BASIS FOR ACTION: SUPs are required when a proposed use is classified as a “conditional use”
or a “special use” in the city code, where a use may be harmonious under certain conditions but
requires City Council approval.
Regulations allow ZAPCO to recommend approval of an SUP subject to changes, additions,
limitations, safeguards, or time periods which are reasonably related to the approval criteria.
ACTION REQUESTED: ZAPCO recommendation to City Council regarding a Special Use
Permit at 2200 Lakeway Blvd, to allow for the operation of a convenience store, car wash,
and gas station.

MEETING DATE: August 5, 2026
ADDRESS: 100 Birrell
ACREAGE: 1.0742 acres
LEGAL LOT DESCRIPTION: LOT 1 LAKE TRAVIS TRANSITIONAL MEDICAL
CENTER
APPLICANT: Benjamin Lewis of BDG Architects and Prestige Development Group on
behalf of owner Welltower OM Group LLC.
REFERENCE: SUP-0023-2026
REQUEST: The proposal is for a small-format bank with two drive-through lanes for video
tellers and ATMs. Operating hours will be 9:00 to 5:00 Monday through Thursday, 9:00 to
6:00 on Friday, and 9:00 to 2:00 on Saturday.
The ITE Trip Generation calculation of 237 daily trips is based on the data for standard
banks. As a small-format bank, experience from other branches leads the applicants to
estimate that the actual trips will be in the range of 58 to 70 trips per day.
A Special Use Permit (SUP) is required in a C-1 (Office/Retail) district for a drive-through
window.
GEOGRAPHIC CONTEXT: The property is on the corner of Birrell and RR 620, so the only
physically adjacent neighbor is the United States Post Office.

PUBLIC NOTICE: Advertisement in the paper and notification letters were mailed out to all
property owners within 200 feet of this property. No comments were submitted through the
online portal at the time of writing this report.
STAFF ANALYSIS: The existing site is vacant. The Building & Development Services
Department has received multiple inquiries about potential development of the site for various
uses. Three of those inquiries have resulted in applications for an SUP since 2018.
Other than this request, the only formal submittals were for a Car Wash, in 2018, and a Valvoline
drive-through quick oil change, in October 2025. Both requests were recommended for approval
by ZAPCO and denied by City Council.
BASIS FOR ACTION: SUPs are required when a proposed use is classified as a “conditional use”
or a “special use” in the city code, where a use may be harmonious under certain conditions but
requires City Council approval.
Regulations allow ZAPCO to recommend approval of an SUP subject to changes, additions,
limitations, safeguards, or time periods which are reasonably related to the approval criteria.
ACTION REQUESTED: ZAPCO recommendation to City Council regarding a Special Use
Permit at 100 Birrell, to allow a Fifth Third Bank with two drive-through lanes.
