CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS MINUTES OF THE CITY COUNCIL CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS Special Meeting December 22, 1953 10:00 Α.Μ. Council Chamber, City Hall 993 993 The meeting was called to order with Mayor McAden presiding. Roll Call: Present: Councilmen Long, Pearson, Thompson, White, Mayor McAden Absent: None The Mayor announced this meeting was called for the specific purpose of discussing the budget for 1954. MRS. T. J. ARCHER, JR., Vice President, Casis P.T.A., asked that Exposition Boulevard be included in the paving of the 1954 Budget. She asked that Exposition Boulevard from Bowman to north of 35th be considered. The City Manager stated no decision had been made on the streets that will be paved with the $145,000 available for paving. Discussion of closing down the incinerator for repairs was held, and using sanitary fills until it was put back into operation. Discussion of having one garbage collection weekly was held. The City Manager stated it would require $350,000 a year to replace the One and a half million dollars of various equipment that should be replaced about every five years, and it had not been possi- ble to set this amount up. After discussion, Councilman Long moved to continue the twice-a-week garbage pick up, and the part in the Budget of the City Manager's suggestions of once-a-week pick up be removed, and continue as is. This would not do away with the closing down of the incinerator. The motion, seconded by Councilman Pearson, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Long, Pearson, Thompson, White, Mayor McAden Noes: None Councilman Pearson felt that when the City came to the time it ran out of money, the people would be willing to pay for this pick-up service. Councilman Thompson inquired about building an office for the Fire Marshal in the Police and Courts Building--if that couldnot be eliminated and this office be located in the City Hall, or in the Fire Station at Blanco and CITY OF AUSTIN. TEXAS 994 994 10th. The City Manager explained these two locations could not be used; that a location at the Police and Courts Building would be good as there was an assembly place there that could be used along with the work the Fire Marshal needed to do. Discussion on the recreation plans was held. Councilman Long moved that the Budget be amended on page xxiii to change the proposed bond sales, "Parks, Playgrounds & Recreation" from $218,000 to $243,000; and to amend the tables on P. xxi, and 210 and 211 to conform with page xxv; add "(h)", Taylor Slough Area, increasing "Land Purchases" total from $125,000 to $150,000; increasing Total of all Projects from $341,393 to $366,393. The motion, seconded by Councilman White, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Long, Pearson, Thompson, White, Mayor McAden Noes: None Councilman Long inquired about the paving costs on Bull Creek Road set up as $80,000, and the contract was for $50,000. The City Manager explained the City was paying cash for this and it was anticipated that shout $20,000 of the papers would have to be carried, so that there would be in effect $80,000 tied up in the deal, in which $20,000 would be paid back over a period of time. Any money in that particular account would be put into the paving. Councilman Long moved that $15,000 be transferred from the item "Street Widnening" (page xxvi)--West 5th & West 6th Streets from Lamar to Baylor; Guadalupe Street; 25th Street north; Guadalupe Street and 19th--and that the money allocated for paving--street widening--be transferred to the Residential Paving Budget of $142,000. The motion lost for lack of a second. Councilman White was particularly interested in the widening of 19th and Guadalupe. The Mayor called the Council's attention to the fact that Congress Avenue was getting in bad shape, and the rains last September washed up some of the topping. There is a need of a better lighting system in the down town area. There had been a request that the Council ask the State to better illuminate the Capitol. Discussion of reducing the city's participation in paving was held. Councilman Thompson inquired with the new specifications for paving, that if the city participated 10%, the paving should not cost the property owners any more than under the other set-up, and the city would be able to participate in more paving. The Director of Public Works felt that some would not come in under this program, but that there would be a lot that would, and the City's money would go further. Councilman Pearson suggested that in an approach to paving streets in residential districts, that consideration be given to appointing a committee consisting of two of the paving contractors who do a lot of paving and contracting a lot of these people, Mr. Latson, and four other people that would study an approach to improve our solution to pave the streets and come back to the Council with a suggestion. Councilman Long moved that the City Manager be instructed to sell the property at 27th and Guadalupe--to advertise it by legal publication, take the proceeds therefrom for the purpose of resurfacing of Congress Avenue and whatever amount is left, use it for the improvement of the street lighting system. CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 995 995 The motion, seconded by Councilman White, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Long, Pearson, Thompson, White, Mayor McAden Noes: None Councilman Thompson inquired about the possibility of employing a firm whose business it was to reorganize city governments, and also inquired about the costs. He believed the modernization of methods would result in a big savings in the long-run. Councilman Pearson had had comments made to him on such a survey; some with the belief that the results would not wind up any better than what we have now. Councilman White thought the suggestion was very sound, but he favored going through every department in the survey. Councilman Long thought the idea had its merits, but suggested, since this budget was for only nine months, that the Council gather information and bring it in to be included in the next year's budget. The Mayor wondered if there would be enough profit to justify the expenditure of such an amount for a survey. Some concerns thought they were fine things, and some thought the surveys had amounted to a waste of money. Councilman Pearson suggested a committee of business firms that had operated efficiently and had had these surveys to look into this matter and advise the Council. The City Manager stated the administration would endorse such a program. The International City Managers' Association accumulatesexperience on this type and keeps the members circularized with the way different municipal problems are met. Councilman Thompson asked for some means of advising the Council of what is going on. No action was taken by the Council at this time. Councilman Long moved that the Budget on page 178 be amended to increase the estimate of nine months' revenue from power sales from $1,173,000 to $1,290,300 and put that $117,300 in an unappropriated reserve to remain untouched until further Council orders. That is your 10% increase on power. The motion, seconded by Councilman White, lost by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Long, White Noes: Councilmen Pearson, Thompson, Mayor McAden Councilman Long moved that the City Manager be instructed to instruct the City Attorney to provide for a 10% reduction in water rates for water meter readings during May, June, July and August, for a summer water rate. The motion, seconded by Councilman White, failed to carry by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Long, White Noes: Councilman Thompson Present but not voting: Councilman Pearson, Mayor McAden Discussion of inventory was held, but no Council action taken. Councilman White inquired about the cost of 22 signal lights. The City Manager explained it was not only the cost of the connections, but to connect with the entire system. Councilman Pearson asked for a list of those 22 lights that were planned in 1954. CITY OF AUSTIN. TEXAS. 996 996 The City Manager pointed out a mistake on Page 32, Personal Service, Planning and Zoning Section. The rate for the Planner should be $2.37 instead of $1.92. The other figures would be changed to correspond. Mayor McAden introduced the following ordinance as amended: AN ORDINANCE ADOPTING AND APPROVING THE BUDGET FOR THE YEAR 1954 AND MAKING APPROPRIATIONS FOR EACH DEPARTMENT, PRO- JECT AND ACCOUNT; AND DECLARING AN EMERGENCY. The ordinance was read the first time and Councilman Thompson moved that the rule be suspended and the ordinance as amended passed to its second reading. The motion, seconded by Councilman White, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Long, Pearson, Thompson, White, Mayor McAden Noes: None The ordinance was read the second time and Councilman Thompson moved that the rule be suspended and the ordinance as amended passed to its third reading. The motion, seconded by Councilman White, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Long, Pearson, Thompson, White, Mayor McAden Noes: None ; The ordinance was read the third time and Councilman Thompson moved that the ordinance as amended be finally passed. The motion, seconded by Councilman White, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Long, Pearson, Thompson, White, Mayor McAden Noes: None The Mayor announced the ordinance had been finally passed. Councilman Long made the following statement regarding her vote: "I am sorry that the Council did not vote the summer water rate at this particular time, thinking planning ahead is better. I am sorry the Council refused to put the 10% increase on the 300 most prosperous people in the City of Austin, the big power users; but otherwise, I think that although the Budget is kind of a patched up affair depending upon the future action of the people of Austin, I will have to vote for it." The City Manager submitted the following: dated October 30,1953 from the Board of Trustees, Brackenridge Hospital: * * * * * "Report and recommendations regarding charges to private patients: Corner room, pvt.bath, air conditioned Corner room, pvt. bath Corner room, connecting bath Pvt. room, connecting bath St. David's Brackenridge Change to ---- ---- ---- 13.50 Seton $15.00 $12.00 $13.50 ---- 12.50 11.50 11.00 12.50 - 992 997 CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS Seton St.David's Brackenridge Change to Pvt. room, connecting bath Pvt. room, pvt. bath Pvt. room, no lav. or bath Semi-pvt.,connecting bath Semi-pvt.,put. bath Semi-pvt., no bath $13.00 ---- -- $10.00 $11.00 11.00 12.00 9.50 9.00 9.50 8.00 9.50 (with ph.) 7.00&8.00 9.50 9.00 10.00 8.00 7.00 7.00 8.00 Multi-bed ward (Annex) 5.00 ۱ 6.00 5.50 6.50 6.00 7,00 6.50 7.50 Multi-bed ward (South) Multi-bed ward (North) 6.00 $.00 6.00 7.00 Nursery Flat Rate 10.00 4.00 3.00 4.00 for 5 days Premature 5.00 5.00 5.00 Estimated yearly increase in revenue if above rates are changed as proposed: $30,000. * * * * * * Councilman White moved that the rates submitted by the Hospital-Board as per the sheet submitted under date of October 30, 1953 be approved.

Councilman Thompson asked about the reaction of the people towards raising the rate at Barton Springs and Deep Eddy, and charging a very small fee for neighborhood parks. The Director of Recreation stated the reaction of one big organization he had talked to was "no". He recommended ańincrease of 54 more a swim at Barton and Deep Eddy, as a reasonable increase. There being no further business the Council adjourned at 5:45 Ρ.Μ. subject to the call of the Mayor.

In addition to the budget for this nine months interim period, we are also presenting for your information, proposed expenditures for the period October 1, 1954 through December 31, 1954, so that the Council might have a full year's estimates to review. The latter three months budget will never be actually used of course, since beginning October 1, 1954, the city's fiscal year will run from October 1 through September 30. A tentative draft of these papers was filed with the City Clerk on November 19. Any consideration of Austin's needs, and the funds available with which to meet those needs, must take into account this basic problem: Austin's continued dynamic growth, and the constant requirements for capital outlay, especially in our utilities, at a time when costs are rising and no utility bond money is available for utility expansion. Each year, we add a new city of approximately 7,000 people to Austin. The needs of these new citizens needs which cover every phase of city activity such as police and fire protection, water, electricity, sewage, recreation facilities, garbage service --- complicate and magnify the accumulated CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS ii loof 1004 services and facilities which we have not been able to fill in previous decades. This presents to our City a revenue problem which must be faced. Without utility bond money, necessary utility expansions must come from current utility earnings. But this very statement poses dangers which have been mounting through the years. Earnings from our city-owned utilities have always presented an "easyway" to divert necessary money to the support of our general government. At thepresent time, over 40% of the city's general fund resources are represented by the transfer from the utilities. This is a condition which has been called to our attention several times. Our auditors have told us "that it may be determined that if the (utility) system had been properly maintained, funds would not have been available for transfer to the General Fund for use in operating the general government. Inasmuch as these surplus funds will not be avail- able for transfer to the General Fund in the future, it will be necessary to obtain revenues for the operation of general government from other sources, improve operating efficiency, or curtail services." The sound financing of our general government activities is absolutely vital if we are to maintain our essential utility services in even minimum fashion. Our general fund resources are limited. Tax rates for this year have already been set and billings made, so nothing can be done there. However, the Council does have the authority to make changes in certain fees, fines, permits and charges which are made for certain services of the city. Recommendations concerning this will be made later in this document. We are constantly striving to increase operating efficiency and will continue to do so. In lieu of additional income, thought has also been given to a CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS iii 1005 1005 curtailment of certain services. Here, Austinites have come to expect the same standards of excellence in city services which they have come to expect in other phases of our city life. This kind of answer to the problem will not be an easy one nor a popular one if it is taken. Nevertheless we shall also have recommendations of this nature later in this message. Thus, for the present, the City is faced with the very specific problem of maintaining our utility fund transfer at the lowest possible level. It may be noted on page 1 of the attached report that we estimate in 1953 a transfer of $2,587,000 to the General Fund. On page 3, you may see that the budget submitted herewith contemplates a transfer in 1954 of $2,499,751. This is a re- duction of $87,249 in the amount of transfer. It is urgently hoped that a reduction may be made year after year and that this City Council will give serious thought to the problem of adequate general fund resources. In the meantime, our electric and water departments, with one-third of their gross revenues diverted to other city uses, delay long-overdue building and replacement programs. Both departments are in need of definite expansion immediately and this confronts us with a problem which we must face now. ##### On the following page will be found a table showing expenditures for 1953 and proposed for the year 1954, classified according to the major funds, Fund 1004 1006 CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS iv Table 1 1953 9 mos., '54 3 mos., $54 Total '54 Increase General $ 6,191,984 $ 4,891,474 $ 1,481,270 $ 6,372,744 $ 180,760 Utility 5,230,699 4,597,375 Subtotal 11,422,683 9,488,849 705,281 2,186,551 5,302,656 71,957 11,675,400 252,717 Int. & Sink- 1,668,870 ing Fund 2,301,325 -0- 2,301,325 632,455 Special 4,768,411 2,755,348 918,450 3,673,798 (-1,094,613) Bond Funds GRAND $ 17,859,964 $ 14,545,522 $ 3,105,001 $ 17,650,523 ($209,441) TOTAL GENERAL FUND REVENUES (pp. 9-10) These pages, showing a detailed breakdown of General Fund resources, again point up the heavy reliance of this fund on the transfer from the Utility Fund. The total resources available to the General Fund from General Fund income only is $3,872, 402. The property tax, lowest among larger Texas cities, actually represents only a little more than half this amount $2,075,990. This includes $154, 114 from delinquent tax collections and $56,415 in interest and penalty. Thus, we estimate that our delinquent tax collections will run some $70,000 over 1953 figures. In addition to the property tax, non-tax sources such as fines, fees, permits, and departmental earnings will bring in an estimated $1,796,412. The addition of the $2,499,751 transfer and a small balance estimated at $5,229 will then give us a total of $6, 377, 382 in General Fund Resources.. 1007 1007 CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS V EXPENDITURES The 1954 General Fund budget contemplates a total expenditure of $6, 367, 744 leaving a minimum reserve of $9,638. This expenditure is an estimated increase of some $180,000 over that estimated to be expended in 1953. This increase is due almost entirely to the 5% salary increase granted during : 1953. Such salary increase was in effect for only 6 months during 1953, but the full impact is felt on this budget. Following is a brief resume of the General Fund accounts: Administrative and Finance (pp. 12-40) This account includes the City Manager's Office, Municipal Court, Accounting, Tax Office, Purchasing, City Attorney, City Clerk, Personnel, Planning, Civil Defense, Municipal Building and general overhead. The 1954 contemplated expenditure is $868,279 as compared to an estimated $853,274 in 1953. This $20,000 increase occurs primarily for two reasons: (1) the general salary increase of 1953 which has increased each department's personal services budget, and (2) a $16,683 increase in the Planning Department budget to make this unit a real working force. Austin citizens by their adoption of the charter amendment establishing a Planning Department have indicated their interest in sound community planning. This cannot be accomplished without essential personnel and other expenditures within our own Planning Department. It should be noted that the Accounting Department's proposed budget is a reduction from 1953. This is a tangible evidence of the saving which can be accomplished through our IBM machine system. Another reduction in this section CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 10081008 vi is one of almost $40,000 which the city should save in 1954 over 1953 in general overhead expenditures. This extra amount in 1953 was caused by the two elections(charter and regular) and the expensive printing of the charter as required by state law. Personal services in this whole section are actually down from $470,400 in 1953 to approximately $462, 429 in 1954. This is primarily because the Tax Department will spend some $30,000 less on salaries and wages in 1954 than they will during 1953. We asked the Council for extra money for this Department in the 1953 budget, promising that it would be for temporary help to help process the more than 7,000 suits which the City filed. That work has, in the main, been accomplished. Conversion to IBM will be completed in 1954 and so, as promised, the Tax Department's request for salaries and wages is reduced by some $28,622. With the complete conversion to IBM, further reductions can be made in general administrative personnel in the next few years. However, if will require another year to make the entire conversion whereby these economies can be truly effected. The delinquent tax program, pursued so diligently in 1953, was concerned mostly with personal property suits. The year 1954 will see this program extended into real property taxes as well as keeping up to date on personal property suits. Public Safety (pp. 42-60) The Public Safety section of our City is composed of the Police, Fire, Traffic and Transportation, General Inspection, and Fire Prevention Departments. CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 1009 1009 vii The total budget requirements for these five departments foresees the expendiure of $1,833,971 as compared to an estimated expenditure of $1,647,988 for 953. This is an increase of 11.3%. Approximately $120,000 of this is repreented in increased salaries of the police and fire departments for the year 1954. The wage increases that were made in those departments exceeded the 5% that ras made to general city employees. This was particularly true of new recruits. 'ormerly, it took a new employee in these two departments three years to reach what we termed our base pay. This has now been considerably accelerated. A ew man is started at $220, is advanced to $250 after his six weeks instruction1 period, goes to $260 at the end of six months, and to $272 at the end of one ear. We now consider the base pay of a private in the police and fire departments at $270. This acceleration of pay, plus the general increase, plus the tate-required tenure increases which amount of $24 per year per man, accounts or the major portion of the increase in this section of the budget. The other primary reason for an increase in this section is the moving f the Police Department into their own building in January. To properly staff he new building and maintain it, a building engineer, two janitors, four civilian ailers, and three equipment caretakers or pound guards have been added to the -udget. The four civilian jailers will relieve uniformed men for police duty. The men represent an approximate increase of $20,000 in the operation of the Police Department. Capital outlay in the Police Department budget amounts to some $98,000 In 1954. This is a carry-over of the contract for the new building of approximately $80,000 plus an amount of about $18,000 for furniture for the new CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 1010 1010 viii building and vehicular equipment replacement. Only a small sum is set up for the latter for the money is just not available to buy and do what should be done. An incidental cost which has been increased in the Police budget is the addition of 7 school patrolmen during the year. These are elderly part-time employees employed for this purpose and brings our total of that classification to 29. This is a most worthwhile expenditure and the relieving of regular patrolmen of this type duty is being followed more and more throughout the country, The number of personnel in the other departments in this section remain the same as they have been with the exception of one additional man to be employed in the Traffic and Transportation Department. Public Works (pp. 61-88) The Public Works Department consists of the Engineering, Street and Bridge (Maintenance and Construction), Sanitation, Cemeteries, Park, and Airport Divisions. The 1954 budget of the Public Works Department is estimated at $1,335,419. This is an overall decrease of one and a half percent over 1953 despite a 4 1/2% increase in personal service expenditures. The new budget contemplates $1,005,000 for this item against $961,000 in 1953. The major portion of this has been an increase in personnel in the Parks Division. Again this year, capital outlay expenditures in this Department have been cut drastically. Eight open-bed trucks in the Sanitation Division which are now costing considerable to operate, should be replaced, but this item would cost approximately $50,000 and had to be omitted. In order to alleviate CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS ix Not approved. Jee Minutes 10/1 1011 1953 December 22, the need for this $50,000 expenditure, it is recommended that the two per week garbage collection now in effect in our residential areas be reduced to once each week. If this were done, we would not need to use these 8 trucks that need replacement and our manpower could be reduced by 25 men. However, it is further recommended that if the Council does approve one collection each week, that all the present personnel be retained and that the City pick up the cans at the rear of each house or wherever the homeowner might place them. This would take care of one of the standing complaints which the City has and that is the complaint of citizens having to place their cans at the curb in order to have their garbage and refuse picked up. The establishment of a policy wherein our employees would do the transporting of the cans might entail the home owner buying an additional can, but we believe that the esthetic advantages gained would more than offset these expenditures and the City would save, not only the cost of the new trucks now needed, but the constant expense of new equipment as well as gasoline and repairs to existing equipment. We are further recommending that for the year 1954, the incinerator be closed down for repairs. We have been unable to take it our of service in order to ascertain the exact cost of repairs, but it is thought that it will take some $50,000 in order to accomplish these repairs and we simply do not have the money this year. The repair would require almost a full year. In the interim, it will be necessary for us to set up an additional sanitary fill which will make it necessary for us to acquire an additional bulldozer at the new dump. The sanitary fill method has proven to be an economical and healthful method of garbage disposal, and it is suggested that the above be carried out in 1954. CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS X 1 1012 1012 It should be stated here that the equipment in the Public Works Departnent, particularly of the Street and Bridge Division, is fast becoming deteriora- ed and should be replaced from an efficiency and operating standpoint, but this cannot be accomplished in 1954. Public Health (pp. 89-119) The Public Health section of the budget includes the Health office, Brackenridge Hospital, TB Sanitorium, and Abattoir. The total budget requirements for this department is $1,790,303 for 1954 as compared to $1,792,755 for 1953, or a decrease of a little over $2,000. This again is in spite of the general salary increase which would account for some $50,000 in increased operating costs. Counterbalancing this is a $55,000 reduction in other expenses at Brackenridge, a $25,000 reduction in capital outlay at Brackenridge, and a $19,000 decrease in other expenses and capital outlay at the Abattoir. Due to the construction that will be carried on at Brackenridge during 1954, it is estimated that additional personnel will be required. This is due to the inconvenience that will be caused by the construction. However, the overall budget for the hospital and the TB unit will in fact be decreased over that of 1953. The slaughter of animals at our Abattoir has more than doubled during the year 1953, necessitating an increase in personnel over what was contemplated at the time the 1953 budget was presented. An additional cooker was also bought during 1953 at a cost of some $11,000. While other fees and charges have increased all along the line, killing charges at our Abattoir have not been changed since July 1, 1946. The present CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 1013 1013 xi rates are the lowest in this area and have been justifiable only because in the past, particularly during the war, the City sold tallow for as much as 25 and 26$ per pound. That price per pound is now 3 1/2 to 4 per pound, and with the increasing use of detergents by soap manufacturers, it is believed the higher prices will never return. Thus, the present rates for slaughtering have been subsidized by profits from sale of tallow. This condition needs to be remedied, and a study of these charges reveals that the charges should be increased about 50$ per animal in order that the plant may break even. The operating deficiency at the abattoir, considering depreciation of $12,000 a year (a very minimum figure) and approximately $20,000 of water and light used, is around $30,000. The proposed slaughtering charges which will be presented later to the City Council will just offset that deficit and enable the Abattoir to pay its own way. Recreation (pp. 1202156) The Recreation Department budget for 1954 is $363, 118 as compared to an estimated $356, 410 for 1953. This increase is due largely to the increase in salaries allowed during 1953 and the addition of two play ground leaders and 8 junior pool lifeguards at the new pools that will be built during the year, The new personnel will mean an addition of some $5,000 to the operating cost of the Department. This increase and the approximate $10,000 general salary increase has in part been compensated by the reduction in capital outlay from $15,200 in 1953 to $7,922 in the coming year. CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 1014 1014 xii The capital improvements that will be met from current funds will consist in the main of some equipment repair and replacement of motored equipment such as gang mowers, a small Fordson Tractor, diving boards, strainers for the filters, and a public address system. For the most part, the improvements that will be carried out at the playgrounds will be obtained from recreation bond money. A more detailed description of this program will be given under Recreation Improvements Obligation Bonds. Libraries (pp. 157-163) The proposed budget for the operation of the library of the City of Austin in 1954 is $123, 187. This is an increase of approximately $6,500. The increase is occasioned primarily by the general increase in salaries to Library personnel that was made in the middle of this year, 1953. It is planned to provide a second Bookmobile to improve the circulation over the City and County for the Library. This Bookmobile will be provided from bond money. However, there has been included in the personal services approximately $2,700 for six months' operation of the second Bookmobile. Clearing Accounts (pp. 164176) The Clearing Accounts include such items as the care and maintenance of buildings and grounds, office supply, print shop, auto repair shop, communications division and tabulating division. With the exception of the care and maintenance of buildings and grounds, the entire charges of these other sections CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 1015 1015 xiii are distributed to the departments concerned. Page 16 of the attached sheets shows the budget of the Buildings and Grounds division. Page 30 of the attachments show the other clearing accounts. As mentioned, the accounts on page 30 are each cleared out to other budgetary departments. For example, the Auto Repair Shop is charged against the budget of each department for which it does work. The Tabulating Division is charged out in proportion to the amount used to the Water and Light office, to Accounting, and to the Tax Office. UTILITY FUND (pp. 177-) Revenues (pp. 178-179) It is estimated that utility revenue for 1954 will be $7,732,000. It is anticipated that $6,035,000 of this revenue will accrue in the first nine months and $1,697,000 in the last three months of the calendar year. This is an increase of $688,000 over that of 1953.

Particularly has this been true on our electric utility system, where not only population increases call for additional services, but more and more use of electrical applicances, particularly air-conditioners, demand that we improve and extend the electric system. It is anticipated that we will generate or produce 294,000,000 KWH of electricity for 1954, with a demand of approximately 69,000. This compares with 264,000,000 anticipated for 1953, with a demand already established of 63,000 KW. This gives us some real concern inasmuch as the firm capacity of our Power Plant is only 56,500 KW, including 12,500 KW contract for power with the LCRA. If something should happen to one of our new 20,000 KW machines, we would be in a very sad condition to furnish service to our customers. Should this happen, we would be very desperately forced to ration our electric power over the City. This would be a most unpleasant experience. Not only would it be unpleasant, but it would vitally affect our an- ticipated revenues to be derived from the Electric Department. We, therefore, want to emphasize the very definite need of the City of Austin proceeding with further power plant installations, in order to have adequate generating equipment to take on the demand of a growing city. A brochure has been prepared setting forth a ten year forecast of the needs for the water, electric and sewer utilities in the City of Austin The budget contemplates $2,517, 329 as total operating and maintenance : costs of the utilities systems, as compared to $2,430,951 anticipated in 1953. CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS XV 10101.7 This is an increase of only $87,000 for 1954 over 1953. Of this, $29,000 is increased fuel cost for the Power Plant due to the increased demands. The new purification plant at Mount Bonnell will be placed in operation about April. and, consequently, will necessitate additional personnel to staff that plant. That accounts for the increase of some $56,000 in the water utility operations, which includes the wage increase made in 1953. A slight reduction is shown in the operation of the sewer utilities. It is thought that this can be accomplished without any difficulties. It is anticipated that $250,000 will be refunded to Subdivision developers in 1954. With the new Subdivision regulations and new fiscal policy per- taining to refund on subdivisions, this refund should prove itself less burdensome to the future needs of the utility division.

No revenue or tax bonds are available for electric or water improvements. These funds have been entirely expended during the year 1953. The dilemma that we find ourselves in is the fact that we have encumbrances on the completion of the new water plant at Mt. Bonnell in the amount of $1,175,000 that must be carried on in 1954. Likewise, a 42 inch concretesteel water pipe line must be built from the new plant to the water distribution system in the amount of $140,000. This job has been contracted for. There also remains the necessity of erecting an electric line of 69 KV capacity from the Tom Miller Dam to the Water Plant and erecting a substation of 5,000 KW capacity there. It is estimated that the cost of this particular part would be $227,640. Thus, it is seen that $1, 542, 640 of the amount available must be pledged as necessary for the completion of the water plant. It is readily seen that only $293,487 remains to take care of the many other extensions that need to be made to the water and electric system. As shown in the chart, this amount is $2,518,953 short of the urgent needs of the two systems. This deficit may be seen in the following tabulation of requested and urgently needed improvements: Electrical System Improvements The following projects are listed in order of their priority necessary to maintain minimum service and to provide the revenue as estimated: 1. Lakeshore Substation and 69 KV line from Miller Dam to subsite. This project is to serve the new filter plant with power. (Listed above) 2. Power Plant 69 KV Power Substation. This is required to serve 69 KV power to Lakeshore Substation for the Filter Plant. $ 227,640 221,100 10201020 CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS xviii 3. Regular Construction. This project includes serving 1800 customers, 4 KV primary line conversion to 12.5 KV and transformer "change- outs", and line replacements to correct serious overload. 4. Hospital Substation project is a 3000 KVA substation to relieve overloaded adjacent substations and distribution lines. 5. West Substation and Kerbey Substation project is to increase their capacities by 3500 and 1500 KVA respectively to relieve the overloaded substation condition. 6. Cardinal Lane Substation project is to relieve overload conditions in southwest Austin and is essential to the Bergstrom project and to make the transformers available for West and Kerbey Substations. This move is required in order to release the 69 KV line and South 5th Street now being operated at 12.5 KV so that Bergstrom Field Substation can be served by the same 69 KV line. 7. Bergstrom Substation is required to serve the increased contract demand of Bergstrom Air Force Base and to relieve overload on adjacent substations.

This condition indicates a lack of large mains to carry water to areas where it is needed. These areas have been carefully studied and the following schedule is the top priority part of the capital improvements needed to correct the deficiency, and at the same time, build the distribution in accordance with long range plans for the development of the city. The first item on the list has already been contracted and construction will start January 1, 1954.

The $293,487 that now remains will not even take care of the miscellaneous extensions that are necessary to just make the service connections, meters, etc., for both systems for new customers. It is anticipated to take care of this requirement alone would require between $800,000 and $900,000 for the water and electric systems. It is, therefore, most urgent that some plan or procedure be found whereby these utility installations can be financed and carried out as they are urgently necessary. What plan the Council may find advisable, whether by tax bonds or revenue bonds, or both the point that we want to make is that it is urgently necessary that a plan of action be determined at a very early date. PROPOSED BOND FUND IMPROVEMENTS (pp. 210-211) There is now available in our Special Bond Funds a total balance to be carried forward into 1954 of $1,458,824. These are distributed as follows: CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS :.. xxi Airport $ 15,000 Fire Station 27,814 Hospital Improvement 500,212 Parks, Playground & Recreation 123,393 Public Library 60,000 Sanitary Sewer 444,000 Street Improvements 197,000 Revenue Bonds for Sanitary Sewer 91,405 1023 1023 Some of these funds (example: Hospital) are already encumbered and will be used during 1954. In addition, thereto, we recommend for consideration of the City Council that $2,393,000 of additional obligation bonds be sold during 1954. These will be as follows: Proposed Bond Sale 1954 Hospital Improvements $ 1,150,000 Parks, Playground & Recreation 243.000 218,000 (Approved Dec 22, 1953) Sanitary Sewer 500,000 Street Improvements 525,000 TOTAL $ 2, 443,000 $2,393,000- Hospital Improvement Bonds Obligation Bonds Brackenridge Hospital construction contracts have been approved by the U.S. Public Health Service and the contracts are now being formally prepared. Construction will be under way by December 15. CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 10241024 xxii It is anticipated that the construction cost during the year 1954 will approximate 1 1/2 million dollars, so it will therefore be necessary that we sell $1,150,000 of the remaining authorized bonds in 1954. We will receive assistance from the U. S. Government on a grant for the hospital construction. How fast or how soon this may become available, we do not know. So, for that reason, we urge that these bonds be sold in the Spring. It is estimated that the total cost of construction and furnishings will approximate $3,000,000. As you are aware, we will receive a total grant of 1 1/2 million dollars from the U. S. Government for this hospital program. Library Improvement Bonds Obligation Bonds $100,000 of Library bonds was sold in early 1953. $40,000 of these monies has been used in installing an air conditioning system in the Main Library, and in the Carver Branch Library. It is proposed that part of this remaining money be used in redecorating and repairing the Main Library. This has not been done since it was built, and it is badly in need of such work. It is recommended that a portion of these monies be used as follows: Redecorating and Repairing Main Library $20,000 Bookmobile 7,000 Book Stock for Bookmobile 10,000 Installation of 4th floor book stack 11,000 Total expenditure $48,000 CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 1021025 xxiii Fire Station Improvement Bonds Obligation Bonds At the present time we have $27,814 remaining in this fund that are unexpended. It is recommended that $15,000 of these funds be used to con- struct quarters for the fire prevention personnel. They are now housed in inadequate quarters at the 19th street fire station. These quarters are inadequate for the public to meet with our fire inspectors and it is therefore, recommended that we prepare quarters at the Police and Courts Building in the unimproved northeast wing. It is estimated that this can be accomplished with $15,000. Parks, Playgrounds & Recreation Obligation Bonds Approximately $123, 393 will be carried forward into 1954 of the bonds that were sold during 1953. Negotiations have been going forward on additional sites and improvements so that these monies will be encumbered $243,000 (See Ninutes of and spent during 1954. It has been recommended that $218,000 additional 1953) Dec. bonds be sold in order that money may be made available for further improvements, and purchase of additional sites for recreation and parks. The general breakdown of the planned expenditures are as follows: 1.

It is recommended that the remaining part of $525,000 of street improvement bonds be sold in the Spring. With the sale of these bonds, $722,000 will then be available for street improvement in the City.

These monies are, however, encumbered with contracts that are now underway. It is recommended that the $500,000 remaining of this issue of Sanitary Sewer bonds be sold in the Spring. This will provide a total of $944, 000 that will be available for Sanitary Sewer Improvement program. As we have already stated, part of this is already encumbered and will be completed during the year 1954. The following Sanitary Sewer projects are recommended: Balance of Enix Contract Main 42" and 48" - Shoal Creek - Colorado River Canterbury to $190,000 40,000 Canterbury Street Lift Pump Station 82,000 Shoal Creek Pump Station Outfall Main-Canterbury to Treatment Plant 200,000 Boggy Creek Main - 18" Tillery to Old Manor Road 105,000 - Shoal Creek - 30" West 1st to Gast Ave 109,000 South Congress Cumberland South to Railroad Track 31,000 Sewer Connections 94,000 Miscellaneous Laterals 93,000 $944,000 REVENUE BONDS Sewage Treatment Plant It is estimated that approximately $91,405 will be carried forward into 1954 as a residue of the Revenue Bonds for this project. These monies will CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 10301030 xxviii be used during 1954 to install sludge thickening equipment and sludge disposal equipment at the Sewer plant. It is estimated that this will cost approximately $89,927. With this project completed in 1954, no further bonds will remain of the old revenue issue. ANALYSIS OF AD VALOREM TAX LEVY (pp. 7-7b) It is noted that the tax valuation for 1952 for taxes collected during 1953 was $209,942,000. The rates were $.89 for the general fund, $1.02 for the school fund, making a total of $2.83. It is estimated that we will collect approximately 90.71 % of the current taxes during the year. This represents $5,389, 534 for all funds. We do want to point out the reasonable success of the delinquent tax program. A total of $294,916 of delinquent taxes are anticipated to be collected during 1953. This is 19.2% of the outstanding delinquent taxes. It is anticipated that the assessed valuations will approximate $220,634,000 for 1953, collectable in 1954. The rates established were $.89 for the General Fund, $1.00 for the School Fund, $1. 12 for the Sinking Fund, making a total tax rate of $3.01 per hundred dollars of assessed values. With the installation of IBM machines and an aggressive collection program, it is anticipated that we will collect 95% of our current roll. This will approximate $6, 309, 029 for all funds. Of this amount, $1,865, 461 will be available to the General Fund, $2,096, 023 to the schools and $2,347,545 to the Interest and Sinking Fund. 1031 031 CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS xxix An aggressive program of delinquent tax collections will be continued during 1954. In 1953, a considerable amount of time was taken on filing of suits on personal properties. During 1954, real property will be brought into focus and it is hoped that considerable progress can be made in the collection of delinquent taxes. It is estimated that we will collect $448,000 of delinquent taxes in 1954. This is an ambitious program, but it is our feeling that it can be accomplished. This will than give $154, 114 to the general fund, $170,021 to the schools and $124, 115 to the Interest and Sinking Fund. This represents a 25% collection of the delinquent tax roll. During the year 1954, the reappraisal program of equalization will be completed, and will be submitted to the Equalization Board about the middle of the year. This has taken considerable time, but it is our feeling that the delay that was made was well justified in a program of further checking of the results. You will recall that this program was begun, not to reappraise from the standpoint of raising valuations, but rather to equalize values as best that could be done. INTEREST AND SINKING FUND (p. 212) The total resources for the Interest and Sinking Fund for 1954 total approximately $3, 465, 221. The total disbursements during the year will be $2,141,325. This will leave a balance in the Interest and Sinking Fund as of December 31, 1954 of $1,323,896. However, it must be anticipated that $800, 710 of bond requirements must be paid on January 1, 1955. Thus, it is seen that there would be a balance of $523, 186 in the Interest and Sinking Fund, January 1, 1955. 1032 1032 CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS XXX GENERAL I was asked by the Council during the summer to submit to you a 40 hour week program for City employees. In view of the revenue situation which now exists, I do not feel that it would be proper to submit any program pertaining to a 40 hour week at this time. What action in reference to this can be taken in the future will depend on what the Council in their wise judgment may determine. Needless to say, this budget does not contemplate any general salary increase, only those changes as are contemplated in the Salary Evaluation Program, established by the Council. Again, I would like to express my appreciation at this time to all of the employees who have worked so diligently for the benefit of the City of Austin this last year. Especially to those who have given so unselfishly of their time. The department heads have conscientiously striven to prepare realistic budgets to meet the needs of the City of Austin. It has been my unpleasant duty to prune to the extent it really hurts. It is unfortunate that only our minimum needs can be met at this time. May I express to each member of the Council my sincere thanks and appreciation for their cooperation. Sincerely yours, Wakeb W. E.
