Seaholm, City Manager; W. T. Williams, Jr., City Attorney; C. G. Levander, Director of Public Works. Invocation was delivered by REVEREND JOHN BARCLAY, Central Christian Church. Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag. Councilman Pearson moved that the minutes of the previous meeting be approved with the correction noted by Councilman Long to correct the name of the compy to "Gibson Products Company". The motion, seconded by councilman White, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Long, Pearson, Thompson, White, Mayor McAden Noes: None MR. HARRY POLLARD represented the owners of the tract of land at the end of the alley between San Gabriel and Leon Streets in the 2200 block, who wanted the Council to rescind its action in passing an ordinance vacating this alley. He believed had the Council acted upon a full understanding of all the facts and determined on the basis of those facts that for the benefit of the public generally that the alley should have been closed, then the ordinance would have been valid, but the Council was not aware of all the facts, as at least two members had said that they would not have voted to pass the ordinance had they known that a property owner abutting on that alley was supposed to have a need for it, and that the ordinance is void because the Council acted upon a mistaken conception of fact. He did not believe the alley had been vacated because of any health hazards or any danger to the public. MR. T.E. O'QUINN represented the property owners abutting the alley, stated his position was that CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 634 636 the ordinance was not void; and if repealed, the property owner's property rights would have been taken from them. The City Attorney gave his opinion on the matter stating he did not believe the ordinance was void; the ordinance was passed in public interest; a dead end alley served no useful public purpose; the closing of an alley has the effect of affecting the public interest and not any private rights of the abutting owners; that he would not pass on any question of any private rights the owner at the end of the alley had, as the ordinance passed by the Council would not destroy that right if it existed. It was his view that because the private rights had not been affected in any way, the ordinance was valid; if it were void, the private rights still had not been affected; and to rescind the Council action, might have the effect to subject the city to damages, and the Council might leave the ordinance as it now stands and not rescind it. Councilman Thompson suggested that the Fraternity try to develop their plans to enter from the street side and use their property for their drive. Councilman suggested that the Fraternity dedicate an alley through their property and get Mr. Murchison to dedicate an alley through his property to the street. She suggested an unpleasant situation developing if there wer no alley and the Fraternity had to put their garbage out in front on Leon Street. After more discussion, and after MR. SOL SMITH, representing the Fraternity, had stated the Fraternity would dedicate 16' for alley provided it went all the way through if necessary, the Mayor advised the group to see if they could work this out with Mr. Murchison and report back to the Council in two weeks. (August 19th) MR. O'QUINN stated the property rights acquired by MR. CLARK, MR.SCHOOLFIELD, and MRS. OWERS were still there, and he was not in a position to commit their surrendering those. Pursuant to published notice thereof the Council publicly heard the following zoning application: CEN-TEX CONCRETE PIPE COMPANY 901-921 Koermer Drive & 5409-13 & 5501-07 Bolm Rd. From "A" to "DL 6 RECOMMENDED by the Plan Commis- sion MR. MORGAN HUNTER represented the applicants, outlining the logical expansion of the industrial area. He submitted a letter, withdrawing the north 130' of the tract along Bolm Road, leaving it "A" at the present time; and out of this 130', donating 10' strip for widening Bolm Road. Also the applicant would donate 20 strip along the west side of the tract, conditioned on the city's constructing a street from Airport Blvd. to this tract and then to Bolm Road. Councilman White did not want to obligate the City for this much. MR. D. L. PLATT and MR. STERNBERG opposed the zoning, on the grounds there would be much dust, mosquitoes from the pipe, weeds, etc., and that the industrial zoning would ruin their place to live. MRS. WILLIAM ANDERSON did not think the planting would help much, as they might not keep it clean. Councilman Long explained a meeting she had with MR. MORGAN, and the altering of the original application as set out by MR. HUNTER. She believed the opening of the street would be a big help to the residents out there, enabling them to get water and gas, but she thought the building of the road as outlined would be difficult. MR. STERNBERG and MR. PLATT were not interested in the opening of this street, as it would mean much more traffic, and they were satisfied as it was now. Councilman Pearson believed that this little lane now, permitting only one water meter to the group was mest undesirable; and as far as the planting, he believed it would be kept up satisfactorily. Councilman White stated Mr. Morgan had assured him this area would be graveled and there would be no weeds. After more discussion, the Council deferred action until the following week. CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 631 637 MR. J. O. MUSIC, PresidentRidgetop Civic Club, made a statement for record that the members of the Ridgetop Civic Club objected strenously to the yearly increase of taxes. He requested the presence of the Mayor and other Council members and the City Manager at ameeting at 8:00 P.M., August 9, 1954, to constitute a forum to answer the questions of the citizen-taxpayers. MR. PAUL HORNBERGER appeared before the Council requesting that it rescind its action in leaving the name of ROGGE LANE as such, and changing it back to P. W. SEIDERS ROAD as it has been in the County for many years. After explaining that the subdivision was accepted and recorded with this street named ROGGE LANE, and that only the part that was in the city limits was affected, Councilman Long moved that the Council uphold its action of July 15th continuing the name of ROGGE LANE. The motion, seconded by Councilman Pearson, carried by the following vote: adoption: (RESOLUTION) Ayes: Councilman Long, Pearson, Thompson, White, Mayor McAden Noes: None Councilman Thompson offered the following resolution and moved its WHEREAS, T.H.

CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 643 643 Councilman Long brought up the ordinance initiated by the fire department for consideration now rather than waiting 30 days in order to plan for the City Manager and the city in case it was decided to give the 63 hour-week for the firemen and put into operation the 40-hour week. She asked the City Attorney to explain just what is contained in the ordinance. The City Attorney listed the nine changes that the ordinance made. In discussion, MR. COFER stated there was some doubt if an initiative ordinance could be amended; and if there were something not satisfactory and that these men did not think was vital, the Council could adopt its own ordinance, and they would withdraw their petition. In discussing this ordinance with reference to setting a minimum wage, Mr. Cofer felt that the minimum wage was very vital to the ordinance, and he did not feel that if the hours were reduced that the administrative officer should have the power to reduce the wages accordingly. Councilman Thompson asked if he did not trust the administrative department not to do that. Mr. Cofer stated the experience in the past with reference to firemen's pay had been such as not to encourage leaving it to the Administration. Councilman Thompson noted that since this Council had come in, the firemen had been given a $20.00 a month increase whereas others had been given $10.00 After discussing other points in the ordinance, Councilman Long moved that the Council adopt the ordinance initiated by the firemen effective October 1st. Councilman White seconded the motion with the statement that if the City Attorney was not entirely satisfied with the wording that he and Mr. Cofer get together and work it out. In discussion Councilman Long stated the reason she was bringing this before the Council now was that the City Manager and heads of departments were studying the budget to be adopted by October 1st; and if they waited until October 1st, they would want to know where the money was coming from. Councilman White was for saving the expense of this election which would run about $3,000. Councilman Pearson moved that the motion be tabled. The motion, seconded by Councilman Thompson, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Pearson, Thompson, Mayor McAden Noes: Councilmen Long, White The Mayor stated they had 60 days from July 22nd to look this over. Councilman Long then moved that the Election be called for September 18th. Councilman White seconded the motion. In discussion, Councilman Pearson stated they had just been given this memorandum, and he thought Councilman Long was being very unfair with the other Council members in insisting on a vote. He had stated before that whatever he voted on, he wanted it to be fair with every employee working for the city. The Council had discussed before that it was going to consider various working conditions before it adopted the budget for 1955 and it was his intention to still do so. Councilman Long said she did not intend to be unfair, but after the money was appropriated, then they would want to know where it was coming from, and then there was the suggestion to increase the water rates or the electric rates or the tax rate to get this money, and the firemen would have be bear the burden of an increase just because they got 63 hours a week. She believed the 40 hour week should be put into operation, and that it should be done before the budget is adopted. Councilman White had been for this 40-hour week for a long time, but it never did develop. Councilman Pearson asked Councilman Long if she preferred to wait until they had had an opportunity to studythis or did she prefer calling an election; and if she did not think it would be wise for the Council to discuss this rather than taking a vote. She replied if the Council intended to put the 63-40 hour a week in she was not in favor of calling an election. She said the Council had 30 days--and stated if they had 30 days, they would stall 30 days; if they had sixty days, they would stall sixty days. If the budget comes up CITY OF AUSTIN. TEXAS 644 644 and is adopted and the plans already made, it would be too late. Councilman Thompson stated that the matter of hours and wages of people who work for the city was a serious matter from several standpoints--the people have to make a living in face of the cost of living, and the people responsible, such as the Council, has to make decisions that bear directly on the lives of the people who work; and anyone sitting in this position with a human heart cannot help but feel that everybody should have a good break. Secondly, the administration of the city's business is concerned in this matter because in order to build and maintain an efficient organization for the city, this administration has to be able and kept in position to compete in the labor market and one of the elements of being able to compete is hours of work and rates of pay. The City Council has the responsibility of keeping the administration in a position to maintain an efficient organization. This Council is also faced with the responsibility of seeing that the total budget expenditures of this city do not get out of line and impose an unnecessary burden upon the tax payers. He stated in the last few days in discussion of these matters with the City Manager and others, he felt that it might be the essence of good judgement and prudent management to go ahead and shorten the hours of labor in the city which would in effect raise hourly wages. He had voted already to raise the pay of the city employees five percent across the board and $20.00 a piece per month for the firemen and policemen. This Council has raised the wages of the city employees, and he did not know why Mrs. Long would imply that the rest of the Council was insensitive to the problems of the city employees; and it was his opinion and he wanted it for the record that not only Mrs. Long and Mr. White, but also Mr. Pearson, Mayor McAden and he were quite sensitive to the problems of the people that work for the city. He was also sensitive to the taxpayers and the problem of the home owners that have to pay their bills. He had made some investigation of the working conditions of the city employees in the fire department; and if what is done in other cities is a reasonable guide and rule to go by in determining what should be done here, then statistics as to what is being done in other cities should be taken into consideration. Hewas confident that this whole City Council would come to a decision to dispose of this problem in plenty of time to either call an election or vote an ordinance; but right at the moment he was not ready to say. He did not believe that the rights and privileges of the firemen were being denied in anyway if the Council delayed this, and he asked Mrs. Long to withdraw her motion, until the Council had time to properly consider this and come to a decision. Councilman Long stated that 12,000 people had signed the petition. After more discussion, Councilman Long stated she would not withdraw her motion, because the Council would have 30 days between now and then, because that election does not necessarily have to be held, as they could rescind this action. The City Attorney explained the steps necessary to be taken when an election was called. Councilman Thompson moved that the motion be tabled. The motion, seconded by Councilman Pearson, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Pearson, Thompson, Mayor McAden Noes: Councilmen Long, White Councilman Pearson believed within two weeks the Council could get together in a meeting. MR. H. L. CRISWELL, Austin Trades Council, asked for permission to hold the regular Labor Day Parade, September 6th. Councilman Long moved that this request be granted, details to be worked out with the City Manager as usual. The motion, seconded by Councilman Thompson, carried by the following vote: CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS Ayes: Councilmen Long, Pearson, Thompson, White, Mayor McAden Noes: None 645 645 week.
