No action of any kind was taken by the Council. CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 153 153 The Mayor announced that the ordinance fixing the telephone rates would not be brought up at this meeting as Councilman Thompson was not present. MR, JULIUS SHUTZE, JR., Chairman Recreation Committee, Executive Committee A. N. McCallum Senior-Junior High, P.T.A., presented statement of favoring the proposed playground in Northwest Austin being considered by the Council. The Mayor presented a petition signed by 55 citizens with 71 children living in Allendale, expressing approval of the park-site and asking the Council to act upon it. Another petition was submitted by the Mayor with 26 names urging the Council to establish a public park out of excess acreage in the Austin Memorial Cemetery tract. MR. HUFF BAINS submitted a petition with over 400 names asking the Council to take immediate action in establishing a park in the section of the Austin Memorial Cemetery tract. MR. GENE ALVIS asked the Council to act on this matter, as it was felt the Council had all the facts at hand and that it felt that the future of Austin would best be served by this dedication. The Mayor filed 25 communications he received from citizens in various parts of the City who were in opposition. MRS. C. B. LYNN speaking in opposition to any dedication, referred to early instruments and minutes on file to show that it was the intent of the City Council that this land would be used for cemetery purposes. She read from the Minutes of March 13, 1941. She read a letter from Mr. Oswald Wolf opposing this move, and she quoted Mr. Simon Gillis that it was the intent of the Council that all of the Austin Memorial Park Cemetery grounds be used as a cemetery. MR. WALTER BARNS submitted figures to show that the cemetery was not scheduled to serve the needs for too many years according to' population. He stated that MR. GEORGE SHEPHERD who had estimated the cemetery would last 298 years was Treasurer of the Memorial Hill Cemetery, which is a private enterprise. MRS. T. W. LACKIE, 2011 Alguna Road, spoke in opposition to the recreation area in the cemetery area, and asked the City to consider the 11 acres already dedicated for park area in Highland Park West. MR. ROY THOMAS, speaking on need for orderly development in the cemetery to reduce taxes for perpetual care, asked that the remaining 67 acres be developed and sold as cemetery lots, and a large portion be set aside for a trust fund for perpetual care to relieve the tax burden in this particular instance. He noted an ordinance passed February 17, 1955, to provide for enlargement of Evergreen Cemetery. The Mayor filed 25 letters opposing the dedication of land for park purposes. in this area. MRS. C. E. ALVIS spoke in favor of dedicating the land for park purposes, as did MR. WALTER RICTOR. MR. AL CAPLAN, Insurance business, asked which was more important--thousands of living children, or a handful of dead people. MR. JOHN CHERNOSKY, who does private work in the cemetery, was opposed to a park so near by. Councilman Pearson outlined the development of the proposal for the past two years. The Park Board was trying to add to the Park by putting a buffer zone to protect the cemetery. He wanted to have a conference with the Park and Recreation Board and reevaluate their recommendation and see what else is available in that neighborhood and what could be done. He wanted a park in the neighborhood somewhere, and it might be possible to acquire some elsewhere, and he believed the Park Board, having heard the story from all sides, could take the facts and try to come up with the answer that will be best for all concerned. Councilman Long believed it would be a mistake to put a park in that area, as it would forever ruin the recreation program throughout the city, as there would be hundreds of people that would never again vote any kind of bonds for support for the Recreation Department, if this park were put in, because of the strong feeling and emotion. She wanted the people to have a playground or park, but right now there was no money to develop one CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 154 154 before next year; but before October some land should be secured, and people should be looking around in the area for another location. Councilman White was for a park somewhere in the area; and even if one were dedicated, there is no money in the Budget to do anything with; but he did want a park in northwest Austin, and he would go all the way for a park. Councilman Long had suggested sending this to the Plan Commission. Councilman Pearson thought since this had just been under discussion such a short time, even though it had been in the planning for some time, and since so many had been heard on both sides, he believed no one would want an immediate vote on it this morning. He thought it should go to the Plan Commission and a report back in a short time. He also wanted the Park and Recreation Board to be called in for a meeting with the Council. After more discussion, Councilman Long moved that this be sent to the Plan Commission for a study, evaluation and report back to the City Council within six weeks (this particular problem of the park and the cemetery). The motion, seconded by Councilman White, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Long, Pearson, White, Mayor McAden Noes: None Absent: Councilman Thompson (All petitions on file in City Clerk's Office under RECREATION - Parks) LT. W. B. SCRINGEOUR appeared asking that the City repair Cameron Road, and asking for bus service in the new development, Delwood 4. Councilman Long stated the bus company limped along and did not have good service. They did have a franchise, and the City was supposed to see that they gave adequate service. They would not expand into the new areas until the area was completely developed. She suggested he take a petition that they could get 50-60 people to ride the bus every day, that the Company might expand out there. The City Manager stated this was a new subdivision that is just now being developed, and he knew of no plans at this time to repair the Cameron Road. Councilman Pearson stated he would be happy to look into the bus situation for him and let him know. Lt. Scringeour lived at 1613 Corona. Councilman Long inquired about the street lights in this area. The City Manager explained that he knew of no plans for street lights in this area, as there were areas all over town that did not have street lights. Lt. Scringeour stated this development would appreciate a little work here and there, as it would make the people feel that their taxes were being used for them. MRS. DREXEL TURNER, Travis CountyHumane Society, wanted to give this Society's view to the Council for consideration if it submitted anything to the voters. They were neutral on a law for dogs, but were in favor of raising the standards of pet-owners, in favor of vaccinations and licensing of all dogs; and were in favor of confining dogs to their own yards, but she did want the voters to be aware that there were no adequate housing and facilities to care for the influx of animals that would have to be cared for at the shelter. They were concerned about the human care of the dogs that would be picked up if not confined. The Mayor asked if she thought stronger enforcement of the ordinance would help. She stated Captain Forrester was doing a wonderful job of enforcing the ordinance even with inadequate facilities. Her interest was to bring before the Council that they did not have adequate housing facilities even if the ordinance were enforced to its fullest. MR. W. P. ROSS, 1601 Holly, stated the dog catcher had told him there was only one, and he could not take care of all the cases himself. Councilman Long stated the Police Department had fallen down, as the head of the Police Department had not recommended to the Council its need for funds to take care of the dog situation; nor had a recommendation CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 155 155 come from the City Manager's office; and if they are short handed and not doing the job, it was because they had not gotten behind it and done something about it. She believed a law would have to be enforced if it were worth anything, and thought the men ought to be given certain authority. Mr. Ross stated the man said he could not go into a yard without the owner's permission to capture a dog. The City Manager stated there had been recommendations from the Police Department year in and year out, but due to inadequacy of funds, the budget had to be cut. Councilman White suggested putting on two more men to enforce the ordinance and pay them enough to live on, and he believed they could do a lot of good. The City Manager submitted a summary of the cost involved of the recommendation made last week. Councilman Long thought if a fee of $2.00 were charged, then there would be $60,000 to put back into that program each year; but in submitting this, it would not be what kind of ordinance but whether you were going to put the dogs on a leash or let them run loose. Councilman Pearson wanted the people to vote on the proposition and strenghten the ordinance on the results of the vote. The City Attorney brought up that the license year began April 1, and the present ordinance does not cover the licensing age of the dogs. After discussion, Councilman Long moved that the City Manager be asked to bring in an ordinance setting up the amount in the budget for the program as he has outlined (For the two dog wardens and fees for each dog and equipment). The motion, seconded by Councilman White, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Long, White, Mayor McAden Noes: Councilman Pearson Absent: Councilman Thompson Councilman Pearson voting against it as he was not familiar enough with this right as this time--he believed they were getting the cart before the horse. Councilman Long believed there was an immediate need right now, putting on an active program of getting the dogs vaccinated. Discussion of submitting the proposition on the dogs in the election was held. Councilman Long moved that the question of keeping the dogs under restraintor letting them run loose be submitted to the people on April 2nd. The motion, seconded by Councilman White, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Noes: Councilmen Long, Pearson, White Mayor McAden Absent: Councilman Thompson MRS. G. W. BELL, 800 Block Pressler, inquired about the report on widening Pressler. The City Manager had the recommendation of the Director of Public Works, which included that of the Traffic Engineer. Councilman Long moved that the recommendation of the Public Works Department be accepted and that they be asked to go ahead on it and bring back a report on the cost of it as soon as possible.

The City Manager reported on the paving situation, in that the funds were inadequate, and even though there was some left over that could be 1 157 157 CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS = diverted to paving, the City was confronted with the possibility that there might be some help from the Legislature, and the City would need some of that money to pay the city's cost.
