The Council recessed at 12:40 until 2:00 Ρ.Μ. RECESSED MEETING CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 2:00 P.M. At 2:00 P.M. the Council resumed its business. It was announced that this meeting was called for the purpose of meeting with the Planning Commission to discuss the thoroughfare plan. Present were MR. DAVID BARROW, Chairman; MR. MARVIN BRASWELL, MR. S. P. KINSER, members of the Planning Commission. Present also were MR. NELSON PUETT and his Attorney MR. TOM GEE; and MR. TOM BRADFIELD. MR. BARROW discussed the Planning Commission recommendation on the thoroughfare plan listing the minimum widths of a primary thoroughfare at 120'; secondary thoroughfare at 90'; collector street at 80'; and residential street at 50'. He said the Commission could still ask for wider streets where necessary. He said the Plan Commission did not make specific recommendation on paving widths, as those were set by the Public Works Department. Mr. Barrow stated that some of the subdividers thought the width of paving on residential streets should be only 26' in most cases, but the Commission did not agree on that. He explained the recommendation in that the subdivi- der would donate a certain amount of right-of-way; but in any case where he could show the Commission and the Council that the excess right-of-way would not serve his subdivision and was not necessary, that the City would pay him for this excess amount based on the cost of the raw land at the time. MR. TOM BRADFIELD, representing the Austin Home Builders and Austin Real Estate Board, passed out a letter dated March 31, 1960, setting out their suggested amendments, additions and suggestions, and stated his group preferred to stay with the present ordinance; that collector streets would be 60' and no more; that paving widths of V.A. and F.H.A. neighborhoods would be proper at 26'. The Council discussed the recommendations. Councilman Palmer suggested setting aside a nominal amount to try this out and see if it were beneficial; if not, amend the policy later on. City Manager discussed traffic arteries from the subdivisions to other sections of the city. The City Attorney discussed the policy as adopted. Councilman Bechtol suggested that a big hearing be set on this two weeks from this date, and that publicity be given that this is one of the first steps in the Austin plan. After more discussion, Councilman Bechtol moved that a hearing be set for two weeks hence at 2:00 P.M. (April 14) for the final adoption of a thoroughfare standard as submitted and amended by the Planning Commission; and also for the adoption of a policy for right-of-way acquisition for street purposes.
