Although I am not here to support any particular technical recommendation of any group, I believe some of the information from my study might be helpful to the Council. - CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS "Your attention is invited to some comparative figures for the past 10 years: 1949 $126,625,979 1959 $253,797,424 $ 4,473,180 Bank Deposits Postal Receipts Water Connections $ 1,884,007 31,749 Electric Connections Gas Connections Telephone Connections Building Permits 37,349 30,136 48,834 Land Area 20,553A $ 30,327,116 50,187 58,985 49,000 88,716 $ 55,990,800 30,678A. "These are all due to an expanding economy in our expanding city. A look at population figures back to 1839--when Austin was chartered with a population of 856--reveal that Austin is a city destined for growth. It is everyone's job to see that this growth is handled properly and that we as the Capital City of Texas expand our facilities to serve the state that makes us great. "This Council and others have certainly met their responsibility in formulating and administrating proper subdivision ordinances. In considering any revision of such ordinances, proper control of standards must be maintained without restricting subdividing activity. Perhaps it is well to review the value of new subdivision and construction to Austin. "In 1958, city building permits show that approximately $32,000,000 was spent for non-commercial construction (living units). In addition, sales in the lumber, building and hardware field were $16,652,000 in 1958 (SM). Construction employment as of January 1, 1959 in Austin was 5,670 people (TEC). 3,995 people (TEC) were employed in such allied fields as banking, finance and real estate. mates would indicate that subdividing, residential construction and allied businesses constitute a $64,000,000 industry in Austin annually. This is equal to 20% of the total annual effective buying income in our city. Esti"Just recently an Austin businessman estimated that should Austin stop growing, our population would drop 25,000 people--employees and their families dependent on new development. "Previously I mentioned that Austin's land area has grown from 20,000 to 30,000 acres (approximately 1/3) in the past 10 years. This was primarily due to residential growth provided by subdividers willing to risk their capital to make a profit. Standard ordinances under which they operate must be fair and equitable. They must require him to furnish minimum standards for public-use lands (such as streets) necessary to the subdivision. They must not be punitive or restrictive in such a way as to discourage his further operation. "In considering any ordinances affecting subdividing, I would appeal to the Council to keep in mind Austin's role as a growing Capital City and our obligation to furnish adequate and desirable housing necessary for expanding govern- mental, commercial and industrial activities. ) : CITY OF AUSTIN. TEXAS MR. O'QUINN read the following Resolution by the Austin Home Builders Association: "RESOLUTION BY AUSTIN HOME BUILDERS ASSOCIATION "BE IT RESOLVED by the Austin Home Builders Association in meeting assembled on April 11, 1960 (as evidenced by the signatures below of those members present at the meeting adopting this resolution), as follows: "1. We pledge to the City Council of the City of Austin our continued cooperation in arriving at subdivision requirements which are fair and reasonable, both to the City and to those who must comply with the requirements. "2. The recommendations which we understand are being made to the City Council by the City Planning Commission as to street standards and right-of-way policies we recommend for adoption by the City Council. "3. In addition to the recommendations made by the City Planning Commission, it is our considered opinion that the subdivision ordinance should be further amended as to the following: (a) In low cost subdivisions, such as FHA and GI loan property, we agree that the width of right-of-way should be 50 feet, but we recommend that the paved portion be 26 feet. These streets are regarded as minor residential streets and, according to the following impartial authorities, 26 feet of pavement is considered proper and adequate: Urban Land Institute, Home Builders' Manual for Land Development and National Committee for Traffic Safety. (b) In mountainous and extremely hilly areas where normal paving width would not be practical, we recommend that variations be permitted from standard paving widths upon approval by the City Planning Commission. (c) Where the proposed subdivision lies only on one side of an existing street, that is to say that the developer does not control nor is subdividing the opposite side of the street, a temporary variation from the standard street width should be permitted provided that this developer has dedicated onehalf of the required standard width. In connection with existing streets, we wish to supplement what is stated in this paragraph with the recommendation that, when a previously dedicated street will go through a proposed subdivision, and the subdivider is subdividing both sides of this existing street, he will be required to give sufficient land to bring the right-of-way up to 50 feet if the street is residential, and up to 60 feet if it is a collector street. "4. (a) In the acquisition of street right-of-way, we keenly feel that, unless some workable means is involved whereby the subdivider may obtain early approval of his plat without having first to resolve the question of how much right-of-way is to be given or dedicated and whether it is to be paid for, the subdivider and home builder will be so greatly handicapped from an economic standpoint that he may not be able to stay in business. (b) When a right-of-way is needed by the City through or along any portion of the subdivision and that right-of-way is primarily for the benefit of the public rather than the proposed subdivision, such right-of-way in its entirety will be purchased by the City at its reasonable cash market value when considered as raw land, that is, before the execution of the proposed plat by ) CITY OF AUSTIN. TEXAS the subdivider. In the event controversy arises over whether this street is primarily for the general public or whether for the benefit of that subdivision, the subdivider may show the disputed area as "reserved" on the plat so as to be able to proceed with his subdivision development, utilities and other phases of development, without being required either, (1) to wait until that controversy. is resolved or (2) to wait for approval of the proposed plat. "5. Finally, we recommend that a committee of competent persons of notless than five members be appointed by the City Council to study and make reccommendations regarding a formula which would clearly classify all new subdivi- sion streets by ascertainable standards as either (1) 50-foot residential; (2) 60 to 80-foot collector; and (3) for various types of thoroughfares of still wider widths. We believe that such formula should be based largely on the volume of traffic at the time of the proposed subdivision and the volume which can be reasonably anticipated within a year thereafter. We further recommend that the volume of traffic at both dates be estimated with reference to (a) traffic by the general public and unrelated to that subdivision, and (b) traffic reasonably related to the creation, use and existence of that subdivision. "(Unanimously adopted by 36 members present whose signatures appear on the original.)" The Council also had before it the following: "RESOLUTION BY AUSTIN REAL ESTATE BOARD "BE IT RESOLVED by the Austin Real Estate Board, acting through its Subdivision Committee, in meeting assembled on April 12, 1960, that the City Council of the City of Austin be advised as follows: "1. The present development of subdivisions in the City of Austin is done by developers who are both subdividers and home builders. "2. We have been furnished with a resolution of the Austin Home Builders' Association adopted at its meeting on April 11, 1960. We concur in all of the contents and recommendations of that resolution and hereby join in recommending to the City Council for its careful consideration all of the matters contained in that resolution. "3. The home building industry in the City of Austin is one of its major industries. The economic effects of its operations are far-reaching to the economics of the city, both the city government and the various segments of the home building industry. We known that reasonable and well-grounded subdivision requirements are wholesome for orderly development of the city. We think it is important that the City Council fully appreciate and known that subdivision requirements may have one of two opposite effects: (1) the requirements will, if reasonable and fair, promote development, promote purchase of homes, increase ad valorem tax values, increase water and light consumption, and will encourage subdivision development thereby making possible employment for the many segments relating to the subdivision and home building industry. On the other hand, (2) subdivision requirements may become so stringent, if specifically stringent, or so uncertain that subdividers cannot obtain suitable financing or, if they obtain it, cannot know from day to day what requirements may be made for the approval of a given subdivision plat. "4. We therefore respectfully request the City Council's best CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS "AUSTIN REAL ESTATE BOARD By Its Subdivision Committee" thinking and fair consideration so that policies may be adopted in the best interest of all concerned. ) MR GIBSON RANDLE went into detail on the subjects under dispute. As to the right-of-way, he stated where the street was to have additional width, that width would be for public purpose and payment should be made. Regarding the 26' width pavement, he said this was recommended for the FHA and GI subdivisions or where there was a terrain problem. He listed references for the recommendation. Mr. Randle discussed severance damages in connection with increasing the widths of the streets. He recommended that when an additional width was desired, but the amount was uncertain, that the developer be permitted to proceed with his subdivision, and show the land under question as "reserved", until a determination of width and price is made. As to the five-member committee to make the study of the streets, Mr. Randle stated he believed that the Plan Commission would recommend that the members not be drawn from it. He suggested that members be selected from the Home Building professions and the Real Estate Board. The eight members present from the Plan Commission all stated they wanted to keep the 30' paving width. MR. NASH PHILLIPS stated a 26' paving width was a national standard, and that 26' would carry just what a 30' street would carry. MR. BILL BULLARD stated he was putting in 36' paving widths in his subdivisions, but they were higher priced subdivisions, but the 30' had no advantage over the 26' width, except it would give more elbow room, but would not carry any more traffic. After more discussion, Councilman Bechtol moved that the Council adopt the initial phase of our Austin Plan in the adoption of the Thoroughfare Standards as recommended by the Planning Commission, as follows: 1. The following right of way and design standards should be adopted. The standards are based on those proposed in the Development Plan but have been modified to reduce maintenance costs, facilitate easier widening of existing streets, and reduce right-of-way costs. The paving designs are based on: a. C. The number of lanes required to move traffic quickly. b. Provision of a parking lane or disabled vehicle lane. The incorporation of a high degree of safety into the designs through the use of median or divider strips, left-turn storage lanes, lane widths adapted to traffic speed, prevention of left-turns onto or off of main arteries except at intersections, and provision of space for signals and other traffic control devices. d. Provision of space for additional widening if traffic demand requires it. Current estimates indicate that vehicle registration in Travis County will increase from the current 75,000 to over 135,000 in 1980 and to more than 190,000 at full development of the planning area. The Texas Highway Department estimates that the average annual number of miles traveled by each vehicle will increase from 9,400 to 11,600 in 1985, an increase ) e. = CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS of 23 percent. The provision of adequate space between the curb and right-of-way line (curb space) for utilities and, where possible and desirable, sidewalks. 2. THOROUGHFARE STANDARDS Minimum Minimum Paving Width Type Right-of-way Width (including curb and gutter) Minor Residential Streets 50' 30' Minor Collector Streets 60' 40' Neighborhood Collector Streets 70' 44 Commercial Collector Streets* 80' 441 Secondary Thoroughfares* 90' 441 Primary Thoroughfares* 120' 44 *Initial development of commercial collectors, secondary thoroughfares, and primary thoroughfares would be to the above standards. When development and traffic conditions required, the paving should be widened to the following standards: Commercial Collector Streets: 68' of paving including 4-12' moving lanes and 2-10' parking lanes. Secondary Thoroughfares: 68' of paving including 4-11' moving lanes, 2-10' parking lanes, and a 4 median strip. Normally 11' of curb space. At intersections, the median should be expanded to 14' width with a 10' left-turn storage lane and a reduction of normal curb spaces to 6'. Primary Thoroughfares: "A" 68' of paving including 4-12' moving lanes, 2-10' parking lanes, and a 14' median strip. Normally 19' of curb space. "B" 86' of paving including 6-11' moving lanes, 2-10' parking lanes, and a 14' median strip. In both Designs "A" and "B", principle intersections should have a 10' left turn storage lane in the median strip. 3. The general routes and types of thoroughfares shown in the Development Plan should be used. The use of the Thoroughfare Plan will make it possible for the Department of Planning, the Department of Public Works, the Traffic and Transportation Department, the utilities departments, and other units of the further. _ CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS City to have the coordination necessary to carry out a major program of street and thoroughfare improvement. In addition, the property owners, business men, and public will be able to estimate more precisely the best locations for commercial, industrial and residential areas, the accessibility to and from various areas, and the effects on existing development. Some members of the Planning Commission felt that specific routes for these thoroughfares should be surveyed and designated at the present time. This would serve to protect the entire route through an area and, at the same time, give the land owner a definite basis for planning development. Some members of the departmental committee felt that the City could not afford to establish definite alignments which would involve extensive engineering work and possibly place an immediate commitment on the City to purchase right-of-way now in the county area. The majority agreed that specific routes should be established as the land is subdivided or as requirements dicated and finances permitted. 4. Initial development of a new thoroughfare or collector street right-of-way should be at least 44 feet of paving and curb and gutter as shown in Collector Street Design "A". The thoroughfare should be expanded to the standards shown when traffic conditions warranted and the City could afford such improvements. The motion, seconded by Councilman Palmer, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Bechtol, Palmer, White, Mayor Miller Noes: Councilman Perry Councilman Bechtol stated that the 26' paving width would be studied Councilman Palmer asked the City Attorney to comment on the policy of acquiring the rights-of-way. The City Attorney submitted copies of the present policy as adopted by the Council on August 27, 1959, and alternates that might be considered, as follows: "I. Policy insuring subdivider against out-of-pocket loss for development costs, and against both out-of-pocket loss and loss of any accrued enhancement in land value because streets are over 60 feet wide. Adopted by City Council August 27, 1959. "The City will only accept dedications of land for streets where the right of way is at least as wide as the widths herein prescribed. "A. Streets sixty feet or less: Land for streets sixty feet or less in width will be accepted only where the entire right of way is dedicated without cost to the City. "B. Streets more than 60 feet: Where a tract of land is proposed to be CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS divided into two or more lots to be served by streets required by theCity to be more than sixty feet wide, and the cash market value of all the lots after the development required by the City would total less than the cash market value of the tract of land as a whole for its highest and best use before subdivision, plus the cost of the development required by the City, the City may accept the dedication of less than the full width required where the subdivider is willing to dedicate sixty feet and as much additional width as would not result in diminition of value to the extent described in this paragraph "B", and is willing to do either of the following, as the City may elect: "(1) Establish lines of record clearly showing both the sixty-plus feet of right of way presently dedicated and the additional land planned ultimately to be required by the public for street right of way purposes; or "(2) Sell the land, in excess of the sixty-plus feet right of way presently dedicated, which is planned ultimately to be required by the public for street right of way purposes, for the cash market value of the undeveloped land upon the approved written appraisal of appraisers selected by the City. "II. Policy insuring subdivider against realizing less than 40% mark-up because streets are over 60 feet wide. Same as I above, execpt that the fourth line of "B" would read as follows "Lots after the development required by the City would total less than 140% of the" "III. Policy paying subdivider for all land over 60 feet required for street width. First two paragraphs same as in I above Third paragraph to read as follows: "B. Streets more than 60 feet: Where a tract of land is proposed to be divided into two or more lots to be served by streets required by the City to be more than sixty feet wide, the City will accept the dedication where the subdivider is willing to dedicate sixty feet, and is willing to do either of the following, as the City may elect: "(1) Establish lines of record clearly showing sixty feet of right of way presently dedicated and the additional land planned ultimately to be required by the public for street right of way purposes; or "(2) Sell the land required for right-of-way in excess of 60 feet in width for the full value such land is shown to have on the official tax rolls of the City of Austin for the calendar year during which the dedication is offered. "IV. Policy of paying subdivider for all land over 60 feet required for streets, by adding to Refund Contract. Same as III except that a last sentence would be added reading: ) CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS "Payment under this provision shall be made by adding such amount to the refund contract between the City and the subdivider." MR. DAVE BARROW objected to each of the items listed by the City Attorney, and stated he believed the Planning Commission's recommendation was sound--that a subdivider donate 80' right-of-way in all cases; and in any case where he could show that the amount over 60' would not serve his subdivision that the City would pay him for the amount over 60'. The City Attorney explained legal aspects as to the matter of proof. The Mayor asked for figures on the amount of money spent for underground services to serve not only the people in Austin but in the subdivisions, and getting the services to the subdivisions. The City Manager stated that since 1950, $50 million dollars had been spent on utility systems to serve these new homes, and $15 million had been spent on drainage, streets, and bridges-- $65 million in ten years. MR. BARROW suggested that the right-of-way be set at 70 feet. Anything over 70' would be paid for by the City. MR. RANDLE stated he was not prepared to say what his group would want. MR. NASH PHILLIPS asked that it be kept at 60'; MR. TOM BRADFIELD stated 70' did not lend itself to anything particular. The City Attorney explained again about the amount of right-of-way. The City Manager stated it would be better to fix a width above which the City would pay in all cases than attempt to get into a question as to whether the City would pay it in about 50% of the cases. After considerable discussion, Councilman Palmer moved that the City of Austin adopt the following policy: RIGHT-OF-WAY POLICY Where a tract of land is proposed to be divided into two or more lots to be served by a street, the City will not accept the street dedication unless the street complies with the Thoroughfare Standards of the City. A. Streets Seventy Feet or Less: Land for streets seventy feet orless in width will be accepted only where the entire right-of-way is dedicated without cost to the city. B. Streets More than Seventy Feet: Land for streets more than seventy feet in width will be accepted only where the subdivider is willing to dedicate seventy feet, and is willing to do either of the following, as the City may elect: (1) Establish lines of record clearly showing seventy feet of right-Of-way presently dedicated and the additional land planned ultimately to be required by the public for street right-of-way purposes; or (2) Sell the land required for right-of-way in excess of 70 feet in width for the cash market value of the undeveloped land upon a written appraisal approved by the City and the subdivider. The motion, seconded by Councilman Bechtol, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Bechtol, Palmer, Perry, White, Mayor Miller Noes: None ) )))))) C =CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS- The City Manager stated that it might be well for all to get together to see whether or not this could be added to the refund contracts or building line limits be set up, or "reserves" established as a means of temporarily carrying this until the City set up its appropriations. MR. FRANK MONTGOMERY and MR. WILSON FOREMAN were present and took part in the discussions. Councilman Bechtol moved that the City property (the old incinerator property) be listed with MR. F. F. KNIGHT for a period not to exceed 60 days from today at a net price to the City of $60,000. (This was for the purpose of offering the property for the Post Office and General Government Services) The motion, seconded by Councilman White, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Bechtol, White, Mayor Miller Noes: None Present but not voting: Councilman Perry Not in Council Room when vote was taken: Councilman Palmer The Council received notice from the City Manager that the following zoning applications had been referred to the Plan Commission and set for public hearing before the Council on May 19, 1960: BECKER PROPERTIES By E.
