The motion, seconded by Councilman Long, carried by the following vote: Councilmen LaRue, Long, Shanks, White, Mayor Palmer Ayes: Noes: None The Mayor announced that the ordinance had been finally passed. MR. JOE DACY, MR.NALLE, MR. W.W. PATTERSON and others were present in the interest of the ordinance to vacate NORTH CONGRESS AVENUE from the State Capitol Grounds to 14th Street. Mr. Patterson said these gentlemen in down town Austin were strongly opposed to this street's being closed north of the Capitol and urged the Council to have a public hearing. Councilman Shanks asked if they realized the gates could be closed on the Capitol grounds anyway. Mayor Palmer stated in most cases where the property owners of land on both sides of the street request vacation, it is done. In this case, the request is that this portion of the street be vacated for the purpose of policing and patrolling just as is done around the Capitol grounds. He stated the State could close off the entrances both at llth Street and 13th Street now. He said inquiry had been made of the State about their request, to see if it pertained only to policing the area. Mayor Palmer reviewed to the group the Capitol Plan submitted to the Council some years back stating there was contemplated a Mall between the State Office Building and State Court Building, and farther down Congress Avenue. Mr. Dacy asked if they could specifically request the State not to close Congress. Councilman Long stated once the street has been vacated the City loses all control, and the State patrols this area now and there is no need for this to be closed for their control, as the State does that now. She stated the best thing to do is not to vacate it, and the City will still have control. Mr. Patterson inquired if anyone knew who was behind this request, as it was hard to find out. He asked that there be a public hearing. The City Attorney stated the State has acquired all the property between 1lth and 14th Streets and San Jacinto and Colorado, with the exception of some property between Lavaca and Colorado and from 13th to 11th. In the plan the Building Commission submitted in 1956, the Council was asked to vacate a portion of Brazos, and a portion of Colorado, and to vacate Congress Avenue north. The State, if it desired to do so, could fence this off right now, across the drives. The Council held two public hearings in 1956 and approved the plan of the State for expansion. At the time the ordinances vacating these streets and alleys, including 13th Street Alley, Brazos, and Colorado Street, and another alley or two were being prepared, he had pointed out to the State they did not own title to two tracts and asked them to delete from their request this portion of Congress Avenue, because it might involve a controversy with the two property owners. That portion of the ordinance vacating the street which the Building Commission had asked for, and which the City Council unanimously - CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS May 14, 1964 agreed to do, was deleted from the ordinance at that time, and the other streets were vacated. In this past session of the legislature, an Act was passed author izing the Board of Control to regulate traffic on the Capitol grounds; and when the Board started to erect signs, etc., they discovered this portion of Congress Avenue had not been vacated, as they thought it had. The City Attorney had suggested they submit a fresh request, and the Attorney General made the request, so the State could legally have their signs there and legally regulate traffic. Their indications are that they do not desire to block traffic. The Mayor asked the group to give the Council an opportunity to check on this further. Councilman Long stated when it came up there would be a public hearing and everyone would be notified. i Councilman Shanks offered the following resolution and moved its adoption (RESOLUTION) WHEREAS, there has been submitted to the Building Inspector, the application of Mr. David B. Barrow for a building permit together with a site plan dated May 11, 1964, meeting the requirements of Section 10-B, 3 of the Zoning Ordinance of the City, for certain building establishment at 2212 Nueces, more particularly described in said application; and, WHEREAS, it has been found and determined by the City Council of the City of Austin that, based upon the use of the premises for the purpose of erecting an apartment hotel the maximum number of parking spaces which will probably be used by employees and customers of such establishment, taking into account the loading facilities on the site, the public parking areas and street space available for parking in the vicinity, public safety, and free circulation of traffic both on and off the site, is twenty-one (21) parking spaces; Now, Therefore, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AUSTIN: That twenty-one (21) spaces is an adequate number of parking spaces for the establishment shown on the site plan of Mr. David B. Barrow dated May 11, 1964, for use of the premises for the purpose of erecting an apartment hotel. The motion, seconded by Councilman White, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen LaRue, Long, Shanks, White, Mayor Palmer Noes: None Councilman White offered the following resolution and moved its adoption: (RESOLUTION) WHEREAS, there has been submitted to the Building Inspector, the application of Mr. H. T. Baker for a building permit together with a site plan dated May 11, 1964, meeting the requirements of Section 10-B, 3 of the Zoning Ordinance of the City, for certain building establishment at 1801 Rio Grande, more particularly described in said application; and, WHEREAS, it has been found and determined by the City Council of the City of Austin that, based upon the use of the premises for the purpose of addition =CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS May 14, 1964 5 to an apartment hotel the maximum number of parking spaces which will probably be used by employees and customers of such establishment, taking into account the loading facilities on the site, the public parking areas and street space available for parking in the vicinity, public safety, and free circulation of traffic both on and off the site, is sixteen (16) parking spaces; Now, Therefore, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AUSTIN: That sixteen (16) spaces is an adequate number of parking spaces for the establishment shown on the site plan of Mr. H. T. Baker dated May 11, 1964, for use of the premises for the purpose of addition to an apartment hotel.

The City Manager reported a request from Bryant-Curington Engineers on behalf of the owners of property known as Santa Monica South that a study be made of this area to decide whether the classification of the property under the Master Plan should be charged from Industrial to Residential. The matter was submitted to the Planning Department and Planning Commission for consideration, and the Planning Commission has made a recommendation. The Planning Director said there were about 50 acres included in this area. He showed on a large map the section under consideration, and other sections previously considered. The owners are Mr. Kelley DeBusk, Mr. Chester Freund and others; and Mr. Barrow who owns adjoining property. Councilman long inquired if there were any objections to this. The Planning Director had not heard of any. CouncilmanLaRue moved that MR. DAVID BARROW be heard. The motion was seconded by Councilman Long. Roll call showed a unanimous vote. The MR. DAVID BARROW said he owned property on both sides, and had no opinion personally as a property owner whether it should be industrial or residential, and whichever way the Council rules is satisfactory. If this is changed to residential, that the adjoining property should also be changed, as this residential area should not be in between the industrial areas. The Council discuss- ed the thoroughfare, extension of Pleasant Valley Road through the area. Mayor stated if there were a 120' thoroughfare, and the area is changed to residential, it would not be too long before there were requests to change it back for some other purpose, as that is a main artery. The Planning Director pointed out the basic items existing as immediate or proposed situations--the thoroughfare, railroad, Ben White Boulevard, St. Elmo, and the Junior High School site located in the middle, which perhaps indicates one of the greatest problems in the area. The Planning Director discussed the street pattern in the area. Councilman LaRue suggested a restudy of the whole area in here. The Planning Director read from the Recommendation of the Planning Commission the ideas expressed by individual members in that there is ample industrial land available to satisfy the needs for the next 25 years; the industrial designation was not a desirable one in light of the school site; and the residential area would be large enough to be a self-sustaining community. With this he did not agree, stating the area was not adequate. The Planning Commission's recommendation was to change to residential all of the land south of the railroad, and east of the north and south line of approximately 210' west of the school site. 210' strip is under Mr. Chester Freund's ownership. The most critical element is the amount of industrial land needed. The Mayor inquired about the depth of the area off the railroad track. This was discussed by the Planning Director. Councilman LaRue moved that MR. CHESTER FREUND be heard. The motion was seconded by Councilman Long. Roll call showed a unanimous vote. This MR. CHESTER FREUND stated it was pointed out by Mr. Davey, in the Planning Department, that this property would be developed industrially by 1980, and the entire area is subject to the industrial development. He purchased this property in 1951, 83 acres on the north side of the tract and 67 on the south side, considering it as industrial and holding it as such. He said this is one of the most beautiful residential areas and has the most beautiful view of Austin anywhere, and the schools have bought as fine a site as possible. He intended to CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS May 14, 1964 develop his property across the road as residential. The I.R.S. has made this property available for a high class residential area. He pointed out the advantages of the residential area and the advantages to the school site. The Mayor inquired if sewer and water could be made available to the subdivision. The Planing Director stated this would be an urban subdivision and connected to the City water and sewer system. The Mayor stated the Council would go look at this whole area. Later in the meeting the Council considered again the request to change the Austin Development Plan. The Mayor stated there was some question as to whether or not sewer could be made available to that land. He did not want to see another subdivision go in with septic tanks in that particular area. Finally after discussion, Councilman Long moved to continue the hearing until further information is received concerning certain aspects of drainage, sewers, etc. The motion, seconded by Councilman LaRue, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen LaRue, Long, Shanks, White, Mayor Palmer Noes: None The City Manager stated he had just checked the map on this property as to whether it could be served with sanitary sewer or not. The north part of the tract could be served with a sanitary sewer from the north; the rest of it would have to be served by a sewer which ultimately could go into the Williamson Creek Sewage Treatment System; but at the present time that would involve the extension of a line up to approximately a mile or so farther than the ultimate requirements just to get to the present Sewage Treatment Plant. In all probability that property could not be served with sewer for quite a few years. More than half of the sewage would have to go into Williamson Creek, and that would not be ready for several years, unless someone wanted to pay for an approach main which would cost from $75,000-$100,000. He stated more study would be given on this however. Pursuant to published notice thereof the following zoning application was publicly heard: FRANK C. BARRON Tract 1 4907-5033 New Manor Road 2901-2905 East 51st Street Tract 2 2907-2917 East 51st Street 5000 Block Aspen Grove Circle 5000Block Blue Spruce Circle From "A" Residence To "GR" General Retail RECOMMENDED by the Planning Commission From "A" Residence To "BB" Residence RECOMMENDED by the Planning Commission The Planning Director reviewed this zoning application, stating the zoning was heard in 1959 and it was recommended. However, it was requested that a subdivision be submitted, and subsequently it has been submitted, and constructed. Since the zoning was an old case, it was referred to the Planning Commission for review. The original hold-up was that a subdivision be submitted, and another thing was the creek crossing. Discussion was held on the triangular tract of land which was not included in the subdivision but on which was the drainage and proposed construction of the bridge. Mr. Barron stated he had a refund contract and was under the impression the zoning was in effect. The Mayor asked about his participation in the bridge. Mr. Barron stated whoever subdivides the acreage on the east would be the one who would participate mostly on the bridge. i The Planning Director stated he did not think that Mr. Sasser's property abutted 50% CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXASMay 14, 1964 the drainage. The Mayor stated the matter under consideration was zoning. Councilman Long moved that the zoning change be granted as recommended by the Planning Commission. The motion, seconded by Councilman LaRue, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen LaRue, Long, Shanks, White, Mayor Palmer Noes: None The Mayor announced that the change had been granted to "GR" General Retail for Tract 1 and to "BB" Residence for Tract 2 and the City Attorney was instructed to draw the necessary ordinance to cover. Councilman Long offered the following resolution and moved its adoption: (RESOLUTION) BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AUSTIN: That W. T. Williams, Jr., City Manager, be and he is hereby authorized and directed, on behalf of the City of Austin, to execute and deliver that certain Pipe Line License Agreement dated January 15, 1964, between said City and Missouri Pacific Railroad Company concerning the installation, maintenance and use of that certain cast iron sewer pipe line, 15 inches in diameter beneath the Missouri Pacific Railroad track in the James Mitchell Survey in Travis County, Texas, Engineers' Chainage Station 9108/28. The motion, seconded by Councilman White, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen LaRue, Long, Shanks, White, Mayor Palmer Noes: None After discussion of the building plans, Councilman Shanks offered the following resolution and moved its adoption: (RESOLUTION) BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AUSTIN: THAT the City Council of the City of Austin hereby approves the construction and maintenance of a loading platform in the sidewalk area on the north side of West Third, adjoining property which is owned by Mr. C.

JOHN REED.

The Council had before it a refund contract with D. L. WELCH and JERRY N. WALLACE, for water mains in Summit Oaks, Section 2, in Travis Williamson Water District No. 1. The City Manager explained this subdivision was three miles west of the railroad tract, on old Highway 183; was developed with 48 lots; had paved streets which were not quite up to city standards; but they did have curbs. The subdivision has water facilities but no sewer facilities and this contract would be for a refund for water of 37% of the water bills, up to 80% of the cost. Councilman Long inquired how long it would be before the City would be able to serve this area. The City Manager stated he was not certain enough about the terrain right now to know about the drainage, and explained sewer line extensions off the Shoal Creek Line extend out to the new subdivision of Wallace Mayfield. This subdivision under consideration is about three miles farther west. He stated it is quite possible that this line would be served by a line in Bull Creek someday. After discussion, Mayor Palmer introduced the following ordinance: AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO A CERTAIN CONTRACT WITH D. L. WELCH AND JERRY N.

MR. ED ST. JOHN outlined their second request for permission to conduct races on the Town Lake over the July 4th weekend (Saturday and Sunday). Closed course races on a one mile course confined to the Festival Beach area would be conducted, and the boats would all be running with closed mufflers. These would be professionals. Councilman Long made inquiry about those with sail boats. Mr. St. John stated they were all in the same group, and they are working together. She asked if there would be an area where they could enjoy the lake on that weekend. She said if this were worked out with the sail boat people she would have no objections. Councilman Long inquired about the availability of police boats and if these groups were to do their own patrolling. It was stated the Department was limited in the amount of its man power, and it would be preferable that the group police themselves, and the Police Department would render what assistance it could. Councilman LaRue moved that the Council grant the requests as set forth by MR. ED ST. JOHN. The motion, seconded by Councilman Shanks, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen LaRue, Long, Shanks, White, Mayor Palmer Noes: None CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS May 14, 1964 51 Councilman Shanks moved that the Council grant permission for an additional hooding of a parking meter in front of the Federal Building for the U.S. Marshal.

EVANS The motion, seconded by Councilman LaRue, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen LaRue, Shanks, White, Mayor Palmer Noes: Councilman Long Councilman Long made the following statement: "I think it is a shame when you have nine people on a Board and you do not consider a woman. There are many women in the City that support the Hospital, vote bonds, pay taxes; you have women serving on the Auxiliary Board every day of the week, and it is just a shame that we can not name at least two women or three on a Board of nine. I vote 'no' on all of these, and I am sorry Dr. Ruth Bain was not elected; Mrs. Forest Hill, and a representative from the University of Texas, Professor James R. Soukop. All of these I recommended and wanted on the Board, but was overruled by the majority." Councilman Long moved that the Council congratulate and thank DR. M. D. McCAULEY and MR. PAGE KEETON who are going off the Advisory Hospital Board and who had served long and faithfully and contributed a great deal to the City of Austin, and that the City Clerk send them a letter of appreciation along with this motion. The motion, seconded by Councilman LaRue, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen LaRue, Long, Shanks, White, Mayor Palmer Noes: None CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS May 14, 1964 The Council deferred making appointments on the Building Code Appeals Board, and Parks and Recreation Board until the following week. The City Manager brought up for discussion the Federal Act which pertains to Federal participation in open space land. There are still some funds available for the acquisition of future park sites, from money received from the sale of the Hancock Tract which was earmarked for the acquisition of future park sites, and some of that has already been spent for that purpose. Property is now being hunted for a large district park on the north area of the town. The Parks and Recreation Board sometime ago indicated that not only additional parks which might be located in the vicinity of Fiskville, but a much larger park further out be acquired. Sites that might be suitable for park purposes have been studied. It might be that a tract could be acquired of such size that later on a portion of it could be converted to a different use. That could be determined later. However, Federal funds are available for participation with cities in acquisition of lands which are to be for open spaces. Participation in the cost is not limited to recreation and park land, but includes land acquired which will be kept generally so that there would be open space or green belts. If Federal funds are used, it would not result in fixing the use of property or dedicating the use for recreation purposes. Once the Federal funds have been used, if at a later date it is determined that some of the land should no longer be kept for open spaces for which it was acquired, other land could be substituted. The City Manager stated the Council would be interested in this matter; and in the immediate future, it might be that application for participation in the acquisition of land might be made for property on the river, and others. It would be required to have ten acres or more--no maximum. The City Manager discussed briefly a tract on Town Lake that could be extended three acres, and the three acres might be eligible in that it was an extension. The City Attorney stated participation by the Government would be 20%; but if the City and County were working jointly on a program, the participation would be up to 30%. Councilman Long inquired about the circumstances for entering into such a program. The Director of Planning stated the City had its Master Plan; and it would be required that the project be set up in keeping with the Master Plan; and the various projects which have been mentioned do. The Mayor asked about certification under the workable program, and it was stated this would be necessary. Planning Director discussed the Metropolitan Plan or the City-County Plan. was his belief it would be a period of about two years before the City could go into a metropolitan plan and he explained what the metropolitan area plan would cover. The City Attorney explained another purpose in addition to recreation, preservation of historical sites, park uses, and the conservation program, that the creation of a lake or pond might also be covered. The City Manager explained this program had in mind cities that are not already bottled up where property is still available at reasonable prices, and the program is aimed to prevent cities from becoming like these large cities, completely devoid of open space. Councilman long asked if the City Manager were proposing to take action on this now, or was this just a matter of information. The City Manager said he would propose when acquisition of further land is begun that this approach be used if it is available. It could be used in connection with the acquisition of the property on Town Lake; and on the east end of the sand beach when acquisition of additional property is anticipated and acquisition of a large park area north of town. The City Attorney stated the people from H.H. & F.A. had indicated they would look with favor of giving high approval before the final grant was closed out, with the understanding that when the grant was made it would cover that. Since it is known that land is going to be purchased and since the City already has a Master Plan and since Austin has been recertified and meets all The It - CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS May 14, 1964 515 of the criteria the City should avail itself of this program. He said there was some urgency about getting the application in before June. The Planning Director asked if the Council felt this was generally a suitable procedure, that probably next week one or two specific projects, upon which applications could be made could be submitted for the Council's review and approval. The City Attorney stated the project would be described in general terms--what the purpose was, its general location, and that it conforms to the Master Plan. The City Manager inquired about the area on the north bank of Town Lake, where the City planned expansion of city ownership. Councilman Long inquired if the Parks and Recreation Board reviewed any of these areas. The City Attorney said they had located one as far as the land was concerned. It would not have to locate the specific land, but describe it generally. MAYOR PALMER asked that a project be brought in that would qualify and that members of the Council be furnished copies of this Federal Act. The Planning Director stated he would get this to the Council the next day. Councilman Long stated she was not concerned about working with the little town sites on the outside of the City. Councilman White inquired about a Committee and an appropriation of about $6,000 for amending a portion of the Planning Ordinance or Code, and stated he had heard not one word about its progress and asked what had happened to this. The Planning Director reported there was a proposed new zoning ordinance which is ready to be reviewed from the standpoint of its legal situation as to the internal aspects of the ordinance in its compliance with the general Zoning Laws of Texas; and the method to use in adopting this ordinance. He stated this method could be very complicated. Councilman White stated it seemed the whole thing had died on the vine, as no one knows what happened to it, and people were asking him about it. The Planning Director stated this is at the point of internal work now, and they were getting ready to suggest to the Council. Council- man White asked him if he would talk to these gentlemen and explain to them the status of this ordinance at this point. MAYOR PALMER referred to a letter from MR. AND MRS. R. P. REED and KATHERINE REED commending the Council on the Hike and Bike Trail. MAYOR PALMER read a letter from FEHR and GRANGER, Architects, et al, regarding Brackenridge Hospital. A letter from MR. ED B. FULLER regarding inspection charges on house moving was read by Mayor Palmer. The City Manager stated the ordinance would be checked to see if the proper construction was the requirement of two fees; and if that were not what the Council intended, the ordinance could be amended. Councilman Long asked that this be brought in next week. The matter was referred to the City Attorney. The City Attorney stated after the Council acted on the Hospital Expansion Program, a call was received from MR. JAKE SILBERSTEIN regarding property on the Interregional Highway and on Sabine and 12th Street. The City Attorney showed the locations of the properties on a plat. Originally Mr. Silberstein set a price of $4.00 a square foot; on the tax roll it would be about $1.10. He reduced his offer to $3.75 on the Interregional and $3.50 on the Sabine Street property. The City Attorney recommended that the offer be rejected. Councilman LaRue moved that this offer be rejected. The motion, seconded by Councilman Shanks, carried by the following vote: =CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS May 14, 1964 51% Ayes: Councilmen LaRue, Long, Shanks, White, Mayor Palmer Noes: None The City Attorney stated for record-keeping purposes, he had a recommendation concerning the purchases of four tracts of land from the Schools, and the sale of one tract by the City to the Schools, all of which had taken place over the past two years, that the Council confirm the sale to the Schools the 7.5 acres and the purchase by the City of the various tracts, each being purchased at the appraised price, so there will be one reference confirming the transaction, making it more convenient, in referring to these purchases. Councilman LaRue moved that the Council confirm the purchase and sale of the herein described properties at the prices indicated: TRACT 1. 11.73 acres known as the R. G. Mueller tract out of the Isaac Decker League - $25,410.00 TRACT 2. 25.589 acres out of Outlots 53, 54, and 59, of Division A known as the H. S. Gullett tract $32,385.00 TRACT 3.
