The motion, seconded by Councilman Gage, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Noes: Councilmen Atkison, Gage, Janes, Johnson, MacCorkle, Price, Mayor LaRue None PETITION REGARDING RAILROAD CROSSING Mrs. Sue Crider and a group of citizens from the Wooten School Area spoke regarding a railroad crossing. Mr. Fred Beckner presented the problem of the elementary school children's having to cross the railroad tracks to get to school or go circuitous routes and cross heavily travelled Anderson Lane. Wooten Drive, unopened, is used by the children to cross the tracks as pedestrians or via bicycle. The Southern Pacific Train recently has been blocking this crossing and the children crawl under the train, some dragging their bicycles under also. A petition with over 600 names was filed requesting the opening of Wooten Drive for vehicular traffic at this crossing, or to pass an ordinance prohibiting the Southern Pacific from blocking this crossing at the time that children are going to or coming from Wooten Elementary School. The City Manager stated his staff was familiar with this problem. Mr. Davidson, Deputy City Manager, said the Railroad Company had stated May 21, 1970 CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS if the City installed an approved pedestrian type crossing with audible signal, that they would authorize the City to construct such a crossing at this particular location, and their train traffic would observe and help to maintain an opening for that crossing. The type of signal device would cost from $4,000 to $6,000. With further study, if it is possible to install such a signal at the crossing prior by the opening of school in September, Mr. Davidson recommended that the City Manager be authorized to proceed. In the meantime, since this was brought to their attention and until the closing of school, the Traffic Engineer has assigned a person to be stationed at this location at the hours the children would be using this crossing. Councilman Johnson moved that the Council get this street opened by September 1st. The motion, seconded by Councilman Gage, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Noes: Councilmen Atkison, Gage, Janes, Johnson, MacCorkle, Price, Mayor LaRue None C. T. JOHNSON TO DISCUSS HOSPITALIZATION IN THE VARIOUS HOSPITALS IN AUSTIN Mr. C. T. Johnson read his statement regarding an excess of hospital rooms He in some hospitals, but no personnel, and pointing out the long waiting periods necessary to get into the hospitals. He pointed out one of the private hospitals had three wings of beautifully furnished rooms that were not in service, but added a tremendous financial burden on patients. He hoped that when Brackenridge expansion was planned that the administration had planned a staffing program. read letters from various doctors in response to one he had written "To the Editor'". He had suggested that nurseries be established for children of hospital personnel, and that Medical Corps men, as they return to civilian life be used in the community health program, and that attractive salaries be offered. Councilman Johnson stated the letter was timely in that Brackenridge Hospital is being expanded. The Mayor stated the City Manager is working on a program to expand the supply of nurses, and he will have a report in 30 to 60 days. MRS. B. L. LAWRENCE TO DISCUSS CITY PROPERTY Mrs. B. L. Lawrence had asked to be on the Agenda to discuss the clearing of City Property, but at this time she was not present. USE OF TOWN LAKE FOR BOAT DEMONSTRATION Mr. Robert Criss, speaking for Mr. Ernest J. Schmidt, requested the use of Town Lake east of the Interregional Bridge during the afternoon hours of July 25th through the 29th for boat demonstrations during the 1971 distributors' meeting. Boats would be on display about 2:30 to 3:00 P.M. and seven or eight boats would then be put on the water and would be run no later than 6:00 P.M. on those days. In discussing the noise factor, Councilman Janes recalled that last year they had no noise complaints. Councilman Janes moved that the Council grant the request. The motion, seconded by Councilman Atkison, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Noes: Councilmen Atkison, Gage, Janes, Jolinson, MacCorkle, Price, Mayor LaRue None CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS: May 21, 1970 FINAL PASSAGE OF THE BUS ORDINANCE The City Manager had no comments on the Bus Ordinance and recommended the final passage. Mr. Dan Felts expressed opposition to the bus ordinance, stating, however, if it were to be passed, he would like to suggest some amendments. He again urged before final passage that certain words be stricken in the definition portion of the ordinance, the effect of which would be that a government agency would be able to lease or rent buses in their operations without having to own them. The City Manager commented that the first time this condition would exist, he would come in and make a recommendation and handle the particular case; but in the meantime he thought the ordinance was proper. Mayor LaRue brought up the following ordinance for its third reading: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 34-79 OF THE AUSTIN CITY CODE OF 1967 TO PROVIDE FOR EFFECTIVE REGULATION, FRANCHISING AND CONTROL OF BUSSES OPERATING WITHIN THE CITY OF AUSTIN OR ITS ENVIRONS. The ordinance was read the third time and Councilman Gage moved that the ordinance be finally passed. The motion, seconded by Councilman Johnson, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Atkison, Gage, Janes, Johnson, MacCorkle, Price, Mayor LaRue Noes: None The Mayor announced that the ordinance had been finally passed. ORDINANCE GRANTING FRANCHISE TO TRANSPORTATION ENTERPRISE, INC. Mr. Dan Felts, representing Transportation Enterprise, Inc., inquired if the wording had been changed regarding initial routes. It was pointed out that routes or rerouting would require Council approval. Mr. Felts discussed the inclusion in the franchise of a request to operate a shuttle bus service and a charter service, although it was not the intent to have a charter service. He stated if the Council granted their franchise to operate a shuttle bus service so that the company could perform the service to the University of Texas, pursuant to the contract they had bid on to be effective for the fall term of the University, that the Company would abandon any request for charter bus service. The efficiency of the Austin Transit Company which would be able to retain the charter service through the entire city and have a monopoly on that business would not be impaired. Mr. Frank Denius was present but had not reviewed the ordinance under consideration at this time. It was pointed out there probably would be some amendments at the second reading. Mayor LaRue brought up the following ordinance for its first reading: AN ORDINANCE GRANTING TO TRANSPORTATION ENTERPRISES, INCORPORATED, A FRANCHISE FOR FIFTEEN (15) YEARS TO OPERATE AND MAINTAIN A MOTOR BUS SYSTEM FOR THE TRANSPORTATION OF PERSONS AND PROPERTY UPON THE PUBLIC STREETS AND HIGHWAYS OF THE CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS, PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE CONSTITUTION AND LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS, THE CHARTER OF THE CITY OF AUSTIN, AND THE CODES AND ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF AUSTIN: CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS= May 21, 1970. The ordinance was read the first time and Councilman Price moved that the ordinance be passed to its second reading. The motion, seconded by Councilman Atkison, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Noes: Councilmen Atkison, Janes, Johnson, MacCorkle, Price, Mayor LaRue Councilman Gage FINAL PASSAGE OF THE PARADE ORDINANCE Mr. Ed Krenik, who had been involved in the Veterans' Day Parade for many years and the Loyalty Day Parade, stated he saw no objection to this ordinance, as there should be regulation of parades, and the requirements would not place any undue burden upon the two groups in which he participated. Even the cash deposit was no problem for their parades, but perhaps the cost should have some bearing to what the costs were to some of the organizations who gather bands and floats from all over the country at a great expense to the sponsoring organization. He felt this group would be paying a price for other groups that had caused undue hardship on the Police Department. Mr. Lino A. Graglia a professor of constitutional law at The University of Texas, expressed in his opinion the proposed ordinance was unconstitutional in several respects, and discussed the ordinance in several aspects. Mr. Charles Howe, Vice President of Central Texas Chapter of American Civil Liberties Union, and also a minister, suggested that resources of the law school be sought before formal action on ordinances. Mr. Woodrow Sledge discussed the ordinance generally Mr. Bob Lusk read from quotations of a Supreme Court Justice in some of his lectures c limitations of free expression also provided in the first amendment free expression must not become a threat to law and order, government and security, and others. Rights of protection are also guaranteed permits are not rights but special privileges. No one else asked to be heard. Mayor LaRue brought up the following ordinance for its third reading: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 31 OF THE AUSTIN CITY CODE OF 1967 BY AMENDING SECTION 31-12 THEREOF; REGULATING PARADES PROVIDING FOR PROHIBITING TIME OF PARADES PROVIDING ROUTE OF PARADES; PROVIDING A RESIDENCY REQUIREMENT; AUTHORIZING THE CITY COUNCIL TO RECEIVE APPLICATIONS AND GRANT PERMITS PROVIDING STANDARDS FOR ISSUANCE THEREOF; PROVIDING FOR A CASH DEPOSIT; PROVIDING FOR NOTICE OF REJECTION; PRESCRIBING DUTIES OF PERMITTEES; MAKING IT UNLAWFUL TO CONDUCT A PARADE WITHOUT PERMIT AND REQUIRING COMPLIANCE WITH PERMIT CONDITIONS AND APPLICABLE LAWS AND ORDINANCES; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY AND REPEALING ALL ORDINANCES OR PARTS OF ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT HEREWITH. The ordinance was read the third time and Councilman Johnson moved that the ordinance be finally passed. The motion, seconded by Councilman Atkison, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Noes: Councilmen Atkison, Johnson, MacCorkle, Price Councilmen Gage, Janes, Mayor LaRue The Mayor announced that the ordinance had been finally passed. May 21, 1970 _ CITY OF AUSTIN. TEXAS ORDINANCE REGULATING SALE OF LITERATURE TO MINORS Councilman Gage reported he had communicated with each of the Council members by letter enclosing a copy of an ordinance drafted by the Legal Staff, stating this matter came within the purview of the Council with whatever means necessary to protect the young people.

EXISTING AND PROPOSED POLICIES- PERSONNEL POLICY NEPOTISM The City Manager, Mr. Andrews, reported on the Nepotism Policy covering employment. The policy would not be retroactive nor affect promotions. The Council took no action on the amended policy, but asked that it be placed on the Agenda the following week. AGENDA DISTRIBUTION Mr. Andrews, City Manager, stated that when any citizen wanted a copy of the printed agenda, if he would supply a self-addressed, stamped envelope, he would be mailed a copy of the agenda. PRELIMINARY REPORT ON WATER POLLUTION The City Manager, Mr. Andrews, reported he had sent a report to the Council based on a letter of April 29, from the Texas Water Quality Board which called attention to four specific conditions that needed correcting. These four May 21, 1970 CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS have either been corrected, or are in the process. He suggested creating a "Sub" Department to supervise creek maintenance and surveillance, control of general policing, maintaining creek banks and beds, inspection, control of discharge in the distribution system and other environmental factors. He had been working to consolidate these operations under one sub-department. He stated by Monday, they hoped to have a Health Officer named. Councilman Price was concerned about having a department to hold responsible for all of these activities, and stated he would like to look at the plan. RECOGNITION OF MR.
