The Mayor opened the matter of the Shuttle Bus situations: (1) the "open door policy" on Route 4, and (2) the extension of Route 3 to accomodate the area around the LBJ Library day and night. Councilman Friedman moved the Council adopt the extended operations on Route No. 3 around the LBJ Library; and on Route No. 4, an "open door policy" = CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS September 16, 1971 893 on Speedway. The motion, seconded by Councilman Love, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Dryden, Nichols, Love, Lebermann, Friedman, Handcox, Mayor Butler Noes: None The Traffic Engineer, Mr. Ternus, stated that intermediary stops can be made between the University and the Intramural Field, but these designated stops must be submitted to him by October 1. Shuttle Bus Be Permitted to Transport Dependents of Students MRS. JUNE SCHARMEN explained the problems of a student with a young child to be transported, and no available transportation for the dependent. MR. RON GIBSON, 1107 B Brackenridge Apartments noted the petition filed with the Council on September 15, by residents of student housing asking that all residents of married student housing and dependents be permitted to ride the shuttle bus. The other Transit Company was too costly, and it just did not go where the students wanted to go, and in a time in which they could operate. Mr. Gibson stated they were willing to pay a reasonable fee for the dependents' privilege to ride the bus, noting, however, that the Faculty and Staff did not pay any fees. Councilman Friedman reviewed figures relative to the number of married students and children, approximating 10,000 sales of shuttle bus identification cards. At a $6.00 a semester, or about $18.00 a year, $180,000 a year would be paid for dependents. This could be applied against the subsidy the City is paying to the Austin Transit. Mr. Joe Pinelli, Chairman of the Shuttle Bus Committee at the University, read the motion which was voted unanimously, that the dependents, wives, and husbands of students should be allowed to use the University shuttle bus system; that the same be identified by a standard University of Texas identification card, that this card should be purchased from the Bursar at a charge not to exceed $10 per card per semester; that the University should transfer to the City of Austin from $3.00 to $9.00 of the total fee collected for each card. Discussion ensued at this point. MISS LAURA FARRARY, representing the cooperative day care center, spoke for single parents, who are paying for the shuttle bus service but cannot use it as their little ones cannot ride. Most of the children are under 2 years of age, and some are babes. She did not think they should pay more than a student, particularly when they are not taking up a seat. MRS. DONALD FIEGEL inquired if taxpaying citizens were prohibited from riding the shuttle bus. She was advised if one did not have a University ID card, one was not permitted on the shuttle bus. MISS JUDY CUNNINGHAM, a senior law student, expressed concern about the closed door policy on Route 4, and referred to a petition signed by 600 students. This had been voted on earlier in the day, she was told. Mayor Butler was anxious to give relief to the students. The City Attorney stated the bus ordinance could be amended. _ CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS September 16, 1971 894 ! し C Councilman Friedman moved that the Council set for public hearing discussion on the motion that dependents of students and faculty and staff at the University either being wife or husband and children be charged $7.00 per person per semester to use the shuttle, with that money being collected to be paid to the City of Austin to be applied to City subsidy of the Austin Transit authority, with the following conditions: that the University of Texas, in its wise decision, not charge more than the actual cost of issuing the cards and processing them, which is apparently $1.00 or $1.50, to try and keep the cost to these dependents as low as possible; in addition, that children under the age of two years that are carried on the bus by their parents, guardian, or whatever, will not be required to have a card; and that any student, dependent, child, faculty, staff, or their dependents and children who desire to ride the shuttle bus must present that identification card on request from the driver to show that they have the privilege to ride that bus. The motion, seconded by Councilman Nichols, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Dryden, Nichols, Love, Lebermann, Friedman, Handcox, Noes: None Mayor Butler In conclusion, Mayor Butler pointed out to the students that an Austin taxpayer sending his child to public school pays $24 for the same period, if his child rides the Austin Transit Bus. Councilman Nichols moved the Council instruct the City Manager to return to the old system as it was three or four weeks ago, until this ordinance can be passed. The motion, seconded by Councilman Love, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Nichols, Love, Lebermann, Friedman, Handcox, Mayor Butler Noes: None Not in Council Room when Roll was called: Councilman Dryden TAX APPEAL Mr. Charles E. Nemir represented himself, the Nemir Estate, and the lessors who pay the taxes. He had appealed to the Board of Equalization in 1970, as he found a discrepancy in the amount per square foot of his land; that the long term lease until 1984 at $650.00 a month is comprised of these two pieces of property and represents $96,000 fair market value which is high. His private appraiser came up with a fair market value of $82,500 in 1970. The third contention is the triangularly shaped lot, on which the Board reduced the evaluation by $2,000. The Tax Assessor, Mr. Jack Klitgaard, reported this is an appeal from the value placed on the property in 1970, and an appeal from the Tax Board of Equalization. The tax figure represents the Department's opinion of the fair market value on January 1, 1970, and all tax vactors were considered in assigning this value. He displayed properties on a map, pointing out the sales of various properties, compared to this property which has a $6.25 square foot value, and which is less than most of the listed sales. After a thorough discussion and comparison on the various factors, Councilman Dryden moved that the value be established at $82,500. The motion, seconded by Councilman Love, failed to carry by the following vote: し L September 16, 1971 895 =CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS Ayes: Councilmen Dryden and Love Noes: Councilmen Nichols, Lebermann, Friedman, Handcox, Mayor Butler After further discussion, Councilman Nichols moved the Council vote to uphold the Tax Department in the appraisals of this property, subject to the relief given by the Board of Equalization as shown below: Assessed Value Parcel No. 2-1502-0902, Lot 3 and South 97.86 feet average Lot 4, Block 4, Outlot 68, Division D, 2808 Guadalupe.

Land Improvements Total * $ 9,920 $ 1,640 $11,560* (This figure includes the adjustment made by the Board of Equalization) The motion, seconded by Councilman Handcox, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Nichols, Lebermann, Friedman, Handcox, Mayor Butler Noes: Councilmen Dryden and Love The Council recessed until 2:00 Ρ.Μ. The Council resumed its Regular Meeting at 2:00 P.M. Councilman Nichols absent for this half of the meeting. ΑΝΝΕΧΑΤΙON ORDINANCE The Council had before it the final passage of an ordinance annexing 21.7 acres, Theodore Bissel League, within the extraterritorial limits of Sunset Valley. The City Attorney reported there was no agreement reached between the City of Austin and Sunset Valley, thus probably forcing the matter in the Court. The Council informally agreed that the City Attorney negotiate some settlement on extraterritorial jurisdiction, on the following: 21.7 acres of unplatted land out of the Theodore Bissel League. (Initiated by City--a revision of an earlier area to be annexed which contained 29.5 acres; Village of Sunset Valley wanted a buffer zone) C CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS September 16, 1971 896 SPEED ZONES Mayor Butler introduced the following ordinance: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTIONS 21-41 AND 21-42 OF THE CODE OF THE CITY OF AUSTIN, 1967, MAKING CERTAIN DELETIONS AND ADDITIONS TO SAID SECTIONS, THEREBY DECLARING THE MAXIMUM PRIMA FACIE SPEED LIMITS UPON CERTAIN STREETS AND HIGHWAYS WITHIN THE CORPORATE CITY LIMITS OF THE CITY OF AUSTIN, PURSUANT TO AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE "UNIFORM ACT REGULATING TRAFFIC ON HIGHWAYS" (VERNON'S ANN.

REPORT ON AUSTIN TRANSIT Mr. Bill Harrison, Auditor, made a financial report on the Austin Transit Corporation statement. Referring to the July report, he had noted the maintenance had not decreased as it should have as compared with the month of June. He explained this was due to more hours by the laborers; however, with the exception of adding two students for two months there was no increase in employees. In computing the accrued payroll at the end of July, there had been a $924.40 error, resulting in an overstatement of expense for July. Mr. Harrison explained the formula of arriving at the amount the City would pay the Company. This error ) _ CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS- September 16, 1971 897 would not affect the City's payment; but if not corrected, the year end figures would be inaccurate. After a review of the provisions of the agreement, and of the financial statements, Mayor Butler noted if the trend continued as it is, the City probably would not owe the Company an adjustment at the end of the year in addition to the subsidy it is paying. Mayor Butler lead in a discussion of auditing the maintenance charges, and verifying the repair bills currently, rather than waiting for the year-end audit. He again emphasized the need of a physical audit of the repair invoices and substantiating the maintenance records. He asked if a report could be made by next week, bringing some of the invoices in so that the Council could review a few. APPROPRIATION TO AUSTIN TRANSIT CORPORATION FOR TRANSIT SERVICE - DURING JULY Mayor Butler introduced the following ordinance: AN ORDINANCE APPROPRIATING FUNDS TO BE EXPENDED TO AUSTIN TRANSIT CORPORATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH CONTRACT DATED MARCH 26, 1971, CONCERNING THE OPERATION OF A TRANSIT SYSTEM; AND DECLARING AN EMERGENCY.

The motion, seconded by Councilman Dryden, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Noes: Absent: Councilmen Dryden, Handcox, Love, Lebermann, Mayor Butler Councilman Friedman Councilman Nichols The Mayor announced that the ordinance had been finally passed.

Mayor Butler read the conditions under which permission could be given. Mr. Berger was familiar with the details, and was told the Council would hold him responsible for all items listed. Councilman Dryden emphasized the cleaning up of the area, being sure it was well done, and he promised to check into this early in the morning after the festival. Mr. Berger listed his co-sponsors as the Ecology Action, KRMH, and others. The Deputy City Manager, Mr. Davidson, recommended if the Council granted permission that Mr. Berger meet with the Parks and Recreation Director, and work out an agreement on these items crowd control, sanitation, clean up, etc. Councilman Friedman moved the Council grant the request for the Rock Music Concert in Zilker Park on September 26, 1971, in accordance with the request of Mr. Berger.

Listed were requests for transportation for the Craigwood area; for street cleaning; street lights; police patrol for speeding; for speed limit signs and stop signs; for lowering the speed limit from 30 miles per hour to 20 or 25 miles per hour, or that rough spots be placed in the road.

He told the Council he had made a utility deposit but was not receiving any interest. It was explained to Mr. Walker that no citizen drew interest on his deposits. Mayor Pro-tem Love suggested that Mr. Walker take his list of grievances to the City Manager. The City Manager then was asked to get a report by next Thrusday. Councilman Dryden suggested that Mr. Walker follow the advice of the Police Department and file against whoever was violating the speeding laws. Mr. Dan Davidson, Deputy City Manager, said the report would be compiled as requested by the Council. He responded to Mr. Walker, recalling correspondence from him and the City Manager to Mr. Walker. His report would show most of the items he had mentioned previously as well as today had either been taken care of or Mr. Walker was told why they could not be. He suggested to Mr. Walker that he submit an additional list of the items he was certain had not been corrected; and if he had anything specific to add, that also would be included in the report.
