SEWER TAP Councilman Nichols noted this payment for the tap for Mr. Wayne B. Talley for property located in Travis Williamson County Water Improvement District #1, on Lot 4, Block F of the Angus Valley Subdivision was in cash, and he asked if letters of credit were not acceptable. The Deputy City Manager, Mr. Dan Davidson, stated he would work up a schedule for the Council. Councilman Nichols moved the Council adopt a resolution authorizing City Forces to make this installation of a sewer tap. The motion, seconded by Councilman Dryden, carried by the following vote: Nichols Ayes: Mayor Pro Tem Love, Councilmen Lebermann, Friedman, Handcox, Dryden, Noes: None Not in Council Room when Roll was called: Mayor Butler REPORT ON PENDING ZONING CASES. Mr. Richard Lillie reported that 200 owners had been notified of their respective zoning cases which have been pending over six months, and the first group would be before the Council about June 1st, for dismissal or continuance. BULL CREEK SEWER LINE Mr. Richard Baker, represented the developers of the land which will be served by lift stations #1 and #2, and the force main line in Bull Creek area. He reviewed the various phases of the development as to this date. Lift station No. 1 will serve Great Hills; and No. 2, Vista West Development. Constructed. also will be the force main line. The lift stations are temporary developments pending completion of the crosstown tunnel approximately three years hence. Mr. Baker gave detailed accounts of the numbers of connections, and storage capacity within the wet well; that by July 1, 1972, ten units will be hooked up to the lift station, meaning a storage capacity in excess of six hours; in July 1974, with 140 units, there would be a storage capacity of two hours. At the maximum there would be a storage capacity of about 36 minutes before overflow. The longest "outtage" was 45 minutes, caused by a train derailment. Other than that, the longest outtage lasted seven minutes. Baker, Jones and Crow feel _ CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 269 March 16, 1972 certain requirements requested by the residents are unnecessary considering the storage capacity and considering the outtage in the electrical system, which will even be improved when Loop 360 lines are in place. Mr. Baker took the request submitted by the residents at the meeting on March 9th, and listed each one, and the developers' reaction to each. He pointed out again the design of the system was such that the pumps could be increased to handle more capacity; and if there is a delay in the construction of the tunnel, they would have no objections to modifying the plans to serve Lakewood Park. Mr. Elbert Hooper, representing the Lakewood Park residents, questioned Mr. Bryant Currington, Engineer for Baker, Jones and Crow, on various items. Mr. Hooper spoke on the lift station issue and on behalf of Bull Creek and its immedlate future development and activities. He stated that Mr. Baker's group was coming to something that they could accept, but he continued expression of their views the criteria for sites of lift stations -- accessibility, potential nusiance aspects, not being subject to flooding, continuous operation and emergency treatments and alternate electrical loops, or a standby generator or a holding capacity in their system, and telemetering. Mr. Baker stated they would get with their engineers, the Water and Waste- water Engineer, Mr. Johnson, and Mr. Hooper, and discuss a telemetering system that would be satisfactory. BULL CREEK Mr. Hooper spoke on the sewer line in Bull Creek proper, asking the Council to direct its staff to consider alternatives. The Mayor stated the Council had directed that the Staff explore the alternatives to the construction of a major sewer line in the Bull Creek area and the cost of each alternative. Mr. Don Berman, Sierra Club, brought the discussion to a conclusion. Councilman Nichols moved that adequate telemetering service be provided by the developers at Lift Stations 1 and 2; that the elevation of the overflow line shall be raised from 611' to 614' and return to the first manhole which shall be bolted; and the assurance that there will be at least 1000' of storage pipe, including that pipe leading to the first manhole; that the area surrounding the lift stations shall be seeded with grass; that the number of connections to this system should be monitored to prevent overloading, and concur in the statement that their construction calls for water tight pipe for water and sanitary sewer lines beneath the water. The motion, seconded by Councilman Handcox, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Mayor Pro Tem Love, Councilmen Lebermann, Handcox, Mayor Butler, Noes: Councilmen Dryden, Nichols None Not in Council Room when Roll was called: Councilman Friedman Mr. O'Neill thanked the Council, and congratulated it for recognizing Bull Creek is to be protected. In working with the new Ecologist, Mr. Stewart Henry, they can protect Bull Creek. LEGACY OF PARKS FUNDS Councilman Handcox moved the Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to submit a final application to the Department of Housing and Urban Development for Legacy of Parks funds totalling $311,000 and agreeing to all March 16, 1972 270 _ CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS standard provisions and conditions of HUD grant awards. The motion, seconded by Councilman Friedman, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilman Nichols, Mayor Pro Tem Love, Councilmen Lebermann, Friedman, Handcox, Mayor Butler, Councilman Dryden Noes: None Councilman Lebermann stated this was a difficult project, and Congressman J. J. Pickle should be commended and heartily thanked publicly for his great yoeman services in getting this done. There has been a fantastic amount of work done on this. ARCHITECTURAL SERVICES Councilman Nichols moved the Council select the following Capital Improvements Project architectural service: CROW & PRINGLE - Second floor addition to the existing buildingWater and Wastewater Treatment, and Construction Engineering - Project No. 4928 (Estimated construction cost is $105,000). The motion, seconded by Councilman Dryden, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Friedman, Handcox, Mayor Butler, Councilmen Dryden, Nichols, Mayor Pro Tem Love, Councilman Lebermann Noes: None Councilman Dryden moved the Council select the following architectural service for the specified Capital Improvements Project: SIMPSON & LACKEY - An addition to the Seaholm Plant to be used as a machine shop by power production personnel - Project No. 3905. (Estimated Construction cost is $85,000).

(Estimated construction cost is $600,000). The motion, seconded by Councilman Dryden, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Mayor Butler, Councilman Dryden, Nichols, Mayor Pro Tem Love, Councilmen Lebermann, Friedman Noes: None Councilman Handcox moved the Council select the following architectural service for the specified Capital Improvements Project: CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS March 16, 1972 271 SCUTTER AND WADSWORTH - Fire Station - a new single story masonry building to house bne engine company with room for expansion - Project No. 8303. (Estimated construction cost is $130,000). The motion, seconded by Councilman Friedman, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Dryden, Nichols, Mayor Pro Tem Love, Councilmen Lebermann, Friedman, Handcox, Mayor Butler Noes: None The item of selecting architectural services for a new single story masonry clubhouse for the Williamson Creek Golf Course Facility - Project No. 8627, (Estimated construction cost is $100,000) was delayed so that additional information might be brought to the Council. It was pointed out that Mr. Allen Tanniguchi had requested in writing that his name for consideration of architectural services for the building at the Airport be deleted, as he was a member of the Planning Commission and wanted to serve his tenure. Mayor Butler suggested that it be called to the attention of the Council when it is considering professional services, if there are any members of the Boards or Commissions involved. FIRE AND EXTENDED COVERAGE Mr. Shackleford and Mr. Allen were present to speak to this insurance program. Mr. Shackelford stated the Austin Association of Insurance Agents has an advisory committee for wiriting the City of Austin insurance program, and it has made certain recommendations which he discussed. He pointed out a correction, stating the premium was on a three year basis. Mr. Allen discussed one recommendation that the City not renew the comprehensive plate glass policy as the catastrophic coverage is already under the fire and extended coverage. Mr. Allen also recommended reviewing the insurance and placing it on statement of values filed and approved by the Board of Insurance as being the recommended values. He pointed out a new general trend of handling municipal insurance. Most of the municipalities expanding like Austin are handled on a blanket basis; but Austin has been handled on an individual basis. He would suggest cutting out the lower valued properties below $25,000; and coupled with a deductible of $25,000 there would probably be much savings. After discussion, Mayor Butler suggested that the Council delay action on this item on the basis of what Mr. Allen had recommended in that perhaps a blanket coverage and then a blanket cut-off point of values would save, and that they visit with the City Manager and the Finance Director, and report back in two weeks. ACQUISITION OF LAND Councilman Nichols -nquired about the determination of the value either as appraised or as to the market value. Mr. Morahan discussed the procedures followed. Councilman Nichols moved the Council adopt a resolution authorizing the acquisition of certain land as follows: _ CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS For Bull Creek Park Lakewood Drive at Bull Creek Jeanne S. Willson (Partial Acquisition) March 16, 1972 272 The motion, seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Love, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilman Nichols, Mayor Pro Tem Love, Councilmen Lebermann, Noes: Handcox, Mayor Butler, Councilman Dryden None Not in Council Room when Roll was called: Councilman Friedman Councilman Nichols moved the Council adopt a resolution authorizing the acquisition of certain land as follows: For MoPac Expressway - Phase 4: 2108 Newfield Lane - Patricia D.

The Council could make a more intelligent decision if it had the amount of land and buildings being rented and their approximate market value. The Mayor stated he would like to make it a policy that any time a lease comes before the Council, that it be accompanied by an appraisal, market value, and the amount of land being leased, buildings, and worth of the improvements. Councilman Lebermann asked aobut property contiguous to Westenfield Park, a partial taking for MoPac, as it appears to be land that will be sold. He asked if it would not be proper to include it in the park land. The Deputy City Manager stated they would look into this. Mr. Morahan pointed out one adjacent lot which was dedicated as a park on the plan, but it was small and is not being used as a park. There is question as to its category. Councilman Lebermann pointed out one of the thrusts of the Outdoor Recreation is the development of some of the smaller parks. i C _ CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS- March 16, 1972 The Mayor stated when the surplus property is being considered for sale, and it is brought before the Council, that Mr. Morahan provide information on when the City acquired the property and what was paid for it. FINAL PASSAGE OF TAXICAB ORDINANCE 273 The Council had before it the third reading for the Taxicab Ordinance to effect an increase in rates. Mrs. Helena Hardcastle again spoke in opposition to the increased rates and a stated age for the taxicabs. She suggested a ten year service for the cabs. Mr. Royal Masset, speaking for the County of Travis People's Party asked for a postponement of the final reading of the taxicab ordinance.. After discussion, Mayor Butler brought up the following ordinance: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 34-18; SECTION 34-27(b); SECTION 34-42(b); SECTION 34-59(b); BY CHANGING THE MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE AGE OF VEHICLES TO BE USED AS TAXICABS, CHANGING THE RATE AND FARE SCHEDULE, AND BY CHANGING THE AMOUNT OF FEES FOR TAXICAB PERMITS.

The motion, seconded by Councilman Friedman, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Mayor Butler, Councilman Nichols, Mayor Pro Tem Love, Councilmen Noes: Lebermann, Friedman, Handcox None Not in Council Room when Roll was called: Councilman Dryden The Mayor announced that the ordinance had been finally passed. Deputy City Manager Davidson explained that a great deal of the work which will necessitate the additional people is the result of having to keep proper controls over the moneys the City receives in connection with new Federal grants _ CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS March 16, 1972 274 and in connection with the expanded Capital. Improvement Program which has occurred and will continue to occur in the next 12-18 months. The two persons men- tioned in the collection will help upgrade the City's central records as to the money owed, the paymnets rendered and those outstanding. These people would not be involved in collecting for Brackenridge Hospital. The Director of Finance stated these people will set up and make uniform the procedures of aging accounts and determining the procedures necessary to implement these collections. They will not be door to door collectors. Those people now collecting Brackenridge bills will remain. These will be keeping their books in better shape. REMODELING OF CITY HALL Mayor Butler introduced the following ordinance: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 710909-I TO APPROPRIATE FROM UNAPPROPRIATED GENERAL FUNDS, AND CREDIT TO A CERTAIN DEPARTMENT OF OFFICE SERVICES ACCOUNT, AN AMOUNT TO BE EXPENDED FOR REMODELING EXPENSES; SUS PENDING THE RULE REQUIRING THE READING OF ORDINANCES ON THREE SEPARATE DAYS; AND DECLARING AN EMERGENCY.

The Mayor announced that the ordinance had been finally passed. REMUNERATION TO POLICE WHO USE SPARE TIME TO TESTIFY IN COURT Judge Mace Thurman, Jr., appeared before the Council in the interest of administration of justice, stating this Council has done more to promote the effi- cient administration of justice than of any he knew. There is a problem of utmost urgency in the minds of the people, and the Council has already come forward with a program that is showing results. He commended the Council in its accepting its challenge. He had a suggestion to present, having to do with policemen having to testify in trials of cases. He said a policeman had to know how to testify in court and to be well-prepared. The Police Officer recognizes his duty in this regard, and all of them respond to their summons. The problem is the pay for off-duty police officers while testifying in examining trials, court appearances, before the Grand Jury, and at pre-trial hearings. The present policy is to pay the Police Officer time and half for two hours; or a minimum of two hours. He definitely believed the police officers should be paid for the time they are in court. It is hard work, and is his duty. He requested that the Council inagurate the policy of paying the police officers time and a half for the time they are testifying with a minimum of two hours, from the time they arrive în court to the time they leave, with a minimum of two hours. This is on their off-duty time. _ CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS March 16, 1972 275 Councilman Nichols moved the recommendation be taken into consideration and enacted as a policy of the City of Austin and the officers to be paid accordingly. The motion was seconded by Councilman Lebermann. Councilman Friedman then referred to a memorandum of this date from Chief Miles' Office restating the pay policy. He suggested obtaining the memorandum sent out to the officers yesterday, which was overturned by this memorandum of this date, stating the officer would be paid time and a half for the first two hours and straight time for every hour thereafter. He stated the Council needed to have this memorandum before it. Councilman Nichols restated his motion, moving that the officers be paid on their time off for testifying a minimum of two hours which shall be paid for at the rate of one and a half times their regular pay; any testimony beyond that shall be paid at the rate of one and a half times of their regular pay. motion, seconded by Councilman Lebermann, carried by the following vote: The Ayes: Mayor Butler, Councilmen Dryden, Nichols, Mayor Pro Tem Love, Councilmen Lebermann, Friedman, Handcox Noes: None SANCHEZ STREET PAVING REPORT City Manager Andrews stated the Sanchez Street paving has continued to be a problem for two years. The theory followed by previous Councils was if the general public had no particular interest in paving a certain street, that the property owners along that street should assume responsibility of furnishing right of-way. In this instance there are two out of twon owners who are not interested in dedicating their right-of-way, while others are willing to do so. The problem is either leaving it as under the past policy or, making an exception on this one street, or setting a new policy, where everyone except a few owners cause condemnation, resulting in the City's paying the others on the street. This would be costly to the City. He pointed out other disadvantages in such a policy. He suggested that when a street of this nature has been hanging fire for two years, if the people had agreed to dedicate the land, that it be dedicated free and the others will have to come out of the taxpayers' pocket, and then proceed with the condemnation. Councilman Nichols stated this was the proper procedure and he agreed that two years would be an adequate time. Councilman Nichols moved the City proceed as the City Manager recommended that right of way which has already been given be accepted; and eminent domain proceedings with those who refuse to give the right of way be authorized, and the paving completed. The motion, seconded by Councilman Handcox, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Mayor Pro Tem Love, Councilmen Lebermann, Handcox, Dryden, Nichols Noes: None Not in Council Room when Roll was called: Mayor Butler, Councilman Friedman Councilman Nichols said the same situation exists on South 2nd Street, and asked that this be brought back to the Council. TRANSPORTATION MANAGEMENT CONTRACT Mayor Butler called for further discussion of the Transportation Management contract, including Mr. Clyde Malone, Manager of Austin Transit Corporation; and Messrs. Charles W. Hunter, International Vice-President of Amalgamated Transit CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS 216 March 16, 1972 Union; and Cecil Barnes, Recording Secretary and Treasurer of Local 1091. Не atated they were trying to proceed as rapidly as possible to get the application approved so that Austin could expand its bus service. He reviewed various aspects of the management contract to be certain all parties were în agreement. Mayor Butler emphasized the three year contract which would make the management contract run concurrently with the Union contract. Mr. Charles W. Hunter answered that they thought that the contract's being concurrent might work well with the renewals; however, they would not refuse to go forward with the 13-C and would assist in any way possible in getting the grant application through regardless of what the dates are. They do have some preference, but he emphasized they were not going to do anything or throw any stumbling blocks in the path. It was stated they could live with the three year term. Councilman Nichols suggested that the Union be recognized by the terms of the contract. Mayor Butler pointed out the terms of the contract recognized the Unfon and the contract includes the 13-C provision. He stated the Union was satisfied that they are well-protected. Mayor Pro Tem Love moved the Council approve the management contract as recommended by the Staff, and through the co-operation and agreement with the representatives who met with the Council today (Messrs. Charles W. Hunter, Cecil Barnes, and Clyde Malone) and this is the three year contract. ed by Councilman Handcox, carried by the following vote: The motion, secondAyes: Councilman Handcox, Mayor Butler, Councilmen Dryden, Nichols, Mayor Noes: Pro Tem Love, Councilman Lebermann None Not in Council Room when Roll was called: Councilman Friedman WATER & SEWER EXTENSION STUDY COMMITTEE REPORT Mr. Tom Bradfield presented the report on Water-Sewer Extensions in behalf of the Study Committee. He stated the more they went into this study, the more they seemed to realize that many of the things that Austin does has really been done quite well and with a great deal of success. With some trepidation, they made this report as they believe it is, not particularly imaginative or innovative and in it can be seen a great deal of what has already been done. Mayor Butler concurred with the Committee in what the status quo is good. Mayor Butler expressed concern in pledging the credit of the City of Austin utility system for the benefit of running utility lines outside the City limits to non-taxpaying users. Although when they hook on to the system, they are paying for the utility lines, but they are not paying their pro-rata share of Brackenridge Hospital, Library, Police and Fire Departments and the many other entities that running a City requires. Mr. Bradfield stated the report included the intent that these areas be annexed The City could ill afford not to annex these areas regardless as the City would be fringed with satellite towns which must be avoided at all costs. The Mayor stated the formula called for those receiving the service paying för them; and when they came into the City they would resume the same posture that other utility users had. He asked if there were concern that those will have paid 20% of the line at that point in time whereas someone in theCity did not pay it? Mr. Bradfield emphasized that policy did not provide mandatory annexation and the Committee thought that was very important -- the protection of the boundaries of the City. This area is one in which a great deal of future development will take place. • Mr. W. T. Williams, Jr., listed two or three places where the City had placed lines outside the City -- Williamson Creek and Little Walnut Creek Valley. The line extended to FM 1325 to serve practically no property that was in the City. CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS March 16, 1972 277 Councilman Nichols stated this is a good report and the Council needs to study it. Mr. Russell Fish, a member of the Committee, pointed out the questions the Council had asked the Committee as to "how much of the financial obligation was the developer to take?" Mr. Fish did not concur in the recommendation stating the individual committee members did not agree with each other. It is a real problem and these men are sincere. Mr. Horsefeldt spoke generally about allowing different cities to set up around the City of Austin. Mayor Butler thanked the Committee for its diligent work and study on this report. FIVE YEAR CONTRACT AUTHORIZED Mayor Butler introduced the following ordinance: AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING THE DEPUTY CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO A CERTAIN REFUND CONTRACT WITH MISSOURI IMPROVEMENT COMPANY, J. E. ANGST, PRESIDENT AND CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD; AND DECLARING AN EMERGENCY. Councilman Nichols moved the Council waive the requirement for three readings, declare an emergency and finally pass the ordinance effective immediately. The motion, seconded by Councilman Handcox, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Lebermann, Handcox, Mayor Butler, Councilmen Dryden, Noes: None Nichols, Mayor Pro Tem Love Present but not voting: Councilman Friedman The Mayor announced that the ordinance had been finally passed. REQUEST FOR VARIANCE OF BUILDING ELEVATIONS Mr. M. K. Parsons appeared before the Council, outlining an honest error he had made on an elevation, stating he had subdivided a small tract of land in East Austin which the Council, in previous years, had set an elevation construction level on. He filed a set of plans drawn by an architect showing the elevations, etc., but the men who formed the concrete read the elevations off the pins 80 designated on the plat. These were grade elevations rather than pin elevations; therefore, two of the slabs are low -- one a little over six inches low; the other about six inches low. The City Inspector OK'd the forms. It was an error on his part and on the inspector's. City Attorney, Don Butler, suggested having an instrument executed by Mr. Parsons, and by the City whereby it would be acknowledged that this had been constructed at an elevation of so many inches, and the document be placed on record so that it would be a covenant running with the land. Councilman Nichols moved the Council grant the request subject to the approval of the City Attorney's working out this agreement and placing it on record. The motion, seconded by Councilman Dryden, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Lebermann, Handcox, Mayor Butler, Councilmen Dryden, Noes: Nichols, Mayor Pro Tem Love None Not in Council Room when Roll was called: Councilman Friedman =CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS March 16, 1972 C Μ.Α.Υ.Ο.

The Director of Finance, Mr. Norman Barker, stated the coverage was $1,700,000 on Holly Street Station; $2,700,000 on the Seaholm Plant, and roughly $1,000,000 coverage on the Central Stores which is almost exclusively utility raw materials. This is a three year premium. The motion, seconded Councilman Dryden moved the Council adopt a resolution approving the payment of $9,313.00 for insurance coverage on the utility assets. by Mayor Pro Tem Love, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Mayor Pro Tem Love, Councilmen Lebermann, Friedman, Handcox, Mayor Butler, Councilmen Dryden, Nichols Noes: None USE OF FIESTA GARDENS Mr. Dismukes, speaking in behalf of Mr. Ted White, representing Austin Chamber of Commerce, requested the use of Fiesta Gardens for five nights in May, offering to pay $200 a night, or $1,000.00 for the five nights, with the City's doing a certain amount of the work. Councilman Nichols moved the Council grant the request as submitted with the City preforming a certain amount of work, generally speaking, and receiving $200 a night.

The motion, seconded by Councilman Lebermann, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilman Handcox, Mayor Butler, Councilman Nichols, Mayor Pro Tem Noes: Councilman Dryden Love, Councilman Lebermann Not in Council Room when Roll was called: Councilman Dryden DEL VALLE The City Manager, Mr. Andrews, reported having provided the Council with a proposed contract with the Del Valle School District. The Council has obligated itself to build a line out to the new state park which will run right by this school. The School System says they will advance the money to the City to build this line so the City would not be out any interest on its money.

Mayor Butler stated information would be brought to the Council on this matter. He said the Council was hopefully catching Town Lake in the "nick of time"; and in fairness to the property owners, the Council felt they must put the owners on notice about the change. He said there are some real estate trades going on; and the City Attorney is to bring to the Council some recommendations in the area of creating higher standards zoning, etc. Mayor Butler said Mr. Berman, Mr. Patterson, and Mr. Fish could be a great help to the City Attorney in this line, and they should get with him right away. Again Mayor Butler invited Mr. Patterson and Mr. Berman to get with the City Attorney and work with him and see how they react to some of his suggestions. This will go before the Planning Commission, the Environmental Department and then finally the Council.
