REGULATION AND CONTROL OF HEIGHT OF SIGNS Councilmember Himmelblau introduced an item requesting staff to present options for the regulation and control of the height of signs along I.H. 35 and Loop 360 to protect our scenic routes. She asked City Attorney Harris to address this. Mr. Harris stated, "We have distributed, just this morning...a memo briefly discussing some of the problems regulating the height of signs, particularly along I.H. 35 and Loop 360. It spells out some of the possible options as to how we might regulate the height of signs. Initially one of the problems as far as Loop 360 is concerned is that only a small portion of that is within the city limits and since the city can only regulate within its corporate limits as far as sign height limits, that's a special problem. Currently there exists some spacing regulations concerning signs along I.H. 35 both in the City Ordinance and under Federal Regulations in cooperation with the state. The regulation is for spacing within 600 feet of the highway and basically 500 feet apart, but no height regulations. Currently, the height of signs in Austin is regulated under the Zoning Ordinance under the Height and Area regulations, just as all other CITY OF AUSTIN. TEXAS July 13, 1978 structures are thereby regulated. For example, in the 1st Height and Area a building can be up to 35' and likewise a sign can be up to 35'. Within the context of the existing height and area regulations one approach would be to take a particülar look at the zoning along I.H. 35 and Loop 360 and make sure the property bears no greater désignation than 1st Height and Area. That would only keep signs from being above 35'. To regulate the height of signs outside of Height and Area regulations, there are some approaches that could be taken. One would be to pass a special ordinance dealing with the areas which have been set aside for scenic or other reasons and désignate those areas in which signs cannot be higher than any particular limitation. We could start on that approach by taking an inventory and define the areas that we are concerned with...then write the ordinance and consider what sort of limitations and regulations, including height limitations and regulations might want to be applied to that particular area." Councilmember Cooke stated, "The area of Congress Avenue should also be considered in the deliberation." He pointed out that Mayor Pro Tem Mullen, who who is absent today, also shares that concern. Mr. Harris said that such an ordinance would tie in nicely within any visual corridors in Austin. Mr. Harris went on to say that currently we have provisions in the City Code that deal to some extent with signs and that chapter could be amended and address the problem, although there are some benefits in dealing with it in a comprehensive ordinance. He told Council that if they would like to proceed along any of his suggested approaches he would be happy to work with the Building Inspection Department and the Planning Department in working up some particular ordinance to present to Council. Councilmember Himmelblau stated that she is present particularly interested in a scenic easement and that perhaps they should think about a corridor annexation along Loop 360. Mayor McClellan suggested that, since they just received a memo concerning the options, they should take time to study them. Councilmember Himmelblau said she wanted to look at the possibility of an interim ordinance and maybe bringing the committee back together again that worked so well on the sign ordinance. Mr. R.V. Miller, former member of the no longer existing sign committee, said that the sign company he owns has refused to build anything on the west side of the upper deck of I.H. 35 because they do not want to disturb the view of the Capitol and University. Councilmember Himmelblau said, "Mayor, I'd like to ask that the sign committee be re-activated and maybe some additions. Maybe we could do this next week?" The Mayor answered, "I think that would be very smart." STATUS REPORT ON ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Mr. Davidson presented a Status Report on Economic Development. He said that it would be presented in three parts. Mr. Lillie, Director of Planning, will discuss the Schematic Plan and the Economic Development Task Force, and he will discuss the Economic Development Office. Mr. Lillie reported as follows on the Schematic Plan: The work to date has consisted of relating the Plan to the City Council's Goals and objectives for their 1977-79 term, the Austin Tomorrow Goals Program and _ CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS July 13, 1978 the Comprehensive Plan. The program is intended to demonstrate how the economic revitalization goals and objectives adopted by the City Council can be implemented. Considerations have been given to seven additional factors: aruas 1. Basic Premise proposes several alternative roles for the central city based upon a realistic view of current economic trends. 2. Revitalization Strategies identifying a set of overall strategies for the private and public sectors to follow in a joint revitalizatiotion effort. - 3. Existing Redevelopment Plans and Potential a review of existing private and public redevelopment plans in the central city and a look at the potentials for redevelopment which the central city currently possesses. 4. Redevelopment Constraints an analysis of the factors which act to prevent constructive change in the central city. 5. A Strategy Plan - suggesting a set of strategies for specific subareas of the central city. 6. Proposed Redevelopment Districts identification of areas within the central city which have the need and potential for redevelopment. 7. An Analysis of Three Proposed Redevelopment Districts an in-depth look at the most significant sub-areas of the central city in need of redevelopment. The approach taken in the Plan is to establish a flexible context, or framework, within which specific public and private projects will develop. The basis of this context is a set of public and private strategies designed to further the goal of economic revitalization in the central city. This plan will be ready for presentation to the City Council by September 1, 1978. Three other projects are being coordinated with this program. The first includes a Circulation Plan for vehicles and pedestrians, and the Gateway concept being undertaken by Mr. Ternus and the Urban Transportation staff. Second, an Overall Economic Development Plan (O.E.D.P.) is being prepared by the Economic Development Task force appointed by the Council with staff assistance by the Planning Department. The Special Impact Area covered by this plan includes East Austin, Montopolis, the southern portion of the downtown area, and an area south of Town Lake bounded by South First, Ben White Blvd. and South Congress. The Plan centers on job creation as its highest priority. Finally, the Planning Commission, in their review of the 1978-83 Capital Improvements Program, specifically considered investment-oriented projects in the central city area to help provide public incentive for private development. These three related studies will also be before the City Council by September. Mr. Lillie's report on Economic Development Task Force is as follows: The City Council appointed an eighteen-member Economic Development Task Force on March 2, 1978 for the purpose of preparing an Overall Economic Development Plan (OEDP). The OEDP is a required element for eligibility in several financial assistance programs of the U.S. Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration. CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS July 13, 1978 Since that time, the Task Force has had five meetings to organize the plan document and establish committees. In early May the chairman resigned from the Task Force and has been replaced by Mr. Chester Snyder, who was elected on July 5th. At the present time the Task Force has two vacancies. The plan is organized according to the requirements of EDA and contains six chapters: Chapter 1 describes the organization duties and staffing of the OEDP Committee. Chapter II presents a concise history of past economic development efforts with the goal of providing some insight into current economic problems. Chapter III is an analysis of the city's economy with particular attention to the pockets of poverty portion of the city. This area is known as the Special Impact Area (SIA). The analysis includes population, labor force, economy and problems. Chapter IV is an evaluation of the potentials for Economic Development, particularly in the SIA. It indicates strengths and weaknesses in the general economy of the city, sets goals for the program and examines potentials to be capitalized on. Chapter V is the Development Strategy, which chooses projects and programs to build on the strengths of the SIA and correct the problems of the area. This must cover at least three years in planning, contain an investment strategy for all resources available to the city and a one year budget. Chapter VI is the city's plan for implementation. It must set forth the precise actions to be taken to implement the strategies, plans and projects in the OEDP. Thus far the Task Force has reviewed Chapters II and III and is working on Chapter IV. A committee has been established to develop strategies and projects and report to the Task Force. The Task Force is planning on completing its work in time for the City Council to act on the plan by mid-September so the plan may be submitted to EDA for review and approval. The Task Force is working with EDA to assure the plan meets all their requirements. Mr. Davidson, City Manager, pointed out that the new chairman of the Task Force is Mr. Chester Snyder. He gave his report on the Economic Development Office as follows: City Council authorized the creation of an Austin Economic Development Office on March 23, 1978. $43,708 was approved as a budget for the remainder of the current fiscal year. $197,020 was proposed as the budget for 1978-79. A four and one-half year fiscal note estimated that $833,067 would be required. Council reduced that amount to $733,067. I recommended that the office be opened on an interim basis by May 15th and that a permanent office be established by October 1, 1978. CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS July 13, 1978 It is essential that a City of Austin representative be available to coordinate implementation of our Economic Development Plan, meet with property owners and potential investors, and carry out other components of the Council's Economic Development policy. I am serving that capacity, with specific duties delegated to others on my staff. 1. I believe that the office can open by October 1, 1978. In the meantime, a number of advantages have been served by the delay: We now have twenty individuals who have expressed an interest in administering the program. We need the schematic plan, scheduled for Council presentation by September 1, 1978, in order to answer questions that are being posed. The time since March 23rd has allowed us to give more detailed study to the responsibilities that the City of Austin will have under a viable economic effort. I now have more confidence in our ability to initiate action and to respond to the initiatives of the private sector. Several options have emerged that should be considered by City Council in addition to an Economic Development Office. Alternatives: 1. Proceed as originally planned, with City Manager appointing an individual to administer the Economic Development Office effective Octo- ber 1, 1978. Qualified firms would be engaged to conduct specialized market studies based on recommendations within the schematic plan. 2. Contract with an urban planning firm to refine the schematic plan and recommend an overall development strategy for consideration of City Council. 3. Contract with a development oriented firm to determine Austin's CBD Economic Development potential; design development objectives; prepare a development program for consideration of Council; and establish contacts with prospective investors, lendors, developers and tenants. Any of these options (or a combination of all three) can be accomplished within the fiscal projections used in budgeting for this effort. I recommend that City Council take these ideas under consideration. I will bring a firm proposal to to you in about three weeks. "One final point," Mr. Davidson said, "the more people that I talk with about the potential of Austin's central city, the more excited I become about the fact that this program will succeed. We may have more to begin with, more to start with as far as a viable program is concerned, than any city in the nation. We have one of the healthiest economies, some of the most beautiful natural features, some outstanding buildings constructed in the last 5-8 years... _ CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS July 13, 1978 there's no reason why we can't have an absolutely astounding economic development program, all resulting from a policy adopted by the Austin City Council in October, February and March." Councilmember Trevino said, "Mr. Manager, I would like for you to include when you being the proposal back to Council in 3 weeks, the recommendation of what's to become of the Office of Minority Business Affairs. As we all know the involvement of minority businesses will be a very important part of the development plan, so I'd appreciate your giving some recommendations of what you have in mind." Councilmember Cooke said he supports a plan that would develop over a 20-year period. This, he thinks, would bring the support of the private sector rather than the Council in the late 1980's and it is essential. He believes that the schematic plan addresses itself to that, as well as what Urban Transportation is doing. He said that he is concerned whether or not there are people dynamic enough to take over the economic development office who will understand the need of the private sector as well as understand the intricate working of the mumicipality, He said that for the amount of money the city will be able to offer such an individual, he is not certain that such a person can be found. As a result he felt that an urban planning firm, or a development oriented firm should be used to analyze what has already been done and have the established contacts with people throughout the country to make some of the projects happen in the time frame already initiated. Mr. Davidson commented, "There's another indicator we're finding around the country. The Council spoke initially that you nust have involvement of th private enterprise and if all all the the city' city's actions in the first few months and the first couple of fyears succeed. There is another indicator of that achievement. That is that at the end of a 3-4 year period you have succeeded in getting private enterprise involved if you no longer need an Economic Development Office as a municipal government entity...that will be taken over by them, in some way by private enterprise.... either a local development corporation, or whatever. That possibility needs to be weighed as a factor in looking at the alternatives I am placing before the Council today. Mayor McClellan thanked Mr. Davidson for his report, and the departments involved in the study and planning. 1978 AUSTIN AQUA FESTIVAL ACTIVITIES Mr. Russell Fish, President & Mr. Mike Metschan, Commodore of the 1978 Aqua Festival, appeared before Council to request approval of the following activities for the 1978 Austin Aqua Festival as follows: a.

Mayor McClellan commented that she thought it is just the opposite. PUBLIC HEARING ON SIGN ORDINANCE Mayor McClellan opened the public hearing scheduled for 10:00 A.M. to consider amending Chapter 3 of the Austin City Code (Sign Ordinance) to provider an appeal procedure. CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS July 13, 1978 Mr. Lonnie Davis, Director, Building Inspection, appeared before Council to state that in October of 1977 some of the local sign contractors appeared before Council and requested that an appeal procedure be built into Chapter 3 of the City Code governing signs. "As you are already aware the sign regulations are governed and controlled in two sections of the City Code, Chapter 3 and Chapter 45. Chapter 45 being the Zoning Ordinance which really has to do with th the use of the sign and the placement of the sign. Chapter 3 actually controls the mechanics of the sign. The ordinance we have under consideration this morning is a result of the study by a Council appointed sign committee that worked for approximately a year to a year and a half on a new sign ordinance and enlarged the provisions and requirements of Chapter 3. IIt has been working real well during the intervening two year period. But, during this time there have been instances where due to a provision in the ordinance sign contractors have felt they needed an appeal procedure and somewhere to go. I will not attemptttorread you all the requirements of Chapter 3, but some of the provisions governing governing Chapter 3 regulate the size of on-premise signs, regulates the size of lighted size of lighted of flashing trols signs signs, and establishes structural requirements rements for signs. It also controls over public property, prohibits signs of combustible material exceeding 75' in a fire zone, controls the location and removal of political signs, it requires the licensing and bonding of sign contractors, and defines and controls the use of various flags and banners. "As a result of the sign contractors appearing before City Council we did meet with several of the local sign contractors, attempting to establish a manner to the appeal provision of this ordinance. It was generally determined that rather than attempt to establish an entirely separate appeals board that the best vehicle would be to use the Board of Adjustment. But, to effectively draft the ordinance in such a fashion that the Board of Adjustment, while they are hearing this appeal would not be effectively the Board of Adjustment as we understand it, which is a state statutory created board. In other words, there would still be a provision whereby actions of the Board of Adjustment pertaining to a sign appeal could be carried on and appealed to the City Council. With this in mind we feel that there also have been circumstances where they were unusual or unique and should be some appeal provision for any ordinance. So, we effecetively support the ordinance. It has been reviewed by the Legal Department and was drafted by the Legal Department." (Clerk did not receive a copy.) BRUCE Killmer, Modern Signs, appeared before Council to state that he was one of the men who approached them several months ago regarding the appeal procedure. He said that to the best of his knowledge, the sign ordinance as it now stands, is the only ordinance wherby there isn't some additional appeal method that would be open to whoever is governed by that particular ordinance to appeal further to see if some restitution might be made under the extenuating circumstances of a particular location. Mr. Killmer said he felt the appeal procedure proposed is better than what now exists and will adequately service the needs of the sign user being able to identify and advertise effectively for customers to purchase their service or product. Most of the requirements requested by the sign contractors will be met by the adoption on of the proposed appeal procedure, otherwise, there is a further appeal to Council should a decision go against the applicant. Mr. Killmer approved of the proposed amendment. product. _CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS July 13, 1978 Councilmember Cooke moved that the Council close the public hearing and adopt an amendment to Chapter 3fof the Austinicity Code (Sign Ordinance) to provide an appeal procedure, as proposed.
