ROB LIPMAN, representing Los Altos Homeowner's Association, appeared before Council to discuss a re-evaluation of local residents' petition for disannexation due to City's continuing inability to provide adequate service levels. He told Council their case is still pending before District Court. He cited examples of inadequate police and fire protection for their area, when response time to an emergency due to a break-in of a house was one hour; and slow response time by the Fire Department when a marina was on fire. Mr. Lipman requested Council to provide their area with adequate service or disannex them or remove them from the tax rolls.

All Councilmembers agreed on Option 2 and Mr. Bayless is to come back with an RFP. CREEDMOOR ANNEXATION Mr. Albert DeLaRosa, Assistant City Attorney, reported on the petition for annexation of the Creedmoor, Texas, area as follows: "On December 18, 1980, the attorney for the residents of the Creedmoor area, Mr. Don Bird, appeared before the City Council to request that the City consent to the incorporation of the town of Creedmoor within Austin's Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ). State law, Article 974a, Section 8 Vernon's Annotated Civil Statutes, requires that such consent be obtained before a town may be incorporated in the ETJ of another city. Such consent was denied by the Council. State law goes on to provide that, in the event such consent is denied, the residents within the area proposed to be incorporated may then file a petition with the City Clerk requesting annexation. The petition requesting annexation was filed with the Clerk on March 19, 1981. I have examined this petition and it appears to be sufficient in all respects. The effect of this petition for annexation, again according to the same statute, is that the City of Austin must annex the area within six months (by September 17, 1981) or the Creedmoor residents will be free to go forward with their incorporation proceedings without the consent of the City of Austin." Councilmember Himmelblau said she thought limited annexation should be explored. Councilmember Mullen wants to look into the possibility of annexing the Onion Creek area also. RECESS Council recessed its meeting at 4:40 p.m. and resumed its recessed meeting at 6:36 p.m. _ CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS April 16, 1981 TRI-COMMUNITY HOSPITAL Council had before it a City Manager Report on Proposals for a TriCommunity Hospital; a resolution to consider authorization to negotiate with Crow-Wright for a lease/option purchase agreement for the development of lease to the City a hospital and health center to service far north sections of Travis and south Williamson counties; and an ordinance to consider authorizing the creation of an advisory board for the Tri-Community Hospital. Before discussion began, Councilmember Himmelblau asked that the Minutes of the Meeting reflect she left the Council Chamber during discussion because of a potential conflict of interest with the Texas Health Facilities Commission situation. Mr. Bob Spurck, Administrator, Brackenridge Hospital, presented the following report to Council: "As you recall, in November of last year the Council adopted the long range policy regarding Brackenridge's future direction, as recommended by a Long Range Planning Committee and the Board of Brackenridge Hospital. The overriding purposes of this plan are to enhance Brackenridge's stability as a high quality institution rather than declining to a financially-troubled, inner-city charity hospital which becomes a burden on Austin tax payers. The four most important features of our approach include: 1. A strengthened Brackenridge Hospital to build a solid foundation. 2. Outreach programs to better serve a growing population. 3. Linkages and shared services with other hospitals to promote economies of scale and stronger referral patterns. 4. Diversified services to prevent overdependence on acute inpatient care. "This is our plan for survival on favorable terms in the decade ahead, a time when increasing competition, heavy regulation, and economic forces may cause other inner city hopsitals to fail. Our plan is designed to keep Brackenridge Hospital from falling prey to those same forces which have doomed many a public inner city Hospital to financial difficulties. "A key project designed to implement this long range plan is the proposed Tri-Community Hospital. The area of far northwest Austin, within the Austin ETJ (Extraterritorial Jurisdiction) and surrounding communities, was identified in our long range planning process as an area in need of future outreach health services. The Tri-Community area of far northwest Austin, Cedar Park, and Round Rock is one of the fastest growing areas of the state and yet it has a notable lack of health care facilities and services. In an effort to address those needs, Brackenridge Hospital announced plans to establish an outreach facility in this area back in December, 1980. A group of residents from that area known as the Community Advisory Committee have assisted Brackenridge Hospital in planning the proposed facility. In February, the Community _ CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS April 16. 1981 Advisory Committee, The Brackenridge Finance Committee, the Hospital Board, and the City Council endorsed Brackenridge Hospital submitting an application for a Certificate of Need to the Texas Health Facilities Commission. Based upon a review of five financing methods (ranging from revenue bonds and certificates of obligation to a lease-purchase with the private entity) the Brackenridge Hospital Board and the City Council approved the pursuit of a lease-purchase arrangement with a private entity, subject to completion of a Request for Proposal (RFP) process. "As authorized by Council, our Certificate of Need application has been filed and the RFP process has been completed. An inter-departmental City task force was established which prepared an RFP, based on the needs and specifications of Brackenridge Hospital. The RFP was issued and public notice was provided according to City purchasing policies. Two proposals were submitted and were opened on March 30, 1981. The task force has concluded that both firms are qualified to undertake the project development role and provide the financing mechanism for the proposed hospital. Both agree that a competitive bidding process be established, with the approval of the City of Austin, to select the appropriate contractors should the Certificate of Need be awarded for this project. However, the task force believes that Crow-Wright has a particular advantage in terms of: (1) their experience in developing hospitals (Medical City, Dallas; Doctors Hospital, Memphis; Green Oaks Psychiatric Hospital, Dallas); (2) Experience and credentials as participants in the Certificate of Need review process; (3) and at least the same capability of obtaining financing. The proven capabilities and resources of Crow-Wright directly related to the Proposed project provide an additional advantage which should enhance Brackenridge Hospital's potential for successfully participating in the Certificate of Need process. This factor is especially important in a highly competitive "joined-application" situation before the Texas Health Facilities Commission such as the one which we face. "Therefore, the task force recommends that the City Manager or his designee be authorized to negotiate and enter into a lease agreement with CrowWright contingent on receipt of a Certificate of Need and availability of acceptable financing. Should a satisfactory agreement not be reached with CrowWright, it is recommended that the City Manager or his designee negotiate an agreement with the second firm. The negotiated lease will be brought back to the City Council for review and approval. Also, any construction will be undertaken only after receipt of competitive bids. "As authorized by Council, Brackenridge filed our Certificate of Need application April 7, 1981. In order for the Texas Health Facilities Commission to deem our application complete and "join" it with the Lifemark Corporation application by the May 1, 1981 deadline, it will be necessary for Council at today's meeting to name the project developer and authorize negotation of the lease agreement. "A related item is recommended to Council by the Brackenridge Board and Administration: An ordinance establishing the initial Hospital Board and the process for appointing the permanent hospital board for the Tri-Community Hospital project. The initial Board will ensure continuity between the existing Community Advisory Committee, which has assisted Brackenridge in its planning - CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS April 16, 1981 efforts, and the permanent board, which would be established should the Certificate of Need be granted. The initial Board's membership generally will be composed of the Community Advisory Committee members. The proposed ordinance has been drafted by the Law Department. "In conclusion, the proposed project is of major importance to Brackenridge's long range financial stability and to protecting the tax payers investment in Brackenridge Hospital. Unless progressive business-like actions such as this proposal are taken, Brackenridge faces the threat of being encircled by other hospitals in the suburbs with nó connection to Brackenridge. The results are likely to be a shrinking service area, a troubled inner-city charity hospital role, and serious financial problems for Brackenridge Hospital. We request that the Council reaffirm its commitment to our long range direction and this project by authorizing the City Manager to negotiate the proposed lease agreement, and by establishing the initial Hospital Board for this project. I will be happy to answer any questions which you might have." Mayor McClellan stated it will not be possible to pass an ordinance today because there are not five Councilmembers present to vote. Councilmember Himmelblau is abstaining and Councilmember Cooke is out of town. Motion Councilmember Mullen moved that the Council adopt a resolution to authorize negotiation with Crow-Wright a lease/option purchase agreement for the development and lease to the City a hospital and health center to service the far north sections of Travis and south Williamson counties as recommended by staff.

Grove) and authorizing a Management Agreement for continued operation of mobile home facility on an interim basis pending recreational park development. (James T. Long, CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS PROGRAM No. 75/86-13) RON PECK appeared before Council on behalf of the mobile home facilities located on the site. He said the 120 to 130 occupants of the home lots are most concerned because there are not enough mobile home lots in the City to accommodate them when they move. Most are on a low fixed income and the cost of moving their mobile home can be hundreds of dollars. He asked the Council to provide them with information re sources of financial help for them in their move. Mayor Pro Tem Trevino expressed surprise that the residents have not had more notice of their impending move and wanted to know who is responsible, the City or Mr. Grove... Joe Morahan said this has been done hurriedly in order to acquire the land for a City park and prevent sale of the property to someone else. Councilmember Goodman pointed out that the area, under the lease agreement, would continue as a trailer park for two years, plus one year option. Mayor Pro Tem Trevino cited the problem of limited space for the homes to be moved to. He asked if it would be in order to check other property within the City limits to see if it will be conducive to mobile homes. Mr. Morahan said this will be done as a part of their notice to them but he hesitated to discuss it with the mobile home occupants until Council approved. He said notices will be sent to the home owners urging them not to move, but to stay. He said he does not believe Federal assistance for moving covers mobile homes. Councilmember Himmelblau believes that two years' notice will not be an undue hardship and Mr. Morahan thinks in the meantime new parks will open. Motion Councilmember Goodman moved that the Council adopt a resolution to authorize execution of an option agreement to acquire 31± acres along the Colorado River at Montopolis for a park (V. E. Grove) and authorized Management Agreement for continued operation of amobile home facility on an interim basis pending recreational park development. (James T. Long).

The motion, seconded by Councilmember Himmelblau, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmember Mullen, Mayor Pro Tem Trevino, Mayor McClellan, Councilmembers Goodman, Himmelblau Noes: None Absent: Councilmember Cooke Prior to the motion, Charles Boyd, representing Lake Austin Neighborhood Group, said they have met with the developer and the basic design is good but the density is not. He said there is a threat of less desirable duplexes coming. He mentioned the Lake Austin moratorium and Mr. Albert DeLaRosa said it is not clear if the moratorium includes the proposed development. Mr. Bill Gursich, applicant, appeared and said the delay is costly but they will have meetings with the neighborhood and will pay for re-notification of the hearing. Charles Boyd said he thinks this will produce a domino effect with other properties in the neighborhood. More discussion followed and vote was taken.

Dr. Maureen McReynolds, Director, Environmental Resource Management, spoke to Council as follows: "Following outlines in detail the changes contained in the Barton Creek Housekeeping Amendments: 1. The Lowland Water Quality Zone is defined as 700 feet from the center line of Barton Creek rather than 300 feet from the outer edge of the Critical Water Quality Zone. This change will effect land where existence of a bluff reduces the size of the CWQZ. (Critical Water Quality Zone). 2. A provision is added to allow transfer of development rights from the Edwards Aquifer Zone to the Uplands Zone. 3. In the current ordinance, both the Edwards Aquifer Zone and the Uplands Zone contain a requirement that 40% of the land be left undeveloped and undisturbed. In the revisions, some disturbance will be allowed if restoration takes place. 4. Minimal lot size for cluster housing has been clarified to be 5750 feet rather than 1/2 acre. JOE RIDDELL appeared and said there are inadequate setbacks provided in the ordinance and with the provisions as they are, allowance will be made to disturb and then restore. He said the ordinance appears to increase the density of cluster housing and removes the time limit requirement. Councilmember Mullen asked for a definition of natural state. Mr. Albert DeLaRosa said that he does not have the definition, but it has been discussed by City Attorney Jerry Harris. Councilmember Mullen asked him to work on the definition. Motion Councilmember Mullen moved that the Council close the public hearing and ask the staff to bring back another draft of the proposed amendments to the Barton Creek Ordinance which deletes the new language dealing with "two family housing units" and which retains and clarifies the concept of the present ordinance regarding the allowed density for single-family units, treatment of duplexes as two units and other multi-family units as "commercial uses."
