May 14, 1981 = CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS MOTOROLA PDA AGREEMENT Council had before them a resolution to consider approving a water approach main to provide service to the Motorola PDA site only (approval of this approach main is necessary for the City Council's approval of the Motorola PDA Agreement to be effective.) also Consider approval of the following Water and Wastewater Oversize and Approach Mains: GCG DEVELOPMENT, LTD. - also For construction of a 30-inch water approach main to serve Patton Ranch, Meadows of Travis Oaks and Oak Hill Heights. No cost to the City. Consider approving a Planned Development Area for approximately 150 acres in the Oak Hill Area (C2a-81-001 Motorola, Inc.) Mr. Bulloch, Director of Water and Wastewater, described for Council what the alternative water source is. "Last week the Council asked staff to look for other options for water service to Motorola with specific criteria that any options pursued would not degrade service to existing customers in the area if there were any options which could be developed. We have analyzed several options looking at any source of water in the southwest area that might fit that criteria. We looked at Davis Lane Reservoir, the lines east of Brodie Lane, and the only alternative we could come up with utilizing the criteria was coming out of the Eberhardt Reservoir." Mr. Bulloch said water service can be made available to the Motorola site at Patton Ranch through the currently unused Eberhardt Reservoir at a rate of 1.5 million gallons of water per day without degradation of service to current customers. Because the installation would serve Motorola only, we recommend the point of service to Motorola to be the inlet of the Eberhardt pump station, and that Motorola have full operating responsibility (including electrical costs) for the pump station, the 16 inch line to the Motorola site and all on-site water system facilities. Councilmember Cooke questioned the demand for water by Motorola and Mr. Armbrust, representing Motorola, told him it is 1.9 million gallons per day. Joe Beal, representing Motorola said he did not know if Eberhardt is capable of making adequate storage for their needs. Councilmember Goodman suggested staff check on this. Councilmember Cooke said there has been a lot of debate on the subject to Motorola wanting to build out of the preferred growth area. He said that area will be developed one way or the other. He said he sent a message to Michelin when they could not build their site in Austin..and that Austin needs the jobs offered by Motorola, which is an environmentally sensitive company. He said he believes Area IV will be developed and septic tanks would pollute more than a water system. Councilmember Cooke concluded that if Motorola is denied a plant it will send a signal across the nation that businesses are not welcome in Austin. ! ! - CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS Motion May 14, 1981 Councilmember Cooke made a motion, seconded by Mayor McClellan to approve the original PDA with a 30" tap from the Southwest Transmission Main as recommended by the Planning Commission. Mayor McClellan expressed herself by saying Motorola will be an environmental advantage and said there is nothing in the Master Plan which prohibits growth. The utilities would be at the applicant's expense and the industry would be clean, with the potential of 4,000 jobs dedicated to affirmative action. Councilmember Goodman thought that this motion would not only approve lines for Motorola but for 4,000 homes as well. Roll Call on Motion No Action 3-2-0 Vote - AYES: Mayor McClellan, Councilmembers Cooke and Himmelblau NOES: Councilmember Goodman, Mayor Pro Tem Trevino ABSTAIN: Councilmember Mullen At the time of roll call Councilmember Mullen stated, "Because I want Motorola in Austin and because I think it violates the voter's confidence, I will continue to abstain on any motion to tap Southwest Austin Transmission Main." Motion Councilmember Cooke made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Himmelblau to approve the PDA with a 30" water line from the Southwest Transmission Main as recommended by the Planning Commission and restrict development of all the acreage other than Motorola and the garden office park to 10% a year cumulative in order to manage the growth in an orderly fashion in the area. Roll Call on Motion No Action 3-2-0 - AYES: Mayor McClellan, Councilmembers Cooke and Himmelblau NOES: Councilmember Goodman, Mayor Pro Tem Trevino ABSTAIN: Councilmember Mullen Motion Councilmember Cooke made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Himmelblau to approve the PDA, utilizing the Eberhardt Reservoir with a 16" water line down the existing and proposed right-of-way of William Cannon as recommended by the Water and Wastewater Department with one half of the cost of facility to be reimbursed to Motorola without interest over a five year period commencing January 1 of the following year following the annexation. _ CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS May 14, 1981 Council said they wanted to study the motion further, as they had not heard this option before. Councilmember Cooke said he would leave the motion in abeyance until staff has the opportunity to come back with an analysis. LATER IN THE DAY: Mr. Bulloch addressed Council by saying, "The motion concerning cost participation of the line. I want to start back a couple of steps before that. The proposal that was presented to Council by staff was predicated on the operational relationship being part of the PDA contract. That would tie back to the point of service being at the reservoir, specifically the point of service being between the reservoir and the pump station. As far as finalizing the contract if Council wants to implement the contractual relationship as part of the PDA agreement the total cost of the pump facilities, line and other monitoring equipment make this operational will be approximately $2,000,000.00. The request was for 50% of that being made a part of the contract paid back to Motorola over a five year period without interest...$200,000.00 per year. Looking a the demand of 1-1/2 million gallons per day to supply to Motorola on an annual basis, that would generate a little over $400,000.00 of revenue per year to the City on water. We have not looked at the wastewater side. The quote I gave you is inside the City rates because if they are annexed they will be paying inside the City rates......" ... Councilmember Mullen asked how long it will take Motorola to build out and Mr. Armbrust told him the four phases of construction will be complete by the end of 1986. Councilmember Mullen said that he thinks this would be the best way to work things out. The key issue, he said, is what Council promises the voters. Each member voted his own conscience. He then explained how the voting has been done for bond issues. Councilmember Cooke, Mayor McClellan and Councilmember Goodman then discussed the past actions and the action of the motion under consideration. The motion was repeated and Councilmember Mullen asked if it was legal and with the water and wastewater approach main policy. Mr. Bulloch answered, "Council has a number of contracts they enter into on different relationships. They have some with water districts, MUD's, PDA agreements, special performance requirements, and this is a contract being considered by Council. You by contract have specified extension of facilities for general purpose, for special purposes through MUD's on water lines." Councilmember Cooke said he asked the Legal Department to look at this motion very closely after he made it earlier in the day, "to insure that we would not be violating any previous Council policy, any legal interpretation as far as City policy is concerned." Mr. Albert DeLaRosa, assistant City Attorney, said by the attachment of the PDA agreement, there would be no violation. Councilmember Mullen asked for a close estimate on the amount of taxes the City will receive from Motorola. LATER IN THE DAY: Mr. Daron Butler, Assistant City Manager, appeared with answers to the questions concerning potential revenue sources to the City flowing from the Motorola development. ".....the motion as we have since worked on it and some May 14, 1981 _ CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS variations call for a phasing of the annexation and the payment of the line to fall after the last parcel of land is annexed on the property. I have looked at the potential stream of revenue coming to the City over time from the Motorola property on the assumption that the annexation would occur in stages and that all the water and sewer rates would be inside the City rates and that the City would be getting property taxes on the annexed property beginning in 1983. If annexed in 1982 before then the property would not flow to us in taxes until the next year. Over the period in question, beginning about 1982 and extended through the period of 1988 when all of the property would be annexed the City would receive an accumulative total of $5.4-million in property taxes from the Motorola property and buildings. The one figures that would also be included in the tax rolls over the same period. ... That does not include inventory but I have no reasonble way of projecting that at this time. Water revenue beginning in 1982 at inside the city rates would begin on the basis of water at $81,280.00 per year, moving to the full number Mr. Bulloch used on the completion of the full build out of the plant of $406,200 a year when they will be taking the maximum one million five hundred thousand gallons a day. Over those same years the total water revenue is $1.7 million. Revenue from sewer service which I would like to say is our softest number would begin at $72,000 moving to $360,000 a year with the plants full scale operating capacity, generating $1.5 million over the same period. Electric revenues would begin at $1,200,000 moving upward upward at full production capacity to about $6,000,000 a year for a total of $20.8 million during the same period of time. Under the proposal the City would assume no payments on that one half of the line until 1989 so that revenue would flow to us over the periods the plant is in operation. These are directly identifiable revenues so we can have some fair understanding of the scope at this time." Councilmember Cooke said, "$29.4 million, roughly." ... "In light of the additional modification, let me make a slight modification to the motion that I made earlier." Motion Amended Councilmember Cooke made a motion to approve the PDA, utilizing the Eberhardt Reservoir and a 16" water line for Motorola only, down the proposed right of way of William Cannon as recommended by the Water and Wastewater Department and that one half of the cost of the facility, not to exceed $1,000,000.00 be reimbursed to Motorola without interest for a five year period commencing January 1 of the first year following annexation of the last parcel of the 150 acres; that Motorola be requested to annex each parcel or phase of their facility as it is completed as far as construction and improvement of each one of these phases. Councilmember Mullen seconded the motion. Councilmember Mullen said strip annexation would be required to get to the plant. Mr. Lillie said the field notes annexing the 290 strip are complete and it goes beyond the Y at Oak Hill. More discussion followed and Councilmember Himmelblau said she wanted a guarantee that Motorla will stay in the City of Austin Electric system. CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS May 14, 1981 : Friendly Amendment Councilmember Mullen offered a friendly amendment, accepted by Councilmember Cooke that a clause be in the PDA that construction must commence in two years. Roll Call on Motion with Friendly Amendment Roll Call showed the following vote: Ayes: Mayor Pro Tem Trevino, Mayor McClellan, Councilmembers Noes: Cooke, Himmelblau, Mullen Councilmember Goodman No action was necessary for the resolution under consideration to approve the CGC Development Ltd. for construction of a 30-inch water approach main to serve Patton Ranch, Meadows of Travis Oaks and Oak Hill Heights. CONGRESS AVENUE TASK FORCE STATUS REPORT ROBERT BARNSTONE, Congress Avenue Task Force, presented the Status Report. He explained the plan, which was on display in the Council Chamber, which includes trees and peninsulas. Due to construction of the peninsulas, 100 parking spaces will be lost, but 53 will be gained on the side streets. Councilmember Cooke asked about the funding. Mr. John German, Director of Public Works, told Council, "We have in Public Works about $1.8 million available. In parks, roughly $200,000 so there is about $2 million available. The monies that were in Water and Wastewater and Electric have been reallocated because of a need to move on and do other projects while we were studying this but there are funds which perhaps can be made available from those two sources for the relocation. $140,000 in Water and Wastewater and roughly $240,000 in Electric which would easily cover their share of the cost as the project is proposed." .... After a short discussion the following motion was made: Motion Councilmember Goodman moved that the Council put an item on next week's agenda to set a public hearing on the proposed Congress Avenue improvements. The motion, seconded by Councilmember Cooke, carried by a unanimous vote. : ! i ! ! _ CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS ROBERTSON HILL UPDATE May 14, 1981 Brenda Gooden, Human Services Department, gave the City Manager Report on Robertson Hill Update. "As referred to in your back up material the Robertson Hill Steering Committee is proceeding at your directive to find some sound steps toward neighborhood preservation and keeping the integrity of Robertson Hill neighborhood intact. We are going to be coming back to you at the end of the summer with recommendations from that committee on how to proceed with the project." FIRE SYSTEMS FOR CITY BUILDINGS Mr. Tom Muehlenbeck, Deputy City Manager, introduced the City Manager Report on Fire Systems for City Buildings. He said a task force has been appointed to look into the safety of buildings the City employees work in. Mr. John German, Director of Public Works, said that there will be a sprinkler system installed in the basements of City Hall and the annex. Also, many of the older buildings in the City have the same problems and they will be taken care of. City Manager Davidson asked that staff be given authority to design an RFP (Request for Proposal). Motion Councilmember Goodman accepted the report and requested the City Manager to request staff to proceed with the design of an RFP.

TEXAS: : : PUBLIC HEARING ON AN APPEAL Mayor McClellan opened the public hearing scheduled for 11:00a.m. on an appeal by Mr. Joe Riddell of the Planning Commission's decision to grant a variance in subdivision case #C8-80-40.3 (Mapel Run, Section 3). Mr. Lillie, Director of Planning, appeared before Council to state, "The Williamson Creek Ordinance provides that variances granted by the Planning Commission can be appealed by any citizen provided that the appeal is no later than the regular second Council Meeting following the Commission's action. The appeal was filed by Mr. Joe Riddell and was on your agenda for the 23rd of April, and pulled down by the Legal Department because the form of the finding of fact drafted by the Planning Commission was not correct, so it was rescheduled by the City Council for today. Mr. Graves is here to discuss the project and I suggest he be allowed to do it so you know the format of why the appeal was made." MR. CHARLES GRAVES appeared before Council to state, "I represent Mr. Bill Milburn on this variance request. Maple Run preliminary plan was prepared and submitted and approved prior to the adoption of the Williamson Creek Ordinance. Maple Run Section I was also approved as a final plat prior to the adoption of the ordinance. A commitment was made at the time of design to anticipate the provisions of the ordinance to comply with what we thought requirements might be. In Maple Run I it falls short only in one regard. It had the gas line swells, it had the critical water quality zones, it did not have the water quality ponds which were later incorporated into the ordinance. This is under construction at the present time. There were two or three points on that at which it failed to comply with another thing that was not anticipated. It did not have any construction in the 100-year flood plain but we did not anticipate there would be a 200-foot minimum from the center line of the creek on each side which we would call a critical water quality zone. This would represent the 100-year flood plain but not less than 200 feet nor more than 400 feet. We did not have the advantage of this at the time we made the design. There is one point at which, after the ordinance was adopted, we were not able to pull back a full 200 feet, and that is the point in question at the present time. All the rest of the lots we were able to adjust after the passage of the ordinance. Where we made contact with Maple Run I all we could do was put the maximum curve in there and curve it as sharply as we could to get away from that little incursion (referred to map), This left two lots well outside the 100-year flood plain. They are within the theoretical water quality zone. There was no way possible to pull that street further away from there. One of the lots would have a house half within the 200-foot minimum; the other lot would be fully within it. But up one more lot in Maple Run I there is no critical quality zone there since it preceded the ordinance." MR. DAVID BLOCH appeared for Joe Riddell and read a letter from Mr. Riddell for the record: "Dear Mayor and Council: I will probably be unable to get away from work at the Legislature this afternoon for the postponed public hearing at 3 p.m. I ask that you consider this letter as part of my appeal and read it into the record. May 14, 1981 _ CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS "I believe that, to protect the Barton Springs aquifer, you should deny Bill Milburn's requested variance to build on two lots in the Critical Water Quality Zone. My particular concerns include: 1. Such construction is undesirable from a water quality standpoint. 2. It would set a precedent for further requests to intrude on the Critical Water Quality Zone. 3. The Planning Commission did not make a finding of fact justifying this variance request. "Regarding points 1 and 2: You may recall that the CWQZ extends from the centerline of the creek to the boundary of the 100-year flood plain, except that it is never less than 200 feet nor more than 400 feet from the centerline. On the lots in question, the CWQZ is set at the minimum 200-foot distance. You must draw the line on respecting the CWQZ somewhere, and certainly the 200foot distance is a bare minimum. I do not think that the Williamson Creek ordinance adequately protects Barton Springs. You may. But please do not compromise it any more. "Regarding 3: The variance provision of the ordinance allows a variance only if the property is deprived of "privileges or safety enjoyed by other similarly situated property with similarly timed development." The only other property cited by the Planning Commission in granting this variance is the adjacent Maple Run Section 1 subdivision. However, that subdivision was finally approved prior to adoption of the Williamson Creek ordinance. Therefore, it does not constitute "similarly timed development." On the contrary, granting this variance contravenes the third sentence of Sec. 207.1(a) because it would provide the applicant with a special privilege not enjoyed by other similarly situated property with similarly timed development. "Several minor points are raised by Bernard Snyder's letter from the Planning Commission. They primarily seem to be arguments of equity outside the scope of the variance provision. I would point out that the preliminary approval granted to this subdivision prior to the Williamson Creek moratorium was done illegally. The approach main resolution requires that the approach mains be approved prior to approval of the preliminary subdivision. The Planning Commission approved the preliminary in September just before the moratorium. The approach main was not approved until December. "If you would continue the hearing to a definite time next week or late this evening, I would be able to address you on these issues. Please call me at 475-6011 if you do. "Thanks. Attached is the Environmental Office's memo recommending denial of the variance request. Yours truly, Joe Riddell "PS. Please excuse the typos." CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS May 14, 1981 : _ Mr. Lillie read a summation of the Planning Commission's decision in which they found this to be a "unique situation and discourages further variances of this type." Councilmember Goodman asked about the finding of fact required by Council. Mr. Jim Nias stated, "The Ordinance requires you either affirm or overrule the finding of fact made by the Planning Commission. ....The finding of fact by the Planning Commission is that it was a special circumstance. Jand Motion Councilmember Goodman moved that the Council close the public hearing the finding of the Planning Commission to grant a variance in subdivision case #C8-80-40.3. The motion, seconded by Councilmember Cooke, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmember Mullen, Mayor Pro Tem Trevino, Mayor McClellan, Councilmembers Cooke, Goodman Noes: None Not in Council Chamber when roll was called: Councilmember Himmelblau RELATIONSHIP WITH INCORPORATED MUNICIPALITIES Mayor McClellan opened the public hearing scheduled for 10:00 a.m. on several items dealing with Austin's relationship with incorporated municipalities. Mr. Bill Bulloch, Director of Water and Wastewater, introduced the items under consideration, which were: 1. Consider a resolution establishing a review process for the preparation of Contract Assessment Reports. 2. Consider an ordinance establishing a Capital Recovery Charge and associated living unit equivalents for water and wastewater service in Growth Management Areas IV and V and in Incorporated Entities and providing for the elimination of the outside-the-city Capital Increment Fee. : 3. Consider amending Ordinance No. 800320-E by providing that subsequent use fees for oversize portions of an approach main will be paid to the City. 4. Consider an ordinance abolishing the Wastewater Privilege Fee. 5. Consider an ordinance abolishing the moratorium on new water and wastewater services to areas within incorporated entities. MR.

May 14, 1981 _ CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS : whether 7TH YEAR CDBG APPLICATIONS Council had before it a resolution to consider approving the proposed 7th Year CDBG (Community Development Block Grant) Applications. Mayor Pro Tem Trevino said the Council needed to decide whether they want to continue funding the EACEDC (East Austin Chicano Economic Development Corporation), AMEDC and NBL (National Business League) Staff has recommended against this. "We need to decide or not to continue funding and if so we need to realize whatever funding level we may arrive at, it would be deducted from the other CDBG activities. If we go over the CDBG recommendations of either the staff or the joint sub-committee, we in effect will provide no monies for the activities of the economic development corporations." Councilmember Himmelblau said they had never received a report regarding the City's liabilities from HUD (Housing and Urban Development). Mayor Pro Tem Trevino said HUD has informed them they (the City) will hear from HUD at a later date. Councilmember Cooke discussed proposed funding for AMEDC and said it was high. EACEDC, he said, wants $286,000 which is a 12% increase in salary for its executive direction and other staff members, 13.8%. "We only gave our own City employees 10%...this seems high. Looking at the Urban League, some of their projects are very good, but the $24,000 salary for the manager of the credit union seems high." Councilmember Cooke went on to review the rest of the proposed funding. He asked, "Do we want to fund to the proposed level on everything?" Councilmember Goodman said we cannot afford to do that. Councilmembers Cooke and Goodman agreed the Vaughn House needs $135,000. Councilmember Himmelblau expressed her concurrence with Councilmember Cooke's concern regarding salary jumps. Recess Council recessed its meeting at 12:00 Midnight to discuss figures for CDBG and resumed its recessed meeting at 12:20 a.m., May 15, 1981. Motion Mayor Pro Tem Trevino moved that the Council fund the economic development corporations up the following level: Austin Minority Economic Development Corporation (AMEDC), $200,000; National Business League, $150,000; East Austin Chicano Economic Development Corporation, $125,000. Councilmember Goodman seconded the motion. Mayor. Pro Tem Trevino said he had discussed the situation the Council finds itself in with the chairmen of these corporations. ABE GUITERREZ appeared and said as far as the corridor projects the City has never discussed taking the initiative on their own. They (economic development corporations) have done this. He said the staff has never told this City Council how much total Federal money there is. That should be done forthwith, so Council knows where they stand. May 14, 1981 _ CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS Mayor Pro Tem Trevino stated, "You said staff had not done any activity regarding the corridor project. I remind you that two years ago I personally sent out letters to 30 to 40 businessmen in East Austin and invited a lot of our friends to sit down. Some monies had already gone into the 11th and 12th street corridor and I had suggested to the Mexican-American community that we start efforts on 6th and 7th streets so we could start a similar project. I did not think it was the position of a Councilmember or staff to devise plans. We have had experience when we suggest things to a neighborhood they are not necessarily received wholeheartedly. At that meeting I suggested to the group that met that they develop a plan and at that time I recall we had at least half a million dollars, and there was a concensus from the Council at that point that we would provide the monies as we have to the Black communities we would do it to the Chicano community. I was disappointed that the individuals who I met with who I assumed were going to pick up the ball and start working toward a plan we could take to the Council and appropriate the monies never materialized. I wanted to go on record that we have, or at least I have, gone into the Chicano Community when monies were available for such activity." PAUL HERNANDEZ, EACEDC, told Council he did not think their proposed amount is fair. He said they will take cuts in salaries for staff, but asked not to be penalized. He asked for $200,000 limit. Substitute Motion Died for Lack of Second Councilmember Cooke offered a substitute motion to increase EACEDC to $200,000 and NBL $150,000; AMEDC $200,000. There was no second.

Mayor McClellan said, "All right, we are going to roll it all back together again.
