Payne Survey No. 288, and the Alex Dunlap Survey No. 805. (C7a-84-002) c. 310 acres of land out and a part of the John Swesey Survey No. 506, A. Eanes Survey No. 509, B. Beacham Survey No. 508, Isaac Perkins Survey No. 37, F. C. Pecht Survey Nos. 69 and 593, C. Parker Survey No. 703, W. Sergeant Survey No. 499, S. Heffington Survey No. 588, W. L. Heffington Survey No. 590, E. C. Gaines Survey, and the J. M. Teague Survey No. 40. (C7a-84-003) Mr. Lillie, Director of Planning, stated this is the second of two public hearings scheduled for the consideration of annexations including 620 from 183 southwesterly to the intersection of Comanche Trail. The annexation of F.M. 2222 from the City limits westerly to its intersection. The 620 corridor is an area of about 700 acres. It is a corridor which is 1000 feet wide and 500' from center line. FM 2222 from City limits westerly to its intersection with 620 is also 1000' wide corridor and is about 500 acres in size. FM 2244, Bee Cave Road, extending Council Memo HEARINGS - (Continued) 10 4/5/84 westerly from Loop 360 to Common Ford road. It is also a corridor 1000' wide and 500' from center line. These annexations are for limited purposes of extending the City's planning and zoning standards and that's zoning ordinance and building standards and the City's health and sanitation codes. No City services will be extended to the area, no taxes will be assessed property owners. Properties will not go on the tax roll. Owners of land within the corridors can vote in Council elections and Council Charter elections and Council recall elections but cannot vote in bond elections. The first public hearing on these corridors was held yesterday and by statute two public hearings are required. A fiscal note has been submitted to you on the administrative costs for zoning ordinance and building codes and public works reviews and by Council policy it is hoped that costs of extending those administrative services will be covered by fees generated by application." Ed Moore, architect, said he owns land on Bee Caves Road and asked Council to seriously consider the limited purpose annexation of land to the west of Austin. He said we are trying to protect our own lake system but on the other hand we are threatening Bastrop and the other communities down stream and he finds that difficult to accept. Motion The Council, on Mayor Pro. Tem Trevino's motion, Councilmember Shipman's second, closed the public hearing and approved the three annexations. (7-0 Vote) : RECESS Council recessed at 4:20 p.m. and resumed its recessed meeting at 4:44 p.m. NORTHEAST AREA AMENDMENTS TO ROADWAY PLAN Council was scheduled to take action on the northeast area amendments to the Austin Metropolitan Area Roadway Plan.

They want to be able to speak, so Councilmember Urdy suggested Council have another public hearing. Council agreed. Motion The Council, on Councilmember Urdy's motion, Councilmember Shipman's second, set a public hearing for April 19, 1984 at 5:00 p.m. on northeast area amendments to the Austin Metropolitan Area Roadway Plan.

Council heard, and Zoned "AA", passing through FIRST READING ONLY of the ordinance. C14-83 JOHN S. LLOYD 5801 Salton Drive 344 By John H. Doonan (Tract 1) From Interim "AA" 1st H&A To "A-2" 1st H&A RECOMMENDED : DENIED "A-2" AND GRANTED "AA" AND PASSED THROUGH FIRST READING OF THE ORDINANCE Mr. Lillie, Director of Planning, informed Council that at the first hearing, Councilmembers indicated they wanted to go out and look at the property. He said the density for the "A-2" cluster project is about 7 units per acre. Mayor Mullen said the smallest home in the area is 1700 square feet and asked if they could require these to be a minimum of 1500 square feet. Mayor Mullen asked the applicant if this is acceptable so the units would be more compatible with the neighborhood. Albert DeLaRosa, representing the applicant, said they are amenable to changing the site plan to include larger units. Mayor Mullen said there is a desire to have a cul-de-sac at the end of Salton. Allan. Brecher, Acting Director, Urban Transportation Department, said they have no objections to that. A representative of the neighborhood said he is agreeable to the two changes suggested by Mayor Mullen and felt the whole neighborhood would be agreeable. Bob Vaughn agrees with what was just addressed and feels it is crucial for Salton to be cul-de-saced before construction can begin in the area because of the nature of the neighborhood. Judy Walker, president, Northwest Oaks Neighborhood Association, said she agrees with the cul-de-sac but does not want anything but single family zoning because it is a single family area. Albert DeLaRosa, representing the applicant, spoke about the advantage of granting "A-2" zoning. John Lloyd, applicant, said everyone who has looked at the project has had concerns about traffic and setting precedents but he said even the opposition has said it is a good looking project. Jim O'Donnell, Northwest Oaks Neighborhood Association, showed a map of the area in which all of the area is single family except site Council Memo ZONING - (Continued) 12 4/5/84 under discussion today. He said dwellings containing 1500 square feet would virtually assure home ownership. John Jacobs, 11323 Taylor Draper Lane, opposes the zoning change, as does Suzy Jones, Mrs. Hooks, Wesley Hooks, Xavier Prado and Phil Ware who asked Council not to increase impervious cover with larger units. followed. Neal Graham appeared to summarize the application. Discussion (On Councilmember Shipman's motion, Councilmember Duncan's second, 4-3 Vote, Mayor Pro Tem Trevino, Councilmembers Spaeth and Urdy voted No, and since applicant had requested emergency passage of Ordinance, the Ordinance passed on FIRST READING ONLY.)

Hartwig 35 Motion To "LR" 1st H&A RECOMMENDED GRANTED AS RECOMMENDED Councilmember Shipman made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Duncan to continue this case until May 24, 1984. Doug Hartwig, Cunningham-Graves, said this tract is 70' wide and 1000' long and used to be a road. Urban Transportation and the Highway Department said they have to take it out and that is the reason for the zoning change. The surrounding area is under contract with the City for water and wastewater commitment and so does this site. Councilmember Duncan said this will increase the number of LUE's. Doug Hartwig stated, "We cannot go back and increase our LUE commitment. This particular tract is tied and we are subject to the contract we entered into with the City and cannot increase LUE's other than in that contract so this particular tract would be included in that contract and no more LUE's would be required." Councilmember Shipman said, "Let's get this into the record. On September 2 the Council approved 1,206 LUE's and this tract is part of that already planned zoning and commitment. We are changing the land use but we are not changing the wastewater or water commitment." Motion Withdrawn Councilmember Shipman withdrew her motion and Councilmember Duncan withdrew his second.

Council Memo ZONING - (Continued) 17 4/5/84 Jack Morton, representing the applicant, said they have no problem with staff recommendation and are seeking clarification and feel like the recommendation was not the way they understood it the night of the Planning Commission. "It speaks to the portion of the recommendation concerning the Jollyville Road improvments. We met with Northwest Oaks Neighborhood Association and had agreed to three specific things: a density limitation of 12 units per acre and also not to seek a Certificate of Occupancy until June 1, 1985 which is, to our understanding, the date of the phase of Jollyville improvements to this site or past this site will be completed. We ask that it be a date certain so we can get our finances in order. We request June 1, 1985. We also agreed with the neighborhood and it's not reflected in the recommendation, to restore the Anna Hiss house that is on this site and incorporate it in the project." Councilmember Shipman said 827 apartment units have already been approved on Taylor-Draper. "This is awkward because staff recommended "A-2" and it really is an "A-2" project except they are not filing a condominium regime but the density is "A-2" and it would buffer into the "AA" that we are granting. One of the things the applicant and I discussed was the applicant might possibly agree to formally requesting that this be translated under the new Zoning Ordinance, instead of coming in as "BB" it will come in as MF-3 and request it come in under MF-1, which is the lowest non-single family category which is 12 to 17 units." Mr. Morton said, "We are willing to comply with that because that is the density we are seeking and have no problem at all with doing that upon the enactment of the new ordinance." Councilmember Shipman said, "The key would be to inform the Planning Department that the zoning be initiated the beginning of the year so that we do not get in boxes for "BB" next door because this is "BB". Mr. Morton asked, "Is there any way that we can, if we are in agreement, have staff just initiate when a new ordinance takes place? We'll be happy to agree with it and go along with it." Donna Kristaponis said the staff can do this "but it might be more appropriate for the applicant to agree to file and have a restriction.....". Mr. Morton asked if they can have fees waived but will pay for the $120.00 notification fee. Councilmember Duncan stated, "The motion is to grant the Planning Commission's recommendation with the stipulation that the applicant will apply at the first of the year for MF-1 zoning and will pay the $120.00 notification fee, all other application fees are waived and the date will be June 30th." Applicant said he would prefer June 1 but agreed to June 30.

Bill Bingham, representing the applicant, stated the reason for : : Council Memo ZONING (Continued) 20. 4/5/84 postponement the first time was to look at the question whether water and wastewater service would be impacted one way or the other by the granting of the zoning. He said the City Attorney has said it is not and agrees water and wastewater is a separate decision. "We will upgrade the neighborhood and propose to build units that are exactly one half of what can be built under other types of zoning. We feel the project has met the concerns expressed to us by the neighborhood. They objected to two story residences. We went to one story. We put additional landscaping in place of fences and everything they said they wanted done we did. It seems they do not want anything there. You cannot put mobile homes there because there is not enough space. We could put single family but that is not a place where you can sell single family residences we do not believe. I guess they would like it vacant so they can continue to use it for gardens or horseshoe pitching or whatever is being done on the land right now but we need to do something with it, the clients have a right to do something with it and we think the use is compatible with the adjoining homes....." Mary Mather, 2001 Bitter Creek, lives within 200 feet of the property and presented pictures and a petition to Council. She said they, who live in the mobile home area, do not want a zoning change. Emma Rogers, 2113 Bitter Creek, said the property in question was originally set aside for the recreational use of the property owners. She is concerned about an increase in traffic with condominiums being built. Ben Arlis, 2004 Bitter Creek, opposed the zoning change and proposed structures. He feels mobile homes would fit in there very well. Motion - DIED FOR LACK OF SECOND Councilmember Shipman made a motion to deny the zoning change. There was no second to the motion.

(7-0 Vote) GUIDELINES FOR BOARDS & COMMISSIONS City Manager Carrasco told Council he is responding to a report requested during a Council Work Session several weeks ago. He referred to a report he had given Council. City Clerk did not receive a copy. "Out of 21 recommendations we have only listed six for possible Council consideration. Intent is to try to better define the roles and responsibilities of boards and commissions. First item is guideline for informing the Council of board and commission activities. It stipulates if the Council wants to set this policy that the chair of that board or commission will be responsible for keeping Council abreast of any major issues or projects as they develop and have the responsibility for providing copies of any reports and briefing the Council. Second item regards requests Council Memo 23 One 4/5/84 for information that are made of the staff. If it is a minor request every board and commission would have to have a motion by a member with a second in order for a minor request to be made. If it is a major significant request for information, a majority vote of the board and my approval would be necessary. On important items, I would need to submit these to the Council for your final approval. The third recommendation simply states that boards and commissions are to assist in providing recommendations concerning policy areas but not be involved in the administrative matters of the departments. Item 4 calls for an annual orientation seminar for both new members and support staff. Item 5 requires that each board and commission submit to the Council a list of all those they anticipate for the coming year in a task format similar to the kinds of goals that Council has and this would be required in May of each year. The advantage of doing that is the Council would know in advance of any planned project that boards and commissions plan to pursue in the coming year and you would have early information that you could put further direction on or change as you wish. Item 6 is a recommendation. on a sunset review process which would call for the establishment of the sunset review committee, the Mayor, one Councilmember, three board members and perhaps two members of staff could be a part of this sunset review committee. We have outlined some criteria you may want to approve. of the criteria may be if a board or commission meets less than twice they would be automatically abolished. The other criteria would simply be key questions that the sunset review committee would have in the event you would decide to establish such committee. There was a question that also came up at the work session concerning attendance requirements for board and commission members. The current ordinance calls for each commission member who misses three consecutive regular meetings or misses one third of regular meetings in a twelve month period to be ineligible to continue to serve except if there is a health reason involved. chair keeps the attendance records, or his or her designee. One recommendation we have on that is for the support staff to be responsible for keeping records rather than the chair of the commission and also to be responsible for processing the notice for vacancy. The Council may want to consider, regarding the size of boards or commissions, from this point forward, to limit size to no more than 9 members. This would not apply to existing boards and commissions but you would be able to reduce the number on any future vacancies that come up. ....We contacted the State to get their language on attendance requirements for State boards and commissions. The language used to be that if they missed more than half the meetings they would be automatically dismissed. The Sunset Commission at the state level apparently felt that was not Constitutional and was revised and the current language is very general and urges board and commission members to be timely in attendance and if they miss a substantial portion of a member's term then they should resign. only exception would be where the Governor decides to remove a member and the Governor does have the legislative authority to do that." The The Mayor Mullen said the only one he questions research on is the sovereign boards. He said they might be able to remove all other board and commission members quite easily, but sovereign boards he is not sure.. Council Memo 24 4/5/84 Mayor Pro Tem Trevino wondered if anything could be done about members who arrive late and leave early. Mr. Carrasco said that other than the chair or members themselves being conscientous, he is not sure there is an easy answer. He told Council he will report back on their questions. EXECUTIVE SESSION Mayor Mullen announced Council will go into executive session pursuant to Article 6252-17 to discuss the following matters Board and Commission Appointments, Section 2, Paragraph g, and after such closed or executive session, and action to be taken will be done in open meeting.
