It is known as Hl on page 12. It says no city official or employee shall solicit or accept other employment to be performed or compensation to be received while still a City employee or official if the employment or compensation could reasonably be expected to impair independence in judgement or performance of City duties. That will allow a City employee to be upwardly mobile, should they decide a career change. This is in essence a moonlighting clause, which is the intent, I am told, as opposed to limiting City employees from making a job transition." Councilmember Rose seconded the motion.

Ms. Hicky stated, "It is our understanding that the City of Austin is today assigning its interest as signatory in the option agreement with the Southern Pacific, which covers the Southern Pacific downtown properties. A copy of the option contract between the City of Austin and Southern Pacific is here and this is what you would be assigning that the City is the signatory on. That refers to the assignment of the downtown property. The second matter involves what is known as the Southern Pacific mainline which goes from Giddings to Llano and the Council has agreed that the share of the City contribution will be reduced, that the share of the Capital Metro contri- bution will be increased and that the revenues that are returned from the freight operation will reflect the percentage contributions made by the City and Capital Metro as they presently do in our inter-local agreement on revenues from any sales of the Southern Pacific mainline. We have also agreed that the inter-local agreement will correct, as revised by the staff, and by the City and Capital Metro, will correct the title to the property, the fashion in which the City wants to own the Southern Pacific mainline and it will also reflect that transit purposes will occur from Manor past Liberty Hill some 15 miles ) : Council Memo 15 6/26/86 for a total of 68 miles of transit service on the line....Those new percentages would be 81.4% of the Capital Metro contribution or some $2,454,000 and some 19.6% for the City of Austin, or $600,000.00." Councilmember Carl-Mitchell stated for the record to adivse the City Manager to advise staff to revise the interlocal agreement with Capital Metro to reduce the City's participation to 19.6% and that we assign or option to the Southern Pacific downtown property to , Capital Metro and I assume the interlocal agreement will come back for our approval.
