Austin Decisions: New Airport, Equity, Parks

Thursday, November 3, 1988 regular

Here's a look at key decisions from an Austin City Council meeting in late 1988:

  • Green Light for New Airport Project:

    After significant debate, Sverdrup/Gilbane was chosen as the project manager for a new municipal airport. The decision included strict requirements for a 35% Minority/Women Business Enterprise (MBE/WBE) participation level and a condition to delay land acquisition until all funds are certified.
  • Affirmative Action Plan Adopted:

    Despite concerns about a city budget shortfall, the Council approved the 1988 Affirmative Action Plan and allocated $140,000 for its implementation.
  • New Parks Named & Funded:

    A new metropolitan park was officially named Mary Moore Searight Metropolitan Park, a triangular median became Palma Plaza Park, and funds were approved for improvements at Northwest District Park.
  • Tech Incubator and Utility Oversight:

    The Council appropriated $50,000 to fund the Austin Technology Incubator. Separately, a $50,000 contract was approved for an external consultant to conduct a "Sunset Audit" of the Water and Wastewater Department.
