March 27, 2025 – Council approved additional 10% contingency for the Polybutylene Water Services Replacement Program project. Council Committee, Boards and Commission Action: February 18, 2026 – To be reviewed by the Water and Wastewater Commission. Additional Backup Information: Austin Water’s (AW) distribution system is large and complex, consisting of approximately 3,900 miles of water mains and serving approximately one million customers. Distribution system assets require ongoing repair and replacement to prevent leaks and loss of valuable treated water because of deterioration due to environmental conditions and aging. Due to unexpected conditions encountered during construction, the need to repave roads with higher quality asphalt, and additional field-verified deviations with existing utilities; the project’s contingency funds have been depleted. The original Council authorization allowed for a 10% contingency to cover unknown risks associated with the project. It is anticipated that the current 20% contingency limit and administrative authority of $66,000, will not be sufficient for the project based on change orders currently under consideration related to the required project scope of work. A 4.24% additional contingency is requested to ensure a timely and efficient change order processing for a successful project completion. Approval of this request will increase the total project contingency plus Administrative Authority to 25%.

Item 6 Water & Wastewater Commission: February 18, 2026 Council: February 26, 2026 Posting Language ..Title Recommend approval to authorize a contract for liquid phosphate for Austin Water with Shannon Chemical Corp., for an initial term of two years with up to three one-year extension options in an amount not to exceed $5,000,000. Funding: $666,667 is available in the Operating Budget of Austin Water.

The solicitation was published on September 22, 2025, and closed on October 23, 2025. Of the four offers received, the bid submitted by the recommended contractor was the lowest responsive bid received. A complete solicitation package, including a tabulation of the bids received, is available for viewing on the City’s website. This information can currently be found at https://financeonline.austintexas.gov/afo/account_services/solicitation/solicitation_details.cfm?sid=1431 70. MBE/WBE: This solicitation was reviewed for subcontracting opportunities in accordance with City Code Chapter 2- 9B (Minority-Owned and Women-Owned Business Enterprise Procurement Program). For the goods required for this solicitation, there were no subcontracting opportunities; therefore, no subcontracting goals were established. Additional Backup Information: This contract will provide a continuous supply of liquid phosphate to Austin Water's drinking water treatment plants. The phosphate functions by removing calcium and magnesium ions, which are naturally present in the raw water supply and are primary contributors to scale formation.

This contract will replace the current contract, which expires on May 31, 2028. The City is resoliciting early due to increased costs. Requested authorization is based on historical spending and departmental estimates of future needs. The recommended contractor is not the current provider for these goods. Without the routine application of liquid phosphate, scale would accumulate significantly over time, negatively impacting water quality, increasing the risk of service interruptions, and accelerating the degradation of the …

Water Management Strategy Implementation REPORT Fourth Quarter 2025, October - December February 2026 Contents Fourth Quarter Summary Water Conservation Updates Water Loss Reduction Updates Reclaimed Water and Onsite Reuse Updates Conservation Outreach Updates Water Supply Project Updates Water Use and GPCD Notes Regarding Data 2 Fourth Quarter Summary The Water Management Strategy Implementation Report is intended to provide transparency and accountability regarding the execution of strategies from the 2024 Water Conservation Plan and the 2024 Water Forward Plan. The plans include proactive and substantial demand management strategies and innovative local supply strategies, but the hard work necessary to complete the strategies and meet the goals are illustrated in the implementation reports. While the combined water storage in Lakes Buchanan and Travis stayed about 80 percent full throughout the fourth quarter of 2025, Central Texas entered moderate and severe levels of hydrologic drought and remained throughout the quarter. These dry conditions resulted in summer-like water use levels in October before lessening in November. 3 Water Conservation Updates Annual WaterWise Irrigation Program seminar was held on November 6, 2025. Over 130 irrigators and landscapers attended the seminar to learn about landscaping and irrigation. Irrigation inspection anniversary – since October 2024, 1,600 new residential automatic irrigation systems have been inspected to meet State and Austin regulations, providing more efficient and effective landscape irrigation.

For more information see the basis of recommendation section below. ZONING AND PLATTING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: February 17, 2026: Case is scheduled to be heard by the Zoning and Platting Commission. CITY COUNCIL ACTION: TBD ORDINANCE NUMBER: N/A ISSUES: N/A CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The property in question is a little more than 3 acres of currently undeveloped land to the southwest of the intersection of U.S. Highway 290 Service Road East Bound and Springdale Road. These are high intensity roadways, an ASMP level 4 and level 3 respectively. When this property was previously rezoned in 2006 there was a conditional overlay establishing a trip count limit of 2,000 trips per day. This was common of properties within the vicinity at that time. However, at that time U.S. 290 at Springdale Road was a traffic signal and two 4-lane roadways. Today it is a 6-lane freeway with an overpass at Springdale Road flanked by two 3-lane service roads, one in each direction. Austin Transportation and Public Works (TPW) notes in their comments below, they support the removal of the following condition from Ordinance No. 20060727-129: “A site plan or building permit for the Property may not be approved, released or issued, if the completed development or uses of the Property, considered cumulatively with all existing or previously authorized development and uses, generate traffic that exceeds 2,000 trips per day.” 05 C14-2025-0121 - 8901 E. U.S. 290 Highway; District 11 of 9 Limited industrial services (LI) zoning is appropriate at the site; it is the dominant zoning classification in the vicinity, particularly to the northwest. Almost all the property in the immediate area previously zoned community commercial (GR) was condemned with the right of way to the south of U.S. 290 when the highway was constructed. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION: Zoning should promote the policy of locating retail and more intensive zoning near the intersections of arterial roadways or at the intersections …
