REQUEST: This site is zoned P (Public) and is greater than one acre in size; therefore, a Conditional Use Permit is required, according to the Land Development Code {Section 25-2- 625}. WAIVER REQUEST: Approved 5/13/25 - Environmental administrative variance for Section 25-8-342/30-5-342 (Fill Requirements) for fill of not more than eight feet in the desired development zone and, for a public primary or secondary educational facility, within the desired development zone or the drinking water protection zone. This variance is necessary so that the school district can use its site to house maintenance fleet. Fill in excess of 4', but not greater than 8' is needed to create a flat building and parking pad since the site naturally exists on the top of a hill. There is no adverse impact on water quality and development with this variance will result in water quality that is at least equal to the water quality achievable without the variance.

Jamison, PE Jamison Civil Engineering, LLC Austin, TX 78750 (512) 534-1162 (737) 484-0880 CASE MANAGER: Heather Chaffin (512) 974-2140 heather.chaffin@austintexas.gov PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT: The applicant is requesting a three-year extension to a previously approved site plan. The site plan was originally approved on August 12, 2020, with an expiration date of August 12, 2023. The site plan was approved to construct 10,000 square feet of retail and restaurant land use, with related parking, utilities and other improvements on the 1.31-acre site. The site plan was later granted an administrative extension to August 12, 2024. When the site plan was initially filed in 2019, the City of Austin East Rundberg Lane Extension project was in design to extend Rundberg Lane east from the intersection of Rundberg Lane and Cameron Lane to Ferguson Lane in the east. The construction plans for this extension (City File # C8-2020-0012.0B) were filed in 2020 and approved in February 2022. The roadway extension adjacent to this site was completed in early 2025. The plans and improvements for the roadway extension included driveway access, water/wastewater service connections, and floodplain and drainage improvements in the existing creek. Additionally, the roadway extension plans required 4 site plan corrections. If construction on the Cameron Retail site plan had begun concurrently with the roadway extension, several changes and corrections would have been triggered by the corrections required by the roadway plans. Additional delays in construction were caused by the Covid environment in the early 2020s, affecting financing and market conditions. A 12” water line permitted under the Cameron Retail site plan (City File # SP-2019-0107C) has been constructed in the Cameron Road right-of-way. No other improvement from this site plan have been constructed. SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval to extend this site plan permit by three years, from August 12, 2024, to 09 SP-2019-0107C(XT2) - Cameron Retail; District 11 of 20 SP-2017-0478D(XT2) All Stor Westlake August 12, 2027, based on the case meeting criteria from LDC Section 25-5-62(C)(1)(a). 25-5-63(C) Extension of released site plan by the Land Use Commission: “the Land Use Commission may …

Mr. Brocato’s Direct Line: (512) 322-5857 Email: TO: FROM: DATE: RE: M E M O R A N D U M City of Austin Thomas Brocato Samantha Miller July 3, 2025 Texas Gas Service Company’s 2025 Statement of Intent to Change Gas Utility Rates Within the Incorporated Areas of the Central-Gulf, West North, and Rio Grande Valley Service Areas Overview of Application On June 30, 2025 Texas Gas Service Company (“TGS” or “Company”) a Division of ONE Gas, Inc. filed a Statement of Intent to Change Gas Utility Rates within the Incorporated Areas of the Central-Gulf, West North, and Rio Grande Valley Service Areas (Application) pursuant to Subchapter C of Chapter 104 of the Gas Utility Regulatory Act in all municipalities exercising original jurisdiction within the incorporated service areas and at the Railroad Commission of Texas (“Commission”). The proposed effective date for new rates is August 19, 2025. Below is a summary of the key components of the filing: • • • • • • TGS is seeking to increase its revenues by $41.1 million, which is an increase of 7.07% including gas costs, or 9.83% excluding gas costs. TGS currently has four service areas in Texas. In its application TGS is seeking to consolidate all service areas into a single statewide jurisdiction served by TGS. The Company’s proposed rates for all customers are based on the systemwide cost of providing service to customers throughout the entirety of Texas. The estimated change in rates would result in small residential customers’ average monthly bill, including cost of gas, of $48.82 per month, and large residential customers average monthly bill, including cost of gas, of $74.30. For the Central Gulf Service Area, the impact of this change would be an increase of $3.94 per month for small residential customers, and a decrease of $2.99 per month for large residential customers. For West North Service Area, the impact of this change would be an increase of $10.38 per month for small residential customers, and an increase of $14.64 per month for large residential customers. For the Rio Grande Valley Service Area, the impact of this change would be a decrease of $13.71 for small residential customers, and a decrease of $4.59 for large residential customers. Currently, Central Gulf Service Area rates consist of a $21.36 per month customer charge and $0.87646 Ccf volumetric rate for small residential customers. Under TGS’s proposed rate change, …
M E M O R A N D U M TO: Mayor and City Council THROUGH: Genesis D. Gavino, MPA, Chief of Staff FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Zach Baumer, Director, Office of Climate Ac�on and Resilience May 8, 2025 Staff response to Resolu�on No. 20240718-093 (Comprehensive Climate Implementa�on Program) Background The purpose of this memorandum is to provide a final update on the Comprehensive Climate Implementation Plan. The Austin City Council adopted the Austin Climate Equity Plan in September 2021 to equitably achieve net-zero community-wide greenhouse gas emissions by 2040. With five sections — Sustainable Buildings, Transportation Electrification, Transportation and Land Use, Food and Product Consumption, and Natural Systems — the plan outlines 17 goals and 75 strategies to be completed by 2030. Considerable progress has been made since the plan’s adoption, but work remains, requiring collective action and continued investment. According to a recent analysis conducted by the Office of Climate Action & Resilience (OCAR), 11 of the 17 goals in the plan are either “in need of support” or “off track.” In July 2024, Austin City Council passed Resolution 20240718-093, directing the City Manager to create a comprehensive climate implementation program to refocus City resources toward achieving our community-wide net-zero goal. In the Fall of 2024, staff researched global best practices for improving Austin’s climate plan implementation, including interviews with peer cities and their networks. Staff then worked collaboratively across the City organization to create the Comprehensive Climate Implementation Program, which includes a 2-year Implementation Plan and Programmatic Adjustments. This implementation program aims to equip our City’s leadership with clear and actionable projects and programs to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2027. If all actions in this plan were accomplished, our city could reduce up to 2.3 million metric tons of CO2e by 2040. The plan is best viewed as a direct extension of the Climate Equity Plan and follows best practices in municipal efforts to reduce emissions and improve public health outcomes. This memo describes how this work was completed, what programmatic adjustments are being made, and lists the actions in the 2-year implementation plan. The 2-year Implementation Plan The Office of Climate Action and Resilience compiled several hundred potential actions, drawing from the Environmental Investment Plan, departmental plans, and Joint Sustainability Committee recommendations. These actions were prioritized using C40’s “Action Selection and Prioritization” tool to evaluate equity impacts, considering housing, health, green jobs, accessibility, air quality, feasibility, …
