*** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Please share with the planning commission. This is a dangerous choice and will ruin the vibe of a public healing space. The majority do NOT want alcohol at the springs . Do you really want drunk people who have been in the sun all day to possibly drown, get killed in a car wreck, putting stress on our city services, lifeguards, etc? There is plenty of alcohol available in this city Keep Barton springs safe and peaceful. Marsha Fatino *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Please send to all the parks commissioners: I urge you to take a final vote against alcohol sales at Zilker Park Cafe. Protect our park goers young and old, our pool visitors and our lifeguards. Ed Crowell Sent from my iPhone This is a very bad idea to have alcohol service at Barton Springs. It will be smuggled in! This is a “family value” park. The high temperatures in summer promote drinking of all kinds, but the idea of having drunken individuals in and near the park is NOT a good idea. Kill this idea! We are again covered up with twaddle from the vocal minority regarding beer and wine sales at Zilker Park. This isn’t an issue about beer and wine sales in the new Zilker Snack Bar … it’s an issue of getting rid of ACL Fest. They will soon oppose all beer and wine sales in all of Zilker Park...in hopes of removing ACL Fest from the park. The vocal minority is opposed to ACL Fest in Zilker Park... I guess they are opposed to the over $40 million that ACL has contributed directly to Austin Parks...thanks to Austin Parks Foundation...a sizable percentage of that $40 million has gone to help parks east of IH35. Also, this isn’t an issue about beer and wine … it’s an issue of change. The vocal minority is opposed to change. Planning Commission Laura would have Council dictating what women are allowed to wear to Barton Springs pool. Her remarks of the possibility of men getting drunk at the cafe and making rude comments to women in swim-wear are just as irrational as her scare tactics. Do not turn this into some moral responsibility. Policy should be based on facts not proverbial scare tactics. Sincerely, Elizabeth Blankenship “A young woman who doesn’t know better that she shouldn’t wear …
C-02 and C-03 Letter from COA regarding PDC and LUC Meetings.pdf — original pdf
TO: M E M O R A N D U M Mayor and Council Chairs of the following Boards, Commissions, and Committees: Zoning and Platting Commission; Planning Commission; Historic Landmark Commission; Board of Adjustment; Environmental Commission; Sign Review Board; Building and Standards Commission; Building and Fire Code Board of Appeals; Code and Ordinances Joint Committee; Design Commission; Electric Board; Mechanical and Plumbing Board; Small Area Planning Joint Committee; Waterfront Planning Advisory Board; and the Urban Forestry Board October 19, 2021 Change of location for land use related Commissions Denise Lucas, Development Services Department Director Rosie Truelove, Housing and Planning Department Director FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: On June 29, 2021, a memo was distributed regarding the opening of the Permitting and Development Center. As indicated within the memo, the PDC brings together resources and expertise from multiple City departments which provide permitting and development services for our community. The new facility is designed to provide a seamless development process, all in one place, for residential and commercial customers and special events permitting. All pertinent department representatives will be co-located at the PDC. As a next step for utilizing the PDC, liaisons to each respective board, commission, and committee will be asked to assist with coordinating the relocation of meetings to the PDC Conference Center, which is a key asset included in the approved design of the PDC. Coordination will include working with each board, commission, and committee to walk through the facility, identify and collaborate to solve for major concerns, and to develop and implement communications plans leading up to and through changes in meeting locations. The Conference Center is 5,000 square feet, will be equipped to televise meetings through ATXN by late February 2022, has sufficient room for 351-person occupancy and the capacity to be separated into small rooms, and has a 969-parking space garage connected to the PDC. Changes in meeting locations will not occur prior to February 2022. Rather, there will be initial discussions and opportunities to visit the PDC so that each respective board, commission, and committee has an opportunity to learn more about the PDC. This change will reduce the reliance on the City Hall Council Chambers and Boards and Commissions Room and reinforces the concept of the PDC serving as the City’s one-stop shop for all development and permitting related needs, which was a key recommendation in the 2015 Zucker Analysis. As with all public meetings, …
C-02 and C-03 Letter of Support.pdf — original pdf
Dear Commissioners, I am reaching out to you regarding the City Staff’s proposal to move future Planning Commission Meetings to a new location in far North Austin. I believe this issue will come up under Item C-3 in your meeting this evening. I would fully support any efforts to ensure the Planning Commission meetings stay centrally located at City Hall. Moving the meetings would add an undue burden to the residents in far SE Austin and Travis County. As you are aware, our population is very diverse and mostly representative of low-income and people of color, plus there would be challenges in having access to public transportation in order to make meetings on time or return home when the meetings run extremely late. I do not think the Equity Office was consulted on the impact this move would have for vulnerable populations? The City Hall location is central and the logically best location for all residents. Additionally, because City Hall is centrally located, the surrounding residents and businesses would be best equally served, including equally disadvantaged. If the meetings are moved far North, those living and/or working in South Austin, particularly SE Austin, will be at a much greater disadvantage to publicly engage in your hearings. With all the growth in our area, it will make it harder if not impossible for our community to participate in the hearings in the future. Please let me know how I can help support you. I sincerely hope the Planning Commission votes in support of keeping the Planning Commission meetings at City Hall. This would also ensure there would be no confusion on the location of zoning and land use hearings and where they would be heard regardless of which body is having the hearing: Planning Commission or City Council. Thank you for your consideration and your continued service to our community. Respectfully submitted, Ana Aguirre D2 Resident
