M E M O R A N D U M 3/25/2021 Mayor and Council Special Events Task Force Interim Report James Russell, SETF Co‐Chair and Jeff Smith, SETF Co‐Chair TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: The purpose of this memo is to provide Mayor and Council with an interim report on the progress of the Special Event Task Force, as required by Resolution No. 20210902‐049. The Special Events Ordinance instructed for the creation of a Special Event Task Force (SETF) to assess the efficacy of the ordinance, the associated rules, and ACE processes. The task force consists of 11 voting members appointed by Mayor and City Council, as well as City staff that participate in the Austin Center for Events serving as ex officio members. Meetings began in June of 2019 and continued through February 2020, when the COVID‐19 pandemic caused the SETF to take a hiatus. A total of eight meetings took place during this time frame. During those meetings there were no votes taken to move specific recommendations forward to City Council. However, the following are potential recommendations and other topics for consideration that the SETF will revisit in its coming meetings. Potential Recommendations Change definition of Special Event to “50 or more attendees at any time” from 100 attendees per day. Section 4‐20‐1(14)(a) and (c) o This change would bring the SEO definition into alignment with the fire code definition of an event, AFD does the same amount of work for either. This would also expand the protections in the SEO for applicants with event attendance from 50‐99 people. Change event length in definition of Tier 3 events to “is an assembly lasting five days or less…” Section 4‐20‐21(B)(2) o One key difference between an event lasting 4 days versus 5 days or more, is the application deadline. In instances where the only difference is the number of days and the site plan is the same, ACE has been waiving the application deadline down to 30 days. Sound can only be permitted for 4 days in a 30 day period. o This may impact Tier 3, would need to discuss further. Change the number of attendees required for all Tier/deadline classifications to be reflective of a venue/location’s peak capacity o City staff has added a question to the AB+C portal application that asks to estimate the max daily attendance and the max anticipated attendance at any …

Rebates paid may not align with AE Finance eCombs system as of 09/30/21. Dollars are unaudited. Data is as of 09/30/2021 and is not a complete year. The complete year of data will be available in the upcoming annual report. Energy Efficiency Services Residential Programs AE Weatherization (WAP) – Direct Install • Due to the contractual nature of the program, the final completion numbers for the WAP will not be finalized until the end of October/mid-November. The program anticipates 600+ homes weatherized in FY21, compared to 246 homes in FY20. Program changes implemented for FY21 have been very successful in attracting customers for weatherization. These program changes included increasing the income requirements to 80% Median Family Income, providing a self-attestation method for income validation, and streamlining the application process in a 1 page, mobile-friendly, online application that takes only minutes to complete. In FY21, the program also added Smart Thermostats as an eligible measure. • The Weatherization AC Rebate and Loan Program also had a banner year. In FY20, zero homes participated in this program. For FY21, program staff increased the rebates to match the HPwES program and also reduced the interest rate to 0%. As a result, 51 customers went through the Weatherization AC Rebate and Loan Program in FY21. • Both programs face difficult barriers such as labor force, supply chain issues, and the COVID-19 pandemic. It is a testament to the diligence and innovation of the contractors, program staff, and field staff who continue to find solutions that enable the program to continue to weatherize homes in spite of these barriers. 1 Appliance Efficiency Program (AEP) • For FY21 approved approximately 3,046-HVAC, 1,249-Smart Thermostat, 122-VS Pool Pump, 62-Window AC and 643- HPWH based on EECP reporting. • The AEP program in collaboration with Green Building, are in discussions of implementing installations of Heat Pump Water Heaters in new residential construction, with approved funding. • The successful transition of the AEP Pending Acceptance workflow step, from Shared Services to the Residential Team, with no impact to the end user.
