2f Austin Pets Alive! Q3 Report — original pdf
Animal Advisory Commission Report Q3 2021 This report is intended to give a high level overview of Austin Pets Alive!’s lifesaving operations, with a focus on APA!’s impact on Travis county through our partnership with Austin Animal Center. Summary: Austin Pets Alive! (APA) continues to be the city of Austin’s largest partner in lifesaving and the largest subsidizer of the city’s budget to serve Austin animals. APA takes animals that have medical and behavioral issues that require a higher cost per animal than the average healthy animal in care. APA focuses on these animals in an effort to have a measurable effect on the live release rate at AAC. In July and August, of all animals transferred from Austin Animal Center to partners, APA took 80% and over 25 times the number taken by the other brick and mortar shelter in Austin. APA’s cost to care for the animals pulled this past quarter was approximately $500,000-$750,000. APA receives no funding from the City of Austin but does receive use of the TLAC property, which if on the rental market could reasonably expect to receive $8 per square foot, per year in rent for the use, condition and location that it is in (ie $100,000 per quarter). APA!, therefore, contributed between $400,000-650,000 last quarter to subsidize the city’s budget to serve Austin animals. APA’s mission is to eliminate the unnecessary killing of shelter animals. Over the last 10 years of the license agreement, the role of APA’s support at AAC has shifted away from lifesaving and into serving as “overflow” for AAC, serving many animals that should not be at risk of euthanasia in the city’s publicly-funded shelter. The Austin Animal Center has received an increase in budget of more than 10 million dollars since 2010 and many supports have been put in place over the years by Austin City Council. APA is 100% committed to continuing to serve as a safety net for animals that cannot be saved through tax payer dollars and is currently negotiating a license agreement that more accurately reflects the mission of APA and the responsible utilization of all funds put towards animals, whether they are donated or tax funded. In the last quarter, 569/608 animals were considered “at risk” or “at high risk” of euthanasia. 5 small dogs, 24 large/medium dogs and 10 cats were pulled for “space” or as “non-at risk” reasons. The percent …

HISTORIC LANDMARK COMMISSION PERMITS IN NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICTS SEPTEMBER 27, 2021 HR-2021-115725 CLARKSVILLE NATIONAL REGISTER HISTORIC DISTRICT 1104 TOYATH STREET C.3 – 1 PROPOSAL Construct a new residence with carport, pool, and roof deck. PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS 1) The proposed new building is 3 stories in height. It is clad in vertical fiber cement siding and capped with a metal roof. Fenestration includes single-hung and fixed windows and a horizontally glazed front door. A roof deck with horizontal metal railing sits atop the house, accessible by a spiral staircase at the side elevation; the staircase is partially enclosed by a transparent wood screen. Its full-width front porch is supported by boxed columns and the front and rear gables that comprise its compound roofline are accented by triangular knee braces. 2) Construct a deck and pool behind the main house. 3) Construct a retaining wall at the rear of the house. DESIGN STANDARDS The City of Austin’s Historic Design Standards (March 2021) are based on the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and are used to evaluate projects in National Register districts. The following standards apply to the proposed project: Residential new construction 1. Location The proposed building is set back approximately 25’. This property is adjacent to the Lawson House, a historic landmark, and proposed new construction may overpower it due to the height difference between the two buildings. 2. Orientation The proposed new building has a consistent orientation with the rest of the buildings on the block. 3. Scale, massing, and height The proposed new building is three stories plus a roof deck—much taller than the single-story contributing buildings on the block. However, due to the slope of the lot, the first floor is not visible from the street. Its complex massing is also at odds with the relatively simple contributing homes of Clarksville. 4. Proportions The proposed new building’s design is strongly vertical, which does not reflect the more horizontal proportions of the modest contributing houses on the block. 5. Design and style The proposed design is somewhat compatible in its inclusion of a front porch, its front-facing gables, its siding material, and its relatively rhythmic fenestration patterns. The decorative brackets added to the gables are not appropriate for its modern style. The building is less compatible in its scale, massing, and proportions; the rear portion of the house appears somewhat overpowering. 6. Roofs The gabled roofline …
