Board of Adjustment Training & Staff Support Workgroup 2020-07-02 (Leighton-Burwell, Hawthorne, Von Ohlen & Bailey) -- UPDATED Results /Action Items Proposed by the Workgroup (for discussion and possible action by the whole Board at upcoming BOA Meeting): 1. We want to start BOA trainings ASAP (thanks to our Liaison, this is already underway). 2. We want to have knowledgeable staff available at our hearings to answer questions regarding issues outside of BOA Liaison’s expertise (residential zoning), such was Lake Austin, Signage, Waterfront Overlay, etc. 3. We want to find out status of GIS mapping efforts showing history of BOA cases (location, type, etc.). 4. We want to build new bridges with City Staff and repair relationships from past situations. In addition, we want to be able to increase staff accountability without it appearing as a personal attack. 5. We want to know what the Department Supervisors need / want from BOA to better support each other and our joint processes. 6. We want to temper our deliberations to be focused on the facts of the cases before us and be less inflammatory or confrontational towards applicants and staff. 7. We want to hold ourselves accountable and our BOA colleagues in a civil and respectful manner. 8. We want to create processes for transitions in BOA leadership and for additions of new members to our Board. 9. We want to include training on the role the legislature plays in the BOA. Specifically how we are governed by both City and State mandates and what that means in how we operate. E-2/1
MEMORANDUM TO: Members of the Planning Commission FROM: Jerry Rusthoven, Assistant Director/Interim Lead Planning and Zoning Department DATE: May 22, 2020 SUBJECT: UNO Sign Regulations The Planning and Zoning Department is requesting the Commission initiate an amendment to the UNO ordinance to correct an inadvertent change made to the sign regulations in the ordinance. In November 2019 the City Council approved changes to the UNO ordinance. One of those changes was intended to address signs above the second story of a building. Those signs were required to be cut in or engraved into the structure of the building. If the name of a building were placed on the facade this made it physically difficult to change the name in the future. It was agreed by the stakeholders to remove this requirement. In making this change to the ordinance a mistake was made and the result is all illuminated signs were prohibited in the UNO area. This is not what was intended or agreed to by the stakeholders. Also, because the UNO sign regulations are also used in TODs and the North Burnet/Gateway Plan this mistake carries over to other areas. Staff is asking for the opportunity to correct the ordinance. We will be working with the same stakeholders involved in the November revisions. If you need additional information, please contact me by email or 512-974-3207. Cc: Andy Linseisen, Assistant Director, DSD E-3/1
City Council & City Manager, WHEREAS, the members of the Austin Board of Adjustment (“BOA”), fees have increased to a point that many socioeconomically challenged families in the City have been priced out of the ability to have their due process rights met at the Board of Adjustment; and WHEREAS, the BOA would like to give a fair and equitable hearing to all citizens that believe they deserve a special exception to, or a hardship variance from, the land development code; and WHEREAS, the metropolitan area of the City of Austin has approximately 11% of its residents below the federal poverty limit who would be severely challenged or unable to pay the BOA current fee thereby preventing these citizens experiencing issues with Austin’s complex land development code from being able to come to our Board for relief; and WHEREAS, further complicating the situation there is a current public health crisis in the form of SARS-CoV-2 that has resulted in mass unemployment and loss of income; and WHEREAS, a large number of the recent BOA cases have been for issues related primarily to commercial development and large home/real estate developers instead of homes of working or middle class neighborhoods; and WHEREAS, in the past the City of Austin has a history of providing financial assistance programs to assist its citizens and has been at the forefront of implementing policy that provides equity and access to government to all ie. Austin Energy CAP etc.; and WHEREAS, it is the desire that the City Council and City Manager support a fee assistance program for the Board of Adjustments in which the Board fully understands that the current fee structure was intended to reflect the actual cost of services provided by staff within the City, the BOA would like to be clear that any fee assistance program should not result in changes to staffing, rather, that the BOA and the staff provide a public good that should be provided by and supported with tax dollars and fees collected by the city, rather than wholly paid for by socioeconomically challenged applicants; and WHEREAS, the staff that serves the BOA provides exemplary customer service and board support duties, and our city should be proud of the professionalism and knowledge provided by its staff to residents; and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT OF THE CITY OF AUSTIN: The Board of Adjustment hereby …

Item 14: Communication to Commissioner Hadden re Line Clearance From: Vice, Jeffrey (Jeff) Sent: Tuesday, September 08, 2020 4:00 PM To: Hadden, Karen - BC <bc-Karen.Hadden@austintexas.gov> Cc: 'Hopkins, Marty' <martyhopkins@eversheds-sutherland.com>; Hopkins, Marty - BC <BC- Marty.Hopkins@austintexas.gov>; 'Karen Hadden' <karendhadden@gmail.com> Subject: EUC Follow-up Commissioner Hadden, At the EUC’s last meeting, during the Future Agenda Items discussion, you requested 1) some additional information/responses to questions re line clearance and herbicidal use; and 2) an update regarding electrification of the heavy-duty vehicles in the Austin Energy fleet (e.g., bucket trucks). Chair Hopkins and I reviewed the agenda for September, noting that it contained a briefing you had previously requested (from Office of Sustainability), as well as a long-delayed update on the SHINES project (requested by Commissioner Tuttle)…plus the 3rd Quarter Financial Report postponed from last meeting. Recognizing that this month we wouldn’t be able to take up your two concerns above, we wanted to 1) provide you with information that I hope will satisfy your request for additional information re line clearance…and 2) explain that we will schedule a fleet electrification update in the months to come (the last update was provided to EUC Nov 2019). Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Best, Jeff Herbicide Use in Line Clearance Activities a) Treatment or removal of dead vines information is located on the Austin Energy Website Tree Pruning (https://austinenergy.com/ae/residential/residential-services/tree-pruning/tree-pruning) FAQs section (https://austinenergy.com/ae/residential/residential-services/tree-pruning/faqs) regarding vines on utility poles (snap shot attached). In light of your concerns, we intend to change the verbiage from “treat” to “apply an EPA-approved herbicide to the base of the vine.” To clarify, AE/AE’s contractors will remove only vines from poles and not the remaining dead vines that may stretch out along a fence or into surrounding flora. b) You thought perhaps there was a prohibition of pesticide use at the City of Austin; we could not locate any such policy banning pesticide or herbicide use. Rather, the City maintains an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) plan (http://www.austintexas.gov/ipm) which is included in Austin Energy’s forestry contract solicitations (language excerpt provided below). 1 NOTE: The Contractor shall be responsible for all record keeping regarding pesticide application as required by the TDA Rules and Regulations and the City’s Integrated Pest Management (IPM) plan. The Contractor shall abide by the City’s IPM plan when using any general use chemicals, including fertilizer, herbicide or other chemicals, and shall obtain written approval …

The commission may initiate an external or internal review of the policies and procedures of the electric utility. If the commission initiates a review, it shall report its findings to the city council and the city manager.

Additional Backup Information: Austin Energy constructs, maintains, and operates district chilled water plants that transform electrical energy into stored thermal energy that is then distributed, via a network of underground pipes, to external customers in the form of chilled water. The aggregation of loads enables superior efficiencies, reliability and quality when compared to stand-alone systems at each customer’s building. The thermal storage element enables Austin Energy to shift electrical consumption from on-peak to off-peak periods. Austin Energy owns and operates three district energy and cooling systems serving the Downtown Central Business District, the Domain, and the Mueller Redevelopment Zone. The project is to construct a new 6,000-ton Chilled Water Plant (including thermal storage) with an estimated design and construction budget of $15,600,000 to meet the cooling needs of the new Austin Energy Headquarters building, a new medical office building, expansion of the Dell Children’s Hospital and other new customers as they arise. Austin Energy will connect the plant to the existing chilled water distribution piping in the Mueller Redevelopment Zone. The plant equipment will include chillers, cooling towers, pumps and all other equipment for a remotely-operated chilling station. The goal is to have the plant operational in time for the summer 2022 cooling season to minimize the need for temporary …
