Community Engagement Plan Outline Project Name: Emma S. Barrientos Mexican American Cultural Center Phase 2 Improvements Project Phase: Design Brief Description The Emma S. Barrientos Mexican American Cultural Center (ESB‐MACC), Phase 2 Improvements Project, as prescribed in the Council‐approved ESB‐MACC Más MACC Master Plan 2018 (2018 Plan) is in the preliminary stage of developing the Building Design, which will be based on the 2018 Plan and Building Program. The project includes renovation of existing support and performance spaces, expansion of the building on both levels, and site improvements. As identified during the Building Program stage, the Design Phase engagement efforts will focus on consulting with key stakeholders and listening to community input. Project Resources and Funding Council awarded $27 million in the 2018 GO Bond in addition to funds from a previous bond. These funds will be used to address renovation needs as well as some facility expansion. Unfortunately, the funds are not enough to implement the full 2018 Plan, which has an estimated cost $42 million. Project Purpose The Community Engagement Plan builds on the extensive work of the ESB‐MACC Master Planning community engagement efforts from 2017‐2018. This Community Engagement Plan outlines the continuing efforts in forging a strong relationship with community members and providing an exchange of information in an accessible and equitable manner through the Design Phase of the project while honoring the work that had been previously done by the community. The City of Austin staff will guide engagement with a team comprised of PARD, Public Works, and CPIO Community Engagement with support from the ESB‐MACC staff. Utilizing their expertise will allow consistent connection to community members as well as to maximize the project funds for the building. Scope of the Project and Scope of Community Engagement The scope of this engagement plan will focus on the Building Design phase, which includes Design Schematics and Design Development. This step is anticipated to begin in Spring 2021 and continue to the Fall of 2021. The Design phase includes schematic presentations or conceptual renderings of proposed building and site improvements. Proposed schematic designs will be based on information in the 2018 Plan and refined in the 2021 Building Program stage. Proposed building schematic designs will be presented in various formats to community members, allowing community members to provide comments for the Project Team to consider. Once the proposed schematic designs are approved by the City of Austin, community …

Andrew: Karen Andrew, Begin forwarded message: From: Karen Reynolds < Date: January 5, 2021 at 11:18:05 AM CST To: Andrew Rivera <andrew.rivera@austintexas.gov> Subject: Demand Removal of Jim Duncan Include this on the official Zoning and Platting Commission web page for each case on the agenda. I again urge you and the city council to hold Jim Duncan accountable for his inappropriate behavior and Zoning and Planning Commission: demand his resignation. Any case Jim Duncan votes on should be nullified. Karen Reynolds STOP ALISON ALTER’S COVER UP FOR JIM DUNCAN REMOVE JIM DUNCAN FROM THE ZONING COMMISSION RELEASE THE SECURITY VIDEO Alison Alter Continues to Lie to Protect Jim Duncan When I called the December 3, 2020 meeting this is what Alison said. “...may recall Ms. Reynold’s emailed earlier in the year.

FOR OVER A YEAR YOU HAVE ATTEMPTED TO COVER THIS UP “Ms. Reynolds has declined to participate in the investigation.” – Alison ALISON THAT IS A LIE. I DIRECTLY PROVIDED INFORMATION TO LYNN CARTER OF THE CITY OF AUSTIN LAW DEPARTMENT “…the incident did not occur in the manner Ms. Reynold’s has described.” – Alison ALISON THAT IS A LIE.

For the public hearing on February 2, 2021, Zoning and Platting Commission Comments regarding Case # C14-2020-0139 Contact is Wendy Rhoades I object to the proposed development. Ralph Ablanedo and it's intersections at South 1st, Swenson Lane, Francia, Cullen and South Congress are inadequate to handle any influx of traffic from additional development. This could hinder police/fire response from the 2 stations on Ralph Ablanedo. Road noise from recent development on Cullen is already greatly increased; There are now regular loud noises at all hours from trash trucks emptying dumpsters, and sounds of back up/reverse alarms from various large vehicles as well. Thank you Cody Bowers 8833 Taline Circle Austin, TX 78748 512-507-5503
