Zoning and Platting Commission Q & A Report 5. Zoning: C814-2018-0122 - Circuit of the Americas PUD; District 2 Question: Commissioner Aguirre 1. In regards to Affordable Housing, what is the proposed estimated amount expected for the fee in lieu donation per the 2.5.6 Development Bonus? Response: It is not possible to provide an accurate estimate since the fee-in-lieu will be calculated as individual site plans are submitted. Once a site plan is submitted the fee will be calculated based on the current fee rate (which is updated on a yearly basis) multiplied by the bonus square footage of that particular site plan ( which is the square footage above what would have been possible under the baseline CS zoning). 2. It is implied, but need to clarify if the Atlas 14 requirements will be met? Atlas 14 requirements will be met 3. Part 1 of the Backup (p. 13; 2nd paragraph), states, "Applicant has acknowledged no deviations are being requested, and no superior is being proposed for drainage purposes. The requirements of t place at the time of future applications will apply. No further comment." Please clarify. 4. Where are the waste water lines going to be located? Response: The location of the water and wastewater lines will be determined during the Site Plan review process. 5. The Water Quality/Environmental Item (p. 20), under the PUD Proposal/Superiority Column, refers to the Integrated Pest Management Plan (IPM). Does IPM prohibit the use of toxic chemicals? Yes, it is a management plan for pesticides based on landscape and features on site. The Open Space/Parkland Item (p. 21), under the PUD Proposal/Superiority Column, refers to 10% above minimum with private and public open space. Of the 10%, what percentage of the open space will be public? Private? Response: Applicant is meeting more than 10% above in terms of Public Park acreage – 9.71 credited acres dedicated vs. 7.81 acres required. In addition, the applicant is building trails which will not be dedicated parkland (therefore private), and these will be outside of PARD’s jurisdiction. 6.

INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN SAVE HISTORIC MUNY DISTRICT AND THE CITY OF AUSTIN TO MANAGE AND OPERATE THE FOOD AND BEVERAGE CONCESSION AT LIONS MUNICIPAL GOLF COURSE Agreement Overview The City operates the Lions Municipal Golf Course (Lions), located at 2901 Enfield Road, through a lease agreement, a component of the Brackenridge Development Agreement between The University of Texas System (UT System) and the City. The status of Lions Municipal Golf Course, a golf course with historical importance, is uncertain. Save Historic Muny District (SHMD) was created by the Texas Legislature in June 2019 to preserve the 141.35 acres as a public golf course and publicly available parkland. While UT System considers various options for the future of the property, SHMD and the City are collaborating to preserve the property as the Lions Municipal Golf Course in perpetuity. As part of that collaboration, the City wishes to permit the SHMD to manage and operate the food and beverage concession at Lions. The agreement with the previous food concessionaire at Lions terminated in May, and because the City's lease with the University is month to month, a new solicitation was not conducted. Currently, food services are being offered by a temporary food truck. What is the Purpose of the Agreement? This is an interlocal agreement between the City of Austin and the Save Historic Muny District to allow SHMD to operate and manage the food and beverage concession at Lions Municipal Golf Course. What is the Term of the Agreement? The term of this agreement shall run congruent to the current golf course operating lease agreement with UT System and the City. The current lease agreement is a month-to- month agreement with five (5) months minimum notification of termination. This agreement will continue until the lease is terminated, the golf course is sold, or as otherwise agreed to in writing by the parties. Page 1 of 3 INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN SAVE HISTORIC MUNY DISTRICT AND THE CITY OF AUSTIN TO MANAGE AND OPERATE THE FOOD AND BEVERAGE CONCESSION AT LIONS MUNICIPAL GOLF COURSE What Services and Deliverables Will SHMD Provide? • SHMD will solicit and contract with a vendor to provide a food service concession operation at Lions, acceptable to the City and approved by the PARD Director, before the vendor enters or conducts operations at Lions. • SHMD will ensure that the food service concession operation and vendor meet all PARD …

Project (SPaces into Places) Re Surfaced East Austin 02.30.2020 ─ Raasin in the sun 1801 E 51st St, Suite 365 Austin, Texas 78723 1 Overview Resurfaced (Pilot) is a program initiative that explores creative strategies to activate underutilized urban spaces. As with many cities the size of Austin, surface parking and vacant lots have historically been unproductive in terms of serving the community versus benefiting vehicle parking for a good portion of the downtown and surrounding areas. Through Resurfaced, we work with the community and strategic partners to re-vitalize these spaces by making low-cost investments that activate the space NOW rather than waiting for big, long-term developments to take shape. These initiatives focus on the city as the ultimate user interface, where the community can experiment and enjoy unique locations filled with inspiring visual arts from local creative and begin dialog about how we can revive the multitude of surface lots and underutilized spaces, ultimately, turning spaces into places. Mission Our mission is to serve the community through urban beautification projects that unite residents and combat neighborhood deterioration. Through the implementation of project resurfaced we will create opportunities for players of all skill levels, age, and background to engage as a community through the sport of soccer, while providing a place to showcase visual arts, community gardens to enrich the space, and incorporate community centered events. Vision An environmentally conscious community space for pick-up games,community gardens, visual arts, and community events. Goals 1. Now 2. Later Resurfaced Team 2 Land Development/Code Specialist: Kelan Robinson Landscape Architecture: Kim Harding (DWG) Landscape Architecture: Daniel Woodfroff (DWG) Construction Manager: Mark Rogers Programs and Facilities: Raasin McIntosh Media/Content Specialist: Kris San Resurfaced National Model (Click title or image) 3 1604 E. 12th Street 4 5 Environmental Benefits What 'the Landscape' can do: ● Will upgrade current compacted site to previous field (grass or turf) ● Plant pockets of sponge park for stormwater infiltration ● Capture stormwater in cisterns (from the container roofs) for watering the field ● Shaded outdoor spaces/ tree plantings ● Plant pollinator species/ urban habitat ● Inspire care of the park and its surroundings, community cleanups ● Use of recycled and reusable construction materials for carbon sequestration ● Provide access to vital open space in a community that lacks a robust distribution of small neighborhood parks and open space.
