Page 1 of 6 pages

MEMORANDUM TO: Chair and Members of the Planning Commission FROM: Andrei Lubomudrov, Housing and Planning Department DATE: October 6, 2021 RE: Proposed release of approximately 31 acres of Austin’s extraterritorial jurisdiction (“ETJ”) to the Village of Webberville The Village of Webberville, at the behest of a property owner, has requested the release of approximately 31 acres of Austin’s extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ) to be included in Webberville’s ETJ. The 111-acre property in question is divided between Austin and Webberville’s ETJ, with the latter covering most of the tract at 80 acres. The tract is located in eastern Travis County near Webberville adjacent to the Colorado River. Releasing the proposed area would create a unified set of regulations for the property and streamline the development review process. Following the analysis of no substantial impact based on the adopted ETJ policy, staff is recommending the proposed ETJ release. In accordance with the City Council adopted policy regarding ETJ adjustments, requests for ETJ release are typically reviewed by staff from several city departments and evaluated in terms of: • Annexation potential • Environmental impacts • • Impact on infrastructure investments Long-term effects of cumulative ETJ releases • Hardship or extenuating circumstances Annexation of this tract by the City of Austin is not feasible in the long-term given its location of about 4.5 miles from the full purpose jurisdiction. 1 1 of 6B-10 Generally, Austin City Council looks for equivalent environmental protection to be provided on land released from the City’s jurisdiction. Staff from Watershed Protection has reviewed the submitted documents and identified no cause for concern with this request. The Village of Webberville has similar ETJ regulations to the City of Austin in this case that will protect the environment and floodplain. The area in question for release is fully covered in the Colorado River floodplain and will not be developed. Any development on the site would be subject to Village of Webberville’s ETJ regulations, which includes their Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance (to restrict or prohibit uses within the floodplain) and Water Quality Protection Ordinance (Modeled after the SOS ordinance). Finally, releasing this area would not negatively impact any existing or planned City investments in utility or roadway infrastructure. The area is not served by City maintained roads. Further, Austin Water has no concerns with this release. The tract is primarily in the Aqua WSC CCN with a smaller portion in the Manville WSC …

Whereas to address the affordable housing crisis, the voters of Austin approved the 2018 GO Bond. Whereas the voters of Austin also approved a $300 million investment in anti-displacement initiatives, along with a commitment to expanding rail service throughout Austin. Whereas, black, brown and other marginalized groups are threatened by displacement due to a shortage in deeply affordable housing. Whereas, the city has made a commitment to equity and justice. Whereas, the Project Connect Group (?) has created an equity tool in order to ensure that anti-displacement funding benefit people most at risk of displacement. Now therefore, be it resolved that the Austin Community Development Commission advises the Austin City Council to adopt the Project Connect Anti-displacement Equity Tool to allocate funding from the 2018 GO Bond and in other matters that aim to address the historic inequalities faced by black, brown and other marginalized peoples of Austin.

DRAFT - CDC Recommendation on I-35 Capital Express Project WHEREAS, The City of Austin’s Community Development Commission’s core mission is centered on serving the poor and community at large; and WHEREAS, I-35, previously known as East Avenue, has historically been used as a barrier segregating the city by race and denying opportunity to black and brown Austinites; and WHEREAS, Austin’s eastern crescent is still economically segregated from West Austin with poorer healthcare options and outcomes; and WHEREAS, an expanded I-35 would increase air and noise pollution for neighborhoods adjacent to the highway; and WHEREAS, the widening of I-35 would require the destruction of nearly 150 homes and local businesses; and WHEREAS, in 2020 Austinites passed a $7 billion transit proposal to connect the city’s neighborhoods with transit and provide better alternatives to single-occupancy vehicle traffic; and WHEREAS, studies have shown that widening highways does not reduce congestion but increase overall car traffic; and WHEREAS, TxDOT has prioritized 2 proposals, neither of which are one of the three community-drawn proposals that limit the height and width of the expanded highway; NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Community Development Commission recommends that TXDOT consider the historical context and negative impacts on health, quality of life, and opportunity that have been expressed by residents and community leaders of Austin. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that Austin’s CDC recommends that TXDOT defer to community preferences and that the final draft of the I-35 Capital Express Central project is no wider and no higher than its current form.
