REGULAR MEETING Tuesday, April 12, 2022 EARLY CHILDHOOD COUNCIL MINUTES The Early Childhood Council (ECC) convened on Tuesday, April 12, 2022. Board Members in Attendance: Chair McHorse, Vice Chair Worthington, Council Members Alvarez, Bliss Lima, Conlin, Demby, Gordon, Hedrick, and Huston Staff in attendance: Caitlin Oliver, Donna Sundstrom, Cindy Gamez, and Michelle Rodriguez CALL TO ORDER – Chair McHorse called the meeting to order at 6:02 p.m. PUBLIC COMMUNICATION: GENERAL Two people provided public comment. The first speaker, Zenobia C. Joseph, requested that the ECC include access to transportation in recommendations regarding affordable housing for families with young children and that the ECC ask City Council to reconnect people who live North of Highway 183 through public transportation. Joseph also commented on City competitive bidding for social service contracts and expressed concerns about access for new providers to receive funding. The second speaker, Laura Olson– a mom, former early childhood educator, and Organizing Director of GoAustinVamasAustin!– requested that the ECC schedule evening meetings to accommodate the schedules of working families and that future meetings include multilingual interpretation and translation of agendas. Olson also asked that the ECC prioritize families with young children in anti-displacement and affordable housing strategies and that the ECC prioritize opportunities for equitable investments in Austin’s Eastern Crescent. 1. APPROVAL OF MINUTES from March 9, 2022, meeting – Member Gordon moved to approve the minutes from the March 9, 2022, regular meeting. The minutes were approved by a unanimous vote of 9-0. 2. NEW BUSINESS AND POSSIBLE ACTIONS a. Annual ECC officer elections Member Hedrick moved to recommend re-election of Cathy McHorse and Matt Worthington for the Chair and Vice Chair positions, respectively. Chair McHorse and Vice Chair Worthington were re-elected by a unanimous vote of 9-0. b. Policy Work Group updates i. Workforce Solutions Capital Area request to add appointee to the ECC Prior to the City Council’s 10-1 decision for appointing members to boards & commissions, Workforce Solutions (WFS) Capital Area appointed someone to the ECC. After that decision, WFS no longer had an appointed person. Adding a 14th member to the ECC requires an ECC bylaw amendment and a City Code amendment. The policy work group decided that now is not the right time to pursue this request because of the community engagement with WFS already in motion. Members discussed considering equitable makeup of the ECC and the criteria for expanding appointed positions, possibly …

Item4b_Project Connect Community Advisory Committee ADCAP Recommendations — original pdf
MEMORANDUM City of Austin Mayor and Council Members, Austin Transit Partnership Board Chair and Board Members, Capital Metropolitan Transportation Authority Board Chair and Board Members FROM: Awais Azhar, Chair, Project Connect Community Advisory Committee TO: CC: Randy Clarke, President and CEO, Capital Metropolitan Transportation Authority; and Executive Director, Austin Transit Partnership Spencer Cronk, City Manager, City of Austin Gina Fiandaca, Assistant City Manager, City of Austin; and Ex Officio Board Member, Austin Transit Partnership Rodney Gonzales, Assistant City Manager, City of Austin Rosie Truelove, Director Housing and Planning Department, City of Austin DATE: March 23, 2022 SUBJECT: Project Connect Community Advisory Committee Anti-Displacement Community Acquisition Program (ADCAP) Recommendations In 2021, the Austin City Council approved the utilization of $23 million of the Project Connect anti- displacement funding to address land acquisition and affordable housing preservation in Resolution No. 20210204-062. In response, the City of Austin launched the Project Connect Anti-Displacement Community Acquisition Program (ADCAP) to provide community-based organizations with funds to acquire property for the development, preservation, and renovation of affordable housing in areas identified as vulnerable to displacement along the Project Connect high capacity transit corridors. Land acquisition and the preservation of existing affordable housing are key strategies for addressing potential transit-induced displacement and creating opportunities for vulnerable communities. To make the program more effective and achieve anti-displacement outcomes, the Project Connect Community Advisory Committee recommends the following: • Prioritize the development and preservation of housing that serves households at deeper affordability levels. For renter households, this would mean prioritizing projects that serve households with an annual income at 30 percent of area median family income or lower. In 2021, this was $20,550 for a single-member household and $29,300 for a four-person household in the Austin region. In order to achieve our desired anti-displacement outcomes, it is critical to provide housing opportunities to those most in need and leveraging other programs and initiatives to achieve this goal. • Expand community outreach to key community organizations and stakeholders to share the availability of funding under the ADCAP program and provide greater assistance in completing applications. To ensure greater program participation from community development organizations, it is critical to share the program more widely and support organizations going through the application process. Leverage the availability of other programs and funding opportunities to build capacity among Community Housing Development Organizations. This is critical to ensure that we continue to create the new …

Note: Due to time constraints, this recommendation was provisionally authorized by the CDC (March 8, 2022) for submission to COA Budget recommendation portal prior to text being finalized. The CDC will vote to memorialize this finalized version at April 12, 2022 meeting for procedural prudence. As such, highlighted items will be updated accordingly on the finalized recommendation COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION FY22/23 BUDGET RECOMMENDATION 20220331-01 Date: March 31, 2021 Subject: COA Community Land Trust Program – Add New FTEs Motioned By: Vice Chair Karen Paup Seconded By: Commissioner Cheryl Thompson Authored By: Commissioner Kendra Garrett Recommendation The Community Development Commission recommends that the City Manager increase the budget to provide an additional 1.5 to 2 FTEs (est. $150,000 to $225,000) for the Community Land Trust Program in the Housing and Planning Department. These funds should be allocated from the general revenue and/or from dollars designated for anti-displacement efforts. Rationale In 2005, City Council adopted Resolution No. 20050526-021 to research various forms and the feasibility of land trusts for affordable housing. From this research and analysis, the city created a Community Land Trust (CLT) and currently, there are 43 ownership properties in the portfolio. On May 21, 2020, the city announced that AHFC will purchase 20 single-family homes from HACA – to be rehabbed and sold to low-to-moderate income residents under the city’s CLT program. However, there is only one staff member employed by the City to administer this program: • This results in delays (i.e. status quo relative to recommendation) in the “make-ready” of these properties for resale to qualified residents, particularly in a very tight and very expensive housing market where the economic opportunity costs of delays are quickly magnified. • Additional staff would also multiply the professional and administrative capacity to concurrently research, innovate, develop, pilot and forecast a development pipeline of more quickly scalable CLT-driven affordable homeownership models (e.g., beyond single-family) that can be brought to market more quickly and in higher numbers. As one of the fastest growing cities in America, Austin is also one of the least affordable cities for current and future residents. In the NYT article, “How Austin Became One of the Least Affordable Cities in America,” the author writes that home sales prices have skyrocketed to a record median of $536,000 in October, more than doubled since 2011, when the median sales prices was $216,000. “The surging prices have created a brewing housing …

The CDC will vote to memorialize this finalized version at April 12, 2022 meeting for procedural prudence. As such, highlighted items will be updated accordingly on the finalized recommendation COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION FY22/23 BUDGET RECOMMENDATION 20220331-02 Date: March 31, 2021 Subject: Increase Economic (Direct) Assistance For Renters Motioned By: Vice Chair Karen Paup Seconded By: Commissioner Cheryl Thompson Authored By: Commissioner Kendra Garrett Recommendation The Community Development Commission recommends that the City Manager increase the budgeted amount for economic assistance to renters by at least an additional $15MM, with suggested allocations of $5MM to be disbursed through Austin Public Health (APH) Neighborhood Services Unit and $10MM to be disbursed through Housing and Planning Department (HPD) rental assistance programs. We recommend that these dollars be allocated from the general revenue and/or from applicable federal funds allocated to the city through whichever configuration results in the least and/or most flexible restrictions on expenditure to assure that economic relief most quickly reaches Austinites who will require it. Rationale Over the last year and half, the City’s RENT program has provided $35MM in rental assistance to over 8,000 households. That is a tremendous feat! This funding source, along with food distribution, utility assistance, and many organizations and neighbors help out residents in need have staved off thousands of evictions and reduced the likelihood of a family from falling into poverty. We cannot thank the city enough. However, two years later, Austin residents are still affected by the pandemic, compounded by high gas prices, high inflation, and federal interest rate hikes. With food, household staples, and rents increasing, we cannot afford to lose sight of making sure our residents remain stably housed and able to financially meet life’s other demands. In early March 2022, Travis County (TC) announced that $9M of TC general revenue and ARPA funds will be used for rental assistance. This is in addition to the $18MM TC has spent on rental assistance due to the impact of Covid-19 In less than a week, the county received nearly 4,700 applications, effectively forecasting complete extinguishment of that funding source. March 1, 2022 also marked the final expiration (per State statute) of Travis County’s moratorium on evictions “Travis County recognizes there is still a great need …

Note: Due to time constraints, this recommendation was provisionally authorized by the CDC (March 8, 2022) for submission to COA Budget recommendation portal prior to text being finalized. The CDC will vote to memorialize this finalized version at April 12, 2022 meeting for procedural prudence. As such, highlighted items will be updated accordingly on the finalized recommendation COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION FY22/23 BUDGET RECOMMENDATION 20220331-03 Date: March 31, 2021 Subject: Increase Budgeted Resources for COA Community Development Commission to foster Strategic Planning Motioned By: Vice Chair Karen Paup Seconded By: Commissioner Cheryl Thompson Recommendation The Community Development Commission recommends that the City Manager ensure availability of budgeted funds in the amount of $6,000 (six thousand dollars) to be expended at the discretion of the Community Development Commission (CDC), within appropriately allocable cost centers, and with applicable staff oversight, for the purposes of strategic planning, team building and board “retreat” or similar activities. Rationale 1. It is widely accepted that “retreats” and planning sessions outside of the traditional working environment are useful tools in developing chemistry (i.e., Building trust, mitigating conflict, encouraging communication, and increasing collaboration) among group/team members whose collective work is to solve difficult challenges, especially in an environment where participants or members frequently rotate in or out of service due to appointment procedures. 2. The CDC participated in similar activities “pre-pandemic,” presumably validating a shared belief by department and City management in subpoint 1 above. 3. The onset of the pandemic resulted in the very reasonable halting and curtailing of a broad range of activities, including strategic planning and related retreat/s to both mitigate viral spread and help ensure that limited resources may be focused on the most mission critical activities during a period of unprecedented unknowns. 4. During the pandemic, Neighborhood Housing & Community Development (NHCD) and Planning & Zoning (PAZ) were merged to form the Housing and Planning Department (HPD). The CDC was formerly operationally administrated by NHCD and is now, in turn, operationally administrated by HPD. Per staff implication, this has ostensibly resulted in: o 10 Boards and Commissions under the umbrella of HPD o Diluted or cannibalized resources across the array of boards and commissions within HPD (Item 3C, Dec 14, 2021 CDC Meeting) Through some combination of factors in subpoints 2, 3, and 4 above, the ability to operationalize CDC strategic planning retreats and related activities is now clearly hampered, with no appearance of …

Easterseals-CDC Remarks 41122 — original pdf
Community Development Commission CDBG Request Presented by Tod Marvin, President, Easterseals Central Texas April 12, 2022 Thank you for giving me the opportunity to speak with you this evening. My name is Tod Marvin and I am the President of Easterseals Central Texas, a nonprofit organization serving people with disabilities in this community for the past 85 years. Eight years ago Easterseals acquired Vaughn House, a nonprofit organization located at 1701 Evergreen Avenue in south Austin. Vaughn House has been in operation since the 1960’s, serving deaf individuals with multiple physical and/or intellectual disabilities. Since 1984, Vaughn House has been operating a Day Habilitation program at 1701 Evergreen Avenue as well as a janitorial employment program. These programs are an important resource for the deaf community in Austin with multiple disabilities, and their families. The Day Habilitation program provides meaningful day activities for clients, and needed respite for their caregivers. Prior to the covid pandemic, the program was serving 10 clients. Unfortunately, many Day Habilitation programs did not survive the pandemic. Today, our program is serving 28 adults and we have a waiting list of other clients needing services that we’re unable to serve today. When Vaughn House acquired its current property in 1984, it worked with the city of Austin to secure CDGB funds to upgrade and expand the facility. For the past 38 years, those funds have supported critical services to deaf citizens with multiple disabilities. Vaughn House and Easterseals have been excellent stewards of those funds, leveraging them to the greatest degree possible in service to our mission. We’ve provided direct services to nearly 1,600 hearing-impaired people with disabilities while supporting the mental and physical health of countless additional family members and caregivers. Today, the need is greater than at any time in Easterseals Vaughn House history. The pandemic has undermined the community’s ability to provide quality services to our people and if we do not respond, the consequences could be serious. I am here to request Community Development Block Grant funding needed to expand and repurpose our existing facility in order to meet the current need for Day Habilitation services in Austin. We have the property and the existing space, but currently it is not appropriately configured nor constructed to provide Day Habilitation services. The space has been used primarily as storage and staging for our Janitorial Services Employment program. Renovating our existing building would allow …

CDC_Budget Recommendation 20220412-04D1: Increase Assistance For Renters — original pdf
1 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION FY22/23 BUDGET RECOMMENDATION 20220412-4d(1) Date: April 12, 2022 Subject: Increase Economic (Direct) Assistance for Renters Authored By: Commissioner Kendra Garrett Recommendation The Community Development Commission recommends that the City Manager increase the budgeted amount for economic assistance to renters by at least an additional $15MM, with suggested allocations of $5MM to be disbursed through Austin Public Health (APH) Neighborhood Services Unit and $10MM to be disbursed through Housing and Planning Department (HPD) rental assistance programs. We recommend that these dollars be allocated from the general revenue and/or from applicable federal funds allocated to the city through whichever configuration results in the least and/or most flexible restrictions on expenditure to assure that economic relief most quickly reaches Austinites who will require it. Rationale Over the last year and half, the City’s RENT program has provided $35MM in rental assistance to over 8,000 households. That is a tremendous feat! This funding source, along with food distribution, utility assistance, and many organizations and neighbors helping out residents in need have staved off thousands of evictions and reduced the likelihood of a family from falling into poverty. We cannot thank the city enough. However, two years later, Austin residents are still affected by the pandemic, compounded by high gas prices and high inflation. With food, household staples, and rents increasing, we cannot afford to lose sight of making sure our residents remain stably housed and able to financially meet life’s other demands. In early March 2022, Travis County (TC) announced that $9M of TC general revenue and ARPA funds will be used for rental assistance. This is in addition to the $18MM TC has spent on rental assistance due to the impact of Covid-19. In less than a week, the county received nearly 4,700 applications, effectively forecasting complete extinguishment of that funding source. “Travis County recognizes there is still a great need for rental assistance. We remain committed to prioritizing and serving our most vulnerable communities,” said Pilar Sanchez, TC HHS. Even with this additional flow of assistance funds, March 1, 2022 marked the final expiration (per State statute) of Travis County’s moratorium on evictions. We recommend that the city strive to continue to meet the need for assistance by providing $5 to $10M in additional rental/economic funding for residents, as the effect of the pandemic lingers for many Austin residents. of 2 Date of Approval: April 12, 2022 Vote: …
CDC_Budget Recommendation_20220412-04d(2)_IncreaseBudgetForCommunityLandTrust — original pdf
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION FY22/23 BUDGET RECOMMENDATION 20220412-04d(2) Date: April 12, 2022 Subject: COA Community Land Trust Program – Add New FTEs Authored By: Commissioner Kendra Garrett Recommendation The Community Development Commission recommends that the City Manager increase the budget to provide an additional 1.5 to 2 FTEs (est. $150,000 to $225,000) for the Community Land Trust Program in the Housing and Planning Department. These funds should be allocated from the general revenue and/or from dollars designated for anti-displacement efforts. Rationale In 2005, City Council adopted Resolution No. 20050526-021 to research various forms and the feasibility of land trusts for affordable housing. From this research and analysis, the city created a Community Land Trust (CLT) and currently, there are 43 ownership properties in the portfolio. On May 21, 2020, the city announced that AHFC will purchase 20 single-family homes from HACA – to be rehabbed and sold to low-to-moderate income residents under the city’s CLT program. However, there is only one staff member employed by the city to administer this program: • This results in delays (i.e., status quo relative to recommendation) in the “make-ready” of these properties for resale to qualified residents, particularly in a very tight and very expensive housing market where the economic opportunity costs of delays are quickly magnified. • Additional staff would also multiply the professional and administrative capacity to concurrently research, innovate, develop, pilot and forecast a development pipeline of more quickly scalable CLT-driven affordable homeownership models (e.g., beyond single-family) that can be brought to market more quickly and in higher numbers. As one of the fastest growing cities in America, Austin is also one of the least affordable cities for current and future residents. In the NYT article, “How Austin Became One of the Least Affordable Cities in America,” the author writes that home sales prices have skyrocketed to a record median of $536,000 in October, more than doubled since 2011, when the median sales prices was $216,000. “The surging prices have created a brewing housing crisis that is reshaping the city of nearly 1 million people, and pushing mostly low-income Black and Latino residents away. In 2018, [the UT report shows that] at least 35 Austin neighborhoods were undergoing some stage of gentrification.” Increasing housing stock and utilizing a long-term affordability tool like land trust must be a top priority for the city to prevent displacement and provide affordable housing option for residents. …
