PARKLAND IMPROVEMENT, MANAGEMENT, AND OPERATIONS AGREEMENT AMENDMENT NO. 1 BETWEEN THE CITY OF AUSTIN, AUSTIN PARKS FOUNDATION, AND DOWNTOWN AUSTIN PARKS, LLC Agreement Overview The City of Austin (City), Austin Parks Foundation (APF), and the Downtown Austin Alliance (DAA) agreed that the public benefits of Republic Square Park would be substantially enhanced through the re-improvement of the Park in accordance with a previously developed Republic Square Master Plan for the Park. They further agreed that this goal could best be achieved by utilizing the services of APF and DAA as non-profits in connection with the re-improvement management, and operation of the Park. On February 10, 2015, the Parks and Recreation Department (PARD) entered into a Parkland Improvement, Management, and Operations Agreement with APF and the DAA for Republic Square, which is parkland property leased to the City by the State of Texas. APF was responsible for the design, permitting, bidding, and construction of improvements to Republic Square that conformed to the Republic Square Master Plan. Upon completion of the construction of improvements, DAA became responsible for the management and operation of Republic Square. After the execution of the contract, DAA assigned the agreement to Downtown Austin Parks, LLC. (DAP) on September 9, 2016, with the approval of the PARD director. PARD performed all maintenance with no reimbursement to DAA. Later, DAA began performing baseline landscaping services (mowing, horticulture and litter abatement) for PARD. As such, PARD agreed to annually reimburse DAA $7,000 for these services and $7,000 for utilities based on the three previous year’s average. On December 13, 2018, City Council approved Resolution No. 20181213-018 to authorize an amendment to allow the City Manager to maintain and approve the list of events requiring full closure of the Park annually and setting a limit at 20 such events per year and for any events in excess of 20 the City Manager is directed to obtain Council approval.

Briefing and Possible Action recommending that the City of Austin acquire and preserve the Lions Municipal Golf Course for use by future generations. Farhad Madani, Assistant Director, provided the Board with an overview detailing: 1) the partnership between the University of Texas and the Citizens of Austin; 2) the Brackenridge Task Force Recommendation (which recommended the lease of the golf course not be renewed or extended when it expires in 2019); 3) the history of the lease including the lease payments made throughout the lease term; 4) the importance of low cost golf to the Citizens of Austin and; 5) the impact that the golf course has had on the community. Lions, is was noted, is one of the most popular courses in Central Texas. The course has exceeded over 1.3 million patrons since 1988. Mr. Madani also indicated that the University of Texas Board of Regents will take public comment on November 9, 2007 at 1: 30 p.m. Mary Arnold provided the Board with additional information including how in the 1970’s the Re- gents and the City agreed to continue the lease and how a second agreement was approved to con- tinue with the terms of the lease. After additional discussion, Board Member Chimenti moved to ap- prove a resolution (attached) which recommended: 1) the City of Austin seek to acquire and preserve the Lions Municipal Golf Course for use by future generations and; 2) the City of Austin encourage the University of Texas Board of Regents to include the City, users of Lions Municipal, neighbors and any other interested parties in the Master Planning Process for the Brackenridge Tract.

RESOLUTION NO. 20160211-013 WHEREAS, in 1924, the Austin Lions Club established the Austin Municipal Golf and Amusement Association (the "Association") with the intent to establish the first public golf course and clubhouse in Austin; and WHEREAS, the Association established the Lions Municipal Golf Course, known by its nickname "Muny," through a lease for a portion of the Brackenridge Tract on Enfield Road in West Austin owned by the University of Texas executed on May 31, 1924, between the Board of Regents and the Association; and WHEREAS, on December 17, 1936 the Association transferred their lease for the course to the City of Austin and in March 1937 this transfer was approved by the University of Texas Board of Regents; and WHEREAS, throughout its first 26 years, Muny was a segregated golf course despite its proximity to Clarksville, historically a predominantly African American community where laborers who helped build the course and many caddies who worked at the course resided; and WHEREAS, after the Sweatt v. Painter United States Supreme Court decision desegregated portions of The University of Texas in 1950, the African American community in Austin pressed for access to golf on municipal courses. Starting in late 1950 led by Mayor Taylor Glass and Council Member Emma Long, the Austin City Council desegregated the course in the spring of 1951, and Muny became the first desegregated municipal golf course in the South; and WHEREAS, the desegregation of Muny set a precedent in Austin that was followed by the integration of the Austin Public Library in 1951 and the desegregation of a fire station on Lydia Street in 1952, both well in advance of the United States Supreme Court ruling on Brown v. Board of Education and decisions requiring desegregation of public golf courses; and WHEREAS, on December 16, 2008, the Travis County Commissioners Court approved a resolution supporting the Travis County Historical Commission's application to the Texas Historic Commission for a historical marker at Muny on the basis of the early desegregation of the Lions Municipal Golf Course and the bonds of affection Muny enjoys in the community; and WHEREAS, on January 15, 2009, the City Council passed Resolution No. 20090115-060 supporting the Travis County Historical Commission's application to the Texas Historical Commission for a historical marker at the Lions Municipal Golf Course in recognition of the historic significance of the integration of the golf course and the advancement of …

The 1ft wide compacted gravel shoulder is part of the permitted trail design, and not part of the landscaping of the trail. • Native vegetation is slow to establish but has begun to fill in after a long hot summer. As vegetation increases, erosion and drainage issues will naturally decrease. The current urban trail detail showing topsoil over sub-base was adopted in December 2018, after the trail had been permitted and construction began. • • Tree Health • This is the first urban trail project where trees where planted along the trail as part of the project. • Watering and survival of the trees during the project is the responsibility of the contractor.
