Librarians and library staff collaborated and created quests, or activities, for all age groups that would engage and entertain the public. We provided activities for all age groups such as sharing their COVID-19 story with the Austin History Center for their living-story archive, recreating book covers with found items, learning to draw a landscape, building forts, APL staff-written “Choose Your Own Adventure” interactive stories, and early learning singing time – in conjunction with guided reading activities and suggested reading lists by age group. 2020’s APL Virtual Summer Reading program, themed “Imagine Your Story” provided new virtual activities each month for the public in a way that allowed for social distancing and Austin’s Stay at Home order. Notably, the virtual format enabled APL to provide all summer reading programs and materials in both Spanish and English. APL saw a 39% increase in APL Summer Reading site views alone for the month of June 2020 (as compared to June 2019 site views), with nearly 10,000 individual views between June – August 2020. On October 15, City Council approved a $49,975 CARES (IMLS/TSLAC) grant for the Austin Public Library. The funding will be used to buy laptops and hotspots for low income students in the Austin area. In October, the City Audit department found fraud and waste in the Austin Public Library. We appreciate the work of the Auditor’s Office on this investigation and accept their findings. We take fraud, waste, and abuse seriously, and while participating in the …
COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION Recommendation 20201028-2A –Austin Climate Equity Plan and support for bold actions JOINT SUSTAINABILITY COMMITTEE Seconded By: Commissioner Carroll Date: 10/28/2020 Subject: Community Climate Plan Bold Actions Motioned By: Commissioner White Recommendation Our community has built meaningful momentum, but it is critical that we maintain our sense of urgency and commitment. The 2030 Austin Resource, Generation and Climate Protection Plan jump started the original climate plan. Policies such as Affordability Unlocked ordinance not only enabled emission reduction through compact footprints but also proactively addressed equity through affordable housing. Project Connect and related transit initiatives are essential to set up Austin Climate Equity Plan 2020 update for success. The JSC recommends that more bold actions such as the ones above are proposed and taken at an increasingly faster rate to truly move the needle and change our trajectory Description of Recommendation to Council • Support and promote Austin Climate Equity Plan 2020 • Empower City Manager and all city departments to put forth bold action proposals that put City of Austin on a more urgent path to net-zero by 2040 while proactively addressing equity • Leave playbook for the next Council to continue making Climate Equity Plan a top priority Rationale: While the original Community Climate Plan in 2015 to reach net-zero community-wide greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 was a bold action in and of itself, the recent scientific data from the 2019 UN Emissions Gap Report showed a stark reality that temperature has already increased 1.1°C and even the most ambitious national climate action plans today are far short of limiting 1.5°C increase. C40 Deadline 2020 Report provided a roadmap to tackle this increasing challenge with a more aggressive 2040 net-zero target. Even major community investment such as Project Connect will only reduce 5% of the total reduction goal at full realization. Record of the Vote: Motion to approve by Commissioner White, second by Commissioner Carroll. Motion passes: 9 approved, 0 opposed, 0 abstained, 3 absent. Date of Approval: October 28, 2020 Attest: [Staff or board member can sign] Zach Baumer, Liaison 1 of 1 Zach Baumer

In 2013-2014 the congregation left this location and constructed a new church at 5415 East Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard. The property was sold to the current owner in 2016 and the building was used as Administrative/business offices for several years. This use is a nonconforming use under Section 25-2-624 of City Code because it is not related to a civic/public service. The Administrative/business tenant recently moved out and the owner wishes to find a new office tenant for the existing building. Please see Exhibit C- Applicant Letter. DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: As stated above, the subject property is the former home of the Ulit Avenue Missionary Baptist Church congregation and is located on the west side of Ulit Avenue between East 18th Street and East Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard.

B-71 of 40 Planning Commission: October 27, 2020 BASIS FOR STAFF’S RECOMMENDATION: The applicant proposes to change the land use on a 1.562 acre tract of land (1101 Shady Lane) from Commercial to Mixed Use land use. The property is part of a zoning application that includes 1109 Shady Lane (0.997 acres) that already has Mixed Use designation on the future land use map, therefore the 1109 Shady Lane tract is not part of this plan amendment application. Staff supports the proposed change to Mixed Use at 1101 Shady Lane because the property is near the Springdale Neighborhood Activity Center and Airport Blvd which is an Activity Corridor where Mixed Use is appropriate. The Govalle/Johnston Terrace Combined Neighborhood Plan supports the diverse range of housing options for the planning area in addition to mixed and balanced land uses. The Plan supports the creation of neighborhood-serving commercial uses within walking distance to residents. Below are sections of the neighborhood plan that supports the applicant’s request. 2 B-72 of 40 Planning Commission: October 27, 2020 3 B-73 of 40 Planning Commission: October 27, 2020 4 B-74 of 40 Planning Commission: October 27, 2020 5 B-75 of 40 Planning Commission: October 27, 2020 LAND USE DESCRIPTIONS EXISTING LAND USE ON THE PROPERTY Commercial -Lots or parcels containing retail sales, services, hotel/motels and all recreational services that are predominantly privately owned and operated for profit (for example, theaters and bowling alleys).
