The district is characterized by a Lack of connectivity - Could drop 33 downtown blocks in district of superblocks and surface parking. It is Pedestrian-hostile, with a limited walking grid, narrow sidewalks, few street trees, and fewer streetscape amenities.Scarcity of Greenery - ~20% of district is surface parking. Sparse tree canopy. Lack of open space. No Affordable Housing guaranteed. As a response, the now-retired Waterfront Planning Advisory Board, with staff support from the Urban Design Division, began initial planning and community outreach in 2012. Building on this early effort, The City Council passed a resolution in 2013 to create an official small area plan.Capping this four-year effort, the South Central Waterfront Vision Framework Plan (SCW Plan) was adopted by Council in June 2016. The SCW Plan established a vision to guide redevelopment in this district over the next 20 years. The adopted SCW Plan is based on a district-wide, public/private partnership model that will transform the district by: ● ● ● ● Retrofitting 17 acres of new connected parks, trails, plazas, and open spaces across a patchwork of 34 private properties. Adding over 2 miles of refurbished or new streetscapes, expand the street grid, and promote transportation options to create a lively, walkable and transit-friendly district. Enhancing connections and open spaces to and along the waterfront. Incentivizing affordable housing to ultimately equal 20% of the district’s new residential units. WHAT IS IN THIS UPDATE DRAFT | October 19, 2020 DRAFT | October 19, 2020 ● ● ● ● In order to achieve the Vision, the 2016 SCW Plan set up three “frameworks” to guide future policy, programs, redevelopments, and public and private investments. These three frameworks - Physical Framework; Financial Framework; City Leadership Framework - provide clear directions while also offering flexibility to adapt to and incorporate future best practices, changing financial conditions in the public and private sector, and …

Existing streets are upgraded to Austin’s highest standard for complete streets and retrofitted with green infrastructure and utilities that facilitate more sustainable development. paired with quality urban design and an interconnected network of public spaces, streets, lakeside trails and parks. The elements addressed in the physical framework - circulation and connectivity, open space, sustainability and green infrastructure, and urban design - exist and function simultaneously as an integrated whole. However in this chapter, they are broken down into distinct elements to better explain how each component works, and which public and private entities might lead their respective implementation. 2016 SCW Physical Framework Plan consists of: Transportation Network (City led roadway catalysts, Developer Led Streets, City Led Improvements of Existing Streets) ● Open Spaces (Expanded Waterfront park and trail connections, City led catalyst open spaces Urban Design guidelines for incremental development ● ● 2016 SCW PHYSICAL FRAMEWORK KEY PLACEMAKING OPPORTUNITIES DRAFT | October 19, 2020 DRAFT | October 19, 2020 ● ● ● 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 2016 SCW Physical Framework Plan consists of: Transportation Network (City led roadway catalysts, Developer Led Streets, City Led Improvements of Existing Streets) Open Spaces (Expanded Waterfront park and trail connections, City led catalyst open spaces Urban Design guidelines for incremental development The Physical Framework identifies an interconnected network of public realm improvements in this district starting with: The expansion of waterfront open space on the Statesman site Adding new green streets, parks, plazas and enhancing existing natural areas along Bouldin Creek Completing the street network for a more pedestrian-oriented district Improving existing streets to support a multimodal transportation network.

The SCW Vision Framework Plan proposes an implementation approach that builds upon the following tenets: ● ● ● A shared vision: Buy in on shared vision for the area among key stakeholders: property owners, neighborhoods, the City, vested interest groups (e.g., affordable housing providers, open space entities). This includes the recognition that enhanced entitlements will be required to enable more robust private development that then provides a primary resource base for public realm and public purpose improvements, and expansion of affordable housing opportunities. Partnerships: The City envisions partnerships with developers to help pay for public realm improvements. This includes financial incentives and binding development agreements between City and property owners/developers about which parties are responsible for providing which public realm improvements. Phased Implementation: The City anticipates that improvements will be built in phases based on which owners/ developers are prepared to redevelop as well as the City’s ability to craft mutually beneficial development agreements. The potential implementation strategy could give preference for public resources to those property owners/developers prepared to move forward. THE SCW FINANCIAL FRAMEWORK UPDATE DRAFT | October 19, 2020 DRAFT | October 19, 2020 This section lays out the SCW District’s project costs and discusses a variety of public and private revenue streams that could help pay for the District’s project costs and projected buildout. ● District Project Costs: SCW FINANCIAL CALCULATOR The SCW FInancial Calculator is an Excel-based parcel-by-parcel proforma modeling tool that allows planners and policy and decision makers to evaluate multiple policy choices and their economic impacts. The SCW Plan’s Financial Framework provides a path to ensure that the SCW Vision can actually be funded and achieved. The financial analysis looks to how the impending wave of potential redevelopment can be leveraged for value capture and how public and private investments can be coordinated to realize the public realm improvements and affordable housing goals.

ARTS COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION 20201019.5.a Date: Subject: 10-19-20 Arts Commission Recommendation on the African-American Cultural Heritage District Revitalization and Cultural Historical Development Seconded By: Commissioner Michelle Polgar Motion By: Commissioner Lulu Flores Recommendation The Arts Commission requests that City Council reaffirm its designation of the African American Cultural Heritage District (AACHD) and commit to revitalization of the District through development and investment in historic, cultural and preservation projects, including the preservation and designation of the remaining two parcels of Urban Renewal Property (Lots 16 and 18 at the 1100 Block on East 11th Street) as cultural heritage property to be developed instead as cultural arts and music facilities that support the African American community and reflect their cultural heritage. Additionally, Council should direct City Manager and appropriate City Departments to make recommendations for such redevelopment and investment by developing a plan in coordination with the AACHD Investment Initiative and other private and public strategic partners. . Description of Recommendation to Council The Arts Commission, in support of the African American Cultural Heritage District (AACHD) Investment Initiative, recommends that City Council commit to the development of the remaining properties in historic East Black Austin within the boundaries of the AACHD in ways that address and preserve Black culture and that benefit the entire Austin community by creating a viable arts and cultural destination that drives cultural tourism and economic development in the District. This would include the dedication of Lot 16 and Lot 18 as cultural heritage property and their development as such. Revitalization of the AACHD would include the development of historic, cultural and preservation projects, institutions/facilities and activities; encourage the return of small, minority-owned businesses; and create a vibrant street and nightlife center that reflects the African American historic legacy of the District. City Manager would be directed to work with the various Departments to develop the necessary strategies to implement the following actions, expeditiously, and if feasible, immediately: • Update all official city Zoning Maps that show designated Cultural and Historic Districts and Landmarks to include the African American Cultural Heritage District (AACHD); • Develop an official detailed map specifically for the District by using the East Austin Historical Survey findings to designate cultural, historic, and heritage sites and landmarks within the District; add those locations to official maps; • Develop way-finding signage for public right-of-ways that provide directional guidance for locating the AACHD in general, and specific landmarks …

MUSIC COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION 20201019-2bi 10/19/1010 Date: Subject: Motioned By: Commissioner Reynolds Seconded By: Vice-chair Jonathan “Chaka” Mahone Recommendation Live Music Fund Working Group Recommendation 1. The Music Commission voted to support the Live Music Working Group recommendations to develop a framework for the effective use of Hotel Occupancy Tax funds, as appropriate for the commercial music sector by the City of Austin, for the enrichment of Austin Musicians, Music Venues and Music Tourism through sustainable investment. A copy of the report is attached as Exhibit A, Live Music Fund Recommendations. 2. City staff is encouraged to explore funding sources outside the City to supplement revenue generated by Hotel Occupancy Taxes. Recommendations for pursuing private philanthropy is attached as Exhibit B, Funding Model Observation and Recommendations. Description of Recommendation to Council 1. The Live Music Working Group recommends the creation of a citizen-led advisory board to govern the use of funds. The board, divided into subcommittees, will drive future board nominations, review board structure and responsibilities of sub-committees, pursue opportunities for private philanthropy, review grant criteria, metrics interface with a financial administrative body, and review grant proposals based on established criteria. The Fund should be administered by a local nonprofit organization having familiarity with Austin’s music community and demonstrated expertise in managing funding for various music and arts entities. 2. The Music Commission asks staff to research, identify, and pursue additional funding streams such as corporate philanthropy and public-private partnerships. The technology sector in particular is a logical avenue of support for Austin’s iconic yet struggling music economy. Rationale: 1. The ordinance effective September 30, 2019 allocates the use of hotel occupancy tax revenue to provide additional funds for local music and historic preservation. Specifically, of the additional two percent hotel occupancy tax for the Convention Center Expansion, an amount equal to 15% of the two percent assessment is allocated to the Live Music Fund for local music that meets the requirements of Texas Tax Code Section 351.101(a)(4) and that is not funded through the Cultural Arts Fund. Section 351.101 (a) (4) states the available uses as “the encouragement, promotion, improvement, and application of the arts, including instrumental and vocal music, dance, drama, folk art, creative writing, architecture, design and allied fields, painting, sculpture, photography, graphic and craft arts, motion pictures, radio, television, tape and sound recording, and other arts related to the presentation, performance, execution, and exhibition of these major …
