Dear Recipient, In May 2020, the City Council of the City of Austin passed a resolution regarding community resilience building and comprehensive resilience planning in order to create a more resilient Austin. As we work to amplify the City’s efforts universally to address societal shocks and stressors relevant to our community, we have begun to meet with community members so that together, we can begin to give shape to the comprehensive resilience planning effort of the City of Austin. I am writing to extend an invitation to your board, commission, or city group to attend our upcoming Community is Resilience event on December 16, 2020. At the event we will: 1) Provide an update on City of Austin resilience efforts, 2) Engage in interactive activities on shocks and stressors, and equity in comprehensive resilience planning. This event is part of a series of events with community members that will inform the focus and design of the City of Austin’s comprehensive resilience planning process. We invite you to send up to three members of your group to represent your group at this event.

From: Michael Harbers Sent: Tuesday, December 15, 2020 12:42 PM To: Rivera, Andrew <Andrew.Rivera@austintexas.gov> Subject: Dell's Children Medical Center North *** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Zoning and Platting Commission I am AGAINIST this proposed development. Concerns Traffic on Lakeline. Apartments and Hospital and Medical Buildings. The new routing of traffic is dangerous and surely is a temporary fix. Drive the intersection for your proof. I drive it daily and incur blocked lanes, mud, rock, debris on the roads. Along with merging lanes confusing drivers. The developers need to do a traffic study and then pay to have the roads and intersections constructed properly to handle the increase in traffic. What is the setback on building specifications from residential housing. We only have a 5 foot easement from our property. How far from that 5 ft easement will structures be set back or any improvement added? What is actually being built since it has changed from residential to commercial? Noise from air conditioning, back up alarms, burglar alarms, and any other mechanical systems it takes to operate all these different type of buildings? Like a Hostiptal, Medical Buildings, Apartment Complexes. Drainage issues with new roads, buildings, and all the concrete Thank You Michael Harbers 10408 Cannon Mark Way Austin, TX 78717

Transportation Criteria Manual Kiolbassa recommendations Bicycles As the bicycle program grows into a robust and well-organized plan, the Transportation Criteria Manual needs to reflect this. Speed humps are not mentioned in the current TCM and are only mentioned in reference to automobiles in the draft TCM (section 3.3.0) yet are starting to be used on neighborhood bikeways. Criteria should be established for determining when to employ speed humps because of their expense, their difficulty for some bicyclists, they slow bikes down and the challenge they may pose for emergency vehicles. Recommended criteria include: 1. Conducting a safety and speed study 2. Lower the posted speed limit first 3. Installing a speed hump only on the block where the speed has been measured because speed can vary on different segments of the road 4. Bike-car accidents 5. NACTO also recommends where “the neighborhood feels traffic speeds are too high and are supportive of speed management treatments.” Neighborhood bikeway intersections with arterials should be safe. Section 5.2 and Figure 5.4 of the draft TCM depicts intersections; they should include a requirement that the grade of the streets at the intersection should adhere to best practices, which is no more than 5%. (i.e. Seattle Right-Of-Way Improvements Manual) Sidewalks Incorporate current Subchapter E Section 2.2 sidewalk requirements for each type of roadway.

Building Criteria Manual & Plumbing Systems Testing Requirements Meeting Purpose For discussion and action on changes in how we test PVC drain, waste and vent systems. Proposed Changes Removing all air and vacuum testing allowances with the following exceptions: 1. In multi-story structures and occupied buildings where water damage could result from water testing leakages, an air test can be utilized. The air test must be conducted in accordance with all sections of A.S.T.M. designation F1417-11a. If the system is to be tested with air, a Class 1A diaphragm test gauge that is calibrated to an accuracy of ± 1 percent of the span must be utilized. See test gauge requirements in the plumbing code. 2. Other materials approved by pipe manufacturers for air testing 3. Non-human medical gas and vacuum systems 4. Vacuum manhole testing Reason For Proposed Changes 1. Potential life safety and property damage hazards associated with air expansion 2. Systems consistently over pressurized 3. No known manufacturer allows air testing 4. No published code allows for air testing 5. No known jurisdictions allow air testing other than Austin Facts About Air Testing ASTM F1417-11a is a standard for air testing PVC Air testing is supported by Uni-Bell PVC Pipe Association since 1998  These are the only known guidelines for air testing. Both methods have very specific, stringent guidelines and very limited applications. Neither are listed or approved by the Uniform or International Plumbing Codes. Air testing has been in the City of Austin ordinance since 1983 Facts About Air Testing Cont’d  Air testing is prohibited by all nationally accredited plumbing codes and all pipe manufacturers  There are no known occurrence of injuries caused by air testing of DWV lines utilizing PVC  There are documented occurrences of pressurized PVC causing injury when being used in compressed air lines, and OSHA prohibits their use in compressed air systems Outcome • Improved job site safety for plumbers, other workers and inspectors • Potential cost increase • Potential delayed inspections due to lack of water • Will require more water to be used Questions Board Action
