07-1: Barton Springs Bathhouse Change Order Request original pdf

Page 1 of 6 pages

03/14/2024 Women swimmers request an essential “change order” for the Barton Springs Pool Bathhouse Rehab For consideration by the Parks Board and Council Members 03/14/2024 Contact: Diana Prechter dianaprechter@gmail.com 512-922-0113 Page of 1 6 I have an update and a request regarding the Barton Springs Pool Bathhouse rehab design. Our self-appointed Women Swimmers Technical Advisory Group met with Director McNeeley, ACM Hayden-Howard and members of the bathhouse project team on 2/29/2024. Our swimmers’ YouTube video explaining our concerns and our reasonable proposals has now received 547 views. We are waiting to hear the response from ACM Hayden-Howard. However, we have one essential concern that we want to express to Council Members and the Parks Board. We are asking Council and the Parks Board to please ensure that the City Manager’s Office directs the project team to remove the SE corner family restroom proposed for the women’s shower and dressing area. Page of 2 6 The “red oval” is the open-air women’s shower in the middle of the courtyard. If family restroom #5 is intended to be used by families with young children, it violates the privacy of both the women showering and of the children. The men’s courtyard has no such family restroom opening into their showers. Please give women the same privacy. If family restroom #5 is intended to serve gender-fluid people, it fails the test because they have been forced to walk through the women’s corridor and showers. Let me explain why women’s safety is compromised by this corner location of a family restroom. Page of 3 6 Zilker Park is a metropolitan park that allows overnight parked vehicles. The pool and bathhouse offer select hours of free admission daily. The facility is open to the public from 5 am to 10 pm which includes many hours of darkness. I have often been in these showers, completely alone, on a dark summer night — once I was startled to find a man hiding by the toilets. I have been in these showers while there was a woman screaming, experiencing mental health issues. I have been here in the morning when feces were discovered in a shower from an overnight hidden guest. The existing women’s corridor family restroom is frequently abused. Lifeguards are tasked with cleaning a family restroom when it looks like a crime scene with blood, feces and needles. Staff has explained to us: If they don’t …

ASIAN AMERICAN QUALITY-OF-LIFE ADVISORY COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION 20240319-011 Date: March 19, 2024 Subject: Recommendation on the FY 2024-25 Budget related to Austin Public Health Immigrant Legal Services Motioned by: Commissioner Satyajeet Dodia Seconded By: Commissioner Zahra Shakur Jamal-Hassan Austin Public Health Immigrant Legal Services Description The Asian American Quality-of-Life Advisory Commission (AAQoL) strongly recommends continued funding for the Austin Public Health (APH) Immigrant Legal Services program in the FY 2024-25 budget. This program plays a critical role in supporting the well-being of Austin's immigrant population. APH Immigrant Legal Services currently has 2 contracts in place for American Gateways and 1 contract in place for Catholic Charities, all of which are set to expire at the end of the current fiscal year. The recent closure of Refugee Services of Texas has further reduced options for legal immigration assistance available in the community for refugees, many of whom are from Asian and Middle Eastern countries. Currently, we are aware that American Gateways does not have sufficient resources to serve those needing immigrant legal services and has a waitlist. We strongly recommend continued funding for the APH Immigrant Legal Services program at a level that allows it to meet the growing needs of Austin's immigrant population. Contractors for this program provide critical legal assistance to immigrants in Austin. The program helps immigrants navigate the complex legal system, with a focus on areas like citizenship, deportation defense, and access to public benefits. Recommendation Ongoing funding of $700,000 is recommended to continue services currently being provided along with a suggested $150,000 increase to meet community legal needs from the closure of nonprofits serving refugees in our community.

ASIAN AMERICAN QUALITY-OF-LIFE ADVISORY COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION 20240319-010 Date: March 19, 2024 Subject: Recommendation on the FY 2024-25 Budget for an Equity Office Data Analyst Associate position Motioned by: Vice Chair Sarah Chen Equity Office Data Analyst Associate position Seconded By: Commissioner Sonny Sin Description Data Equity for the Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) communities is a pressing issue that affects and informs the services we receive or do not. It is defined by the group AAPI Data as 1) inclusion and incorporation of community expertise and research expertise to 2) ensure equity in all stages and aspects of data and research, including: ● design and development ● collection, compilation, processing, ● analysis, dissemination, and preservation The AAQoL has received various staff and program presentations since our creation and one of the leading trends we see is that there is very little data collection that speaks to the nuances of how or if our broad AANHPI community is served. A Data Analyst Associate FTE position is recommended to be added to the Equity Office to complement the work they are doing with a data analyst associate that can assist in helping the Equity Office stay up to date on national data equity trends, assist with data analysis that can provide deeper insight into systematic issues and trends in available City data, and/or consult with other departments on data equity models and trends. Recommendation An ongoing amount of $95,000 is recommended to cover 1 Data Analyst Associate FTE. Department Equity Office Vote: 12-0 Alignment with Council Strategic Priorities Government that works for all; Equity of City programs and resource allocation For: Chair Hanna Huang, Vice Chair Sarah Chen, Commissioners Satyajeet Dodia, Padmini Jambulapati, Anna Lan, Pierre Nguyen, Sabrina Sha, Zahra Shakur Jamal-Hassan, Nayer Sikder, Seonhye “Sonny” Sin, Luan Tran, and Lily Trieu Against: None Abstain: None Absent: Commissioners Mohsin Lari and Kuo Yang Attest: ______________________________ Eric Anderson, Staff Liaison

ASIAN AMERICAN QUALITY-OF-LIFE ADVISORY COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION 20240319-015 Date: March 19, 2024 Subject: Recommendation on the FY 2024-25 Budget for the We All Belong Austin Against Hate Campaign Motioned by: Commissioner Pierre Nguyen We All Belong Austin Against Hate Campaign Seconded By: Commissioner Sonny Sin Description July 2023, the City launched an anti-hate education and outreach initiative called “We All Belong” to streamline access to tools to report hate crimes and incidents, making it easier for community members to keep Austin safe. This was during a disturbing upward trend that has continued in hate crimes in the city that were anti-Semitic, racist, and homophobic and was as directed by council in a 2021 resolution. Just in February of this year, a stabbing attack in West Campus of a group of South Asians was classified as a hate crime after the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) issued a wide- alert about the context around the crime and held a press release at City Hall following it. Prior to that, news reports did not mention the use of racial slurs and targeting of the victim, who is Palestinian American. Our commission sees the continued need for the We All Belong Austin against the hate campaign and wants to see it continue its reach to along with staying current and updated with current news communities targeted disproportionately for their race, ethnicity, or religion. Recommendation $350,000 in one-time funding is recommended to sustain the program and campaign Department Communications & Public Information Office Alignment with Council Strategic Priorities Government that works for all; Equity of City programs and resource allocation, Safety, Proactive Prevention, Community Trust & Relationships Vote: 12-0 For: Chair Hanna Huang, Vice Chair Sarah Chen, Commissioners Satyajeet Dodia, Padmini Jambulapati, Anna Lan, Pierre Nguyen, Sabrina Sha, Zahra Shakur Jamal-Hassan, Nayer Sikder, Sonny Sin, Luan Tran, and Lily Trieu Against: None Abstain: None Absent: Commissioners Mohsin Lari and Kuo Yang Attest: ______________________________ Eric Anderson, Staff Liaison
