ATPID Service Plan — original pdf
Version 2 Austin Tourism Public Improvement District (ATPID) DRAFT Service Plan Re vise d : Se p te m b e r 6, 20 23 District Name The name of the district shall be the Austin Tourism Public Improvement District (ATPID or District). District Location The ATPID will be located wholly within the City of Austin, Texas (City), a Texas home rule municipality. The proposed boundaries of the proposed ATPID are as shown on the attached map marked Exhibit “A” and includes hotel properties that may be non-contiguous with one hundred (100) or more rooms within the City of Austin. Purpose of the ATPID The purpose of the ATPID will be to provide funding for special supplemental services relating to increased marketing, sales initiatives and sales incentives to retain and secure existing and new meetings, sporting and other events, and conventions at the Austin Convention Center (ACC) and the Palmer Event Center (PEC), sales incentives to retain and secure additional citywide, transient and group business at individual District hotels, and research to assess the impact of the ATPID marketing and sales initiatives, all with the purpose of increasing the demand for hotel activity within the District. Method of Assessment The ATPID assessment will be levied on hotel properties located within the ATPID with 100 or more rooms ordinarily used for sleeping. The annual assessment rate for all hotel properties within the District shall be two percent (2%) of gross taxable room night rental revenue, which reflects the special benefits accruing to the hotel properties because of the services provided by the ATPID funding. The ATPID assessment shall only apply to hotel room night sales which are subject to local hotel occupancy tax under Texas state law. If a room night rental transaction is exempt from local hotel occupancy tax, it is also exempt from the application of the ATPID assessment. The estimated ten (10) year ATPID service plan is shown in the table below. Revenue growth is estimated at 7.5% or more each year in order to maximize the likelihood the ATPID can Page 1 of 12 access all potential revenues during each fiscal year. It is possible that the actual revenues each year will be less than this projection.

Item 3- City Manager social services funding memo to City Council — original pdf
MEMORANDUM To: From: Date: Mayor and City Council T.C. Broadnax, City Manager December 17, 2025 Subject: Social Services Funding Update The purpose of this memorandum is to provide information to the Mayor and City Council about the social services contract budget. During the Fiscal Year 2026 Budget Process and Adoption, a re- allocation of social services was approved. Director Kerri Lang informed Mayor and City Council that we would need to reduce the social services budget in Economic Development, Municipal Court/Community Court, and Public Health by 10% and re-allocate Homeless Strategies and Operations by 4%. As part of this adjustment, limited resources will be aligned with Homeless Strategies and Operations to address immediate operational requirements, while maintaining a balanced and coordinated approach across the full continuum of social service investments. The total General Fund social services contract budget for FY26 is $74.2M. The total reallocation of social services contracts for FY26 is $5,277,003. Below is the breakdown by department: Department Name Economic Development Homeless Strategies & Operations Municipal Court/Austin Community Court Public Health Total Amount Reduced/Reallocated $451,859 $1,457,200 $629,565 $2,738,379 $5,277,003 The attached Social Services Contract List shows each department’s contract list including vendor, program/project name, the original funding amount, reduced funding amount, and the new contract amount. As we start the process for the FY27 Budget Process, we anticipate a $16.8 million reduction to the social services contract budget. In addition to the contracts included in the social services contracts budget, we will conduct an inventory of all contracts and grants across all departments that provide social or community Date: Subject: December 17, 2025 Social Services Funding Update services and are funded by departments through their operating budget. Our goal is to: • Have a centralized record of all City funding that supports social and community services in the City of Austin. • Determine if we have any duplication of service(s) and/or can realize efficiencies by merging similar agreements. • Review the performance measures and return on investments. • Identify services that can be funded by other taxing entities and partners. Staff will provide an update at the Public Health Committee meeting held on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, at 10 a.m. We will begin our discussion with Mayor and City Council about the process for future potential reductions and have asked all council members to attend this meeting if their schedule will allow to start the discussion about priorities. …

TO: FROM: DATE: MEMORANDUM Airport Advisory Commissioners Rajeev Thomas, Chief Financial Officer, Austin Aviation January 14, 2026 SUBJECT: Austin-Bergstrom International Airport Financial Update November 2025 Financial Results Passenger and aircraft activity in November 2025 increased compared to the prior year because of growth in air service. Daily departures grew 7% to 256 in November 2025, continuing the prior month’s trend, driven by growth from Delta, Southwest, and Frontier. As a result, passenger traffic increased 3% and landed weights increased 6% compared to the prior year. Cargo volume decreased 9% due to adjustments in air cargo carrier strategies and a decline year over year in belly freight volume. Table #1 FY 2026 FY 2025 Variance November November Fav (Unfav) FY 2026 YTD FY 2025 YTD Variance YTD Fav (Unfav) Enplanements Landing Weights Cargo Tonnage Operating Revenue Airport OPEX Total Requirements Net Income 924,382 892,589 3.6% 1,961,334 1,841,540 1,136,440,976 1,069,633,500 6.2% 2,374,172,716 2,227,054,777 10,603 11,631 (8.8%) 24,298 25,241 6.5% 6.6% (3.7%) $35,835,414 $28,081,264 $7,754,150 $75,300,094 $59,308,756 $15,991,338 $13,712,234 $13,949,835 $237,601 $26,983,882 $26,166,087 ($817,795) $22,537,808 $21,658,143 ($879,664) $44,729,568 $41,297,716 ($3,431,852) $13,297,606 $6,423,120 $6,874,486 $30,570,526 $18,011,040 $12,559,486 Operating revenue increased 28% compared to the prior year and is comprised of 58% airline revenue and 42% non-airline revenue. The increase in operating revenue is mostly driven by increased airline rates and charges in FY2026 resulting from a new rates and charges methodology in the bridge airline use and lease agreement. Airline revenue streams increased 45% due to the escalated rates and growth in aircraft activity. Non- airline revenue streams increased 10% due to strong passenger traffic and increased parking rates. Airport operating expenses declined 2% compared to November 2024 due to the timing of annual employee gainsharing payments in the prior year. Gainsharing payments were distributed in November in FY25 and in December in FY26. When adjusted to remove the gainsharing payments from the prior year, November 2025 operating expenses increased 14% because of growth in personnel cost and increased maintenance expenses. Improvement in employee vacancy rate and across the board wage adjustments drove increased personnel cost. The increase in maintenance expenses are driven by increased utilities costs, plumbing/electrical augmented staffing, and elevated preventative maintenance costs. Debt service cost increased 17% in November 2025 because a portion of the debt service cost in the prior year was offset by the application of the balance of interest earned from proceeds. Other requirements increased 6% because of …
