New World Screwworm NWS Data and images from TAHC, USDA, TVMA Animal Advisory Commission July 13, 2026 Dr. Debbie Elliott Cochliomyia hominivorax ➢The larvae of the fly are obligate parasites that only infest living tissue of warm- blooded animals, including livestock, wildlife, pets, humans and birds (rarely), causing a condition known as myiasis ➢ • Hominivorax = “man” eater ➢• Often fatal to the infested animal Larvae ❖Screwworm refers to the screw-like shape of the larvae and the way the larva burrows into the flesh. ❖Larvae are parasitic consuming living flesh for 5-7 days then fall off the host to pupate in the ground. ❖This is the stage that we may see them in the wounds of living animals. ❖Once the animal is deceased, the larvae detect the cooler body temperature and will fall off the host and pupate on the ground, despite the age of the larvae. TAHC Lifecycle What We May See • Maggots or egg clusters in wounds of live animals • Requires notification of DVM immediately. (delay in treatment is fatal) • Treatment options: FDA Approved: Capstar, NexGard Combo (cats), Nexgard, Credelio. • Isoxazolines – Simparica, Bravecto (Expulsion and larvicidal) • Immediate wound management and removal of larvae Reportable • Domestic Animals - reportable disease to the TX Animal Health Commission by the veterinarians • Wildlife reporting and collection is to the TX Parks & Wildlife Dept biologist Current Location and Spread Since July 12 Current Outbreak Mexico Dogs 0.002% Cats 0.000052 % Thank you!

Annual Internal Review 7/1/2025 to 6/30/2026 Name of Board or Commission Animal Advisory Commission Has the board or commission's actions throughout the year complied with City Council directives and bylaws? Yes. If No, please explain N/A. How many recommendations did your board or commission approve? The Commission approved 10 recommendations during the July 2025 through June 2026 review period. Please list the recommendation numbers. 20250714-010 20250811-007 20251013-008 20260309-004 20260309-005 20260309-006 20260309-007 20260413-006 20260511-009 20260608-008 Which recommendations are closely aligned to the organization's core mission and why? All recommendations are aligned with the Commission’s core mission to advise City Council and Travis County Commissioners Court on animal shelter compliance, animal welfare policies, budget priorities, collaboration, communication within the animal welfare community, and the development of animal welfare programs. The most directly aligned recommendations are those addressing shelter operations, humane care, live outcome support, staffing, enrichment, adoption access, pet retention, community cats, breed labeling, and animal welfare policy: 20250714-010, 20250811-007, 20260309-004, 20260309-005, 20260309-006, 20260309-007, 20260413-006, 20260511-009, and 20260608- 008. Which recommendations are adjacent to the organization's core mission and why? Recommendation 20251013-008, Bird Friendly Design, is adjacent but still relevant because it addresses broader animal welfare and wildlife protection through City policy and built- environment practices. Pet Friendly Housing (20260413-006) also intersects with housing policy but remains closely connected to animal shelter intake prevention and pet retention. Please share any further context that could support or explain your recommendations. During the review period, the Commission received regular Austin Animal Services briefings, reviewed shelter data and outcome reports, received public comment, considered budget needs, discussed shelter capacity and animal care concerns, and used working groups to develop policy recommendations. Recurring themes included shelter overcrowding, live outcomes, animal enrichment, staffing stability, pet retention, adoption access, community cats, data transparency, off-leash dogs, and responsible animal welfare policy. Is there another body that overlaps with the role and work of the board or commission you serve? Yes. If yes, which body? Austin Animal Services, Austin City Council, Travis County Commissioners Court, and related City departments or advisory bodies when policy issues intersect with housing, public health, parks, wildlife, or environmental design. Please explain their alignment. The Animal Advisory Commission provides focused public input and policy recommendations related to animal welfare. Austin Animal Services implements shelter operations and programs. City Council and Travis County Commissioners Court make policy and budget decisions. Other boards or departments may overlap …

ESB-MACC ADVISORY BOARD MEETING MINUTES JUNE 3, 2026 EMMA S. BARRIENTOS MEXICAN AMERICAN CULTURAL CENTER REGULAR MEETING MINUTES WEDNESDAY, JUNE 3, 2026 The Emma S. Barrientos Mexican American Cultural Center (ESB-MACC) convened in a Regular meeting on June 3, 2026, at 301 W. 2nd Street in Austin, Texas.

Barrientos Mexican American Cultural Center Meeting to order at 6:10 p.m. Board Members in Attendance: Angelica Navarro, Lillian “Lily” Zamarripa-Saenz, Hilario “Larry” Amaro, Alexander “Al” Duarte, John Estrada, Cynthia “Cy” Herrera. Board Members in Attendance Remotely: Noemi Castro (arrived at 6:32 p.m.). Board Members Absent: Lynda Quintana, Raul “Roy” Reyna, Selma Sanchez. PUBLIC COMMUNICATION: GENERAL Speaker 1: Anita Quintanilla, an Austin resident, addressed the board, emphasizing the historical significance of Indigenous, Mexican, and Mexican Americans in Texas. She expressed her belief that the terms “Hispanic,” “Latino,” and Latinx” do not accurately reflect history. Ms. Quintanilla stated that she believed the center’s focus should remain on Mexican American history and culture. Speaker 2: Hector Ordaz Gutiérrez, a member of the Arts and Culture Working Group with the Hispanic/Latino Quality of Life Resource Advisory Commission and Arts Commission, addressed the board to share information from the commission’s most recent meeting. He explained that a proposed cross-commission working group was discussed but ultimately tabled due to restrictions preventing commissioners from serving on multiple commissions simultaneously. He noted that the Chair of the Arts Commission supported exploring alternative pathways, including the potential formation of a City Council-authorized working group composed of commissioners. Mr. Ordaz encouraged the Advisory Board to support the concept through City Council engagement or by adding the item to a future agenda for discussion. Speaker 3: Luis Ordaz Gutiérrez, Co-founder and Artistic Director of ProyectoTeatro provided comments in support of the proposed cross-commission working group, stressing the need for formal structure to streamline communication and align recommendations across commissions on shared cultural priorities. He stated there was support from multiple commissions for establishing a working group and encouraged the board to place the item on a future agenda for further discussion. APPROVAL OF MINUTES 1.

Project Summary: The Pease Elementary School building dates from 1876, one of the first schools built with public funds in Texas. The building was expanded in 1895, 1896, 1916 and 1926, and remodeled in 1949. The school building is three stories, load bearing masonry construction with a stucco exterior finish applied to the masonry walls. The building was designated as a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark in 2013 and is a contributing structure to the West Austin Downtown National Register Historic District, designated in 2024. The primary goals of the Pease Elementary School rehabilitation project are to prepare the building for use as an early childhood learning center on the lower two floors and as office space on the upper floor. Goodwill Austin will operate the early childhood learning center, and United Way for Greater Austin will occupy the office spaces. The project will be completed in two primary construction phases. Phase I, included in these review materials, addresses conditions at the building exterior. Phase II, not included in these review materials, addresses conditions at the building interior and the site and grounds. The exterior work to be done under the Phase I project includes: • Remove existing exterior fire stairs and replace with new exterior fire stairs • Window and exterior door replacement • Downspout replacement • Limited repairs to existing roof, in the areas of new penetrations through the existing roof • Limited repairs to existing stucco coating, in the areas where window, exterior door and fire stair replacement occurs • Exterior painting of stucco coating East Elevation North Elevation West Elevation South Elevation West Elevation, detail West Elevation, detail West Elevation, detail South Elevation, detail South Elevation, detail South Elevation, detail South Elevation, detail South Elevation, detail South Elevation, detail

Existing 1920s structure converted into tri-plex on 4,356sf lot. Owner wishes to demolish existing structure and build a new single family or duplex residence. Existing Conditions 1 1209 W 8TH STREETINITIAL ASSESSMENT FOR DESIGN| The September 2025 inspection of 1209 W 8th Street confirms that a century of use, combined with its conversion into a three-unit rental property, has left the structure in a state of pervasive disrepair. The building’s physical condition reflects decades of deferred maintenance and structural neglect that have progressed beyond the point of reasonable repair. Taken together, these findings— foundation movement, structural roof failures, universally failed mechanical systems, and documented fire and safety hazards—reflect deficiencies that go well beyond routine wear, the product of decades without coordinated investment across a property whose rental configuration has left maintenance responsibility fragmented and neglect compounding across units. The building’s multi-unit rental history has compounded these problems: successive tenants made ad hoc alterations without coordinated oversight, accelerating deterioration of shared systems, stairwells, and load-bearing elements beyond what routine wear would predict.
