• Project: AFD 8/EMS 7 & EMS 5 Project • Artist(s): Luis Angulo • Phase: Final Design Review • Sponsoring Department: Austin Fire Department and Emergency Medical Services • Project Budget: $100,000 • Council District: District 4 (AFD 8/ EMS 7) and District 7 (EMS 5) • Project Manager: Ryan Runcie AIPP PANEL MEETING AGENDA ITEM #8 DATE: 10/07/2024 AFD 8/EMS 7 EMS 5 AFD 8 / EMS 7 Mural Contract Deliverables COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AFD 8, EMS 7, EMS 5 (1) A description of the results of the Community Engagement Plan, and how they are incorporated into the Final Design. During the Summer of 2021 I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to participate in ride alongside with AFD 8 and EMS 7. During these 8-12 hour shifts of which there were 4 of them, I got to closely observe what a shift as a first responder looks like. All of the personal were very welcoming and I was able to ask as many questions as I wanted. When I went in to this expertience I had very little understanding of the culture and day to day life of first responders when they are on a shift. Not only did I have the opportunity to be at the stations, but I also went on many calls with both fire and EMS. The designs I am submitting are based on the many hours of ride alongside I go to partake in which total over 72 hours. My community engagement consisted in sharing this time with EMS and AFD, and discussing around the dinner table at times, what type of art or imagery would be inspiring for them to see. Some of the feedback I got included: No images alluding to being heroes, no stressful images of first responders on a call, no direct reference to current staff members, a show of the diversity found in the departments, uplifting imagery, inspiring imagery, a reflection of the bond and comrederie and nothing abstract. After several rounds of submitting designs and as result of feedback and the information above the final design I am submitting I feel very strongly reflects the wishes of the community of AFD and EMS.

Community Services Program Austin Convention Center Department 500 E. Cesar Chavez Street Austin, Texas 78701 Dear Mr. Harrison and Ms. Nickerson-Adams, I am writing to advocate strongly for the preservation of “Riffs and Rhythms”, the mosaic public art work installed at the Austin Convention Center. This was a major work commissioned by the City of Austin and Art in Public Places and was installed in the recently constructed convention center in 1996. The City of Austin accepted the work, “Riffs and Rhythms”, into the Art in Public Places permanent collection that same year. This is a special designation because it places works of civic and cultural importance under the protection and stewardship of a major city with the resources and responsibilities of a municipal government. It is a special distinction that recognizes that a work of art should have a permanent presence in a city and in the lives of its citizens and visitors. It acknowledges a responsibility for the art work. This responsibility is obviously more moral and ethical than legal because all public art contracts include clauses to protect and …

10/11/24 C20-2022-0025 ORDINANCE AMENDMENT REVIEW SHEET Amendment: C20-2022-0025, Land Development Code Amendment to Title 25-7 Drainage Description: Consider an ordinance regarding amendments to Title 25 related to adequate protections to the Colorado River downstream of the Longhorn Dam. Proposed Language: To revise 25-7-32(B)(2) to establish the erosion hazard zone of the Colorado River downstream of the Longhorn Dam as 200 feet from the ordinary high water mark, with exceptions for trails. See Attachment A. Summary of proposed code changes: The proposed code change would expand the Erosion Hazard Zone associated with the Colorado River downstream of the Longhorn Dam to 200 feet from the ordinary high-water mark (federally defined river bank). The existing Erosion Hazard Zone is measured 100 feet from the ordinary high-water mark. Staff are proposing exceptions to this requirement for hard-surfaced trails. Background: This ordinance responds to Council Resolution No. 20220609-061, which initiated Land Development Code amendments related to environmental, drainage, and landscape requirements. A previous ordinance addressed many of the elements of this resolution, but certain proposed changes were not adopted at the time so that staff could conduct additional analyses and community outreach. The proposed ordinance addresses direction to staff to “evaluate the effectiveness of the existing Critical Water Quality Zone and Erosion Hazard Zone buffers on the Colorado River downstream of the Longhorn dam and to propose protections that will provide adequate protections to the river that will ensure a healthy riparian corridor to stabilize the riverbank and protect property from erosion.” Board and Commission Actions: October 16, 2024: Codes and Ordinances Joint Committee action is pending. November 6, 2024: Environmental Commission action is pending. November 12, 2024: Planning Commission action is pending. Council Action: June 9, 2022: City Council approved Resolution No. 20220609-061, initiating amendments to Title 25 related to environmental, drainage, and landscape requirements. December 12, 2024: City Council action is pending.
