Observing Intersex Awareness Day annually on October 26th. 2. Affirming and advocating for intersex people’s right to have control over their medical decisions, to be free from medically unnecessary surgeries and interventions, and to have access to psychological and peer support systems. 3. Appointing intersex people to City boards and commissions. 4. Amending Article 1 of the Bylaws of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer Quality of Life Advisory Commission to read: “The name of the board is Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Intersex Quality of Life Advisory Commission.” 5. Amending Article 2 of the Bylaws of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer Quality of Life Advisory Commission to replace all uses of the acronym “LGBTQ” with the acronym “LGBTQI.” 6. Amending the last sentence of Article 3 Section F of the Bylaws of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer Quality of Life Advisory Commission to replace the use of “his/her” with “their.” 7. Amending Article 8 Section A of the Bylaws of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer Quality of Life Advisory Commission to read: “The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Intersex Quality of Life Advisory Commission will have no committees.” Rationale 1.

People are born with these differences or develop them in childhood. There are many possible differences in genitalia, hormones, internal anatomy, or chromosomes.

One in two thousand babies (approximately 1.7% of the population) are born intersex, which equates to more than 16,000 people in the City of Austin.

Even though intersex is about physical anatomy, anatomy is not the same Page 1 of 3 8. thing as gender. Lots of intersex people do describe their gender as male or female. Intersex people face very similar issues to LGBTQ people. Some, but not all, intersex people are also LGBTQ. Intersex people are told they are “disordered,” just like LGBTQ people have been told for decades. Homophobia and transphobia are the reasons behind many of the problems intersex people face. It is critical that LGBTQ people work with intersex people to combat these systems of oppression and advocate for quality of life for everyone in the LGBTQI community.

Hill House Relocation Proposal Villas on Rio, LP plans to develop the property located at 2110 Nueces St. A 19 story student housing tower will be built at the site. Currently, the Hill House is located at 2104 Nueces St. Multiple high rise towers have recently been built in the vicinity of the Hill House. Villas on Rio, LP is proposing to relocate the Hill House one block away to 22nd St., an area with multiple historic houses. If the Hill House remains in its current location, there will be high rise towers on all sides. Villas on Rio, LP would like to showcase the house instead of having it hidden by high rise towers. Hill House in Relation to Future Developments The Hill House is currently located at 2104 Nueces St. This location is being overshadowed by high rise student housing. If the Hill House is moved, it would be highlighted in a prominent location with similar houses. Surrounded by High Rise Towers In its current location, the Hill House will be surrounded by 17-19 story student housing towers. These towers will completely wrap the house, making it appear hidden in shadows and out of place. Hill House Relocation Villas on Rio, LP is proposing to relocate the Hill House to 22nd St., adjacent the White Springfield House. The 22nd St. allows the Hill House to be more visible, instead of being overpowered by high rise towers. Access to the house will be better because of less pedestrian traffic. Hill House Proposed Site Plan This site plan reflects the proposed Hill House relocation to the west side of White Springfield House. There is ample room for the relocation, and the large trees will remain. Hill House Rendering The Hill House will be moved to a prominent location which highlights the historic houses along 22nd St. Description of Remodel: • Leveling Foundation • • Structural Repairs Siding Repairs • Railing Repairs • Re-Paint Hill House Current Photos Intersection of 22nd St and Nueces St Intersection of 22nd St and Nueces St Intersection of 22nd St and Rio Grande St Intersection of 22nd St and Rio Grande St
Thank you so much for getting this on the agenda! The increase in crime we have seen around campus in the past few months is unbelievable. The residents do not feel safe and we would like to fence off the perimeter of the property to insure their safety. Attached is a site plan w/ the proposed fencing outlined. Also below are examples photos of the proposed fencing. If you have any initial feedback I am all ears. I would like to get this through HLC this month so that we can install the fence right away. Steck House is a meticulously maintained property and will remain so. We are just very concerned about crime in the area and would like to secure the premises as soon as possible. Thank you very much Steve. Cater Joseph Proposed steel picket fencing material, pickets with crushed spear tops Proposed chain link fencing materials Proposed covered entry gate example

Item 14: Communication to Commissioner Hadden re Line Clearance From: Vice, Jeffrey (Jeff) Sent: Tuesday, September 08, 2020 4:00 PM To: Hadden, Karen - BC <bc-Karen.Hadden@austintexas.gov> Cc: 'Hopkins, Marty' <martyhopkins@eversheds-sutherland.com>; Hopkins, Marty - BC <BC- Marty.Hopkins@austintexas.gov>; 'Karen Hadden' <karendhadden@gmail.com> Subject: EUC Follow-up Commissioner Hadden, At the EUC’s last meeting, during the Future Agenda Items discussion, you requested 1) some additional information/responses to questions re line clearance and herbicidal use; and 2) an update regarding electrification of the heavy-duty vehicles in the Austin Energy fleet (e.g., bucket trucks). Chair Hopkins and I reviewed the agenda for September, noting that it contained a briefing you had previously requested (from Office of Sustainability), as well as a long-delayed update on the SHINES project (requested by Commissioner Tuttle)…plus the 3rd Quarter Financial Report postponed from last meeting. Recognizing that this month we wouldn’t be able to take up your two concerns above, we wanted to 1) provide you with information that I hope will satisfy your request for additional information re line clearance…and 2) explain that we will schedule a fleet electrification update in the months to come (the last update was provided to EUC Nov 2019). Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Best, Jeff Herbicide Use in Line Clearance Activities a) Treatment or removal of dead vines information is located on the Austin Energy Website Tree Pruning (https://austinenergy.com/ae/residential/residential-services/tree-pruning/tree-pruning) FAQs section (https://austinenergy.com/ae/residential/residential-services/tree-pruning/faqs) regarding vines on utility poles (snap shot attached). In light of your concerns, we intend to change the verbiage from “treat” to “apply an EPA-approved herbicide to the base of the vine.” To clarify, AE/AE’s contractors will remove only vines from poles and not the remaining dead vines that may stretch out along a fence or into surrounding flora. b) You thought perhaps there was a prohibition of pesticide use at the City of Austin; we could not locate any such policy banning pesticide or herbicide use. Rather, the City maintains an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) plan (http://www.austintexas.gov/ipm) which is included in Austin Energy’s forestry contract solicitations (language excerpt provided below). 1 NOTE: The Contractor shall be responsible for all record keeping regarding pesticide application as required by the TDA Rules and Regulations and the City’s Integrated Pest Management (IPM) plan. The Contractor shall abide by the City’s IPM plan when using any general use chemicals, including fertilizer, herbicide or other chemicals, and shall obtain written approval …

This duty does not supersede, replace, or substitute for the appeal procedures provided to customers in the City Utility Service Regulations.
