February 1, 2022: Postponed to March 1, 2022. March 1, 2022: DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: This house would have contributed to the Air-Conditioned Village National Register Historic District, presented to the State Board of Review for the National Register of Historic Places in September 2021. For further information, see the draft nomination at https://www.thc.texas.gov/public/upload/preserve/national_register/ draft_nominations/Austin%2C%20Air%20Conditioned%20Village%20SBR.pdf. Due to owner opposition to the creation of the district, the nomination failed to move forward. However, this setback does not reflect on the significance of Austin’s Air-Conditioned Village experiment, and the Chrysler Air-Temp House is one of the best-preserved examples of the houses built and studied. Excerpts from the nomination are incorporated herein as relevant for context. This case initially came before the Historic Landmark Commission in June 2020 for a full demolition. The applicant in the 2020 case reconsidered their application for full demolition and submitted plans for a partial demolition and retention of the character-defining features of this house; those plans were reviewed and approved by the Commission. This proposal would have preserved much of the street façade of the house, replacing deteriorated materials in-kind or with a visually compatible modern material, and an addition to the back in what promised to be a sensitive rehabilitation and adaptive reuse of the house. The Commission initiated historic zoning on the house during the pendency of the preparation of those plans, and satisfied that the plans would preserve the character of the house, dropped the …

Hi Andrew, Please include the following notes in the backup for B-05 West William Cannon Housing: The Imagine Austin policies referenced as applicable to this case omit the following Imagine Austin references pertinent to proposals for potential zoning changes in the Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone: LUT P21. Ensure that redevelopment in the Edwards Aquifer’s recharge and contributing zones maintains the quantity and quality of recharge of the aquifer. LUT P22. Protect Austin’s natural resources and environmental systems by limiting land use and transportation development in sensitive environmental areas and preserving areas of open space. CE P2. Conserve Austin’s natural resources systems by limiting development in sensitive environmental areas, including the Edwards Aquifer, its contributing and recharge zones, and endangered species habitat. CFS P12. Maintain or enhance the existing rate of recharge in the Edward’s Aquifer. Additionally, please note that according to the City’s own Imagine Austin Indicator Dashboard (regarding Priority Program 2 – Sustainably Manage our Water Resources), we are heading in the “wrong direction” when it comes to development within the Edwards Aquifer zones (https://data.austintexas.gov/stories/s/Sustainably- Manage-Our-Water-Resources/iv2t-ch3h). The data reflects that approximately a quarter of the development that has occurred since 2008 has been in the City’s portion of the Edwards Aquifer and that over 50% of the Recharge Zone within the city is developed. With appreciation, Commissioner Thompson

Zoning and Platting Commission Austin Strategic Mobility Plan recommendations Transparency: Property owners whose frontage is listed for potential Right-Of-Way acquisition should be notified in their primary language before the City Council vote. Advance notice would prevent owners and tenants not realizing their property was targeted for potential procurement, like with the September 3, 2020, City Council vote on property acquisition for the Corridor Construction Program, until after the fact. Since the ASMP amendments are intended to be an alignment of existing city documents, specify which criteria, code, rules or documents bolster the proposed changes. ASMP technical changes should increase accountability, predictability and provide a better understanding of the rationales behind any changes. Provide definitions of terms. Minimize the impact: Increase the Right-Of-Way only when needed for specific, planned projects and when the required width is stated in the Transportation Criteria Manual. Make technical changes only for projects proposed in the Bike and Sidewalk Master Plans. Given that the ASMP team publicly states that changes are not imminent, and that plans can change (as these ASMP amendments attest), ask for only what is necessary. Austin is at the heart of Flash Flood Alley: Do not increase impervious cover by expanding Right-Of-Way in flood zones or areas with a documented history or increased potential, pending the completion of a study, of localized flooding. Require drainage studies for Right-of-Way acquisition of more than 4,000 square feet through individual or combined parcels. Equity: Include the Equity Office to ensure vulnerable communities are provided safe and equal access to all forms of mobility – pedestrian, bike, vehicle, and public transportation. The input of the Equity Office must provide guidance to ensure public transportation is affordable to all residents and adjusted based on their income while also protecting them from displacement. All public transportation locations must provide shelter from rain and sun, include lighting at night for safety.

MEMORANDUM ______ February 2, 2022 Boards and Commissions Kerri Lang, FSD - Budget Officer FY 2022-23 Budget Process and Calendar TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Resident and stakeholder feedback on budget priorities, including input from the City’s various boards and commissions, remains a key component of the annual budget development process. The FY 2021-22 Budget included investments in community priorities such as, critical infrastructure, cultural and creative spaces, and a renewal in our commitment to advancing progress within the transformative Reimagining Public Safety (RPS) framework. Since the 3.5% tax revenue cap took effect in FY 2020-21, the City has implemented measures aimed at flattening the organization’s cost curve, as well as identifying potential new revenue streams. These measures have helped allow the City to propose a balanced budget. However, the financial outlook for the City continues to project expenditures exceeding revenue. Thus, it remains crucial to focus recommendations and to provide feedback on the efficiency, equity, and effectiveness of the City’s existing services and programs. As in previous years, the Budget Office will coordinate with City departments to review recommendations passed by boards and commissions. We are requesting recommendations be submitted online at www.austintexas.gov/budget. All recommendations must be received by March 31, 2022. This will allow the Budget Office the necessary time to review the recommendations with Department staff. For your information, the Council-approved calendar for the FY 2022-23 budget is shown below: • March 31 • May 6 • July 15 • July 27 • August 17 Board and Commission recommendations due to the Budget Office Department budgets due to the Budget Office Presentation of the FY 2022-23 Proposed Budget to City Council Community Input Session Budget Adoption Additional information can be found at www.austintexas.gov/budget. Should you have any questions, please contact our office at BudgetQA@austintexas.gov. cc: Spencer Cronk, City Manager Assistant City Managers Ed Van Eenoo, Chief Financial Officer, Financial Services Department
