Interlocal Agreement(s) For Wildland Fire Management Activities and “All Risk” Activities Travis County and The University of Texas At Austin Concessions and Contract Committee May 11, 2021 Matt McCaw Environmental Conservation Program Manager Land Management Program Natural Resources Division Austin Parks and Recreation Department matt.mccaw@austintexas.gov 2 Background • • • • • The majority of PARD’s lands are protected as natural areas. A natural area is an area that retains or has reestablished its natural character, typically dominated by native plants and animals. They provide critical services to Austin residents: • Mental health Social benefits • Economic benefits • Recreational opportunities • • Water cleansing Air cleansing • Climate regulation • • Most PARD natural areas have not been managed to maintain ecosystem health. Have been degraded by past management, invasive species, and loss of biodiversity, which make them more vulnerable to heat, drought, disease, and wildfire. These vulnerabilities will be exacerbated by climate change. Background • Further, in 2019, the City Auditor found that PARD is not strategically addressing wildfire risk on parkland and recommended that PARD create and implement land management plans to manage natural areas and address wildfire risk. • (Office of the City Auditor. October 2019. Wildfire Preparedness Audit Report) • PARD is in the process of procuring a land management plan for several thousand 3 acres of natural areas. • Fire is a natural process Is critical for: • • Economical restoration and management of land at large scales • Sustainability and resiliency of natural systems • Prescribed fire will be an important piece of the land management plan to reintroduce fire safely. 4 Purpose • • To achieve these goals and commitments, PARD is seeking to establish cooperative agreements with a group of land managing entities (and Austin Fire Department) in the Austin area, including interlocal agreements with: 1. Travis County, and 2. The University of Texas at Austin The interlocal agreements with Travis County and the University of Texas at Austin will each allow for mutual support and cooperation for prescribed fire management and training, land management planning, as well as planning and assistance for hazardous incidents. • Collectively, these agreements will be important for PARD in fulfilling the commitments made in response to the Wildfire Audit as well as implementing restoration and land management plans for Preserves and other parkland natural areas. 5 Purpose • • • These entities each use prescribed …

LDC Reference: Chapter 25-2, Subchapter B, Division 5 1. 2. 2.3.1.A 2.3.1.B 3. 2.3.1.C HB: 4818-2128-2793.1 TIER ONE REQUIREMENTS- MINIMUM Subject Code Provision Description of How PUD Meets or Exceeds the Requirement Meet the objectives of the City Code The PUD meets the objectives of the City Code. Provide for development standards that achieve equal or greater consistency with the goals in Section 1.1 (General Intent) than development under the regulations in the Land Development Code. Section 1.1 states that "[t]his division provides the procedures and minimum requirements for a planned unit development zoning district to implement the goals of preserving the natural environment, encouraging high quality development and innovative design, and ensuring adequate public facilities and services. The PUD provides a total amount of open space that equals or exceeds 10 percent of the residential tracts, 15 percent of the industrial tracts, and 20 percent of the nonresidential tracts within the PUD, except that: 1. a detention or filtration area is excluded from the calculation unless it is designed and maintained as an amenity; and The PUD encourages high quality development, improved mobility and connectivity, and adequate public facilities. The PUD will allow for the realignment of Red River Street through the subject property such that Red River Street connects in a straight alignment from 15th Street to 13th Street rather than remaining in its current configuration. The PUD will also allow for the redevelopment of property that is currently mostly vacant and largely underutilized since the closure of Brackenridge Hospital. The PUD requests waiver of this provision. The PUD will comply with the non-PUD open space requirements of the City Code. Additionally, PUD approval will result in the enhancement of nearby open space, since it will allow the City to close the ROW that is currently used as Red River Street and add it to the public amenities being developed in Waterloo Park. 4. 2.3.1.D 5. 2.3.1.E Provide a two-star Austin Energy Green Building rating The PUD development will earn a minimum two- star Austin Energy Green Building rating. 2. the required percentage of open space may be reduced for urban property with characteristics that make open space infeasible if other community benefits are provided Be consistent with applicable neighborhood plans, neighborhood conservation combining district regulations, historic area and landmark regulations, and compatible with adjacent property and land uses Consistency with Neighborhood Plan The property is located in …
Our concerns regarding a park between Senate Hills and new construction on adjacent property are numerous. These are a few: 5. 6. 1. 2. 4. 3. We will have a park as big as Zilker Park across the street in less than 2 years with concert space, children’s activities and playscapes, hiking, biking, and nature stations. It will be right across the street from developments; no need to have additional park between developments and all the problems it will bring to our neighborhood. Proposed park will be too small for the number of people living at the two adjacent multi-family developments. Proximity of a pavilion to properties on Tower St. It will increase noise, safety concerns and will infringe on privacy. Proximity of charcoal grills to residents on Tower, which will be a fire hazard and health hazard. How will access be monitored? This poses a MAJOR safety and crime concerns. We are not clear on how it will be maintained or how crime and violations will be monitored and handled. Austin Police Officer Andrew Kos confirmed on NextDoor app, APD cannot remove homeless individuals and will be allowed to camp in a public park. Remember, this park supposedly is between multifamily developments! Proximity of a children’s playscape to residents on Tower. There goes the quiet neighborhood! Proximity of a Half Way House on Connally Ln. with a history of overdoses, drug use in common spaces, open area sexual activity, and trespassing. This poses safety concerns. Private streets in new development, compared to Senate Hills’ public streets and thus creating parking issues, is a problem. The new subdivision will be already using the entrance to Senate Hills, so more congestion will occur in and out of our subdivision. Increased noise in close proximity to residents on Tower, Connally, and 10. Rayburn. Why is HOA President, Mr. Andy Creel, submitting the application instead of the developer/contractor as in original contract? Contract seems different than originally presented which many residents did not want to support? Submission is odd; timing is odd. Even developers changed as original developer went bankrupt. We really don’t need or want a park! 7. 11. 8. 9.

April 19, 2021 City of Austin Planning Commission Todd Shaw, Chair Claire Hempel, Vice Chair Yvette Flores, Secretary James Shieh, Parliamentarian Carmen Llanes-Pulido Jeffrey Thompson Awais Azhar João Paulo Connolly Patrick Howard Solveij Rosa Praxis Grayson Cox Jennifer Mushtaler Re: Senate Hills Park Dear Commissioners: Robert Schneider Arati Singh, Ex-Officio Don Leighton-Burwell, Ex-Officio Richard Mendoza, Ex-Officio We are writing to you today to communicate Senate Hills HOA’s strong support of the Senate Hills Park conditional use zoning case indicated above. This park is the result of over 3 years of public discussion, negotiation, and collaboration with the adjacent developer of “The Park at 51 East”, and will bring tremendous, long-term value to our communities. To summarize the agreement, the developer agreed to provide over $500,000 in community benefit to our neighborhood (including this park) in exchange for Senate Hills HOA’s permission to utilize our stormwater ponds for their development. This agreement includes provisions that the developer and future HOA will be responsible for maintenance, property taxes, and insurance for these common spaces in perpetuity. This agreement was voted in place by the members of the Senate Hills HOA through a series of well-advertised public meetings with a final vote of 76 in favor and 29 opposed (attorney certified vote results attached). We had 105 out of 153 homes represented in this vote! As indicated above, liability to the HOA, there was some opposition to this vote on the basis of crime/homelessness in the park, and noise/nuisance of park use. You’ll likely hear from some of the folks that remain opposed to the park. Be assured that their concerns were not dismissed but rather they were discussed at great length and led to stronger contractual protections in the agreement and the implementation of a series of rules for park use. This type of arrangement, where a developer provides immediate and significant benefit to the surrounding communities, is exceptionally rare, and is the best-case scenario of Austin’s development process. Developments often fall far short of this outcome, but we’re so close to achieving this lofty goal. The proposed development is well underway and the developer has received approval and access to utilize our stormwater ponds for their development. This represents the agreement’s full benefit to the developer. The Senate Hills HOA has received part of the proposed benefit (new fences, new jogging path, etc), but this park represents the large majority of …

Based on recent review of the tree, staff has determined the tree is dead. Removal is now administrative, and a variance is no longer required.

B13 Commissioner Mushtaler: Staff Response: Planning Commission Q & A Report B1 and B2 Commissioner Mushtaler: Moore's Crossing on the consent agenda is requesting limited industrial but it does not contain any information about the use for the site. On the map it seems to be quite close to a number of SF-2 homes. Is there any additional information available? Staff Response: subsequent stage of the development process. Please note that both rezoning cases are located within Airport Overlay Zone 2 (AO-2) which does not allow for new residential use to occur. The existing residences across FM 973 to the west (south of ABIA) are also within the AO-2 Zone and existed prior to Council adoption of the Airport Overlay Zone ordinance in September 2001. They are considered non-conforming land uses. I am also trying to get a better understanding of the Central Health discussion item. Again, I don't see clear plans. It seems that this is no longer going to be actual medical use space but could be developed into a combination of residential/commercial? Most other PUD cases include an overall development plan that includes land uses and identifies their approximate location and acreage/square footage. However, in the Central Health PUD, the property owner has not yet determined future uses of the site. Instead, the goal of the Central Health PUD is to establish a consistent set of land use and site development regulations to enable redevelopment of the property, as established in an October 2020 Council Resolution. The Applicant anticipates that build-out of the property will occur over a 10-15 year period.
