COTA TIMELINE 2006-2010 Land Acquisition Dec 2010 Groundbreaking for Racetrack Oct 2012 Construction of Amphitheater April 2013 First Concert at Amphitheater Dec 2013 Annexed by City of Austin Sept 2018 Planned Unit Development (PUD) Application Submittal PUD Submittal The COTA track and ancillary facilities were permitted and constructed while the project was in the City of Austin’s Extraterritorial Jurisdiction. The City of Austin annexed the project area in 2013 and gave the interim zoning designation of Interim Rural Residential (I-RR). The original vision was for the COTA track and amphitheater to spur economic development in and around the project area. In order to provide more development within the project area, a formal zoning designation is needed. COTA is looking to partner with developers to achieve a mix of uses that complement and enhance the project as a destination and entertainment district. The first phase of development contemplated is a hotel and waterpark that is project to be 155 feet in height. The only zoning tool in today’s current Land Development Code that allows for height above 60 feet is PUD zoning, thus PUD zoning was needed. PUD zoning allows for modifications to the Code, but also requires superiority measures. With regard to Parks and Recreation, the estimated development of 508 hotel units and 30 condominium units results in a requirement of 7.817 acres of land dedication and a $223,975 development fee. The COTA PUD proposal for parkland superiority is to provide for 11.38 acres of land (9.71 acres credited) for two regulation soccer fields and construction of those fields with irrigation. The cost estimate for the construction is $1.9 M, which is far in excess of the required development fee.

To: Zero Waste Advisory Commission From: Ken Snipes, Director Austin Resource Recovery Date: May 15, 2020 Dumpsters in the Central Business District Subject: Director’s Monthly Report to the Zero Waste Advisory Commission Austin Resource Recovery has received requests from businesses located in the Central Business District (CBD) requesting some relief of their monthly garbage fees related to the statewide business closures. In late March, an audit of trash volume was performed in the CBD and found that a majority of the containers within the CBD were empty. By removing containers in the CBD, ARR would be able to reduce CBD customer volume charge which will help customers in that area save money during this crisis; ARR would pay less to the vendor, with a near break-even fiscal impact. ARR Fleet Purchases FY 20 Under the current Fleet Master Agreement, ARR is scheduled to purchase the following types of equipment for FY 20. ARR is replacing 47 units and adding 13 additional pieces of equipment, including multi-packs for the final phase of the Curbside Compost program expansion.
