ARTS COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION 20201019.5.a Date: Subject: 10-19-20 Arts Commission Recommendation on the African-American Cultural Heritage District Revitalization and Cultural Historical Development Seconded By: Commissioner Michelle Polgar Motion By: Commissioner Lulu Flores Recommendation The Arts Commission requests that City Council reaffirm its designation of the African American Cultural Heritage District (AACHD) and commit to revitalization of the District through development and investment in historic, cultural and preservation projects, including the preservation and designation of the remaining two parcels of Urban Renewal Property (Lots 16 and 18 at the 1100 Block on East 11th Street) as cultural heritage property to be developed instead as cultural arts and music facilities that support the African American community and reflect their cultural heritage. Additionally, Council should direct City Manager and appropriate City Departments to make recommendations for such redevelopment and investment by developing a plan in coordination with the AACHD Investment Initiative and other private and public strategic partners. . Description of Recommendation to Council The Arts Commission, in support of the African American Cultural Heritage District (AACHD) Investment Initiative, recommends that City Council commit to the development of the remaining properties in historic East Black Austin within the boundaries of the AACHD in ways that address and preserve Black culture and that benefit the entire Austin community by creating a viable arts and cultural destination that drives cultural tourism and economic development in the District. This would include the dedication of Lot 16 and Lot 18 as cultural heritage property and their development as such. Revitalization of the AACHD would include the development of historic, cultural and preservation projects, institutions/facilities and activities; encourage the return of small, minority-owned businesses; and create a vibrant street and nightlife center that reflects the African American historic legacy of the District. City Manager would be directed to work with the various Departments to develop the necessary strategies to implement the following actions, expeditiously, and if feasible, immediately: • Update all official city Zoning Maps that show designated Cultural and Historic Districts and Landmarks to include the African American Cultural Heritage District (AACHD); • Develop an official detailed map specifically for the District by using the East Austin Historical Survey findings to designate cultural, historic, and heritage sites and landmarks within the District; add those locations to official maps; • Develop way-finding signage for public right-of-ways that provide directional guidance for locating the AACHD in general, and specific landmarks …
