BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION Downtown Commission Recommendation Number: 20220420-2(d) Convention Center Expansion Working Group Whereas: Convention & trade show attendance has not recovered to pre-"great recession" 2008/2009 levels and national convention center attendance was generally declining in the years leading up to the COVID-19 pandemic. Whereas: Austin has never met its hotel room night goals (332K) listed in the consulting reports advocating for the 2002 convention center expansion. The 2018 number was 246K. Whereas: Hotel Occupancy Tax Fund revenue, which pays for prior and future convention center expansions, declined significantly during COVID-19 and has yet to stabilize - let alone return to pre- COVID levels. Whereas: Austin is currently paying for multiple Convention Center-related bonds, including the 2002 expansion (maturing in 2029), and the Austin Convention Center Enterprises Hilton Hotel bond – which is in jeopardy of defaulting while any convention expansion construction occurs. Whereas: Austin convention center expansion plans were conceived with pre-COVID-19 assumptions, not taking into account the increasing shift to hybrid gatherings. Whereas: A research team led by UT academics published findings in Nature Sustainability (Dec. 2021) concluding that the recent shift to hybrid conventions produced both environmental and inclusivity benefits as physical attendance dropped. Whereas: Total Central Business District room demand from 2018 was 2.8M, and total Convention Center room nights were 246,235, which indicates that even pre-COVID the Convention Center accounted for fewer than 9% of total Central Business District rooms. Whereas: In past years pre Covid 19, the Austin Convention Center drove a small part of the tourism economy, accounting for approximately 2% of the tourists who come to Austin. Whereas: The completion of the Fairmont which is connected to the Austin Convention Center added nearly 140,000 square feet of meeting room space, effectively expanding the convention center at no cost to taxpayers to accommodate larger events while increasing competition for smaller events, and the Marriott Downtown offers over 60,000square feet of meeting space, and is located across the street from the Convention Center with similar benefits and costs to the convention center. Whereas: San Antonio, Dallas and Houston all presently have larger convention facilities. In an already competitive market and with Austin's convention center attendance suffering from the pandemic, Austin will likely find it increasingly challenging to compete in an eroding market with ever-increasing supply and shrinking demand. Whereas: Dallas has recently announced a multi-billion-dollar convention expansion where they project their attendance to more than …

MUSIC COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION 20220404-3b Commissioner Mahone Recommendation for Funding Seconded By: Chair Patterson Date: April 4, 2022 Subject: Motioned By: Recommendation The Music Commission recommends that the City of Austin fund the remaining applicants of the Austin Music Disaster Relief Grant. Description of Recommendation to Council The Music Commission recommends that additional disaster relief funds in the amount of $3.3M be made available to fill a shortfall documented by the Economic Development Department in the last round of ARPA funding. Rationale: A tremendous number of ATX working musicians who applied for disaster relief funds were denied due need vastly outstripping demand. Economic Development Department records show this shortfall to be $3.3M. As multiple COVID-19 variants continued to result in cancelled gigs through the early part of this year, our city’s musician have struggled financially since the beginning of the pandemic. The Music Commission recommends that the city help fund this gap through any available source. Vote For: 8 (Chair Patterson, Vice-chair Medicharla, Commissioners Reynolds, Gould, Limon, Mahone, Pike, Strickland) Against: 0 Abstain: 0 Absent: 3 (Commissioners Garcia, Rosenthal, and Sullivan) Attest: Kim McCarson 1 of 1
MUSIC COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION 20220404-3a Seconded By: Commissioner Reynolds Date: April 4, 2022 Subject: Music Commission Budget Recommendation FY 2023 Motioned By: Vice-chair Patterson Recommendation The Music Commission recommends $15 Million for FY 2023 from any and all available sources to sustain, strengthen, and build the Austin music economy. Description of Recommendation to Council The Music Commission, in support of Austin’s unique music ecosystem, recommends that the Austin City Council designate a $15 Million investment for FY2023 to Austin music professionals and enterprises for the purpose of growing operations, fueling Austin music industry growth, and supporting the music community in a visionary way. The Commission gratefully acknowledges the support the Austin music industry received from the City of Austin through COVID relief programs. As we emerge from a two-year pandemic period, the Commission recommends robust dedicated funding to transform and elevate the Austin music economy. Sources for the requested $15 Million could include, but are not limited to the General Fund, hotel occupancy taxes (outside of the Live Music Fund), public-private partnerships, and other sources. The commissions recommends the following investments: 1. As ATX music is a driver of tourism, an increase in Visit Austin’s budget specifically to create a dedicated Music Marketing Fund for the Austin music ecosystem, targeted to audiences both within and outside of Austin. Budget request: $3 Million. Source: Hotel Occupancy Taxes 2. A 3rd round of pandemic disaster relief for musicians due to need vastly outstripping demand in 2021, with the goal of helping musical artists remain in Austin. Budget request: $3 Million. Sources: General Fund, partnerships with private sector entities 3. Investment in the development of a music-centered capital venture which includes low-cost rehearsal, studio and other creative music spaces, and affordable housing units. Budget request: $9 Million. 1 of 2 Sources - Project Connect Anti-Displacement funding, General Fund, Density Bonus fees. With the addition of funding from Federal tax credits for affordable housing and private sector partnerships the total project budget should target $25 Million for a complete development unique to Austin, Texas. Rationale: ● Austin is the Music Capital of the World and the music industry here is a major driver of tourism and economic growth for the City of Austin. ● Austin is facing an affordability crisis, with market-rate real estate out of reach for most musicians, venues, and music industry workers. ● The pandemic has continued to create severe economic losses …
