MEMORANDUM TO: Chair and Members of the Planning Commission FROM: Andrei Lubomudrov Housing and Planning Department DATE: January 25, 2021 RE: Proposed annexation of 36 properties (approximately 115.4 acres) into Travis County Water Control and Improvement District No. 10 (District) C12M-2020-0137 On November 19, 2020, the City received an application requesting the City’s consent to the annexation of approximately 115.4 acres into Travis County Water Control and Improvement District No. 10 (District). The subject tracts are located south of Barton Creek Road approximately 2,000 to 2,500 feet southwest of the intersection of Canyon Rim Drive and FM 2244 in Austin’s extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ) and in the Barton Creek Watershed. The District includes properties in western Travis County and is located in the City of Austin’s ETJ. A map identifying the tracts to be annexed into the District and its location relative to existing District boundaries and City jurisdictions is attached. The assigned case number is C12M-2020- 0137. Applicant’s Proposal The 36 properties requesting annexation are currently served by the Camelot Water Supply Corporation, which was formed to serve the Lower Camelot neighborhood and now purchases water from Travis County WCID 10 as a wholesale customer. In light of aging infrastructure, the properties served by Camelot have entered into an agreement with the District to be annexed and receive upgraded infrastructure as fully annexed ratepayers. The annexation would also enable the installation of high-pressure fire hydrants, which would be valuable in mitigating potential damage from wildfires in the area. Representatives of the property owners appeared before the District’s Board of Directors at its meeting on March 11, 2020, and the District Board approved the annexation request contingent upon receiving the City’s approval of the District’s annexation of the property. 1 1 of 4B-5 • • • • • • City Review Process The Agreement Concerning Creation of the Travis County Water Control and Improvement District No. 10 (Consent Agreement) requires City approval for the annexation of land by the District. The District is considered a “noncity service district” and as such, the City is not authorized to place restrictions or conditions on this consent. If the City fails or refuses to consent within 90 days of receipt of a written request, the owner may petition the City to make available those services to be provided by the District. Failure to execute a mutually agreeable contract for services within 120 days constitutes …

Congress, I wanted to let you know that I am very much opposed to the exemption for case # SP-2019-0600C. If you allow the park land access exemption in this case, you will be setting a horrible precedent. Allowing this exemption tells all future developers that they can promise whatever they need to in order to get approval for a permit to build. And they know that they won’t be held accountable and will only have to pay a fine to essentially do whatever they wanted to do in the first place. This is simply not acceptable, so please vote NO! on this exemption. Thank you for your time.
