Yer consent agenda, per @austintexasgov: Items 1-34, except 4, 5, 6, 9, 11, 12, 17, 18, 24, 33. #atxcouncil April 21, 2016 10:28 AM
Item 4

4 was on consent, but CM @DonZimmermanATX pulled it. Now speaking against it. April 21, 2016 10:30 AM
.@DonZimmermanATX takes umbrage at fact that application for loan doesn’t have listed fiscal impact statement. #atxcouncil April 21, 2016 10:32 AM
Staff says final approval of loan would have fiscal impact statement. Providing one for application action is premature. #atxcouncil April 21, 2016 10:33 AM
.@DonZimmermanATX: In our common sense in daily life, we don’t go for loans without understanding that we could afford it. #atxcouncil April 21, 2016 10:34 AM

Motion is to include mobile home residents into Tenant Relocation Program (TRP) policy which is currently under construction. #atxcouncil April 21, 2016 01:37 PM
Some CMs incl. @SheriGalloD10 want a stakeholder process mobile home residents (MHRs) which will happen. #atxcouncil April 21, 2016 01:38 PM
But that stakeholder process could delay TRP, so staff will bring back TRP in 4-6 weeks regardless. #atxcouncil April 21, 2016 01:39 PM

Another HH rep says this project is different than normal. Building an entire n’hood instead of individual homes. #atxcouncil April 21, 2016 01:53 PM
HH rep says road extension would be less than a quarter-mile and provide connectivity to elementary school. #atxcouncil April 21, 2016 01:54 PM
HH rep says if road isn’t extended, the project would only have 60 units & be more car-centric. With road extension: 120-plus. #atxcouncil April 21, 2016 01:57 PM
.@PoolforAustin asks what he means by car-centric. #atxcouncil April 21, 2016 01:58 PM
