Alcohol at Zilker, yea or nay?
Monday, June 7, 2021 by Tai Moses
The parks department invites community members to participate in a virtual meeting to discuss the Zilker Café Conditional Use Permit, which would amend the zoning of the popular cafe next to Barton Springs Pool to allow for the sale of wine and beer. “PARD will provide an outline of the process and timeline, share the proposed menu by Springfed and the CUP plans submitted to the Development Services Department.” Thursday, June 17, 6 p.m. Register here. Community members are also invited to attend the first of five community meetings to consider the Zilker Metropolitan Park Vision Plan. At this meeting, “PARD will share the outcomes of the recent site analysis and needs assessment, a review of what the team heard during small group discussions, and the community survey. Based on this information, draft Guiding Principles and Goals for the vision planning process will be shared for community feedback.” The meeting will be hosted virtually on Zoom and Facebook Live on Tuesday, June 29, 6 p.m. A recording of the meeting will also be posted on the project web page.
