Capital Improvements Plan Progress
Semiannual Report
SUMMARY
The Local Government Code Section 395.058 requires the Advisory
Committee to report to the political subdivision the progress of the
capital improvements plan and any perceived inequities in
implementing the plan or imposing the impact fee. Included herein is
the semiannual report for the reporting period of October 1, 2005 to
March 31, 2006. The report includes an updated comparison of actual
growth rate in comparison to the projections and assumption made in
the report; projects completed or initiated during the period, and
impact fees collected during the period. These comparisons are used
as indicators of the need to update the land use assumptions, Capital
Improvements Plan or Impact Fees.
The local government code also requires the Advisory Committee to
advise the City Council of the need to update the land use
assumptions, capital improvements plan, and impact fees. At this
time, it is not recommended these items be updated.

CURRENT UTILITY DEMANDS
Current water demands and Accumulative Rainfall are shown on
Figures 2 and 3. Actual water usage has been below the projection
because 2004 and early Spring 2005 were unusually wet periods
resulting in lower demands for water. However this region is in an
extended drought period and we anticipate water use to increase
significantly if the current weather pattern continues.

WATER SYSTEM CIP AND MAJOR INITIATIVES
Major Initiatives -
Lake Travis Water Supply - The Lake Travis Raw Water Supply
Alternatives Study which was completed in September 2005
recommended that the most cost effective alternative for the City to
access Lake Travis water is to form a partnership with Cedar Park
and/or Lower Colorado River Authority. Discussions are underway to
negotiate a long term agreement with these two entities. The first
phase of the project; 11,000 feet of waterline is in the process of being
constructed.
Lake Georgetown Raw Water Pump Station and Intake
Expansion - The Water Treatment Plant expansion to a capacity of 48
Million Gallons Per Day was completed in Spring of 2004. The Raw
Water Delivery System from Lake Georgetown to State Highway 29 is
in the process of being expanded to 48 MGD so the full capacity at the
treatment plant can be utilized. Design is currently 90% complete.
Bids will be opened in the spring of 2006 and construction will be
complete September 2007. Staff successfully tested the plant at 52
mgd and has applied to the state to re -rate the plant to provide for an
additional 4 mgd Peak day capacity.
McNutt Creek Interceptor - Staff negotiated an agreement with
Double 3 MUD and Paloma Lake MUD who will participate in the McNutt
Creek Interceptor project. The MUD's will pay approximately $5 million
reducing the City's cost from $13.5 million to $8.5 million. Bids have
been awarded on the project to Mole Kassouf, J.V. for $12.7 million.

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Growth is continuing at a pace as was assumed in the Water and
Wastewater Impact Fee Report. It is not recommended that the Land
Use Assumptions, Capital Improvements Plan or Impact Fees be
amended at this time. This, along with anticipated negotiations on the
Regional Water System may progress to the point that the next report
may recommend the Master Plan and Impact Fees be updated. The
cost of pipe materials has significantly increased since the Impact Fee
report was conducted in 2004 based upon recent bid openings.

Exhibit A
Due to a manufacturing problem, our supplier is not able to provide rainbarrels for our planned sale dates. We
have been promised three shipments of rainbarrels for May, but at this time, we cannot announce definite sale
dates. Please watch our website for information, or subscribe to our WaterWise Newsletter for the latest
information and special announcements about rainbarrel sales and other programs.
City of Austin Water Conservation periodically offers rainbarrels for sale at discounted,
rates. This first sale marks a new contract with our supplier, with new pricing as well as
a new warehouse distribution location.
City of Austin water customers (and customers of eligible 'IUDs) may purchase'
rainbarrels at a discounted price of $60 per barrel. There is no increasing price structure
as we have used in the past. If you live outside of the Austin Water Utility service area,
you may purchase rainbarrels at a cost of $95 per barrel.
Customers are limited to 4 barrels per sale. You are no longer limited to 4 barrels through
the life of the program. However, you must agree to all program terms and conditions,
including the provision that rainbarrels will remain installed at an address that receives
City of Austin water for a period of five years. Please see application for details.
Our new warehouse distribution site is located at 6014 Techni Center Drive, just off of southbound
MLK. Please watch carefully for signs directing traffic flow -- previous sales have
been popular, and we appreciate your patience as we adjust to this new location
The location on Airport Blvd. is closed.
Rainbarrels are 75 gallons and made of sturdy dark green polyethylene. They are
3' tall and roughly 27" at the widest point. Rainbarrels come with a debris screen
and outflow hose, as well as an overflow tube.
You may pre -pay for rainbarrels by sending a completed application (pdt) and
your check payable to City of Austin at least two weeks before the sale date.
You will be sent a receipt that will allow you to pick up your rainbarrels.
Payment is also accepted on the day of the sale by check, money order, credit card
or exact change. To purchase a barrel from the City of Austin, bring your
183 near
water/utility bill and photo ID to 6014 Techni Center Drive on the scheduled sale date.
If you are outside the Austin Water Utility service area and do not receive water from a qualifying mud, you may
purchase rainbarrels for $95 each. To pre -pay, please use the Out of Area Rainbarrel Application.
Rebates of $30 per barrel are available for rainbarrels purchased outside of our rainbarrel sales program. Barrels
purchased through the City and secondhand barrels are not eligible for rebates. Applicants must meet all other
qualifications and agreements as outlined for the rainbarrel sales program.

the progress of the Capital Improvements Plan and identification of any
perceived inequities in the impact fees. The following information is being
provided to you pursuant to § 395.058(c) of the Texas Local Government Code.
After discussion, the Committee found no perceived inequities in implementing

Sincerely yours,
Al Kosik

DATE: August 3, 2006
SUBJECT: City Council Meeting - August 10, 2006
ITEM: 10.B.1. Consider resolution accepting the Capital Improvement Plan Semiannual
Report from the Capital Improvements Impact Fee Advisory Committee.
Department: Water and Wastewater Utilities
Staff Person: Tom Word, Chief of Public Works Operation
Justification:
The Local Government Code Section 395.058 requires the Capital Improvements Impact Fee
Advisory Committee to report to the political subdivision the progress of the capital improvements
plan and any perceived inequities in implementing the plan or imposing the impact fee. Included
herein is the semiannual report for the reporting period of October 1, 2005 to March 31, 2006.
The Committee met on July 12, 2006 and reviewed the report and determined there are no
inequities in implementing the plan or imposing the fee.
Funding:
Cost: N/A
Source of funds: N/A
Outside Resources: Capital Improvements Impact Fee Advisory Committee
Background Information:
Water and wastewater impact fees are charged to offset the cost of constructing infrastructure to
keep up with development. Impact fees allow for growth to pay for itself rather than being paid
for by ratepayers. The Advisory Committee is comprised of the Planning and Zoning Commission,
a non-voting member from Williamson County and a non-voting member of the Home Builders
Association of Austin. The committee meets semiannually to review the semiannual report and
recommend to Council any perceived inequities in implementing the plan or imposing the impact
fee.
Public Comment: N/A
