Narrative Responses 101-110W'M`1� W1 1111 �u Executive Summary The City of Round Rock will receive $403,458 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds for the 2007/2008 program year. In addition to these funds, the 2004-2009 Five Year Consolidated Plan is being amended by "deprogramming" and "reprogramming" $173,477.08 to fund projects identified in this plan. The "deprogrammed" funds are monies unspent from prior years as shown in Table 2. "Reprogrammed" funds are shown in Table 3. HUD has determined that $80,360 must be repaid to the City's CDBG program fund due to a change of use of a public facility owned by the City that was improved with CDBG funds and no longer meets a national objective. Table 4 shows the methodology used by HUD to determine the recapture amount. Any project or activity must meet one of three National Objectives to be eligible: (1) Benefit low-to-moderate income persons; or (2) Prevent slum or blight; or (3) Meet an urgent need (HUD's definition) and accomplish one of the following CDBG program Objectives: (1) Provide decent affordable housing; or (2) Create suitable living environments; or (3) Create economic opportunities and have one of the following CDBG program Outcomes: (1) Availability/accessibility; or (2) Affordability; or (3) Sustainability and must indicate the number of persons that will benefit from the project that: (1) Have new access to the project or activity; or (2) Have improved access to the project or activity; or (3) Are now served by the project or activity that is no longer substandard. Fourth Program Year Action Plan 1 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction HUD Outcome Performance Measurement System There are three main components to the Outcome Performance Measurement System: 1. Objectives; 2. Outcomes; and 3. Indicators. Objectives The Outcome Performance Measurement System offers three possible objectives for each activity. These objectives are based on the broad statutory purposes of the four Community and Planning Development (CPD) programs: ■ Creating Suitable Living Environments relates to activities that are designed to benefit communities, families, or individuals by addressing issues in their living environment. This objective relates to activities that are intended to address a wide range of issues faced by low-and moderate- income persons, from physical problems with their environment, such as poor quality infrastructure, to social issues such as crime prevention, literacy, or elderly health services. ■ Providing Decent Housing covers the wide range of housing activities that are generally undertaken with HOME, CDBG, or HOPWA funds. This objective focuses on housing activities whose purpose is to meet individual family or community housing needs. It does not include programs where housing is an element of a larger effort to make community-wide improvements, since such programs would be more appropriately reported under Suitable Living Environments. ■ Creating Economic Opportunities applies to activities related to economic development, commercial revitalization, or job creation. The objectives are framed broadly to capture the range of community impacts that occur as a result of program activities. Outcomes The second component of the system is designed to capture the nature of the change or the expected result. HUD has established the following three outcomes to use when considering funding activities: ■ Availability/Accessibility applies to activities that make services, infrastructure, public services, public facilities, housing, or shelter available or accessible to low-and moderate-income people, including persons with disabilities. In this category, accessibility does not refer only to physical barriers, but also to making the basics of daily living available and accessible to low-and moderate-income people where they live. ■ Affordability applies to activities that provide affordability in a variety of ways to low-and moderate-income people. It can include the creation or maintenance of affordable housing, basic infrastructure hook-ups, or services Fourth Program Year Action Plan 2 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction such as transportation or day care. Affordability is an appropriate objective whenever an activity is lowering the cost, improving the quality, or increasing the affordability of a product or service to benefit a low-income household. ■ Sustainability applies to activities that are aimed at improving communities or neighborhoods, helping to make them livable or viable by providing benefit to persons of low-and moderate-income or by removing or eliminating slums or blighted areas, through multiple activities or services that sustain communities or neighborhoods. Indicators There are common indicators that will be reported for nearly all program activities. Others are activity-specific indicators that are relevant only for the specific activity the City is undertaking. Data on all of the indicators that describe the results of an activity must be reported. Common Indicators There are four common indicators that are relevant for most activities: ■ Amount of money leveraged from other Federal, state, local, and private sources. ■ Number of persons, households, businesses, units or beds assisted, as appropriate. ■ Income levels of persons or households by 30 percent, 50 percent, 60 percent, or 80 percent of area median income. ■ Race, ethnicity, and disability data Specific Indicators There are eighteen activity specific indicators that are identified in Federal Register Notice Volume 71, March 7, 2006, as part of the standardized format: 1. Public facility or infrastructure activities 2. Public service activities 3. Geographically targeted activities a. Number of new businesses assisted b. Number of businesses retained c. Number of jobs created or retained d. Amount of money leveraged e. Number of low or moderated income (LMI) persons served f. Slum/blight demolition g. Number of LMI households served h. Number of acres of remediated brownfields i. Number of households with new or improved access to public facilities/seryices j. Number of commercial fagade treatment/business building rehab k. Optional indicators (crime rates, property value change, housing code violations, business occupancy rates, employment rates, homeownership rates) 4. Number of commercial fagade treatment/business building rehab (site, not target area based Fourth Program Year Action Plan 3 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction 5. Number of acres of brownfields remediated (site, not target based) 6. New rental units per project or activity 7. Rental units rehabilitated 8. Homeownership units constructed, acquired and/or repaired with rehabilitation (per project or activity) 9. Owner occupied units rehabilitated or improved 10. Direct financial assistance to homebuyers 11. Tenant based rental assistance 12. Number of persons given overnight shelter 13. Number of beds created in overnight shelter or other emergency housing 14. Homelessness prevention 15. Jobs created 16. Jobs retained 17. Businesses assisted 18. Goods or services provided by assisted business Fourth Program Year Action Plan This document was created by using HUD's new CPMP tool and is designed to address all Federal statutory requirements, including the new performance measurements. Activities identified in this plan meet the requirements of the HUD Outcome Performance Measurement System and National Objectives (Table 1).

Fourth Program Year Action Plan 7 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction Priority Needs Determination The priority needs were determined primarily from consultation with City staff, public hearings, surveys, and local service providers. Key factors affecting the determination of the five-year priorities included: 1) the types of target income households with greatest need for assistance; 2) those activities that will best address their needs; and 3) the limited amount of funding available to meet those needs. The priority ranking system for housing and community development needs is as follows: • High Priority: Activities assigned high priorities are expected to be funded during the five-year period. • Medium Priority; As funds are available, activities that are medium priority are expected to be funded. • Low Priority: Activities assigned low priorities are not expected to be funded during the five-year period. The City may support application for public assistance by other agencies if those activities conform to the Consolidated Plan. • No Such Need: The City has determined that there is no need for these activities in the community. Funding will not be provided and applications by other agencies will not be supported. In the 2004-2009 Consolidated Plan, Tables 3-1 and 3-2 identify the priorities assigned to the housing and community development activities. Underserved Needs Despite efforts, there remain a number of significant obstacles to meeting underserved needs. The following obstacles to meeting these needs in Round Rock are: • Rapid population growth • Cut backs in state and federal funding for basic needs services • High cost of housing • Need for transportation to existing services and childcare exceed available services One of the Transportation Division goals is to enhance alternate transportation choices available to Round Rock citizens. The city has undergone a study for mass transit and has established scenarios for bus routes that would access the major retail centers, hospitals, and college campus in Round Rock. High cost of housing continues to be an obstacle for new homeowners and renters. Round Rock will become the lead entity in a proposed HOME consortium and make application to the Department of Housing and Urban Development for HOME dollars in March 2006. This money will be used as gap financing for the development of affordable housing. Fourth Program Year Action Plan 8 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction Managing the Process The City of Round Rock Office of Community Development within the Planning Department serves as the lead agency for the Consolidated Plan and administration of CDBG funds. The following agencies were consulted in the development of this annual action plan: Interfaith Care Alliance, Life Steps, Williamson County and Cities Health District, Bluebonnet Trails MHMR, The Round Rock Volunteer Center, Williamson-Burnet Counties Opportunities, Round Rock Independent School District, United Way of Greater Williamson County, Agape Pregnancy Resource Center, Round Rock Housing Authority, the Round Rock Area Serving Center, and the Williamson County Crisis Center. Round Rock will continue to host interagency meetings on a monthly basis to enhance coordination between public and private housing, health, and social service agencies. Citizen Participation Citizen participation, an integral part of developing Round Rock's 2007-2008 Fourth Program Year Action Plan, was obtained through public hearings, public meetings, and a community needs assessment survey. The City's Citizen Participation Plan that was adopted with the first five year Consolidated Plan, details procedures to follow for public hearings, plan amendments, reporting information, and public accountability. The City held seven public hearings to solicit input from residents and social services providers on the needs in Round Rock. Those meetings were held at the following locations: Tuesday,February 27,2007 Tuesday,February 27,2007 Thursday,March 1,2007 Public Service Agency Meeting St.Williams Catholic Church Community Development Advisory 301 West Bagdad Parish Hall Commission McConico Community Room 1000 McNeil Road City Council Chambers Round Rock,TX 78664 Round Rock TX 78681 221 E.

In addition to the public hearings, citizens were able to access the 2007 Community Needs Survey to prioritize community needs for a 60 day comment period beginning February 19, 2007 at the official city website. Over 700 survey responses were received through 5:00 p.m. on Friday, March 30, 2007, with 223 written comments. See Appendix A. Fifteen service provider organizations and 23 senior residents attended the meetings. Comments from the meetings are included in Appendix A. According to responses received, the key needs of low and moderate income persons in Round Rock are: • Child care • Transportation (buses) • Affordable single family homes • Job Training • Battered and abused spouse services • Youth programs • Temporary/emergency housing • Down payment assistance for homebuyers • Affordable housing for senior citizens • Home repair loans • Neighborhood parks • Community centers • Job creation/retention The Fourth Program Year Action Plan is available for public review and comments for 30 days beginning June 18, 2007. Public hearings will be held by the Community Development Advisory Commission on July 5 and by the City Council on July 12. Institutional Structure Effective implementation of the Consolidated Plan involves a variety of agencies. Coordination and collaboration between agencies is important to ensuring that the needs in the community are addressed. The key agencies that are involved in the implementation of the Plan as well as additional resources that may be available are discribed below. Public Sector City of Round Rock, Office of Community Development The Office of Community Development is responsible for the administration of the City's programs funded by CDBG money. This office has primary responsibility for managing and implementing the City's affordable housing programs, the Consolidated Plan programs, and related documents. Fourth Program Year Action Plan 10 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction Other city departments also involved in providing services include Code Enforcement, Parks and Recreation Department, and the Public Works Department. Williamson County and Cities Health District (WCCHD) WCCHD offers a variety of services to Round Rock and Williamson County residents, including: • Alcohol and Drug Services • Children's Services • Family Assistance • Public Health Services • Senior Services • Emergency Services Round Rock Housing Authority The Round Rock Housing Authority administers the Housing Choice (Section 8) Voucher Program. The City works in close consultation with the Housing Authority regarding public housing issues in Round Rock. The Round Rock Development Cooperation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization established by the Housing Authority for the purpose of purchasing and developing affordable housing. Non-Profit Agencies No community development organizations that construct housing for target income households or provide rehabilitations services are located in the City. However, some are located in Austin which is close proximity to Round Rock. Private Sector The private sector is an important collaborator in the services and programs associated with the Consolidated Plan. The private sector brings additional resources and expertise that can be used to supplement existing services or fill gaps in the system. Lenders, affordable housing developers, business and economic development organizations, and private sector providers offer a variety of assistance to residents such as health care, small business assistance, home loan programs, and assisted housing, among others. Some of these organizations include the Round Rock Development Corporation which has been active in purchasing affordable housing and the Small Business Development Center which provides resources to local and start up businesses. Coordination The City is committed to continuing its participation and coordination with federal, state, county, and local agencies, as well as with the private and non-profit sector, to serve the needs of target income individuals and families I the community. Fourth Program Year Action Plan 11 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction In particular, the City will continue to work in close coordirkation with area service providers for the provision of services. The City will also work with the building industry to address housing needs. Monitoring The City of Round Rock has developed a monitoring system to ensure that the activities carried out in the Plan are done so in a timely manner in accordance with the federal monitoring requirements of 24 CFR 570.501(V) and 24 CFR 85.40 and all other applicable laws, regulations, policies, and sound management and accounting practices. The objectives of monitoring are: • To assure that subrecipients are carrying out their program/project as described; • To assure that subrecipients are implementing the program/project in a timely manner; • To assure that subrecipients are assessing costs to the program/ project which are eligible under CDBG regulations and the contract; • To assure that subrecipients are conforming with other applicable laws, regulations, and terms of he agreement; • To assure that the program/project is operating in a manner that minimizes the opportunity for fraud, waste, and mismanagement; • To assure that subrecipients have the capacity to carry out the approved project/ project; • To assure that subrecipients are carrying out their program/project as described. The City will track and report on its progress toward meeting its housing and community development goals. On an annual basis, City staff will prepare a Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) that summarizes progress on goals and priorities in the Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plan. Lead-based Paint The majority of residential housing development in Round Rock occurred after the use of lead-based paint was banned; however, some areas of the community may have some homes with lead based paint. With the implementation of the Minor Home Repair program, the program policy and procedures manual address compliance with the Residential Lead Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992 (Title X) and subsequent changes in September, 1999. The procedures include: • Notification • Identification • Treatment (if necessary) Fourth Program Year Action Plan 12 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction Specific Housing Objectives Round Rock will continue its down payment and closing costs assistance for first time homebuyers. The Minor Home Repair Program will be used to assist families in bringing their property up to code. Priorities for home repair assistance have been established and will be implemented when there is a waiting list for future projects. Both programs have residency requirements that will trigger repayment of loans if property sells, leases, or transfers title within the five year note period. Needs of Public Housing The City of Round Rock appoints a public housing tenant as a board member to the Housing Authority governing board. In addition to monthly board meetings, Housing Authority staff holds resident council meetings to get input from residents on what improvements they would like to see in their facilities. The Lancehaven family housing development has a small playground that is maintained by the City of Round Rock. This playground will be upgraded with CDBG and matching Housing Authority funds in fiscal year 2006. Plans to renovate the Westwood family development are being explored. This duplex project may become a two story multi family development in the future. A campaign to educate the public on public housing needs will kick off in 2006. Equipment needed for this campaign will be purchased with CDBG and matching Housing Authority funds. Barriers to Affordable Housing The City is committed to removing or reducing barriers to affordable housing whenever possible. Zoning standards for multifamily tracts have been amended that will allow redevelopment of existing multifamily public housing. Prior to the zoning amendment, all three public housing developments had density and acreage that did not meet the current standards. The Round Rock Housing Authority can now proceed with its plans to redevelop its properties. HOME/ American Dream Down payment Initiative (ADDI) Round Rock does not receive HOME/ADDI funds at this time. If these funds were available to Round Rock, they would be combined with private funds to make an investment with the Round Rock Housing Authority to maintain current affordable units and develop additional units. Fourth Program Year Action Plan 13 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction The City Council amended the city's zoning ordinance regarding minimum lot size for multi-family tracts. This previous barrier to affordable housing prevented the Round Rock Development Cooperation (part of the Round Rock Housing Authority) from expanding their existing properties. The minimum 5 acre tract requirement for a fr multi-family development has been reduced to 1 acre. Each of the three housing authority properties is less than 5 acres. The Round Rock Housing Authority will take the lead to outreach to residents and tenants of public housing and to other families assisted by public housing agencies, for the purposes of ensuring that the ADDI funds are used to provide down payment assistance for such residents, tenants, and families. Families receiving ADDI funds would take classes related to all aspects of homeownership. Housing counseling would be mandatory homebuyers. City staff and Round Rock Housing Authority staff have received certification in teaching Homebuyer Education and Financial Fitness. These certification programs were administered by the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs (TDHCA) and NeighborWorks America. Specific Homeless Prevention Elements Homeless Strategy Though Round Rock has a very small visual homeless population, the loss of a job, a raise in rent, an eviction or domestic violence can easily lead to homelessness for many low income individuals and families. Accordingly, the City's high priority activities are concentrated on homeless prevention. Priority Homeless Needs With a focus on homeless prevention, the City and local service providers have identified the provision of direct assistance (e.g., food and clothing)as well as supportive services to help those potentially at risk of becoming homeless as the key priorities for homeless assistance and prevention over the five year period. Homelessness is a regional issue and is best addressed countywide through the efforts of both Williamson and Travis Counties and local jurisdictions. Since Round Rock's emergency shelters only provide temporary facilities for displaced women and children, the City will work with area providers to address its share of the homeless need through facilities and services provided at the regional level. Homeless Assistance Goals A primary goal to address the issue of homelessness and homeless prevention is to encourage a range of supportive services to help those at risk of becoming homeless and those who are without shelter. The City will continue work with service providers to address its goal and the local needs of the homeless. Homeless Assistance and Prevention Homeless Assistance Fourth Program Year Action Plan 14 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction The City will work with service agencies to provide emergency shelters, transitional housing, and other support services that address the City's fair share of homeless need at the regional level. Homeless Services In order to help those who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless, the City will assist with the provision of supportive services which may include free food and clothing, counseling, emergency housing assistance, referral, or temporary shelter. Job Training Program To provide better economic opportunities to target income residents, the City will assist with the provision of job training and workforce development services by improving communication within the community. Housing Choice Voucher Homeownership The Housing Choice (Section 8) Voucher Rental Assistance Program provides vouchers to very low and extremely low income households that are in need of housing and are potentially at risk of becoming homeless or have special needs. The City will provide down payment assistance and homeownership counseling to participants in the Round Rock Housing Authority (RRHA) voucher homeownership program.

In addition, the City's strategy is to provide supportive services for target income residents, such as childcare services. Planned economic development and anti-poverty programs include: • Development of a One-Stop Center • Job Training services • Commercial rehabilitation • Childcare center and services • Homeless services Fourth Program Year Action Plan 16 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction Non-homeless Special Needs (91.220 (c) and (e)) Priority housing and supportive service needs of persons who are not homeless but require supportive housing (i.e., elderly, frail elderly, persons with disabilities (mental physical, developmental) persons with alcohol or other drug addiction persons with HIV/AIDS and their families, and public housing residents are available through a limited amount of resources provided through Bluebonnet Trails MHMR, Trinity Care Nursing Home, Round Rock Housing Authority, Williamson-Burnet Counties Opportunities, and the Williamson County Health District. Housing Opportunities for People with AIDS Round Rock does not receive HOPWA funding. Any housing in this area for persons with HIV/AIDS is funded privately or assisted through the Interfaith Care Alliance. Specific HOPWA Objectives Round Rock will continue dialogs with the Interfaith Care Alliance and other local agencies who deal directly with housing issues for this target population and assist when possible with housing needs with its Home Repair Program. Other Narrative Exception Grantee Status The CDBG program requires that each CDBG funded activity must either principally benefit low- and moderate-income persons, aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight, or meet a community development need having a particular urgency because existing conditions pose a serious and immediate threat to the health or welfare of the community and other financial resources are not available to meet that need. With respect to activities that principally benefit low- and moderate- income persons, at least 51 percent of the activity's beneficiaries must be low and moderate income. However, in some communities, such as Round Rock, there are none or very few areas in which 51 percent of the residents are low and moderate income. For these grantees, the CDBG law authorizes an exception criterion in order for such grantees to be able to undertake area benefit activities. For Round Rock, the low-moderate income threshold for any area benefit activity is 47.4%. Section 105(c)(2)(A)(ii) at 24 CFR 570.208(a)(1)(H), identifies the methodology to calculate a grantee's "exception" threshold.

Please add your thoughts or comments below. • The Williamson Crisis center needs grants to continue to meet the needs of battered women and their children as well as to expand their services and outreach.There is also a need for public transportation to make getting around easter If you do not yet have a vehicle.There should also be more youn adult(25-40) events In the community as well as for chlldren ages 2-16 • Why Is It that monies are always taken from the programs such as Grants to help people, such as the one that could possibly be taken away that has given monies to the Williamson County Crisis Center(hope Alliance). If your staff would visit this facility and realize what all the Crisis Center does In order to help Women and Children of Domestic Violence and abuse, I think you would definitely reconsider where monies need to be spent and who to help. It is so hard for me to understand why people don't just automatically want to help In this area. Thousands of dollars are spent to hold an event, but yet to help women and children who are abused and left without homes, and sometimes walk away with only the clothes on their back, that no one thinks this Is Important, and funds will possibly be taken away. If everyone in RR would just donate$1 to the Crisis Center, based on the population here, that would help tremendously, but no one cares to campaign for this kind of help. You mentioned the word Domestic Violence and Abuse, and people tend to turn the opposite direction, unless they have a personal reason for wanting to help. People think they are going to be associated with the wrong kind of people, and they forget that those people doing the abusing are many times, the banker, the lawyer, city councilman, etc. Put the money where it is really needed, not where it will just fatten the pocket book of the person who Is already doing quite well financially. • Battered women and their children need more housing options when they leave the WCCC shelter. • I am taking this survey because there is a definite need to continue funding the Crisis Center. We have been receiving funding for three years and it's very needed. • Working directly with women and children from domestic violence or sexual assualt,there Is a definite need for more funding in these areas. • Round Rock (and Williamson County) has no shelters for homeless citizens, which Is a desperate need for our community. It also is difficult for our low-moderate residents to afford housing, http://ds2.vanguardsw.com/survey/vl/dscript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 20 of 31 especially those who have had challenges such as homelessness and need to find starter housing. However, it is also working families who need affordable housing In our community. The Round Rock shelter for survivors of domestic and sexual violence is a service that our community also benefits from supporting.This shelter, while serving our community as best It can, needs more space to serve those whose safety Is imminently at risk. • i thpoght of this area before yet we had to move back to canyon lake because we didnt have the funds to get the right home • The CDBG program has benefited the RR community in many ways. Transitional housing, for one, for adults and children have been and will be needed. It is a shame that most of us of moderate (and low) income families have to struggle so much to make ends meet. I would hope that these types of subsidies or assistance or improvements were available to help those In need. • While a need for transitional housing exists, private/non-profit/charitable entities should fulfill this need rather than our local government. Entitlement programs such as this lead to a dependency on government and an erosion of personal responsibility. • We need more affordable,safe, well-maintained housing for seniors. I wish the City of Round Rock would build more subsidized housing for seniors. Thanks for the survey. • I would like to see more work with groups like Habitat for Humanity. It gets local people Involved in improving the community and is a smart way to help people Improve themselves. • I think t'a'll have been doing a good job on all the historical aspects and I would like to see more with the library and clinics which I know has already been started and that should be continued also more running and/or bicycling trails.Thank you for all that good work. • Need more "family"events throughout the year(like the Christmas event) • N/A • N/A • if you build It,they will comel" Based on this, we need to look at the curent quality of life in R. R. and the standards we want upheld, and then decide which type of housing sults this criteria. As the aging population Increases, housing for Seniors will be in demand, as will the accompanying medical suppliers, from supplies to human resources. This is a nitche that R.R. doesn't have filled, and a potential source for revenue. • Thanks for doing this survey • Hope this helps. • I always think there is room for improvment to any community • If we add too much low Income support, our crime levels will definitely increase. We need to Improve the amenitites that the city has to offer to maintain our city's level of safety. • I don't know much about this program other than what you stated above. • I feel we need more activities for our middle school to high school age children. • Are we going to be advised of the things the money Is spent on before it Is spent? • You will not be able to accurately use these survey results due to the fact that participants are forced to answer qustions that do not apply In order for their survey to be counted. • We certainly can could use some hehp in updating our park area such as newer playscape and rides for the children. Also,some micro paving done years ago needs patching or re-paving especially While Oak Loop and Cedar Bend. • I live in a wonderful neighborhood but would [like to see more outdoor parks that don't cost a bundle to go to. • The entrance ramp to I35 between hwy 74 to 3406 needs to be extended the full length (similar to entrance ramp between McNeil and 620) • na • I would like to see the city declare some worn out rental houses'unfit for humans' and require the owner to fix them. I don't want any of my neighbors to be displaced but I also don't them to be hurt when a house falls down. The houses are on Trailways and Shady Loop off Pecan Avenue between Veterans Park and Georgetown Rd in old downtown. The owner should not rent any of the vacant houses until they are made safe. • "Community" developoment funds, seem to me to be most approprlatly used for things the whoe citizenry benefits from: new sidewalks and curbs in a specific neighborhood rather than build structures for people to live In; I believe Individual capatalism should rule that roost. • I pay most of the taxes and get none of the benefits. • My family would like to see more hike and bike trails that inter-connect with parks and neighborhoods. • I really don't know answers to 4&5 http://ds2.vanguardsw.com/survey/vl/dscript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 21 of 31 • I'm particularly interested in programs/developement specifically for young families. • Thanks! • This probably does not fall under CGBG, but RR needs to be cleaned up-along the roadways especially. TRASH everywhere. Tacky, tacky, tackyl We need more pride in the appearance of the City. And, don't say It's the county's responsibility. • Let's improve/add parks, widen roads, provide more bvike paths and activity centers for youth and adults. If you really want a solution to help the poor, then maybe we should Invest In affordable daycare centers and afterschool care so that the parents can go out there and work hard or get an education to get a better job and help themselves get out of their situation. • Sam Bass Road need to be cleaned up and widened. Traffic is unerasonable now. It can take 30 minutes to travel less then 5 miles during rush hour. • Reducing real estate property taxes so that It is fair to all. Why do other houses In our subdivision have lowetr property taxes than others while their houses are larger and more valuable. This needs to be balanced out. • Bus- public transportation service • The downtown and surrounding streets and neighborhoods need attention. These areas have been neglected as to: streets, sidewalks, walk trails, and bike routes, drainage, and traffic flow. Please assign funds to remedy problems in this often neglected area of Round Rock. These areas are the oldest yet the least servicedl )esus Franco • Prayfully, these funds will be used according to the needs of the community...I understand at a local high school more than 60% of the students have babies and the daycare solution Is very weak...apparently it is too late for prevention at this point...what type of plan of action is in place for these teens who are now young, inexperience parents. • In my opinion we all need to work together to 1mrove what God made for us. Keep it clean and able to help all that need be. • It would be a great help for the community. • Nonel • Round Rack needs beautification and added amenities for the IH 35 Corridor. It is not mainained and very much an eye sore. In addition, I would like to see more centralized parks and family type outings to bring the community together. I think RRPD is doing a good job. Many folks have asked for more routine law enforcement type community efforts to meet the officers in their sector, more face to face public relations. Thanks, • The City of Round Rock is very well run and I appreciate living here for the last 14 years. • I think these funds should be used for affordable housing and repairing housing, not on street, infrastructure, or city parks. Housing is more critical then parks-and the streets/sidewalks can be handled via current tax dollars. • I believe Round Rock has been generous enough to the lower income population. Although I think there have been some wonderful things done, I think there's a point where you start to attract the wrong element. For ex, I saw a man begging on the NE side of IH35&Louis Henna on Saturday morning. This is something I have never seen nor want to see in Round Rock. If we continue catering to the low Income population as seems to be the trend, we'll end up like E. Rundberg in Austin. Although I am all about helping the poor, I think there have to be boundaries. • I support the Baptist Children's Home for a place for both adults and children at risk. I think private and faith based entities do a better job of caring for homeless and those in need. Therefore,I prefer funds from government entities be used for Infrastructure, public entities like libraries, and the promotion of correct housing needs if those are unmet. • This survey Is an excellent idea. • My primary concern is the safety, appearance and maintenance of my neighborhood and surrounding areas, i.e. road conditions, lawn maintenance, cleanliness, etc. Bradford Park via High Country is a major thoroughfare for high volume traffic to/from Gattis School/45 Toll Rd and the roads and landscaping is in need of repair from the traffic. • 4n Question 12. We do not qualify from year 2006, but would In 2007 and 2008. • Nothing has ever come about for the MURDER that took place in my development! • I think the money would be best spent upgrading existing LMI housing. I do not believe creating more low income housing would bring positive outcomes for Round Rock. It is my opinion that low income housing will always end up in worse condition than it was the day before. • we already have problems with not enough schools in the area, that is why there is currently some http://ds2.vanguardsw.com/survey/vl/dscript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 22 of 31 construction In the Turtle Creek area, and some re-drawing of school limits. If we start adding apartments to the area, where are those kids going to attend school? larger classrooms means less time the teacher spends with the children. Round Rock has a very good school district precisely because we are not overcrowded in the classrooms, let's not change that. And we could use a community park in the double creek area. Thank you for your service. • Please limit the amount of section 8 housing in our community. My family chose Round Rock over surrounding areas for the low crime rate,schools, and overall "small town"atmosphere. • To me Round Rock is a great middle Midddle Class and upper Middle Class community. Do not bring in no-Income and low-income folks-- and their crime. I will leave Round Rock, and leave It to those folks. No offense Intended, but I do not have to live with dopeheads and criminals--very unhealthy for them If they should break Into my house. • Taxes dollars should be used to help those that are less fortunate. When precelved govermant waste occurs, that Is when tax payers get discouraged. • Development of more public housing, especially for seniors, should be a priority. • I'm somewhat upset at the appearance of the tolle roads, I.e.,IH 45, etc. It has ruined the look, has become increasingly heavy with traffic. It appears it Is harder to get around than before. I am pleased that the crossover between Wal-Mart and Target is being re-installed. Whoever thinks up these "ways"to improve apparently do not live here. You really need to re-open or facilitate the IH35 ramps that were closed before. It Is my understanding that a perfectly good bridge at Hester's Crossing will be removed to make "Improvements"for traffic...that remains to be seen. • We need speed bumps or a method to control the amount of traffic and their speed. Additionally, we need protection rails on the properties close to the hill as some of the vehicles have lost control and hit their properties • Although I live here and do not work here, It is only because I am retired, and not because I work somewhere else. You didn't allow for this distinction, and it may not really matter to you for your purposes. I don't want R.R. to become a slum area, so feel the need to encourage all levels of incomed people to live here. To do this, we have to have available higher end housing,too. To cater only to the Indigent and poor wlli only attract more of them here, and the wealthier people will move away. Also, Seniors who are alone need comfortable, affordable housing in a safe area, similar to Stonehaven in Georgetown. The apartments In Round Rocks assisted rent area are too little, with living rooms little more than B'wide and 8' long. Use common sense when designing housing, and realize that if you would feel clostrophobic living in such tiny apts., others certainly would,too. Those in Stonehaven are just right. + no . I don't think we need to cater to low Income housing. Let Austin do It. I would like to see us take a stand and maintain a medium to high income standard for greater Round Rock. No need to go asking for trouble when we do not have to. • Don't think Round Rock needs any more apartment complexes • The more lower Income homes//housing you bring, you'll find more crime will occur and you'll have to beef up our police. I want our county and city to continue to be one of the safest in the country&state. • There are many homes in many neighborhoods that have trash coming out of the garages. Too many cars in driveways and even yards. Too many cars In streets. Each yard should have to have grass and some sort of neatness. • I work in the LIHTC Property Management industry. Round Rock is overbuilt with affordable multi- family housing and does not need additional units. • Thanks for caring enough to ask our opinion. Round Rock Is a pretty nice place to live, but I think It has a reputation of having too many lower value home subdivisions. I've heard It referred to as "Bubbaville" which doesn't do much to promote the values within the city. • We need to emply the "work for welfare" concept that greatly reduced welfare rolls In New York City and provided people with usable skills to then apply for jobs. I've worked in service agencies (food banks, etc.) for 7 years here and noted that those tend to make younger families and people dependent on them rather that help them get out of their dependent lifestyles. • Love the city...keep it special • Round Rock has too much mixed use properties near each other. Round Rock should focus on http://ds2.vanguardsw.com/survey/vl/dscript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 23 of 31 more high end development. Adding more appartment complexes puts more demand on city services and schools- round rock should focus on middle income and above development and attractive Industries that improve the quality of life for the community • 7 people cannot comfortably live on $70,000 a year. Who pays for daycare, food clothing and education for their children at that rate? • An explanation of"transitional housing" might have enabled me to offer a meaningful response. As it is, I chose "no" because I'm not famlliary with the term. • I am concerned about possible overbuilding addordable housing, from what I understand occupancy rates are well below the goals that have been set. I recommend using the funds for landscaping roadsides and improving the appearance of Round rock to attract higher end tax paying homeowners. ,average home prices are declining to much/ • Making Round Rock a well run community is most Important, along with making it clean (like garbage on streets- lots etc) being removed and planting trees and Improving parks and landscaping are important. A beautiful community attracts business. Additionally helping the young and children are critical to our future. • All of these are"good things" but to me housing for seniors, moderate or low income, is of the utmost Importance- not mentioned In your survey was transportation for those without means. • "community development"should be for the benefit of the community. Not individuals who are down on their luck.There are plenty of social programs out there for that. Personal responsibllityl I • I feel that making Round Rock affordable for low-moderate Income families is contributing to the increase In crime and juvenile delinquency that I am seeing. I also feel the monies should help facilitate in Improving our community. Possibly by adding a "free to join/go" facility for our youth to go to help "sharpen" their sklils(music, art, athletic ability, ect.), help Increase their personal feelings of self worth, potential, and ablities to make a brighter future for themselves. They need a safe place to go and Interact with "peers" in a positive way. Too many families are struggling to make ends meet, that the"family unit"Is not top priority. I do understand that many families have to work long hours or more than one job to make ends meet. I feel this is the reason why our youth Is getting Into trouble, with gangs, drugs, etc. They just want the feeling of"belonging" and "aceptance". Gangs provide this when families are too busy trying to put food on the table, and keeping a roof over their head. The same could be said about drugs. The youth form their own "group"that have a common intrest...drugs, and to be "accepted"or"belong", one must use. I am aware of the Clay Madison center and the YMCA, however my understanding Is there Is a fee to join,and many families, no matter how small the fee,just simply cannot afford It or the location Is not convienent. A free community center would also put a parents mind at ease, knowing their child is spending their time In a positive way, and not out and about getting Into trouble. This center could benifit parents as well by offering classes that appeal to them,such as learning English, cooking healthier(in hopes to decrease the obesity problem in our youth), and just plain "family time" activities for parents and children to get together and Interact. Bottom line, I would like to see Round Rock become more of a "community" and "family-unit", to put family values and morals as a priority again, no matter what the Income level is. -J.M. • I am not altogether sure about needs for transitional housing, nor for some of the programs in Q. #3. Some of htese things may be covered with state or federal monies. • Senior citizens transportation • Building low income housing will decreases the values of the homes within this area and Increase the crime rate within these areas. Lake Forest has seen an Increase in crime due to the affordable housing on Louis Henna. Please do not build anymore affordable housing in our city. • Senior citizen transportation • Better tree care for elderly oaks. We don't need more high density housing better developed (hike&bike)type parks. • I love my apt and neighborhood except the traffic. I love RR and never need to travel any where else. We need regular transportation for the people that don't have wheels. More lights for the streets It's too dark. • Apts. could be larger and less expensive • Apts. could be a little larger. • I work In Round Rock I would love to live here as well however there is no affordable housing for me and my family we are descent people trying to make a living as well as providing for the future http://ds2.vanguardsw.Com/survey/vl/dscript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 24 of 31 of our children. Cudos to whom ever put this survey together to care for the people and their input In this community. thank you. • Why does Round Rock not have any public transportation?A city of this size seems to me should have some sort of public transportaion. I know it would certainley help out with the traffic and the senior population In the city that don't have cars. Please consider this Item in your survey. PUBLIC TRANSPORTATIONIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIiI • Let Austin focus on the homeless and affordable housing. We moved to Round Rock to move up scale, not to bring everything down to the lowest common denominator. • Need speed bumps along Bradford Park Drive,speed limit is 30mph however most cars exceed the limit. Many children, including my own, play near this road. • I had a problem with queston number 8 either or. The problem with my house may very well be unfixable due to soil conditions. • Most of these programs are tax payer rip-offs/take from the responsible and productive, and distribute to the non-productive and irresponsible/many who administer these programs are taking care of themselves and their agenda-Not the hard working,TRUE taxpayers • I really don't know what transitional housing is except for what the TBCH offers. I would hate to see our city set up neighborhoods for homeless funded by tax dollars. This type of set up is typically a handout and is never managed properly. What tends to happen Is you end up with large amounts of people living in one area that are versed in milking the welfare system. I would rather see tax dollars go to trade education for these individuals with the pretext that as long as you are attended classes, getting your kids to school on time and keeping your yard/home In repair, we'll pay for your education and foodstamps. This is for older teens, too. If we provide education/trade/housing for them, then they need to do their part. Children 17 and under are helped when their parents are held accountable, If their parents are not willing to be responsible and take care of them properly, then the foster care system typically steps In anyway and that is definitely funded by the State of Texas i.e. our tax dollars. • We need to help take care of our seniors to keep them healthy and Independent. Given a younger population, the seniors of Round Rock are underserved in various areas. • We need to enhance our school curriculum to Insure our future stays Intact. • What Is really needed In Round Rock is more townhome and Condo communities. • From past personal experience, more Is needed to help moderate Income families who fall on hard times (lose a job and can't replace it soon enough to cover housing and food). Social services are available when you get to the point of losing your car--what is available to help keep you from getting that far down?These people are totally left out from any kind of assistance, yet before they fell on hard times were most definitely paying the taxes that support those who do qualify for temporary or long-term assistance. • none • Public Transportation Is a critical need In Round Rock. Not evereybody has a car or wants to drive their car everyday. If Round Rock had a transit system or linked with CapMetro it would be a great service to many, many people who have no means of transportation and a service to those who desire to protect their environment by using mass transit as opposed to individual transportation. Housing for those In lower Income status Is critical. Round Rock has enough high end housing. • DPA-very good program to develop prosperous community. • We have lived in Round Rock for 21 years and have witnessed many changes. We need to focus our attention on meeting the needs of our existing population and businesses before expanding the business base any further. We have homelessness, hungry children, BIG drug problems, even some gang activity.The very character of the community has changed so much. We certainly have some housekeeping to attend to. • This is a severely underemployed area of the country lots of denial but on the edge of crisis financially for many of us who were downsized many times. All is not what It seems when you dig into earnings, savings, and spending. Very out of balanced picture. If you care offer services even in the areas that seem to need nothing, pride is the reason people have not sought you out. • The city needs to put curbs throughout the subdivision to prevent the repeated vandalism of the lawns and sprinker system. The city needs to fill the entry take...long overdue. • Please use block grants for the needy and seniors who today are facing huge Increases In expenses that one could not have anitcipated. We like when service workers can afford to live in our neighborhoods and everyone works together to build a strong community. All for one-one for all. • These questions are worded in such a way that it is difficult to know what is being asked. I have no Idea what"transitional housing" is, so it's hard to know if Round Rock needs it. What defines a http://ds2.vanguardsw.COM/survey/vl/dscript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 25 of 31 "crime issue" for a neighborhood? We deal with teenage vandalism a lot in our neighborhood, but I have no idea if that means we have "crime issues". • I would rather see NO low Income/affordable housing built In Round Rock. • Limited government and free market capitalism are the best approach. • Help those who most need it. That Is what the money should be used for. • Is it possible to put contact Information about Community Development grants in the water bill letter? I stumbled upon the CD grant while looking at the RR website. Downloaded the form, but haven't put together the info. yet. • With the rise In cost of living, many working people are finding that they are not able to meet their expenses and mortgages. • Local crime is a big concern for use, we have a house down the street that has a lot of shady people visiting and have a few crimes that Involved vanalizm. would like to see more local patrol activity In the neighborhoods at night. • This city needs connected parkland. I can't walk or jog near my house without almost getting hit by a car every time. • The best use of funds for poor children Is to Invest In their education, social development then schools will be better and wealthier subdivisions won't shun their participation In same schools. Perhaps a pilot preschool program for 2-S yr olds who otherwise would not be able to afford it? Or an afterschool program for older kids to help get homework done and teach them fun skills (archery, horseback, etiquette, how to study, etc.) Just some ideas. If we can nurture their brains at an earlier age than kindergarten, we can reap the benefits of the remaining 12 years of school for each with more personal success, I would hope. • More jobs in Round Rock • Round Rock does not need additonal low income housing. Our schools and our community is already taxed by the burden of providing school, medical services and other government services to illegal immigrants.The apartments being built are taxing our schools, parks and roadways. Smart growth Is required. • Sub Division needs to be policed better. Cars parked on sidewalks, dogs and cats running free and messing up our yards.Trucks parked for days on streets ect. • The Round Rock Area Serving Center could benefit from this funding as It services 5 zip codes. • I think more needs to be put Into parks and recreation to allow the low income residents' families access. Even though I do not fall Into that group, I find it expensive for my family to utilize these services. • Round Rock is already saturated with apartments. Vehicle traffic is at a stand-still. We must Improve the quality and quanity of roads before we over build the area with more apartments! • we in the southcreek subdivision are In need of street repairs they are very bumpy etc. Iwe do not need any more low Income housing In this area. • It would be great if the subdivisions were connected by sidewalks. Especially along rte. 3406. We could also use a sidewalk(because there's no shoulder on the road) to walk to the local restaurant and convenience stores.As It is, we're close to several stores and restaurants, but it's too dangerous for even an adult to walk or bike there. Plus, there's a railroad track that crosses 3406 and no way to get past it without walking on the tracks in a deserted area. • If you want to develop the community use this money to encourage people to take ownership in the community. A free lunch does not develop ownership. Nothing is free. Give something but get something in return. It may be"grant" money but it doesn't matter if it Federal, State, County or City Its still someone else's tax dollars. • Please consider adding green areas that can be accessed and USED by families with children. Many current green areas are not accessable to low Income housing families. • Side-walk repair and/or installation required. Uneven sidewalks making it unsafe for families to walk down sidewalk. Some streets have no sidewalks (Sunrise Rd) • I seriously think the money should go to Code enforcement. If we keep up how our town looks, we will also attract more and more businesses, therefor leading of more jobs for our community and less need for government assitance for the residents. • we love round rock and the progress It has made since we've moved here! • Downpayment assistance, home repair, rehab loans,low income apartments &affordable housing are all vital to the diversity&improvemnt of the community.Right now, we need to focus on these things most. • More low income places for seniors to live • Please help funding for low Income houses • I do not know enough about these type problems to offer any comments http://ds2.vanguardsw.com/survey/Vl/dscript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 26 of 31 • Round Rock needs Public Transportation. • I want RR to have Capital Metro come in the City so I can ride the bus, van pool for$25 per month, or train to work. Gas is too expensive driving back and forward to Austin. • There was no inclusion of public transportation which I believe is critical to the current population of RR and the expected Increase over the next few decades. With the huge influx of new residents and the additional vehicles that Involves, public transportation should be a major consideration for this community. That, coupled with the ever Increasing cost of gas and aging of us"baby boomers", should be driving factors In moving forward on this Issue as expediciously as possible. • Round Rock is seriously lacking public transportalon. We have a number of senior citizens and people with disabilities that need this service. We also need to come together as a community to provide more recreational and job opportunities for people with disablilities. The public school system spends a great deal of resources to prepare these young adults for a transition Into the community only to find out that there Is very little for this population. • In desperate need of reliable, ample TRANSPORTATION in Round Rock. For allllillllllll • I believe we should put this money toward helping those who are trying to help themselves. There are some people that give poor people a bad name by taking advantage of the generolsity of others, Including civil authorities. I hope you will have an appropriate process to weed out these people who think they deserve to receive everything free. There should be a requirement to work and support themselves and their families, unless they are disabled in some way that prevents the person from doing this. The other items that I checked to use this money are Items that benefit the whole community. I hope you have a balanced committee that will make these decisions for you. • I think we need a recycling program. I do not think we should have to pay additional to recycle and I have my doubts the materials you put out and pay to recycle are actually being recycled. • Our city and dept. heads have done a good job for our tax dollars palded.THANKS D.M. • Great survey design, overall. Please review #4 and #5 as an option for I don't know is what I would have selected in both cases since I do not know. Thanks for your time. • this neighborhood is not as nice as it once was due to the low income housing that Is now in the area. • Round Rock Is a pleasant place to live. One of the reasons is that we do not encourage panhandling and vangrants. • LOWER MY TAXES NOW • I would like to have a mandatory home owners assoc. In our neighborhood to ensure the quality and cleanliness of our community. I would be willing to pay 50-100 dues If necessary to get our neighborhood clean. • Stop trying to help everyone; this Is life, it is not fair, you have to work for what you wantl • Habitat For Humanity should be part of your program.The monies can be used to acquire land and help fund homes for families that live In Round Rock. I was disappointed that HFH did not receive any monies last year when you had more than $200k that was not even spent in your budget. These are the types of people and programs that truly make a difference. It Is a hand up, not a hand out.Thanks. • Public facilities and Improvements (libraries, clinics, etc.) Libraries are for the citizens.......don't know what"clinics"you mean. 2. Do you work in Round Rock? Yes or No. Neither, we're retired. • We are becoming more like Pflugerville, Manor, and East Austin. Standards are going down rather than up.This Is turning our schools into a war zone. Gangs are taking hold at both Stony Point and Round Rock High. We've got to tum this around or people like me will join the flight to Cedar Park or elsewhere. • please no more low income housing in this area III srtreets and streetlights are in need of repair in this subdivision • Please spray for mosquitos. It is insane the amount of them In this town, and nothing Is done by the city. I've encountered fewer in Lousislana at my In-laws than In my own back yard in Round Rock. • I would like to see Round Rock not cater to low Income housing. I'd rether like it to be a mid to high end comunity. Let Austin have the trash and low Income seems they don't want roads nor progress of late. • Round Rock has lots of community resources that go to waste because we go to the ends of the earth to get something under our noses. A good example--the school system brings in authors white we sit on a gold mine of literary talent. Why not do something that benefits local authors and our own students? Put aside grants to purchase locally written books that are appropriate for http://ds2.vanguardsw.com/survey/vl/dscript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 27 of 31 the classroom? It is inspirational for a child to say "Someone in my community wroter this. Someone In my community publishes with Random House. I can too." • I think Round Rock has plenty of apartments. Round Rock needs social services to help needy clients navigate the difflcuit issues with getting government assistance. • Round Rock needs less minimum wage retail jobs, and more jobs that manufacture actual products. Also, too many new homes being built, thus appreciate on existing homes is slow. Too much competition to sell a home in Round Rock with all the new developments. Homeowners are taking a hit on their Investment in the home. • I feel we may have too many apartment complexes. I'm also concerned about the number of strip malls going up and how many are not Filled with businesses • A few of these items do not have sufficient Information. For Instance, what are you considering 'transitional housing mentioned In questions 4&5?' In question 3, Is this the only resource for funding for these items? • I understand the concern that low Income housing may bring down property values, but those families In need of affordable housing do spend here In RR and contribute to our tax base. Providing for the needy is just the right thing to do. • Neighborhood code reinforcement is needed in South Creek, such as,yard and trash. Thanksl • We don't need an Influx of poor and folks that live off the tit of government. As RR grows, more of our freedoms dwindle and the more we are turning Into a big government, big city with all the associated problems.Thanks Mayor and City Council. Califomication Is a big problem too. Let's use the money for a campaign called "Go home and tell everyone Round Rock sucks." • Redesign/modify the intersection of AW Grimes&Logan. Southbound Grimes traffic does not see southbound vehicles exiting Logan until It's too late.Try to pull out of Logan, headed South when Grimes traffic in zooming by. Getting broadsided at 45mph, death comes swiftly. Dennis Koch - kochkamp@austin.rr.com • I THINK CITY MONIES SHOULD BE USED FOR THE UPKEEP OF ROADS,SCHOOLS AND SERVICES AND THATS ALL • We do not need any nore low Income housing in Round Rock. Nor do we need any more apartments or other forms of multi-family housing. Please build more parks and trails. • Too much traffic. • I would like to see areas that need Improvements such as roads and entryways to subdivisions improved. • I notice a lot of Individuals in my neighborhood who could use help in repairs to their homes. I believe as a community, we should make available help for those who need and want to make their homes safer and more livable. • I believe that Round Rock has adequate housing to supply for the needs of those within our city limits. Our neighbors to the south and north provide needed housing as well and in looking at the whole area I feet there is enough at each level for this time. • I think we need more police patrols in our neighborhood. We pay a great deal of taxes to live in this area and I feel the police don't come out because "this isn't a problem area". In other words, the squeeky wheel gets the attention. Since we don't have that many problems the police aren't out that much. We have kids destroying stuff and driving on the lawn borders on forest creek drive all the time. If the police were out here more often, they would have a better chance of stopping this disturbance. We also have cars exceeding the speed limit all the time on forest creek drive. Please pass this on to the RR police. It costs us about$25,000 a year to repair the lawn and the broken sprinkler heads.Thanksl • I would like to have the Enclave water&sewer utilities to be supplied by the City of Round Rock. • We would love to see more trails and paths to hike, walk, etc. Also -I would love It If we could get a couple of dog parks, where the dogs can run, legally, free to play with other dogs. • 2006 was the First year we are just squeeking by with above family Income. All the previous years we were well below, and due to medical reasons I had to use the food bank. I feel we need more of these and better ways of letting the public know about the clothes closet the schools have set up. Also we need more public transportation to these. The carts bus should pick up the lower Income families from the schools twice a week to transport them to the facilities. Usually they don't have a second car to take them. • This does not apply to me, we are out of the bracket, sorry I forwarded the email to my friends. • None • With RR growing the cost of living for single parents are outrageous If there were more programs assisting families to become independent such as programs preparing them to become homeowners which includes budeting, tax advantages, a walk through http://ds2.vanguardsw.com/survey/vl/dscript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 28 of 31 of the whole mortage process. • low income housing needs to be an easy process for those who could use it. programs that are available to help in assisting young adults and teen moms should be easy to find upon request. • I live In the Southeast quadrant of the city and feel there are plenty of apartments on this side of town • I would like to see sidewalk and street repair on Cooke off Main Street. When It rains this street floods quickly and there's little room to walk around the big puddles and this street leads to the school bus stop. I have an elementary student who is effected by this area which Is overdue for much needed repair. • I may qualify, but I don't need aslstance, and I don't want people who really don't need it applying. The annual Income should be a lot lower to receive assistance for people who own their own homes outright and have no debts. This assistance should be for low Income only. • NONE • If there was more low Income housing I would not be at the Children's Baptist home and we need more free clinics for dental and other things to. and we need to be able to have more at the chlldrens Baptist home. more room than all for cause the chlldrens baptist home Is great place. • Need more services for non English specking families • I just moved to Williamson County about a yr ago. I am not familiar with transitional housing for adults or children in this area. my husband and I would not qualify for CDBG funds but my son and grandson would. • youth program with affordable price In neighborhood. • some of this money should be used to better our children &teenagers from drugs and gang or violent activities. that to it should also be used for minority families &low Income housings. • Think Round Rock is a very good place to live. • Lets be leaders in a pedestrian friendly downtown &shopping centers- maintain a city where we can be proud to live and grow old in. • I work in substance abuse prevention &education through schools&other. See great great need for halway houses and other transitional living need. Also of course for good and affordable mental health treatment assistance. • Transitional Housing is a need here, we operate this service In Travis Co. &find people calling from this area to request service transportation also a large nee. Our caregivers for senios have difficulty wigh having reliable transportation.This reduces the number in workforce available to help seniors. • I am CEO of the Wmson.

But people that are just like me have to learn to live with the grace of GOD each day. It would be great for people to be able to live in a home instead of an apartment for their children to grow up secure. But funds are not there for some this Families at this time. Looking for the city to be able to work with private owner in renting out private property at a lower cost to low income families (plus those that a good citizens of this city will stay to make this city the best all around). I have faith this will come in the future to everyone. Thank you for time and work you have done for us. • The cost of living, especially housing is at a rate that leaves some of our families without affordable housing. We have almost no properties available and very long waiting lists for the few we have. While Habit for Humanity is a fantastic program-it is extremely limited In the number of families it can serve. In addition, housing repairs for those less fortunate and/or the elderly also go undone, leading to even bigger costs of repair, ruin and the decline of neighborhoods. We have done a great job advocating for those who have more-not those who have less. Our emphasis on sports, fitness, families, business, retail, health care-these are all wonderful gifts for our community. I would like to see us pour these same efforts into affordable housing, accessable transportation, and services for those less fortunate, struggling citizens of our community.

City of RR has not focused on traffic congestions on Gattis School Road. It is needed BADiy. The Gattis School road and also to Clay Madsen needs to be widened to have center lane. Beautify the city should be a top priority. Projection on resources ( like water and water quality) should be a top priority. http://ds2.vanguardsw.com/survey/vl/dscript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 30 of 31 • Question 11 should be worded more like "Do you feel we need new apartment housing and if so, what kind?"and than mark the categories that apply. • I think that the CDBG funds should continue to benefit the Round Rock Area Serving Center.

We also need to give help for the working poor! It needs to turn back around to WE THE PEOPLE. • we need more housing for the elderly and are seniors and/or disabled • We definitely need more housing for seniors &parks to go to. • Help with medications.

In addition to these funds, the 2004-2009 Five Year Consolidated Plan is being amended by "deprogramming" and "reprogramming" $173,477.08 to fund projects identified in this plan. The "deprogrammed"funds are monies unspent from prior years as shown in Table 2. "Reprogrammed" funds are shown in Table 3. HUD has determined that $80,360 must be repaid to the City's CDBG program fund due to a change of use of a public facility owned by the City that was improved with CDBG funds and no longer meets a national objective. Table 4 shows the methodology used by HUD to determine the recapture amount. Any project or activity must meet one of three National Objectives to be eligible: (1) Benefit low-to-moderate income persons; or (2) Prevent slum or blight; or (3) Meet an urgent need (HUD's definition) and accomplish one of the following CDBG program Objectives: (1) Provide decent affordable housing; or (2) Create suitable living environments; or (3) Create economic opportunities and have one of the following CDBG program Outcomes: (1) Availability/accessibility; or (2) Affordability; or (3) Sustainability and must indicate the number of persons that will benefit from the project that: (1) Have new access to the project or activity; or (2) Have improved access to the project or activity; or (3) Are now served by the project or activity that is no longer substandard. Fourth Program Year Action Plan I Version 2.0 Jurisdiction HUD Outcome Performance Measurement System There are three main components to the Outcome Performance Measurement System: 1. Objectives; 2. Outcomes; and 3. Indicators. Objectives The Outcome Performance Measurement System offers three possible objectives for each activity. These objectives are based on the broad statutory purposes of the four Community and Planning Development (CPD) programs: ■ Creating Suitable Living Environments relates to activities that are designed to benefit communities, families, or individuals by addressing issues in their living environment. This objective relates to activities that are intended to address a wide range of issues faced by low-and moderate- income persons, from physical problems with their environment, such as poor quality infrastructure, to social issues such as crime prevention, literacy, or elderly health services. ■ Providing Decent Housing covers the wide range of housing activities that are generally undertaken with HOME, CDBG, or HOPWA funds. This objective focuses on housing activities whose purpose is to meet individual family or community housing needs. It does not include programs where housing is an element of a larger effort to make community-wide improvements, since such programs would be more appropriately reported under Suitable Living Environments. ■ Creating Economic Opportunities applies to activities related to economic development, commercial revitalization, or job creation. The objectives are framed broadly to capture the range of community impacts that occur as a result of program activities. Outcomes The second component of the system is designed to capture the nature of the change or the expected result. HUD has established the following three outcomes to use when considering funding activities: ■ Availability/Accessibility applies to activities that make services, infrastructure, public services, public facilities, housing, or shelter available or accessible to low-and moderate-income people, including persons with disabilities. In this category, accessibility does not refer only to physical barriers, but also to making the basics of daily living available and accessible to low-and moderate-income people where they live. ■ Affordability applies to activities that provide affordability in a variety of ways to low-and moderate-income people. It can include the creation or maintenance of affordable housing, basic infrastructure hook-ups, or services Fourth Program Year Action Plan 2 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction such as transportation or day care. Affordability is an appropriate objective whenever an activity is lowering the cost, improving the quality, or increasing the affordability of a product or service to benefit a low-income household. ■ Sustainability applies to activities that are aimed at improving communities or neighborhoods, helping to make them livable or viable by providing benefit to persons of low-and moderate-income or by removing or eliminating slums or blighted areas, through multiple activities or services that sustain communities or neighborhoods. Indicators There are common indicators that will be reported for nearly all program activities. Others are activity-specific indicators that are relevant only for the specific activity the City is undertaking. Data on all of the indicators that describe the results of an activity must be reported. Common Indicators There are four common indicators that are relevant for most activities: ■ Amount of money leveraged from other Federal, state, local, and private sources. ■ Number of persons, households, businesses, units or beds assisted, as appropriate. ■ Income levels of persons or households by 30 percent, 50 percent, 60 percent, or 80 percent of area median income. ■ Race, ethnicity, and disability data Specific Indicators There are eighteen activity specific indicators that are identified in Federal Register Notice Volume 71, March 7, 2006, as part of the standardized format: 1. Public facility or infrastructure activities 2. Public service activities 3. Geographically targeted activities a. Number of new businesses assisted b. Number of businesses retained c.

Number of acres of remediated brownfields i. Number of households with new or improved access to public facilities/services j. Number of commercial fagade treatment/business building rehab k. Optional indicators (crime rates, property value change, housing code violations, business occupancy rates, employment rates, homeownership rates) 4. Number of commercial fagade treatment/business building rehab (site, not target area based Fourth Program Year Action Plan 3 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction 5. Number of acres of brownfields remediated (site, not target based) 6. New rental units per project or activity 7. Rental units rehabilitated 8. Homeownership units constructed, acquired and/or repaired with rehabilitation (per project or activity) 9. Owner occupied units rehabilitated or improved 10. Direct financial assistance to homebuyers 11. Tenant based rental assistance 12. Number of persons given overnight shelter 13. Number of beds created in overnight shelter or other emergency housing 14. Homelessness prevention 15. Jobs created 16. Jobs retained 17. Businesses assisted 18. Goods or services provided by assisted business Fourth Program Year Action Plan This document was created by using HUD's new CPMP tool and is designed to address all Federal statutory requirements, including the new performance measurements.

Fourth Program Year Action Plan 7 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction Priority Needs Determination The priority needs were determined primarily from consultation with City staff, public hearings, surveys, and local service providers. Key factors affecting the determination of the five-year priorities included: 1) the types of target income households with greatest need for assistance; 2) those activities that will best address their needs; and 3) the limited amount of funding available to meet those needs. The priority ranking system for housing and community development needs is as follows: • High Priority: Activities assigned high priorities are expected to be funded during the five-year period. • Medium Priority: As funds are available, activities that are medium priority are expected to be funded. • Low Priority; Activities assigned low priorities are not expected to be funded during the five-year period. The City may support application for public assistance by other agencies if those activities conform to the Consolidated Plan. • No Such Need: The City has determined that there is no need for these activities in the community. Funding will not be provided and applications by other agencies will not be supported. In the 2004-2009 Consolidated Plan, Tables 3-1 and 3-2 identify the priorities assigned to the housing and community development activities. Underserved Needs Despite efforts, there remain a number of significant obstacles to meeting underserved needs. The following obstacles to meeting these needs in Round Rock are: • Rapid population growth • Cut backs in state and federal funding for basic needs services • High cost of housing • Need for transportation to existing services and childcare exceed available services One of the Transportation Division goals is to enhance alternate transportation choices available to Round Rock citizens. The city has undergone a study for mass transit and has established scenarios for bus routes that would access the major retail centers, hospitals, and college campus in Round Rock. High cost of housing continues to be an obstacle for new homeowners and renters. Round Rock will become the lead entity in a proposed HOME consortium and make application to the Department of Housing and Urban Development for HOME dollars in March 2006. This money will be used as gap financing for the development of affordable housing. Fourth Program Year Action Plan & Version 2.0 Jurisdiction Managing the Process The City of Round Rock Office of Community Development within the Planning Department serves as the lead agency for the Consolidated Plan and administration of CDBG funds. The following agencies were consulted in the development of this annual action plan: Interfaith Care Alliance, Life Steps, Williamson County and Cities Health District, Bluebonnet Trails MHMR, The Round Rock Volunteer Center, Williamson-Burnet Counties Opportunities, Round Rock Independent School District, United Way of Greater Williamson County, Agape Pregnancy Resource Center, Round Rock Housing Authority, the Round Rock Area Serving Center, and the Williamson County Crisis Center. Round Rock will continue to host interagency meetings on a monthly basis to enhance coordination between public and private housing, health, and social service agencies. Citizen Participation Citizen participation, an integral part of developing Round Rock's 2007-2008 Fourth Program Year Action Plan, was obtained through public hearings, public meetings, and a community needs assessment survey. The City's Citizen Participation Plan that was adopted with the first five year Consolidated Plan, details procedures to follow for public hearings, plan amendments, reporting information, and public accountability. The City held seven public hearings to solicit input from residents and social services providers on the needs in Round Rock. Those meetings were held at the following locations: Tuesday,February 27,2007 Tuesday,February 27,2007 Thursday,March 1,2007 Public Service Agency Meeting St.Williams Catholic Church Community Development Advisory 301 West Bagdad Parish Hall Commission McConico Community Room 1000 McNeil Road City Council Chambers Round Rock, TX 78664 Round Rock TX 78681 221 E.

In addition to the public hearings, citizens were able to access the 2007 Community Needs Survey to prioritize community needs for a 60 day comment period beginning February 19, 2007 at the official city website. Over 700 survey responses were received through 5:00 p.m. on Friday, March 30, 2007, with 223 written comments. See Appendix A. Fifteen service provider organizations and 23 senior residents attended the meetings. Comments from the meetings are included in Appendix A. According to responses received, the key needs of low and moderate income persons in Round Rock are: • Child care • Transportation (buses) • Affordable single family homes • Job Training • Battered and abused spouse services • Youth programs • Temporary/emergency housing • Down payment assistance for homebuyers • Affordable housing for senior citizens • Home repair loans • Neighborhood parks • Community centers • Job creation/retention The Fourth Program Year Action Plan is available for public review and comments for 30 days beginning June 18, 2007. Public hearings will be held by the Community Development Advisory Commission on July 5 and by the City Council on July 12. Institutional Structure Effective implementation of the Consolidated Plan involves a variety of agencies. Coordination and collaboration between agencies is important to ensuring that the needs in the community are addressed. The key agencies that are involved in the implementation of the Plan as well as additional resources that may be available are discribed below. Public Sector City of Round Rock, Office of Community Development The Office of Community Development is responsible for the administration of the City's programs funded by CDBG money. This office has primary responsibility for managing and implementing the City's affordable housing programs, the Consolidated Plan programs, and related documents. Fourth Program Year Action Plan 10 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction Other city departments also involved in providing services include Code Enforcement, Parks and Recreation Department, and the Public Works Department. Williamson County and Cities Health District (WCCHD) WCCHD offers a variety of services to Round Rock and Williamson County residents, including: • Alcohol and Drug Services • Children's Services • Family Assistance • Public Health Services • Senior Services • Emergency Services Round Rock Housing Authority The Round Rock Housing Authority administers the Housing Choice (Section 8) Voucher Program. The City works in close consultation with the Housing Authority regarding public housing issues in Round Rock. The Round Rock Development Cooperation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization established by the Housing Authority for the purpose of purchasing and developing affordable housing. Non-Profit Agencies No community development organizations that construct housing for target income households or provide rehabilitations services are located in the City. However, some are located in Austin which is close proximity to Round Rock. Private Sector The private sector is an important collaborator in the services and programs associated with the Consolidated Plan. The private sector brings additional resources and expertise that can be used to supplement existing services or fill gaps in the system. Lenders, affordable housing developers, business and economic development organizations, and private sector providers offer a variety of assistance to residents such as health care, small business assistance, home loan programs, and assisted housing, among others. Some of these organizations include the Round Rock Development Corporation which has been active in purchasing affordable housing and the Small Business Development Center which provides resources to local and start up businesses. Coordination The City is committed to continuing its participation and coordination with federal, state, county, and local agencies, as well as with the private and non-profit sector, to serve the needs of target income individuals and families I the community. Fourth Program Year Action Plan 11 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction In particular, the City will continue to work in close coordination with area service providers for the provision of services. The City will also work with the building industry to address housing needs. Monitoring The City of Round Rock has developed a monitoring system to ensure that the activities carried out in the Plan are done so in a timely manner in accordance with the federal monitoring requirements of 24 CFR 570.501(V) and 24 CFR 85.40 and all other applicable laws, regulations, policies, and sound management and accounting practices. The objectives of monitoring are: • To assure that subrecipients are carrying out their program/project as described; • To assure that subrecipients are implementing the program/project in a timely manner; • To assure that subrecipients are assessing costs to the program/ project which are eligible under CDBG regulations and the contract; • To assure that subrecipients are conforming with other applicable laws, regulations, and terms of he agreement; • To assure that the program/project is operating in a manner that minimizes the opportunity for fraud, waste, and mismanagement; • To assure that subrecipients have the capacity to carry out the approved project/ project; • To assure that subrecipients are carrying out their program/project as described. The City will track and report on its progress toward meeting its housing and community development goals. On an annual basis, City staff will prepare a Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) that summarizes progress on goals and priorities in the Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plan. Lead-based Paint The majority of residential housing development in Round Rock occurred after the use of lead-based paint was banned; however, some areas of the community may have some homes with lead based paint. With the implementation of the Minor Home Repair program, the program policy and procedures manual address compliance with the Residential Lead Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992 (Title X) and subsequent changes in September, 1999. The procedures include: • Notification • Identification • Treatment (if necessary) Fourth Program Year Action Plan 12 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction Specific Housing Objectives Round Rock will continue its down payment and closing costs assistance for first time homebuyers. The Minor Home Repair Program will be used to assist families in bringing their property up to code. Priorities for home repair assistance have been established and will be implemented when there is a waiting list for future projects. Both programs have residency requirements that will trigger repayment of loans if property sells, leases, or transfers title within the five year note period. Needs of Public Housing The City of Round Rock appoints a public housing tenant as a board member to the Housing Authority governing board. In addition to monthly board meetings, Housing Authority staff holds resident council meetings to get input from residents on what improvements they would like to see in their facilities. The Lancehaven family housing development has a small playground that is maintained by the City of Round Rock. This playground will be upgraded with CDBG and matching Housing Authority funds in fiscal year 2006. Plans to renovate the Westwood family development are being explored. This duplex project may become a two story multi family development in the future. A campaign to educate the public on public housing needs will kick off in 2006. Equipment needed for this campaign will be purchased with CDBG and matching Housing Authority funds. Barriers to Affordable Housing The City is committed to removing or reducing barriers to affordable housing whenever possible. Zoning standards for multifamily tracts have been amended that will allow redevelopment of existing multifamily public housing. Prior to the zoning amendment, all three public housing developments had density and acreage that did not meet the current standards. The Round Rock Housing Authority can now proceed with its plans to redevelop its properties. HOME/ American Dream Down payment Initiative (ADDI) Round Rock does not receive HOME/ADDI funds at this time. If these funds were available to Round Rock, they would be combined with private funds to make an investment with the Round Rock Housing Authority to maintain current affordable units and develop additional units. Fourth Program Year Action Plan 13 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction The City Council amended the city's zoning ordinance regarding minimum lot size for multi-family tracts. This previous barrier to affordable housing prevented the Round Rock Development Cooperation (part of the Round Rock Housing Authority) from expanding their existing properties. The minimum 5 acre tract requirement for a fr multi-family development has been reduced to 1 acre. Each of the three housing authority properties is less than 5 acres. The Round Rock Housing Authority will take the lead to outreach to residents and tenants of public housing and to other families assisted by public housing agencies, for the purposes of ensuring that the ADDI funds are used to provide down payment assistance for such residents, tenants, and families. Families receiving ADDI funds would take classes related to all aspects of homeownership. Housing counseling would be mandatory homebuyers. City staff and Round Rock Housing Authority staff have received certification in teaching Homebuyer Education and Financial Fitness. These certification programs were administered by the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs (TDHCA) and NeighborWorks America. Specific Homeless Prevention Elements Homeless Strategy Though Round Rock has a very small visual homeless population, the loss of a job, a raise in rent, an eviction or domestic violence can easily lead to homelessness for many low income individuals and families. Accordingly, the City's high priority activities are concentrated on homeless prevention. Priority Homeless Needs With a focus on homeless prevention, the City and local service providers have identified the provision of direct assistance (e.g., food and clothing) as well as supportive services to help those potentially at risk of becoming homeless as the key priorities for homeless assistance and prevention over the five year period. Homelessness is a regional issue and is best addressed countywide through the efforts of both Williamson and Travis Counties and local jurisdictions. Since Round Rock's emergency shelters only provide temporary facilities for displaced women and children, the City will work with area providers to address its share of the homeless need through facilities and services provided at the regional level. Homeless Assistance Goals A primary goal to address the issue of homelessness and homeless prevention is to encourage a range of supportive services to help those at risk of becoming homeless and those who are without shelter. The City will continue work with service providers to address its goal and the local needs of the homeless. Homeless Assistance and Prevention Homeless Assistance Fourth Program Year Action Plan 14 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction The City will work with service agencies to provide emergency shelters, transitional housing, and other support services that address the City's fair share of homeless need at the regional level. Homeless Services In order to help those who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless, the City will assist with the provision of supportive services which may include free food and clothing, counseling, emergency housing assistance, referral, or temporary shelter. Job Training Program To provide better economic opportunities to target income residents, the City will assist with the provision of job training and workforce development services by improving communication within the community. Housing Choice Voucher Homeownership The Housing Choice (Section 8) Voucher Rental Assistance Program provides vouchers to very low and extremely low income households that are in need of housing and are potentially at risk of becoming homeless or have special needs. The City will provide down payment assistance and homeownership counseling to participants in the Round Rock Housing Authority (RRHA) voucher homeownership program.

In addition, the City's strategy is to provide supportive services for target income residents, such as childcare services. Planned economic development and anti-poverty programs include: • Development of a One-Stop Center • Job Training services • Commercial rehabilitation • Childcare center and services • Homeless services Fourth Program Year Action Plan 16 Version 2.0 Jurisdiction Non-homeless Special Needs (91.220 (c) and (e)) Priority housing and supportive service needs of persons who are not homeless but require supportive housing (i.e., elderly, frail elderly, persons with disabilities (mental physical, developmental) persons with alcohol or other drug addiction persons with HIV/AIDS and their families, and public housing residents are available through a limited amount of resources provided through Bluebonnet Trails MHMR, Trinity Care Nursing Home, Round Rock Housing Authority, Williamson-Burnet Counties Opportunities, and the Williamson County Health District. Housing Opportunities for People with AIDS Round Rock does not receive HOPWA funding. Any housing in this area for persons with HIV/AIDS is funded privately or assisted through the Interfaith Care Alliance. Specific HOPWA Objectives Round Rock will continue dialogs with the Interfaith Care Alliance and other local agencies who deal directly with housing issues for this target population and assist when possible with housing needs with its Home Repair Program. Other Narrative Exception Grantee Status The CDBG program requires that each CDBG funded activity must either principally benefit low- and moderate-income persons, aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight, or meet a community development need having a particular urgency because existing conditions pose a serious and immediate threat to the health or welfare of the community and other financial resources are not available to meet that need. With respect to activities that principally benefit low- and moderate- income persons, at least 51 percent of the activity's beneficiaries must be low and moderate income. However, in some communities, such as Round Rock, there are none or very few areas in which 51 percent of the residents are low and moderate income. For these grantees, the CDBG law authorizes an exception criterion in order for such grantees to be able to undertake area benefit activities. For Round Rock, the low-moderate income threshold for any area benefit activity is 47.4%. Section 105(c)(2)(A)(ii) at 24 CFR 570.208(a)(1)(H), identifies the methodology to calculate a grantee's "exception" threshold.

I further understand that state and local governments are primarily responsible for the care of these individuals, and that ESG funds are not to be used to assist such persons in place of state and local resources. 13. HUD's standards for participation in a local Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) and the collection and reporting of client-level information. I further certify that the submission of a completed and approved Consolidated Plan with its certifications, which act as the application for an Emergency Shelter Grant, is authorized under state and/or local law, and that the local government possesses legal authority to carry out grant activities in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations of the U.

Please add your thoughts or comments below. • The Williamson Crisis center needs grants to continue to meet the needs of battered women and their children as well as to expand their services and outreach.There is also a need for public transportation to make getting around easier If you do not yet have a vehicle.There should also be more youn adult(25-40) events In the community as well as for children ages 2-16 • Why is it that monies are always taken from the programs such as Grants to help people,such as the one that could possibly be taken away that has given monies to the Williamson County Crisis Center(Hope Alliance). If your staff would visit this Facility and realize what all the Crisis Center does in order to help Women and Children of Domestic Violence and abuse, I think you would definitely reconsider where monies need to be spent and who to help. It is so hard for me to understand why people don't just automatically want to help In this area. Thousands of dollars are spent to hold an event, but yet to help women and children who are abused and left without homes, and sometimes walk away with only the clothes on their back, that no one thinks this Is Important, and funds will possibly be taken away. If everyone In RR would just donate$1 to the Crisis Center, based on the population here, that would help tremendously, but no one cares to campaign for this kind of help. You mentioned the word Domestic Violence and Abuse, and people tend to tum the opposite direction, unless they have a personal reason for wanting to help. People think they are going to be associated with the wrong kind of people, and they forget that those people doing the abusing are many times, the banker, the lawyer, city councilman, etc. Put the money where it Is really needed, not where it will just fatten the pocket book of the person who is already doing quite well financially. • Battered women and their children need more housing options when they leave the WCCC shelter. • I am taking this survey because there is a definite need to continue funding the Crisis Center. We have been receiving funding for three years and it's very needed. • Working directly with women and children from domestic violence or sexual assualt,there Is a definite need for more funding in these areas. • Round Rock (and Williamson County) has no shelters for homeless citizens, which is a desperate need for our community. It also is difficult for our low-moderate residents to afford housing, http://ds2.vanguardsw.com/survey/vl/dscript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 20 of 31 especially those who have had challenges such as homelessness and need to find starter housing. However, it Is also working families who need affordable housing in our community. The Round Rock shelter for survivors of domestic and sexual violence is a service that our community also benefits from supporting.This shelter, while serving our community as best it can, needs more space to serve those whose safety is Imminently at risk. • i thpoght of this area before yet we had to move back to canyon lake because we dldnt have the funds to get the right home ► The CDBG program has benefited the RR community in many ways. Transitional housing, for one, for adults and children have been and will be needed. It Is a shame that most of us of moderate (and low) income families have to struggle so much to make ends meet. I would hope that these types of subsidies or assistance or improvements were available to help those In need. • While a need for transitional housing exists, private/non-profit/charitable entitles should fulfill this need rather than our local government. Entitlement programs such as this lead to a dependency on government and an erosion of personal responsibility. • We need more affordable, safe, well-maintained housing for seniors. I wish the City of Round Rock would build more subsidized housing for seniors. Thanks for the survey. • I would like to see more work with groups like Habitat for Humanity. It gets local people involved in improving the community and is a smart way to help people Improve themselves. • I think ya'll have been doing a good job on all the historical aspects and i would like to see more with the library and clinics which i know has already been started and that should be continued also more running and/or bicycling trails.Thank you for all that good work. • Need more"family"events throughout the year(like the Christmas event) • N/A • N/A • "if you build it,they will come!" Based on this, we need to look at the curent quality of life in R. R. and the standards we want upheld, and then decide which type of housing suits this criteria. As the aging population Increases, housing for Seniors will be In demand, as will the accompanying medical suppliers, from supplies to human resources. This is a nitche that R.R. doesn't have filled, and a potential source for revenue. • Thanks for doing this survey • Hope this helps. • I always think there Is room for Improvment to any community • If we add too much low income support, our crime levels will definitely Increase. We need to Improve the amenitites that the city has to offer to maintain our city's level of safety. • I don't know much about this program other than what you stated above. • I feel we need more activities for our middle school to high school age children. • Are we going to be advised of the things the money is spent on before It is spent? • You will not be able to accurately use these survey results due to the fact that participants are forced to answer qustlons that do not apply In order for their survey to be counted. • We certainly can could use some hehp in updating our park area such as newer playscape and rides for the children. Also, some micro paving done years ago needs patching or re-paving especially While Oak Loop and Cedar Bend. • I live in a wonderful neighborhood but would Illke to see more outdoor parks that don't cost a bundle to go to. • The entrance ramp to I35 between hwy 79 to 3406 needs to be extended the full length (similar to entrance ramp between McNeil and 620) • na • I would like to see the city declare some worn out rental houses'unfit for humans' and require the owner to fix them. I don't want any of my neighbors to be displaced but I also don't them to be hurt when a house fails down. The houses are on Trailways and Shady Loop off Pecan Avenue between Veterans Park and Georgetown Rd In old downtown. The owner should not rent any of the vacant houses until they are made safe. • "Community" developoment funds, seem to me to be most approprtatly used for things the whoe citizenry benefits from: new sidewalks and curbs in a specific neighborhood rather than build structures for people to live in; I believe individual capatallsm should rule that roost. • I pay most of the taxes and get none of the benefits. • My family would like to see more hike and bike trails that inter-connect with parks and neighborhoods. • I really don't know answers to 4 &S http://ds2.vanguardsw.com/survey/vl/dscript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 21 of 31 • I'm particularly interested in programs/developement specifically for young families. • Thanks! • This probably does not fall under CGBG, but RR needs to be cleaned up - along the roadways especially. TRASH everywhere. Tacky, tacky, tacky! We need more pride In the appearance of the City. And, don't say it's the county's responsibility. • Let's improve/add parks, widen roads, provide more bvike paths and activity centers for youth and adults. If you really want a solution to help the poor, then maybe we should invest In affordable daycare centers and afterschool care so that the parents can go out there and work hard or get an education to get a better job and help themselves get out of their situation. • Sam Bass Road need to be cleaned up and widened. Traffic is unerasonable now. It can take 30 minutes to travel less then 5 miles during rush hour. • Reducing real estate property taxes so that It is fair to all. Why do other houses In our subdivision have lowetr property taxes than others while their houses are larger and more valuable. This needs to be balanced out. • Bus - public transportation service • The downtown and surrounding streets and neighborhoods need attention. These areas have been neglected as to: streets, sidewalks, walk trails, and bike routes, drainage, and traffic flow. Please assign funds to remedy problems in this often neglected area of Round Rock. These areas are the oldest yet the least servicedl ]esus Franco • Prayfully, these funds will be used according to the needs of the community...I understand at a local high school more than 60% of the students have babies and the daycare solution Is very weak...apparently it is too late for prevention at this point—what type of plan of action is in place for these teens who are now young, Inexperience parents. • In my opinion we all need to work together to imrove what God made for us. Keep it clean and able to help all that need be. • It would be a great help for the community. • Nonel • Round Rock needs beautification and added amenities for the IH 35 Corridor. It Is not mainained and very much an eye sore. In addition, I would like to see more centralized parks and family type outings to bring the community together. I think RRPD is doing a good job. Many folks have asked for more routine law enforcement type community efforts to meet the officers in their sector, more face to face public relations. Thanks, • The City of Round Rock Is very well run and I appreciate living here for the last 14 years. • I think these funds should be used for affordable housing and repairing housing, not on street, Infrastructure, or city parks. Housing is more critical then parks-and the streets/sidewalks can be handled via current tax dollars. • I believe Round Rock has been generous enough to the lower income population. Although I think there have been some wonderful things done, I think there's a point where you start to attract the wrong element. For ex, I saw a man begging on the NE side of IH35 &Louis Henna on Saturday morning. This Is something I have never seen nor want to see in Round Rock. If we continue catering to the low income population as seems to be the trend, we'll end up like E. Rundberg In Austin. Although I am all about helping the poor, I think there have to be boundaries. • I support the Baptist Children's Home for a place for both adults and children at risk. I think private and faith based entities do a better job of caring for homeless and those in need. Therefore, I prefer funds from government entities be used for Infrastructure, public entities like libraries, and the promotion of correct housing needs if those are unmet. • This survey is an excellent idea. • My primary concern is the safety, appearance and maintenance of my neighborhood and surrounding areas, i.e. road conditions, lawn maintenance, cleanliness, etc. Bradford Park via High Country Is a major thoroughfare for high volume traffic to/from Gattis School/45 Toll Rd and the roads and landscaping Is in need of repair from the traffic. • On question 12. We do not qualify from year 2006, but would In 2007 and 2008. • Nothing has ever come about for the MURDER that took place in my development) • I think the money would be best spent upgrading existing LMI housing. I do not believe creating more low income housing would bring positive outcomes for Round Rock. It is my opinion that low income housing will always end up in worse condition than it was the day before. • we already have problems with not enough schools in the area, that is why there is currently some http://ds2.vanguardsw.com/survey/vl/dscript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 22 of 31 construction In the Turtle Creek area, and some re-drawing of school limits. If we start adding apartments to the area, where are those kids going to attend school? larger classrooms means less time the teacher spends with the children. Round Rock has a very good school district precisely because we are not overcrowded in the classrooms, let's not change that. And we could use a community park in the double creek area. Thank you for your service. • Please limit the amount of section 8 housing In our community. My family chose Round Rock over surrounding areas for the low crime rate, schools, and overall "small town"atmosphere. • To me Round Rock Is a great middle Midddle Class and upper Middle Class community. Do not bring In no-income and low-income folks -- and their crime. I will leave Round Rock, and leave it to those folks. No offense Intended, but I do not have to live with dopeheads and criminals--very unhealthy for them If they should break Into my house. • Taxes dollars should be used to help those that are less fortunate. When precelved govermant waste occurs, that is when tax payers get discouraged. • Development of more public housing, especially for seniors,should be a priority. • I'm somewhat upset at the appearance of the tolle roads, i.e.,IH 45, etc. It has ruined the look, has become increasingly heavy with traffic. It appears it Is harder to get around than before. I am pleased that the crossover between Wal-Mart and Target is being re-installed. Whoever thinks up these "ways"to Improve apparently do not live here. You really need to re-open or facilitate the IH35 ramps that were closed before. It is my understanding that a perfectly good bridge at Hester's Crossing will be removed to make"Improvements" for traffic...that remains to be seen. • We need speed bumps or a method to control the amount of traffic and their speed. Additionally, we need protection rails on the properties close to the hill as some of the vehicles have lost control and hit their properties • Although I live here and do not work here, It is only because I am retired, and not because I work somewhere else. You didn't allow for this distinction, and it may not really matter to you for your purposes. I don't want R.R. to become a slum area, so feel the need to encourage all levels of incomed people to live here. To do this , we have to have available higher end housing,too. To cater only to the indigent and poor will only attract more of them here, and the wealthier people will move away. Also, Seniors who are alone need comfortable, affordable housing in a safe area,similar to Stonehaven In Georgetown. The apartments in Round Rocks assisted rent area are too little, with living rooms little more than B'wlde and 8' long. Use common sense when designing housing, and realize that if you would feel clostrophobic living in such tiny apts., others certainly would,too. Those In Stonehaven are just right. • no • I don't think we need to cater to low Income housing. Let Austin do It. I would like to see us take a stand and maintain a medium to high Income standard for greater Round Rock. No need to go asking for trouble when we do not have to. • Don't think Round Rock needs any more apartment complexes • The more lower Income homes//housing you bring, you'll find more crime will occur and you'll have to beef up our police. I want our county and city to continue to be one of the safest in the country&state. • There are many homes In many neighborhoods that have trash coming out of the garages. Too many cars in driveways and even yards. Too many cars In streets. Each yard should have to have grass and some sort of neatness. • I work In the LIHTC Property Management industry. Round Rock Is overbuilt with affordable multi- family housing and does not need additional units. • Thanks for caring enough to ask our opinion. Round Rock Is a pretty nice place to live, but I think it has a reputation of having too many lower value home subdivisions. I've heard it referred to as "Bubbaville" which doesn't do much to promote the values within the city. • We need to emply the "work for welfare" concept that greatly reduced welfare rolls in New York City and provided people with usable skills to then apply for jobs. I've worked in service agencies (food banks, etc.) for 7 years here and noted that those tend to make younger families and people dependent on them rather that help them get out of their dependent lifestyles. • Love the city...keep It special • Round Rock has too much mixed use properties near each other. Round Rock should focus on http://ds2.vanguaTdsw.com/survey/vl/dscript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 23 of 31 more high end development. Adding more appartment complexes puts more demand on city services and schools -round rock should focus on middle Income and above development and attractive industries that Improve the quality of life for the community • 7 people cannot comfortably live on $70,000 a year. Who pays for daycare, food clothing and education for their children at that rate? • An explanation of"transitional housing" might have enabled me to Offer a meaningful response. As It is, I chose "no" because I'm not famIllary with the term. • I am concerned about possible overbuilding addordable housing, from what I understand occupancy rates are well below the goals that have been set. I recommend using the funds for landscaping roadsides and improving the appearance of ROund rock to attract higher end tax paying homeowners. .average home prices are declining to much/ • Making Round Rock a well run community is most important, along with making it clean (like garbage on streets - lots etc) being removed and planting trees and improving parks and landscaping are Important. A beautiful community attracts business. Additionally helping the young and children are critical to our future. • All of these are "good things" but to me housing for seniors, moderate or low income, is of the utmost importance- not mentioned in your survey was transportation for those without means. • "community development should be for the benefit of the community. Not individuals who are down on their luck.There are plenty of social programs out there for that. Personal responsibilitylI • I feel that making Round Rock affordable for low-moderate Income families Is contributing to the Increase in crime and juvenile delinquency that I am seeing. I also feel the monies should help facilitate in Improving our community. Possibly by adding a "free to join/go" facility for our youth to go to help "sharpen" their skills(music, art, athletic ability, ect.), help increase their personal feelings of self worth, potential, and abl(ties to make a brighter future for themselves. They need a safe place to go and Interact with "peers" In a positive way. Too many families are struggling to make ends meet, that the"family unit"Is not top priority. I do understand that many families have to work long hours or more than one job to make ends meet. I feel this is the reason why our youth is getting into trouble, with gangs, drugs, etc. They just want the feeling of"belonging" and "aceptance". Gangs provide this when famllles are too busy trying to put food on the table, and keeping a roof over their head. The same could be said about drugs. The youth form their own "group" that have a common intrest...drugs, and to be "accepted" or"belong", one must use. I am aware of the Clay Madison center and the YMCA, however my understanding Is there Is a fee to join,and many families, no matter how small the fee,just simply cannot afford It or the location Is not convienent. A free community center would also put a parents mind at ease, knowing their child is spending their time In a positive way, and not out and about getting Into trouble. This center could benlfIt parents as well by offering classes that appeal to them,such as learning English, cooking healthier(in hopes to decrease the obesity problem In our youth), and just plain "family time" activitles for parents and children to get together and interact. Bottom line, I would like to see Round Rock become more of a "community" and "family-unit", to put family values and morals as a priority again, no matter what the income level Is. -3.M. • I am not altogether sure about needs for transitional housing, nor for some of the programs in Q. #3. Some of htese things may be covered with state or federal monies. • Senior citizens transportation • Building low Income housing will decreases the values of the homes within this area and Increase the crime rate within these areas. Lake Forest has seen an Increase in crime due to the affordable housing on Louis Henna. Please do not build anymore affordable housing in our city. • Senior citizen transportation • Better tree care for elderly oaks. We don't need more high density housing better developed (hike& bike) type parks. • I love my apt and neighborhood except the traffic. I love RR and never need to travel any where else. We need regular transportation for the people that don't have wheels. More lights for the streets It's too dark. • Apts. could be larger and less expensive • Apts. could be a little larger. • I work in Round Rock I would love to live here as well however there is no affordable housing for me and my family we are descent people trying to make a living as well as providing for the future http://ds2.vanguardSW.Com/survey/vl/dscript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 24 of 31 of our children. Cudos to whom ever put this survey together to care for the people and their Input In this community. thank you. • Why does Round Rock not have any public transportation?A city of this size seems to me should have some sort of public transportaion. I know it would certainley help out with the traffic and the senior population In the city that don't have cars. Please consider this Item In your survey. PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION I I I I I I I I III It[III I • Let Austin focus on the homeless and affordable housing. We moved to Round Rock to move up scale, not to bring everything down to the lowest common denominator. • Need speed bumps along Bradford Park Drive, speed limit is 30mph however most cars exceed the limit. Many children, including my own, play near this road. • I had a problem with queston number a either or. The problem with my house may very well be unfixable due to soil conditions. • Most of these programs are tax payer rip-offs/take from the responsible and productive, and distribute to the non-productive and irresponsible/many who administer these programs are taking care of themselves and their agenda-Not the hard working, TRUE taxpayers • I really don't know what transitional housing is except for what the TBCH offers. I would hate to see our city set up neighborhoods for homeless funded by tax dollars. This type of set up is typically a handout and Is never managed properly. What tends to happen is you end up with large amounts of people living in one area that are versed In milking the welfare system. I would rather see tax dollars go to trade education for these individuals with the pretext that as long as you are attended classes, getting your kids to school on time and keeping your yard/home in repair, we'll pay for your education and foodstamps. This is for older teens, too. If we provide education/trade/housing for them, then they need to do their part. Children 17 and under are helped when their parents are held accountable, If their parents are not willing to be responsible and take care of them properly, then the foster care system typically steps in anyway and that Is definitely funded by the State of Texas I.e. our tax dollars. • We need to help take care of our seniors to keep them healthy and Independent. Given a younger population, the seniors of Round Rock are underserved in various areas. • We need to enhance our school curriculum to Insure our future stays Intact. • What Is really needed in Round ROck is more townhome and Condo communities. • From past personal experience, more Is needed to help moderate Income families who fall on hard times (lose a job and can't replace it soon enough to cover housing and food). Social services are available when you get to the point of losing your tar--what is available to help keep you from getting that far down?These people are totally left out from any kind of assistance, yet before they fell on hard times were most definitely paying the taxes that support those who do qualify for temporary or long-term assistance. • none • Public Transportation is a critical need in Round Rock. Not evereybody has a car or wants to drive their car everyday. If Round Rock had a transit system or linked with CapMetro It would be a great service to many, many people who have no means of transportation and a service to those who desire to protect their environment by using mass transit as opposed to Individual transportation. Housing for those in lower income status Is critical. Round Rock has enough high end housing. • DPA-very good program to develop prosperous community. • We have lived In Round Rock for 21 years and have witnessed many changes. We need to focus our attention on meeting the needs of our existing population and businesses before expanding the business base any further. We have homelessness, hungry children, BIG drug problems, even some gang activity.The very character of the community has changed so much. We certainly have some housekeeping to attend to. • This is a severely underemployed area of the country lots of denial but on the edge of crisis financially for many of us who were downsized many times. All is not what It seems when you dig Into earnings, savings, and spending. Very out of balanced picture. If you care offer services even In the areas that seem to need nothing, pride Is the reason people have not sought you out. • The city needs to put curbs throughout the subdivision to prevent the repeated vandalism of the lawns and sprinker system. The city needs to rill the entry lake...long overdue. • Please use block grants for the needy and seniors who today are facing huge Increases in expenses that one could not have anitcipated. We like when service workers can afford to live in our neighborhoods and everyone works together to build a strong community. All for one-one for all. • These questions are worded in such a way that It is difficult to know what Is being asked. I have no Idea what"transitional housing" is, so it's hard to know if Round Rock needs It. What defines a http://ds2.vanguardsw.COM/survey/vl/dscript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 25 of 31 "crime Issue"for a neighborhood? We deal with teenage vandalism a lot In our neighborhood, but I have no idea If that means we have"crime issues". • I would rather see NO low Income/affordable housing built in Round Rock. • Limited government and free market capitalism are the best approach. • Help those who most need it. That Is what the money should be used for. • Is It possible to put contact information about Community Development grants in the water bill letter? I stumbled upon the CD grant while looking at the RR website. Downloaded the form, but haven't put together the info. yet. • With the rise in cost of living, many working people are finding that they are not able to meet their expenses and mortgages. • Local crime is a big concern for use, we have a house down the street that has a lot of shady people visiting and have a few crimes that involved vanalizm. would like to see more local patrol activity In the neighborhoods at night. • This city needs connected parkland. I can't walk or jog near my house without almost getting hit by a car every time. • The best use of funds for poor children Is to Invest in their education, social development then schools will be better and wealthier subdivisions won't shun their participation In same schools. Perhaps a pilot preschool program for 2-5 yr olds who otherwise would not be able to afford It? Or an afterschool program for older kids to help get homework done and teach them fun skills (archery, horseback, etiquette, how to study, etc.) Just some ideas. If we can nurture their brains at an earlier age than kindergarten, we can reap the benefits of the remaining 12 years of school for each with more personal success, I would hope. • More jobs in Round Rock • Round Rock does not need additonal low income housing. Our schools and our community is already taxed by the burden of providing school, medical services and other government services to illegal immigrants. The apartments being built are taxing our schools, parks and roadways. Smart growth Is required. • Sub Division needs to be policed better. Cars parked on sidewalks, dogs and cats running free and messing up our yards. Trucks parked for days on streets ect. • The Round Rock Area Serving Center could benefit from this funding as it services 5 zip codes. • I think more needs to be put Into parks and recreation to allow the low income residents' families access. Even though I do not fall Into that group, I find It expensive for my family to utilize these services. • Round Rock is already saturated with apartments. Vehicle traffic is at a stand-still. We must Improve the quality and quanity of roads before we over build the area with more apartmentsl • we in the southcreek subdivision are In need of street repairs they are very bumpy etc. Iwe do not need any more low income housing in this area. • It would be great if the subdivisions were connected by sidewalks. Especially along rte. 3406. We could also use a sidewalk (because there's no shoulder on the road) to walk to the local restaurant and convenience stores. As It is, we're close to several stores and restaurants, but it's too dangerous for even an adult to walk or bike there. Plus, there's a railroad track that crosses 3406 and no way to get past It without walking on the tracks in a deserted area. • If you want to develop the community use this money to encourage people to take ownership in the community. A free lunch does not develop ownership. Nothing Is free. Give something but get something in return. It may be "grant" money but it doesn't matter if it Federal, State, County or City its still someone else's tax dollars. • Please consider adding green areas that can be accessed and USED by families with children. Many current green areas are not accessable to low Income housing families. • Side-walk repair and/or installation required. Uneven sidewalks making It unsafe for families to walk down sidewalk. Some streets have no sidewalks (Sunrise Rd) • I seriously think the money should go to Code enforcement. If we keep up how our town looks, we will also attract more and more businesses, therefor leading of more jobs for our community and less need for government assitance for the residents. • we love round rock and the progress It has made since we've moved herel • Downpayment assistance, home repair, rehab loans,low income apartments &affordable housing are all vital to the diversity&improvemnt of the community.Rlght now, we need to focus on these things most. • More low income places for seniors to live • Please help funding for low Income houses • I do not know enough about these type problems to offer any comments http://ds2.vanguardsw.conVsurvey/vl/dscript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 26 of 31 • Round Rock needs Public Transportation. • I want RR to have Capital Metro come in the City so I can ride the bus, van pool for$25 per month, or train to work. Gas Is too expensive driving back and forward to Austin. • There was no inclusion of public transportation which I believe is critical to the current population of RR and the expected Increase over the next few decades. With the huge Influx of new residents and the additional vehicles that Involves, public transportation should be a major consideration for this community. That, coupled with the ever increasing cost of gas and aging of us "baby boomers", should be driving factors in moving forward on this Issue as expediclously as possible. • Round Rock Is seriously lacking public transportalon. We have a number of senior citizens and people with disabilities that need this service. We also need to come together as a community to provide more recreational and job opportunities for people with disabl!lities. The public school system spends a great deal of resources to prepare these young adults for a transition Into the community only to find out that there Is very little for this population. • In desperate need of reliable, ample TRANSPORTATION In Round Rock. For alllill!!!!!!! • I believe we should put this money toward helping those who are trying to help themselves. There are some people that give poor people a bad name by taking advantage of the generoislty of others, including civil authorities. I hope you will have an appropriate process to weed out these people who think they deserve to receive everything free. There should be a requirement to work and support themselves and their families, unless they are disabled in some way that prevents the person from doing this. The other Items that I checked to use this money are items that benefit the whole community. I hope you have a balanced committee that will make these decisions for you. • I think we need a recycling program. I do not think we should have to pay additional to recycle and I have my doubts the materials you put out and pay to recycle are actually being recycled. • Our city and dept. heads have done a good job for our tax dollars palded.THANKS D.M. • Great survey design, overall. Please review #4 and #5 as an option for I don't know Is what I would have selected in both cases since I do not know. Thanks for your time. • this neighborhood Is not as nice as It once was due to the low income housing that 1s now In the area. • Round Rock is a pleasant place to live. One of the reasons is that we do not encourage panhandling and vangrants. • LOWER MY TAXES NOW • I would like to have a mandatory home owners assoc. In our neighborhood to ensure the quality and cleanliness of our community. I would be willing to pay 50-100 dues if necessary to get our neighborhood clean. • Stop trying to help everyone; this Is life, it is not fair, you have to work for what you want! • Habitat For Humanity should be part of your program. The monies can be used to acquire land and help fund homes for families that live In Round Rock. I was disappointed that HFH did not receive any monies last year when you had more than $200k that was not even spent in your budget. These are the types of people and programs that truly make a difference. It is a hand up, not a hand out.Thanks. • Public facilities and Improvements (libraries, clinics, etc.) Libraries are for the citizens.......don't know what"clinics"you mean. 2. Do you work In Round Rock? Yes or No. Neither, we're retired. • We are becoming more like Pflugerv!Ile, Manor, and East Austin. Standards are going down rather than up.This Is turning our schools Into a war zone. Gangs are taking hold at both Stony Point and Round Rock High. We've got to turn this around or people like me will join the flight to Cedar Park or elsewhere. • please no more low income housing in this area !!I srtreets and streetlights are In need of repair In this subdivision • Please spray for mosquitos. It is insane the amount of them in this town, and nothing Is done by the city. I've encountered fewer In Lousislana at my in-laws than in my own back yard in Round Rock. • I would like to see Round Rock not cater to low income housing. I'd rether like it to be a mid to high end comunity. Let Austin have the trash and low Income seems they don't want roads nor progress of late. • Round Rock has lots of community resources that go to waste because we go to the ends of the earth to get something under our noses. A good example--the school system brings In authors while we sit on a gold mine of literary talent. Why not do something that benefits local authors and our own students? Put aside grants to purchase locally written books that are appropriate for http://ds2.vanguardsw.com/survey/Vl/dscript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 27 of 31 the classroom? It is Inspirational for a child to say "Someone in my community wroter this. Someone In my community publishes with Random House. I can too." • I think Round Rock has plenty of apartments. Round Rock needs social services to help needy clients navigate the difficult Issues with getting government assistance. • Round Rock needs less minimum wage retail jobs, and more jobs that manufacture actual products. Also, too many new homes being built, thus appreciate on existing homes is slow. Too much competition to sell a home In Round Rock with all the new developments. Homeowners are taking a hit on their investment in the home. • I feel we may have too many apartment complexes. I'm also concerned about the number of strip malls going up and how many are not filled with businesses • A few of these items do not have sufficient Information. For Instance, what are you considering 'transitional housing mentioned In questions 4 &5T In question 3, Is this the only resource for funding for these Items? • I understand the concern that low Income housing may bring down property values, but those families in need of affordable housing do spend here in RR and contribute to our tax base. Providing for the needy is just the right thing to do. • Neighborhood code reinforcement is needed in South Creek, such as, yard and trash. Thanksl • We don't need an Influx of poor and folks that live off the tit of government. As RR grows, more of our freedoms dwindle and the more we are turning Into a big government, big city with all the associated problems.Thanks Mayor and City Council. Callfomication Is a big problem too. Let's use the money for a campaign called "Go home and tell everyone Round Rock sucks." • Redesign/modify the intersection of AW Grimes &Logan. Southbound Grimes traffic does not see southbound vehicles exiting Logan until It's too late. Try to pull out of Logan, headed South when Grimes traffic in zooming by. Getting broadsided at 45mph, death comes swiftly. Dennis Koch - kochkamp*austl n.rr.com • I THINK CITY MONIES SHOULD BE USED FOR THE UPKEEP OF ROADS, SCHOOLS AND SERVICES AND THATS ALL • We do not need any nore low income housing in Round Rock. Nor do we need any more apartments or other forms of multi-family housing. Please build more parks and trails. • Too much traffic. • I would like to see areas that need Improvements such as roads and entryways to subdivisions Improved. • I notice a lot of Individuals in my neighborhood who could use help in repairs to their homes. I believe as a community, we should make available help for those who need and want to make their homes safer and more livable. • I believe that Round Rock has adequate housing to supply for the needs of those within our city limits. Our neighbors to the south and north provide needed housing as well and in looking at the whole area I feel there Is enough at each level for this time. • I think we need more police patrols in our neighborhood. We pay a great deal of taxes to live in this area and I feel the police don't come out because "this Isn't a problem area". In other words, the squeeky wheel gets the attention. Since we don't have that many problems the police aren't out that much. We have kids destroying stuff and driving on the lawn borders an forest creek drive all the time. If the police were out here more often, they would have a better chance of stopping this disturbance. We also have cars exceeding the speed limit all the time on forest creek drive. Please pass this on to the RR police. It costs us about$25,000 a year to repair the lawn and the broken sprinkler heads. Thanksl • I would like to have the Enclave water&sewer utilities to be supplied by the City of Round Rock. • We would love to see more trails and paths to hike, walk, etc. Also -I would love It if we could get a couple of dog parks, where the dogs can run, legally, free to play with other dogs. • 2006 was the first year we are just squeeking by with above family Income. All the previous years we were well below, and due to medical reasons I had to use the food bank. I feel we need more of these and better ways of letting the public know about the clothes closet the schools have set up. Also we need more public transportation to these. The carts bus should pick up the lower Income families from the schools twice a week to transport them to the facilities. Usually they don't have a second car to take them. • This does not apply to me, we are out of the bracket, sorry I forwarded the email to my friends. • None • With RR growing the cost of living for single parents are outrageous if there were more programs assisting families to become independent such as programs preparing them to become homeowners which Includes budeting, tax advantages, a walk through http://ds2.vanguardsw.com/survey/v 1/dscript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 28 of 31 of the whole mortage process. • low income housing needs to be an easy process for those who could use It. programs that are available to help in assisting young adults and teen moms should be easy to find upon request. • I live In the Southeast quadrant of the city and feel there are plenty of apartments on this side of town • I would like to see sidewalk and street repair on Cooke off Main Street. When it rains this street floods quickly and there's little room to walk around the big puddles and this street leads to the school bus stop. I have an elementary student who Is effected by this area which is overdue for much needed repair. • I may qualify, but I don't need asistance, and I don't want people who really don't need it applying. The annual Income should be a lot lower to receive assistance for people who own their own homes outright and have no debts. This assistance should be For low income only. • NONE • If there was more low Income housing I would not be at the Children's Baptist home and we need more Free clinics for dental and other things to. and we need to be able to have more at the childrens Baptist home. more room than all for cause the childrens baptist home is great place. • Need more services for non English specking families • I just moved to Williamson County about a yr ago. I am not familiar with transitional housing for adults or children in this area. my husband and I would not qualify for CDBG funds but my son and grandson would. • youth program with affordable price in neighborhood. • some of this money should be used to better our children &teenagers from drugs and gang or violent activities. that to it should also be used for minority families &low Income housings. • Think Round Rock is a very good place to live. • Lets be leaders In a pedestrian friendly downtown &shopping centers - maintain a city where we can be proud to live and grow old in. • I work In substance abuse prevention &education through schools&other. See great great need for halway houses and other transitional living need. Also of course for good and affordable mental health treatment assistance. • Transitional Housing is a need here, we operate this service In Travis Co. &find people calling from this area to request service transportation also a large nee. Our caregivers for senios have difficulty wigh having reliable transportation.This reduces the number in workforce available to help seniors. • I am CEO of the Wmson. Cnty Shelter for women &children.

Providing training and support for people to make positive changes In their lives so they can support themselves and teach their family members (children) how to support themselves--break the cycle so to speak. • I do love living in Round Rock very much. But people that are just like me have to learn to live with the grace of GOD each day. It would be great for people to be able to live in a home instead of an apartment for their children to grow up secure. But funds are not there for some this families at this time. Looking for the city to be able to work with private owner In renting out private property at a lower cost to low income families (plus those that a good citizens of this city will stay to make this city the best all around). I have faith this will come in the future to everyone. Thank you for time and work you have done for us. • The cost of living, especially housing is at a rate that leaves some of our families without affordable housing. We have almost no properties available and very long waiting lists for the few we have. While Habit for Humanity is a fantastic program- It Is extremely Ilmlted In the number of families it can serve. In addition, housing repairs for those less fortunate and/or the elderly also go undone, leading to even bigger costs of repair, ruin and the decline of neighborhoods. We have done a great job advocating for those who have more-not those who have less. Our emphasis on sports, fitness, families, business, retail, health care-these are all wonderful gifts for our community. I would like to see us pour these same efforts Into affordable housing, accessable transportation, and services for those less fortunate, struggling citizens of our community.

City of RR has not focused on traffic congestions on Gattis School Road. It is needed BADly. The Gattis School road and also to Clay Madsen needs to be widened to have center lane. Beautify the city should be a top priority. Projection on resources ( like water and water quality ) should be a top priority. http://ds2.vanguardsw.com/Survey/vl/dsr-ript 4/10/2007 Vanguard Vista Page 30 of 31 • Question 11 should be worded more like "Do you feel we need new apartment housing and if so, what kind?"and than mark the categories that apply. • I think that the CDBG funds should continue to benefit the Round Rock Area Serving Center.

There are too many structures In need of paint&basic maintenance.
