Santa, Week Update, Police Gala

For those of you that are curious about Santa, I spotted him last night dancing with some residents - keep your eyes open, he lives here! Click here to see the video.

Thursday, Travis County Sheriffs Dept. was notified of a suspicious noise coming from a U.S. Post Office mailbox on Bee Caves Rd. After a full investigation, it was determined that the item in the mailbox was a cell phone being sent for repair. Thanks again to law enforcement for keeping us safe!

The Cavs are again on the march to a state title. they beat Cedar Park 21-20 in a nail biter Saturday night - GO CAVS!

Be patient, Pedernales Electric has contractors replacing 14 poles on Lakeway Drive - that along with the AT&T work is causing traffic delays. Hopefully they will be done soon!

From Steve Jones:

The Austin YMCA has completed a feasibility study for the Lakeway Area. The study showed adequate interest to justify a facility here and recommends that YMCA pursue one. Financial participation by the city would be problematic because a majority of the prospective members live outside the City. Here is the report.

In November, the Municipal Court utilized 93 hours of community service by court defendants. This has a value of $1,953 to the City. GREAT work!

Because of questions at the last Council meeting, more information was requested about the proposed fuel tanks the Crosswater Yacht Club is requesting. Here is that information. They estimate 1 fuel truck delivery a week during the high season.

From Julie Oakley (Finance):

FY 10 actual revenues over expenditures resulted in $216k more than projected. After all revenues and expenditures were accounted for the final surplus is $468k. The major difference is $57k additional sales tax and police department savings.

From Todd Radford (Police Chief):

We had a string of vehicle burglaries last weekend in the Challenger area. There was also a garage door left open and some items were taken. Please lock your cars and secure your residences! Don't make it easy for crooks to take advantage of you!

The police have issued pagers to all officers and dispatchers to increase departmental communication and to have an avenue to recall personnel in case of emergencies.

The Lakeway Police are presenting a Christmas Gala to benefit the Lakeway PD Memorial & Benevolent Foundation featuring dinner, drinks, dancing, a silent auction and casino. Please consider supporting our police force with your attendance and support! Here is a link to the brochure.
