Council, CBC

City Council met today to consider an Ordinance calling a bond election to finance the Lake Travis Community Library's building located on Lohmans Crossing. Here is the agenda.

A presentation was made by P.K. Chatterjee, Treasurer, Lake Travis Community Library District Board. Here is the presentation. It was well received and the ordinance was passed. This is just a part of the process, next is an interlocal agreement with the City that will have to be agreed to and passed by the Council before any bonds are sold. This bond should have no affect on the City Bond Rating nor will any City funds be used to pay the bond - all monies will come from the Library District's tax receipts.

The City Building Commission met Thursday. Here is that agenda.
1. Variance was approved for a fence into the setback - this is a common issue and others have been previously approved.
2. Waver request was not approved and fence was required to look the same on both sides.
3. There was discussion on ordinance revisions and a preliminary document has been sent to board members for review.
4. The first height request 703 Mariner was denied. This would have had a major impact on neighbors views.
5. Height request at 1110 Challenger was approved.
6-12. Most finals were approved with the exception of two with silt fence issues.
All in all a good day!

There is a charity event at the Lakeway Inn benefiting the MD Anderson Cancer Center on April 2. Here is a brochure! Good cause!

The Warrant Round Up is still bringing in a lot of cash. Good job to all the Police and volunteers that have made it a success!
