ZAPCO met Wednesday at 9:10 - here is the Agenda. Results of the meeting are:
Items 3, 4, 5, were sign requests and were all approved. All of the annexation items on item 6 were approved except North Brooks Hollow - ZAPCO recommended it not be annexed. There will be public hearings on all of these areas on two more occasions.
I expect the rest of the agenda items were approved - I was unable to attend until the end of the meeting - I will update this if I get different information.
Here is this weeks police report - enjoy!
CBC will meet in regular session on Thursday, May 12. Here is that agenda!
From Steve Jones:
One issue not discussed on annexation is timing. Because of property tax considerations it is typical for unilateral annexations to take effect on January 1 of the following year. Staff recommends that we follow that convention here. This will also allow time to consider the appropriate zoning for newly annexed areas.
The Lakeway Regional Medical Center has hired David J. Kreye as their new Chief Executive Officer.
Joe Lenseigne, of the Drug Enforcement Administration, had the following to say about the Drug Take-Back operation: “On behalf of DEA, the DEA Austin Office, and the DEA Austin TDS group, thank you for your interest and efforts with the second National Prescription Drug Take-Back Initiative. Due to your tireless efforts and participation, the take-back program was once again a success. With 13 sites participating, we were able to safely collect, and remove from homes, over 1600 pounds of unused, unwanted, and expired medications. This program would not have been successful without your participation and motivated efforts. Again, we all thank you and look forward to working together again on the next Take-Back day which I hear may occur in September-we will keep you all posted.” The DEA said that we collected 108 pounds of medications in Lakeway.
We have information from the traffic recorders we installed on Lakeway Drive. We monitored vehicle speed at four locations for four days (Thursday through Sunday). The average speed at each address was as follows: 1209, avg. speed = 30.3 mph; 915, avg. speed = 32.9 mph; 608, avg. speed = 33.3 mph; and 408, avg. speed = 31.6 mph. These numbers are not alarming and do not indicate an appreciable speeding problem on Lakeway Drive. We plan to move the recorders to Rolling Green Drive next week and to Highlands Boulevard after that.
