SA-11-CA-360-OLG-JES-XR [Lead case] STATE OF TEXAS, et al., Defendants. DEFENDANTS’ REPLY TO MALC AND TLRTF’S RESPONSES REGARDING REMEDY FOR STATE HOUSE DISTRICT HD90 On February 23, 2019, the Court ordered Plaintiffs “to respond to Defendants’ advisory concerning the use of Plan H328 and notify the Court of any alternative proposals” by March 11, 2019. ECF No. 1619. On that date, TLRTF and MALC independently submitted their own proposed plans. ECF Nos. 1620, 1621. TLRTF resubmitted Plan H407, a proposed remedial plan that seeks to return HD90 to its configuration under Plan H283 and remove the Como neighborhood from HD90. But the Court has already considered and rejected Plan H407. ECF No. 1600. The Shaw violations found by the Court “rest on changes made to HD90 after Como was moved back into HD90.” Perez v. Abbott, 267 F. Supp. 3d 750, 794 (W.D. Tex. 2017); see also id. at 792 (finding racial considerations behind “changes made between Plan H328 and Plan H342”). Plan H407 is therefore inconsistent with the Court’s Case 5:11-cv-00360-OLG-JES-XR Document 1622 Filed 03/18/19 Page 2 of 8 instruction that any remedy in HD90 “must respect the legislative choices made in 2013, except to remedy the constitutional violations.” ECF No.

  • Hyde Park: an Early Suburban Development in Austin, Texas (1891- 1941)
    HYDE PARK: AN EARLY SUBURBAN DEVELOPMENT IN AUSTIN, TEXAS (1891- 1941) Hyde Park, one of the most desirable neighborhoods of modern Austin, is nearing the hundredth anniversary of its founding. The legacy of its settlement and growth remind us of the important role Hyde Park has played in the history of Austin; a role which can be better understood and evaluated following a discussion of the city's development. Austin has served as Texas' seat of government since shortly after the city's founding in 1838. The city was established as the result of an internal struggle among the leaders of the newly formed Republic of Texas, which gained independence from Mexico in 1836. Many believed Houston or some other established town should be selected as the capital of Texas. Intense competition and rivalry developed for that designation and the attendant financial and political opportunities it would provide. As a compromise, founding fathers decided that the creation of an entirely new community was the most appropriate solution. As president of the Republic, Mirabeau B. Lamer selected Waterloo, small dispersed settlement on the Colorado River, as the new capital of Texas. Edwin Waller surveyed the townsite, including a grandly sited capitol square atop a hill that terminated a broad thoroughfare (Congress Avenue) extending from the river. Named in honor of Stephen F. Austin, the town became reality as the first lots were sold on August 1, 1839. Despite the isolated location near the frontier, the designation fueled the new capital's growth and its population increased to 856 by 1840. Numerous government offices opened providing the foundation for the local economy.
