A. SUMMARY OF THE CASE AND REQUESTED RELIEF 1. This case involves the interpretation of the Valid Petition Rights section of the Texas Zoning Enabling Act, Texas Local Government Code Section 211.006(d) (the “Valid Petition Rights Statute”). That statute requires a ¾ vote of a City Council to approve any change in zoning regulations that are protested by at least 20% of the landowners in the area. 1 The requisite 20% of the neighboring landowners have submitted valid petitions objecting to the approval of the proposed zoning regulation changes for the Grove at Shoal Creek Planned Unit Development (herein “Grove PUD”). That Grove PUD is proposed as a high-density mixed-use development on a 76 acre tract of land at 4205 Bull Creek Road in Austin, Texas, commonly called the “Bull Creek Tract.” 2.

  • ASH Brain Health System Redesign Communications Strategy Plan
    10/22/18 ASH Brain Health System Redesign Communications Strategy Plan, version 4.0 1 10/22/18 Executive Summary The Design Institute for Health, in collaboration with the Communications Subcommittee, has prepared a Communications Strategy Plan for the preplannning and planning phases of the ASH Brain Health System Redesign. The plan identifies seven communications objectives and two core audience segments: internal and external. The internal audience focuses on project leadership and their networks. The external audience segment prioritizes five groups for these early phases: public officials, law enforcement, professional organizations and associations, mental health justice system, and media. Three core communications strategies are idenitifed to reach the audiences and meet the objectives using modern methodologies. A digital toolbox will serve to align the internal audience. For the external audience, a set of outreach opportunities coupled with an online final report are designed to inform the five key audiences across the large service area. Next steps are to build and launch the components in November and December 2018. The plan includes the current version (4.0) of approved initial messages and FAQ’s which will continue to be updated. 2 10/22/18 Introduction One in five Texans – more than five million people – experience a mental health condition each year, requiring increasing investment by Texas to help to address these conditions and improve the lives of its citizens. As part of that response, the Texas Legislature invested $300 million during the last legislative session for improvements to the state’s psychiatric hospitals. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) contracted with Dell Medical School at the University of Texas at Austin (Dell Med) to lead a collaborative, $15.5 million preplanning and planning phases of redesigning the Austin State Hospital (ASH) that serves 38 counties for adults, 57 counties for adolescents, and 75 counties for children.
