Project
Description
Council Motion: Discussion and possible direction to the City of Georgetownʹs Transportation
Advisory Board (GTAB) to conduct an analysis and make a recommendation to the City Council
no later than June 24, 2014 ,regarding the Cityʹs potential future participation in State and
Regional Transportation Organizations including the benefits, conditions, and justification which
would prompt the Cityʹs participation in Project Connect, Lone Star Rail and any other relevant
State and Regional Transportation Organizations that the City should be involved with ‐‐ Steve
Fought, Councilmember, District 4
Amended Motion:
1. The City Manager to determine what time and effort staff have available to conduct this type
of study over the next year. If it is not in the Transportation Division, Planning Department,
Finance Department and/or City Manager’s Office work program, as outlined in the current
draft budget, can it be adequately staffed to complete this level of work over the next year?
2. Is the challenge to research Federal, State and Regional transportation organizations or is it
transit programs? This direction to staff is assuming it is transit programs.
3. Narrow the specific analysis to programs that are actually authorized to receive Federal
formula and discretionary funding programs found within the current Federal Transit
Administration. However, that would narrow the field down to three agencies or programs.
Capital Metro, Lone Star Rail and the State of Texas through the Texas Department of
Transportation. CARTS is only a contractor to Capital Metro and provides certain 5310
transit opportunities to persons outside of the Capital Metro Service Area in our jurisdiction.
CAMPO, Project Connect, Project Connect North and My35 are simply planning programs
that include staff from Capital Metro, Lone Star Rail District, and TxDOT and
representatives from local governments.
4. The analysis should be based on how those planning programs will lead to funding through
the project delivery agencies. (Fought amended to include financial risk and benefits to the City)
5. The Council should provide the Board and staff specifics on what type of economic analysis
data will lead to an ultimate decision by the City Council.
6. Finally, some people ‘can’t see what the final project would look like’ or ‘can’t see what a
Transit Oriented Development would look like.’ Years ago, when the City was looking at
transportation options and creating a TOD ordinance, there was a field trip to perform some
on the ground research. Members of the City Council, Planning and Zoning, and staff
(GTAB was not in existence at the time) went and stayed at a TOD to see for themselves.
We should have at least one field trip during this study. Since it has been about 8 years or
so since that first and only field trip, it should be extremely informative to do it again and
see what a TOD looks like today and how the project has performed over the years.
Vote on the original motion as amended: Approved (6‐1) (Hesser opposed)

South Georgetown
Tax Increment
Reinvestment Zone (TIRZ)
City Council Workshop
February 11, 2014
Project Overview
•603 Acres located at IH35 & Westinghouse
Road
–Georgetown’s southern “Gateway”
–Development heading north from Round Rock
•Opportunity for high-quality development
that promotes economic growth
–Infrastructure costs could delay development
•Wastewater capacity needs
•Transportation / connectivity needs
Georgetown South TIRZ Proposed Area
Why create a TIRZ?
•Accelerates development by removing
barriers including…. Infrastructure COSTS
–Having utilities and transportation needs
addressed encourages capital investment
•TIRZ is tool to leverage other City revenue
sources…. while having development pay
for itself
–Wastewater infrastructure costs exceed $7.7M
–Major road improvements include Oakmont
extension
•Costs range from $6.2M to $28M and include Westinghouse
Road, Rabbit Hill Road and Blue Springs extension
How would the plan work?
•City creates TIRZ district – May 2014
•Phase 1 Infrastructure improvements began
–Water Services Fund issues bonds for Phase 1
improvements ($2M)
–GTEC issues bonds for Oakmont Dr ($6.2M)
•Development occurs
–Spec building projects currently on drawing board
–Valuation occurs/tax revenue is generated
•Debt service payments paid from TIRZ
revenue when available
–Estimated 2 to 3 years
POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITES

Project Pro-forma
•Estimated increase in valuation within the
zone – as high as $700M by 2020
•City revenues:
–100% Property Tax = $3M by 2020
•$14M cumulative revenue
–Potential annual sales tax revenue = $75K

•Opportunities for job creation/expansion
–Combination retail/commercial/residential
Williamson County Participation
IF Wilco would participate at 50%:
•Additional revenue = $1.6M by 2020
–Additional $6.2M cumulative
•More easily fund road projects including:
