2008/09 Strategies Linked to the 2030 Plan
In March, the City Council provided direction to staff for the upcoming fiscal year, by numerically ranking a
proposed list of new strategies and programs to implement the previously identified priority areas. The
proposed list was a culmination of previous year strategies that were on-going, as well as, new programs
that were recommended by staff or by input from advisory boards. The list included an estimated cost,
assigned division and department, as well as, funding requirement (one-time or on-going). Each Council
member was asked to rank the individual programs between 1 (Very High Priority) and 4 (Low Priority)
depending on their own preferences. The results were summarized and are included within this section
of the budget document. The City Manager then matched available funds to the highest priority projects.
Below is a summary of strategies included in the 2008/09 Annual Budget aligned with each individual
Policy Principal from the Georgetown 2030 Plan along with Council ranking that required funding to be
implemented. Strategies that required staff time or existing resources are included in the summary charts

2030 Annual Update for 2009
The 2030 Comprehensive Plan was unanimously adopted by City Council on February
26, 2008. One of the main tenets of the new plan was an establishment of an annual
update that would detail the past and future implementation items related to the plan.
This report focuses on remaining comprehensive plan elements, plan implementation
efforts over the last year and new goals and actions to be worked on between now and
the 2010 Annual Update. There is also a section regarding proposed changes to the 2030
Plan initiated either by staff or by applications made by the public. Council may direct
staff at this time to make changes to the Plan and/or proceed with the public process for
the amendments, which are scheduled to return to Council for consideration in April.
History
Staff presented to Council on April 22, 2008 a potential list of implementation items for
next year. An August workshop detailed the progress of many of those implementation
items and set up additional tasks to be studied prior to this 2009 Annual Update.
Council then passed a resolution (attached) on November 11, 2008, establishing the
annual update procedures, this report being one of the main objectives of the process.
Contents
The following items are addressed in this report:
• Charter-required Plan Element update and priority schedule
• New Elements completed/in process
• Anticipated/Planned Elements for 2009-2010
• Proposed Plan Amendments for 2009
o Staff-proposed changes
o Citizen-initiated changes
• Utility Master Plan – 2030 Plan connection
• Zoning for Employment Areas – update on progress
• Goals, Policies and Actions addressed in 2008-2009
o Update on UDC Task Force relating to 2030 Plan Implementation
• Goals for 2009-2010
Charter Element Update

though several are moving forward. The Housing and Parks Elements are currently
under consideration; both are in completed form and awaiting Council deliberation.

System (GUS) staff has prepared Executive Summaries to be adopted as the
Infrastructure Element. These will formalize the coordination of the CIP, the Water and
Wastewater Master Plans, and the Comprehensive Plan.

2030 Plan Annual Update
February 23, 2009
Page 2 of 6
The Overall Transportation Plan update process has commenced and their committee is
nearing selection on a consultant. This process should take approximately 15 to 18
months for completion and adoption is tentatively scheduled for Fall 2010. The Public
Safety and Conservation/Natural Resources Elements were considered in the FY 2009
budget, but were not funded. Those plans along with several others are new elements
that await consideration and adoption.
The Citizen Participation Plan is an element that has never been considered for adoption
and is one that staff has been looking at as a priority for the coming year. As proposed,
this plan would be done entirely by staff in a coordinated effort among several City
departments. The plan would accomplish several things – encourage public
participation in the long and short-term planning efforts of the City (and its boards and
commissions) and to inform and involve the citizens on governmental action. It would
involve short and long-term goals for the City’s websites, task forces, communication
with the public including posted and mailed notices, list serves, etc. Staff is currently in
the planning process of this element and anticipates returning to Council this fall for
adoption. There may be some potential costs in publication associated with this plan.
The remaining Comprehensive Plan Elements List, which was accepted as a guide to the
Council regarding approved, ongoing and future Charter elements for the budget
priority process is attached at the end of this report. New details regarding anticipated
timelines, costs, priorities and upcoming actions for all of the elements are included on
the list for the Council’s consideration in the upcoming budget priority process.
Plan Amendments for 2009 Annual Update
As set forth in the November 2008 resolution, any amendments proposed by the public,
staff, the Planning and Zoning Commission or Council will be considered in form by the
Commission and Council prior to the public hearing. The list of amendments is
presented here without details or staff analysis (similar to the UDC process). The
amendments will be given public hearings and Commission and Council consideration
in the coming weeks. The Commission received the list from staff at their February 3,
2009, meeting and unanimously recommended moving forward to City without further
recommendations. At this time, Council has the opportunity to make policy changes or
give direction to staff, ask for further studies or stress the importance of certain
implementation steps for the coming year. Related to the list below, Council may
suggest changes to the staff-proposed amendment list, but the two “citizen-initiated”
amendment proposals cannot be altered at this time. They will return for public hearing
and consideration to City Council no sooner than April after recommendation from the
Commission.
Note: Amendments in the Annual Update Process may be approved by majority vote,
per the terms of the City Charter.

The following are the amendments proposed by staff that will return for approval by
ordinance unless altered by Council at this time. These amendments will be in
completed form and context will be provided where necessary.
Staff-Proposed Amendments
• Add a summary of new and recently adopted changes near the beginning of the
Plan. This would detail the future adoptions of Charter-elements, changes to the
Maps, text, Goals, Policies and Actions and implementation tables.
• Edit 2030 Plan Executive Summary to reflect 1) 2030 Plan as a whole and 2) The
Land Use Element as a separate summary.
• Edit Acknowledgement page to include people who were accidentally omitted.
• Edit Table of Contents to reflect new chapter order to accommodate new
Elements and adopted Executive Summaries.
• Edit Chapter 3 text to describe in detail the land use and density expectations for
the Old Town area in the Land Use Plan.
• Edit Chapter 3 text to clarify allowed supporting Non-Residential uses in the
Residential categories.
• Edit Chapter 3 to add text regarding planning and timing correlations between
the Land Use Plan and the CIP/Utility Master Plans/Impact Fee Studies.
• Edit Chapter 4 text to clarify the amendment/adoption process for Elements,
annual (in-cycle) and out-of-cycle amendments and their corresponding
requirements and procedures.
• Edit Future Land Use Map to better represent the “Institutional” category.
• Edit Growth Tier Map to denote the approved Development Agreement for the
Madison Georgetown property at Reagan/SH 195 to Tier 1B.
Citizen-Initiated Amendments
• The Madison 145 – This is a 145-acre parcel in the southeast section of
Georgetown’s ETJ along CR 111 (future Westinghouse Road). The property is in
Tier 2 (10-20 year horizon) of the Growth Tier Map and is Low-Density
Residential with a Community Commercial node on the Future Land Use Map.
The land is outside of the city limits, is in Jonah Special Utility District’s water
service area and does not have wastewater improvements to the property
planned in the 10-year CIP.
o The applicant is requesting a change from Low-Density to High-Density
Residential. Staff has begun the review process and will report to Planning
and Zoning in April regarding the effect on the City’s long-term utility plans
and any other issues to be considered if this change were to be made.
• Oakmont Crossing – This is a 185-acre parcel in Georgetown’s ETJ, south of CR
111 (future Westinghouse Road). The property is in Tier 2 (10-20 year horizon)
and carries an Employment Center land use designation. The land is also

Page 4 of 6
outside of the city limits, is in Georgetown’s utility service areas and does not
have wastewater improvements to the property planned in the 10-year CIP.
o The applicant is requesting a change from Tier 2 to Tier 1. This change
would result in this property essentially moving up to high-priority on the
Utility’s planning horizon. Staff is reviewing the effect on the utility plans,
consistency with the 2030 Plan and other related issues.
Actions Affecting the 2030 Plan in 2008
There were actions taken this year that will have an effect on the short and long-term
planning efforts of this Plan. The Council approved an additional 982 acres be brought
into the city through the 2008 Annexation Process and entered into annexation
agreements with several large property owners. In addition, the City agreed to two ETJ
boundary agreements with the cities of Liberty Hill and Hutto, with negotiation on a
third with Jarrell in progress. The annexations commit the City to a level of service for
those areas, which are detailed in service plans to be implemented over the next few
years. The ETJ agreements do not change any plans at this time, but establish a barrier
to future growth that will likely assist the City in future planning efforts.
When the Century Plan was the City’s comprehensive planning document, it was
common practice to change the Future Land Use Plan and Intensity Plan in order to
develop or plan to develop a piece of property. The new plan is more fluid and
conceptual in nature, guiding staff and developers in decision-making for zoning and
development intensity without having to make minor changes by ordinance to the
various maps. Since adoption of the 2030 Plan, staff has given support to several zoning
cases that would have previously required an additional application and approval
through the former comprehensive plan process. The decisions made by staff have been
supported by the text, if not the exact rendering of the map, and none of the changes
made so far have warranted physical changes to the map. The new procedure does not
mean that the Future Land Use Plan has less importance; rather, it guides decision-
making without functioning as a zoning map in itself. The adaptation of the new land
use strategy to the long-term planning efforts of the Utility Master Plans (see below) has
led to greater efficiency and certainty in those plans while still allowing flexibility for
new or different developments as the needs occur.
Other Implementation/Coordination Projects for 2008
Utility Master Plans
During the last year, GUS staff and Planning staff have been coordinating planning
efforts for the Electric, Water and Wastewater Master Plans. These long-term plans
contribute to the efforts to determine the 5 and 10-year CIP and the total build-out
calculations, the proper sizing of infrastructure requirements for developments and also
the cost structure for building that infrastructure. GUS, their consultant (CDM), and
Attachment number 1

Item # D
2030 Plan Annual Update
February 23, 2009
Page 5 of 6
Planning spent time integrating the long-term planning goals of the 2030 Plan with the
modeling and calculation of the infrastructure systems.
Zoning for Employment
Planning and Economic Development staff have had a series of meetings since last
summer creating a strategy using the 2030 Plan to encourage more employment within
the city. Our charge from Council was to target areas of town and then specific
properties to rezone in a manner that would reserve and encourage uses that would
generate employment. In recent meetings, staff has discussed bringing in one or more of
the economic development boards to assist in the effort.
The current vision is a two-tiered approach that would focus first on short-term areas for
utility and transportation infrastructure, with investments from the City and,
potentially, the 4A and 4B boards, that could prepare properties in targeted areas for
immediate availability. The second part of the equation would be to identify other
locations for employment centers that might develop outside of the 5 or 10-year CIP but
would have long-term infrastructure needs included in the master planning efforts and
could be reserved for employment uses by the City.
2030 Plan Goals and Policies Implementation Summary
The first goal of the new Land Use Plan Element is to “Promote sound, sustainable, and
compact development patterns with balanced land uses, a variety of housing choices…”
Many of the policies and actions throughout the plan relate to establishing guidelines for
mixed-use developments and encouraging a balanced mix of housing, commercial and
employment uses. City Council has accomplished many of these intentions with the
recent adoption of the Mixed-Use Zoning District. The immediate (0-2 year) priorities
that are being addressed by staff at the present time or have been substantially
completed are attached at the end of this report.
Staff and the UDC Task Force are reviewing the Goals, Policies and Actions from the
Land Use Plan and are making progress on many of these provisions. Staff will be
returning to Council soon with most of the minor (and some major) amendments to the
UDC, with others still in process for future consideration. Some of these items are
directly related to provisions of the new 2030 Plan and staff is taking the opportunity to
look at the code and the development process inclusively. So far, the strategy has
worked and the Task Force and its small groups have discussed wide-ranging issues. It
is a time-consuming process, but the city will be well-served because of these efforts.
Goals for 2009-2010
For 2009, staff will continue to work on implementation items for the immediate
priorities of the Future Land Use Element, including working with the Task Force on
non-residential and residential design standards; establishing criteria for desirable infill

development; concentrating capital investment where needed for infrastructure,
sidewalks, or facilities; completing the employment project for short and long-term
priorities; and continuing to encourage development that puts fewer strains on City
resources and provides citizens with the housing, services and quality of life they expect.
This next year, staff will have completed a significant update to the UDC that will
implement many of the goals of the 2030 Plan. The UDC is and will be crucial to
execution of the policies and actions of the 2030 Plan and staff will continue to
recommend updates to the development code as warranted in the future.
The implementation of a comprehensive plan cannot be done overnight nor should it be
cast aside for future efforts. It takes a disciplined approach to realize the vision of the
community and is always a work in progress. Staff will continue to implement the
policies set forth in the plan and be committed in those efforts, while being adaptable to
changing circumstances and needs of the community. The completion of the remaining
elements of the Plan is crucial a part of its comprehensive nature and, when resources
allow, the outstanding plan elements should be given consideration for adoption. For
2009, staff will continue to integrate the plans for Parks and Housing (when they are
adopted), the new Utility Master Plans, and the ongoing plans for Public Facilities,
Economic Development, etc., to insure the coordination of long-term planning efforts,
goals and policies of the City.
Recommended Motion: Direct staff to continue the 2030 Plan Annual Update process
by moving forward with the proposed amendments.

4.B. Revise the UDC to ensure development that is compatible in character with the
surrounding context.
4.D. Revise the UDC to ensure proper transitions and buffering between established

development.
1.A.2. Reserve and rezone land ideally suited for l ong-term commercial and employment
uses and prevent its use for residential subdivisio ns.

Transit-Oriented Development, mixed-use, and walkable neighborhoods) within
appropriate infill locations.
1.C. Establish standards appropriate for new residential development pertaining to lot sizes,
open space, buffers, road connectivity, etc.
2.A.3. Adjust the City’s schedule of development fe es (e.g., development review fees and

designated areas and more accurately reflect the different costs of providing
services in developed areas (where infrastructure is available), suburban areas, and
fringe areas (where costly infrastructure extension s are necessary).
