BY CARSON GANONG

As the populations of Round Rock, Pugerville and Hutto con- tinue to grow at a rapid rate, local hospitals are investing hundreds of millions of dollars to ensure they can meet needs. Together, the region’s three major hospital networks— Ascension Seton, Baylor Scott & White Health and St. David’s Medical Center—have expan- sions in the works totaling more than $250 million. When complete, those projects will expand the hospitals’ capacity for general care and, in some cases, introduce new types of care that were not previously available with a particular focus on women’s and children’s care. At the same time, a large number of urgent care clinics and free-stand- ing emergency rooms has recently opened across the three cities, pro- viding alternatives for patients who need immediate care and reducing stress on area hospitals. Williamson County EMS Director Mike Knipstein said expansions of major hospitals in Round Rock and Austin will also aect residents in surrounding communities such as Pugerville and Hutto, who often visit those hospitals for services not available in their own cities. “We transport to any hospital within Bell County, Williamson County and also Travis County, [but] most of our transports are here in Wil- liamson County because they oer a plethora of services,” Knipstein said. New services The largest of the three networks’ expansions in Round Rock is Baylor Scott & White’s $220 million addition CONTINUED ON 34

HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS MONTH

FROM AMY: When I am out in the community for work or with my family, I hear from so many readers, business owners and leaders about what they love about Community Impact . Some enjoy having a print product they can hold and touch; others tell me they read our daily newsletter and web stories every day. Almost everyone tells me their favorite is our Impacts section, where we write about stores and restaurants opening, expanding or closing. No matter what you love most about Community Impact , we just appreciate your readership! Please support the local businesses and organizations you enjoy reading about in our news articles, feature stories and advertisements. Amy Leonard Bryant , GENERAL MANAGER

FROM BRIAN: One of the ways we like to inform our readers is through our annual Health Care Edition, which this year features extensive local coverage of hospitals, clinics and free- standing emergency rooms. It also contains a community snapshot that breaks down the latest data by county that includes health rankings, employment trends and workforce data. Brian Rash, SENIOR EDITOR

Meet Travis Baker

Austin Metro Publisher

What’s your typical day as a CI Publisher? TB: One thing I love about my job is that no two days are the same, each lled with new challenges and opportunities. On average, my day starts with some internal meetings. Next, I am in the eld riding along with a sales rep to help pitch a local business as to why our advertising portfolio is the best investment they can make. Then I’m at a chamber networking event, and throughout the day I may be mixing in some editorial decisions on late breaking content, scheduling future stories, etc. Each day my calendar is booked, but rarely is there a day playing out as planned.

What’s your favorite memory working for CI? TB: I’ve had many great memories over my 13 years. One that sticks out the most is when we launched a paper in my hometown of New Braunfels and saw the emails ooding in after our rst delivery. I started documenting them, and when I got to page seven or eight, I realized it was never going to end. The launch was rewarding for myself and also the community.

Where might CI expand to next in your metro? TB: Good question. We have quite a few fans out there, and they are not shy to let us know where we’re needed. I’ve heard from people in Waco, Killeen, Temple, Bastrop and Highland Lakes, to name a few. I look forward to the day that every community across Texas has Community Impact serving it.

Developments underway in Round Rock & Pflugerville

Commerce center to bring 465K square feet of space

Industrial project to be complete in September

Mixed-use project will include homes, businesses

A new 8-acre mixed-use development is under construction in Pflugerville at the corner of FM 685 and Steeds Crossing. At a May 9 meeting, Pflugerville City Coun- cil approved an ordinance zoning the land for urban and suburban district use. The western portion of the tract directly on FM 685 is zoned as an urban district, while the eastern portion is zoned suburban. Developer SKB Architecture & Design will bring a more defined site plan before council at a future meeting, but city materials state the land is slated to include both residential and commercial units.

Construction of a large commercial development in central Round Rock began May 9. The Sunrise Commerce Center, located at 2380 Oakmont Drive, Round Rock, will occupy 37 acres and bring 465,786 square feet of new commercial property to the area. The center will be built in two phases with the first slated for completion this fall. Adolfson & Peterson Construction is constructing the buildings for developer IDI Logistics. Zack Rogers, vice president of the AP Gulf States region, said in a release the two industrial buildings at the Sunrise Commerce Center will be in a great location due to its nearby access to I-35.

A large industrial shell project in southeast Round Rock is on track for completion in September. Three Class A industrial buildings under construction at 2100 S. A.W. Grimes Blvd., Round Rock, will be known as Round Rock 45 once completed. Representatives of developer Link Logis- tics—a subsidiary of Blackstone, which is also constructing the Settlers Grove industrial park—said the three Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design-certified structures that broke ground in October will deliver 139,000 square feet, 127,240 square feet and 102,000 square feet of space.

News from Round Rock ISD

BY BROOKE SJOBERG

HIGHLIGHTS ROUND ROCK ISD In May, work on an expansion of Westwood High School added math classrooms, an art studio, a new band hall, orchestra and choir rooms, and two large dance studios. The $32.28 million project was funded through the 2018 bond. ROUND ROCK ISD As the district heads into its next budget planning cycle for the 2023-24 school year, officials are exploring pay increases for employees. At a May 18 board meeting, district staff presented board members with several options for raises that could be approved with a June budget adoption. Round Rock ISD board of trustees will meet June 20 at 5:30 p.m. 300 Lake Creek Drive, Round Rock 512-464-5000 www.roundrockisd.org MEETINGS WE COVER NUMBER TO KNOW responses gathered in the district’s first survey of student well-being during the spring semester. 21,193 This is the number of student

First tax rate election in district history on horizon ROUND ROCK ISD Voters who live in Round Rock ISD’s boundaries may be asked for the first time to approve a tax rate revenue increase in a voter-approved tax rate election, or VATRE. During a May 18 meeting, the IMPACT TO HOMEOWNERS Round Rock ISD officials could include a voter approved tax rate election, or VATRE, in a November election that could result in property owners paying 3% more in taxes. 2022-23 rate: $1.0626 2023-24 rate with Example home value 2022-23 taxes due 2023-24 rate no VATRE taxes due 2023-24 rate with VATRE taxes due

no VATRE: $0.9764 2023-24 rate with passed VATRE: $1.0064

RRISD board of trustees discussed the district-staff-proposed VATRE, which could result in property owners paying 3% more in taxes for fiscal year 2023-24. Maritza Gallaga, RRISD’s interim chief of public affairs and communi- cations, said the district has no record of a prior tax rate election, which is the mechanism by which Texas school districts can levy a higher tax rate to generate more property tax revenue. The district levied a tax rate of $1.0626 for fiscal year 2022-23, and if passed, the VATRE will levy a tax rate of $1.0064. While technically a lower rate than the previous year, it is expected to generate more revenue as taxable property values rise within the district.

10% increase from $350,000 to $385,000 in 2023

The proposition would set aside an extra $0.03 of tax revenue, bringing the total to $0.08 per $100 of prop- erty valuation that would not be subject to recapture, or repayment to the state. District staff said that will result in extra revenue for RRISD. If passed, the tax rate election would help with the district’s ongoing funding problem, as its state recapture payments have increased from $14.8 million for the 2021-22 school year to more than $85 million for 2022-23, district staff said.

RRISD Superintendent Hafedh Azaiez said at the May 18 board meeting that without the added tax revenue, the district will have to make difficult budgetary decisions about staffing, class sizes, electives available to students, and athletic and fine arts programs. Officials have not yet ordered a VATRE, but RRISD Chief Financial Officer Dennis Covington said the first step in the election process would be for the board to adopt its proposed budget June 20.

QUOTE OF NOTE

ERCOT projects record demand for electricity this summer

NUMBER TO KNOW That’s how many Texans died from fentanyl overdoses in 2022, according to Gov. Greg Abbott. 2,012 UPDATES FROM LOCAL LEGISLATORS SENATE BILL 14, WHICH WOULD BAN TRANSITION-RELATED TREATMENTS FOR TRANSGENDER MINORS. THE TEXAS LEGISLATURE PASSED THE BILL, AND GOV. GREG ABBOTT HAS UNTIL JUNE 18 TO SIGN IT. “WE WILL NEVER STOP FIGHTING ALONGSIDE OUR PARTNERS TO CREATE A FUTURE WHERE TRANSGENDER YOUTH, ADULTS AND THEIR FAMILIES ARE SAFE AND FREE TO EXIST IN THEIR OWN HOME STATE.” MARTI BIER, VICE PRESIDENT OF PROGRAMS AT THE TEXAS FREEDOM NETWORK, ON THE TEXAS HOUSE’S PASSAGE OF

hot outside, but the sun has set and winds begin to die down. “We will continue to use every tool available to keep the lights on and the AC running this summer,” said Peter Lake, chair of the Public Utility Commission of Texas, which regulates ERCOT. As a result, Texans could be asked to conserve energy or even face brownouts this summer. Brownouts typically occur when utility companies reduce the flow of electricity to certain areas to prevent a large-scale blackout. Lights may dim or flicker, but homes will still receive power. The report states, emergency con- ditions are possible when three things happen simultaneously: extreme heat; low renewable energy output; and widespread outages at dispatch- able power plants. Vegas said there is a less than 1% chance of this happening, but officials will communicate with Texans if voluntary conservation is recommended or the grid reaches emergency conditions.

SUPPLY AND DEMAND

Texans could experience brownouts due to record demand for power this summer, the Electric Reliability Council of Texas predicted. In a report released May 3, Texas’ power grid operator anticipated peak demand could reach 82,739 megawatts on the hottest days. Due to over two years of reforms following Winter Storm Uri, ERCOT CEO Pablo Vegas said the power grid is “more reliable than ever.” But as Texas’ population continues to grow, officials said demand for electricity will begin to outpace the amount of available dispatchable power, which comes from sources such as natural gas and coal. This means Texas will need to rely on renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, to keep the lights on. Unlike dispatchable sources, energy regulators cannot always count on the sun and wind to be there. Vegas said the highest-risk periods for the grid will be after 9 p.m., when it remains

During the hottest days this summer, the Electric Reliability Council of Texas expects demand for electricity could surpass 82,000 megawatts. Peak demand in 2022 was 80,038 MW.

A MW can power 200 homes during peak demand. Dispatchable energy: power sources such as coal, natural gas and nuclear that come from energy plants.

House fails to advance 'raise the age' gun bill

School district tax bill would exclude renewable energy

victims’ families and other gun safety advocates, the House Select Committee on Community Safety, which deals with gun-related leg- islation, passed the bill out of the committee with an 8-5 vote May 8. Republican Reps. Sam Harless, of Spring, and Justin Holland, of Rockwall, voted with Democrats in favor of the bill. Despite the committee’s vote, the bill was not placed on the House calendar and was not be debated by the full chamber. Texas House Democrats attempted to add the legislation to other bills through amendments May 11, but the amendments were voted down.

In an unexpected vote May 8, a Texas House committee advanced a bill that would raise the minimum age to purchase semi-automatic weapons. However, lawmakers did not send the bill to the House for consideration by the May 11 deadline. House Bill 2744, by Rep. Tracy King, D-Batesville, proposed to raise the minimum age required to purchase semi-automatic rifles from 18 to 21. The bill has been pushed for months by the families of the 19 students and two teachers who were killed during a mass shooting in Uvalde last year. In an initial victory for the

HOUSE BILL 683 This bill would exempt tuition and laboratory fees for certain paramedics at public institutions of higher education. After the Texas House passed HB 683 April 26, the bill failed to advance out of a Senate committee vote and will not advance further in the Texas Legislature.

BY HANNAH NORTON

The Texas House passed a bill May 5, followed by the Texas Senate on May 24, that would give corpora- tions significant discounts on school district property taxes. House Bill 5, by Rep. Todd Hunter, R-Corpus Christi, would replace Chapter 313, a popular corporate tax break program that expired in December. The bill seeks to attract businesses to Texas by limiting their property taxes over a 10-year period. The bill would provide incentives for projects that require “an invest- ment in a school district in Texas of more than $1 billion.” Those include supply chain infrastructure, manu- facturing and power grid reliability. Renewable energy projects likely would not qualify for the tax breaks. The House approved HB 5 with a 120-24 vote. The bill was sent to Gov. Greg Abbott's office on May 30 and must be signed by June 18.
