According to the Texas Department of Transportation, the project included road reconstruction and the addition of three new flyovers at US 183. The project also included intersection bypass lanes.

Vision Zero started these efforts to make intersections safer, as data shows over a third of traffic collisions between 2017 and 2021 occurred at signalized intersections. “Think of major intersections: high speeds, high volumes, a lot of conflict points. All of those are the conditions that lead toward a higher likelihood of severe injury or death and just high risk generally,” said Lewis Leff, Vision Zero’s lead traffic safety officer. Since 2016, ATD completed safety improvements on 19 separate intersections in Austin. ATD added green protective arrows and flashing yellow arrows for left-turners. Crews increased crosswalk visibility, bicycle signage and added bicycle detection.

improved intersections at which it had at least one year of crash data. Results show that serious injuries and death decreased substantially among every category of safety improvement. Visions Zero’s report explains these results should be interpreted as “early, but promising.” While overall serious injuries, fatalities and collisions are all increas- ing from last year, Vision Zero officials are taking small steps in the right direction, according to Leff. “I think it’s going to take a different, maybe stronger, more transformative approach to the designs that we put out there for intersections [and] segments of road that had severe crashes,” Leff said. “And being able

TRAVIS COUNTY Austin and Travis County declared monkeypox a public health emergency Aug. 9. As of Aug. 23, there are 110 conrmed cases in Travis County, one of which led to hospitalization due to pain, according to Health Authority Desmar Walkes. According to Walkes, the city was given vaccines and medications for individuals who were exposed to a known case or to individuals who attended an event where they could have been exposed. AUSTIN City labor negotiators and Austin EMS Association representatives announced a tentative one-year agreement on Aug. 19. It sets a $22 an hour starting pay for EMTs, up 12.5% from the current entry level salary and $30.03 per hour for paramedics. It also raises salaries by 4% to 11.2%. City Council will vote on the contract Sept. 1. Austin EMS Association members will also have an opportunity to vote on the measure. If both votes pass, the contract will be adopted.

AUSTIN Ocials directed hundreds of thousands of dollars toward new stang, reviews and other improvements at the Austin Police Department Sex Crimes Unit. The scal year 2022-23 budget additions were based on new rec- ommendations from the Police Executive Research Forum, which recently completed an audit of hundreds of sexual assault cases handled by APD. “These services will help survivors obtain the healing and justice they deserve,” said Mayor Pro Tem Alison Alter, who for- warded the budget amendments.

A $350 million bond would raise the scal year 2022-23 property tax rate by $0.0132 per $100 property valuation, a 2.85% increase. That would amount to $47.91 a year for the median property taxpayer. Bond funds would back both rental and ownership housing projects, home repairs and land acquisition. The push for a new round of city support for aordable housing comes as more than three-fourths of $250 million 2018 housing bond funds are already spent or dedicated to new projects. "I’m proud to be part of a council that did the historic $250 million

And certainly we’re in a crisis," Mayor Steve Adler said Aug. 18. "We’re building more houses than anybody in the country, and it’s still not enough, so we have to keep our eort to ll these gaps, and this does that."

Austin ISD board of trustees adds $2.44B bond package to election EDUCATION

BOND ANALYSIS The AISD board of trustees voted to put a $2.44 billion bond package up for an election in November. The package will be split into three propositions on voters’ ballots in the upcoming election.

BY ZACH KEEL

Proposition B asks voters to approve $75.54 million for technology upgrades; and Proposition C is $47.43 million for improvements to stadium facilities in the district. Interim Superintendent Anthony Mays expressed his enthusiasm for the bond package’s focus on low- er-income schools. “What is exciting about this pro- posal is that it represents the biggest investment in students in historically underserved communities and in Title 1 schools while providing a ben- et to every campus in our district,” Mays said during the Aug. 11 meeting. Kevin Foster, District 3 trustee, after expressing concern that the administration’s $2.25 billion recom- mendation at the Aug. 9 board work session moved funding away from Black and brown students, lent his enthusiastic support to the amended $2.44 billion recommendation during the Aug. 11 meeting.

The Austin ISD board of trustees voted unanimously on Aug. 11 to authorize a November election for a $2.44 billion bond package. The price tag for the bond package, the largest in AISD’s history, would be a $0.01 property tax rate increase. According to a presentation given by Matias Segura, AISD chief opera- tions ocer, AISD’s 2023 tax rate will still be the lowest in eight years. The package, which stood at $2.25 billion during the board’s bond work session Aug. 9, was increased by an additional $189 million prior to the Aug. 11 vote. The bond package will be presented in November to voters within the district’s boundaries as three propositions. Proposition A asks voters to approve $2.32 billion for improvements to the district’s schools, including security and energy eciency improvements;

“The bulk of funds in this package go to schools in historically under- served communities—overwhelm- ingly,” Foster said. The last bond passed by voters totaled $1.05 and received 72% support. Jason Stanford, AISD chief of communications and community

engagement said the district will spend the next several months informing voters about the bond. “[W]herever people are gathered, whether it’s high school football games, church picnics, that sort of thing—we’re going to be there talking about the bond and what’s in it,” said Stanford.
