EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: CapMetro desires to convey an Integrated Pest Management Restrictive Covenant to the City of Austin to provide a long-term commitment for the maintenance of onsite stormwater treatment facilities at the Expo Center Park and Ride project at 7001 Decker Lane. The Expo Center Park and Ride is part of the implementation of Project Connect and an essential part of addressing the transportation and mobility needs of the Austin community, thereby increasing people’s access to jobs, services, and entertainment in a reliable, safe, and convenient manner.
As a condition of receiving a site development permit for a park and ride that includes onsite stormwater retention and treatment, the City of Austin requires that an Integrated Pest Management Restrictive Covenant be granted to the City.
CapMetro’s established practice requires Board approval before CapMetro grants a restrictive covenant that has a long-term impact property.
