Item 23
23 is to consider -- we are looking for a document here more than anything else.
>> I got a document from tom's e-mail, but I don't know if that was the final version of it. There's tom.
>> anybody else short on backup besides me? Have you all got yours? 23.
>> as a matter of fact, joe suggested a revision, so I have a revised one.
>> bless you.
>> call it up. 23. Consider document to certify compliance with chapter 242, local government code, regarding the interlocal agreement between Travis County and the city of Austin for regulation of subdivisions in the extra territorial jurisdiction (etj), and take appropriate action. This is the joint city/county subdivision approval project.
>> bless you.
>> I had suggested to tom that we specifically reference the law and the proficience of the law and the resolutions so that we can reflect what it was that we believe that we have done to meet the law. That's what the underlined section is.
>> what this does in the closing paragraph, just before the date is, basically for us to certify compliance with the exception of the authority to collect fees, as provided in -- in our interlocal?
>> right.
>> and that's a matter that we are still working on, the city disagreed with us about whether fees are covered by this legislation anyway. We believe that it is just based on implication, expressions made while the bill was under consideration, et cetera. But we are trying to work on it anyway.
>> right.
>> okay.
>> I would move approval of the order as revised by t.n.r. And --
>> second.
>> tom nuckols.
>> any more discussion? All in favor? That passes by unanimous vote. Thank you very much.
>> thank you, tom. Thank you, joe.
>> thanks.
