Mark your calendars - National Night Out 2007 will be held on August 7th at the Western Hills Athletic Club (aka The Rollingwood Pool). NNO is a public event and all Rollingwood residents are encouraged to attend: pool membership is not required.

7/18 City Council & 7/20 Park Commission

The City Council is having a regular meeting on Wednesday 7/18 at 7 PM. The complete agenda is posted online and includes:

  • LRCA budget review
  • Park Commission on Little League lease
  • Plat review for 402 Vale (from P&Z)
  • Several PUC items about waste water
  • Consider changes to the sex offender ordinance
  • Reports from city departments
  • Distribution of paint brushes to further “green city” objective

The Park Commission has called a special meeting (agenda online) on Friday 7/20 to discuss a multi-purpose building and RFQs for outstanding projects including the walking trail.

Both meetings are in City Hall.

Q&A includes comments about Bee Cave Road improvements

From Statesman’s Ben Wear: Getting There on 7/9/07:

Q: They widened Bee Cave Road from MoPac up to Eanes Creek about three years ago, and I heard they were to continue west with that. Then nothing happened. What’s up with that?

A: Nothing, unfortunately. The cities of West Lake Hills and Rollingwood were supposed to get right of way for further widening, Daigh said, but were depending on donated land and never got all that was necessary.

Now, with sharply increased construction costs and diversion of some money to other Transportation Department projects, the agency has on hand less than a third of the $34 million construction cost, even if the right of way becomes available.

Statesman highlights Rollingwood, RWC, and Shanti Jayakumar

From 7/8/07 Statesman: “Time rolls right past the small city of Rollingwood

Nestled just three miles from the Capitol dome — as the red-tailed hawk soars — the cozy bedroom community of Rollingwood is a time capsule of sorts, a delightful reminder of the days before suburbs became showplaces for buffed-up homes that loom over tiny strips of green.

Read the rest including their mention of Shanti Jayakumar.
