City planning staff, referencing Planned Development District (PDD) ordinance No. 480 and Planning & Zoning Commission order No. 2025-01, summarized technical corrections the applicant had made. Staff said the replat and site plan incorporate recorded instruments that vacate or amend multiple electric, telephone, drainage and access easements and that the applicant had provided recording information required by the subdivision ordinance. Staff also said the Planning & Zoning Commission recommended approval on June 3, 2025, subject to the recorded instruments and updated plat notes.

Kim Potok of Friese and Nichols, representing the applicant, described the project site and technical details. Potok said the original site contained infrastructure from an earlier development (including pavement, a pump system, a building foundation, a fountain, steps, walls, a deck and a helipad) that the project will remove. The proposed development will include 13 buildings comprising 55 townhome lots, associated water/wastewater infrastructure to be provided by the West Travis County Public Utility Agency, a retention-irrigation water-quality facility, a detention pond and a 12,000-gallon rainwater-harvesting tank described as about 17 feet tall. Potok said the plan’s impervious-cover calculation is 2.766 acres, just under the applicable 2.77-acre limit; she also described porous sidewalks and fire lanes and explained how the stormwater system will route overflow to the irrigation and detention ponds.

Following the presentation, a council member raised questions about the developer’s affiliations and whether related entities (including references to the Lovett Group and the Morgan Group in the transcript) were tied to the project; the council member said a public records email indicated contact between a former council member and a company associated with the developer. An owner representative told the council the company intends to build as shown on the site plan and said senior management has reviewed the disclosed contacts and committed to avoid conflicts of interest with the city on the project. The owner representative described a typical construction phasing approach—staggered starts for buildings with certificates of occupancy issued building-by-building—and said he would provide a schedule when available. City staff advised the applicant to review PDD phasing language to confirm whether a PDD amendment is required for phased certificates of occupancy.

When the council reconvened from executive session, members moved to approve the replat and the site and NPS plan; both motions passed unanimously.

The council did not record additional actions arising from the executive session. City staff noted the recorded easements and replat instruments will be added to the official record as required.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Bee Cave - Regular Council Meeting - Jun 10, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Bee Cave City Council unanimously approved the replat of Block B, Lot 4 and the site and NPS plan for the Pearl townhomes at 13216 Bee Cave Parkway, approving recorded easements and technical corrections; council asked the developer to address potential conflicts of interest involving outside firms.","taxTitle","Bee Cave, Travis County, Texas","taxId",62152,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6539088,"Council approves $17,000 in hotel-occupancy-tax funds to support lacrosse invitational",536,362000,898000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3755061-e2c13a67ee237eab30705a4f6012df5c&start=362&end=898","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3755061-e2c13a67ee237eab30705a4f6012df5c/thumbnail_362000.jpg","/articles/6539088/Bee-Cave/Travis-County/Texas/Council-approves-17000-in-hotel-occupancy-tax-funds-to-support-lacrosse-invitational","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6539088-164e13605dc979dcefea3d698388e5f4/orig.mp4?Expires=1773567365&Signature=YRwRxd3eIMGhLL3SCAGGoaugvx-0v-lOGlNFRmPfshsixkupV097Y0YIi1mZfUmqh0NdVTmn-36svMRX-SowfPD3F9Puajmoguq9BydfD19uukOcq6qKLuTJhoa0WzO7uKnhJPe039-liiUpik0YMfcqRmmnM-zIqv5q50haln04dLjX5tDaZt0Bu4XrPjrDHCZ6N~lLppe-LHXyG0sQOaPjhqgEsodoseKYFglY6SkttP4qnDpilB67BWfl8tPXTqxU4QYDKKDe~PzVbp3F2oRNRZUgJTcfhp-KStdxxOjzG6oOEON~e7QghNN1rocfnP0RRiJtxZ0NfMz2BR9A5g__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Bee Cave City Council voted unanimously to approve a reimbursement of $17,000 from the city’s hotel-occupancy-tax (HOT) fund to the Lake Travis Youth Association (LTYA) to support advertising and promotion for the Austin Lacrosse Summer Invitational Tournament, which LTYA will hold the weekend immediately following the council meeting.

City staff introduced the HOT-fund application and said the request is for reimbursement of part of LTYA’s advertising and promotional expenses. City staff told council that LTYA previously received $20,000 in hotel-occupancy-tax funds for a fall lacrosse invitational tournament.

Scott Cronk, executive director of the Lake Travis Youth Association and a Bee Cave resident, told the council LTYA’s ask is intended to attract tourists to the Bee Creek Sports Complex and surrounding hotels and restaurants. Cronk said last June (2024) the organization hosted about 40 teams and reported roughly 64 room nights; he noted those figures are an imperfect measure. For the upcoming weekend, Cronk said 28 teams were registered at the time of the meeting, including 22 teams from outside the local Bee Cave area and 17 teams from outside the Austin/San Antonio region; he said about six teams were local to Bee Cave and Lakeway. Cronk said 56 room nights were booked in the Sonesta room block and that actual room reporting is likely higher because some attendees book outside the block or after it expires.

Council members asked whether Lakeway had provided funding and discussed the city’s prior contributions to similar tournaments. A council member confirmed the city’s contribution is intended for marketing, advertising and promotion rather than direct tournament operations; Cronk confirmed the funds are for promotion only.

A council member moved to approve the $17,000 HOT reimbursement; the motion passed unanimously.

Records provided during the presentation included promotional materials, web-traffic numbers for LTYA’s event page, and examples of on-site branding. City staff said LTYA submitted a post-event funding analysis for a previous fall event that complied with city policy.","The Bee Cave City Council unanimously approved $17,000 in hotel-occupancy-tax (HOT) funds to reimburse promotional expenses for the Lake Travis Youth Association’s Austin Lacrosse Summer Invitational Tournament.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6539091,"Bee Cave schedules SpongeBob partnership, free CPR class and summer reading push",298,62000,360000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3755061-e2c13a67ee237eab30705a4f6012df5c&start=62&end=360","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3755061-e2c13a67ee237eab30705a4f6012df5c/thumbnail_62000.jpg","/articles/6539091/Bee-Cave/Travis-County/Texas/Bee-Cave-schedules-SpongeBob-partnership-free-CPR-class-and-summer-reading-push","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6539091-b7fc0b30e1b8d69aaaaa7e00a0b4e3bd/orig.mp4?Expires=1773567365&Signature=DG8gMQjAbpo7Kz7vilAHLlEIuUodPocE2oW5tNT7ETvKL0uenKYqU-wMefGNwQird7Hl493zIJAzaaEw5AGdEwJpSBt1mFVdHRhYnLFa4EDXHsGeI9WoHZ6A47PVvZF5M8gR7yNdKavfYZIjg--oAfEjRNRNxkZ-IV0F3sF31HWDuD2fZPBq29jTiLZlwUN77kNEtmMugDpXFV5LrkRr7z3HbQE4ttPuI3CDsxvaBizm20S8XIVjYUbg8FcHPn1Sp3kLZpJtG9HliC3loxvI8dCc978qvDWk3nESCMlKI4WED4f4MSAg77wIGGIOa0e7jb9g5pjqTx7ztgE5W0iZMQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Bee Cave city staff announced a citywide promotional partnership with Magnolia Musical Theater and the Bee Cave Development Corporation to coincide with Magnolia’s production of SpongeBob, and shared two other summer programs including a free CPR class and the public library’s summer-reading challenge.

City staff said the SpongeBob shows will run July 16 through Aug. 16 and that local businesses can enroll as free marketing partners with the Bee Cave Development Corporation and Magnolia Musical Theater; the deadline to sign up as a local marketing partner is June 13, staff said. Staff asked council members to help spread the word to businesses that serve families.

The city also announced a free, hands-on CPR class offered in partnership with Lake Travis Fire Rescue. The session is scheduled for Monday, June 23, from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.; staff said the class is not a certification course but will include instructor-led practice on mannequins. Registration for the CPR class is open through June 20, staff said.

Library staff provided an update on the Bee Cave Public Library’s summer-reading program, saying the library challenged participants to read a total of 300,000 minutes this summer and reported the program is already at about 27,000 minutes. The library has already held four summer-reading events with about 15 more planned, including a lawn ‘big time bubbles’ foam party and a family night scheduled for next week; the library posted its full calendar on the city website.

All three updates were presented as informational items during the council meeting; staff said the SpongeBob partnership and CPR class are intended to engage families and local businesses and that library events are open to the public.

City staff contact information and registration links for the SpongeBob business partnership, the CPR class and the summer-reading calendar are posted on the city website, staff said.","City staff and partners announced a citywide SpongeBob-themed promotional partnership, a free CPR training on June 23 and library summer-reading goals; business and public registration deadlines are June 13 and June 20.","actionData","errors"]
