Authorize negotiation and execution of an interlocal agreement with Travis County to allow the City to process, regulate, permit, and enforce development regulations on approximately 2,614 acres located in the City’s extraterritorial jurisdiction bounded by the Colorado River, US Highway 183, and State Highway 130, in the area generally known as “Dog's Head” and on roadways and right-of-way within Dog’s Head and on abutting roadways and right-of-way.

This would set up an interlocal agreement with Travis County so the City of Austin could handle development regulations — processing, permitting, and enforcement — for about 2,614 acres in Austin's extraterritorial jurisdiction. The area, known as "Dog's Head," sits where the Colorado River, US Highway 183, and State Highway 130 come together. The deal would also cover the roadways and right-of-way within and abutting that area, clarifying who's in charge of development on the city's eastern edge.
