Several firefighters from the North Hays County Fire Rescue didn’t mind getting a little wet Saturday as they christened their brand new fire engine, Engine 75, with a traditional “push-in” ceremony. The ceremony was for their new two-door 4x4 engine that can carry four personnel. NHCFR’s new engine cost $375,000 and was manufactured by Piece at their plant in Florida. Engine 75 is going into service at Station 75 at Fitzhugh Road and Ranch Road 12. The new truck that Engine 75 is replacing will move to the Henly Station on Creek Road, NHCFR Chief Scott Collard said.

Wimberley to crack down on flood-damaged homes BY MOSES LEOS III
moses@haysfreepress.com
Concern is rising in Wimberley over homes along the Blanco River still showing signs of damage from the devastating 2015 Memorial Day flood. Wimberley city leaders are now looking to possibly take the next step, as they approved an item Sept. 15 to begin code enforcement efforts on damaged structures. Wimberley City Administrator Don Ferguson said the “time has come” to begin the process of addressing damaged structures due to the safety hazard those homes present. “We’ve been patient, and justifiably so, for people that suffered substantial damage to properties to get them repaired and into a state to where they’re usable,” Ferguson said. “We’re a year and a half out from that event. I think we’re at a point where neighbors are starting to grow concerned about the safety of those structures.” Ferguson said he didn’t have an exact number of homes that are damaged, but he doesn’t expect the city to find many. Ferguson said some of the homes were left abandoned by homeowners after the flood, while other homes showed the initial signs of the demolition process, but no further movement. Wimberley’s approach, which Ferguson said is “proactive,” is to reach out to homeowners of damaged structures to spur movement on repairs. He said the city plans to identify structures that do not meet city code, and then send notice to homeowners and work on a possible correction plan. If the city is unable to reach a homeowner after a certain period of time, however, the city would have to go in and repair, or possibly demolish, a home as a last resort. Ferguson said he hopes the city doesn’t “have to go to that extent” and have homeowners take care of those homes. “The city has no desire to go in and start cleaning up people’s property and demolishing people’s homes,” Ferguson said. “We do have a desire to make sure the community is safe and is free of substandard structures.” Council member Craig Fore was concerned about the city possibly tearing “someone’s house down.” Fore said working with volunteer groups to work on
A signage program meant to help visitors find their way around Wimberley is moving forward several years after the project was idealized. The Wimberley City Council earlier this month approved the initial phase of the city’s wayfinding sign project, which costs approximately $25,000.

Citing safety concerns, Wimberley city officials are looking to enforce codes on structures still showing damage from last year’s flood events.
“These will be hard discussions. A legacy may have to go away if it has to, but it’s a safety issue. It’s a public safety issue.” –Don Ferguson, Wimberley city administrator
each individual case as needed would be preferred. Council member Gary Barchfeld said he was okay with approving the item, so long as it was just for notification purposes only.
Barchfeld also focused on working with volunteer groups to provide assistance. Ferguson said several churches in the area, along with the Blanco River Regional Recovery Team (BR3T), could provide assistance. “We need to be as helpful to folks with this problem as possible,” Barchfeld said. “There are so many good organizations that want to help, that we can take it one step at a time.” Ferguson said city staff didn’t want to take the step of code enforcement without council’s blessing, as it is “an important step to take.” Ensuring there is enough discussion with property owners is critical, Ferguson said. “We’re looking at structures that have been in people’s families for a long time,” Ferguson said. “These will be hard discussions. A legacy may have to go away if it has to, but it’s a safety issue. It’s a public safety issue.”
A 90-day hold on the issuance of conditional use permits (CUPs) for short-term rental and bed and breakfast facilities in Wimberley passed the first hurdle Sept. 15. By a unanimous 4-0 vote, the Wimberley City Council approved on first reading its ordinance for a 90-day moratorium on CUPs for short-term rentals. Mayor Mac McCullough and council member Sally Trap were absent from the Sept. 15 meeting. A second reading was scheduled for this past Tuesday. City Administrator Don Ferguson said the moratorium would begin once it’s approved on second reading and would extend until the beginning of December. He said the moratorium would go into effect temporarily and could be rescinded by council before the 90-days expire once the city addresses the in-place ordinance. Ferguson said the city would hold public meetings and combine input from stakeholders on changes that need to be made to the in-place ordinance. Wimberley’s ordinance requires new short-term rental and bed and breakfast facilities to apply for a CUP to operate in the city. The ordinance has led to a wave of controversy, both for and against STRs in Wimberley. Ferguson said the purpose of the moratorium is to give council and planning and zoning commission the opportunity to “wade in jointly, hand in hand” in the water of the short term rental business and some of the neighborhood concerns. “And to try to see if any regulations need to be modified to address concerns the neighbors have

New app gets big play at local festival BY JONATHAN GONZALEZ
“In the past, we’ve always had the People’s Choice Awards, but it did not have very good participation … It used paper and took too long to count up ... We wanted to make the experience more interactive.”
news@haysfreepress.com
The use of smart phone technology played a role during the 2016 Dripping With Taste Festival in Dripping Springs as an Austin-based application make its debut at the event. What’s My Wine, a food and wine-based rating app, debuted at the festival, where more than 2,000 people gathered to sample wares from over 75 vendors, including breweries, wineries, distilleries and restaurants. It was an innovative undertaking for the Dripping Springs Chamber of Commerce, organizers of the festival, as the app allowed for a more streamlined way of communicating how participants enjoyed the samples at the event. Participants in the festival were invited to use the app to rate the beer, wine, or food on a scale of one to five stars, which were then used to determine the festival favorites at the end of the event. “In the past, we’ve always had the People’s Choice Awards, but it did not have very good participation… It used paper and took too long to count up,” Pam Owens of the Dripping Springs Chamber said. “We wanted to make the experience more interactive.” When the founders

of What’s My App approached the Chamber about potentially using the app at the festival, it provided a beneficial arrangement for both sides. “This year we had twice as many participants than in the past,” Owens said in regards to the success of the app. It also provided the
creators of What’s My Wine an opportunity to collect data to further develop the app, which is still only web-based. The creators of the app hope to continue to work with festivals in the Austin area to gain more exposure. The app, developed by three Austin entrepreneurs, predicts a user’s ideal wine
preferences by creating a taste profile based on their past ratings. The more products you rate, the more accurate the profile will become. Users are also able to filter by price, type and location to determine what wine would be best suited for them. “There are so many factors that go into

Texans hold off rivals 31-21 BY QUIXEM RAMIREZ
news@haysfreepress.com
As the football sailed in the air, Wimberley defensive back Colby Crowder positioned himself for what would eventually be the game-clinching interception in the Texans’ 31-21 win over Canyon Lake Friday night. Canyon Lake was in the midst of a fourth quarter drive that could have cut the deficit to three points. In that moment, with the ball fluttering in the middle of field, Crowder said last year’s 28-14 loss to Canyon Lake was on his mind. Wimberley wanted a redo of the previous season, when the Hawks held them scoreless in the second half to claim the victory. “We’ve been waiting on this game since Week One,” Crowder said. “We knew we had to come out and show what we got. And that’s what we did.” That moment of retribution finally came when Crowder leaped in the air for the interception. Canyon Lake’s drive was over and Wimberley’s celebration was just beginning. “We’ve been looking forward to this game for awhile since we lost last year,” said wide receiver Gavin Martinez. “I just don’t like losing to those guys. It’s not very fun to lose to them because they

are right down the road.” Wimberley celebrated a win in which quarterback JoJo Weeks completed 21 of 30 passes for 287 yards, three passing touchdowns and one interception. All three of Weeks’ touchdowns were longer than 20 yards. “My line was outstanding,” Weeks said. “I had no pressure at all. The receivers were making plays. It was great.” Wimberley head coach

Doug Warren said Weeks’ biggest improvement is his comfort level on the field. In Friday’s win, Warren said Weeks changed the original play several times based on the defensive coverage. “The last couple of weeks you’ve seen a quarterback that is starting to mature a little bit and take control of the offense and be more confident in his decisions,” Warren said. “He has a lot of ability and
he has a strong arm. It’s a growing process and he’s taken some nice steps the last couple weeks.” Weeks’ primary beneficiary was Gavin Martinez, who led the team with six catches, 93 yards and two receiving touchdowns. By the third quarter, Weeks had developed enough confidence in his receiver to attempt a pass in close coverage on the

Continued from pg. 1 left sideline. Martinez didn’t have any space and the defender was draped all over him. “As long as I throw it up there and it’s near him, he’s gonna catch it,” Weeks said. Weeks’ confidence was rewarded when Martinez hauled in the 26-yard touchdown that extended Wimberley’s lead to 17 points. “JoJo just threw it up and I was able to get it,” Martinez said. “After I made that play, I knew we had to keep on rolling. It wasn’t over.” Martinez’s other touchdown was a 38-yard pass where Weeks had enough time to look at the left side of the field, then towards the right and back to the left side where Martinez was running past the defender. Martinez said he was able to find space for the touchdown grab because the safety was out of position. In all, Wimberley and Canyon Lake accounted for six touchdowns that were longer than 20 yards. Canyon Lake, which trailed the entire game, returned a kick for a 76-yard touchdown in the second quarter and completed a 39-yard passing touchdown in the third quarter for the team’s final score of the game. Each touchdown

Meanwhile, Canyon Lake was held to 74 yards on 34 carries, forcing the running oriented Hawks outside of their comfort zone. “It was a nice win against a good football team,” Warren said. “I’m pleased with the overall development of our team. We’ve gotten a little better each week and that’s exactly what you want.”

Signage
Continued from pg. 1 The goal of the wayfinding sign program, crafted by the city’s transportation advisory board several years ago, was to give people who visit Wimberley directions around town. Don Ferguson, Wimberley City Administrator, said the city has a “tourist based economy,” which can house as many as 10,000 people during certain weekends. “The program would involve design and implementation of information signs that would help visitors find their way around town more easily,” Ferguson said. The city’s wayfinding sign program is a two-component process, Ferguson said. The motoring component would help visitors driving around Wimberley find locations in town. Wimberley’s second component is assisting pedestrians on the Wimberley Square, which includes directional signage and kiosks. Ferguson said the city identified several locations in Wimberley for the new signage, with some signs to be installed on state highways. Over the next 12 to 18 months, Ferguson said the city would begin the first phase of the project. The first phase calls for installation of signs the city leaders feel “are most important to help people find their way around,” Ferguson said. But challenges could arise, as the city must adhere to state standards when it comes to signage on highways. Ferguson said adhering to state standards could mean the total cost rising to roughly $100,000.
Challenges could arise, as the city must adhere to state standards when it comes to signage on highways. Don Ferguson, Wimberley city administrator, said adhering to state standards could mean the total cost rising to roughly $100,000. The expense in erecting signs on the state right-ofway comes from meeting state requirements for signage. Ferguson said the state requires some signs to have certain types of bases and must have breakaway capability for the posts. Wimberley must also have its wayfinding signs “signed off” by Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) officials before they can be installed. Ferguson said it is unknown how long it could take to obtain TxDOT approval for the signs. “We will have to get the state to sign off on the program,” Ferguson said. “If we have to tweak the program to meet stan-
dards, we will do that.” Part of the cost will also go toward crafting signs that are original and customized for Wimberley, Ferguson said. Design of the signs was done during the program development phase, where the signs went through the public process, Ferguson said. The amount for the city’s initial phase of the project was allocated within the fiscal year 2017 budget and comes from the city’s general fund. Ferguson said the city’s general fund is the target source of revenue, but the city could also potentially use Hotel Occupancy Tax monies for the project. HOT is imposed on the rental of a room in a hotel, motel, bed and breakfast that costs $15 or more each day. Both the state and local municipalities can implement a HOT. Guests who stay in Wimberley pay an 11 percent tax per night for a hotel room. That tax includes the state’s 6 percent rate, along with the city’s 5 percent tax. Ferguson said that it is “clearly stated” in HOT laws that a permitted use for funds can be used for directional signage to help lodging guests finds their way around town. “Some members of council express interest in joint funding with HOT funds and the general fund,” Ferguson said. But Ferguson said the project was not cutting any new ground. “This is something that’s done by many communities,” Ferguson said. “For this community, we want the signs to be about Wimberley. We want them to have the Wimberley flavor.”

Destination Education Renovation
Continued from pg. 1 and to try to make both sides cohabitate without conflict,” Ferguson said. Council member Gary Barchfeld said the moratoiurm was a “good idea” and that he liked the approach. Mayor Pro-Tem John White said the moratorium would give everyone the chance to talk about grievances they may have about the ordinance. “Everyone gets a chance to air out, if you wish to call them, grievences,” White said. “We are running off of tax money and have the people here to get that tax money. But by the same token, it’s often said we’re destroying our neighborhoods
(with short term rentals). All of these items will be discussed when we have our meetings.” Robby Walker, who advocated for the moratorium during public comment and during a public hearing on the item, encouraged council to go further than what was published in the public notice on the item. Walker said he would like the city to get “more in-depth” on the situation and talk with local homeowners association presidents, lodging owners and other stakeholders. Walker said there were ways to solve the issue that could be beneficial to everyone.
“Everyone that has a stake in tourism have to have some real sit-down meetings to have a common goal met,” Walker said. But Walker said during public hearing he believed there was “some push to hurry this process.” He advocated for the city to take the full 90 days to solve the issue, as he believed the city had moved “too quickly” on the ordinance in the past. “Ninety days isn’t going to hurt anyone,” Walker said. “Please take 90 days and do your due diligence from start to finish and look at all things that go into the CUPs.”
