Staff Report
___________________________________________________________________________
Meeting date: May 18, 2020
Agenda item: Resolution 2020-05-18-02 of the City of Lakeway, Texas Permitting the Use
and Recognizing the Validity of Certain Electronic Signatures
Background: Chapter 322 of the Texas Business and Commerce Code, also known as
the Texas Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA), allows the City
of Lakeway to use electronic signatures for ordinances, resolutions and
other official records that will be created and/or stored electronically.
Pursuant to the Texas UETA, if a law requires a signature, as the City
Charter does in Section 3.16, that requirement is met if the document
contains an electronic signature. (See Tex. Business and Commerce Code
§ 322.007(d)).
Under the UETA, an electronic signature means an electronic sound,
symbol, or process attached to or logically associated with a record and
executed or adopted by a person with the intent to sign the record. (See §
322.002(8)). Section 322.009(a) states that “[a]n electronic record or
electronic signature is attributable to a person if it was the act of the
person.”
Section 322.007(a) also states that, “a record or signature may not be
denied legal effect or enforceability solely because it is in electronic
form”; and other provisions of the law provide for storage and archiving of
electronic documents and signatures.
In order to provide more flexibility for the Mayor and the ZAPCO chair (who
are the volunteers who generally sign the most documents) to execute
documents that will be stored in electronic form, these provisions permit the
use of an electronic signature. The attached Resolution is an
acknowledgement by Council that electronic signatures may be used, and will
have the same force and effect as an actual physical signature.
Fiscal Impact: None anticipated.
Enclosure(s): Resolution No. 2020-05-18-02

Transactions Act, allows the Lakeway City Council (Council) to use or permit the
use of electronic signatures for certain purposes; and

requires a signature, an electronic record and/or electronic signature satisfies the

WHEREAS, the Council wishes to permit the use of electronic signatures by the Mayor and by
the Chair of the Zoning and Planning Commission on any official documents that
require his or her signature.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE LAKEWAY,

Section 1. The foregoing recitals are incorporated into this Resolution by reference as findings
of fact as if expressly set forth herein.
Section 2. The City Council hereby approves this Resolution and recognizes that an electronic
signature used by the Mayor and the Chair of the Zoning and Planning Commission on any
official document that requires his or her signature are valid.
Section 3. The meeting at which this Resolution was passed was open to the public, and
public notice of the time, place and purpose of said meeting was given as required by the Open
Meetings Act, Texas Government Code, Chapter 551.
PASSED & APPROVED this, the 18th day of May 2020, by the City Council of the City of

Agenda item: Ordinance No. 2020-05-18-01
Background:
Special events can place unique demands on resources or pose danger to public health
and safety without appropriate planning. The attached ordinance enables the City of

An application for a special event permit will be filed with the Assistant City Manager or
their designee. The application will include items such as the anticipated number of
persons expected to attend, city facilities or streets involved, and a description of any
equipment, banners or signage intended to be used.
The ordinance also includes standards for issuance of the permit and an appeal process
should a denial occur. A certificate of insurance showing commercial general liability
coverage, including premises operations, independent contractors, personal injury, and
contractual liability, at a combined single limit of five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000)
per occurrence will be required.
Fiscal Impact:
An application fee to cover administrative costs of processing the permit will be $250.
The applicant will also be required to pay a deposit for costs such as barricading,
policing, sanitation and clean-up expenses prior to the issuance of a permit. A true-up of
costs will occur after the conclusion of the event.
