Good afternoon, it's Thursday, August 9. I'm Elise Randall, and here's your local news from the Austin American-Statesman. Our top story is: The Austin City Council is back today from summer vacation, and has 113 items to address. They’ll call a November election for 5 council seats and the mayor, plus probably add a bond election, and maybe a charter election to the ballot. They’ll set policies for future agreements to grant economic incentives to developers.
