ACTIVE CITY CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS
• Brumlow Avenue Improvements
The Brumlow Ave improvement project will widen approximately 1400 linear feet of
Brumlow by expanding the existing road to five lanes undivided in order to
accommodate the TxDOT construction of dual left turns for SH 26 to north bound
Brumlow. The design is at 100%. A future project, currently unfunded, will widen the
remainder of Brumlow Avenue extending north to the existing roundabout at
Continental Blvd. This project is under construction and anticipated to be completed
Spring 2016.
• Citywide Pavement Rehabilitation (PMA)
The PMA is an on-going program which consists of the major repair and/or
rehabilitation of local streets throughout the City of Southlake to improve pavement
condition and rideability after the completion of neighborhood utility projects. One-
third of the City's streets are surveyed annually with the Pavement Management
Application (PMA) software designed by Stantec, which generates a pavement
quality report. The PMA scores each street on the surface condition of the road
(SDI), the riding quality of pavement (RCI), and the structural adequacy of the
pavement (SAI). These scores are then averaged to calculate the Pavement Quality
Index (PQI)for the roadway. The overall PQI for the City is the average of all the
road's PQIs. The Department has established a minimum overall PQI of 7.8 out of a
possible 10.0. The current score is 8.2.
• FM1938
The FM1938 project involves paving, utility, and drainage improvements along the
existing Randol Mill Road from FM1709 to SH114 to four lanes divided. Construction
of FM1938 will be completed in two phases. Construction of Phase I from the bend in
Randol Mill Road to SH114 through Westlake is complete. The Public Hearing on
the entire project was held November 6, 2008 at the Cross Timbers Community
Church in Keller, TX. Phase II right of way and easement acquisition by Tarrant

WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Southlake, Texas, fmds that secondhand
tobacco smoke is a major contributor to indoor air pollution and that breathing secondhand
smoke (also known as environmental tobacco smoke) is a cause of disease in healthy
nonsmokers, including heart disease, stroke, respiratory disease, and lung cancer, and further
fords as follows:
WHEREAS, the National Cancer Institute in 1999 found that secondhand smoke is
responsible for the early deaths of approximately 53,000 Americans annually. (National Cancer
Institute (NCI), "Health effects of exposure to environmental tobacco smoke: the report of the
California Environmental Protection Agency. Smoking and Tobacco Control Monograph 10,"
Bethesda, MD:National Institutes of Health, National Cancer Institute (NCI),August 1999);
WHEREAS, the Public Health Service's National Toxicology Program (NTP) has listed
secondhand smoke as a known carcinogen. (See Environmental Health Information Service
(EHIS), "Environmental tobacco smoke: first listed in the Ninth Report on Carcinogens," US.
Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), Public Health Service, NTP, 2000;
reaffirmed by the NTP in subsequent reports on carcinogens, 2003,2005);
WHEREAS, based on a fmding by the California Environmental Protection Agency in
2005, the California Air Resources Board has determined that secondhand smoke is a toxic air
contaminant, finding that exposure to secondhand smoke has serious health effects, including
low birth-weight babies; sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS); increased respiratory infections
in children; asthma in children and adults; lung cancer, sinus cancer, and breast cancer in
younger, premenopausal women; heart disease; and death. (Appendix II Findings of the
Scientific Review Panel: Findings of the Scientific Review Panel on Proposed Identification of
Environmental Tobacco Smoke as a Toxic Air Contaminant as adopted at the Panel's June 24,
2005 Meeting," California Air Resources Board(ARB), September 12, 2005);
WHEREAS, there is no safe level of exposure to secondhand smoke, (Environmental

contaminant," Sacramento: California Environmental Protection Agency (Cal-EPA). Air
Resources Board, Stationary Source Division, Air Quality Measures Branch, Office of
Environmental Health Hazard Assessment(OEHHA), September 29, 2005);
WHEREAS, a study of hospital admissions for acute myocardial infarction in Helena,
Montana before, during, and after a local law eliminating smoking in workplaces and public
places was in effect,has determined that laws to enforce smokefree workplaces and public places
may be associated with a reduction in morbidity from heart disease. (Sargent, Richard P.;
Shepard, Robert M.; Glantz, Stanton A., "Reduced incidence of admissions of myocardial
infarction associated with public smoking ban: before and after study," British Medical Journal
328:977-980,April 24, 2004);
WHEREAS, secondhand smoke is particularly hazardous to elderly people, individuals
with cardiovascular disease, and individuals with impaired respiratory function, including
asthmatics and those with obstructive airway disease. (California Environmental Protection
Agency (Cal EPA), "Health effects of exposure to environmental tobacco smoke," Tobacco
Control 6(4):346-353,Winter, 1997);
WHEREAS, the Americans with Disabilities Act, which requires that disabled persons
have access to public places and workplaces, deems impaired respiratory function to be a
disability. (Daynard, R.A., "Environmental tobacco smoke and the Americans with Disabilities
Act,"Nonsmokers' Voice 15(1):8-9.);
WHEREAS, the U.S. Surgeon General has determined that the simple separation of
smokers and nonsmokers within the same air space may reduce, but does not eliminate, the
exposure of nonsmokers to secondhand smoke. (Department of Health and Human Services.
The Heath Consequences of Involuntary Smoking: A Report of the Surgeon General. Public
Health Service, Centers for Disease Control, 1986);
WHEREAS, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have determined that
the risk of acute myocardial infarction and coronary heart disease associated with exposure to
tobacco smoke is non-linear at low doses, increasing rapidly with relatively small doses such as
those received from secondhand smoke or actively smoking one or two cigarettes a day, and has
warned that all patients at increased risk of coronary heart disease or with known coronary artery
disease should avoid all indoor environments that permit smoking. (Pechacek, Terry F.; Babb,
Stephen, "Commentary: How acute and reversible are the cardiovascular risks of secondhand
smoke?" British Medical Journal 328: 980-983,April 24, 2004);
WHEREAS, given the fact that there is no safe level of exposure to secondhand smoke,
the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers (AHRAE) bases
its ventilation standards on totally smokefree environments. ASHRAE has determined that there
is currently no air filtration or other ventilation technology that can completely eliminate all the
carcinogenic components in secondhand smoke and the health risks caused by secondhand
smoke exposure, and recommends that indoor environments be smokefree in their entirety.

the development of acute coronary syndromes: the CARDIO2000 case-control study," Tobacco
Control 11(3):220-225, September 2005);
WHEREAS, the Society of Actuaries has determined that secondhand smoke costs the
U.S. economy roughly $10 billion a year: $5 billion in estimated medical costs associated with
secondhand smoke exposure, and $4.6 billion in lost productivity. (Behan, D.F.; Eriksen, M.P.;
Lin, Y., "Economic Effects of Environmental Tobacco Smoke," Society of Actuaries, March 31,
2005);
WHEREAS, numerous economic analyses examining restaurant and hotel receipts and
controlling for economic variables have shown either no difference or a positive economic
impact after enactment of laws requiring workplaces to be smokefree. Creation of smokefree
workplaces is sound economic policy and provides the maximum level of employee health and
safety. (Glantz, S.A. & Smith, L. The effect of ordinances requiring smokefree restaurants on
restaurant sales in the United States. American Journal of Public Health, 87:1687-1693, 1997;

WHEREAS, hundreds of communities in the U.S., plus numerous states, including
Texas, California, Delaware, Florida, Massachusetts, Montana, New Jersey, New York, and
Washington, have enacted laws requiring workplaces, restaurants, bars, and other public places
to be smokefree, as have numerous countries, including Ireland, New Zealand, Norway,
Scotland, Sweden, Uganda, and Uruguay;
WHEREAS, smoking is a potential cause of fires, cigarette and cigar bums and ash
stains on merchandise and fixtures, and other economic damage to businesses. ("The high price
of cigarette smoking,"Business &Health 15(8), Supplement A: 6-9, August 1997);
WHEREAS, the City Council finds there is no legal or constitutional "right to smoke."
Business owners have no legal or constitutional right to expose their employees and customers to
the toxic chemicals in secondhand smoke. On the contrary, employers have a common law duty
to provide their workers with a workplace that is not unreasonably dangerous;
WHEREAS, the City Council finds the congregation of smokers within 15 feet of the
entrances or exits of buildings in which smoking is prohibited can impair entry into and exit from
these buildings, create noxious clouds of concentrated nuisance smoke that harm the rights of
nonsmoking patrons and passersby, and create a hazard of such concentrated smoke drifting into
the indoor environment; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds the smoking of tobacco is a form of air pollution, a
positive danger to health, and a material public nuisance.
WHEREAS, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends local governments should
enact and enforce laws that mandate the provision of smoke-free environments, including e-
3
cigarette vapor, in all public places and require employers to provide smoke-free/e-cigarette
vapor free work environments for their employees. The City Council does acknowledge that
conclusive scientific research has yet to confirm any dangers associated with e-cigarette vapor.
The City Council additionally acknowledges that e-cigarettes are not tobacco products, and
acknowledges the clear differences between smoke and vapor, and clear differences between
combustion, burning and heating. In the interests of public health, as well as in the interests of
health risk prevention, The City Council desires to include e-cigarettes within this ordinance.
Accordingly, the City Council finds and declares that the purposes of this ordinance are (1) to
protect the public health and welfare by prohibiting smoking in public places and places of
employment, (2) to guarantee the right of nonsmokers to breathe smoke-free air, and (3) to
recognize that the need to breathe smoke-free air shall have priority over the desire to smoke.
