1996-07-16 CC PacketIt City of Southlake, Texas July 12, 1996 TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council FROM: Curtis E. Hawk, City Manager SUBJECT: Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest for City Council Meeting July 16, 1996 1. Note Change in Council Meeting Times, Work Session: 5:00 p.m. Regular Session: 6:00 p.m. call to order, go into executive session Executive Session: 6:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m. Reconvene to Regular Session: 7:00 p.m. 2. City Manager's Report. The financial reports are included in your packet. Please call me or Lou Ann Heath, Finance Director, if you have any questions. As of this writing there has been no additional information concerning our S.H. 114 presentation in Austin last month. 3. Agenda Item No. 3A. Public &1&arance by Regena Turner. "Think A Head Foundation." to discuss a mandated bike he t ordinance, City Secretary Sandy LeGrand has been contacted by Ms. Turner about appearing before the Council at the upcoming meeting. You may have seen press coverage of Ms. Turner's efforts -- she has approached several cities about implementing bike helmet ordinances. Time has been set aside during public forum for Ms. Turner to make her presentation. If it is your desire to move forward with an ordinance, you will simply need to instruct staff to do so. Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest for City Council Meeting July 16 �w July 12, 1996 Page 2 4. Agenda_ Item No. 7A. Second Reading. Ordinance No. 530-A, Animal Control Ordinance. Staff has made the changes suggested by City Council at 1st reading. We changed the definition of a "Kennel" so it simply refers to the definition set out in the Zoning Ordinance. We added language in Section 4.02.(9) to attempt to address the issue of the number of dogs and/or cats which can be kept in places (not operating as a Kennel as defined in the Zoning Ordinance): on property that is less than one acre--four(4) animals; larger than one acre--six(6) animals. Staff did not get a clear indication of the number preferred by City Council, therefore you may wish to select another number as the limit. We also added language in the definition of "dangerous animal" to clarify that the provision applies "in a place other than an enclosure in which the animal was being kept" due to City Council's comment about dogs kept in a fenced yard. Note that City Council needs to set an amount for the appeal bond provided for in Section 7.07(a). Staff believes an amount of fifty dollars. ($50) would not be perceived as an amount too high. We do not want the fee to effectively deny a due process of appeal. 5. Aizenda Item No. 7B. Second Reading. Ordinance No. 644. registration for businesses painting street curb addresses. There are only two(2) changes since first reading: (1) to add the language in Section 4 to provide that the fee shall be set at $10 upon adoption of the ordinance, and as determined by City Council in the Fee Schedule thereafter; (2) to add language in Section 7 to require the statement about the City not endorsing or sponsoring the business to be on the cover of any brochure or other promotional materials soliciting customers, as suggested by Councilmember Harris. Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest for City Council Meeting July 16 July 12, 1996 Page 3 6. Agenda Item No. 7C. Second Reading. Ordinance No. 661. setting meeting times for Regular City Council meetings. There have been no changes since first reading. This ordinance, if approved, would set the times for the regular meetings as required by City Charter. The time will be as set out for this agenda meeting. 7. Agenda Item No. 7D. Second Reading. Ordinance No. 660. creating an offense for violation of promise to appear for ordinance violations. There have been no changes to this ordinance since first reading. The need for this ordinance is succinctly set out in the letter from Debra Drayovitch, City Attorney. Without this ordinance "...there could be consequences adverse to the City if a defendant is arrested for failure to appear..." to answer a citation issued by a city employee for violation of a City ordinance. It is easy to see where this could lead us. Note in Ms. Drayovitch's letter, the reference to Section 1 and the employees who are authorized to issue citations, and the listing of positions. The list should be: the Director of Public Safety or his designee; the Director of Public Works or his designee. Note that this ordinance has been on the waiting list since April. Please call me if you have any questions about this ordinance. 8. Agenda Item No 7E ZA 96-67 Plat Showing, for Lot 2 and Lot 3 William H. Martin No 1068 Addition 2.875 acres located on the east side of Randol Mill Avenue. and currently zoned AG with a requested zoning of SF-1A. There are no unresolved technical issues regarding this application. There is one unique procedural aspect of this plat and the next plat (96-70). Both of these plats were forwarded to City Council without any action by P&Z due to the state requirement requiring action by the approving body within Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest for City Council Meeting July 16 July 12, 1996 Page 4 30 days of submittal of the plat, otherwise it is deemed approved. There is usually a two step process for plats, requiring both P&Z and City Council approval. First, we have 30 days from the submittal date for P&Z to act on the plat, then 30 days from the date of the P&Z action for City Council to act on the plat. In these two cases, P&Z was unable to hold a meeting on June 20 due to lack of a quorum, and they did not meet on July 4 due to the holiday. Thus, we had to forward the plat to City Council for action on this agenda without a recommendation from P&Z. The unusual quirk is that the corresponding zoning for these two properties is still at P&Z and will be heard on July 18. The subdivision ordinance (section 4.01-C) does not allow approval of a plat without adequate zoning in place (see comment no. 14). We have been consistent with this requirement in the past. However, these two situations are unique and the attorneys and staff feel that you could approve these plats (subject to the staff review), noting that this situation is an aberration, much as a variance to the subdivision ordinance, due to unique circumstances. The plats will not be filed at the county until the zonings are approved. If you have any questions regarding the uniqueness of this procedure, please feel free to contact Greg Last at ext. 750. • •. •• 1 • •_ �• t� • Addition. 2.18 acres. located at 650 Randol Mill Avenue at the southwest corner of Florence Road and Randol Mill Avenue. and currently zoned AG with a reauested zonine of SF-30. The same timing issues apply to this plat as discussed in the previous item. There is one other unique aspect on this plat regarding ROW dedication. The required ROW dedications for this plat are fairly significant because of the property's location at the corner of Randol Mill and Florence. The Thoroughfare Plan for Randol Mill shows a 130' future ROW for the extension of FM 1938, however, we only require a dedication sufficient to accommodate an 84' ROW due to our attorney's recommendation that we not mandate dedication of ROW for State regulated thoroughfares. Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest for City Council Meeting July 16 July 12, 1996 Page 5 FYI, the zoning request for this item (at P&Z on 7/18) is for SF-30 due to the fact that both of the proposed lots are less than one acre in size af= the ROW dedication. There is an existing septic system in place on both lots, one with a house and one where the house has been removed, but the septic system is still in place. Typically an applicant would have to go before ZBA to request approval of septic system on a lot less than one acre prior to building, but since both lots have had septic systems for some time, it would seem unreasonable to require them to first go before ZBA. This issue does not impact the approval of the plat but I thought you should know some of the background. If you have any questions, feel free to contact Greg Last (ext 750) or Karen Gandy (ext 743). Plan and Drought Contingency Ordinance. The need for this item is as discussed during the June Retreat and at last City Council meeting. We will give an update on our water situation during the meeting. 11. Aizenda Item No. 8B. Ordinance No. 598-A. 1st Reading. amending Ordinance No. 598. creatine the Southlake Program for the Involvement of Neighborhoods (SPIN). Your packet contains a number of items related to the proposed changes. The redline/strikeout copies of the ordinance and articles are provided to assist you in understanding the changes the Standing Committee would like you to consider. Clean copies are provided so you can easily read the amended document. When the City Council passed the SPIN ordinance in November 1993, little was known about how the program would evolve. The Council had hoped to provide a framework which the SPIN representatives could work within, but leave many of the details of the program's implementation flexible so that the program could be easily implemented in the various SPIN neighborhoods. As you know, circumstances vary from SPIN neighborhood to SPIN neighborhood, and there was concern that creating a rigid structure would inhibit the program's effectiveness. As the program has developed over time, the picture has Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest for City Council Meeting July 16 July 12, 1996 Page 6 become clearer. Experience has provided the Standing Committee with a better understanding of how to operate such a program for the City of Southlake. The SPIN Standing Committee began its work on this project several months ago, identifying potential changes to the ordinance and articles that they felt were needed to clarify the role of the representatives and the structure of the organization. The Standing Committee, in its desire to make changes to the ordinance in one effort, spent considerable time reviewing the provisions of the document and carefully noting all changes that they believed were appropriate. On the surface it may appear that the changes are numerous and substantive; however, much of what is being suggested is designed to document the practices of the Standing Committee and make implementation of the program easier for the representative and the neighborhoods. If you have questions about the proposed changes, feel free to contact Assistant City Manager, Shana Yelverton. Note that Joe Mast will be at the Council meeting to make the presentation to Council on behalf of the Standing Committee. 12. Agenda Item No. 9A. Resolution No. 96-46. anointment of members to a Library Committee. This committee would be charged to make recommendations to City Council as to the following: (1) does the City need a public library? (2) if so, do we pursue our own library, or contract with the City of Grapevine and the City of Colleyville to build a joint library? kAlthough the resolution does not list it, I believe the City Manager or his designee should be an ex-officio member of the Committee. Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest for City Council Meeting July 16 July 12, 1996 Page 7 13. Agenda Item No. 9B. Resolution No. 96-47. in Support of the North Texas Tollway Authority. The North Texas Tollway Coalition has asked for support in the form of a resolution from City Councils in the 4-county area of Collin, Dallas, Denton, and Tarrant Counties. As pointed out in the cover letter from the Coalition, the North Central Texas Council of Government's Regional Transportation Council, the Commissioners Courts of each of the four counties, and numerous City Councils in the 4-county area have passed resolutions in support of the creation of the North Texas Tollway Authority (NTTA). The Issues and Answers handout included in your packet outlines the advantages of the creation of the NTTA. Please let me know if you have any questions on this item prior to the meeting. Wilburn. It is my understanding that the City of Grapevine is supporting Mike Davis, a Colleyville resident, for this position. We will have a resolution ready Tuesday night. In this situation, the Cities of Colleyville, Grapevine, and Southlake together would have enough votes to select the successor to Mac Wilburn, a Grapevine resident. Mr. Davis would ensure that this area would continue to have a voice on the TAD Board. Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this item. 15. Agenda Item No 9D Resolution No 96-49 appointment of City Council Representative to Economic Development Advisory Committee. When the City created our Economic Development Coordinator staff position in 1994, the old Southlake Economic Development Commission was deactivated. The SEDC was an advisory commission with members appointed by the City Council, Carroll I.S.D. Board, and the Chamber of Commerce to Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest for City Council Meeting July 16 July 12, 1996 Page 8 work with the City and Chamber on economic development issues. The City contracted with the Chamber of Commerce to have the Chamber Executive Director serve as a part- time economic development coordinator. With the authorization of a full-time staff person and the creation of the Office of Economic Development under the General Government Department, I requested that City Council appoint an advisory committee to work with staff, to consist of members from the private sector and the City Council. Because of the experience of Maguire Thomas Partners and Mobil Land Development in economic development, Richard Kulhman of MTP and Rick Croteau were appointed. Rick Wilhelm was appointed because of his previous involvement with the SEDC and his economic development legal background. Michael Richarme was the representative from City Council due to his interest and background in marketing. Mayor Stacy has indicated that he would be willing to serve as a member of the Committee. His appointment would fill the 4th of 5 spots on the committee. The other member would be selected at another meeting. NEW which limits the number of zoning = cations. The P&Z Commission's agenda for July 18, 1996 has twenty-three (23) items for their consideration. This lengthy agenda is due to the Commission being unable to convene their June 20 and July 4 meetings due to lack of a quorum and the national holiday, respectively. All items from the June 20 agenda (except the plats) were continued to this meeting in addition to the new cases scheduled for this date as well. Mayor Stacy and Councilmember Fawks have raised the issue that the Commission may not be able to consider all the items before them due to Case Limitation Resolution No. 95-24 and that this could again inconvenience the applicants. If you recall, this resolution Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest for City Council Meeting July 16 July 12, 1996 Page 9 was adopted so that the citizens of Southlake would not have to be in attendance after midnight in order to be able to participate in the public hearing process on zoning and other development related cases. However, due to the unusual circumstances leading up to this agenda, the City Council may wish to grant an exception to the resolution so that the Commission can complete their agenda in one evening. ground storage tanks at Pearson and FM 1709. The memo from Bob Whitehead, Director of Public Works, explains the issues relating to the tanks. As Bob points out in his memo, due to our time constraints and the need to have the first tank on-line and in operation by next summer, we are fast -tracking the overall project by serving as our general contractor and awarding various subcontracts. The first contract will be the 5-million gallon storage tank now before you for consideration. There are several critical factors at play. Most obvious is the timing, which we have discussed previously with City Council. Another is the amount of available funds. When we set the estimated budget for these tanks several years ago, we estimated the cost of the tanks and amount of land required and the City issued $2.5 million. Of this, approximately $75,000 was for land purchase. This was with the belief that the tanks would probably be constructed on property next to the Keller ground storage tanks, but if not, in the general area on just enough land adequate for the site. Due to the problems the City Council encountered over the last year concerning the site, the City Council authorized the purchase of the entire 16-acre site for $1,010,109. There currently remains only $1.5 million in the fund account for this project. This means that additional debt must be issued in order to complete the project. On Wednesday evening, July 10, 1996, a meeting was held at City Hall with the majority of property owners in Cimmarron Acres. In attendance were Mayor Stacy, Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest for City Council Meeting July 16 July 12, 1996 Page 10 Councilmembers Martin and Harris, Public Works Director Whitehead, Design Engineer Eddie Cheatham, and me. Based upon the discussion, staff is preparing an alternative site plan which would be adjacent to Southlake Blvd., in an east -west axis, and approximately mid -way in the City's property. Staff will have a comparison of costs and other factors for the water storage facility at the west end of the property (as currently planned) for City Council at the meeting Tuesday night; the east end of the property; and a site in the middle of the property. Other factors, to be considered besides costs are time of constructing the facility and viable uses of the remaining City property. Preliminary estimates for "turn -key" job at each site are $2,650,000 at the western corner site as planned, $3,215,000 at the eastern end, and $2,731,000 at the center site. This is if the low bidder will stay with the bid if the tanks are moved. (This is important because of the good bid we received for the steel tank.) Staff will also have prepared "renderings" of a steel tank with a steel column design as suggested by the steel tank builder and a painted arch design. The cost of each of these treatments will be presented. We would like to have more complete estimates as of this writing, but we just ran out of time. Also, the bidder is out of town and will not return until Monday. If we have complete estimates by Monday evening we will either hand deliver them to your home or fax them to you Tuesday morning. 18. Agenda Item No. 10C. Variance to Sign Ordinance No. 506-A. Request for Readerboard Sign for Primrose School. 155 South Kimball Avenue. Primrose School is requesting a variance to the sign ordinance in order to get a "readerboard" on a monument sign. As pointed out in the memo from Ron Harper and included in the backup material, there have been seven (7) variances for readerboards since the Sign Ordinance was adopted in March, 1995, including the one at Bicentennial Park constructed by the City. The request before Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest for City Council Meeting July 16 July 12, 1996 Page 11 you is the second this month, and a third applicant this month is discussing a variance with Chuck Bloomburg, Plans Examiner. City Council may want to consider giving staff direction to modifying the sign ordinance to allow readerboard or monument signs without a need for a variance, with parameters identified. This would save staff and City Council valuable time. Article 2.05. Home Rule Charter for the City. Discussion of policy for reimbursement of Council expenses is on the agenda at the request of Mayor Stacy. OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST 20. Thoroughfare Plan Update. On Thursday, July 11, Community Development staff briefed the P&Z Commission on the status of the Master Thoroughfare Plan (MTP) update. Additional information on future meetings will be forwarded as it becomes available. Please feel free to contact Tom Elgin (ext 753) if you have questions on the MTP update. 21. A change coming in Police Vehicles. In case you missed it, note the news article clipped from the Saturday, July 6 Star -Telegram concerning the trend toward the use of sport utility vehicles as police vehicles. Expect a proposal by Billy Campbell, Director of Public Safety, to add these to his fleet as replacement vehicles in his FY96-97 budget requests. There are a number of reasons, but primarily they fill a need and cost no more, perhaps less, than the traditional police sedan/cruiser. We need to have several in place before the TMS opens in April (in anticipation of a need to facilitate crossing the S.H. 114 Lmedian at various locations). Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest for City Council Meeting July 16 July 12, 1996 Page 12 22. TMS Race Day Announced. The first NASCAR events at the Texas Motor Speedway have been scheduled for April 5th and 6th, 1997. That is only 9 months away!! The Saturday April 5 race --the 300-mile Busch Grand National --is expected to draw 100,000 fans. The Sunday April 6 race --the Texas 500 (Winston Cup Series) --is expected to draw 200,000 fans. See the news clippings attached to my memo. 23. Crime Control and Prevention District Act Information - Attached you will find information prepared by City of Arlington staff related to the Crime Control and Prevention District Act. This review succinctly describes the Act, its provisions, potential uses of the funds generated for the District, perceptions of the advantages and disadvantages of this approach for funding public safety initiatives through this method, LW and information related to cities in Tarrant County that have formed districts. We have not discussed this, so I have no way of knowing how you feel about this concept, but I wanted to bring these details to your attention. If the City of Southlake established such a district, we could look at a 'h cent (yielding approximately $670,000 per year based on projected receipts for 1996-97) or 1/4 cent (yielding approximately $335,000). 24. Randol Mill Road Reconstruction Update - Randol Mill Road reconstruction will begin about July 17, 1996. The sewer line coming out of Meyers Meadow, going over to Hillside Ct. will be the first part of the project to start. Second phase includes lowering the hill at Kingswood. The project has an estimated 120 day completion time. 25. 1112goming SPIN Meetings - SPIN representatives are planning two citywide meetings, to provide residents the opportunity to learn more about the proposed redevelopment of the Food Lion store (Crossroads Square) and the proposed development of the Goode Airport (6w and adjacent property. The flyer which is being sent to residents is enclosed for your information.

See the attached memo from Bob Whitehead regarding the public road testing to begin in the Bent Creek Addition of Timarron. 27. Joint Use Committee recommendations. The Joint Use Committee met Tuesday evening, July 9, to discuss future joint use projects and the current projects. In preparation for the continuation of the Joint COS/CISD meeting on Thursday, July 18, the JUC has requested that the individual members of the Park Board, City Council, and CISD Board list all the possible uses that could be placed on a multi -use recreational complex at one large site location in the City, such site to be determined later, and give their individual lists to either the City Manager's Office or the Superintendent's office prior to Wednesday, July 17 if possible. (r The advantages of a multi -use complex would be many, such as the economy of scale or major capital expenses such as parking lots, etc., plus many other obvious benefits. What benefits can you think of, other than the obvious joint utilization benefits? What kind of uses would you envision at a multi -use facility, e.g., tennis center, aquatic complex, football/track field, activities center? In preparation for the joint meeting, and the next JUC meeting, please give thought to what each of you individually would place in such a list. 28. Metroport Bylaws. Several of you have asked questions about the Metroport Cities Partnership. Attached FYI is a copy of the Metroport Bylaws. Please let me know if you have any questions. 29.

For more information, call Betty Springer 817-481-7082 NEWS CLIPPM �M Source: Date: Water conservation is a major summertime issue by Donna Stengle Southlake officials are hoping that residents will voluntarily co- operate with the city's water con- servation plan before mandatory measures become necessary. Recent hot weather, including a week of temperatures over 100 degrees, coupled with the lack of rainfall in the area led the City Council to request that a water conservation and drought contin- gency ordinance be drawn up by the city staff. Southlake's water tank levels have been dropping because of record water use during peak pe- riods. The water lei els in the tanks are reaching levels which could be dangerous in an emer- gency situation. ..People are using it faster than we can pump," said Shana Yel- verton, assistant city manager. Bob Whitehead, director of public works, wants to reassure the community that adequate wa- ter is available but should not.be used by everyone at the same time. In an effort to ease the burden on the water supply during peak periods, the water conservation plan calls for odd/even watering days. Residents with odd -num- bered street addresses should water their lawns on odd -num- bered calendar days. Residents with even -numbered street ad- dresses should only water their lawns on even -numbered calen- dar days. Additionally, the city is asking residents to only water outdoors between 4 and 3 a.m., when the soil can absorb the moisture bet- ter. Activities such as washing cars and windows, filling swim- ming pools, or watering athletic fields or golf courses should also follow the odd/even schedule.

City Asks Residents To Adopt Water Conservation Plan The City of Southlake is ask- ing residents, home owners asso- ciations, and developers to voluntarily reduce their water us- age in an effort to keep water stor- age tanks at proper levels, city officials said. A record amount of water us- age was reported recently, due to the excessive heat and dryness, causing water storage tanks to drop below the acceptable levels during peak hours, and the city is asking that the following conservation steps be taken until further notice. - Residents with odd -numbered street addresses should water lawns on odd -numbered calendar days; even -numbered addresses/even:- numbered days. - Outdoor watering should be done between 4 and 8am. - Other activities that should be done on odd/even numbered calen- dar days: car washing, window washing, pavement washing, fill- ing swimming pools, and athletic field/golf course watering. Bob Whitehead, Director of Public Works, suggests that by watering every other day and early in the morning, demand on the city's water supply at peak times will be reduced. "We want to reas- sure the community that water is available, just not to everyone at the same time," Whitehead said. The city will be informing the community of the conservation plan through broadcast on Harron Cablevision's channel 25, the city's government access channel; addi- tionally, brochures will be distrib- uted to SPIN leaders who will be responsible for informing their SPIN neighborhood. "We are hoping these voluntary efforts return the water levels to normal," said City Manager Curtis Hawk. "But i4 not, a mandatory water conservation program will probably be necessary." NEWS CLIPMG mo vin ftm& to back C.0,om6g [IV Kendall Andersen gaff writer of The Dallas lloraia11.ven The Bedford City Council unanimously passed a resolution Tuesday that supports diverting $7 million in state money for FM1S7 improvements to the proposed State Highway 114 project. Transportation officials warn that the result of the move could be much differ- ent: If FM1S7 funds are canceled, the chances of the S7 million going to the proposed 114 project are slim, they say. "if the money went back to the state, it would go to a project that's a higher prior- ity;' said Henry Wilson. chairman of the Regional Transportation Council_ which Money would be d' "There are higher priorities than 114." The Texas Department of Transporta- tion office in Fort Worth said a municipal- ity cannot choose to divert funds from a project without the approval of the High- way Commission. If 157 were canceled, it's very unlikely the money could be used for 114; said Bill Page, spokesman for the state transporta- tion agency. Mr. Page and Mr. Wilson said it's un- likely that the state would cancel the 1S7 project because it's so close to construc- tion and because more than one munici- . i:,., i. i—mved Design work is under averted from FM151 way and environmental studies have been completed for the 157 expansion.

Euless officials are upset by Bedford's resolution. project, which was approved by the state about two years ago. Still, Bedford Mayor Rick Hurt said he felt it necessary to pass the resolution.

The mayors of Euless and North Rich, land Hills expressed concern recentl' that the proposed 114 project might hur, Please see COUNCIL on Page 6N. - o"Jet' - Council backs moving highway project funds Continued from Page 1N. other projects in northeast Tarrant County. Mr. Hurt said he understands those concerns. He also acknowl- edges that Bedford is affected more immediately by FM157 than 114. But he said he wants his city and others in northeast Tarrant County to think more regionally and be less "territorial." "It's time for us to quit thinking in terms of our corporate boundar- ies," he said. Since Euless began pushing for state funding of 157 some years ago, Bedford has had a different per- spective. The difference is apparent in the zoning along 157, which forms Bedford's eastern border and runs through the heart of Euless. On Euless' side, most of the land is zoned commercial. On Bedford's side of 157 at Harwood Road, land that was zoned commercial was changed to residential around the time Bedford homeowners spoke out against the widening of 157. Mr. Hurt said he did not propose the resolution to divert funds from 157 to satisfy those homeowners, who reside in the Rustic Woods sub- division. Bedford council member Becky Grein has said that is one of the reasons she supported the reso- lution. Traffic counts along both 114 and 157 are high. About 17,000 vehi- cles travel along 157 between Air- port Freeway and 121, according to state transportation officials. About 60,000 vehicles travel along some of the busiest portions of 114, they have said. The state Highway Commission has the ultimate authority to cancel projects. Bedford's resolution requesting the diversion of money from one project to the other "is probably not going to do anything," said Mr. Wil- son.

In nearby Flower Mound, a water conservation ordinance has been in effect since May 1. Flower Mound engineer Steve Gilbreath said water levels are steady, al- though the eity's system is being stretched to the limit. "We go through this anxiety pe- riod every summer," Gilbreath said. "It's hard to tell how much of it is attributed to growth and how much to the weather. We just sit and watch the water levels and hold our breath, but we think things have topped out and leveled off now. That's why nothing else is planned." Keller and Southlake officials said they are hoping that their resi- dents will respond to pleas to con- serve water. If the voluntary efforts do not lessen the pressure on the water system, "a mandatory water con- servation program will probably be necessary," Southlake City Man- ager Curtis Hawk said, According to a mandatory water conservation ordinance, city resi- dents can be ticketed for watering their yards on the wrong day. Southlake resident Karen Mul- der said the city should do what is necessary to conserve water. "We're not watering all that much anyway," Mulder said. -We've just kind of felt like it has been so hot, there was no reason to water that much.

"Most of the roads in Texas though are made of material that will only melt at higher temperatures. If it bleeds, it's usually because a lack of rock." Stan Yeats, president of Yeats Contracting Co., said older streets take the biggest punishment when it gets above 100 degrees.

Shirmer said lawns should be wa- tered three or four times per week for 30 to 40 minutes between 4 and 6 a.m. "If you water in the middle of the afternoon, half of the water is going to evaporate before it hits the round and the rest doesn't have time to seep into the soil," he said.

Airpark Estates, in which the Lease's and 3 other families re- side, is owned by Goode and w as platted in 1978 for 9 lots with sizes ranging from about 3 to 5 acres each; since 1978 Goode has sold 4 of those 9,including one to Lease. The landowners in the 32.5- acre development, located west of Peytonville iust south of Carroll High School, are bound by deed restricuons established years ago by R.H. Goode, who currently Owns the largest number of !ors in Airpark Estates. Goode, .vhp also owns Goode Airport, which lies adjacent to Airpark Estates, is bound by those same restric- tions, according to an attorney from whom Mike Lease has sought legal advice. Goode, who is seeking to de- velop both his airport property and Airpark Estates into a com- bined 103-acre residential devel- opment, has proposed to the other landowners in Airpark Estates hat they release their deed re- strictions and allow him to pro- -eed with the development.

Goode's at- torney phoned Lease and offered to cease the strict enforcement of re- strictions ;f he signed a waiver re- leasing Goode from the restrictions. R.H.

The resident said that previously he was given verbal notice of approval or disapproval of any intended im- provements. Lease, who bought his 5-acre lot in 1990, says he was attracted to the surrounding large "ranchettes", and the low density of develop- ment. He says he is not opposed to the development of the airport property that Goode wishes to de- velop, but is opposed to the alter- ing of the original plats in Airpark Estates, and to the proposed main entrance that would be located very close to his property. Lease removed the structures un June io, Father's Day, with the help of some neighbors and friends; the playhouse he was building for his daughter was placed on the property of a neighbor where iii daughter Nicole will have acc_ss to it. He has since sent a formal application to the deed's archi- tectural committee regarding the fence, and intends to file a sepa- rate application for the play- house. Goode will appear before the Planning & Zoning Commission (P&Z) July 18 with his develop- ment proposal. Lease stated that he and others supporting him will be there as well; he intends to deliver an outline of the deed restrictions and other pertinent information to P&Z members to ensure that they are fully apprised of the situation.

Carrie Fullington will coordi- nate efforts in crime prevention and also be a liaison between po- lice and victims of domestic vio- lence, child abuse and drug abuse. She will be available to help vic- tims through the criminal justice system and to follow up with them to see that they receive counseling and education as needed. "It is difficult sometimes for victims to get through a very com- plex system." Fullington said. "A lot of times they are forgotten and their issues are not addressed. With this position, we are going to ensure that crime victims' needs are met." Fullington has only been in the department three weeks and has already provided assistance to a victim of domestic violence.

Last summer, the city asked SPIN committees for input on Neighborhood streets was one area that was identified.

"THINK A HEA 6 " FOUNDATION P.O. BOX 4 8 4 5 7 W A T A U G A, TEXAS 76148 Forlmmediate Release A MESSAGE TO "THINK A HEAD" HITS AIRWAVES Watauga, Texas — November 21, 1995 — A message to "Think A Head" permeated the airwaves this past Sunday during both broadcasts of North Texas Perspective as Regena Turner, President and Founder of The Randall "Think A Head" Foundation, emphasized the importance of bicycle helmet safety. It is estimated that within the twenty four minutes it took to air the featured segment, nearly a hundred Americans sustained a traumatic brain injury. This staggering statistic became a starting reality to Turner and her family months ashen her son fourteen year old son, Randall Wilson, sustained a traumatic brain injury as a result of a bicycle accident. Randall was not wearing his helmet. The mission of the Watauga based foundation is to spread the word about helmet safety and the prevention of head injuries with the help of programs such as North Texas Perspective. Turner has worked closely with several state and local agencies such as the Texas Bicycle Coalition, Fort Worth Rehabilitation Hospital, and the Texas Office of Disabilities Prevention, advocating the bicycle helmet safety. A local ordinance will be presented to the City of Watauga on this issue Monday, November 27, 1995 at 6:30pm. With such mounting grass root support, The Randall "Think A Head" Foundation will be able to continue its rally for bicycle helmet safety to the Texas State Legislature next session in support of a bill appropriately titled, "Randall's Law". For more information on The Randall "Think A Head" Foundation, bicycle helmet safety, or TBI prevention, please contact Regena Turner at (817) 577-2665.

Shortly after this meeting, the City experienced a situation which would have been classified as a "moderate" condition of a drought. This reemphasizes the need to have a plan in place. Even with the recent rains and moderation of temperatures, a plan needs to be in place so that action can be taken as appropriate. The Ordinance provided herein has been submitted to the City Attorney for review and comment. COAEUENTS: Staffs recommendation is for the first reading of Ordinance No. 662, Water Conservation Plan and Drought Contingency Ordinance, to be placed on the July 16, 1996 Regular City Council A for City Council review and consideration.

Education and Information The City will promote water conservation by informing the public of methods to conserve water. The overall public education will be divided into three segments: a first -year program, a long-term program, and a new customer program. Information presented in Appendix B will be the basis for public education as well as pre-printed brochures available through the Texas Water Development Board, the American Water Works Association, and other appropriate sources. First -Year Program The first -year program will include the distribution of educational materials including brochures and/or newsletters to all customers four times (once each quarter). The first information to be distributed will explain the water conservation program. This initial distribution will be accompanied by a newspaper feature article. Subsequent news releases during the first year will correspond to information distribution times and at other times if conditions warrant. The educational materials and news releases will promote water conservation by informing water users about ways to save water inside homes, in landscaping and lawn uses, and in recreational uses. The water conservation methods to be emphasized by the City will include: • Bathroom water saving hints • Kitchen water saving hints • Laundry water saving hints • Appliance and plumbing practices • Outdoor water conservation The water conservation plan will be distributed to water users by mail. In addition to newspaper articles and broadcast on the City's cable channel, other means of communication will be considered (such as posters and public displays) if conditions warrant. Long -Term Program The long-term program will include semi-annual distribution of educational materials and news releases corresponding to peak summer and winter demand periods. The news releases will be used to provide information on water conserving practices, encourage water conservation and report progress on achieving the City's water conservation goal. 8A-4 Additionally, water conservation will be stressed during visits at area schools when the City participates in National Public Works Week in late Spring. Other news releases may be used if conditions warrant. New Customer Program New customers will receive the initial conservation education material that describes the conservation program and other general conservation information when they apply for service. These customers will then be included in the first -year or long-term as appropriate. B. Water Conserving Landscaping In order to reduce the demands placed on a water system by landscape watering, the City, through its respective education and information programs, shall encourage customers and local landscaping companies and irrigation practices by the following methods: 1. Encourage home owners and landscape architects/contractors to use low water plants and grasses and efficient irrigation systems. 2. Request public organizations and commercial establishments to discontinue irrigation practices between the hours of 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. („ 3. Encourage irrigation contractors and commercial establishments to use drip irrigation systems when possible and to design all irrigation systems with water conservation features, such as large drop rather than fine mist sprinklers. 4. Encourage local nurseries and other businesses to offer adapted, low water using plants and grasses and efficient landscape watering devices. C. Leak Detection and Repair The City will continue its ongoing leak detection, location and repair programs. Waterline leaks are detected by utility personnel while reading meters, maintaining their water and wastewater systems, and while performing other routine surveillance programs. Additionally, water audits shall be utilized to determine if leaks exist which have gone undetected. D. Implementation and Enforcement Generally, the City will provide overall guidance and assistance to the customer in the implementation of this plan. Specifically, the City will provide public education/information services to the customer and be responsible for the submission of an annual report to the Texas Water Development Board which will include the following information: 8A-5 1. Progress made in the implementation of the program. 2. Public information which has been distributed. 3. Public response to the program. 4. Effectiveness of the program. The City shall be responsible for the implementation and enforcement of the specific water conserving activities contained within the Plan and for reporting an evaluation to the Texas Water Development Board on the effectiveness of the program. This implementation and enforcement will be in accordance with the respective ordinances or resolutions as adopted by the City. DROUGHT CONTINGENCY PLAN A. Trigger Conditions The initiation of drought contingency measures by the City of Southlake must inherently be determined on a case -by -case basis with consideration given to weather conditions, time of year, prevailing system capacities, and prevailing contractual arrangements with supplier(s).

Mild Conditions - Daily water demand reaches or exceeds 75% of the production capacity of the system for 5 consecutive days. Declaration made by City Manager. 2. Moderate Conditions - Daily water demand reaches or exceeds 85% of the production capacity of the system for 5 consecutive days. Declaration made by City Manager. 3. Severe Conditions - Daily water demand reaches or exceeds 95% of the production capacity of the system for 5 consecutive days; or the imminent or actual failure of a major component of the system is experienced which can cause an immediate health or safety hazard. Declaration made by the Mayor. 4. Critical Emergency Condition - Due to natural or other disaster, the water supply is not dependable and may not be suitable for human consumption.

In this condition water use will be limited, and water should be boiled prior to use (other than fire suppression) to ensure purity. C. Information and Education The purpose of drought contingency measures as a part of this Plan will be conveyed to the public as part of and in the same manner as the Water Conservation Plan. When trigger conditions appear to be approaching, the public will be informed through local newspaper articles and/or radio/television broadcasts. Throughout the period of a trigger condition, regular articles broadcasts will be used to inform the public of the current condition and conservation measures for the condition. D. Termination of Trigger Conditions As drought or emergency conditions lessen, a determination will be made when a ,,, particular drought condition no longer exists. Upon such determination, the drought measures for and enforcement of that particular drought condition shall terminate. The public will be notified of the termination of any or all drought conditions and related drought measures in the same manner as described in C above. IM E. Implementation and Enforcement The Drought Contingency Plan shall be implemented and enforced by ordinance or resolution of the City of Southlake. G. Update of Trigger Conditions Annually, or upon any significant change in water supply or production capability the City shall review the water system capabilities in order to determine actual trigger conditions based upon the guidelines described in Section III. A. of this Plan. 8A-8 ATTACHMENT "B" Action Plan on Education and Information The public education process will consist of the following programs: 1. A pamphlet ("Homeowners Guide to Water Use and Water Conservation") will be distributed by mail using preprinted labels at a date yet to be decided.

Iib -r.L\ Page 6 EXHIBIT # 1 A&L 4 Southlake Program for the Involvement of Neighborhoods (SPIN) C(Dd(c (Df Conduct SOUTHLAKE PROGRMNI FOR THE INVOLVEMENT OF NEIGHBORHOODS Code of Conduct The purpose of the Southlake Program for the Involvement of Neighborhoods (SPIN) is to foster two-way communication between the City and its citizens. Broad based participation in neighborhood issues and projects is an important element of the SPIN program. SPIN Standing Committee members have been chosen by neighborhood residents and sanctioned by the Southlake City Council to serve as representatives of the SPIN program, in addition to serving as leaders in their respective neighborhoods. Standing Committee representatives are responsible for directing and promoting the SPIN program. The role of the Standing Committee representative includes, but is not limited to, assisting the neighborhood by facilitating communication between City officials and the neighborhood, clarifying issues, and encouraging participation in the local government process. It is a privilege to serve the City of Southlake as a SPIN Standing Committee representative and each should make every effort to fulfill the obligations of the selection. The highest standards of integrity, impartiality, and professional competence are expected from Standing Committee representatives. The importance of neutrality cannot be overemphasized in regard to maintaining credibility as a Standing Committee representative for the neighborhood. As such, SPIN Standing Committee representatives have .a continuing duty to disclose anything that may affect, or might appear to affect their ability to be an impartial leader of their SPIN neighborhood. Standing Committee representatives should be committed to representing all parties as necessary. The purpose of this Code of Conduct is to define the high standards expected of Standing Committee representatives. These standards will ensure public confidence in the SPIN program. The guidelines represent a standard of behavior for SPIN leaders, and it is expected that this Code shall also help to guide the official behavior of other Neighborhood Council members. This Code is not intended to address every situation which may arise in the conduct of SPIN program business, rather, it is envisioned that SPIN participants will rely on the ideals embodied in this Code to lead them through issues concerning conflicts of interest and ethical behavior. 1. Process A 4127195 1.1 Standing Committee representatives shall ensure that their respective Neighborhood Councils are open to all individuals and organizations within the defined boundaries of the neighborhood and not be limited by age, race, creed, color, M1 a gender, national origin, income, cr home ownership. Any form of discrimination by a SPIN member against any party on the basis of characteristic, condition, preference, belief or status of such party conflicts with the purpose of SPIN, and shall not be practiced, condoned, or facilitated by Standing Committee representatives. 1.2 The Standing Committee representative, in his or her role as Neighborhood Council Chair, shall create an environment conducive to the expression of ideas by any neighbor wishing to be involved in the Program. It is hoped that SPIN will be a forum for encouraging open and honest discussion of issues, which would include differing viewpoints. 1.3 Standing Committee representatives should conduct neighborhood meetings in sufficient frequency to provide an coporamity for neighbors to be well informed of events, issues and activities. Standing Committee representatives shall make sure that minutes of all meetings are maintained in accordance with City Ordinance 598. In addition to neighborhood meetings, Standing Committee representatives should make diligent effort to ensure that their neighbors are made aware of SPIN activities and projects. 1.4 Standing Committee representatives shall transmit both recommendations and dissenting views proposed by par(-cular neighborhoods on given issues to City officials. It is important that all viewpoints be considered on a particular issue. 1.5 Standing Committee representatives should participate in Standing Committee activities. 1.6 Should a Standing Committee representative -be found in violation of this Code and refuse to accept the decision of the majority of Committee members reviewing the violation, by either withdrawing from the Standing Committee or correcting said violation, the case shall then be referred to the City Council for action. 2. Professionalism 4127195 2.1 To effectively serve, Standing Committee representatives should take every opportunity to educate themse!%. -!s about the operations of the municipal organization and current events within the City so that they may provide accurate information to their neighborhood. '�% (b - 9. L� 2.2 Standing Committee representatives should promote mutual respect among all -AW parties involved in the program, including, but not limited to, other Standing Committee representatives, Neighborhood Council representatives, City staff, and elected officials. Standing Committee representatives and other SPIN participants should always exercise decorum, discretion, patience, restraint, and consideration of others time during Standing Committee and Neighborhood Council meetings. 2.3 Standing Committee representatives shall represent facts or circumstances as accurately as possible in the course of either providing information from the City to their neighborhoods, or in reporting information from their neighborhoods to the City. 2.4 Standing Committee representatives shall not use their influence as SPIN representatives to influence the electoral process. A SPIN Standing Committee representative shall never coerce, make a decision for, or impose his or her own judgement on neighbors. Although Standing Committee representatives may, as individuals and citizens of the City of Southlake, exercise their right to support or oppose candidates, it is inappropriate to use their position with SPIN as a political tool. Standing Committee representatives must maintain electoral neutrality and remain nonpartisan in regard to all candidates running for public office or ballot issues when performing functions in their official role. 2.5 When serving in an official capacity, Standing Committee representatives shall not offer any type of personal or professional opinions as an official representative of SPIN. 2.6 Standing Committee representatives should withdraw from the Standing Committee if they feel they can no longer maintain the impartiality needed to effectively serve as representatives of their neighborhoods. 2.7 Standing Committee representatives shall not accept any type of financial remuneration, direct or indirect, as an incentive to promote or support a particular political or commercial issue. c: lwpfilesltpinl code 4127195 TO: lJIty V1 ODUU IfanQ, IGra.7 MEMORANDUM July 12, 1996 Curtis E.

Denton County SUBJECT: Resolution of Support for North Texas Tolllway Authority The Honorable Tom Vandergriff. Tarrant County Enclosed is a fact sheet along with a sample resolution explaining and endorsing the proposal to establish a regional tollway authority for the DFW metropolitan area. The question of who builds tollways in Texas is shaping up as a big issue for the'97 legislative session. The basic options are: L (1) Maintain the status quo, (2) Merge the Texas Turnpike Authority (TTA) into the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), or (3) Establish a new North Texas Tollway Authority (NTTA), transfer the TTA to the NTTA, and give TxDOT authority for tollways outside DFW and Houston. The Regional Transportation Council (NCTCOG); the commissioners courts of Collin, Dallas, Denton and Tarrant counties; and numerous DFW area city councils and chambers of commerce have determined that option (3) is most advantageous to our region. Option (1) is generally viewed as an acceptable compromise or fall -back position. In 1991 the Legislature declared its intent to implement option (2) in 1997, and last April the Sunset Advisory Commission staff issued a report supporting option (2). The Sunset Advisory Commission is scheduled to adopt a position in late August to recommend to th—Legislature. 'We are urging city councils to pass a resolution (sample eat k*ed) endorsing option (3). Please support this effort and send us a copy of your resolution before August if possible. if you have any Asti=, please call Vw Sulm, at metro 2141621-04M extension 118.

TTA is a state agency based in Dallas, established by the Legislature in 1953. Its first project was the Dallas -Fort Worth Turnpike, which is now IH-30. TTA currently operates two projects: the Mountain Creek Lake Bridge and the Dallas North Tollway (DNT). The President George Bush Turnpike (SH-190T) and the Addison Airport Tunnel are being built now as extensions of the DNT. The TTA has 235 employees and a $14 million annual budget, funded exclusively from toll revenues. Harris County formed its toll authority in 1983 as a means of responding directly and quickly to its rising roadway congestion problem. Since then the Harris County Toll Road Authority has built 50 miles of tollways in the Houston metropolitan area and plans to construct an additional 32 miles. TTA has studied the feasibility of toll roads outside of the Dallas -Fort Worth region but has built none except for the Houston Ship Channel Bridge, which was transferred to the Harris County Toll Authority in 1994. TTA currently is considering or performing feasibility studies for 12 potential tollway projects--6 within and 6 outside the DFW metropolitan area. What's wrong with the status quo -- why consider TTA changes now? TTA has been very effective over the past 43 years in responding to the needs of North Texas communities and in building and operating successful projects, but there is now growing pressure to broaden the TTA focus beyond North Texas and to merge TTA with TxDOT. ♦ Increased interest in looking to toll revenues to finance all or part of feasible roadway projects arises from the declining ability of traditional funding sources (motor vehicle fuel tax and registration fee) to meet the State's transportation needs -- TxDOT is now able to fund only about 40% of its project development needs. • When a major tollway project in Austin, San Antonio or elsewhere in Texas is initiated in the near future, there will be even greater pressure for an Austin - based tollway development authority within or closely aligned with TxDOT. ♦ The Legislature in 1991 declared its intention to consolidate TTA within TxDOT on September 1, 1997. ♦ Both TTA and TxDOT are currently undergoing Sunset review. 2 of 6 • The Sunset Advisory Commission staff issued a report in April, 1996 stating that a separate agency to develop toll roads is not needed and recommending that the Legislature consolidate the functions of TTA within TxDOT. The Commission itself has not yet stated a position on the issue --it should do so the last week of August, 1996. • TxDOT wants authority for bonding and tolling as a means of meeting Texas' transportation needs and sees a merger with TTA as the method to obtain this additional authority. What are the probable implications of TTA merging with TxDOT? A TTA merger with TxDOT without a simultaneous creation of a North Texas Tollway Authority to operate the existing TTA projects and to develop additional North Texas toll roads has several probable implications, which have negative consequences for the Dallas -Fort Worth metropolitan area: • toll road' decision -making moving from Dallas to Austin • reduced access to key officials • decreased responsiveness to North Texas mobility needs • longer project development time periods and possibly 9 project higher costs • increased likelihood of efforts to divert revenues from tolls paid by North Texas motorists to develop toll roads outside the Dallas -Fort Worth region Is the main objection to TTA consolidation within TxDOT that Dallas North Tollway reserve funds will be redistributed around Texas? No. The proposed TTA-TxDOT merger would mean a loss of regional influence as the final authority for North Texas toll projects would be moved from Dallas to Austin but it would not necessarily change the use of bond funds which are committed to each toll project by the bond covenants. Although the use of funds might not be changed initially, it would open the door for future pressures to change the laws or future bond agreements to allow transfer of funds. Why create a North Texas Tollway Authority in 19977 • In light of the current Sunset review of TTA and TxDOT and TxDOT's desire to obtain bonding/tolling authority, the 1997 legislative session may be the opportune time to negotiate a permanent resolution of the issue that will protect the independence of the North Texas projects while transferring to Austin the toll project development role for the rest of the State. M 3of6. • Like Houston, the Dallas -Fort Worth metropolitan area needs a toll authority which can focus exclusively on its roadway needs. Toll roads account for over $1 billion of the 20-year regional transportation plan for North Texas. They are an essential component of regional mobility and must be able to be analyzed for feasibility, designed and constructed as efficiently as possible. What is the North Texas proposal to create a regional to//way authority? • a proposal sponsored by Collin, Dallas, Denton and Tarrant counties and endorsed by numerous cities, chambers of commerce and other organizations in the Dallas -Fort Worth metropolitan area • a governing board of North Texas residents appointed, sponsored by Collin, Dallas, Denton and Tarrant counties, with details of the administrative structure to be established by statute in the 1997 session of the Texas Legislature • transfer of all assets and liabilities of the existing TTA to the new North Texas Tollway. Authority (NTTA), including all TTA staff, equipment, facilities, the Mountain Creek Lake Bridge project and the Dallas North Tollway project (which includes the Addison Airport Tunnel and President George BusFi-Turnpike projects) • assumption and continuation of all current TTA construction and professional services contracts, so that no delay occurs in any project currently under feasibility study, design or construction • transfer of TTA feasibility study funds to its successor agency in Austin in sufficient amount to continue studies of pending tollway projects outside North Texas • retirement or assumption of all existing TTA debt • continued utilization of all TTA assets and .revenues exclusively to operate, maintain and develop existing and future tollway facilities What are the advantages to the Dallas -Fort Worth area of transitioning from the TTA to the NTTA? • more aggressive local support for new tollroad projects due to a board of local leaders who will share responsibility with local governments to find solutions to transportation funding shortages • ability of professional staff to focus exclusively on development of local projects without additional responsibility for travel and development of projects in other parts of Texas • dedication of regional tollway user fees to regional tollway needs, resolving political struggles over diversion of current and future North Texas transportation revenues 4 of 6 • potential for increased flexibility and interest -rate savings by adding new regional projects as part of a tollway system in North Texas, rather than financing separate projects How might the NTTA benefit TxDOT and the State of Texas? • more aggressive leveraging of potential NTTA revenues to assist TxDOT in meeting some of the billions of dollars of unmet highway needs in North Texas which are beyond current and projected TxDOT funding abilities • with legislative approval, new tollway development and revenue bond capabilities in Austin to focus exclusively on Texas tollway projects outside of the Houston and Dallas -Fort Worth areas • NTTA would have operational responsibilities for the existing TTA projects, freeing TxDOT of the distraction of administering these operating projects from Austin. The toll projects are very different from highway construction and maintenance. • Dallas -Fort Worth continues to have most of the feasibility studies of future tollway projects and will continue to dominate the staff attention of a single statewide toll agency if the NTTA is not established. Are there any other regional tollway authorities in Texas? • Yes, the Harris County Toll Road Authority serves the Houston metropolitan area. • The Harris County Toll Road Authority was established in 1983 and has functioned very effectively, having built 50 miles of tollways with plans to build another 32 miles. ♦ The Houston Ship Channel Bridge was developed by the TTA. In 1994, it was transferred to the Harris County Toll Authority, just as the North Texas proposal now suggests that the Mountain Creek lake Bridge and Dallas North Tolwway be transferred to a new NTTA in 1997. Why should Dallas -Fort Worth and Houston have their own toff authorities? • Their roadways are the most congested in Texas -- only DFW and Houston have a Roadway Congestion Index above 1.0. • The level of roadway congestion in DFW and Houston is among the ten highest in the U.S. and continues to rise. • Together DFW and Houston comprise over 50% of the Texas economy, and Dallas -Fort Worth produces more population and job growth than any other Texas region, which further increases its roadway congestion. 5of6 How could the proposed North Texas Tollway Authority serve the to# road needs in counties adjacent to Collin, Dallas, Denton and Tarrant? The future may bring a need for toll roads in the adjacent counties. For example, the Southwest Parkway in Fort Worth may be built as a toll road and at some point could extend to Cleburne in Johnson County? The North Texas Tollway Authority will have the legal authority to operate in any county and therefore could accommodate this extension by way of an interlocal service agreement with Johnson County. This has happened in Houston where the Harris County Toll Road Authority has extended tollways into Montgomery and Fort Bend counties. Should the North Texas area pay the State of Texas some calculation of "fair market value" for TTA assets? Local governments believe it is not logical for the motorists in North Texas to purchase any TTA assets from the State because: • All existing TTA assets were acquired or developed with revenues derived solely from tolls paid by North Texas motorists, i.e., North Texans have already paid for the TTA assets. • County governments are an arm of the state government and have a responsibility to assist the State in developing the surface transportation system. The assets will be transferred from one public agency to another public agency and used exclusively for the sole purposes for which they were initially acquired or developed. • No state tax revenue has been appropriated to TTA or invested in TTA assets, except the recent investment in the 190/Bush Tollway which was a significant reduction from its cost as a state highway. • The Dallas -Fort Worth area has a backlog of $6 billion of unfunded highway projects which TxDOT is requested to fund. Aggressive development of tollroads will help address this state responsibility, -and there is no logic in requiring the diversion of any of these dedicated North Texas transportation resources. Why doesn't North Texas just create a toll authority and put its own money into toll roads like Houston did? Since the TTA has an existing staff in place in North Texas, there has been no reason to duplicate these administrative costs. Harris County did have a bond election in which voters approved a property tax levy to build toll roads, but it has never had to use this tax authority because toll revenues have been sufficient to cover the debt service on its revenue bonds. While an ad valorem tax was approved in Houston, the tax was never actually levied and collected. North Texas counties have the same option available. They can seek voter approval of a tax to supplement toll road fir► revenues if there should ever be a need to do so --if some future project should require local funding above and beyond estimated toll revenues. C What are the arguments against creating a North Texas To//way Authority? The TxDOT Argument • Full consolidation of TTA and TxDOT without an NTTA would give TxDOT direct and ultimate control when developing toll projects --an optimum concentration of responsibility for toll road development in one agency. TxDOT would not have to work with a separate toll authority, eliminating unnecessary duplication and non -essential coordination. Response ♦ There will always be a need to coordinate highway planning with local governments. NTTA can perform this coordination function better than TxDOT because it is closer to and more involved with the local governments in North Texas. Many toll projects, just like the President George Bush Turnpike, involve multiple local governments. TxDOT would be better off coordinating with one agency --the NTTA--than with several local governments. This coordination has worked in a satisfactory manner in Harris County, and TxDOT does not propose to consolidate the Harris County Toll Road Authority. The Sunset Commission Staff Argument • Partial consolidation of TTA's toll authority with TxDOT would not provide the same benefits as a full merger, and the state as a whole would be better served by having one agency responsible for planning and construction for both toll and traditional highway projects. Response • Neither the benefits of a single statewide toll authority or the drawbacks of a partial merger were specifically itemized by the Sunset staff, but North Texas local officials do not accept the implication that a single agency would be inherently better for Texas or for North Texas. The Reduced Bureaucracy Argument ♦ Mergers generally have the benefit of reducing overhead costs. Response • In the case of TTA, administrative costs are minimal, making any cost reduction from full consolidation with TxDOT negligible.

Petty DATE: July 3, 1996 SUBJECT: North Texas Tollway Coalition Since being formed, the NTTC has been active on a number of fronts and it was felt that providing you with an update would be useful. The North Texas Tollway Coalition is a coalition of public and private officials and leaders in Collin, Dallas, Denton and Tarrant Counties formed to support the establishment of a North Texas Tollway Authority. The proposal for a North Texas Tollway Authority (copy attached) has been developed by the Coalition and is being distributed to and discussed by interested parties in the region and throughout the state. Presentations of the proposal have been made to the Sunset Advisory Commission, the Transportation Committee of theTexas House of Representatives, and various state officials. A not -for -profit corporation, Tollways for North Texas, Inc., has been organized to raise funds to support the efforts of the North Texas Tollway Coalition to establish a regional tollway authority in the 1997 session of the Texas Legislature. For more information about the Coalition or how you might support its efforts, please contact Vic Suhm or me at 214/621-0400. Thank you.

Hawk, City Manager FROM: Bob Whitehead, Director of Public Works SUBJECT: Authorize the Mayor to Execute the Water System ]Improvements Contract for the 5-Million Gallon Ground Storage Tank, Booster Pump Station Site No. 1 at the Northeast Corner of Pearson Lane and F.M. 1709 As in agreement with the Concept Plan for the Water Distribution System, Council has purchased property at Pearson Lane and F.M. 1709 (W. Southlake Blvd.) for a water ground storage tank and pumping facility. The reason for this location is that the water ground storage tank and pumping facility have to be in the approximate area of the "transmission line" (which is the water line from the City's water source) that extends through the City of Keller to this location. Over the last two years, City Council has considered various properties for this water facility. Council originally considered the northeast comer of the "C-2" Local Retail Commercial District tract which is located at Pearson Lane and F.M. 1709 to be in compliance with the property owner's unwillingness to sell any of the property's frontage onto F.M. 1709. After a series of meetings with the Cimarron Acres residential property owners, Council approved the purchase of the entire 16.00 acre tract of land with the selected location of the facility at the west end of the property along Pearson Lane. Based upon a meeting with the neighborhood on Wednesday, July 10, 1996, alternative locations within the 16.00 acres for the tanks will be presented at the July 16, 1996 Regular City Council Meeting. The establishment of the water ground storage tank and pumping facility is critical as it is needed to provide for our fast growing Southlake customers. In order to have the facility on-line for the summer of 1997, Staff is "fast -tracking" the construction by serving as the general contractor and awarding various subcontracts. The three contracts will involve the following: • 5-million gallon water ground storage tank • pumps, controls, building and piping • fencing, landscaping and parking. The first contract for the 5-million gallon water ground storage tank is before the Council for consideration. The City advertised the bid opening on June 9 and 16, 1996. They were received, publicly opened and read on July 3, 1996 at 10:00 a.m. The City received six bids. BID TABULATION The attached bid tabulation was prepared by Cheatham and Associates. Council will note that the cost for the concrete tank included a price for an "architectural facade" which was the brick work as shown on the architectural renderings. 10A-1 CURTIS E. HAWK CONTRACT FOR WATER STORAGE TANK PEARSON LANE/FM 1709 JULY 12, 1996 PAGE 2 Council authorized staff to bid the storage tank as a concrete tank with an alternative as a steel tank. This was based upon preliminary estimates received by the design engineer that a concrete tank would cost approximately $1.3 million and a steel tank would be around $1.0 million. Council will notice that the bid for the concrete tank was close to the estimate, however, the steel tank bidders really cut their price in their bid. The reason for bidding both a steel and concrete tank, even with the estimated cost difference of $300,000, was that the long term maintenance on a concrete tank is less than a steel tank. In addition, a brick facade could be added to the concrete for aesthetics. However, as the bids were received, the difference of approximately $700,000 can not be recommended to Council. Staff will have cost estimates for two treatments to beautify the steel tanks. Cheatham and Associates letter of July 12, 1996 is attached. As the City's design engineers, they have analyzed the difference in initial cost and long term maintenance costs. Based upon the normal painting schedule for the steel tank, they conclude that "it may take 50 years to offset the original savings in the two tanks." In December 1994, the City issued debt in the amount of $2.5 million. This issuance was based upon an engineering estimate that was completed in April 1994 which included $75,000 for land purchase. The Water Bond (Fund 758) has paid $1,010,109 for the 16.00 acres of land. There currently is $1.5 million remaining in the fund account. Therefore, Council may award the bid for the tank. Staff will have an analysis of the remaining bond funds and recommendations for funding remaining phases of the project. Staff recommends that the City Council award the 5-Million Gallon Ground Storage Tank and Booster Pump Station Site No.1 to Tank Builders, Inc. in the amount of $746,680.00. Please place this on the July 16, 1996 Regular City Council Agenda for Council review and consideration. n BW/ls attachments: Bid Tabulation Cheatham and Associates Letter C:\WPWIN60\WPDOCS\WATER\TANK\PEARSON.CON 1OA-2 o s o 0 0 o 0 0 o I N 0 N b N N o U C n C � w r h � O N N � N00 LL. 00 ca 0 Xr°oo� O OU z z D 00 w ( °m°3Wz°°m N 2 OO 0x� to i x 0. 4 1-. i i o ' 4 t o 0 0 M H N t^D t0 z o O r ►: 0 N N O h M � FU o o°Oo W �O co co iQUµzl�ao (ja 00 ,1 o -. >q a z z o I N Qo�ow0.�5 o s 0 o 0 0 °O 0 o 0 co 0 co 4A M m H s O ( U co co t N N pp PGo co {ij oo vi ' U w w I p > N N s rA s w o o co ct 0 : c7vFi"aa ! =Z) I N O D i� ( ! a 00 zz v m N x w s o 0 0 a 0 0 0 0 Ic i f 0 N 0 c0 0 OD lo (n CD 0 l 1 Y V q v N N Z i > o O N`'m -T co m {g'az°°P0 �a zz co y Q i � x s t-=waw� 0 o t- ( aco s� s s ^ l•+ N � V) v�OOZ Y W W `�' ( < m Q N i 0 W 0 z ~ � O aR0P ( Uw CO) ei v y 0 0 a w O Q (Q U Q Q W N z J ~O — Z IN ~ O O = vi p .. a� O F m H a 0 Z 0 z o w 3 A$ '^ in —j — ui J U fzl o ; _j K J V o? �a a z ( O O 21-ZT, N Fl I I I I I I I I I I I I 1OA-3 A A 7 i . .S 04 | O� C4 .ems LU § k� 0X z| CO | ' § § k§ ' k..�|D a. � })f� � 2 2 | 10 2 2 G �§ }�S � [ol E)� \ u �§m -�§�2& kk'CL �vk - lz 2 § '� 2 2 _ | \�S z| ee)� 2�k2/§F \_ :z )§ �§ - �( �e § % \ / / < 22 U L � § �[2 ) § w \« |o LU g # & Q o& �E « ® « 0 2§§ .� 5� a z § 'ca § k < Lu k o < a0 ■LU z z -A I.-_ z 2u o Z 2 A/ m t % §dk(� �� ) -i w m_, �% _ S 3 < ) § ? § ■cj g E A|�Z 10 -4 ') CHEATHAM AND �w ASSOCIATES July 12, 1996 Bob Whitehead, P.E. Director of Public Works City of Southlake 667 North Carroll Ave. Southlake, TX 76092 Re: Water System Improvements 5-Million Gallon Ground Storage Tank Booster Pump Station Site No.1 Bid Tabulations & Analysis Engineer's Project No. 001-519 Dear Mr. Whitehead: We have completed our tabulation of bids received and opened on July 3, 1996. The low bid received on this project was for the alternate bid of a welded steel tank. Tank Builders, Inca of Euless, Texas submitted the low alternate bid of $ 746,680.00. In comparison, the base bid for a concrete tank, with architectural facade added for aesthetic value, was $ 1,451,370.00. This base bid was submitted by Preload, Inc. of Dallas, Texas. In the comparison of initial savings to the City, the alternate bid for the steel tank is $ 704,690.00 lower. In appearance, the concrete tank with an architectural facade can address aesthetic values easier than a steel tank. However, similar architectural treatments can be added to a steel tank. Other monetary considerations are the long term maintenance advantages for the concrete tank over the steel tank, when considering repainting costs. We have established the repainting cost of a steel tank to be approximately $ 200,000.00 after twelve years, for touch up primarily inside the tank, and approximately $ 300,000.00 after another twelve years, when the tank would most likely require complete repainting inside and out. The initial cost savings of the steel tank over the concrete tank ($ 704,690.00) would be eliminated by repainting maintenance costs forthe steel tank within approximately 32 years, if no maintenance is required on the concrete,tank. However, the concrete tank would require periodic maintenance, as well. Within ten year, increments the tank would need to be dewatered, inspected, and possibly sand blasted inside and outside, to eliminate any buildups of aquatic growth inside, and replenish the uniform- concrete finish on the outside. This cost would be approximately.$75,000 every ten years. Therefore,the net cost difference in maintenance of the concrete tank, versus steel tank, over a 30 yearperiod7 y (steel),minus, $225,000 ;(concrete) .or would be $650,000 $425,000 over thirty years +�+Tre herefo, lit may take 50 ears to offset the original : savings in the two tanks. * iAi `+ ENGINEERS • PLANNERS •.

July 12, 1996 City of Southlake Page 2 Also, in addressing maintenance repair from leaks, should a leak occur, the steel tank can be welded underwater at a moderate repair cost. In comparison, the concrete tank would require dewatering and structural review, in order to determine the scope, and source, of the leak. The repair cost and down time could be extensive to repair a concrete tank. Therefore, it is our recommendation that the City award the contract to Tank Builders, Inc. for their low alternate bid of $ 746,680.00. We also recommend that a decorative paint scheme be incorporated with the steel tank construction, and that a combination of exterior colors and shades be used to give the steel tank a better appearence. We are currently discussing this option with an architect for his recommendations, and estimated cost, to paint the exterior of the tank to resemble the concrete tank, and related brick facade. This information should be available prior to the City Council meeting of July 16. If you have any questions, please give us a call. Respectfully, Eddie Cheatham, P.E.

Hawk, City Manager FROM: Ron Harper, City Engineer SUBJECT: Variance to Sign Ordinance No. 506-A Request Readerboard Sign for Primrose School 155 S. Kimball Ave. BACKGROUND: Primrose School has applied for a permit to construct a monument sign with three lines of changeable copy and for an additional three signs not defined in Sign Ordinance No. 506-A. The current Sign Ordinance requires that the City Council issue a conditional sign permit for all readerboard type signs. An addition, the Council needs to issue a variance, if it chooses, to allow the installation of signs not specifically defined by the Sign Ordinance. The proposed readerboard sign is to be a monument sign. This sign meets all requirements for a monument sign and it is to be illuminated. The three additional signs are shown on the exhibits as signs 1, 3A, and 3B. COMMENTS: Staff requests that this variance request to be placed on the July 16, 1996 Regular City Council Agenda for City Council review and consideration. Since the Sign Ordinance was adopted in March 21, 1995, City Council has considered and approved seven variances for readerboards (not including this request). Please see the attached list of variances that have been granted since the ordinance has been adopted. Staff would like direction from Council as to whether this requirement of the Sign Ordinance be brought forward for modification or if Council wishes Attachments: Sign Variances Granted List Chuck Bloomberg Memorandum dated July 8, 1996 Sign Exhibits 1, 3A, and 3B Permit Application C:\WPWIN60\WPDOCS\SIGN\PRIMROSE.MEM I SIGN VARIANCES CITY COUNCIL GRANTED AFTER 03-21-95 NAME DATE Carroll Baptist Church ..................... 08-01-95 Bicentennial Park ......................... 08-15-95 Bank United ............................ 09-05-95 Dr. Greg Wright ......................... 10-17-95 Huse Homeplace ......................... 02-06-96 Village Center ........................... 04-16-96 Lonesome Dove Baptist Church ............... 07-02-96 1OC-2 City of Southlake, Texas MEMORANDUM July 8, 1996 TO: Bob Whitehead, P. E. , Director of Public Works FROM: Charles Bloomberg, Plans Examiner SUBJECT Sign appeals for Primrose School 155 S. Kimball Ave. Mrs. Nancy Cangelosi, owner, has applied for a permit to construct a Monument Sign with a readerboard section. Section 19 of the sign ordinance specifies that readerboard signs (manual or electronic) may only be approved as a conditional sign permit by the city council. The monument sign meets all of the other requirements of the sign ordinance. Mrs Cangelosi is also requesting variances for three additional sign structures that are not defined in the sign ordinance. Section 17- A of the ordinance states that "any sign not specifically permitted in Articles V and VI of this ordinance shall be prohibited. The signs include 2 logo discs on the mailbox post, a parent information box with a logo to be located near the'mailbox, and a no smoking facility sign also containing a logo to be placed on a post near the building. This appeal is on the City Council Agenda for Tuesday July 16, 1996. Ms. Cangelosi will be present if you or the council have any questions. We have noted that several of the public schools have readerboard signs. /62r attachments: site plans sign drawings application CB RECEIVED 10C-3 JUL 08m6 DEPT.
