November 1, 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
November 5, 1996
1. Agenda Item No. 5A. ZA 96-129 Plat VacationLots t 2 and 3Spring Creek Acres
located at the intersection of Pine Drive and Pine Court Eat This request is being brought
forward by Timarron Land Corporation in order to clean up some issues related to the
existing plat of Spring Creek Acres. Timarron has purchased portions of the two eastern lots.
The owner of the remaining lots is in agreement with the plat vacation and is also desirous
of abandoning the ROW included in the plat. In case the question arises, the existing ROW
for Pine Court East was not included in this plat and is therefore not being abandoned with
this request. It is staff's understanding that the adjacent owners may come forward in the
future to request the abandonment of this ROW also. There are no unresolved issues related
to this request. Feel free to contact Greg Last or Tom Elgin if you have any questions.
2. Agenda Item No. 5B. Authorization to bid replacement fences at Bicentennial Park This
is an item we have discussed previously. Your action on this item will allow us to go out
for bids for the fencing.
3. Agenda Item No. 5C. Interlocal Agreement between the City of Southlake and Denton
County for Purchasing_ As noted in Director Campbell's memo, this agreement is a
renewal of a current agreement with Denton County that allows us to purchase materials
and supplies from vendors they have contracted with, taking advantage of potential cost
savings through volume purchases. We have not purchased any materials or supplies

through Denton County in past years, but entering into the agreement allows us the
opportunity to do so, should the cost be less than our other available sources. The
agreement with Denton County costs the city nothing, but puts a mechanism in place that
can potentially be of benefit to us.
TexPool. The impetus for the changes to our agreement with TexPool is the dissolution
of the State Treasury, but the proposed amendments include a variety of changes. The
memo from Lou Ann Heath, Director of Finance, outlines these changes. We are
recommending approval of the amendment.
5. Agenda Item No. 5E. 5F. and 5G. Community Service Agreements. As discussed during
the budget process, cities in Texas cannot make charitable contributions to non-profit
groups. As such, the City of Southlake has limited its financial involvement with groups
of this nature, to those who can provide a service on our behalf. Community service
agreements are signed to clearly document the nature of the relationship between the city
and the organization.
These agreements, when approved, will clear the way for us to release the funds to these
organizations. Note that the KSB Board of Directors has approved their attached
agreement, the Executive Director for GRACE has also approved their agreement, and the
President of the Lake Cities Band has approved their agreement. Appropriate- staff have
also had the opportunity to provide input into the final documents.
6. Agenda Item No. 5H. Professional Services Agreement with LeBlanc & Associates. The
memo in your packet from Tom Elgin, Planner, notes that while many of the provisions
of this contract have remained the same since the first time you reviewed it, there are some
differences. The contract in your packet shows in redline/strikeout format the changes that
have been made since you were provided the original contract. Tom's memo explains the
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest
November 1, 1996
Page 3
differences. This contract is the result of many hours of negotiation and review, and we
believe that is fair for both the contractor and the city. Please let me know if you have
questions about the contract.
7. Agenda Item No. 5I. Agreement with TxDOT for Signal at Village Center and F.M.
1709. As the memo in your packet from City Engineer Ron Harper point out, the State
will not allow the signal light to be erected at Village Center Drive and F.M. 1709 until
the agreement is signed. All of the underground work is completed.
This is the location for the signal that was approved by City Council with the approval of
the plat for Village Center. Recall that the plat as originally submitted by the developer
called for the spine street to be aligned with Westwood Drive in anticipation of a signal
light at that location. During the August 17, 1995 P&Z meeting, at the request of
residents of Woodland Heights, the developer presented an alternative plan submittal with
the roadway realigned to its current location. The plat was approved by City Council on
October 10, 1995 with the realignment of Village Center Drive. We are now beginning
to receive complaints from residents of Woodland Heights about the difficulty in turning
westbound from Westwood Drive onto F.M. 1709, and turning left (westbound traffic) off
F.M. 1709 onto Westwood Drive. Several have inquired about the possibility of either
relocating the signal light back to Westwood, or adding another light at Westwood in
addition to the light at Village Center Drive. In May of this year we received a letter from
TxDOT that included the following:
Upon review of the revised preliminary plat, we are concerned about a
signalized intersection with a 450' offset between Westwood Drive and
Village Center Drive. If the City proceeds with the revised preliminary
plat and a 450' offset, we will approve signalization only at the intersection
of F.M. 1709 and Village Center Drive, and not at Westwood.
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest

The signal at Village Center Drive needs to be erected. The developer relocated the 4-lane
internal commercial arterial at the request of the City. The developer has paid for the
signal at that location, and most of the work is done. The "road" that is to be located
opposite Westwood Drive is actually a common driveway, without sufficient capacity to
serve as a signalized intersection. In order to relocate the signal from Village Center
Drive to the Westwood/common driveway location, the City would have to pay not only
for the signal, but also the improvements necessary to upgrade the driveway to an internal
commercial arterial. The upshot of all this is that there isn't much we can do to relieve
the situation at Westwood Drive. Also, we need to recognize that the complaints are just
beginning (because the traffic will get heavier).
There is one possible scenario that could develop which would ameliorate the situation
down the road. With the cooperation of Telesupport and Ritz's developments, there could
be a common access easement that connects the properties to the driveway opposite Village
Center Drive, thus providing access when needed at the signalized intersection.
8. Agenda Item No. 5J. Authorization to seek bids for fuel station at the new public works
center. The City of Southlake has planned to build above -ground fueling facilities for
some time. With the purchase of the McMo site, the time has come to begin development
of the facility. As noted in the memo from Bob Whitehead, Rone Engineers, Inc. has
designed the facility and we are ready to seek bids.
9. Agenda Item No. 7A. 2nd Reading, Ordinance No. 480-212. ZA 96-96, Rezoning and Site
Plan Cimmarron Acres Addition. Current zoning_is C-2 with a requested zoningof CS.
There have been no changes in this proposal since Council approval of the first reading 7-0,
granting relief to items as noted in the staff report.
10. Agenda Item No. 7B. 2nd Reading,, Ordinance No. 480-213, ZA 96-97, Rezoning of
proposed Lots 5R 1 2 3 4 5 and 6RL Block 3. Cimmarron Acres. Current zoningis is C-2
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest
November 1, 1996
Page 5
with a requested zoning of SF-lA. There have been no changes in this proposal since
Council approval of the first reading 7-0.
11. Agenda Item No. 7C. ZA 96-134, Concept Plan of the Village at Timarron 7.627 acres
located at the southeast corner of W. Southlake Blvd., and the proposed Byron Nelson
Parkway. There are no unresolved issues related to this request although there are some
items in the Staff Review Summary which need to be addressed (e.g. internal bufferyards,
drive spacings, drive throat depths). The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended
approval 5-0 deferring some of the requirements and deleting others as noted in the Staff
Report.
12. Agenda Item No. 7D. ZA 96-135, Revised Preliminary Plat, Block 6. Timarron Addition
Phase 5. There are no unresolved issues with this request. The applicant did not submit
revised plans so the plan and review in your packet are the same review that was before the
Planning and Zoning Commission on October 17, 1996. The P&Z recommended approval
5-0, deferring the drainage and utility comments until later during the site plan process.
Please feel free to contact Dennis Killough or Greg Last if you have any questions on this
request.
13. Agenda Item No. 7E. ZA 96-121, Site Plan for the Southlake Center at Kimball. 1.7136
acres. Current zoning is C-3. The applicant revised the plan to meet the requirements of the
previous review letter, with the exception of the articulation on the rear wall (T deficiency).
Note the additional landscape island in the parking areas and increased landscape areas on
the front and sides of the building. If you have any questions regarding this proposal, feel
free to contact Dennis Killough or Greg Last.
14. Agenda Item No. 7F. ZA 96-117, Site Plan for Versailles Private Pool Facility, The
�..- applicant met with Director of Public Works Bob Whitehead and Director of Public Safety
Billy Campbell regarding the parking issue. Although they would still prefer all required
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest
November 1, 1996
Page 6
parking to be contained in the site, the proposal before you is an improvement. Nevertheless,
the plan is still deficient on required parking stalls and has driveway spacing problems and
throat depth problems as noted in the Staff Review Summary. Feel free to contact Bob,
Billy, Greg Last, or Dennis Killough if you have questions.
15. Agenda Item No 7G Resolution No 96-51 ZA 96-71 Specific Use Permit for outside
storage for Great Outdoor Landscape. The applicant has requested that this item be tabled
until your 11/19/96 meeting.
16. Agenda Item No. 8A. Ordinance No. 643. 1 st Reading. An ordinance requiring registration
of door-to-door solicitors: requiring identification badges. and providing regulations.
Director Campbell's memo provides a summary of the major provisions of this ordinance.
We bring this ordinance to you for two major reasons. First, the current ordinance is
outdated and required several administrative changes to mirror State statutes and current
city practices, including allowing for denial of a permit for specific reasons. Secondly,
we are trying to be proactive in regards to a potential solicitation problem when the Texas
International Raceway opens. It is not unrealistic to believe that on race days, there could
be solicitors lined up along SH 114 trying to sell merchandise and other wares. This can
easily exacerbate traffic problems, not to mention the potential proliferation of unlicensed
vendors.
There are two typographical errors in the ordinance. We will have these corrected by 2nd
reading on November 19, but the copy in your packet is not correct. (1) Section 4(b) first
line "employees" will be changed to "employs;" and (2) Section 12(d), which says "as
described in Section 8(a)(3)" will be changed to refer to Section 10(a)(3).
17. Agenda Item No. 8B. Ordinance No. 645. 1 st Reading. An ordinance providing for the
regulation of distribution of handbills in the City and requiring registration of those who
distribute handbills. As noted in Director Campbell's memo, this ordinance will merely
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest
November 1, 1996
Page 7
serve to allow the City to control the distribution of handbills when a problem occurs. As
with the solicitation ordinance, we will take action only if a complaint arises, but having
an ordinance in place gives us this ability. Councilmember Harris has reviewed the
ordinance and his suggestions (concerning a disclaimer by the City regarding content, and
prohibiting the use of adhesives) were incorporated into the ordinance. If you have any
questions regarding this ordinance, please feel free to call Director Campbell.
18. Agenda Item No 8C Ordinance No 667 1st Reading GTE Franchise Ordinance This
ordinance will in effect become our new franchise agreement for a 5-year period. The
only unresolved matter for City Council to consider is the access line fee to be charged
each residential and business customer. City Council can set any amount up to $17.00 per
year for residential and $24.00 per year for business. This is addressed on page 21 (8C-
21) of the ordinance.
19. Agenda Item No. 8D. Resolution No. 96-68, GTE Settlement and Release. The
Resolution authorizes the Mayor to execute the settlement agreement and release of claims
relating to the GTE Franchise Ordinance dispute. The monetary amounts are set out on
page 2 (8d-4) of the settlement agreement.
20. A�enda_Item _No. _ 10A. Reimbursement Policv for Citv Council expenses pursuant to
Southlake Home Rule Charter. Section 2.05. Your packet contains the policy drafted by
the Council committee of Gary Fawks, Scott Martin and Pamela Muller. Please note that
our attorneys have completed their review of the policy and have forwarded some
comments to me. Most of the changes they are recommending are simply wording
changes. I will be meeting with the Council committee on Monday to work with the
attorney comments. Resulting changes will be provided to you on Tuesday evening.
21. Agenda Item No. 10B. Developer Agreement for Shady Oaks Shop2pin2 Center. Southlake
Center at Shady Oaks Drive. Note from the memo by City Engineer Ron Harper that most
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest
November 1, 1996
Page 8
of this agreement is in keeping with the standard developer agreement. The unusual
provision deals with the sanitary sewer extension. This provision is outlined in the cover
memo from Ron, but was inadvertently left out of the agreement included in the packet.
The corrected page will be disseminated Tuesday night.
22. Agenda Item No. 10C. Prioritization of prQJect requests, This item is not worded exactly
as it should be, since it really relates to ordinances, plans, projects, etc., that have been
identified as needed. It is essential that we receive from City Council a clear direction on
which items to address in priority order.
We recognize that some items that may receive a lower priority ranking, may move
forward for City Council consideration due to a number of factors, such as ability to move
quickly with little or no additional work load to staff. However, bear in mind that this
exercise is being done for the benefit of City Council's time, not staff. There are any
number of alternatives we could take advantage of to enable these to move forward,
including farming work out, hiring additional staff, and/or considering some short-term
(or long-term) solution to the dilemma of to -split -or -not -to -split P&Z. Yet no matter what
we do, it all comes down to time available to City Council and the 1st and 3rd Tuesday
requirements for regular City Council meetings.
Included in your packet of information for the agenda item is the matrix of the City
Council's priority listing scores with list of frequencies. We have also attached the
ordinance request forms from the City Manager's office which were omitted from the
packet of information sent to you last week, plus the priority rankings of City Manager's
Office projects. The priority rankings from the information submitted by the other
departments which was included in last Friday's packets is also enclosed. Should you
want to have the ordinance request forms that were in last Friday's packet, please bring
them with you Tuesday night. This will keep us from recopying this material.
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest
November 1, 1996
Page 9
Please let me, Greg, or Shana know if you have any questions you would like to have
addressed at the meeting.
23. Agenda Item No. 10D. Rialto Letter of Intent. You may recall that you were provided
with a copy of the letter of intent submitted to staff by Brian Stebbins, along with a memo
outlining staff review comments. Please bring these items to the meeting on Tuesday,
because this item will be discussed in some detail then. Note that Scott Martin also
submitted comments on the letter, many of which were similar to staff concerns. Greg
Last is incorporating Councilmember Martin's comments into the review memo and this
will be provided to you at the meeting.
24. Agenda Item No. 11A. Ordinance No. 666 raising the speed limit on F M 1938 at the
suggestion of the Texas Department of Transportation. As pointed out in the memo from
Director of Public Safety Billy Campbell, staff does not concur with TxDOT's
recommendation to raise the posted speed limit on F.M. 1938 from 45 mph to 55 mph.
Our reasoning is discussed briefly in Director Campbell's memo. We will elaborate
Tuesday night.
Should City Council agree with staff, this item will go away. Should City Council agree
with TxDOT staff, we will bring the ordinance back to City Council for consideration on
November 19.
25. Agenda Item No. 11B. Continental Park Estates Dam rehabilitation, has been discussed
previously with City Council. As pointed out in the memo from Public Works Director
Bob Whitehead, staff needs direction from City Council as to what steps to take from this
point concerning this situation. Please call me, Bob, or Ron if you have any questions
on this item prior to the meeting.

26. Agenda Item No. I IC. Pavement Distress recommendation report The memo from Bob
Whitehead summarizes the issue. Please bring the study we sent you in last Friday's
packet to Tuesday night's meeting.
This item has been discussed with City Council in some form or fashion for more than two
years, and is included in those issues that we believe we need to resolve as quickly as
possible.
27. Agenda Item No 11D Authorize the City to prepare Pavement Reconstruction Plans for
streets in Diamond Circle Estates. This is another item which we are close to resolving.
The memo from Public Works Director Bob Whitehead summarizes the issue. This
afternoon we received a letter from Diane Johnson, President of the Diamond Circle
Homeowners Association, requesting that we go forth with option 3 (asphalt street!) listed
in the staff information. If City Council agrees to go forth with this option, I will instruct
our engineers to initiate plans to get this done. We will bring the item back to you for
formal consideration on consent agenda for November 19.
28. Agenda Item No. 11E. Lone Star Gas Rate Increase request. The memo from City
Attorney Debra Drayovitch outlines our options regarding the rate increase request. We
need your direction. We should have a clearer understanding of what the other customer
cities are doing by Tuesday night.
29. Agenda Item No. 11F. Recommendation of candidates to Tarrant Appraisal Review
Board. Your packet contains a letter from John Marshall, Chief Appraiser, Tarrant
Appraisal District, asking the City Council to recommend candidates for the Appraisal
Review Board (ARB). Your packet also contains a resolution adopted by the Tarrant
Appraisal District Board of Directors, which lists the qualifications of potential ARB

members. This item has been placed on your agenda as a discussion item. Please let us
know if you have any questions -- specific questions may require contacting TAD in
advance of the meeting.
OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST
30. Residents Group -- "Southlake !=acted Homeowners," Attached to my memo you will
find a letter dated 10/14/96 from a group of residents calling themselves "Southlake
Impacted Homeowners." This letter is in reference to the office proposal on the property
just west of the entrance to Lakecrest Subdivision. They gave this letter to the Community
Development Department to distribute to Council so we have included them in your
packet. Greg Last tells me that the developer has met with the residents several times and
agrees with their requests in great majority. The same letter was included in the packet
to the Planning and Zoning Commission for their next meeting on 11/7/96 at which time
this request will be heard. If acted upon by P&Z, this item would be before you at the end
of November or first meeting in December. If you would like further updates on this
request, please feel free to contact Greg Last.
31. Hail Damage to City ProMIU Report - As noted in the last memorandum, the hail storm
on October 21, 1996, resulted in damage to many of the vehicles in the city's fleet.
Attached are memos from Public Works and Public Safety addressing our damage
assessments to date and Directors Campbell and Whitehead's recommended plan of action
for prioritizing repairs. As noted, the damage to the Public Works facility on Continental
has not been assessed yet, nor has damage been assessed yet to the DPS vehicles.
So far, most of the vehicles that have been assessed, have estimates less than our insurance
%.•- deductible. We are working on a plan as to how to pay for repairs and will brief you once
we have determined the extent of the city's "out of pocket" expenses.

32. Drainage Issues in Wet Weather - The recent rains resulted in only a few drainage
complaints this week, to the surprise of our Public Works staff. Usually, we receive a
number of complaints when we experience the kinds of rains that occurred early in the
week. Public Works crews have, over the past year, made several improvements in some
of the areas which typically experience problems. We believe this is a part of the reason
complaints were not as numerous as they have been in the past.
As you know, we are continuing to work our way through the process of selecting a
consultant to prepare a drainage master plan for the city. We expect to have a
recommendation to you soon.
33. Florence Elementary Traffic Study - Lee Engineering is currently conducting a study on
traffic conditions around Florence Elementary. The study began the week of October 21.
The report is expected to be complete within the next two weeks.
The consulting traffic engineer is investigating options to relieve congestion around the
school that occurs in the morning and afternoon hours and provide a safer environment for
the children. Options include making Harrell Drive a one-way street to reduce left turns
and improve the traffic flow.
Once the study is completed, we plan to meet with Florence school officials to discuss
options.
34. Garbage Contract Activities - The City of Southlake contracted with its first refuse
collector in 1987, with a five year contract with Lakeside Sanitation. This contract
extended through April 30, 1992, and was subsequently renewed for an additional five
year period. In February 1994, this contract was assigned to Laidlaw Waste Systems,
Inc., who agreed to honor its terms through the expiration date of April 30, 1997. As
such, the city's current contract for refuse collection and recyclable materials collection
` ft.1
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest
November 1, 1996
Page 13
will expire in April 1997. The City of Southlake has not put its refuse and recyclable
materials collection contract out to bid in nine years.
Recognizing that garbage and recycling collection affects several of the city's functional
areas, Assistant City Manager Shana Yelverton has put together a staff committee to work
on this project. The committee will analyze information and make a recommendation to
the City Council regarding the course of action we should take for ensuring the continued
quality provision of solid waste and recycling collection. If you have any questions or
comments about this process, please contact Shana.
35. Citizen Satisfaction Survey/Business Needs Assessment - Work has already begun on the
Citizen Satisfaction Survey and the Business Needs Assessment. We have requested
databases of residential phone numbers on computer disks from GTE and Southwestern
Bell to use as part of the Random Digit Dialing (RDD) process. We have also begun the
process of reviewing the questionnaire. Please let us know if you have any ideas for the
questionnaire and we will gladly forward those to the consultant. Remember, however,
that the questionnaire will "mirror" the questionnaire used in the 1995 survey so that we
can trend responses over time. We are also limited on the number of questions we can ask
-- the consultants have told us that the survey needs to be limited so that it does not
become a negative experience for the resident being interviewed.
The Business Needs Assessment questionnaire will be going out soon. We hope to have
this survey to the businesses in town prior to Thanksgiving. The final report should be
submitted to us after the first of the year.
36. Public Works Update -
Dove Road Paving: Paving has been completed. Final cleanup and punch list items are
being worked on.
S2A Sewer: Work has been completed.
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest

Randol Mill Paving: Utility work is approximately 95 % complete. Randol Mill is closed
to through traffic between Fawkes Road and Florence Road in order to lower the hill
adjacent to Kingswood and to reconstruct the roadway. The project began on October 29,
and is expected to last until mid -December (weather permitting).
Highland/Whispering Lane/Emerald Estates - Work has been completed. Residents are
being allowed to tie into the system. Cleanup work continues.
Timarron Grouting - We have received the final report and will be discussing it with
Council.
Pearson Ground Storage - Site work is proceeding. Materials have been ordered for the
tank. Concrete foundation work has begun. The contracts for the pump station and
underground piping and utilities have been awarded. The entire project is scheduled for
completion by June 1997.
Kimball/White Chapel Water Line - Contract has been awarded and work has begun.
20-inch Water Line/FM 1709 - Contract has been awarded. Start of work is waiting on
acquisition of easements.
37. Information Update Concerning Texas International Speedway. The attached memo from
Gary Gregg, Deputy Director Police Service, to Director of Public Safety Billy Campbell
along with the Operations Subcommittee Report, makes interesting reading. Please call
Director Campbell if you have any questions about the work of the committee.
38. Follow up on question concerning costs of interim section reconstruction of White Chapel
from SH 114 to Bob Jones. Note the attached memo from City Engineer Ron Harper.
39. FYI. concerning the property we have been discussing for park use the overall appraisal
is at $1.59/sq.ft. Or approximately $690,000. We will discuss as appropriate in executive
session.
40. Follow up on Bank Deposito[y Agreement. We have moved forward with an independent
Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
Agenda Item Comments and Other Items of Interest

Page 15
firm, Arvizu Financial Group in Dallas, which specializes in evaluation of bank depository
services. The Arvizu Financial Group's expertise and knowledge of the industry will
ensure that the City receives the service it needs at a competitive price. The cost for the
services of Arvizu Financial Group was $6,500. This is a professional services agreement
and is funded in our professional services budget. Due to the upcoming holidays, we do
not anticipate an effective contract date until February 1, 1997. The schedule is as follows:
• Bids go out November 15
• Bidders conference December 4
• Proposals due December 13
• City Council presentation January 7
• Contract effective February 1, 1997.
We recognize that this time line extends far beyond the September 30, 1996 expired
contract with Texas National Bank, but the City's depository services contract over the
next several years is critical given the fiscal growth we have experienced and will continue
to experience over the next several years. A thorough professional independent analysis
of available depository services, coupled with a review of our cash management practices,
will prove most beneficial. Please call me or Director of Finance Lou Ann Heath if you
have any questions on this item.
41. Upcoming SPIN Activity - Several SPIN meetings are scheduled for the next few weeks:
♦November 4, 1996 - 7:00 p.m. - Solana - Neighborhoods #4, #8, #9, #10

Dear Mayor Stacy,
LU
OffICE OF CITY I
I would like to thank you and the City Engineers
Department on behalf of the Homeowners Association, for the
excellent presentation you all made at the Council Chambers
on October 16. Please extend our thanks to Mr. Whitehead
and his Staff for the clear explanation they gave of our
options regarding our sewer installation and road problems.
Since the presentation, we have polled our members on
the four options presented to us to obtain a consensus.
The result has been a convincing vote in favor of Option 3.
The appeal of this option is the opportunity to have the
Sanitary Sewer line installed in the road and to achieve,
in concert, a timely and satisfactory solution for our
roads.
I have taken the step of delivering a copy of this
letter directly to Mr. Whitehead to help expedite the
preparation of Procurement Documents. Once again, thank
you for your interest and efforts on our behalf.
Sincerely,

HOMEOWNERS REZONING REQUIREMENTS - REVISED
Dear Mr. Deichert:
Thank you for your response dated October 11, 1996 to our letter dated September 27, 1996
which outlined our concerns and requirements for the rezoning of the property at 521 W.
Southlake Blvd., south of the intersection of Shady Oaks Drive and F.M. 1709 adjacent to Timber
Lake and Lake Crest subdivisions. The impacted homeowners have had an opportunity to review
your proposal and offer the following adjustments to our original requirements (see attached).
Please note that the language is specific and therefore, we agree to adjust our requirements rather
than accept your letter as the agreed upon resolution to move forward with the development of
this property.
To restate the process we mutually agreed to follow prior to the Planning and Zoning
Commission presentation meeting:
• The rezoning request originally submitted for 0-1 will be changed to S-P-1 for the
approximately 2.95 acres situated in the Hiram Granberry Survey, Abstract No. 581, Tract
2C, as recorded in Volume 8374, Page 2186, Deed Records, Tarrant County, Texas;
• The S-P-1 rezoning request would stipulate the agreed upon Homeowners' requirements (see
attachment);
• The site plans would be redrawn with the agreed upon Homeowners' requirements clearly
marked;
• The site plans would include an elevation drawing with reference heights clearly indicated
(existing adjacent property Professional building height marked, etc.);
HOMEOWNERS REZONING REQUIREMENTS - REVISED
page 2
You will coordinate a mutually agreed upon meeting between the developers and the impacted
homeowners to review and approve the site plan changes and the S-P-1 rezoning request prior
to submission to the City Of Southlake Planning and Zoning Commission (Scheduled for
Thursday - 10/17/96, 7pm at 108 Springbrook Court - Timber Lake subdivision);
• All communication to the City Of Southlake regarding this rezoning proposal will be copied
or communicated to me as a representative of the impacted homeowners.
Thank you for your effort towards resolving our concerns and incorporating citizen input into
your final site plan submission. To restate our position: We are not opposed to non-residential
development on the property adjacent to our residential community, however, we firmly believe
that any development should not adversely impact surrounding property values, but, rather,
enhance them while contributing to our overall quality of life here in Southlake. Given agreement
with our revised requirements and inclusion of them in the final site plan submission, we look
forward to voicing our support for this development at the November Planning and Zoning
Commission meeting.
S incerely,
Michael C. Conrads

Hiram Granberry Survey, Abstract No. 581, Tract 2C
Volume 8374, Page 2186, Deed Records, Tarrant County, Texas
Change the 0-1 to S-P-1 Zoning request with the following requirements and uses clearly
defined. Concept Plans to be redrawn as Site Plans to include elevation views from front,
side and back and clearly identified renderings to scale of the following site plan
requirements;
• 0-1, "Office District" permitted uses as stated in the Zoning Ordinance with the
removal of the following high traffic uses: Banking, Savings and Loan,
Duplication and Mailing Services, Employment Services, Radio Recording and
Television Broadcasting, Travel Bureaus or services, Real Estate, Bill Paying
Services, and Community Facility Uses: Libraries, City Halls, Fire and Police
Stations, and other municipal uses;
• Only two (2) single story buildings will be erected on this site. The building to the
west (closest to FM 1709) will face to the east, not to exceed 7,400 s.f., and will
be placed a minimum of 45 feet from the west property line. The building to the
south will face to the north, will not exceed 11,800 s.f., and will be placed at least
100 feet from the south property line;
• A solid 8' masonry wall matching in masonry appearance Timber Lake's existing
wall to be constructed within 60 days of ground breaking along the south and west
property lines. In the placement of this wall, all efforts will be made to avoid
damaging or removing larger, established trees on residential property but may
"share" the property line. The developer will replace, at their expense, any trees
destroyed or removed in this process with residential property owner approved
replacement(s).
• The developer will work with the adjacent residential homeowners and the
adjacent non-residential property owner prior to final site plan submission to
replace existing wooden fences with appropriate, agreed upon 8' solid masonry
wall along the east property line;
• Although not in complete control and, therefore, the outcome unsure, the -
developer will work with the adjacent non-residential property owner in order to
remove their existing wooden fences along the adjoining south property line and
replace with significant landscaping so as to portray the two developments as one;
• Parking will not exceed the minimum requirements of the Zoning Ordinance or 90
parking spaces, whichever is fewer;

• Building elevation to include roof design. Construction of roof must be conducive
to the adjacent residential community and similar in construction to the adjacent
business office. Note: The 11,800 s.f. building is requested to have multiple roof
elevations to avoid a single, straight sight line. Flat roofs are unacceptable;
• Restrict hours of operation to weekdays from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. and stated as
such on the site plan (there is precedent on this point);
• The areas to the west and south of the two buildings will be heavily landscaped
(emphasis on larger trees) with no rear of building vehicle access. No impervious
material to be constructed in these areas;
• All building utilities and equipment appropriately concealed behind solid masonry
walls (landscaping is unacceptable);
• Tree and shrub plantings should be used throughout the property. The site plan
must quantify the landscape plantings while clearly depicting their placement on
the site plan. In addition to the Bufferyard F-1 requirements the developer will
add Bufferyard C planting as well as change Bufferyard M planting to Bufferyard
P planting;
• Exterior lighting will be for security lighting purposes only and will be placed in
such a manner to be directed to the non-residential buildings and must not "spill
over" onto the adjoining Homeowners' property;
• Trash containers/receptacles for the development to be (1) placed away from
residential property as shown on the site plan dated 9/17/96; (2) contained within a
masonry wall with closing wooden gate, and; (3) be hidden from view from all
adjacent homeowners' properties and travelers on F.M. 1709;
• For safety purposes, the driveway will be located directly across from the
intersection of Shady Oaks and F.M. 1709*. Prior to final site plan submission to
the Planning and Zoning Commission, the developer will contact both the
appropriate City personnel and the adjacent non-residential property owner to
pursue the connection of the parking lots to the east and closing off the existing
driveway for safer access. The building to the west should be placed in such a
manner as to allow for adequate throat depth and to provide for ease of traffic
flow. Parking spaces will be minimized near the driveway entrance. (*Note: A
traffic light is anticipated at this intersection but a temporary entrance may be
required until the light is installed.)
• All outdoor business signs will be in compliance with City Zoning Ordinances.
Only monument signs will be constructed with minimized lighting so as to be
non -offensive to neighboring homeowners;
• No future development or additions to the property without full review and
z
approval by the Impacted Homeowners.

SUBJECT: Hail Damage In Police and Fire Services
Sixteen police and fire vehicles have sustained damage to include two vehicles with windshields in
need of repair, one of which has already been replaced because of excessive damage. We are dealing
with three or four dent repair people at this time. I spoke with Pubfic Works Director Bob Whitehead
yesterday and we will also assist him in his repairs.
Sergeant Barry Hinkle will be the point man and will gather all information for Public Safety and
Public Works, taking written bids from at least three local businesses, and at that time I will evaluate
those bids, confer with Bob Whitehead, and we will make a decision on a single company to repair
the vehicles.
Criteria to be utilized for repair:
a) All newer vehicles will be repaired in their entirety.
b) Vehicles that will remain in service for a short period of time (one year to 18 months)
will be repaired to the extent that will be acceptable to retain the aesthetics and
effectiveness of these vehicles to Southlake standards.
c) Only major repairs will be addressed to those vehicles that will be coming off line
soon. Small dents will not be repaired.
I am available for any comments or questions.

Latest Racetrack Information
The coordinated plan for handling traffic on racedays continues to mature as the
affected cities work closer together. I have attached a copy of the preliminary
operations report. The report basically supports contra -flow of SH 114 traffic on the
two lane section of SH 114 in Roanoke from Oak Street to IH 35-W inbound during
the race and outbound after the event.
Traffic on south bound US 377 would be diverted to FM 1171 to travel on to the race
on IH35W. Little, if any, traffic will be purposely routed to FM 170. Even though
there are three lanes, it is essentially the road to nowhere, because of the limited access
to 35 W.
TxDOT remains adamant at this point about not doing any barricading or work
involving cones, ect. Their position is two fold, this is a commercial venture, and no
appropriations were made in Austin for this project. TxDOT estimated that with the
planning they have contributed to this point and with the portable reader boards they
will furnish during the race, their contribution will be around $350,000.
The Texas DPS attended the monthly meeting for the first time this month. They had
nothing to contribute and stated they had not received any word yet whether or not
they will participate. In a side conversation with the DPS Lt. he questioned where he
would get enough troopers to handle the event, without going statewide.
TxDOT will be sending us a sample resolution of support for the City to consider.
They are looking for a consensus of support on the issues of the traffic diversion and
direction. I will forward it as soon as it is received.

Operations Subcommittee Report
to the
Raceway Traffic'Committee
October 17, 1996
Operations Subcommittee Report
to the
Raceway Traffic Committee
This report was prepared by the Operations Subcommittee for the Raceway Traffic Committee. At
the Committee's request,. the Operations Subcommittee drafted this summary of strategies for
effective traffic management. The Subcommittee recommends these strategies to the full.committee
as an effective way to manage the heavy traffic expected in their jurisdictions during major Raceway
events. Some strategies may seemingly require outside assistance for the local jurisdictions closest
to the track, however all sovereignty and responsibility of those jurisdictions will be maintained.
The subcommittee's mandate was to recommend effective strategies. given the existing roadways,
but not to involve itself in the considerations of funding sources. The subcommittee believes that
if the recommendations in this report are implemented, Raceway traffic can be mobilized effectively
and that we can allow for reasonable access to streets and highways by non-event motorists.
INTRODUCTION
Texas International Raceway is the second largest sports facility in the United States and is projected
to accommodate approximately 190,000 people at the first major event in April 1997. This will
make North Texas the site of the biggest events in Texas history. Plans to add approximately 10,000
additional seats per year over the next ten years are already being considered. A major event will
saturate the roads around the raceway with up to 60,000 vehicles all trying to get to the track before
the event begins. The October 1995 Carter & Burgess, Inc. and Prime Strategies, Inc. engineering
report predicts significant traffic congestion on major roads serving the North Texas'facili: The
study is supported by what has occurred at other NASCAR tracks in the United States, where traffic
can be found backed up for ten to twenty miles. In a recent raceway meeting, it was predicted
traffic on major event days could at times backup east to Dallas on SH 114 and south to the
downtown Fort Worth Mixmaster on Interstate 35W.
RACEWAY TRAFFIC COMMITTEE
Although the Texas International Raceway is located within the boundaries of the City of Fort
Worth, the Carter & Burgess report. shows traffic -conditions will affect many North Texas
communities. In January.,1996, Fort Worth .Police .Chief Thomas. R. Wmdham.met with .police
representatives from .many of these .agencies and initiated regional approach .to the .traffic
challenges.
The Raceway Traffic Committee, formed as a result of that meeting, has grown to more than thirty-
five (35) members representing cities, counties, the Raceway itself arM the Texas Department of
Transportation. (See page eight for a list of agencies and their representatives.) Many police
officers, engineers, and other traffic experts have been meeting at least weekly since early 1996 to
prepare for the future traffic challenges.
■ Committee Goal- to professionally expedite the movement of traffic in the affected areas
with consideration for the needs of both Raceway patrons and those citizens who are not
attending the event.
Raceway Traffic Summary cont.
Page two
COMMUNICATION
Local jurisdictions need to be aware of what events are scheduled for the Raceway and how the
events may affect their community. The Fort Worth Police Department_ has agreed to forward
pertinent information about scheduled events to the cities which might need to be prepared. For. the
purposes of such planning, the events and notification list have been prioritized. Police staffing will
very likely be related to the size of the event.
• Priority three = Small events of less than 50,000 patrons, priority three positions staffed
• Prioritytwo = Medium event 50,000-100,00 patrons, priority two & threepositions staffed'
• Priority one = Large events more than 100,000 patrons, all priority locations staffed
During priority two or three events, the police command post at the Raceway will be operational and
will be equipped to provide immediate notification of information as required. Police
representatives from affected agencies will be invited and may participate in the command post
operation. A Fort Worth Police helicopter will monitor all major routes involved in the traffic plan,
without regard to jurisdiction.
THE MAJOR TRAFFIC CHALLENGES - AND THE SOLUTIONS
The Committee's traffic experiences, the Carter & Burgess report, and our observations of the two
public events at the Raceway, make. it immediately obvious that allowing traffic to flow normally
with minor alterations would be utterly impractical. Such an approach would leave both race
patrons and local citizens facing a traffic gridlock situation for many hours. The Texas Department
of Transportation estimates that, if we do not actively manage the traffic, there is likely to be an
ei
ght to ten hour gridlock with many race patrons unable to reach the track. Local citizens could
find themselves virtually unable to move about to conduct normal business for -several days.
Some jurisdictions are uncertain what resources they are going to require or to provide during
Raceway events. This report may help cities decide what resources they need. There is no evidence
to show the Department of Public Safety will be involved in the direct planning or operation of
Raceway=related traffic matters: While -the Texas .Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is' ` `=
actively involved in the Raceway Committee and planning process; TxDOT- has not been authorized
to fund or implement any Raceway traffic plans, including barricades and signs. Many cities are
gearing up to enact this plan and work in cooperation with their neighboring cities.
The Carter & Burgess report also estimates that about 48,000 vehicles will approach the raceway
from the east and south making heavy use of Interstate Highway I-35 West (I-35W) and State
ITighway 114 (SH 114) in the hours just before and immediately after a major event. The Committee
agrees with the estimate and believes SH 114 is the most critical of these two major arteries since
it has the least capacity in its present form.
Raceway Traffic Summary cont.
Page three
Listed below are some of the most significant solutions recommended by the Committee:
The intersection of Interstate 35W and State Highway 114
This intersection is the key to effective traffic movement in the area. If not redesigned for major
events, -this intersection. becomes a critical choke point for traffic. 'Traffic. must be expedited through
this location, if citizens who want to attend the event have any chance of arriving in a timely
manner. Map #1 shows the plan the committee has recommended for inbound traffic. It allows for
four lanes of traffic to flow into the Raceway with uninterrupted streams of traffic. The stop signs
are eliminated, arid I-35, along with SH 1.14 traffic. move independently of one another.
Map #2 shows the outbound traffic flow. This plan expedites traffic in the same manner as the
inbound but in the opposite direction. Again, the two major roadways are sharing an intersection
without interrupting each other. The post -event traffic on SH 114 will flow west to FM 156, south
to I-35W and two lanes will flow east toward Roanoke. These contra flows are available with
existing intersection design and will be enhanced once the scheduled intersection modifications are
completed early in 1997. Traffic control officers will expedite movement where necessary.
One-way State Highway 114 from Oak St in Roanoke to I-35W
,.,,. SH. 114 east from I-35W to just east of Roanoke is a two-lane road with a narrow railroad underpass
that severely limits its ability to move the number of vehicles we expect. Hotel space dictates the
direction from which most traffic will originate. With most of the metroplex hotel space east of I-
35W, the Committee believes SH 114 will be the roadway with the greatest demand on event days.
This road, from the Dallas area, is -a multi -lane, divided freeway that changes to a multi -lane divided
roadway just west of Grapevine. The road then narrows to one lane westbound just east of Roanoke.:
As traffic backs up in the hours before a major event, we believe motorists will, of their -own accord,
form two lanes going west through Roanoke. From Oak Street in Roanoke, west to the raceway, is.
3.2 miles and the roadway is restricted to two lanes under a narrow railroad underpass.
After considerable.deliberation, the committee decided -.that the best solution is to make SH 114 one
way westbound, using both lanes from Oak Street in Roanoke all the way into the raceway. While
this is somewhat labor-intensive and may temporarily inconvenience residents and businesses in
the three-mile area, it will allow traffic to move rather than come to a�complete stop for hours at
time. The Committee believes traffic otherwise would not move and would in fact be a greater
inconvenience to area residents and businesses. To allow only one lane from Oak Street in Roanoke
west, would make the City of Roanoke the major choke point and would back traffic up enough to
seriously affect D/FW Airport.
Sometime during the event itself, the contra flow on SH 114 will be reversed so that two lanes of
outbound traffic can flow from the Raceway east toward Roanoke. These reasonable traffic control
measures reduce the estimated traffic delays from eight to ten hours to a more palatable four hours.
Raceway Traffic Summary cont.
Page four
Detour of US 377 from SH 114
US 377 overpasses SH 114 in Roanoke, however, many motorists on US 377 exit onto Oak Street
to interchange to SH 114. Oak Street cannot handle the anticipated volume of traffic and the
interchange would seriously affect the flow of SH 114. SH 114 will be at its capacity and could not
accept US 377 traffic without causing Roanoke to gridlock. US 377 traffic needs to be diverted to
other available roads that lead to the Raceway and that do not merge with SH 114.
Traffic southbound on US 377, in the City of Argyle, needs to be diverted west to I-35W at FM 407.
This will eliminate the merge at SH 114 and will also reduce congestion at US 377 and FM 1171...
Northbound US 377, in the City of Westlake, needs to be diverted to SH 170 west to I-35W. Alta
Vista and Old Denton highway will also be diverted west onto SH 170. The Committee has planned
and recommended adding to the existing one lane merge of SH 170 to I-35W, an additional lane of
traffic from SH 170 to I-35W to be channeled on the freeway shoulder.
Up to the minute signing
The Committee realized early in their planning that the roadway system was inadequate for the
anticipated traffic demand. It was agreed that signs located in Fort Worth and Dallas were necessary
to advise motorists of the best routes to the Raceway. As incidents that block roadways occur, the
commercial radio stations and these signs need to instantly communicate the situation.
Police line patrols for rapid response to incidents
Insufficient roadways to the Raceway demand that the available lanes remain open. Lane blockages
due to accidents, stalled vehicles, and other incidents critically reduce the effectiveness of the traffic
system. Jurisdictions all along the route are interdependent upon each other to keep the roadways
open and moving. For example: An accident in one city will certainly be felt in the cities behind
it. This is especially the case for cities in the SH 114 corridor. _
Additional recommendations
These and other measures to fine-tune the traffic flow are listed on the RECOMMENDATIONS
page. Critical to our goal of moving raceway traffic and allowing nonevent motorists .reasonable
access to the roads is the need for up -to -minute signage. The Texas Department of Transportation
will design and recommend placement of such signs. These signs will aid event patrons in finding
the best routes and will warn motorists as far away as Hillsboro and Denton that they should
consider using I-35E to travel through the Metroplex on major raceway event days.
Raceway Traffic Summary cont.
Page five
RECOMMENDATIONS
■ I-35W and SH 114 interchange should be contra flowed to allow all traffic lanes to travel in
the direction of the demand without interrupting the traffic. streams. This will not allow
southbound'traffic on the SH 114 exit from I-35W to reach SH 1.14 for several hours before
an event. This exiting traffic will be directed into the Raceway parking area accessible from
the southbound I-35W service road.
■ SH _114 must become a one -way -road in the direction of the demand between N: Oak Street
in Roanoke to the Raceway.
■ Close US 377 access to SH 114. Divert Raceway traffic southbound to FM 407 and
northbound to SH 170.
■ Use the improved shoulder of roadway on SH 114 for an extra lane of traffic between SH
170 and North Oak.
■ Use the improved shoulder ofroadway on I-35W for an extra lane of traffic between SH 170
and SH 114. (Inbound and northbound only)
■ Authorize two lanes to exit from I-35W to SH 114 northbound and southbound.
(Southbound requires construction plan to be completed on time)
■ Strategically place up to the minute route advisory signs in Dallas, Fort Worth, and mid -
cities to advise travel time to Raceway via each route.
■ Police officers are required at intersections to control traffic or retime signals -if the signal
is so equipped.
Signal lights need hand control operation -for police -officers..
■ Limited available roads mandates that police officers are required for line patrol beats to
respond quickly to any incident that may block a lane of traffic.
■ Position fire and ambulance service to travel in opposite direction of traffic demand.
■ Cities should consider trail blazer signs to Raceway and barricades to protect residential and
collector streets. Some cities .are installing temporary barricades with "no access to
Raceway" signs.
Warn I-35 traffic in Hillsboro and Denton of delays on I-35W and encourage through traffic
use I-3 5 E.
Raceway Traffic Summary cont.
Page six
■ Public information and media releases to forewarn nonevent traffic.
■ Encourage mass transit issues.
■ Road maintenance and construction should be scheduled in consideration of major traffic
demand periods.
ISSUES FOR SURROUNDING JURISDICTIONS
Some Committee members, from jurisdictions close to the track, have recognized they may need to
use various strategies during event days to help to both move this traffic and to allow their local
residents to conduct business in as normal a manner as possible. Some of these solutions include:
■ Colored ribbons on local resident vehicles to allow traffic control officers to identify them
and move them through the raceway traffic as necessary
■ "No Raceway access" barricades and signs to prevent frustrated raceway motorists from
flooding residential neighborhoods looking fora quicker route.
■ Notices and announcements to business and churches that they may want to reschedule their
hours of operation during peak traffic times.
■ Traffic control officers at locations that are critical in some small communities such as
railroad tracks, near schools (for the Friday qualifying sessions), and near churches on
Sunday.
■ Officers to hand -control signal lights at locations where a major artery such as SH 114
crosses a smaller road to bias the traffic to the busier road. Representatives from Southlake,
Trophy Club, Keller, Justin, and Argyle have all recognized the need for this kind of action.
■ Portable trail blazer signs to designate routes to Raceway
■ Portable toilets to help with sanitation issues
■ Evaluation of their own jurisdictions for special needs and signs peculiar to their own
concerns.
■ Additional officers to staff intersections and police line patrols for emergency response to
traffic chokes.
■ Police officer equipment such as flashlights, vests, batteries, radios, etc.
■ Provisions for increased impaired driver (DWI) traffic

CONCLUSION
The Committee is comprised of experts in traffic issues and included representatives from many
North Texas cities. Their evaluations and recommendations were based on the entire North Texas
transportation requirements and not the desire of one entity. These reasonable proposals are fully
supported by the Committee and are necessary to accommodate the thousands of vehicles anticipated
for major Raceway events. The transportation concerns of the region were the Committee's main
focus during the entire planning process.
A critique will be conducted after each major event in an effort to improve traffic operations.

■ Directing motorists through

continuously;
■ Strategically placing route
advisory signs in Dallas, Fort

the raceway via each route; and
■ Making signal lights hand -

The plan will be taken within

"Whether it happens or not is

Department, the lead agency in
overseeing and developing ways
to deal with the massive numbers

"These reasonable traffic con-

TxDOT BEGINS WORK AT I-35W AND SH 114
IN ANTICIPATION OF MOTOR SPEEDWAY TRAFFIC
The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) begins a pair of roadway
improvement projects along Interstate 35W and SH 114 in southwestern Denton County next
week. Both jobs are geared toward improving traffic flow on these primary routes to the Texas
International Raceway,
On I-35W, contracting crews will reconstruct the southbound frontage roads and build a
new southbound exit ramp to SH 114. This phase is being funded by the City of Fort Worth.
On SH 114, crews will build all -new westbound lanes and reconstruct the existing two-
lane roadway to handle eastbound traffic. Once completed, SH 114 at 1-3 SW will have expanded
from two to six lanes. Crews will also build a turnaround traffic lane at SH 114 from southbound
1-35W to northbound I-35W. The City of Fort Worth has contributed 48 percent of costs for this
phase of construction, with TxDOT fiends making up the remainder. Together, both projects total
$5.7 million.
TxDOT and contractor Sunmount Corporation of Roanoke, Texas plan to complete the
improvements before the April 1997 opening of the neighboring Texas International Raceway.
Working together with local law enforcement agencies and city officials, TxDOT's
improvements are part of ov8rall traffic plans focusing on these soon -to -be busy locations.

"I-35W and SH 114 are the main routes into the speedway and, on race days, we expect
them to be very well used, to put it mildly," said TxDOT's Denton County Area Engineer Buz
Elsom., whose office will oversee construction. "TxDOT, the City of Fort Worth and the Fort
Worth Police Department, along with other agencies, are being extremely proactive in trying to
solve what we see as an upcoming traffic problem at this location."
Early estimates provided by the Fort Worth Police Department figure more than 60,000
vehicles daily will pass through the I-35W/SH 114 intersection on weekends of speedway race
competitions. By comparison, less than 10,000 vehicles currently pass through this intersection
each day.
Construction crews will begin setting safety barricades along their work zones on
Monday, Oct. 14. Both projects are set for completion in March 1997, one month before the first
scheduled race at the Texas International Raceway.
Information on scheduled lane closures on 1-35W and SH 114 will be posted on
TxDOT's construction hotline. The hotline number is (214) 374-4100.
For further information about these projects, call TxDOT's Denton County Area Office at
(817) 387-1414 or TxDOT's Public Information Office in Dallas at (214) 320-4480,

The key play for tomorrow's

After all the hype about The .

between neighboring Carroll and

much adrenalin tends to trigger
nervousness, resulting in fumbling
fingers, sloppy pass patterns, blown
assignments, lack of concentration.

Office park planned
SOUTHLAKE — Timarron Land
Corp., developer of the 1,100-acre
Timarron subdivision, wants to build a
corporate office park in Southlake that
would rival Solana and Las Colinas,
-staff writer Leslie Hueholt reported.
With city approval of zoning changes,
the '531-acre commercial development
along Texas 114 would be home to
businesses, hotels and big -name cor-
porate offices, officials said.
Timarron Land Corp., a subsidiary of
Mobil Land Development Corp., wants
the city to rezone three noncontiguous
tracts that are zoned for agricultural
uses. The 58-acre, 272-acre and 201-
acre tracts are north of Texas 114 from
west of White Chapel Boulevard to
Kimball Avenue. Construction could
begin in a year, a company official
said.
Southlake Planning and Zoning Com-
mission will consider Timarron's zon-
ing. requests Oct. 17. City Council
members said they support the plan.

A Cornerstone Of "
Southlake Speaks Out
We make a difference. This is a philosophy that bonds our
community and created Keep Southlake Beautiful. As an all -
volunteer, non-profit organization, your KSB board members
count on Southlake pride to get things done.
Even though we're a young organization, we're leaps ahead
of some of our neighboring communities. Formed loosely in 1992,
we quickly attained Keep America Beautiful certification after
completing training and a photometric index to document our
litter reduction efforts. Our successful quarterly trash -offs evolved
from once -a -year efforts, and we're quite proud of the many neigh-
borhood groups, families, organizations, and businesses that have
signed up for Adopt -A -Street. These group efforts, along with
an annual updated photometric index keep us KAB certified.
KSB is more than just litter oriented. The Board of Directors
formed four committees to further beautify our community: Lit-
ter, Beautification, Education, and Special Events. We invite all
citizens to join one. Amazingly, our young group has already
won several grants. The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department
awarded us a Wildscape Grant from which we created an educa-
tional wildscape area in Bicentennial Park. You'll know you
found it by the striking gazebo and bridge built by Eagle Scouts
Matt Bickford and James Robertson. We appreciate joint efforts
and welcome other ideas on how to enhance this area. An ongo-
ing enhancement is a waterscape on the site.
Many of you are currently taking advantage of our second
grant - the composting classes offered by the City of Southlake,
and a Buffalo Waller Festival gave our citizens a chance to learn
about wildflowers and to seed Bicentennial Park. The Special
Events Committee also awards a quarterly Beautiful Business
Award to our commercial neighbors who consistently maintain a
beautiful and clean property.
Finally, KSB labored hard four years ago for a Tree Preserva-
tion Ordinance. A new effort has begun to strengthen this ordi-
nance. We encourage you to ask questions and to sign the tree
Preservation Ordinance petition.
What other exciting things do we have planned? Besides the
ongoing waterscape are and Tree Preservation Ordinance peti-
tion drive, we'll be starting Adopt -A -Spots and offering lecture
series. Our Education committee is also joining efforts with our
elementary schools to help further their Nature Sites. We are
also developing a video on How To Save Trees. If you have trees
on your personal property or in the community that you would
like documented on tape, please call us.

information, and ways to get involved.

Building In Southlake
by Terry Fox
A fire destroyed the former Bill
Massey Furniture building located
at the north end of White's Chapel
in Southlake recently. The 3 story
building was seriously involved
when firefighters arrived, with
flames engulfing the rear two floors
of the building. Firefighters from
Southlake, Grapevine, Colleyville,
Keller, Trophy Club, Euless, N.
Richland Hills, and Bedford were
called out to help with the fire,
which was brought under control
within 2 hours of it being reported.
The building, however, was com-
pletely destroyed.
The cause of the fire, accord-
ing to Robert Finn of Southlake
DPS Fire Services, has not been
ruled upon yet by the Tarrant
County Arson Task Force, but he
expects it will be returned as "un-
determined." Arson is not sus-
pected at this time, according to
officials. The total value of the loss
has not yet been determined.
The current owner of the build-
ing is American Aquatic, a whole-
sale tropical fish company based
out of California that bought the
building in 1995 from Bill Massey.

The former Massey Furniture building will be bulldozed after being

By Deborah Kendall
Staff Writer
Southlake —Timarron Land
Corporation will present its plans
for rezoning approximately 550
acres of property along State
Highway 114 to the public to-
morrow at 7:30 p.m. at Johnson
Elementary School Auditorium.
Timarron Land Corp., a sub-
sidiary of Mobil Land Develop-
ment, wants to rezone the prop-
erty — divided into three tracts
— as commercial sites allowing
retail, office, hotel and restau-
rant uses.
"We're proposing a zoning
category that falls within the
City's Land Use Plan that will
allow flexibility to attract high -
quality users to the area," said
Steve Yetts, Timarron Land
Development's regional manager
of development.
The presentation will intro-
duce the zoning plans and will
include slides. After the presen-
tation, Timarron representatives

SOUTHLAKE — The Parks.
and Recreation Board has reached
a compromise with residents on
plans for Bob Jones Park, including -
the location of soccer fields and the
construction of nature trails.
Members of the board have
spent several months listening to
residents' concerns and have
agreed to. incorporate their ideas
into the 131-acre park. Last night,
the board unanimously approved a
master plan that appears to please
most residents.
..I appreciate the changes you've
made," resident Bill Moore said. "I
think it's something we can all live
with, grow with and be proud of."
Residents had various concerns
about the park, including the pro-
posed location of soccer fields near
homes on Bob Jones Road and
North White Chapel Boulevard.
Determined to be heard, resi-
dents formed a committee and at-
tended parks board and other com-
munity meetings. They drafted
their own park plans, complete
with architectural drawings, and
submitted them to the city.
Residents also objected to a pro-
posal to build concrete hiking trails
near existing equestrian trails on
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
property, saying it would be dif-
ficult to keep bicycles and other ve-
hicles off the concrete trails.
The parks board, which has been
working on a site plan since April,.
agreed to move the 13 soccer fields

Engineers present plan
to improve traffic flow
SOUTHLAKE — An engineer-
ing firm presented a proposal to the
ity Council last night on how to
mprove traffic flow on the often -
;logged Wall Street overpass at
Texas 114.
The proposal calls for changing
the timing on signal lights and
switching the direction of one lane,
creating three westbound lanes and
one eastbound lane on the over-
pass. The change would help move
ABOUT
Northeast
Tarrant
the heavy westbound traffic more
quickly, city officials say.
"The evening traffic right now
will back right up on the travel -
through lanes on 114, which creates
a dangerous situation," Public
Works Director Bob Whitehead
said.
The work is estimated to cost
$295,000, according to engineers
-from Fort Worth -based Barton-
Aschman. Mayor Rick Stacy said
he would ask other cities that use
the overpass to chip.
Grapevine commissioned
Barton-Aschman to study the over-
pass, which carries traffic to South -
lake Boulevard to the west and
Grapevine's Wall Street to the east.
The firm is expected to make for-
mal presentations to the Grapevine
and Southlake city councils within
a month.
Also last night, the City Council:
■ Gave the go-ahead for sev-
eral developments, including a 17-
acre housing subdivision at the
southeast corner of Florence
Road and Pearson Lane.
The addition, which will be
called The Woods, is being devel-
oped by Bryant Real Estate and
will include eight homes on the
Keller-Southlake border.
■ Approved plans for a First
American Savings Banc on Farm
Road 1709 and a 1.7-acre retail
.shopping center southeast of
Bluebonnet Drive and Farm
Road 1709. The shopping center,
to be called Southlake Center,
may include a bagel shop owned
by an undisclosed national chain,
according to developers from -

1:imarron Corp. wants to meet with neighbors
' BY. LESLIE HUEHOLT
Star -Telegram Staff Writer
SOUTHLAKE — Timarron
Land Corp., which has proposed
developing 531 acres along Texas
114, is expected to postpone a
'meeting with the Planning and
Zoning Commission tonight so it
can take more time to talk with
area residents.
'Action on a proposed assisted -
living center near the northeast cor-
ner of Peytonville Avenue and
Farm Road 1709 will also be post-
poned because the city has not noti-
-fied some adjacent landowners
about the proposal, city officials
said.
The Planning and Zoning
Commission will consider the as-
sisted -living center and the Timar-
ron development at its Nov. 7 meet-
ing, developers said.
Timarron wants to build a corpo-
rate office park that could include a
retail complex, a corporate power
center, hotels, restaurants and
space for high -profile companies
bn property it owns along Texas
114. Timarron is seeking zoning
changes on the land, which is desig-
nated for agricultural uses.
Developers told more than 100
people at a communitywide meet-
ing Monday night that they would
delay their presentation and meet
privately with residents to discuss
concerns voiced during the public
meeting.
Residents want to know what the
proposed Timarron development
will entail and how it will affect
their homes and schools. -
"What they're requesting has
such a wide scope that everyone
would like them to be more specific
and narrow it down to what might
be coming in across from their
houses," said Jan Francis, a repre-
sentative of the Southlake Program
for the Involvement of Neighbor-
hoods, which sponsored Monday's
meeting.
Residents also want to know how
Timarron's plans might change
when Westbrook Partners takes
over most of Mobil Land Develop-
ment Corp.'s properties at the end
of the year. Timarron is a subsid-
iary of Mobil.
"If they had a better understand-
ing of the new company, it would
be better," Francis said.
City council works hard
to upgrade development
by Stephanie Dobson
On Tuesday evening, the City
Council discussed two issues that
will have far-reaching effects on
Southlake and its residents.
Robert Jenkins of Barton-
Aschman Associates, Inc. in Fort
Worth proposed a plan to the
ouncil for re -designing the traf-
fic patterns at the intersection of
State Highway 114 and Farm-to-
Aarket Road 1709.
The plan will be decided on by
)oth the cities of Southlake and
grapevine, although the intersec-
.ion of interest is actually in
iouthlake.
Barton-Aschman Associates
teas conducted a traffic pattern
survey at the intersection during
the rush hour of S to 6 p.m. The
hourly count of vehicles turning
west from the frontage road off
SH 114 West and onto the FM
1709 bridge over the highway
was 815. Those vehicles heading
west on FM 1709 from the bridge
numbered 1,179.
The delay times for vehicles to
begin moving were measured at
45 seconds for those on thewest-
bound frontage road and 78 sec-
onds for those traveling south on
Park Boulevard. The maximum
line length was 47 vehicles per
lane on the westbound frontage
road.
Jenkins suggested re -striping
the bridge and the eastbound FM
1709 route from the present four.
lanes to include a left turn -lane.
Re -setting the timing on the traf-
fic signals was also given as an
improvement alternative.
As far as the traffic build-up
that occurs on the exit ramp of SH
114 West at FM 1709, Jenkins
mentioned widening the ramp to
include another lane, thus mak-
ing a two-lane exit ramp which
would feed west onto FM 1709.
The question was raised about
whether there had been a survey
conducted during the morning
rush hour.
Jenkins replied that there had
not been one as of yet, but that
there were plans to conduct one.
However, there were projected
estimates on the traffic patterns
between the times of 7 and 9 a.m.
The delay times for vehicles on
the frontage road was 41 seconds'
and headed south on Park Boule-
vard, the delay time was 45.8 sec-
onds.
The issue of another shopping
center was also discussed. Randy
Perry of Southlake Kimball Ven-
ture Ltd. came seeking approval
of the site plan for the Southlake
Center at Kimball.
The center will be a one -level,
1,400-square foot, multitenant
building with six to eight tenants
when fully occupied. It will be
located on the south side of the

Police, fire careers intertwine
Some AE Tarrant cities merge depart rnents, save money
BY BRYON OKADA
Special to the Star -Telegram
Last summer, Steve Caudle's job
put him at the heart of an exploding
room.
A petroleum fire in the garage of
a Watauga home was spreading
while Caudle and his fellow fire-
fighters were inside the house.
"Everything in the living room
got to an ignition point and
flashed," Caudle said. "It's an ex-
plosion. Everything in the room
just ignites. You want to know
which fire is the scariest? Probably
that one."
Most of the time, however, Cau-
dle's work puts him in another kind
of danger. "Last week, I arrested
some burglary suspects," he said.
Caudle chased them by car and
on foot after they bailed out of
their car, then drew his gun during
the arrest.
"I guess in both careers, I've ex-
perienced some excitable things,"
Caudle said.
Caudle is pursuing fire and po-
lice careers simultaneously as a
member of the Watauga Depart
ment of Public Safety, which cross= `
trains its officers in police work and
fire protection.
In a cost-cutting move, Trophy
Club will switch to a Department of
Public Safety by September 1997,

Cross. -Training
It's great that Northeast Tarrant County cities are finding ways
to save money by sharing some duties among police and firefight-
ers. It's a very bad idea to send anyone but. a fully trained, full-
time professional firefighter into a burning building. Nobody
wants to endanger lives to save money.
Watauga and Southlake are being joined by Trophy Club in
uniting their fire and police departments into departments of pub-
lic safety. And Bedford has appointed Police Chief Jim Simpson
as director of public safety to oversee both fire and police,
although those two departments will remain separate.
The cities that are cross -training fire and police officers say
they are looking for ways to eliminate duplication of efforts and
gain flexibility. They say their consolidated departments achieve
cost savings without layoffs.
To be certified by the state for DPS duty, police officers must
have three months of fire academy training as well as 20 hours of
supplemental training each year.
To us, that training seems sufficient to make a police officer a
good helper at a fire scene, but not to take on the full duties of a
firefighter. Fighting fires, like any other occupation, at critical
times requires instinct honed by full-time experience. It's the
instinct that tells you when to back away from a burning building
before you get hurt.
We're also concerned that when a police officer is fighting a
fire, no one is minding the police beat.
We know our cities are under tremendous pressure to save
money. We suspect, though, that as they grow, consolidated police
and fire departments will be something they will grow out of, not
into.

Parent complains
about punishment
student received
By Hollyriter Jo Umay
Staff W
Southlake - A parent com-
plained this week that Carroll
High School officials were not
severe enough in their punish-
ment of a student accused of
holding up a poster bearing a
racial slur at a recent football
game.
The sophomore was suspended
from extracurricular activities
after he was found holding the
poster, bearing the hand -
scrawled letters `TANHO" at the
Oct.12 Carroll -Grapevine High
School game at Pennington Field
in Bedford. Carroll officials
confiscated the poster because
they said the letters represented
a racial slur.
"The penalties that they gave
that student was basically a slap
on the wrist. The principals
should have responded more
responsibly," Judith Smallwood,
the complaining parent, said.
"This boy mentally hurt all the
African -American students and
all the ethnic students in the
community."
SMALLWOOD, WHO is Af-
rican -American, said she repre-
sents a group of parents who are
requesting a public forum to
openly discuss racial issues.
Carroll officials later said the
game was not the first time the
poster's message had been dis-
played. The day before the big

Southlake Beautiful and CISD are coordinating a
community -wide work day in conjunction with
Make a Difference Day.
Make a Difference Day is nationally recognized
and designed to improve communities across the
nation through volunteering.
The idea is to save some plants and money, said
Suzanne Tuttel, a member of the board of direc-
tors of Keep Southlake Beautiful.
"We will move plant material; from areas that
are being cleared to public areas, like Bicenten-
nial Park or the schools in Southlake," said Tut-
tel. "We want to save native plant material be-
cause we are losing a lot."
The native plant rescue will consist of digging
up native plants on sites that will be developed
and transplanting them to nature sites.
"We will most likely move plants such as red -
buds, Mexican plum and the rough -leaved dog-
wood," added Tuttel. "These plants are native to
the woods in Southlake.
"As far as grasses, it depends on what site and
what is there."
If you are interested in volunteering, please
call Coy Gray, volunteer coordinator at 481-5581
ext. 806.

Chamber honors local resident with tree
News and Times
The Southlake Chamber of
Commerce proudly donated a tree
and a plaque to Ada Elizabeth
"Lizzie" Day Higgins as the long-
est known Southlake resident.
The presentation was held Sun-
day, Sept. 29, at Southlake's 40th
birthday celebration held at Bi-
centennial Park. Mayor Rick
Stacy introduced Higgins and
Kosse Maykus, president of the
Southlake Chamber of Com-

Higgins was born Oct. 10,
1901. She came to Dove in 1911
with her family. Her father, Will
Day, was a preacher at Lonesome
Dove Church for about 35 years.
Lizzie married Earl Thomas
Higgins in 1920, when she was
19 years old and moved to Grape-

Watch your speed, they are
Here the traffic trailer is set up along Highway 114 monitoring the speed of passing motorists.
The Southlake Department
of Public Safety is now using a ra-
dar trailer to monitor the speed of
traffic. Perhaps you've seen it set
up in a school zone or along a busy
thoroughfare. But, wherever it is,
it's tracking your speed.
At present the DPS is not
using the device to catch and cite
speeders. But, according to Robert
Finn of the DPS. "we will, from
time -to -time, station an officer
behind the trailer who will also be
monitoring speeds to stop violators
and issue citations."
The radar trailer has two
primary uses. The first is to make
drivers aware of posted speed lim-
its and show their actual speed
through a given zone. The second
is to help with traffic surveys.
The trailer is capable of
recording the number of cars that
pass, what time of day they pass, as
well as the speed at which they
puss. "This helps us greatly in
assigning when and where traffic
officers need to be placed," said
Finn.
"Residents and parents
often complain about speeding in a
neighborhood or school Lune.
They will tell the DPS it happens
between, say, 8:00 a.m. and 10:00
a.m. With the trailer we may find
that the most offenses occur be-
tween 8:45 a.m. and 9:30 a.m.
With this information we are better
able to make optimum use of our
personnel by stationing an officer
there during that time period,"
remarked Finn.
The trailer is also able to
photograph speeding vehicles, but
due to the fact that these photos do
not snake good evidence , the DPS
does not use that capability. But
don't let that fact lull you into a
false sense of security. As Officer
Finn reiterated, "don't take the
trailer lightly, we might have a
traffic officer right behind it."

1996-1997 budget approved by council
Progress report
On September 3, 1996, the
City Council approved the
operating budget for fiscal year
1996-1997. The new budget took
Oc be 1 d includes
effect on to r an
the general fund, debt service fund,
utility fund, parks and recreation
fund and Southlake Parks
Development Corporation. This is
a continuing budget for all services
presently provided by the city, plus
all new programs the council has
approved.
Every department within
the City is reviewed annually for
necessary revision of budgetary
requirements. This is done to
maximize efficiency of operation.
This year's operating
budget was increased about 10.8%
from $17.4 million for fiscal year
1995-1996 to S19.3 million for this
fiscal year. The increase is
primarily the result of the addition
of nineteen city employees, ten of
which are police, fire and safety
related positions. This will raise
the number of full time city
employees to 167.
The Capital Projects
Budget, which funds infrastructure
construction and maintenance was
set at $17.9 million. This funding
covers projects that may carry over
into future fiscal years. Of the
S17.9 million allocated, $12.6
million is for water and sewer
projects and S52 million is for
streets and drainage projects. The
biggest part of this work is
designated as neighborhood
improvements.
The best news of all is that
the Council voted not to increase
the tax rate, keeping it at $0.422
per $100 of assessed value.
According to the city, this is the
sixth consecutive year without a tax
rate increase. There is also no
proposed increase in water or sewer
rates.

Doctor arrested on bigamy
BY DOMINCO RAMIREZ JR.
Star -Telegram Stall Writer
SOUTHLAKE — A physician
and a former patient surrendered
to Tarrant County authorities yes-
terday after arrest warrants were is-
sued for the couple on suspicion of
bigamy, police said.
John Locke, a doctor of internal
medicine who had lived in South -
lake, and Shari J. Rollins, formerly
of Watauga, were released on $500
bail each yesterday after they sur-
rendered to Tarrant County Sheriff
Department deputies, said Sgt.
Charlie Ward of the Southlake De-.
partment of Public Safety.
Locke and Rollins are accused of
getting married last summer while
they were married to other people.
They are expected to be charged
this week, Ward said.
Rollins and Locke, who no long-
er live in Northeast Tarrant Coun-
ty, could not be reached yesterday
to comment.
If convicted, they each face a
maximum of a year in jail and a
$4,000 fine on the Class A -misde-
meanor.
"Both had knowledge that they
were legally married to their spous-
es, but they went ahead and got
married," Ward said.
Locke and Rollins planned to di-
vorce their spouses, authorities
said, but the papers were not final.
Detectives were alerted to the
case in August when Southlake De-
partment of Public Safety officers
were called to a domestic distur-
bance on Texas 114.
Locke and Rollins were drillg
on Texas 114 when they "-had
stopped a pickup driven by Locl�!s
wife, Southlake DPS officials�44.
Locke demanded some personal
items from the truck, and his wife
searched for them, police said.
"As she went through the�tr„uck,
she found John Locke and,'Sha{i
Rollins' marriage license," Witd
said.
The marriage license show`.ed
that Locke and Rollins were.mpr-
ried July 9 in Tarrant County.
Locke and his wife, who, had
been a nurse in his office,,w9re
married in May 1991 in Rawaii,
court records show. Rollins and her
husband had been married' since

uses tax abatements to lure busi-
ness and industry to the city.
Keller Economic Development
Board is proposing an incentive
package that would allow certain
new businesses and some existing
ones to waive up to 50 percent in
taxes for a five-year period, with
the abatements declining 10 per-
cent each year. The plan would
also offer businesses other tax
incentives, including tax incre-
ment finaWing districts and for-
.,
C
eign investment zones.
Woody Mitchell, director of
economic development, has told
City Council members that Keller
lost out on several industrial
developments because it did not
offer incentives. If the city wants
to be a player in the fiercely com-
petitive race for development, be
said, it needs tax abatements in its
arsenal.
"We are in a highly competi-
tive field in economic develop-
ment, and our competitors are
very aggressive with incentives,"
Mitchell said. "We do not have an
incentive package. So,. we have to
come up with some incentives

Keller district to buy hand
in Southlake for
BY BILL BOWEN
Star -Telegram Staff writer
The Keller school district has
agreed to purchase a 30-acre tract
of land in the southwestern corner
of Southlake for a future school.
The district will pay $738,825,
$25,000 an acre, for the parcel at
2271 Union Church Road. The
tract is on the north side of Union
Church between Davis Boulevard
and Pearson Road. A slim arm of
the 29.553-acre tract extends to
Southlake Boulevard for access.
The entrance will be at Jellico West
Circle and Southlake Boulevard
(Farm Road-1709).
Money from the purchase comes
from a bond issue voters approved
last year. The site will probably be
new school
home to more than one campus,
and will likely include an elemen-
tary school and maybe an interme-
diate or middle school, although
plans have not been finalized,
board members said.
"Land isn't getting any cheaper
and there isn't any more becoming
-available," Trustee John Birt said
yesterday.
The tract is owned by Douglas
and Hazel Beavers.
In other action in Monday
night's meeting. the board agreed
to pay $152,320 for 80 laptop com-
puters for teachers, although the
bulk of $1 million in technology
funding remains frozen by the
board pending a review of the dis-
trict's computer equipment and in.
structional and technology needs.

Southlake rethinks plan. -
to widen several streets
BY LESLIE HU EHOLT
Star -Telegram Staff writer
SOUTHLAKE — The city is re-
sponding to residents' pleas to pre-
serve certain tree -lined country
lanes by downsizing about.a dozen
roads in its master thoroughfare
plan.
When it was updated in 1,991, the
plan showed a mass of four- and
five -lane roads throughout the city.
But after reviewing traffic projec-
tions and listening to residents'
concerns, officials have decided
that smaller and more intimate is
better — for now.
Today's master thoroughfare
plan suggests keeping many key
roadways to two lanes.
"In 1991, city officials were very
aggressive with the size of roads,
and they heard a lot of comment
from people_ in the community say-
ing, `Do what you can to avoid that.
We like straight and narrow streets
with trees along them,' " said resi-
dent David Baltimore, who helped

_A Good Meeting
Carroll school district residents and administrators came
together Saturday for a heart-to-heart discussion of a student's use
of a racial slur at a football game. This was a meeting that had to
happen — it wasn't an easy thing to do, but we applaud those
who took part in the spirit of healing the wounds caused by the
student's conduct.
The meeting with about a dozen African -American residents of
the Carroll district was held at the urging of Bettye Thorpe,
mother of a Carroll High School student, and Buddy Luce, presi-
dent of the Carroll school board. Also instrumental were school
board member Rob Glover, Superintendent Ted Gillum and Car-
roll High parent Ann Farrish. All deserve to be recognized for
their leadership.
The incident that sparked fears of racial division occurred Oct.
12 at Carroll's football game against Grapevine High School. A
student held up a sign with what school officials described as a
racial slur. Carroll officials confiscated the sign. The next week
they disciplined the student by assigning him to three after -school
detention periods and banning him from extracurricular activities
for two weeks.
-Some African -American parent s in the district were angry
about the incident and what they saw as lenient disciplinary
actions. Gillum initially declined to meet with the parents as a
group, inviting them to meet individually with him instead.
Gillum describes Saturday's meeting on the issue as "very pro-
ductive," one in which both sides expressed their intolerance for
this kind of behavior. He says he will now reinforce that state-
ment to all school district employees and "make it real clear that
the district will not stand for this."
Right on.

RE: Authorization to Bid Replacement Fences at Bicentennial Park
As you know, the chainlink fencing on the older ballfields at Bicentennial Park need to be replaced.
The cost is estimated to exceed $15,000 so the City must publicly bid the project and have City
Council authorization to purchase the fencing and installation. Our goal is to have the fences
replaced by January, in time for the Carroll High School freshman, junior varsity and varsity softball
teams to begin their first season. This is the first time CISD has used City facilities as part of our
Joint -use Agreement.
Please put an item on the November 5, City Council agenda for City Council authorization to bid
replacement fences at Bicentennial Park.
If you have any questions please call me at 481-5581 extension 757.

SUBJECT: Denton County Cooperative Purchasing Agreement
Attached is the Cooperative Purchasing Agreement for the 1996-1997 fiscal year that Denton County
offers to governmental entities within the county. The contract allows the entities to take advantage
of cost benefits associated with large volume purchases. All contracts follow State law regarding
bidding procedures and due to the volume of purchases, Southlake can benefit with considerable cost
savings by participating in this Agreement in the 1996-1997 fiscal year. This Agreement is a renewal
of the same contract previously passed by Council for the 1995-1996 fiscal year.
I am requesting that we renew this Cooperative Purchasing Agreement with Denton County and that
it be placed on Council's Agenda as a Consent item.

SUBJECT: Amendment to the Participation Agreement between the City
and TexPool
On September 1, 1996 the State Treasury was merged with the Comptroller of Public Accounts.
TexPool, a local government investment pool, was operated by the State Treasury. As a result
of the merger, Comptroller John Sharp is requiring an Amendment to the City's TexPool
Participation Agreement initially approved by Council in November 1992. The Amendment must
be approved by Council before November 20, 1996.
The Amendment makes several changes, although many will not affect the day-to-day operations
of TexPool. The management fee is to be reduced from 9 basis points to 8 basis points. The
Amendment reflects the statutory references changed recently in the Public Funds Investment Act,
plus the September 1 dissolution of the State Treasury. The Amendment removes the TexPool
operating procedures from the Participation Agreement and documents them separately, which
will allow for update without requiring governing body approval. The Participation Agreement
may be modified and will take effect 45 days after notification, however the City retains a 30 day
right to terminate the Agreement. A new section allows the Comptroller to contract a portion or
all of the services to a third party.
TexPool is rated as a AAA money market fund by Standard and Poor's. As of September 30,
1996, the book value of the fund was $4.38 billion, with a weighted average maturity of 10 days
and monthly average yield of 5.23 %. Southlake currently has approximately $4.2 million in
TexPool, which is about 28 % of our total portfolio. The balance of our portfolio is in direct
Treasury or Agency securities.
I recommend that the Council approve the TexPool Amendment to the Participation Agreement,
and request that this item be placed on the November 5 Council agenda.

A- ustin, Texas 7877-1
October 10. 1996
As you know, the State Treasury was merged with the Comptroller of Public Accounts on
September 1, 1996. Hopefully, that merger has been transparent to you in your interaction
with TexPool.
As a result of the merger and recent amendments to the Public Funds Investment Act, we have
updated the Participation agreement which has been enclosed. Also enclosed is a summary of the
revisions to the agreement. To ensure your continued participation in the program, you must return
the signed agreement by November 20, 1996. all current agreements will expire on that date.
I am also pleased to announce that I am reducing the management fee from 9 basis points to 8 basis
1*110.1 points. That makes our fee almost 10 basis points cheaper than our closest competitor!
Please be assured that I intend to see that TexPool continues to provide you with the same
high -quality service at the lu«est possible price.
In addition to improving the efficiencies at TexPool, I intend to explore other options that could
provide further savings for our participants. Some of the proposals I am considering include: keeping
TexPool as is: hiring a private investment company to manage the fund: or perhaps allowing a private
investment company to assume control of all operations of TexPool at some point in the future.
Any future decisions relating to TexPool will be based on your best interest and the interest of the
taxpayers of Texas. If other options do not improve service and lower your costs, we will continue as
is We will provide advance notice to you before implementing any changes
If you have any questions or need more information, please do not hesitate to call either
Oscar Ramirez or Steve Garven with my TexPool staff at 1-800-234-5447.
Sincerely.

SUMMARY OF REVISIONS TO TEXPOOL
-�--� PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT
�,34
(1496)
Following is a summary of revisions to the TexPool Participation Agreement:
The TexPool Participation Agreement has been revised to reflect current statutory references resulting
from recent amendments to the Public Funds Investment Act and the constitutional amendment which abol-
ished the office of the State Treasurer and transferred the Treasurer's duties and responsibilities to the Comp-
troller effective September 1, 1996.
The detailed operating procedures defining authorized investments, deposit and withdrawal proce-
dures by ACH or wire transfer have been removed from the former Agreement and are documented sepa-
rately in the "Operating Procedures" that will accompany the revised Agreement. This will allow for revisions
of the procedures when appropriate without having to amend the Agreement. Participants will be notified in
advance of any changes in the Operating Procedures but approval from each Participant's governing body will
no longer be required.
The former Agreement requires the Advisory Board to review and approve an investment policy for
TexPool. The former Agreement also makes the Advisory Board responsible for any modification or other
amendment of the fee structure. Recent amendments to the Public Funds Investment Act make it clear that
the Advisory Board's role is purely advisory. The revised Agreement reflects those amendments. With the
otion of approving fee increases, the Advisory Board will act in an advisory capacity only.
The former Agreement requires that amendments to the Agreement be signed by the Trust Company
and the participant. The revised Agreement provides that amendments to the Agreement take effect 45 days
after participants are notified of an amendment without action by the participants. Participants retain their
right to terminate the Agreement upon 30 days written notice to the Trust Company. These time periods allow
participants to review an amendment and to terminate the Agreement prior to an amendment's effective date,
if the amendment is not acceptable for some reason.
New Section 6.10 of the Agreement provides that the Trust Company may retain an outside party to
manage TexPool in accordance with applicable laws and as directed by the Trust Company. If in the future the
Comptroller determines that participants' interests are best served through the creation of a successor pool,
Section 6.10 allows the Trust Company to assign its rights and obligations and take the necessary steps to
effect the transition to the successor pool.
A REVIEW OF THIS SUMMARY SHOULD NOT BE SUBSTITUTED FOR A REVIEW OF THE REVISED
PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT THAT IS ENCLOSED. THIS SUMMARY IS PROVIDED ONLY AS A USEFUL
SYNOPSIS OF SOME OF THE MORE SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO THE PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT
AND DOES NOT EXPLAIN EVERY CHANGETOTHE PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT. ONLY A REVIEW OF
THE REVISED PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT CAN PROVIDE THE PARTICIPANT WITH COMPLETE IN-
FORMATION TO MAKE AN INFORMED DECISION REGARDING THE REVISED AGREEMENT.

MEMORANDUM
October 30, 1996
TO: Curtis E. Hawk, City Manager
FROM: Tom Elgin, Planner
SUBJECT: Professional Services Agreement with LeBlanc & Associates, Inc. for Software
Development for the Community Development Department
At the 1995 Mid -Year retreat, the City Council authorized $25,000 in additional budget expenditures
for the development of a database system to manage the growing volumes of case information processed
by the Community Development Department. Because of unresolved issues, the initial professional
services agreement that was brought forward to City Council on their August 6 agenda was not
considered. Subsequently, the funds for the professional services were encumbered to the current budget
year to allow resolution of the issues.
After a series of meetings with LAI, consensus was reached on the Software Development Agreement.
Attached are a "redline and strikeout" version showing changes from the structure of the August
agreement to the current agreement and a "clean' version of the agreement. Please note that the general
requirements (Exhibit "A") have remained the same. Following is a summary of the differences:
LAI will retain copyright and ownership of the system in exchange for a perpetual use license
granted to the City. LAI shall also pay the City 10% royalties for the sale of licenses to other
entities. (This is similar to the language in the services agreement for the development of the
"Service Request Tracking System.")
2. LAI shall furnish fully functioning evaluation diskettes for distribution by the City to interested
parties.
3. LAI shall provide free, timely customer support for a period of five years.
4. LAI shall provide system source codes and system design documents to be held in trust by the
City Attorney.
Debra Dreyovitch from the offices of Fielding, Barrett and Taylor has reviewed the agreement. If there
are any questions regarding this agreement or the development of the database system, please contact
me at Ext. 753 or Chris Carpenter at Ext. 866.
Please place this item on the next Council agenda for their consideration.

MEMORANDUM
November 1, 1996
TO: Curtis E. Hawk, City Manager
FROM: Ron Harper, City Engineer
SUBJECT: Authorize the City Manager to enter into Agreement between the State of Texas and
the City of Southlake for the Installation of a New Traffic Signal and Pavement
Markings within the Right -Of -Way of F.M. 1709 at Village Center Drive
BACKGROUND
Attached is an agreement between the State of Texas and the City of Southlake for the installation of the
traffic signal at Village Center Drive and F.M. 1709.
During the initial planning of Village Center, the developer submitted a request for a traffic signal at
Village Center Drive and F.M. 1709. The City forwarded the request to the State and received notice
of approval. At that time, the State requested that the final design plans be submitted for technical review
and approval. The developer's consultant, Barton-Aschman Associates, submitted these plans to the State
on July 25, 1996.
'he State requires an agreement be made with the municipality in which the traffic signals are to be
nstalled rather than with the developer.
Work has been done on this project. Jody Short of Barton -Ashman Associates met with a representative
of TxDOT for a preconstruction conference regarding this project. After this time, the State realized that
they had not processed this agreement. They have halted any further work until this agreement is
executed. (All work to date has been properly done.)
Page 2, paragraph 4, states that the City is responsible for all costs. In fact, the developer is. bearing all
the costs for engineering and construction of this installation.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends to authorize the City Manager to enter into agreement between the State of Texas and
the City of Southlake for the installation of a new traffic signal and pavement markings within the right-
of-way F.M. 1709 at Village Center Drive this agreement be placed on the Regular City Council

MEMORANDUM
November 1, 1996
TO: Curtis E. Hawk, City Manager
FROM: Bob Whitehead, Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: Authorize City Manager to Advertise and Receive Bids for a Fueling Station at the
Public Works Center; to Include Above Ground Concrete Encased Fuel Tanks,
Pumps, Piping, Electrical, Canopy and Reinforced Concrete Parking Pad
BACKGROUND
With the purchase of the land and building (MEMO) and the current move of the Public Works Divisions
(Streets/Drainage, Water/Wastewater and Engineering), the next related project is to provide a new
fueling station for the city vehicles. September 17, 1996, Rone Engineers, Inc. were contracted to design
and provide specifications for the fueling facility. They have produced the plans and specifications and
we are ready to proceed to advertise and receive bids.
The fueling facility will consist of a 12,000 gallon three compartment concrete encased above ground fuel
tank. The compartments will hold diesel and two grades of unleaded gasoline. The pumps, piping,
concrete surface with spill containment and a lighted canopy will be constituents of the proposed project.
ie fueling facility is designed to allow for the alternative fuel, propane, which the City will use in our
vehicles. Also it is designed to provide for additional fuel tanks for Carroll Independent School District
to fuel buses as we implement a joint use facility.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that City Council authorize the City Manager to advertise and receive bids for a fueling
station at the Public Works Center; to include above ground concrete encased fuel tanks, pumps, piping,

P & ZACTION.-
October 17,- 1996; Approved (5-0) subject to the October 11, 1996 Staff Review
Summary, correcting the bufferyard along Byron Nelson Parkway to read "30' Type
C" (after discussions with the applicant), deferring the decision on all internal
bufferyards addressed in item #6B until the site plan phase of development and
requiring a solid masonry wall on the East, deleting items #9B (driveway spacing on
FM.1709) to allow spacing as shown; deleting #9C (driveway throat, depth),, but
removing the five (5) closest parking stalls adjacent to the driveway on F.M. 1709 and
the three (3) closest parking stalls adjacent to the both drives . on Byron Nelson
Parkway, and deleting #9E (traffic impact analysis).
All buildings on Lot 2 and Lot 3 which exceed 20' in height. (UBC standard measurement) or exceed
one story must be setback from the east property line such that no portion of the buildings encroach
above a 4 : 1 slope line.
Interior landscaping is not reviewed at the concept plan level due to connections with building floor
area. However, the landscape area required in landscape parking islands is clearly deficient and should
be addressed based on the parking spaces shown. A minimum of 13 square feet of landscape parking
island per parking stall is required (approx. 1 - 9'x 18' parking island per 12 parking stalls).
This review is based on the "C-2" Zoning District Regulations.

RE: Case No.: 2A96-121
Site Plan - The Southlake Center at Kimball,
Lot 2, Block 1, Perry/Allen Addition
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Thank you for your comments and input regarding the site plan referenced
above. We appreciate having the time to re -submit our site plan to you.
It is our goal that our project conform to the planning standards of the
City of Southlake. To that end, we have revised the site plan to conform to the
Staffs' letter of October 11, 1996, items 2A and 2B.
2A: Interior Landscaped Area has been revised so that 75% of the
required area shall be in the front and along the sides of the
building.
2B: Landscape Parking Islands have been added to the four rows of
parking to the North and the South of the building.
Regarding Item 3 we have added vertical articulation to the rear wall and
the rear wall facade will be of brick. We have also met the articulation
requirements for the front and side walls both horizontally and vertically. We
would still request that the City of Southlake waive the requirement for
horizontal articulation of the rear wall as this wall is not visible from
Southlake Boulevard or from the resident some 400 feet to the South.
The area South of our South parking lot will be left in its native tree and
grass cover. We would ask that the Staff evaluate our need for an underground
irrigation system in this location. It has been pointed out to us that ditching
for irrigation could possibly do more harm than good.
Again, it is our desire that this project comply in all respects to the
City's standards and to create an attractive facility that will be successful
not only for ourselves but for the City of Southlake as well.
Best Regards,
SOUTHLAKE KIMBALL VENTURE, LTD.

City of Southlake, Texas
November 1, 1996
TO: Curtis E. Hawk, City Manager
FROM: Billy Campbell, Director of Public Safety
SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 643, 1st Reading, Repealing Ordinance No. 236,
Regulating Solicitation
Please find attached a copy of a proposed ordinance regulating solicitors. The revision is to
Ordinance No. 236 which was passed in August 1977 and has since become outdated. This ordinance
is to regulate solicitation within the confines of the city limits to include door to door, building to
building and along my street. The purpose of this ordinance is to protect the citizens from deceptive
practices, unwelcome disturbance and disruption of citizen privacy.
A synopsis of the ordinance is as follows:
- Section 2 provides definitions as related to the ordinance.
Section 3 requires registration of solicitors.
Section 4 outlines regulations for sponsors of minors. In this section we have tried to address
and allow those organizations such as the Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, School Band, etc. an
opportunity to solicit, while stating that the sponsor is to provide to each minor a badge or
other form of identification which identifies the name of the sponsor and minor. Even if not
in a uniform, a citizen would be assured by the badge and registration process that the minor
actually represents the organization represented. We are requiring a $10 annual fee from
these types of organizations.
Section 5 outlines the application process.
Section 6 requires a bond from the company.
- Section 7 sets a $10 processing fee per person (exception Section 4).
Section 8 requires the review and registration acceptance by the City Secretary and
Department of Public Safety.
Section 9 explains the requirements to the solicitor as they relate to obtaining the registration
certificates and display of identification badges.
Ordinance No. 643
November 1, 1996
Page 2
Section 10 allows for and gives examples for denial of registration.
Section 11 states that the solicitor shall note engage in solicitation activities: (a)(1) between
the hours of 9:00 p.m. and 9:00 a.m.; (2) on public property without first obtaining
authorization from City Council; (3) at residences or businesses posting notice of no
solicitors.; and (b) if a vehicle is used it must be clearly signed as to the identity of the person,
company or organization it represents.
Section 12 allows the City the right to revoke or suspend registration.
Section 17 establishes the penalties for violation of this ordinance.
The City Attorney has reviewed this ordinance and we feel that the attached ordinance substantially
addresses all of our past concerns and future considerations, and provides several efficiencies and
safeguards not previously available.

MEMORANDUM
November 1, 1996
TO: Curtis E. Hawk, City Manager
FROM: Billy Campbell, Director of Public Safety
SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 645, 1st Reading, Handbill Distribution
Please find attached a copy of a proposed ordinance regulating the distribution of handbills. We have
made a concerted effort to balance the First Amendment rights of the writer/distributor against the
community's interest in privacy and other quality of life concerns.
The City Attorney has reviewed this ordinance and Councilmember Harris has also commented in
several areas and his suggestions have been included.
There is no fee attached in registering under this ordinance. The ordinance merely serves as a tool
to document the distribution of handbills and to provide recourse in the event of misuse by the
distributor.
A synopsis of this ordinance is as follows:
Section 3 requires registration in the City.
Section 4 explains the application process.
Section 5 requires Department of Public Safety review.
Section 6 allows for the denial of a registration for specific reasons.
Section 7 allows the City Secretary the latitude in revoking and suspension of registration.
Section 8 provides for an appeals process through the City Manager or his appointed
designee.
Section 9 regulates the action and activities of the distributor to include a requirement of a
city disclaimer on the materials to be issued and the prohibition of adhesives to be used in
distribution.
Section 11 establishes the penalty for ordinance violation.
We recommend that Council consider this ordinance for approval.

MEMORANDUM
November 1, 1996 . ,
Curtis E. Hawk, City Manager
FROM: Ron Harper, City Engineer
SUBJECT: Developer Agreement with 1709 Southlake Oaks Addition, Lot 1, Block 1, located at
the northeast corner of the intersection of Shady Oaks Dr. and E. Southlake Blvd.
(F.M. 1709)
BACKGROUND
The commercial developer agreement for 1709 Southlake Oaks Addition, Lot 1, Block 1, is attached.
The usual requirements for performance bonds, letters of credit or cash escrow, and indemnification are
incorporated in the agreement.
There is one provision that requires Council attention. This developer originally intended to connect to
sanitary sewer by boring under F.M. 1709 adjacent to the entrance to Lakecrest and installing a sewer
line into a manhole in the Lakecrest Addition. Staff has requested, and the developer has agreed, to
construct the bore adjacent to the entrance to Bicentennial Park and to construct the line along the east
property line of Lakecrest (west property line of the Reutlinger Addition) to a stub at Caddo Lake Drive.
In consideration of this relocation, the developer has agreed to:
a) pay for the engineering cost for the extension to Caddo Lake Drive,
b) pay for 1/3 the cost of the bore (with the City paying 2/3 the cost),
c) pay for the construction of the line to Caddo Lake Drive with funds provided by the City.

Travel advances should be submitted at least three
working days prior to departure. Once the travel
for which an advance is requested has been
authorized, the employee must complete a "Payment
Authorization Memo" and submit it to the Finance
Office. This memo is available from the Finance
Office and the Department Heads. Upon the
completion of the trip the employee must complete
the bottom portion of the Travel Expense Report and
at such time reimburse the City or be reimbursed the
difference between the advance and actual trip
expenses. These reports must be submitted within
five working days after the employee returns from a
trip.
3. Out of State Travel. A Department Head will be
allowed one trip out of State to a National
Conference. Generally, employees below department
head will not be allowed to travel out of State. If
a Department Head is out of the office, next in
chain of command should be in the City. Exceptions
to these rules must be approved by the City
Manager. An exception, such as an individual who is
an officer in the organization, or on the program of
the meeting, could be allowed to attend with City
Manager approval.
4. In State Travel. Only one person, per department,
will be allowed to attend the annual TML Meeting or
other conference outside the local area.
5. Local Travel. Employees who travel on City business
within a fifty mile radius of the City and incur

expenses may be eligible to receive reimbursement
for allowable expenses upon approval by the City
Manager. Such approval will be subject to the
availability of budgeted travel funds.
Allowable Expenses
The following comments are for information and guidance in
determining which expenses are allowable. This is intended as
a guide and is not necessarily all inclusive. Discretion
remains with the City Manager to approve travel expense for
unusual circumstances.
A. Transportation
1. Personal vehicles may be used if the round trip
does not exceed 250 miles. If a personnel vehicle
is used by an official or employee for longer
distance trips, the trip reimbursement shall be
limited to the lower of the mileage reimbursement
for personnel vehicles or the air fare.
2. Air travel reimbursement shall be limited to
"coach" fares utilizing the most direct route where
such services are available.
3. Car rentals are not authorized, as a rule. If
extenuating circumstances require car rental, a full
explanation for the car rental is to be attached to
the request for reimbursement.
4. Airport shuttle vehicles or public transportation
are to be used whenever -feasible, in preference to
taxis.
5. City vehicles may be used for local travel.
Approval of the City Manager is required for longer
trips.
B. Meals
1. Expenses for meals and meal tips are not to exceed
thirty five dollars ($35.00) per "day per person.
This is not to be construed as a flat per diem rate,
and only actual expenses incurred are to be reported.
2. In cases where travel is in a location with
unusually high meal costs (e.g., New York City), the
per diem rate may be adjusted.
3. Employees may pay for meals of other City of
Southlake employees who are on City business, but
should list the employees' names on the Trip Report.
-3-
W
E.
4. Reimbursement for the reasonable cost of meals for a
City guest may be authorized by the City Manager but
only when it is clearly in the best interest of the
City of Southlake.
Lodging
1. While the City of Southlake expects its officials
and employees to be comfortably lodged, luxury hotel
and motel accommodations are to be avoided.
2. Reimbursement for lodging shall be limited to the
minimum number of nights required to conduct the
City's business.
Travel Time
The Trip Report must state the inclusive dates and times
of absence. Adequate travel time is to be allowed, but
travel expenses are not to be paid for absences not
required by City business.
Reimbursement
Upon completion of travel, employees are to submit a
complete Trip Report for reimbursement of expenses.
Receipts should be attached to the report including:
1. Hotel or motel bills
2. Transportation bills (air fare, etc.)
3. Automobile expenses, such as gasoline, oils, etc.
(when applicable).
F. Travel and Travel Expenses for Dependents:
1. The City of Southlake will pay registration fees for
the spouse of an employee for an association or
conference and the hotel bill for a spouse sharing
the same room with an employee.
2. No meals for the employee's spouse, other than those
included in the registration fee, will be eligible
for reimbursement.
3. Travel Expenses of spouses who accompany employees
by commercial carrier will not be paid by the City.
4. Exceptions to policies outlined above are to be made
only in exceptional circumstances and only in those
cases where the best interest of the City are
clearly manifest. The City Manager must approve
such exceptions.
-4-
G. Miscellaneous:
1. City vehicles will be used to the maximum extent
possible.
2. The City of Southlake will reimburse officials and
employees for the use of their personal
transportation at the rate equal to the IRS
allowable cost per mile.
3. Expenses for entertainment are not reimbursable.
4. Personal long distance telephone calls are not
reimbursable, except that, a call to the traveler's
residence or family is authorized each day while
away on business.
5. Vacations or personal trips in conjunction with
travel require special authorization and the
expenses incurred in connection with such are not
reimbursable.
VI. Effectiveness
A. Travel Budget
1. Travel and associated expenses are generally planned
during the budget process. However, circumstances
and lack of foreknowledge of events may preclude
adhering to budgeted travel plans in some
instances. However, the total amount budgeted for
travel will not be exceeded without City Manager
approval.
2. This policy is presented to serve as a guideline,
and there may be occasions or circumstances which
may require allowance for items not addressed within
this policy guideline. Such allowance shall be
subject to City Manager approval.
B. Effective Date
This policy guideline shall become effective upon
approved order of the City Council. Approved by Minute
Order June 20, 1989.

MEMORANDUM
November 1, 1996
TO: Curtis Hawk, City Manager
FROM: Billy Campbell, Director of Public Safety
SUBJECT: TxDOT Speed Zone Letter
We have received a copy of the engineering and traffic investigation study conducted by TxDOT
Traffic Operations Division, along with their request for us to pass an ordinance raising the posted
speed limit to 55 mph on F.M. 1938. We do not disagree with the results of the study since TxDOT
had not erected signs showing our 4545 mnh limit that they asked us to set during construction.
Because TxDOT had not posted signs on F.M. 1938 to indicate the change from 55 mph to 45 mph
coming into Southlake, we have been unable to enforce the 45 mph limit. Approximately 4-5 weeks
ago Deputy Director Gregg and Sergeant Daniels discussed the issue of no signs being posted with
Wallace Ewell, TxDOT Engineer, and as a result of that discussion, the signs were posted about three
weeks ago.
(aw Enforcement of the posted 45 mph limit has begun and we feel that any new study conducted
hereafter will indicate a need to retain the 45 mph speed. TxDOT, understandably, is trying to move
traffic through the area, however, the Southlake Department of Public Safety feels that there are other
more. serious safety factors to be considered in establishing the speed limit on this road:
The new car wash located on the northbound side of F.M. 1938 (which I believe was not opened at
the time of the study) is an example of the types of businesses that will proliferate on this major
thoroughfare. Current zoning on the east and west side of the road from the intersection of F.M.
1709 to the southern Southlake City Limits insures development along this roadway.
The commonality of the majority of the businesses that are or will be on this roadway, by their nature,
invite large numbers of vehicles that stay for short periods of time, generating a great deal of traffic
entering and exiting from and onto F.M. 1938. Allowing a 55 mph speed limit creates an unsafe
situation for our citizens and all those who traverse the area. In addition, as F.M. 1938 heads north,
it enters into a T onto F.M. 1709 at an already burdensome intersection.
All of the aforementioned will have a definite impact on the motoring public, and increasing the speed
will only exacerbate the existing safety problems on this road.
I am available if you have any questions.

MEMORANDUM
November 1, 1996
TO: Curtis E. Hawk, City Manager
FROM: Bob Whitehead, Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: Discuss the Preliminary Rehabilitation Alternative to the Continental Park Estates
Dam
BACKGROUND
In the June of 1995, the City entered into a contract with Freese and Nichols, an engineering firm, to
inspect, assess the dam and the implications for upstream improvements. The immediate question was
the potential impact on the dam if the City replaced the low-water crossing on Scenic Drive. Continental
Park Estates Lake and Dam are private. The lots bordering the lake are platted to the center of the lake.
Also, there is a 40-foot drainage easement on the recorded plat that extends through the middle of the lake
which follows the old creek location. (See an attached plat exhibit.)
The attached Continental Park Estates Inspection and Assessment of Dam, dated August 15, 1995
discusses two major points:
1. the "dam's spillway is in need or repair and has very little capacity to pass flood flows with
overtapping the embankment section"
2. "increased inflows will increase the occurrence of embankment overtopping ... "
COMMENTS
After Staff received the inspection and assessment on the dam, Staff advised City Council not to make
improvements to the low-water crossing Scenic Drive.
Freese and Nichols were contracted to extend their original study to look at possible alternative solutions
for improvements to the dam. Freese and Nichols met with Mayor Stacy and Staff on September 30,
1996 to discuss four options (A, B, C and D) for improving the spillway. Based upon that meeting,
Freese and Nichols also prepared three additional estimates which would "breach" the dam; i.e., remove
the dam and dredge or remove the silt. This information is attached as Freese and Nichols Memorandum.
Staff will be prepared to discuss this item and the alternatives. Staff seeks City Council's direction as
to^what procedure or action to take in response to the assessment of the dam.

DATE: September 30, 1996 DEPI OF PUBLIC WORKS
Ron King and I attended a meeting on this date to discuss preliminary findings and
possible alternatives for the dam in Continental Park Estates with City of Southlake officials.
Attending the meeting were the following:
Rick Stacy Mayor
Curtis Hawk City Manager
Bob Whitehead Director of Public Works
Greg Last Community Development Director
Ron Harper Assistant Director -of Public Works
Items discussed included the following:
a. Bob Whitehead began the meeting by giving a brief overview of the problem at the
site- and explained that F&N had previously provided a study of the dam and that now
a more in depth study was being :made to examine - possible solutions: aild define
associated cost range. Bob also stated that implementing a, solution to the dam will :free
the city up to address concerns with the low-water crossing at the upstream end of the
lake at
b. Bob stated that lots that back up to the lake are plated to the center of the original
creek centerline and the city has a drainage easement. The width of the drainage
easement is thought to. be 50-ft. Freese & Nichols should call city and find out what that
width is for possible alternative consideration.
C. It was stated the lakie,is technically -'a private lake that is owned by the 12-15 home
owners surrounding the lake.

e. Mayor Stacy said that the homeowners should be involved. This will most likely
mean meetings with the homeowners for briefings and discussions. Meetings with
homeowners was not included in our scope of work. Ron Harper mentioned a precedent
situation where the land owner provided the majority of funding for repair of an existing
spillway.
f. Curtis Hawk and the Mayor were concerned that city participation in a solution would
set a precedent that could lead to improvements on other private properties.
g. Ron King briefly discussed technical parameters associated with the study and
presented possible spillway alternatives that will maintain dam integrity. He also
presented preliminary planning cost estimates.
h. Mayor suggested that the council be briefed to educate them on the situation. One
possible position the city may take would be to simply breach the dam in the area of th

L The mayor requested that F&N look at alternatives that would allow homeowner
Participation. Some possible considerations could be:
1. Dedicate the lake as a public park and let the city become responsible for
costs.
2. Establish a base cost for city participation that could include several scenarios
such as 1) cost to breach the dam, 2) cost to remove the entire dam and 3) cost
to remove the accumulated silt.
3. Depending upon the solution referred by city homeowners
p, a cost plan for
making modifications to the dam could be distributed amoung the homeowners. ,
j. Freese & Nichols will provide an estimate to the city by no later than 3:00 pm on
Tuesday (10-1-96) for item h.2.

Re: Continental Park Estates
Inspection and Assessment of Dam
SOL95168
Dear Mr. Whitehead:
In accordance with the engineering services agreement between Freese & Nichols, Inc.
(F&N) and the City of Southlake dated June 20, 1995, we are pleased to submit this letter
report concerning the results of our inspection and assessment of the private. dam in
Continental Park Estates. The visual inspection of the dam was performed on June 29,
1995 by Brian Coltharp, E.I.T. and Jay Scanlon, E.I.T, under -the direction of John R.
King,,.P.E. Access.to the dam was provided by the City via the Bender.property which is
adjacent to the dam. Mr. Bender was present during a portion of the inspection and was
an excellent source of information. The results of the visual inspection and subsequent
assessment of the dam are summarized below. Photographs taken -while at the .site are
included in Attachment 6.
INTRODUCTION
The dam in Continental Park Estates is . located in the City of Southlake, as shown -on
Attachment 1. The lake and dam are owned by the surrounding property owners. The
dam is an earth embankment structure approximately 300 feet long with a 12 feet wide
crest and approximate 4.5 horizontal - to 1 vertical (4.5:1) downstream slope. There was.
no available information concerning the internal configuration of the dam, the materials
comprising the dam, or of the construction -techniques to build the dam. It is likely that
the dam is relatively homogeneous with no internal sand drains or filters. The
embankment material probably came from the lake bed. See Attachment 2 for a.sketch
of the dam. Not enough of the upstream face of the, dam was exposed above water levee:
to determine its slope. There was no evidence of upstream slope protection. The dam
has a 9%7' long, concrete broad -crested weirspillway `near the left abutment. The crest

of the spillway controls the normal pool level. The spillway is approximately 6 feet wide
at the crest and has a 6:1 sloping downstream face. See Attachment 3 for a sketch of the
concrete spillway. The top of the dam is approximately 1.4 feet above the spillway crest
near the spillway at the left abutment and is approximately 2.8 feet above the spillway
crest near the right abutment. There are no other means to discharge flows.
EMBANKMENT OBSERVATIONS
A visual inspection of the embankment was made beginning at the left abutment near the
concrete spillway. Several items noted are listed below:
(1) The condition of the embankment from near the center to the left abutment
was difficult to ascertain due to the large amount of overgrown vegetation
in this area. (see photo on Plate 5). There were no general signs of
instability.
(2) No seepage was visible along the downstream toe of the embankment or
along the downstream slope of the embankment at the time of our visit.
(see photo on Plate 2).-
(3) There are several trees growing up through -the embankment.. There are
five trees just to the right of the spillway which are greater than one foot. in
diameter. (see photo on Plate 5). It is likely that the trees' root systems
extend through the .embankment all the .way to the lake..
.(4) There is a dip in the downstream slope of the embankment approximately
175 feet from. the right abutment. - The extent of . the dip toward the left.
abutment -is difficult to. determine due to the overgrown vegetation. The
exposed length of the dip is approximately 20 feet. The dip could be the
result of a shallow surface slide or could. be due to erosion. According to
Mr. Bender, the dam has been subjected to small overtopping flows- in this .
particular area over the last few years. The. overtopping flows could have
caused surface erosion or saturated the slope, resulting in a slide. The area
is now -covered with vegetation, indicating that the dip occurred some time
ago. (see photos on Plate 3). -

(5) There is a 1.5-foot deep, 1-foot diameter hole just downstream of the dam
crest, approximately 150 feet from the right abutment. According to Mr.
Bender, the hole was dug for the planting of a tree. The tree was not
planted, and the hole was not backfilled. (see photo on Plate 2).
(6) The upstream slope of the embankment has a vertical erosion face because
the embankment is not protected against wave action. (see photos on
Plate 4).
(7) There are beaver dens in the embankment approximately 25 feet right of
the concrete spillway. The entrances to the beaver dens are below the
water surface. At the time of our visit, there was no evidence that the
beaver dens extended the entire length through the embankment.
Mr. Bender indicated that at one time,he had located an exit hole in the
dam crest approximately 5 feet from the upstream edge of the dam crest.
Mr.. Bender has trapped some beavers at the dam.. It is .presently unclear.
whether or not there are beavers currently active. at the dam.. (see photos.
on Plate 6).
SPILLWAY OBSERVATIONS
(1) A large erosion pool has formed downstream of the concrete spillway. The
pool extends 26 feet downstream of the end Hof the spillway, is 19 feet wide,
-and the .bottom of the pool is approximately 13 feet below the elevation of
the end of the spillway. (see photos on Plate .8):..The-erosion appears to
be active and continuing to move back toward -the lake.
(2) The* erosion. downstream of the. _spillway :has " cut back underneath the
spillway structure and has- exposed the spillway's concrete toe wall. (see
photos on Plate 8).
(3) There is extensive cracking of the concrete. See Attachment 4 for a
diagram which documents the location and size -of the cracks. (see photos
on Plate 9).
(4) There were no signs of seepage alongside the "spillway. (see photos "on
Plate 8).

Mr. Robert R. Whitehead

Page 4
(5) The creek bank is eroding where it makes a bend to the right, about 50 feet
downstream of the dam. The erosion is active and is caused by spillway
discharges. (see photos on Plate 10).
DISCHARGE CAPACITY
Attachment 5 gives the spillway discharge capacity for overflow depths up to 18 inches
before the embankment section begins to be overtopped. The spillway has a maximum
discharge capacity of approximately 47 cubic feet per second (cfs) before overtopping of
the embankment occurs. This discharge capacity (Q) is determined according to the
relationship:
Q = C L H3�z where
Q is discharge in cfs
C is coefficient of discharge of 3.0, for a broad -crested weir
Lis opening- width of :the spillway of 9.6 feet
H is depth of the lake above crest level; in feet
Attachment 5 also gives the combined spillway discharge capacity, and . embankment .
overtopping discharge for lake levels up to 40 inches above the spillway crest level. This
equates to 6 inches of overtopping over the -embankment near the right abutment and 24
inches near the- left abutment, -The maximum combined discharge is 785 cfs.
Even though. Mr. Bender reported that the embankment section has been slightly
overtopped several times (the depth of overtopping is unknown), it is. not prudent to rely -
upon the continued overtopping of unprotected embankment sections for additional
discharge .capacity. Continued overtopping of the right embankment section will erode.
or fail the embankment section. Continued overtopping of -the left abutment will.add to
the severe erosion already occurring immediately downstream of the spillway. Therefore,
for future analytical purposes, the discharge capacity of the lake should be taken as the
discharge capacity of the spillway at only 18 inches of lake level above the spillway crest,.
unless_ the embankment sections are raised to prevent overtopping -or they are overlain
with an erosion -resistant -material such as concrete.. .

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The embankment portion of the clam in Continental Park Estates appears to be in good
condition overall. However, the dam's spillway is in need of repair and has very little
capacity to pass flood flows without overtopping the embankment section. A summary of
our conclusions and recommendations are listed below:
(1) No seepage through the downstream toe or downstream slope of the dam
was noted during our inspection. The toe and downstream slope of the
dam should be observed periodically for indications of seepage and
movement of embankment soils (piping). Mowing the grass on the
embankment should help facilitate these observations. Seepage at -the dam
should not be affected by changes in the upstream watershed unless normal
base inflows into the lake are increased and the normal pool level is raised.
This would raise the phreatic surface through. the embankment which. may
result in seepage exiting the embankment at the downstream toe. .
(2) It is not recommended to have trees -growing through dam embankments
because the roots -become a potential seepage path for water from the
reservoir. The hole. caused by an uprooted tree during a wind storm could
breach- the crest of ,the dam. The roots -of a dead:. tree could decompose,
also -leaving behind potential seepage paths.- The trees growing inthe- dam
are already large and probably have well established root systems.
Removing these: trees would cause more damage than good . -to . the.
embankment. For these reasons, it is. not recommended to -remove the --
existing trees. However, no new trees. should. be allowed to grow 'on the
embankment. The dam will experience continued. deterioration from the
tree root systems and the risks of seepage will continue to increase:
Potential problems caused by the trees should not be affected by changes
in the upstream watershed.
(3) Beaver dens are also a threat to the stability of the dam because -of the
creation of possible seepage paths from the reservoir to the downstream -
toe. It is recommended that the dam be monitored for. beavers and if any.
are located, they should be removed and beaver dens properly backfilled.
The continued presence:of beaver densmill increase the -risk of seepage`and
erosion of the crest during overtopping:: Potential"problems caused
beaver dams could be increased if changes in the upstream watershed cause
the frequency or depth of overtopping of the embankment to increase.

(4) Discharge capacity of the spillway and storage capacity of the reservoir are
the factors which determine if a dam will be overtopped during flood
events. We did not perform any studies to determine the storage capacity
of the reservoir in Continental Park Estates. However, the spillway has very
little discharge capacity. This fact combined with the small elevation
difference between the spillway crest and the dam crest is an indication that
overtopping of the embankment already has a high probability of
occurrence. According to Mr. Bender, the dam has been slightly
overtopped a couple of times in the last few years. Overtopping of earth
embankment dams is not desirable because the erosive flows could cause
a dam failure. The safety of the dam could be enhanced by: (1) increasing
the discharge capacity -of the dam by widening the spillway and (2) raising
the crest of the dam. The frequency of overtopping and the risk of failing
the dam could increase if changes in the upstream watershed increase flood
inflow rates into the lake and/or if the duration of flood inflow -is increased.
(5) The current eroded condition of the concrete spillway is a threat to the
stability of the. dam. Flood flows through the, spillway in 'its current
condition could cause additional erosion .-under the toe of the spillway,
resulting in failure .of the spillway and subsequent failure of the dam's earth
embankment. The`spillway should be repaired. The rate of damage to the
spillway could increase if changes in. the upstream watershed increase.
normal base inflows, increase peak flood inflows or increase the duration of
flood inflows.
The erosion downstream of the spillway is being caused by water. velocities
in excess of 15 feet per second. The erosion at the spillway: could be.
deterred somewhat by regrading the area and plating with 24-inch diameter
or larger grouted riprap. However, this would not totally. eliminate the
problem, and erosion at the spillway would .probably continue to some
extent. A more effective option, but much more expensive, would be to
construct a concrete stilling basin with a drop inlet at the toe of the existing
structure.
(6) Erosion along the creek channel, immediately downstream of the spillway,
can be mitigated by lining the creek channel with rock riprap, by
straightening the discharge channel, or by discharging flows through a
concrete drainage pipe.

The safety, stability, and maintenance of any dam is the responsibility of the dam owner.
All of the items listed above are current problems we have identified and are the
responsibility of the dam owner. However, an increase in inflows could increase the
seepage and reduce the stability of the dam by saturating more of the foundation along
the downstream toe. Increased inflows will increase the occurrence of embankment
overtopping flows unless the discharge capacity of the spillway is increased and the top
of the dam raised. As mentioned previously, overtopping flows will eventually cause a•
failure of the dam. Also, the erosion downstream .of the spillway will increase more
rapidly due to the higher velocities through the spillway at the higher flows.
We appreciate the opportunity to be of assistance with this project and look forward to
working with the City again in the future. If we can be.of further assistance or if you have
any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to call.

by Wiss, Janney, Elstner Associates, Inc.
BACKGROUND
City of Southlake has incurred several concrete street pavement failures. These failures occur in various
residential additions usually over deep sanitary sewers and two or three years after construction. With
the assistance of Timarron and Wright Construction, the City of Southlake entered into a contract with
Wiss, Janney, Elstner Associates Inc. (WJE) to investigate the distressed and failed pavement in
Timarron, Phase I. By understanding the reasons for the problem in Timarron, we would be able to
understand the problem in other areas of the City.
The consultant (WJE) presented their investigation report in May 1996. Please see the following
regarding the attached information:
As authorized by City Council, a "field testing" study was conducted of the recommendation in the
nvestigation of Pavement Distress, May 10, 1996 prepared by Wiss, Janney, Elstner Associates, Inc.
The test of injecting a slurry grout into the gravel sanitary sewer pipe bedding was conducted from July
15, 1996 to September 5, 1996. The attached report is on the results of the trial grouting.
In summary, the results "indicate that slurry grouting can be used as an effective means for filling the
voids in the bedding material...". The report recommends that the following actions be taken "in
preparation for the implementation of a full scale slurry grouting program.
1. update the assessment of street conditions
2. development of plans and refinement of the specifications as presented in the report. (Appendix,
Section 10.0)
3. solicitation of bids.
Upon City Council review, discussion and action on the results of the Trial Grouting Report, Staff will
be prepared to work with the engineering consultants to prepare bid specification and program the
necessary repairs.
DISCUSSION
Staff is seeking Councils direction with the intent to bring back a proposal that would recommend that
City Council authorize the City Manager to enter -into an agreement with Wiss, Janney, Elstner Associates
to provide the City:
1. an updated assessment of street conditions

November 1, 1996
' WTO: Curtis E. Hawk, City Manager
FROM: Bob Whitehead, Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: Authorize City Engineer to Prepare Pavement Reconstruction Plans in Diamond
Circle Estates upon the Determination of the Type of Pavement
BACKGROUND
When the Neighborhood Sewer Program was established by City Council, Diamond Circle Estates was
to receive sanitary sewer in Year-2 of the program. Council budgeted funds in the FY96-97 to fund the
Year-2 Neighborhood Sewer Program. Cheatham and Associates has the sewer designed to be placed
behind the curb in the "parkway". Because of all of the landscaping in the parkway (i.e., the public
right-of-way behind the curb), the engineering design includes many "bores" under the landscaping and
trees. Boring is expensive compared to open cutting a sanitary sewer trench.
In conjunction with the Neighborhood Sewer Program, residents of Diamond Circle Estates have appeared
before City Council requesting that the existing concrete streets be reconstructed.
On October 16, 1996, Mayor Stacy and I met with the homeowners of approximately seventeen properties
,cated in Diamond Circle Estates. After a brief slide presentation which showed some of the current
weeet problems and similar subdivisions with asphalt streets, four options for improving the streets were
discussed. The four options with cost estimates are attached.
Option 1: Reconstruct with new reinforced concrete pavement - saw cut around existing driveways and
leave them in place.
Option 2: Mill edges and install 2" HMAC overlay leaving existing curbs.
Option 3: Saw cut 2' from back of curb, remove 27' of existing pavement and replace with 6" HMAC
pavement.
Option 4: Saw cut 2' from back of curb, remove 27' of existing pavement and replace with 5"
reinforced concrete pavement.
It should be noted that Option 2 was not acceptable to the neighborhood as it would replace only the bad
sections of pavement (40 % of total).
After much discussion, the majority of people present agreed to Option 3. However, they left the meeting
with the information as presented to "poll" the other residents of Diamond Circle Estates as to their
recommendations between Options 3 and 4. The Mayor made it perfectly clear that the City Council
,,-nuld make the final decision and it may not coincide with the outcome of the neighborhood poll. The
;hborhood representative is to return the poll results into Staff prior to October 30, 1996 in order to
ce this item on the Regular City Council Agenda for November 5, 1996.

the writingof this
memorandum, Staff has not received results of the neighborhood poll on the type
of street construction. We will try to have this information by the upcoming City Council Meeting.
Staff would suggest that City Council consider the sewer project and street reconstruction to be
constructed concurrently as this will provide a cost savings in the total project. The savings will be
accomplished by moving the sanitary sewer line from behind the curb to under the street which will
dramatically decrease the cost of boring the landscape. Staff realizes this is contrary to our present policy
on location of sanitary sewer lines; however, because of the established trees and landscaping, the
improved specifications based upon the Distressed Pavement SMdv and using an asphalt street, Staff feels
that if Council approves reconstructing the street in Diamond Circle that the sanitary sewer should be
located under the street.
FISCAL IMPACT
The City of Southlake Capital Projects Budget for FY96-97 includes funding for both the sewer and street
projects as follows:
Fund 755 Sewer Assessment Fund .................. $486,000.00
Fund 502 1997 Infrastructure Reserve Fund ............ $800,000.00
RECOMMENDATION
Public Works Staff would recommend that City Council consider Option 3 for the street reconstruction
moving the sanitary sewer location to under the pavement. This recommendation is based upon the
Aber 16, 1996 public meeting, the savings in construction costs and the cost of future street
IffffiteHance. The estimated costs of construction with the recommendation would be:
Option 3 Street Reconstruction .................... $568,575.00
Sanitary Sewer (*) ..................... $376,250.00
Current Engineer Estimate: Total Project ...... $ 44.825.00
behind the curb ....................... $465,250.00
under the pavement ..................... $376,250.00
Total Savings ...... $89,000.00
Please place to authorize the City Engineer to prepare pavement reconstruction plans in Diamond Circle
Estates upon the determination of the .type of pavement on the Regular City Council Agenda for
November 5, 1996 for City Council consideration.

Option No. 1 This option would be a complete reconstruction project. Parkway
landscaping, shrubs'and mailboxes would be disturbed with this"
construction. This estimate does not include re -sodding and replanting
shrubs. After the street has been excavated and soils'testing done, a
portion of the subgrade stabilization could be eliminated if the subgrade is
acceptable. A savings on the sewer system construction would be realized
if the lines were installed in the streets and pavement replacement
eliminated.
Option No. 2 This option would leave the existing pavement as base and spot repair in
areas of failure. The improved street section would be a HMAC surface
with concrete curb and gutter. No savings would be utilized by sewer
system construction within the street because pavement replacement
would still be needed.
(400.1 Option No. 3 This option would saw cut along each gutter line and replace the interior
2T with HMAC pavement. As in Option No. 1, a portion of the subgrade
stabilization could be eliminated if soils testing indicated an acceptable
subgrade. A savings on the sewer system construction could be realized if
the line were installed in the streets and pavement replacement eliminated.
Option No. 4 This option would be identical to Option No. 3, with the exception that the
new pavement would be replaced with 5" reinforced concrete pavement.

Re: Lone Star Gas Rate Increase Request
Dear Curtis:
In accordance with our discussion yesterday, I have researched the options available
to the City with respect to Lone Star's request
for an increase in the gate rate. As the
request is for a gate rate increase, not a retail gas rate increase, the Railroad Commission
has original jurisdiction and the City is not authorized to adopt a resolution suspending the
requested rate increase for a period of ninety days.
I am aware of three groups which have organized or are organizing to take action
with respect to this request for an increase. They are as follows:
1. A group of cities led by the City Attorney of Garland. Garland's former mayor,
Charles Matthews, is now a Railroad Commissioner. This group of cities has hired Lambeth
Townsend of the Austin law firm of Lloyd, Gosselink and the audit firm of Reed Stowe to
represent the cities. Charlie Hinton, the City Attorney, advised me that the City of Garland
is fronting the expenses for this group, and that the other cities will only have to contribute
funds if the Commission does not require Lone Star to bear these costs. If the other cities
are forced to contribute funds at the conclusion of the case, Mr. Hinton advises that the
amount should not exceed five cents per capita of each city's population.
2. The City of Fredricksburg has retained Austin attorney Jim Boyle and is filing an
intervention. I have not spoken with Mr. Boyle but understand that several cities have
joined Fredricksburg and that there is no charge to join this group.
N \\ V-: - \

3. Representatives of the Steering Committee of the group of cities that intervened
in the Texas Utilities rate increase request are meeting today to consider intervention in the
Lone Star case. Arlington City Attorney Jay Dogey is heading up this group and he will be
advising me of the Steering Committee's decision to intervene or join with another group
who has intervened. Curtis, Jay advises me that the City of Southlake is a member of the
TU group and as such, you should be notified of the Steering Committee's decision shortly.
If the City would like to join Garland or Fredricksburg, rather than Arlington, in
protesting Lone Star's request, you should call one of their representatives or, if you like,
we can call. Unless the City decides to intervene, no resolution of the City Council is
necessary. Should you have any questions in this regard, please do not hesitate to call.
Sincerely, /

OFFICE OF CITY
Re: Lone Star Gas Company and Lone Star
Pipeline Company City Gate Filing
On this date, ENSERCH Corporation, through its utility divisions Lone Star Gas Company and Lone
Star Pipeline Company, filed with the Railroad Commission of Texas a Statement of Intent to change the City
Gate Rate. When approved, this new rate will permit recovery of the costs of purchasing, storing, and
transporting natural gas to your community for sales to residential and commercial customers. The new rate will
be applicable to all of the cities we serve, as at present. No action on the part of your city is required either before
or after a determination on this filing by the Railroad Commission of Texas.
The last time Lone Star requested a change in its gate rate was in 1982. Since that time over $420
million has been invested to ensune system reliability and flexibility through the addition ��f compressor stations,
eline upgrades and underground storage facilities that enable gas to be moved more efficiently to cities.
g expenses also have increased in line with the inflation of other goods and services during this 14-year
period, and intense mazketplace competition has fueled the need to restructure pipeline operations during this
period as well. The result has been the need for a revised gate rate that reflects the changing nature of the natural
gas industry.
The proposed new rate will be about a 3% increase in the average customer's bill, but as a result of
concurrently declining gas costs — that are automatically passed on to the customers -- the impact of the increase
on our customers should be minimized if not eliminated. This letter and the attached copy of the Statement of
Intent are for your information and are provided under the requirements of Article 1446e, Section 5.08,
Tex. Rev. C iv. S tat. Ann.
Lone Star Gas Company and Lone Star Pipeline Company are committed to providing safe, dependable
natural gas service at the lowest reasonable cost to its customers. This gate rate adjustment will help us meet this
objective, and will enable us to remain viable partners in economic development with the communities- we serve
and support. Please feel free to contact me or your local representative if you have any questions or need
additional information. We want you to be satisfied with the investment we are mak;.ng in the future of our
communities and in our State, and we pledge to continue to serve your city and citizens according to high quality
standards at the least cost consistent with such standards.
Sincerely,
RicharWilliams

GAS SERVICES DIVISION
STATEMENT OF INTENT TO CHANGE. §
THE CITY GATE RATE OF LONE STAR §
GAS COMPANY ESTABLISHED IN §
GUD-3543 §
GAS UTILITIES DOCKET
NO.
TO THE HONORABLE RAILROAD COMMISSION OF TEXAS:
NOW COME Lone Star Gas Company and Lone Star Pipeline Company, Divisions of
ENSERCH Corporation, and ENSAT Pipeline Company (herein together called "Applicant"), each
a public utility pursuant to Article 6050, et. sect., Tex. Rev. Civ. Stat. Ann., and Article 1446e, Tex.
Rev. Civ. Stat. Ann., and file this Statement of Intent to change the city gate rate charge for gas
delivered for distribution to residential and commercial users, as well as for gas used by Lone Star
Gas Company and lost and unaccounted-for gas related to Lone Star Gas Company operations
(hereinafter called the "gate rate"), which was established by the November 22, 1982, Order of the
Railroad Commission of Texas in Gas Utilities Division Docket No. 3543 (hereinafter called "GUD-
3543"). This statement of intent to change rates is filed pursuant to Section 5.08 of Article 1446e,
Article 6050, et. ae , and the Rules of the Railroad Commission of Texas.
Applicant would respectfully show the Commission the following:
I.
Lone Star Gas Company, a Division of ENSERCH Corporation (LSG), is a gas utility that
distributes gas to residential and commercial end users in more than 440 incorporated cities, towns,
villages, and their environs across Texas. Lone Star Gas Company -Transmission (LSG-T)
purchases natural as from numerous supply sources throughout the State of Texas that is delivered
P g
tluough the facilities of Lone Star Pipeline Company, a Division of ENSERCH Corporation ("LSP"),
(awl and the pipeline facility of ENSAT Pipeline Company (hereinafter included in all references to LSP),
L
to the city gates of the cities in Texas served by Lone Star Gas Company -Distribution (LSG-D).
II.
Applicant's proposed changes in the rate established in GUD-3543 are reflected in detail in
the Monthly City Gate Rate Calculation (MCGRC) attached hereto and incorporated herein by
reference for all purposes, with the intent that the MCGRC will replace the rate approved in GUD-
3543. The MCGRC provides for the recovery of the LSP transportation costs through a base rate,
an excess rate, a usage rate and a fuel and lost and unaccounted-for tracker (FLAT). The LSP
storage rate will be a capacity charge with a deliverability charge. There is also a storage fuel tracker
component to the storage rate. The LSP transportation rate and storage rate for city gate deliveries
are attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference for all purposes.
III.
LSG-T's cost of service will include the gas supply procurement expenses of LSG-T, and
the property and income taxes, as well as the return on investment -related to the working gas in
storage, cash working capital, and negative deferred federal income taxes. These cost of service
elements, along with the cost of purchased gas, are included in the proposed MCGRC attached
hereto.
IV.
The MCGRC converts the various charges of LSP and LSG-T into a volumetric rate to be
charged to LSG-D. LSG-D will use the new gate rate as the base cost of gas in its distribution rates
Statement of Intent to Change the City Gate
Rate of Lone Star Gas Company - Page 2
1 \F--5
approved by the local regulatory authorities across its system, consistent with the current practice
under GUD-3543.
V.
The customers affected are the 1.3 million residential and commercial customers served
through the distribution systems of LSG-D in the State of Texas. _
VI.
The effective date of the proposed change is November 29, 1996.
VII.
The proposed change will result in a major change as that term is defined in Article 1446e,
Section 5.08(b). Annual revenues of Applicant will increase approximately 4.8 percent, or $24.2
million.
Applicant requests approval of a six-month surcharge to the final rates approved in order to
collect the rate case expense incurred by the Applicant in the course of prosecuting to conclusion
this request for a rate increase; and any rate case expense incurred by another party and assessed
to Applicant by the Railroad Commission. The surcharge should be approved for addition to the city
gate rate so that Applicant receives timely and accurate recovery of rate case expenses. The
surcharge should be calculated by dividing the total rate case expenses approved by the Commission
by one-half of the adjusted annual sales volume to residential and commercial customers served
under the city gate rate. Interest should be added each month on the uncollected expense balance
at the rate of six percent per atrium. Monthly status reports will be filed with the Commission until
the surcharge is concluded.

MONTHLY CITY GATE RATE CALCULATION
Lone Star Gas Company - Transmission (LSG-T) shall charge Lone Star Gas Company -
Distribution (LSG-D) a rate equal to the rate determined pursuant to the Monthly City Gate Rate
(MCGR) for all volumes delivered by or on behalf of LSG-T to LSG-D for distribution to residential
and commercial customers and for LSG-D company used and LSG-D lost and unaccounted for gas.
LSG-T shall file on or prior to the 25th day of each month an original or accurate copy of the MCGR
Statement, reflecting the City Gate Rate to be effective with deliveries on and after the first day of
the following month, with the governing body of each city, town, and village whose gas distribution
system is served through the city gate. LSG-T shall file on or prior to the 25th day of each month
a certified original of the MCGR Statement, reflecting the City Gate Rate to be effective in billings
on and after the first day of the following month, with the Gas Services Division of the Railroad
Commission of Texas, including supporting detail showing debits, credits, return, and balances for
all accounts, in accordance with the following formulae:
A. Estimated Monthly City Gate Rate
LSG-T shall calculate the Estimated Monthly City Gate Rate for the following month
(EMCGR) according to the following formula:
Where:
EMCGR =
EMGPC +GAC +EPDC +SC +EWGSCC +CC
ECGD
EMGPC = Estimated monthly gas purchase cost for the following month based
on the factors in the definition of monthly gas purchase cost in
Paragraph B;
GAC = Gas acquisition costs for the following month determined by dividing
the test year costs allocated to city gate deliveries by 12.
EPDC = Estimated total pipeline delivery charges for the following month
from Lone Star Pipeline Company based on the methodology defined
in Paragraph G;
SC = Total storage charges for the following month from Lone Star
Pipeline Company based on the methodology defined in Paragraph I;
EWGSCC = Estimated change in working gas in storage carrying charges for the
following month based on the factors in the definition of working gas
in storage carrying costs in Paragraph K;
L
CC = Correction calculation adjustment for the following month as defined
in Paragraph 0; and,
ECGD = Estimated city gate deliveries for sale to residential and commercial
customers during the following month based upon prior year, same
month, city gate sales volumes adjusted for normal weather. -
(MCGR Statement of the monthly city gate rate filing)
B. Estimated Monthly Gas Purchase Cost
The Estimated Monthly Gas Purchase Cost (EMGPC) for any month shall be determined
according to the following formula:
EMGPC = ECGGP +(EACSW *ETGWS)-(EACSI *ETGIS) -EEF
Where:
ECGGP = EMAF * (ETGPA * the lesser of ETCOGN / ETGPN or
ETCOGA / ETGPA);
ETGPA = Estimated total volume of gas (Mcf) to be purchased for resale from
all sources, including affiliates, LSG- D company used, LSG-D lost
and unaccounted-for, and retention during such month;
ETCOGA = Estimated total cost of gas (Dollars) to be purchased for resale from
all sources, including affiliates, LSG-D company used, LSG-D lost.
and unaccounted-for, and retention during such month;
ETCOGN = Estimated total cost of gas (Dollars) to be purchased for resale from
all non-affiliated sources, LSG-D company used, LSG-D lost and
unaccounted-for, and retention during such month;
ETGPN = Estimated total volume of gas (Mco to be purchased for resale from
all non-affiliated sources, LSG-D company used, LSG-D lost and
unaccounted-for, and retention during such month;
EACSW = Estimated average cost of gas (Dollars) in storage as applied to gas to
be withdrawn from storage during the month;
2
(4ww'
ETGWS = Estimated total gas to be withdrawn from storage (Mcf) during the
month;
EACSI = Estimated average cost of gas (Dollars) to be injected into storage
during the month;
ETGIS = Estimated total gas to be injected into storage (Mcf) during the
month; and,
EEF = Estimated equalization fee revenue allocated to city gate deliveries to
be received from industrial and other customers contracting for
transportation service.
NOTE: ETCOGA, ETCOGN, ETGPA, ETGPN shall be based on gas to be purchased per
books by LSG-T for resale, including all out -of -period adjustments, LSG-D company
used, LSG-D lost and unaccounted-for, and retention by LSP under the LSG/LSP
transportation arrangement less: 1) purchases for off -system sales (Dollars and Mcf)
and 2) purchases attributable to NGPA §311(b) sales (Dollars and Mcf). These
amounts shall also include costs attributable to the compression, gathering, treating,
or transportation of gas purchased for resale, LSG-D company use, LSG-D lost and
unaccounted-for, and retention by LSP under the LSG%LSP transportation
arrangement prior to the receipt of such gas on the facilities of LSP.
(Schedule A of monthly city gate rate filing)
C. Correction Calculation for Estimated iyfonthly Gas Purchase Cost
A correction calculation will be made in the second month following the billing month for
which EMGPC was included in the EMCGR. The same calculation described in Paragraph B, supra.,
will be made using actual per books data for the billing month related to an EMGPC to determine
the actual gas purchase cost for that billing month. The actual gas purchase cost for that billing
month will be subtracted from the achieved gas purchase cost recovered in the billing month to
determine the correction amount to include in the Correction Account. The achieved.gas purchase
cost recovery for the billing month will be determined by dividing the EMGPC by the ECGD for the
billing month to detenmine a per Mcf factor, with that per Mcf factor being multiplied by the actual
city gate deliveries for the billing month.
(Schedule G of monthly city gate rate filing)
D. Estimated and Actual Monthly Allocation Factors
LSG-T shall calculate the Estimated and Actual Monthly Allocation Factors (EMAF and
AMAF) according to the following formulae:
EMAF = EPCGD / EAV
Where:
NJ
AMAF = APCGD / AAV
EPCGD = Estimated volume of gas purchased to support city gate deliveries for
the billing month, defined as estimated city gate deliveries plus
estimated retention associated with city gate service less estimated
storage withdrawals plus estimated storage injections;
EAV = Estimated total gas purchase volume available for delivery to all
customers during the billing month, not including any volumes
excluded in the determination of total gas purchased as described in
the Note in Paragraph B, supra;
APCGD = Actual volume of gas purchased to support city gate deliveries for the
billing month, defined as city gate deliveries plus retention associated
with city gate service less storage withdrawals plus storage injections;
and,
AAV = Actual total gas purchase volume available for delivery to all
customers during the billing month, not including any volumes
excluded in the determination of total gas purchased as described in
the Note in Paragraph B, supra.
(Schedule H of the monthly city gate rate filing)
E. Gas Acquisition Costs
Gas Acquisition Costs (GAC) for any month shall be determined according to the following
formula:
GAC = AGAC / 12
LIR
4
31
Where:
AGAG = Test year gas acquisition costs, including the costs of Gas Supply
Services, the return on the test year value of working gas in storage
and associated deferred federal income taxes, the return on cash
working capital, and associated taxes, allocated to city gate deliveries.
(Schedule B, Line 1, of the monthly city gate rate filing)
F. Correction Calculation for Gas Acquisition Costs
A correction calculation will be made in the second month following the billing month for
which GAC was included in the EMCGR. GAC will be divided by ECGD for the billing month to
determine the per Mcf gas acquisition cost to have been recovered during the billing month. That
price per Mcf will then be multiplied by the actual city gate deliveries for the billing month to
determine the actual gas acquisition costs recovered during the billing month. The difference
between the amount of gas acquisition costs recovered during the billing month and the amount of
gas acquisition costs to have been recovered during the billing month will be included in the
Correction Account.

G. Estimated Pipeline Delivery Charges
Estimated pipeline delivery charges for any month shall be determined according to the
following formula:
EPDC = EBC + EUC + EEC
Where:
EBC = Base monthly charge of $2,083,422 for up to an average daily
delivery of 135,000 MMBtu for city gate service during the month;
EUC = Usage charge of $0.0097 per MMBtu delivered for estimated city
gate service in a month; and,
EEC = Excess charge of $0.5074 per MMBtu for estimated city gate
deliveries in excess of an average daily delivery of 135,000 MMBtu
in a month.

H. Correction Calculation for Estimated Pipeline Delivery Charges
A correction calculation shall be made in the second month following the billing month for
which EPDC was included in the EMCGR. Actual pipeline delivery charges for the billing month
will be determined based on the base monthly charge, usage charge, and excess charge applied to
the actual city gate deliveries during the billing month. The achieved level of pipeline delivery
charges during the billing month will be determined by dividing the estimated pipeline delivery
charges by the ECGD to determine the per Mcf pipeline delivery charges to have been recovered
during the billing month. The achieved level of pipeline delivery charges per Mcf will be multiplied
times the actual level of city gate deliveries in the billing month to determine the achieved level of
pipeline delivery charges in the billing month. The achieved level will be subtracted from the actual
charges for the billing month to determine the correction amount to include in the Correction
Account.
(Schedule C, Lines 7 - 13, of the monthly city gate rate filing)
I. Storage Charges
Storage Charges PSC will be a set amount per month according to the following formula:
g g( ) P g g
Where:
SC = SCC + SDC
SCC = Storage capacity charge of $680,532 per month each month of the
year and
SDC = Storage deliverability charge of $1,349,474 per month. for the months
of November through March.
(Schedule D, Lines 1 - 3, of the monthly city gate rate filing)
J. Correction Calculation for Storage Charges
A correction calculation will be made in the second month following the billing month in
which a SC was included in the EMCGR. The SC will be divided by ECGD to determine the per
Mcf pipeline storage charges to have been recovered during the billing month. That price per Mcf
will then be multiplied by the actual city gate deliveries in the billing month to determine the actual
pipeline storage charges recovered during the billing month. The achieved pipeline storage charges

recovered during the billing month will be subtracted from the actual pipeline storage charges for
the billing month to determine the correction amount to include in the Correction Account.
(Schedule D, Lines 4 - 9, of the monthly city gate rate filing.
K. Estimated Working Gas in Storage Carrying Cost Adjustment
The Estimated Change in Working Gas in Storage Carrying Costs (EWGSCC) for any month
shall be determined according to the following formula:
Where:
EWGSCC = (EVWGS - TYVWGS) * PRR
EVWGS = Estimated value of working gas in storage for the billing month
calculated by adding the impact of estimated injections and
withdrawals from storage for the present month and for the billing
month for which the EWGSCC is being calculated to the value of the
working gas in storage for the month prior to the present month;
TYVWGS = Test year value of working gas in storage; and,
PRR = Pre-tax rate of return (as adjusted for federal income taxes and the
state utility tax) divided by 12 to determine the monthly change in
carrying cost associated with the change in the value of the working
gas in storage.
(Schedule E, Lines 1 - 11)
L. Correction Calculation for Estimated Change in Working Gas in Storage Carrying Costs
A correction calculation shall be made in the second month following the billing month in
which an EWGSCC was included in the EMCGR. The EWGSCC will be divided by EQGD for the
billing month to determine the per Mcf working gas in storage carrying cost change to have been
recovered during the billing month. That price per Mcf will then be multiplied by the actual city gate
deliveries ih the billing month to determine the achieved level of recovery during the billing month.
The amount actually to have been recovered will be determined by subtracting the test year value
of working gas in storage from the actual value of working gas in storage at the end of the billing
month, and multiplying that amount by PRR. The amount actually recovered during the billing
month will be subtracted from the amount to have been recovered to determine the correction
amount to include in the Correction Account.

N. Other Provisions
Any incorporated city or town served by LSG may file a protest within ten days after the
filing of the MCGR Statement. Upon filing such protest, the Railroad Commission may set a hearing
to determine the propriety and accuracy of the MCGR Statement. LSG shall have the burden of
proving the propriety of any element of the MCGR Statement challenged by the municipal
protestants. If the Commission determines that the MCGR should be either higher or lower than
reflected on the certified MCGR Statement, then LSG shall make a corresponding adjustment in the
MCGR Statement for the month following the issuance of the Commission's Final Order. Balances
in the existing (Docket 3543) accounts will be added to the Correction Account for recovery over
a two -month period of time.

Dear Mr. Hawk:
The Board of Directors of the Appraisal District will be considering the appointment of
members to the Appraisal Review Board (ARB). The ARB is a group of citizens appointed to
hear and resolve disputes between taxpayers and the appraisal district. There will be fifteen (15)
positions to be filled before training begins in early 1997. Some of the 15 positions will be filled
by reappointment of existing members whose terms expire December 31, 1996.
If you would like to make any recommendation of candidates, please submit them to the
Qe Board of Directors by December 2, 1996, if at all possible.
Candidates should have expressed their willingness to serve and have the time to devote to
the job. This is an extremely important position that has a direct effect on how taxpayers feel
about the property tax system and their right to have a fair hearing. Enclosed is a copy of the
resolution adopted by the Board of Directors which outlines the guidelines for appointment to the
Tarrant Appraisal Review Board. Candidates should provide a brief biography reflecting their
background and qualifications. There will be an orientation session for all interested and
recommended members to discuss duties, time commitment, compensation, and other items of
interest.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
