420

Agenda Item #5, Continued
projects to be bid. This project consists of extending the sanitary sewer that serves
Florence Elementary School, north along Harrell Drive to Vista Trails addition, then
down the center of each street in the addition. The project also includes the
reconstruction of each of the streets in the addition. As can be noted in the engineer's
bid tabulation, the low bid was over the engineer's estimate by $81,704. Staff
recommends that the City Council reject all bids for the project. This recommendation
is based upon the bids being over the engineer's estimate. Council further authorizes the
staff to advertise and rebid the proposed sewerage improvements, including street
reconstructing, Vista Trails Addition and include the Cimmarron Acres Sewer Project
as an addition to the rebids.

Agenda Item #6, Public Forum
No comments were received during the public forum.
Agenda Item #7-A, Ordinance No. 483-D, 2nd reading amending Subdivision Ordinance
No. 480 addressing clean up items.
Ordinance No. 483-D, 2nd reading, amending the Subdivision Ordinance No. 480 addressing
clean up items, was presented by Greg Last, Director of Community Development. Mr. Last
stated the first reading of this ordinance was approved by the City Council during the November
7, 1995 meeting with minor amendments to be made prior to the second reading.
Mayor Pro Tern Wambsganss stated the big issue here is that we do not want the
developer to go out and botch something prior to approval of the developer
agreement. He asked how much time is being lost by the developer when he
cannot get onto the property and start moving dirt prior to the developer
agreement being approved. These are the two policy issues that Council is facing
here, and all of council is trying to decide what is the right balance here.
Councilmember Hall stated she reported to the Council two meetings ago she has
seen numerous situations where serious infractions on existing residents have
occurred, incurring damage to their property. As the result of those four
occurrences, she presented to Council reasons for prohibiting the moving
421

Agenda Item #7-A, Continued
of dirt prior to approval of the developer agreement. She stated she understands the
policy now is "at their own risk" and it is turning out that it is at the risk of the existing
property owners nearby. She feels if this were allowed, the wording would be so vague,
and so open to interpretation, that it would undermine the request, so she does not know
what wording would work.
It was determined that the amount of time from approval of plat to developer agreement is
approximately two months. Bob Whitehead stated the Developer Agreement has an erosion
control provision in it.
The Public Hearing resulted with no comments from the audience.
Greg Last read into the record suggested word changes regarding the moving of dirt prior to
approval of the Developer Agreement, including, "unless noted otherwise, no earth work,
grading, utility, street or drainage improvement construction or any public or private
,- _ improvements shall be allowed until the developer receives approval of a final plat, and upon
approval of a final plat, a developer's agreement has been approved by the City Council.
Motion was made to approve Ordinance No. 483-D, 2nd reading, as amended on page 7A-10,
as noted by the statement made by Greg Last above.

Agenda Item #8-A, Ordinance No. 480-T, 1st reading, amending the Zoning Ordinance No.
480 to allow for temporary outside storage for retail uses.
Mayor Pro Tern Wambsganss stated because Ordinance No. 480-T, amending the Zoning
Ordinance No. 480 to allow for temporary outside storage for retail uses, was denied by the
Planning and Zoning Commission it will take a super-majority vote of the Council in order to
be approved. As two Councilmembers are absent tonight, he suggested this item be tabled until
December 19, 1995 City Council meeting.
Motion was made to table Ordinance No. 480-T, 1st reading, time certain December 19, 1995
City Council meeting.

Agenda Item #8-B, Ordinance No. 483-E, 1st reading amending the Subdivision Ordinance.
addressing private streets
Greg Last, Director of Community Development, led the discussion regarding the amendment
to Ordinance No. 483-E, amending the Subdivision Ordinance addressing private streets. Mr.
Last stated the intent of this revision is: 1) to alert prospective property owners that routine City
services may not be provided or, if provided, may be at reduced service levels; 2) provide
necessary easements for emergency access and utilities; 3) provide for annual inspection and
insure repair of streets if the homeowner association fails to do so; and 4) establish entrance
setback standards to minimize congestion on adjoining public streets.
Mayor Pro Tern Wambsganss asked Mr. Last to go through the ordinance briefly,
and asked what would be the requirements of a private street community.
Councilmember Richarme asked if it is possible to draw the distinction between
private streets or private gated streets. He added, he has no difficulty with
private streets.
Councilmember Hall stated she understood that from this point on, no new gated
communities would be allowed. The only time would be if 100% of citizens in
an addition are in favor of gated streets.
Councilmember Muller stated she does not want to see private streets unless they
are gated or manned.
Greg Last listed a summary of items to be considered:
1) private streets only if gated or manned entries,
2) delete item A-1 referencing new developments,
3) revise criteria to refer to existing retrofit only,
4) modify definition of existing subdivisions to ensure 75% of homes constructed.

Agenda Item #8-C, Ordinance No. 650, 1st reading, Official Names of Streets.
Greg Last, Director of Community Development, introduced Ordinance No. 650 for first
reading, regarding street name inconsistencies within the City. The City was approached by
citizens in the Raintree area about the inconsistencies in their area. Research was accomplished
by reviewing the City base map, posted street name signs, area plats, property deeds, and
official Post Office addresses. These documents did not reveal a consensus of names for any
of the streets with the exception of Rainforest Court. For the most part, the residential
j "additions" in the area were created prior to the subdivision ordinance by metes and bounds
descriptions, and as a result, the street name inconsistencies have "evolved" over time. The
street names inconsistencies were discussed at a SPIN #6 meeting and unanimity of names was
reached from those present.
Councilmember Richarme stated he is glad that the SPIN group is involved and
that the City is working with them.
Councilmember Muller stated she would like a person to check with someone on
Raintree before the 2nd reading, regarding the street name.
Motion was made to move forward with checking Raintree, and approval given to 1st reading.

Agenda Item #8-D, Ordinance No. 654, 1st reading, Authorizing the Issuance of City of
Southlake, Certificates of Obligations, Series 1995.
Director of Finance, Lou Ann Heath, stated at the Council meeting held on November 28,
Resolution No. 95-93, was approved authorizing the publication of a Notice of Intent to issue
Certificates of Obligation for an amount not to exceed $350,000. This ordinance is presented
to Council on first reading to issue the $290,000 certificates of obligation. These certificates
and cash are to be exchanged for the purchase of land from J.W. and Constance Richards.
According to the purchase and sale agreement, the City is paying $439,607 for the land with
$149,607 cash due by December 20, 1995. Mr. Richards desired a qualified tax-exempt
instrument for the remainder. The certificates of obligation to be held by the Richards will
satisfy that requirement. The certificates will have 5.5% annual interest payable quarterly for
five years beginning March 20, 1996, with the entire principal due at the end of the five years.
Texas Commerce Bank, Dallas, will serve as the paying agent on the transaction.
Gary Hargett, 1111 South White Chapel Blvd., Southlake. Mr. Hargett presented a letter dated
December 5, 1995 to Council regarding his proposal to the City to purchase the Brunson
property, 9.85 acres on F.M. 1709 backing up to the City property. A copy of the letter from
Mr. Hargett is hereby attached to the minutes of the meeting. Mr. Hargett stated the first time
he heard of this proposed purchase was from a newspaper article. He stated he feels the
citizens should be included in this decision to purchase property for a future municipal complex.
Dennis McGrath, 2403 North Carroll Avenue, Southlake. Mr. McGrath stated over the past
several years, every time the City buys property, it has not been met with favor by the citizens.
He feels this should tell Council something.
Rex Potter, 303 Waterford Court, Southlake. Mr. Potter stated he is getting concerned that we
will never get a municipal facility. He is concerned with taxes like everyone else, but is also
concerned with the City moving on and getting the facilities that we need. He is concerned with
what the City will do with the current facility. Council was elected to make these kinds of
decisions and they need to move on. Mr. Potter stated he appreciates the opportunity to
comment on this issue.
Councilmember Hall stated Council has been elected to make these decisions, as
we have discussed before, the property decision went to a committee. The
committee looked at thirty (30) pieces of property and narrowed it down to five
(5) where they actually had presentations. There are 200 letters, which are public
information, where citizens have requested the property be purchased in the
location that is being considered. Since 1989, Council has been committed to joint
utilization and we are dealing with one wallet, trying to look at sites that will
meet the needs of the City and school, and instead of having two auditoriums, we
425
Regular City Council Meeting Minutes
December 5, 1995
page nine
Agenda Item #8-D, Continued
will have one, for use by both City and school. Mr. Hargett sent out his letter proposing
property that will not work. The property being considered has three access points to
it, Byron Nelson Parkway, F.M. 1709 and a road that can circulate throughout the
facility. F.M. 1709 is being taken care of by the Highway Department at no expense to
the City. Street lighting will be provided by the developer, water line and sewer line
will be provided. Ms. Hall stated you have to look at build-out to see that we have
sufficient amount of property for the city, not just for immediate needs. You can always
sell it off if you find you do not need it.
Councilmember Hall stated Mr. Hargett is proposing a four story building. That
would open the door to others to do the same.
Councilmember Richarme stated we don't know where Mr. Hargett came up with
a four story building. The City hired architects to determine what we need today,
in five years and at ultimate build-out. He hopes that people do not look at this
as just a city hall. We are talking about property for a municipal complex. He
stated he hopes this will include a library.
Dennis McGrath, 1203 North White Chapel Blvd. Mr. McGrath referenced the 1/2 cent sales
tax and what uses could be built with those funds. He stated he feels there is a problem with
joint utilization, and mixing of the funds between the city and school.
Councilmember Evans stated none of the funds from the 1/2 cent sales tax will
be used for this project.
Motion was made to approve Ordinance No. 654, 1st reading.

Agenda Item #11-B, Discussion: Ordinance No. 653, Creating a Senior Advisory
Commission.
Kim McAdams, Director of Park and Recreation, stated in a memorandum to the City Manager,
that in a joint meeting with the MetroPort Meals on Wheels and the Parks and Recreation
Department, an idea was formulated for the City to have a Senior Advisory Commission, much
like the Southlake Youth Advisory Commission to comment on issues facing seniors in our
community. The idea is to have a council-appointed commission of six members, two year
staggered terms, and hold public open meetings monthly. The seniors would discuss and
comment on issues facing seniors, recreational programming, a senior center, transportation, etc.
Ms. McAdams suggested possibly the new Administrative Assistant would be the liaison with
the commission, prepare the agenda, and keep the minutes and records.
Lloyd O. Latta Jr., 1580 Randol Mill Road, Southlake. Mr. Latta stated he has discussed the
concept of having a senior advisory commission with Kim McAdams and other seniors in the
community and feels this is a way for the seniors to become a part of the community. He had
seen a copy of the proposed ordinance and feels it looks good as structured. He recommended
that the membership be divided by having two members in the fifty age bracket; two members
in the sixty age bracket; two members in the seventy age bracket; and possibly two members
in the eighty age bracket. Mr. Latta commented as a long term goal, the seniors of the
community would like to see a facility to meet in.
Mayor Pro Tem Wambsganss stated the suggestions should be made a part of the
ordinance and brought back for first reading.
Kelly Bradley, 2275 Precinct Line Road, Westlake. Mrs. Bradley stated they have a lot of
history developing senior citizen programs. The City is offering the facility and they are
providing a program.
Agenda Item #10-A, Developer Agreement. for Stonebury Addition.
Bob Whitehead, Director of Public Works, presented the Developer Agreement for Stonebury
Addition, stating the usual requirements for cash escrow, letters of credit, performance bonds
or payment bonds are stated within the agreement. He noted a few items in this agreement that
require Council attention:
* Section B, page 1 has been revised to remove use of temporary street
signs. For emergency purposes, Staff prefers to have permanent street
signs in place. Temporary street signs can be destroyed by inclement
weather. The release of remaining building permits has been changed
from completion of the streets to final acceptance of the Addition. This
will act as an incentive to the Developer to see that all remaining items
427
Regular City Council Meeting Minutes
December 5, 1995
page eleven
Agenda Item #10-A, Continued
are completed. This part of the agreement will become "standard" language for
all future developer agreements.
* Section D. Page 2 contains a redlined paragraph, which will become part of the
standard agreement. This language is necessary to avoid any confusion for future
developers who choose to use bar ditches within Southlake.
* Section A, page 10 requires the Developer to pay off-site drainage toward the box
culvert at West Continental in the amount of $9,673.60.
* Section B, page 10 stated that the Developer agrees to pay Park Fees in the
amount of $16,500 (33 lots X $500).
* Section C, page 10 states that the Developer agrees to pay the Perimeter Street
Fee in the amount of $48,117.50.
Michael Jones, 2001 West Irving Blvd., Irving. Mr. Jones, a representative of the developer,
asked for revisions to the developer agreement for impact fees.
Councilmember Hall stated Council was promised some funds would be placed
in escrow to take care of off-site drainage.
The meeting was held while the City Secretary presented the minutes of the City Council
meeting of July 18, 1995, which stated that the funds would be escrowed at the time of the
Developer Agreement.
Motion was made to table this agenda item, time certain December 19, 1995 in order for the
developer's applicant to discuss this issue with the developer regarding the funds placed in
escrow for off-site drainage.

Agenda Item #10-B, Developer Agreement for Monticello Estates, Phase II
Bob Whitehead, Director of Public Works, presented the Developer Agreement for Phase II of
Monticello Estates. Whitehead stated several items in this agreement require Council attention,
including:
428

Agenda Item #10-B, Continued
* Section B, page 1, has been revised to remove use of temporary
street signs. For emergency purposes, Staff prefers to have
permanent street signs in place. Temporary street signs can be
destroyed by inclement weather. The release of remaining
building permits has been changed from completion of the streets
to final acceptance of the Addition. This will act as an incentive
to the Developer to see that all remaining items are completed.
This part of the agreement will become "standard" language for all
future developer agreements.
•
* Section C, page 1, will waive the Developer from having to
present to the City a cash escrow, letters of credit, performance
bond or payment bond unless 10% release of lots are requested
before public utilities are accepted. This request has been allowed
during previous Monticello developments.
* Section D, page 2, contains a strikeout that will not require a street
maintenance bond to be furnished. The streets in this addition will
be private.
* A redlined paragraph has also been added, which will become part
of the standard agreement. It does not pertain to this addition
because the addition will contain curb and gutter, however, this
language is necessary to avoid any confusion for other
development within Southlake.
* Section F, page 2, contains additional redlines and strikeouts.
These changes are due to the private street facilities.
* Section D, paragraph one and two on page 5, contains additional
redlines and strikeouts due to provide streets. Also, note that the
City will not be responsible for any replacement of signs.
However, the City will replace standard signage and invoice the
Developer or Homeowners Association.

Agenda item #10-C, Authorizing the Mayor to send letters to' members of the Conference
Committee relative to proposed Federal Legislation Preempting Local Zoning Regulations.
The Assistant City Manager, Shana Yelverton, stated this item is on the agenda for the City
Council to decide how they would like to respond. As noted in the materials presented,
immediate letters to Congress outlining municipalities' position on the preceding issues are very
desirable.
Mayor Pro Tem Wambsganss stated he is not in favor of writing letters. Taking
someone else's opinion on something is not wise.
Councilmember Evans suggested we get information from Joe Barton and John
Dingle on this matter.
No action was taken on this issue, and staff was directed to proceed with getting information
from Joe Barton and John Dingle regarding the Federal Telecommunications Legislation.
