Agenda Item #6-A, Continued
Tennis Association has twelve different leagues with an average of 5 teams per league and
approximately 10 players on each term. It has never been so apparent that a tennis center is
vitally needed. It is already a scheduling nightmare to fit 600+ players on the few accessible
courts available. The drawbacks to the current court situation are: All of the housing
developments that have tennis courts also have restrictions on non-resident players; the Carroll
High School courts are in use 10 months out of the year from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. with high
school activities; the only two public courts in Southlake are in poor condition not to mention
that it is impossible to run any kind of tournament or events on two courts. She urged the City
Council to enhance the City of Southlake park system by including a premiere tennis facility to
improve the physical quality of life and help define the healthy lifestyle exhibited by the juniors,
adults and seniors, and making it available for all citizens to enjoy.
Scott Doran, 809 Mesquite Lane, Keller. Mr Doran stated he is a tennis coach at Carroll High
School. He stated they are currently working with the Southlake Tennis Association. He added
a center like this would help his program.
Elsie Perez, Tennis Association. Ms. Perez stated "Adventure Alley" would only be for kids
and the tennis facility would be for everyone.
Kathy Campbell, 1215 Concord, Grapevine. Ms. Campbell stated tennis is a lifetime sport. It
helped keep her off the streets and off drugs as a teen and will help others.
Pat Vallentiny, 705 Oak Hill Drive, Colleyville. Ms. Vallentiny identified herself as a tennis
player, urging Council to consider the tennis complex.
Leslie Bartlett, 1344 Ten Bar Trail, Southlake. Ms. Bartlett encouraged Council to act in favor
of a tennis complex, as it helps keep kids off the street.
Bob Reznik, 1782 Kingswood, Southlake. Mr. Reznik stated tennis is an affordable way to keep
kids interested far beyond twelve years of age.
Laura Suarez thanked Council for listening to their slide presentation and individual comments.
Councilmember Richarme stated two months ago this presentation was made
before the Parks and Recreation Board and Joint Utilization Committee: He
noted this was focused on as a Joint Utilization Project and something that
impacts all ages. It is on the priority list for JUC. They have to determine how
they can pay for this.
Both Mayor Fickes and Councilmember Richarme asked for profit and loss
statements from other such facilities. Fickes added, they will make a formal
request in the next three months for property for a tennis site.

Agenda Item #6-B, Presentation: Gary Hargett regarding Municipal Complex
Mr. Gary Hargett, 1111 South White Chapel Blvd., Southlake. Mr. Hargett presented some
alternative sites for a new City Municipal Complex. A copy of the information presented by
Mr. Hargett is hereby attached to the minutes. Mr. Hargett asked that the following statement
be included in the minutes, "1580 East Highland is a 27.41 acre tract at $25,000 per acre. This
property purchase vs Timarron would give the city an additional 12.638 acres and save taxpayers
$455,151. Timarron property is priced at 3.67 times TAD appraisal. Suitable unimproved
property can be bought at the average undeveloped range that could result in a taxpayer savings
of$823,639.45".
Sharon Hobbs, 107 Sweet Street, Southlake. Ms. Hobbs stated she concurs with Mr. Hargett.
She has never heard of anyone paying over $33,000 per acre. She does not think F.M. 1709
is the center of town. She has been in on a lot of discussions. F.M. 1709 is where the traffic
will be, north of SH 114 is a much better area.
Rick Stacy, 1000 West Southlake Blvd., Southlake. Mr. Stacy stated the property being
considered is too expensive, adding, "we are fixing to burn a lot of money". He feels there is
no rush unless the Council knows something the public does not know. Stacy commented since
the decision has been made to purchase this property, his phone has been ringing off the wall.
He asked Council to take another look and inform the citizens.
Amber Hall, 1002 Dominion, Southlake. Ms. Hall stated she is opposed to City Hall being so
close to her home, adding, they have small children and have concerns.
Betty Springer, 1024 Mission Drive, Southlake. Ms. Springer stated she decided to come to
Council because of a recent mail-out and a posturing for political reasons. She thanked City
Council, as she has sat up there, and feels Council is setting there for the right reasons. They
were elected by the people to represent the people and make these kinds of decisions on behalf
of the city. The suggestion that Council and the Mayor are doing something underhanded is not
right. If we all used TAD valuations on property we would be bankrupt tomorrow. The 7 acres
across from residences would not be a popular site. The land was purchased for public park
use, so residents expect to see parks there. Ms. Springer commented if Council looked at
numerous properties and still feel this is the best property, go forward!! The City has been
looking for City Hall sites for years and years. If City Council does not do something in the
near future, it will be even more costly.
Larry Fulton, 100 Chapel Downs, Southlake. Mr. Fulton stated he was here one year ago when
the City was looking at the Kasper property. He noted that Council is following the criteria that
was given to them by the residents
and he does support the Council. He asked the citizens to be vigilant to Council.

Lloyd O. Latta Jr., Randol Mill Road, Southlake. Mr. Latta, a former Mayor and first City
Manager for the City stated he has been active in city affairs for the past twenty years. This
decision to purchase the property is a tough one, and it doesn't get any easier. As Mayor, he
bought water tower sites. That was also a tough decision. He asked Council to make public as
much as possible and act with diligence.
Mayor Fickes stated about one and a half years ago he appointed a committee to
look at municipal complex sites. In the meeting with the School Board they
looked at a fifty-acre site on North White Chapel Blvd., for a campus type
facility. About four hundred residents thought it was not a good site. Council
got a lot of input from that group of residents. The Council committee followed
their criteria, including: centrally located; direct access to major thoroughfares;
give the community a property of a size that would take the growth to full build-
out, not a site we would build out in 5-10 years. Indications from the CISD are
that they would be interested in a joint use facility. This site provides the
opportunity that would be in keeping with what the community has developed.
This property is developed land with the water, sewer and road. The property
submitted by Mr. Hargett is in the centerline of the DFW Airport runway,
located in a residential area with inadequate thoroughfares to the site. The
search committee looked at numerous sites and the Timarron/Richards site offered
the best criteria and needs of the residents.
Councilmember Sally Hall referenced the two meetings she had with Mr. Hargett.
She referenced the central location, stating the majority of the people will be
living south of SH 114. She stated again that Byron Nelson Parkway will be put
in by the developer, as well as landscaping, which will be watered by the
Developer. The school district is changing the location of new schools to the
south. She stated she feels this is the best location for a Municipal Complex.
Councilmember Richarme stated he had not planned to say anything, but noted
that he is one of the cheapest people in Southlake. He does not like to spend or
waste money. He was not on the committee, however, he does not take things
on face value. He checked them out himself, stating this is not a bad deal.
There is a lot of misinformation going around. The site is good. He supports the
recommendation of the Council committee.
Councilmember Ron Maness stated he wanted to set aside the merits for and
against. He commended Hargett for getting people involved. He is concerned
that it takes something like this to get people involved.

Dennis McGrath, 2403 North White Chapel Blvd., Southlake. Mr. McGrath stated he believes
it is time Southlake got a new city hall. He feels there are people out there that will support a
bond issue. What is the best site!! He referenced the 1990 report from Allen & Buie, stating,
the city needs to establish a build out number. The number will affect everything we will do.
Milton Barath, 1647 Oak Lane North, Southlake. Mr. Barath stated when he got the flyer in
the mail, he was worried. He suggested for the value, he would sooner buy the twenty-five
acres. Let's get city hall where it should be. Go for lower priced property and use the rest of
the money on his street!!!
Cynda Mast, 2415 Taylor Street, Southlake. Ms. Mast stated what concerns her most is that
the issue is being reduced to square foot cost. She stated she lives on the north side of town.
She knows what undeveloped land means. Major facilities need to be near thoroughfares and
the north side of town cannot handle the traffic. We need a library! Ms. Mast stated she feels
to scatter facilities here and there is penny wise and pound short. If we have a property now,
we need to move forward.
Council adjourned for recess at 9:25 p.m.
Council returned to open session at 9:35 p.m.
Agenda Item #7-C, Ordinance No. 654, 2nd reading, Authorizing the issuance of City of
Southlake Certificates of Obligation, Series 1995.
Lou Ann Heath, Director of Finance, presented Ordinance No. 654, for second reading. She
stated at the City 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. This
ordinance was presented to Council on first reading to issue the $290,000 certificates of
obligation. The resolution had indicated an amount not to exceed $350,000; the actual amount
of the certificates will be $290,000.
Ms. Heath stated 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. 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.
The public hearing resulted with no comments from the audience.

Cove, Austin, in favor; Wetzel Family Partnership, 102 Westlake Drive, Austin, in favor; and
Roy E. Lee, 2620 E. Southlake Blvd., in favor.
Greg Last, Director of Community Development, stated the applicant asked to
clarify their intent on the bufferyard on F.M. 1709. They are showing a 25'
bufferyard and a 20' bufferyard is all that is requirement. They intended for the
remaining 5' to count toward the interior landscaping. If Council should approve
their plat, Mr. Last stated he does not want the 25' bufferyard counted as the 20'
required. They will not be able to use the additional 5' strip for interior
landscape requirements.
Ernest Hedgecoff, consulting engineer for Liberty Bank. They have reviewed the staff
comments and are in concurrence with the need for the bufferyard, adding, we mislabeled this
drawing, counting the 5' as part of the interior landscaping requirement. They have asked that
the 500' separation for driveways be waived. They moved the driveways further to the east,
making a greater separation to the driveways to the west. They reviewed the staff comments
and will make the necessary revisions to the drawing. They also asked that the driveway throat
entrance requirement be waived.

Plat for Huse Homeplace, subject to the third (3) preliminary plat review summary dated June

end, no street lights, private equestrian easement, easement maintenance by Huse Homeplace
Homeowners's Association, and eleven (11) lots. This revised preliminary plat proposes six (6)
lots and a new lot configuration.
Tom Matthews, applicant, stated the new configuration with six lots, range from 1.97 to 3.11
acres each lot. They feel this is in keeping and compatible with the neighborhood and they wish
approval with a private, shared access road.
Councilmember Richarme asked what kind of standards will be used on the road?
Greg Last replied, "above and beyond private road."
Councilmember Wambsganss complimented Mr. Matthews on the revised project,
however, expressed two concerns: access to Corps. land and the driveway.
Mr. Matthews commented on the six (6) lot addition. He mentioned there is no equestrian
easement that goes to corp. property. He stated he feels with lots as large as these, someone
will probably have horses, and everyone can get to the Corps. property on their lot. With the
eleven (11) lot subdivision, there were no trails.
Allen Taylor, City Attorney stated when asked do we have an option of requiring a bicycle
__. ' easement, "the City has the right to require a bicycle/equestrian easement. The
446

City would have to maintain it if we had an easement. There would be an issue with the Corps.
of Engineers. We would not control the easement, the Corps. would."
Mr. Matthews stated with this plan, everyone will be satisfied.
Agenda Item #2-A, Executive Session, Continued
Mayor Fickes informed the audience that Council would be returning to executive session
pursuant to the Open Meetings Act, Chapter 551 of the Texas Government Code, Section

Council adjourned to executive session at 11:15 p.m.
Council returned to open session at 11:45 p.m.
Agenda Item #2-B, Action Necessary/Executive Session, Continued
No action was necessary as the result of the executive session.
Agenda Item #8-F, Continued
Mr. Matthews asked the City Council to approve this plat with the stipulation that there is an
acceptable pedestrian easement that is a City of Southlake public pedestrian easement; (ie, it is
the City's responsibility to erect the trail, maintain the trail that borders on it or whatever is
appropriate) and an acceptable location that Mr. Matthews and the Park Department can work
out.
City Attorney, Allen Taylor, stated the Park Department would probably be a
good source of approval because they would have the most input.
Curtis Hawk, City Manager, stated we would need to talk with the Director of
the Parks and Recreation Department, however, he feels the easement would just
need to meet the City ordinances and regulations, and not be the responsibility of
a particular department.
Allen Taylor commented that he feels approval should be subject to a requirement
that a pedestrian or equestrian access easement be reflected on the plat that would
be usable for pedestrian or equestrian that connects the Corps. property to a
portion of a public right-of-way, or in the alternative, the existing trail system
serving the Harbor Oaks Development.

Agenda Item #8-H, Ordinance No. 480-T, 1st reading amending the Zoning Ordinance No.
480 to allow for temporary outside storage for retail uses.
Karen Gandy, Zoning Administrator, led the discussion on the first reading of Ordinance No.
480-T, amending Zoning Ordinance No. 480 to allow for temporary outside storage for retail
uses, adding that the City Attorney's office has prepared the caption and legal boiler-plate of the
ordinance and will complete the text of the ordinance after discussion of the proposed
amendment during the first reading. Ms. Gandy stated there are two amendments to the Zoning
Ordinance which staff was directed to pursue based on specific occurrences. The outside storage
issue was raised by Wal-Mart who requested that ten (10) containers (approximately
8'X40'X10') be stored outside their building along the west property line of their property for
the purpose of layaway storage from October 1-December 26. The second issue, placement of
satellite dishes at service stations, was raised during the investigation of a code enforcement
complaint received regarding the visibility of the satellite dish at the Texaco station located at
the northwest corner of North White Chapel Blvd., and West Southlake Blvd.
Ms. Gandy commented this was in violation to the Corridor Study. She does not
see this type use being anywhere but on the corridor.
Mike Carroll, General Manager, Wal-Mart, Southlake. Mr. Carroll thanked the City Council
for letting them use outside storage while this ordinance is being processed. He stated there is
not enough room in the store for holiday layaway, and it is not economical for Wal-Mart to
build this small building.

Agenda Item #8-H, Continued
Ms. Gandy stated she proposes this use be with a Specific Use Permit in the "C-
3" Zoning District, so that Council could put conditions on the permit and set a
time limit.
Councilmember Hall stated she is concerned with the City's ability to control the
inevitable of what is seasonable and acceptable.
Councilmember Muller stated a lot of work went into the Corridor Study and it
does not allow for outside storage in the corridor. She asked that the record
reflect that the hour is late and this item has been postponed several times. We
have had citizens who wanted to participate and its 12:30 a.m. They are very
concerned. She asked that the ordinance be tabled and be considered at another
time, at a reasonable hour.
Mayor Fickes suggested because this is a first reading we go ahead and approve
the first reading, with the second reading being the public hearing and place it
near the beginning of the meeting. Mayor Fickes also stated we have to
recognize that if we are going to have businesses coming in to the community,
there are a lot of things in business, with inventory, and such and that goes into
trying to make a profit. We are trying to discourage the outside users, but we
need to try to work with them, and come to solutions that will benefit everybody.
We cannot ignore this issue with the amount of money coming in with sales tax.
We need the businesses.
Councilmember Richarme stated Wal-Mart is here today and they have planted
greenery as discussed and will put in the fence. Anything we can do to work with
Wal-Mart to help them get to the standard of appearance that we would like to
get to, we need to do. If we trade that for letting them use storage containers,
we are not hurting ourselves.
Motion was made to approve the first reading of Ordinance No. 480-T.

Agenda Item #10-A, Developer Agreement. for Stonebury Addition.
Bob Whitehead, Director of Public Works, stated the usual requirements for cash escrow, letters
of credit, performance bonds or payment bonds are stated within the agreement. There are 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 are completed.
This part of the agreement will become "standard" language for all
�', future developer agreements.
