PUBLIC COMMENTS:
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MINUTES OF THE MAY 27, 1997 MEETING PAGE 2
Robin Jones, Park Board member. Ms. Jones gave a history update on what the Park Board has
done to date.
Carol Lee Hamilton, Park Board member. Ms. Hamilton stated we need all developers to pay
homage. We need an ordinance that gets the Park Board into a the system sooner. She stated 600
acres of land is still needed for parks in order to meet the projections. Private space and amenities
does not help the Park Board develop neighborhood parks.
Doug Fierce, Park Board member. Mr. Fierce stated we want an integrated park system, tying
the trails together. They need to be tied together with the help of the developers. The Master
Trail Plan ties the City together.
Gary Beyer, Park Board member. Mr. Beyer expressed concerns about commercial developers
hesitating to come to Southlake if they have to give land. We should accept nothing less.
Sherry Berman, Park Board member. Ms. Berman stated the Planning and Zoning Commission
asked what are we doing with Bob Jones Park. This park cannot meet all these thin gs because of
the natural resources that the Corp. of Engineers has to protect. Bob Jones Park can be master
planned. We need more land for practice fields.
Vicki Johnson, Park Board member. Ms. Johnson stated the main emphasis is we need more land
for parks, no matter how much money comes in the SPDC for land, we will never be able to keep
up. We need to stick with our Park Plan and the Master Plan. Why should developers get credi t
for private parks? We will not scare off the developers.
Martin Schelling, 2665 North White Chapel Boulevard, Southlake. Mr. Schelling made comments
with regard to the proposed ordinance stating he is an advocate of the parks but he has concerns
as we have a lot of needs in the City. The needs outreach our budget. He is concerned that we
come up with a system. He stated he feels if the park is not adequate, don't give the developer
credit. Schelling stated he is for parks but doesn't want to "gig" the last guy in town.
Larry Goldstein, Park Board member. Mr. Goldstein stated most of what goes into the private
addition is not being used by those who move into the addition. Let's give credit to where credit
is due! More than one thousand kids are signed up for baseball and soccer. Those kids are using
public parks and not the neighborhood parks.
After discussion, motion was made to approve the revision to Ordinance No. 483 -F, and on page
8G -4, accept the Park Board recommendation of one acre of Park land to every twenty -five (25)
residential units; 7.032 Non - Residential, that we accept the Planning and Zoning Commission
recommendation of one acre of park land for every fifty (50) non - residential gross acres of
development; on page 8G -6, on the calculation of fees in subsection 2 under paragraph A, change
that from tax value to fair market value; on (a) under 2, that we indicate that land must be donated
to the City but upon showing of hardship, a variance or waiver may be given by the City,

allowing the developer to acquire land of an equal value in other areas designated by the City or
in the alternative, the City may allow the developer to pay the equivalent of the cost of land in
their subdivision; on the non - residential (paragraph B) accept the Planning and Zoning
Commission recommendation; on page 8G -7 Section 7.06 Private Parks, when a developer
develops a private park, they may be given a credit up to and not to exceed 25 % of the required
dedication; if it is a semi- public use that is acceptable to the City, they will be given a credit not
to exceed 50% of their dedication; for the first reading on item 7.07, change the first may to
shall per the Park Board recommendation, and leave the balance as is for the first reading.
