REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL
SEPTEMBER 16, 1975
The City Council of the City of Southlake, Texas, met in regu-
lar session in the Council Chamber of City Hall, at 667 North
Carroll Avenue in Southlake on Tuesday, September 16, 1975,
with the following members present:
Wade Booker, Mayor
Sam Davis, Mayor Pro Tem
W. 0. Nunn, Councilman
Billy Joe Knox, Councilman
Ben Berry, Councilman
Absent: James H. Winfrey, Councilman
Staff members present: William D. Campbell, City Attorney
Police Chief Douglas R. Hughes
Fire Chief R. P. Steele
R. W. Mussina, Planning & Zoning Chairman
Also present: Jack Evans, representing Ruth Harris
Norma Muir
Harold Knight.
Mayor Booker called the meeting to order at 7:30 P.M. The invo-
cation was given by Councilman Nunn. The Minutes of the last
regular meeting were approved as read.
The 1976 Budget, was the first matter put before the Council.
There being no discussion, Councilman Knox moved that Ordinance
Number 222, the 1976 Budget, be approved and adopted; seconded
by Councilman Davis. Motion passed unanimously. (Said Ordi-
nance attached hereto and made a part hereof.)
The 1975 Tax Levy, set forth in Ordinance No. 223, was approved
and adopted on motion by Councilman Nunn; seconded by Council-
man Davis. Motion passed unanimously. (Said Ordinance attached
hereto and made a part hereof.)
ZA-75-4; the request of Ruth Harris for F District zoning on her
154
land along North Kimball Avenue, was next heard. The Mayor
advised the Council that the Planning & Zoning Commission has
recommended denial of this request. Mr. Jack Evans, a real
estate agent representing Mrs. Harris, was invited to speak.
He asked the Council not to accept the Planning & Zoning Com-
mission recommendation stating that the land was not too far
from present industrial zoning. Mr. R. W. Mussina, Chairman
of the Planning & Zoning Commission stated the reasons for
not having F District zoning at this time; one such reason
being that the City already had hundreds of acres of land so
zoned but not actually used in accordance therewith. Mr. Harold
Knight, 1749 East Highland, Southlake, Texas, an adjacent pro-
perty owner, addressed the Council voicing his objections to
granting the request. No others being present to speak for or
against the request, Councilman Knox moved that the Planning &
Zoning Commission's recommendation for denial be accepted;
seconded by Councilman Davis. Motion passed unanimously.
Parks & Recreation Board report was given by Councilman Berry
who informed the Council of the necessity of adopting the pre-
pared park plan. He advised that the estimated cost of the
first phase of development, grading work, is between $8,000 and
$10,000. Councilman Berry moved that the Bi-Centennial Park plan
prepared by Carter & Burgess, Inc., under the direction of the
Parks & Recreation Board, be approved; seconded by Councilman
Knox. Motion passed unanimously.
Ambulance Service for 1976 was next discussed. The Council
was of the general opinion that it would be best for the City
to contract on an independent basis with an ambulance company
and the City to bill for reimbursment. Discussion followed.
The Mayor asked for permission to discuss the matter with Mayor
Tate of Grapevine to continue the present subsidy, but, on a
basis of $300 a month or less for the City of Southlake. Council-
man Davis moved to give Mayor Booker authority to negotiate with
Mayor Tate for continuing the present ambulance contract on that
basis. More discussion followed whereupon Councilman Davis with-
drew that motion and then moved to give the Mayor authority to
contract for ambulance service in an amount not to exceed $300
monthly; seconded by Councilman Knox. Motion passed unanimously.
ZA-75-6, a request for Alcoholic Use District by Joe Wolf was
set for public hearing October 21, 1975. The Mayor informed the
Council that the Planning & Zoning Commission had recommended
approval.
RESOLUTION NO. 75-29, authorizing the Mayor to apply for funds
under the 701 Planning Assistance Program, was passed and ap-
proved on motion by Councilman Knox; seconded by Councilman
Davis. The motion passed unanimously.
POLICE DEPARTMENT REPORT was given by Councilman Nunn, who
asked for Council authorization to request bids on a 1976
Patrol Car. So moved Councilman Knox; seconded by Councilman
Davis. The motion passed unanimously.
FIRE DEPARTMENT REPORT was turned in by Mayor Booker in the
absence of Councilman Winfrey. Fire Chief Steele reminded
those present of the Miss Flame contest to be held September
20, 1975, at 8:00 P.M. in the Middle School Auditorium.
WATER DEPARTMENT REPORT was given by Councilman Davis who ad-
vised lightning had struck the electrical system on Well #1
and the necessary repairs had been made. He informed the
Council that the cost of such repairs were covered under the
City's insurance policy.
The Mayor called for approval of the bills presented as per the
attached list and asked that permission be given to pay the
routine bills prior to the close of the fiscal year which are
received before the next regular Council meeting. So moved
Councilman Knox; seconded by Councilman Davis. Motion passed
unanimously.
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned.

Honorable Council and Citizens:
To submit a budget which requires a 15~ increase in taxes is not a
pleasant task. And, yet, in spite of much effort in exerting stringency,
this is what must be done upon the adoption of the 1976 Budget. While
the City's emergency services, i.e., police and fire, will not be ex-
panded this year, this Budget does provide for ambulance service although
on a very limited basis. But, for the first time in the City's history,
there is provision for the beginning of work toward two goals the
development of parks and recreation and a sewer system.
Although the allotment of funds is limited, I am pleased that steps are
being taken to develop a city park where the youth of our community may
spend their time in meaningful activity. This Budget also provides for
the City's share of the cost of the engineering lay-out for the sewer
system. It goes without saying that this project is of major importance
to our City's future stability. While there are those who would quarrel
with these goals, I am confident that they are in the minority.
In summation, let me say that the 1976 Budget is a good budget in that
it reflects healthy signs of growth and development, and its strict ad-
herence will continue to keep our City on a sound financial path.
Sincerely,
Wade Booker
Mayor of the City of Southlake
