• REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL
JULY 7, 1970
The City Council of the City of Southlake Texas met in
regular session in the Council Chamber of City Hall on
Tuesday, July-7, 1970, with the following members present:
Wade Booker, Mayor Pro Tem
Thurman Hearn, Councilman
W. B. "Buddy" Brown, Councilman
Ralph Polson, Councilman
Billy Joe Knox, Councilman
Absent: J. L. Clow, Mayor
Also absent: William D. Campbell, City Attorney
Ma or Pro Tem Wade Booker called the meeting to order at
7: 5 p.m. The invocation was given by Rev. Gene Tyson of
White's Chapel Methodist Church.
The minutes were approved as read.
Fire Department Report was given by Chief Bob Steele (copy
• attached). He advised the Council it will be necessary to
purchase certain fittings for the fire trucks in order to
be able to operate them in conjunction with the new truck
which we are hoping to get from.Richland Hills.
Police Department Resort was given by Chief Doyle Ince
copy attached). He advised the Council the 167 patrol
car was in need of certain repairs. Councilman Polson ad-
vised the matter was being taken care of.
Base station radios for our Police Department were discussed
by Mr. Bob Bell of Bell Communcations Service. He advised
the Council he would work up details on prices and needs if
informed as to their thoughts on the matter, the purpose
tonight being to let Council know what is required at this
time by the F.C.C. and what is ccming in the future. Follow-
ing discussion, the Mayor Pro Tem thanked Mr. Bell for coming.
(Another meeting with Mr. Bell will be set up when his pro-
posals are ready for Council's consideration.)
COG meeting on July 8th regarding sewerage will be attended
by Councilmen Polson and Hearn and the City Secretary. The
City Secretary was requested to attend these meetings which
are pertinent to the City of Southlake when none of the
Council or the Mayor are able to attend in order to assure
Southlake~is represented.
A City Sales Tax was next discussed and the Mayor Pro Tem
asked that the Council be giving the matter some thought
for the near future. Councilman Polson moved that the City
Secretary get information on the same; seconded by Councilman
Brown. Motion tarried unanimously.
Water Rates Revision was asked for by Citizen J. C. Wood who
informed the Council he felt it fair for him to be charged
more than a residential rate for his trailer park but that
the Trailer Park Rate set by the Council recently was unfair
since he was the only one in Southlake paying it. Lengthy
discussion followed whereupon Mayor Pro Tem Booker suggested
further discussion be postponed until such time as the Council
has an opportunity to study the rates further.
The Council agreed to hear Mrs. Ben Muir,regarding her
1 property where an open ditch exists. She explained that
the County said it must have permission from the City of
Southlake to put in a culvert there. The City Secretary
' was instructed to write a letter so advising. Mrs. Muir
was advised that any expenses incurred were hers to bear,
to which she agreed. Mrs Muir also told the Council she
wants more police coverage (although she stated earlier
' she did not like the city sales tax.)
i Building Inspector change is to be put on the agenda for the
' next meeting. Councilman Brown asked that the City Secretary
notify Mr. Harty by letter.
Northeast Cities Advisory Council has an important meeting
coming up Thursday, July 9th. Councilman Polson, at Council-
man Hearn's suggestion, volunteered to serve as alternate to
assure representation by the City of Southlake.
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned.
