Item 4FCITY OF
SOUTHLAKE
MEMORANDUM
October 21, 2008
TO: Shana Yelverton, City_ Manaa,pr
FROM: Chris Tribble, Interim Director of Community Services
SUBJECT: Recommendation to acquire Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) tract adjacent to DPS North Site on Dove Road for park
land
Action Requested: City Council review to acquire FAA property adjacent to DPS
North Site, located at Dove Road and North White Chapel
Boulevard (GSA: 7-U-TX-1096).
Background
Information: The City of Southlake has approached the FAA to acquire a
decommissioned piece of property located on E. Dove Road.
At one time, the property served as an outer marker site,
communicating with operating aircraft the distance to nearby
runways. Such sites are no longer necessary, given the
improved electronic equipment currently used. The staff
believes this property could be useful as part of a future park
near the DPS North Site and is a R.O.W. component of the
proposed Dove Road. 8-ft multi -se trail.
Financial
Considerations: There is no direct financial consideration resulting from this
acquisition; the purchase is no charge to the City.
Financial Impact: City will gain 0.569 acres, along the eastern side of DPS
North Site property and assume maintenance responsibility.
Funding is included in approved FY08-09 Parks operating
budget.

1. Description of Property
Narrative:
The FAA Outer Marker LWN is located in Southlake, 372 East Dove Road,
Tarrant County, Texas. The property encompasses approximately 0.569 acres of land.
The perimeter is bounded by a four foot high barbed wire livestock fence on the North,
South, and West. The East boundary has a four foot high white picket fence on the
Southern half and a seven foot high wooden fence on the Northern half. This property
was used for agricultural purposes prior to being acquired by the FAA in 1986.
The site is largely undeveloped. A crushed rock driveway links E. Dove Rd to the
primary entrance of the property. There are two separate concrete slabs running down
the middle of the tract, each approximately 200 sq ft. Additionally, there exist five (5)
concrete piers on the property previously utilized for FAA towers.
The property is primarily flat and topographically unremarkable. The majority of
land is covered by native grasses and vegetation. The average surface elevation is 600
feet above sea level. This property is not included in the 100-year floodplain.

2. Program of Utilization
Narrative:
This site will enable possible expansion of current plans which include several
multipurpose athletic fields, a restroom and concession building, a playground, and a
nature trail. The additional land will compliment the 22.6 acres of new park facilities and
may allow for additional trails and nature areas to be constructed.
Preparation of the site for inclusion in park plans is anticipated to include breakup
and removal of existing concrete slabs and piers. Additionally, the site will likely be
replanted with grass and natural landscape. These improvements are aimed at creating
a seamless natural buffer between the city park and the private residences that border
the property.
The City of Southlake expects to develop and maintain the site as part of its
overall park facility. Lacrosse is planned to be among the sports utilizing the athletic
fields. Flag football is another possible patron for recreational field use. These events
would likely be coordinated via local sports organizations.
Schedule of Development:
The proposed park facility bordering this site is scheduled to be developed in two
separate phases. Phase I is expected to enter design and planning phase in 2009 with
construction beginning in 2010. This initial phase should include construction of the
multipurpose athletic fields, installation of parking lots, and site improvement with
landscaping. Plans would also include development of a nature trail within the subject
property. Phase II is expected to proceed to design phase in 2013 with subsequent
construction starting in 2014. It is planned that this phase will expand nature trails and
hiking paths along the entire park and improve upon existing natural areas. For both
phases of development, construction is expected to take less than a year to complete
once started. Additionally, there are plans to construct an 8 foot multiuse trail along the
Dove Rd. ROW for this property in 2009.

3. Need
The City of Southlake is a medium sized suburban community of roughly 26,000 people.
The area has seen rapid growth in recent years as young professionals have moved to
the region to start and raise their families. As a result, the City has seen high demand
for family oriented activities including natural park space and sport recreation.
The City currently owns and manages over 624 acres of park land, including two
community and over ten (10) public neighborhood parks, offering convenient access to
many cultural and entertainment facilities and activities. Additionally, the City maintains
450 acres of natural park area in Southlake.
There is currently a high demand for recreation fields and sports venues within the City.
A variety of championship youth sport leagues call Southlake home including: baseball,
softball, swimming, tennis, soccer, lacrosse and football, as well as recreational classes
for all ages. These organizations have created a pressing need for Southlake to
develop and maintain additional recreational facilities.
The construction of an additional three (3) multipurpose fields at this site will generate
additional capacity for the City to host athletic programs. Annual volume is expected to
reach over 5,000 individuals a year.
4. Suitability
This site is well suited for inclusion in the surrounding park plans, given its undeveloped
state and position directly adjacent to current city projects. The inclusion of the tract is
anticipated to add size and value to the overall purpose and function of the future park
facility. The site has no known historic value that would contribute to public enjoyment.
There are no permanent structures or development on this property that will contribute
to the public enjoyment. Instead, the relative unimproved nature of the land will be
utilized to create open space and natural areas. This function will compliment the
surrounding park and contribute to the overall public purpose of the project.
The site is located on 372 East Dove Road between N. White Chapel Blvd. and N.
Carroll Ave. The location is highly accessible as it lays less than one mile north of S.H.
114, the primary transportation corridor for the region. The property is in close proximity
to several community schools as well as the future site of a new public safety facility.
The majority of the surrounding region is comprised of single family neighborhoods,
making this site ideal for park and recreation uses.
This site is currently served by a short crushed rock driveway coming North off of E.
Dove Road. Upon completion, the property will be joined with the remainder of the park
GSA control number: 7-U-TX-1096
through a series of trails and nature paths. This will serve to create a seamless
transition within the overall park project.
GSA control number: 7-U-TX-1096
5. Capability
The City of Southlake currently owns more than 400 acres of park properties and
manages an additional 200 acres of natural preserve. The City has considerable
experience developing and operating park facilities through its Community Services
Department. The Department directly oversees Park and Recreational facilities which
include 45 practice and game fields, 15 lighted tennis courts, a lighted inline hockey
facility, 6 miles of park trails, six concession and/or restroom facilities, five ponds with
aeration features and 11 pavilions.
The City's park programs are well funded through a dedicated .5 cent sales tax. The
Community Services Department budget for Fiscal Year 2009 is set to increase from
2008's $5,217,272 to $5,938,877. Southlake is a financially sound municipality and
enjoys a bond rating of `AA' from Standard and Poor's.
Park development, maintenance, and operations are all handled within the Community
Services Department of the City of Southlake. The Department currently employs 37
full time individuals devoted to the development and maintenance of park facilities,
including, one Construction Manager and twenty-two (22) maintenance workers.
Additionally, the City employs several full time recreational employees dedicated to
organizing and coordinating activities and events.

sufficiently operated and maintained, the revenue may be used only for other public
park and recreational purposes by the Grantee. Any revenue received by the
Grantee which is generated through the operation of the property shall be listed and

(j) The Grantee, by its acceptance of this deed, covenants and agrees for itself, and
its successors and assigns, that in the event the Grantor exercises its option to
revert all right, title, and interest in the property to the Grantor, or the Grantee

the title is actually reverted or returned to and accepted by the Grantor, including the
period of any notice of intent to revert. Such protection and maintenance shall, at a

the right of entry upon said premises at all reasonable times to conduct inspections
of the property for the purpose of evaluating the Grantee's compliance with the
terms and conditions of the conveyance.
(1) The failure of the National Park Service, or any other agency of the United
States, to exercise any right or remedy granted under this instrument shall not have
the effect of waiving or limiting the exercise of any other right or remedy or the use
of such right or remedy at any other time.
(m) The Grantee, its successors and assigns, shall hold harmless, defend, and
indemnify the United States, its employees, agents, and representatives from and
against any suit, claim, demand or action, liability, judgment, cost or other fee
arising out of any claim for personal injury or property damage (including death,
illness, or loss of or damage to property or economic loss) that arises from the
Grantee's or the Grantee's agent's use or occupancy of the property and/or the
Grantee's failure to comply with the terms of this deed.

mineral rights in the property.

Applicant at its sole expense. The National Park Service will, however, cooperate

and inspection of such deeds, abstracts, affidavits of title, judgments in
condemnation proceedings, or other documents relating to the title of the premises
and property involved as it may have available. The United States of America will

law. All instruments of conveyance and security documents shall be recorded at the
Applicant's expense within 30 days of their receipt in the manner prescribed by local
recording statutes. The Applicant shall provide the National Park Service with a
certified copy of the instrument of conveyance within 30 days of the date of
recordation which indicates the date, location, and book and page number of its
recording.
10. The Applicant agrees to comply with Section 106 of the National Historic

1.0 Introduction
The purpose of this due diligent audit is to confirm or deny recognized environmental conditions in
connection with the subject facility. The determination is based on the results of site
reconnaissance, interviews and a records search. This report represents the results found.
This Phase I Environmental Due Diligence Audit (EDDA) was conducted for the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) facility known as Dallas/Fort Worth Outer Marker Facility LWN. This EDDA
was completed pursuant to FAA Order 1050.19A under FAA Contract Number GS-OOF-0017L,
FAA Award Number DTFASW-06-P00374.
Outer marker sites are located between four and seven miles from the approaching end of an
airport runway. They contain radio equipment sending signals to aircraft that indicate the distance
to the runway threshold. Outer marker sites are no longer used due to the improved electronic
equipment presently used on aircraft. As a result, the FAA is decommissioning these sites and is
in the process of either selling the property, when the property is owned by the FAA, or returning
the property to the owner if the property is leased by the FAA, There is no longer any building on
the subject site. The site has no current use. the site is fenced and has a gate.

5.0 Site Inspection
The following site conditions were evaluated during the site inspection. Site photographs are
included in Appendix C.
Site Buildings/Site Grounds
The site consists of a fenced enclosure with an unimproved road leading to the former equipment
site located at the north end of the property. The equipment site consists of an area covered with
crushed stone that measures approximately thirty-five feet by thirty-five feet. South of the
equipment site is what appears to be a parking area measuring roughly the same size. The
parking area was once covered with crushed stone as well; however weeds have taken over much
of the area. There are four concrete piers and a concrete stoop which are remnants of the outer
marker equipment shelter. Two concrete pads have been constructed on top of low areas in the
road to facilitate access when the conditions are wet. A utility pole stands on the south side of the
site just inside the gate.
Underground Storage Tanks
No evidence of underground storage tanks was observed during the site inspection.

were contacted regarding any known or recorded events that might indicate the presence of
recognized environmental conditions at the subject facility.
On February 16, 2007 and February 23, 2007, attempts were made to contact the Safety Officer at
TXDoT in Dallas, Texas and phone messages were left. No responses have been received as of
the date of this report.
On February 16, 2007, Ms. Joyce Sirota of the TCEQ was contacted requesting information
pertaining to any USTs on the subject site. Ms. Sirota recommended JMWA visit the TCEQ web
page and search the PST and LPST databases. No PSTs or LPSTs related to the subject site
were found after reviewing the databases.
J On February 16, 2007, February 22, 2007, and October 9, 2007, Ms. Jan Malone of the TCEQ was
contacted regarding any spills on the subject site. Ms. Malone informed JMWA a spills search can
be conducted by either the TCEQ or a firm specializing in environmental data services. She also
stated the TCEQ does not have a searchable spills database accessible on their website. (The
Environmental FirstSearch7m Report prepared by Banks Information Solutions, Inc. dated
November 17, 2006 indicated that no spill incidents are known to have occurred at the subject
q site).
On February 7, 2007, Mr. Mike Keller, Federal Aviation Administration point of contact for the site,
was asked various questions regarding the property. The questions asked are presented below.
Mr. Keller's answers follow each question.
t.f Question 1 - Are you aware of any environmental cleanup liens against the property that are filed
or recorded under federal, tribal, state or local law?
Answer 1 — No,
Question 2 - Are you aware of any activity and use limitations (AULs), such as engineering
( controls, land use restrictions, or institutional controls that are in place at the site andlor have been
C filed or recorded in a registry under federal, tribal, state or local law?
Answer 2 — No.
Question 3 - As the user of this environmental site assessment (ESA) do you have any specialized
knowledge or experience related to the property or nearby properties? For example, are you
involved in the same line of business as the current or former occupants of the property or an
adjoining property so that you would have specialized knowledge of the chemicals and processes
used by this type of business?
Cl
Phase 1 EDDA Dallas/Fort Worth Outer Marker Facility L WN
FAA Contract Number GS-OOF-0017L
FAA Award Number DTFASW-06-P00374
Answer 3 — The site is a former outer marker facility used as an aircraft navigational aid. The
facility emitted an electronic signal transmitting information to aircraft of their positioning relative to
the approach end of the airport runway. The only chemical used at the site was acid in batteries.
The batteries are approximately the size and shape of an automotive battery. Depending on the
site, there were probably between six and twelve batteries used at any given time.
Question 4 - Does the purchase price being paid for this property reasonably reflect the fair market
value of the property? If you conclude that there is a difference, have you considered whether the
lower purchase price is because contamination is known or believed to present at the property?
Answer 4 — I do not know how much money is being asked for the property. I do not know of or
believe there is any contamination at the property.
Question 5 - Are you aware of commonly known or reasonable ascertainable information about the
property that would help the environmental professional to identify conditions indicative of releases
or threatened releases?
For example, as user
a) Do you know the past uses of the property?
b) Do you know of specific chemicals that are present or once were present at the property?
c) Do you know of spills or other chemical releases that have taken place at the property?
d) Do you know if any environmental cleanup that have taken place at the property?
rAnswer
5 — No.
Answer 5a — Yes, we previously discussed the past use of the property.
Answer 5b — I am not sure but batteries were probably used at the property. If so, they probably
contained acid.
Answer 5c — No.
Answer 5d — There have been no environmental cleanups at the property.
Question 6 - As the user of this ESA, based on your knowledge and experience related to the
property are there any obvious indicators that point to the presence or likely presence of
contamination at the property?
Answer 6 — No.
