Consent Agenda
5A. Approval of the minutes of the City Council regular meeting held on April 1, 2003.
Approved as presented.
5B. Resolution No. 03 -023, Adoption of Interim Status Pay Policy From time to time,
vacancies occur in certain critical positions which necessitate that we elevate an employee,
to perform the duties of a higher position on an interim basis for operational continuity.
Examples include interim department directors and deputy directors, an interim police
sergeant to fill in for an employee recalled to active military duty, etc. However, we have
not provided additional compensation to those employees asked to take on significantly
greater duties and responsibilities. In addition, there are state law requirements that
provide for additional compensation to police and fire personnel when performing the
duties of a higher classification. This policy is intended to provide a standard approach for
assignment and additional compensation to those employees placed in interim positions.
The budget impact of this policy should be minor since most interim fills will probably be
due to vacancies or absences without pay.
5C. Approval of a variance to the Subdivision Ordinance No. 483, Section 8.01A, as amended,
requiring all lots to front on a "street" as it pertains to Case ZA03 -016, Proposed Lot 1, I.
G. Belcher No. 30 Addition (4700 N. White Chapel) Case ZA03 -016, is a proposed single
lot plat showing located at the far north end of N. White Chapel (4700 N. White Chapel),
abutting Grapevine Lake Corp of Engineers Property. It is a 3.772 acres existing tract,
zoned SF -lA, having access to a public road through a private access easement only.
Because the subdivision ordinance requires that all lots have frontage on a public or private
street built to City street standards, the applicant must receive approval of a variance prior
to filing their plat and commencing construction on their residence. The applicant is aware
of the public safety requirements for residential fire protection and emergency access and
has indicated they will comply with those requirements.
5D. Revision of the Southlake Public Library's Borrower Privileges and Responsibilities Policy
to establish requirements to obtain a Carroll Independent School District employee (free)
library card. Representatives from the Library Board, Friends of the Southlake Library
(FOSL), and city staff met with the CISD Librarians on February 10, 2003, in order to
discuss how we could all work together to enhance education in the community. In the
UNOFFICIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES, APRIL 15, 2003, PAGE 2 OF 12
discussion the school librarians identified the lack of access to library cards to the
Southlake Public Library as a barrier to increased coordination between the schools and the
library. The Library Board had considered establishing a category of card holders for
CISD employees, similar to that for City employees, however, the reason for not
establishing this category in the past was the collection size at the time, and how CISD
employees would impact the materials available for residents. With increased focus on the
development of the baseline library collection in the past six months, the collection size is
currently 34,000 materials on the shelves. In order for the evaluation of potential impact of
revising the policy, staff has provided scenarios (based on stated assumptions) in order to
consider the policy and financial impact of this policy revision. The Library Board
approved a recommendation of the revision of this policy to the City Council at their
March 26, 2003 meeting. In consideration of this recommendation, Board members
expressed that this revision would be a good first step towards greater outreach to the CISD
and the increased partnership between the library and the schools.
5E. Authorize the Mayor to execute a professional services agreement with Cheatham and
Associates for design of paving and drainage improvements on South Kimball Avenue
from FM 1709 to Heritage Park, East Continental Boulevard and S -7 sanitary sewer lines
The 2002/2003 Capital Improvements Program (CIP) provided funds for the design and
construction of the ultimate section (four -lane divided arterial) of S. Kimball Avenue from
FM 1709 to Heritage Park. The project also includes the completion of E. Continental
Boulevard from Crooked Lane to S. Kimball Avenue and the S -7 sewer line along S.
Kimball Avenue from E. Continental Boulevard to 1800' north of Crooked Lane.
Previously, the north half of S. Kimball Avenue from E. Continental Boulevard to Heritage
Park, the north half of E. Continental Boulevard from Crooked Lane to S. Kimball Avenue,
and the west half of S. Kimball Avenue from FM 1709 to Crooked Lane have been
constructed. The City staff has negotiated a professional services agreement with Cheatham
and Associates to perform the design and preparation of construction plans and
specifications for the construction of the ultimate section of S. Kimball Avenue from FM
1709 to Heritage Park, the ultimate section of E. Continental Boulevard from Crooked
Lane to S. Kimball Avenue and the S -7 sanitary sewer line from E. Continental Boulevard
to 1800' north of Crooked Lane. The total negotiated professional services fee is $200,900
and is funded in the FY 02/03 CIP.
8A. Ordinance No. 480 -TT, 1 st Reading, An amendment to the Comprehensive Zoning
Ordinance No. 480, as amended, as it pertains to the Planned Unit Development District
PUD . Tabled on consent. Council agreed to have a work session to discuss this item
before it comes back to Council for consideration.
8B. ZA02 -081, Plat Revision, Lots 23 & 24, Block 2, Timarron Addition, Huntly Manor Phase
1B being a revision of Lot 12R1, Block 2, Timarron Addition, Huntly Manor Phase 113,
being approximately 2.33 acres. Located at 1201 Kirkaldy Court, this property was
originally platted in this two lot configuration. The previous owner had amended the plat
putting this into a single lot for a larger home. The plans for that home did not go through
and the new homebuilder would like to return this property to its original lot configuration.
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval subject to the staff review.
8C. ZA03 -004, Plat Revision, Lots 1R, 2R, 3R, 4R, & 5R, Block 1, Gateway Plaza, Phase 11
being a revision of Lot 1, Block 1, Gateway Plaza, Phase II, and Tract 1B 1, WE Mayfield
Addition; being approximately 5.13 This is the plat associated with the Gateway Plaza,
UNOFFICIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES, APRIL 15, 2003, PAGE 3 OF 12
Phase Two, Site Plan approved at the last meeting. This plat places each building on its
own lot and includes a previously unplatted one acre tract to the west. The Planning and
Zoning Commission recommended approval subject to the staff review.
10A. Approval of a request from the Liberty Garden Committee for the temporary placement of
artwork in Rustin Park at Town Square to coincide with Art In The Square and
for approval of up to $800 from Public Art Fund for temporary foundations and recognition
suns. An opportunity has arisen for the Liberty Garden Committee, the group promoting
the construction of the entry garden spot in Bicentennial Park, to purchase the statues for
that garden and have them placed on a temporary basis in the public area of the Town Hall
parks to coincide with Art in the Square (April 25 — 27). This would provide a good
promotional opportunity for both the Liberty Garden Committee and the Public Art
Advisory Committee. Signs or plaques are planned for the foundation bases recognizing
both committees. The request specifically involves Council approval of (1) temporary
public art placement on public property and (2) limited funding in an amount not to exceed
$800 to assist with the construction of the foundations for the statues. The foundations will
be pre -cast at another location and not permanently installed on the sidewalk. The statues
are requested to remain on the premises and promote the PAAC and Liberty Garden effort
no later than September 1, 2003, at which time or before they will be permanently located
at the Liberty Garden site.
Motion was made to approve consent agenda items 5A; 513; 5C; 513; 5E; 8A to table; 8B subject

REGULAR AGENDA
Agenda Item 6. Public Forum No one spoke.
The staff presentations, Council discussions, public hearings, and motions for Agenda Items 7A
and 7B were addressed jointly.
Agenda Item No. 7A. Ordinance No. 480 -294a, 2nd Reading (ZA02 -124) Rezoning and Concept
Plan for Harris Methodist Southlake Senior Planner Dennis Killough presented this item to the
Council. This property is located on the south side of East Southlake Boulevard, approximately
1,500' east of Carroll Avenue. The proposed S -P -2 Generalized Site Plan District zoning
includes all 0-1 Office District Uses and ambulatory surgery, imaging center, short stay beds and
associated services, medical - related retail (such as pharmacy and durable medical goods) and
allows up to 43 covered parking spaces as shown on the concept plan (east side of building). The
zoning will follow the 0-1 Office District Regulations except for impervious coverage which is
limited to a maximum of 66 %. The maximum 0-1 impervious coverage is 65 %. The northern
portion of the building is two stories and the southern portion is one story. Phase one consists of
approximately 31,000 s.f. of hospital (6 beds) and 50,000 SF of medical offices. Phase Two will
add approximately 45,000 s.f. of additional medical offices. The P &Z recommended approval
on February 20, 2003 subject to review, specifically denying request for driveway variance, and
UNOFFICIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES, APRIL 15, 2003, PAGE 4 OF 12
approving uses and regulations as proposed. Since the P &Z action on this item, the applicant has
come to agreement with the adjoining property owner on the east for an off -site common
driveway and is no longer requesting a driveway spacing and alignment variance. However, a
variance is now needed for the stacking depth on the proposed off -site driveway. A minimum
stacking depth of 150' is required and 120' is being provided. The City Council approved the
first reading subject to review, allowing stacking variance on the eastern off -site driveway as
requested. Applicant John Messler was present to answer Council's questions.
No one spoke during the public hearing.

Agenda Item No. 7D. ZA03 -010, Preliminary Plat for Curb Addition. Senior Planner Dennis
Killough presented this item to the Council. This is the preliminary plat associated with the
previous zoning change item. The purpose of this request is to receive approval of a preliminary
plat for the entire 6.4 acres, so that a final plat may be submitted and filed in the County to allow
the conveyance of the proposed SF -20A lot to the owner's daughter and son -in -law for
residential home construction. The property is located at 1640 and 1660 W. Continental Blvd. A
variance is requested to the "perpendicular lot line" requirement of the subdivision ordinance.
Side lot lines are required to be perpendicular to the R.O.W. The owner would like for their
southern side lot line to be parallel with the exiting northern side lot line. The intent of this
requirement is to ensure orderly lot patterns within subdivisions. This proposal would not appear
to interfere with the intent of the requirement. The Planning and Zoning Commission
recommended approval subject to review, specifically approving variance as requested for the
perpendicular lot line requirement.
Motion was made to approve ZA03 -010 subject to Plat Review Summary No. 2, dated March 14,
2003, and granting the requested variances.

Agenda Item No. 7E. ZA03 -011, Site Plan on property described as Southlake Corners, Lot 2A,
Block 1, Farrar Addition, and being approximately 16.5 acres. Senior Planner Dennis Killough
presented this item to the Council. This is a site plan proposal for re- development of the Wal-
Mart site. The plan proposes a 111,000 sf, three anchor main building, reusing a portion of the
existing building, a 25,000 sf retail building at the southeast corner of the property, and a 19,000
sf retail building at the northeast corner of the property. The applicant is also requesting up to a
10% variance on the required parking. This would provide for a restaurant tenant, having up to
7,700 square feet, in one of the proposed retail spaces without having to provide additional
parking spaces. At the April 1, 2003, Council meeting, the applicant was asked to investigate the
possibility of constructing a cross access over the drainage channel that separates the site from
Village Center shopping center. Staff has contacted the Village Center owners to determine their
willingness to participate in the project, but to date have not been able to schedule a meeting.
The engineers for the applicant have re- calculated the cost for constructing the access and have
estimated it to be $166,000 for a 24 foot wide crossing over a box culvert. The Arcon Group
indicated that they are willing to pay up to $50,000 (or ±1/3 the cost), to provide the necessary
access easements on their property, and to include the construction within their project. They
would want the City and the Village Center owners to participate equally in the remaining cost.
We will update the Council on any further developments. The applicant's engineer also
estimated the cost for enclosing the entire channel. To enclose the entire 830 foot length of the
channel from SH 114 to FM 1709, utilizing five 8' x 5' concrete box culverts, is estimated to be
UNOFFICIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES, APRIL 15, 2003, PAGE 7 OF 12
approximately $1,724,000. Applicant John Maggiore of the Arcon Group answered Council's
questions.
No one spoke during the public hearing.
Motion was made to approve ZA03 -011 subject to Site Plan Review Summary No. 2, dated
March 14, 2003, granting the requested variances and subject to the applicant's commitment to
pay up to one -third (maximum of $60,000) of the costs in constructing the culvert and crossing
between this site and Village Center.

Agenda Item No. 7F. Resolution No. 03 -025, (ZA03 -014) Specific Use Permit to allow the sale
of alcoholic beverages at Boppa's New York Style Pizza & Deli. Senior Planner Dennis
Killough presented this item to the Council. The property is located at 1125 Davis Boulevard,
Suite 400, in the Southlake Woods Plaza at the northeast corner of Davis and W. Continental.
This request is for permission to sell beer and wine in the restaurant. The site is compliant with
distance requirements from churches and public schools. There is a church to the northwest
across Davis Boulevard that is well in excess of the minimum 300' door to door as measured by
the State requirements. Primrose School is directly across Davis and is a day care. The City's
SUP requirements do not specifically regulate distances from day cares. TABC considers day
cares the same as public schools only if the permit or license holder does not hold a food and
beverage certificate. The food and beverage certificate requires that food preparation facilities
capable of preparing multiple entrees be present and that alcohol sales do not exceed 50% of the
gross sales receipts. This is a restaurant and is expected to have less than fifty percent of its sales
in alcohol. The applicant has indicated that they will be requesting a food and beverage
certificate. The Primrose School property owner was notified and no response has been received.
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval. Applicant Robert Marks was
present to answer Council's questions.
No one spoke during the public hearing.

approximately $2.3 million in debt service payments and further provide present value savings of
approximately $700,000. The certificates are issued and approved by adoption of an ordinance.
Approval of Ordinance No. 847 will set in motion the legal requirements to obtain the proceeds

Attorney General's Office. The City would redeem the outstanding bonds in mid May.
