CONSENT AGENDA:
5A. Approve the minutes of the regular City Council meeting held on August 5, 2003.
Approved as presented.
5B. Approve an amendment to TIF Participation Agreement with Tarrant County. Director of
Finance Sharen Elam presented this item to Council during the work session. The original
participation agreement in 1998 stated that Tarrant County would contribute the annual
tax increment produced from property located in the reinvestment zone, up to a maximum
cumulative deposit of $4,664,000 to the Tax Increment Fund. The agreement also
provided for the County to have an interest of 20% usage and title ownership of the
planned Town Hall government building. This amendment will increase their usage and
title ownership of Town Hall to 25% with a total maximum cumulative deposit of
$6,864,000. This amendment brings an additional $2,200,000 in TIF funding, however, it
also reduces the City’s ownership of Town Hall from 80% to 75% (currently we are
operating approximately 75% of the facility). Tarrant County Commissioners are
scheduled to vote on this amendment on August 26. Council approval of this item is
subject to the County’s approval of Items 5B, 5C, and 5D.
5C. Authorize conveyance of interest in Town Hall site to Tarrant County. Director of
Finance Sharen Elam presented this item to Council during the work session. This agenda
item is related to items 5B and 5D. This is the formal action to approve conveyance of
25% fee simple interest of Town Hall to Tarrant County. Council approval of this item is
subject to the County’s approval of Items 5B, 5C, and 5D.
5D. Approve Interlocal Agreement with Tarrant County for Town Hall. Director of Finance
Sharen Elam presented this item to Council during the work session. This agreement
outlines the specific details as to usage, and operation of the Town Hall government
building. As previously mentioned, we will have joint ownership with Tarrant County
with a 75/25 split. Operational and capital cost will be allocated in the same proportion as
we share ownership (75/25). Except for emergency expenditures, expenditures for capital
expenses in excess of $25,000 shall not be made without approval of the governing
bodies of the City and the County. The Finance Department has invoiced and Tarrant
County has paid 25% of the operational costs related to Town Hall for 2001 and 2002
fiscal years (approximately $98,000 total for both years) in anticipation of this interlocal
agreement. Council approval of this item is subject to the County’s approval of Items
5B, 5C, and 5D.
5E. Resolution No. 03-065, Appoint members to the Crime Control and Prevention District
Board. There are four Crime Control and Prevention District Board positions that expire
September 1, 2003. Council appointed Martin Schelling, Pam McCain, Frank Pittman,
UNOFFICIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES, AUGUST 19, 2003, PAGE 2 OF 13
and Lou Ann Heath to fill these four positions with terms to expire September 2005. In
accordance with Section 4.21 of the City Charter, the caption for this item is listed as
follows:
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTHLAKE,
TEXAS, APPOINTING PERSONS TO SERVE AS THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
FOR THE SOUTHLAKE CRIME CONTROL AND PREVENTION DISTRICT; AND
PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
5F. Resolution No. 03-066, Appoint two alternate members to the Senior Advisory
Commission. In 1996, Ordinance No. 653 established the Senior Advisory Commission
and was amended in 1998 by Ordinance No. 653-A which added two alternate members
to the Commission. It was discovered after the July 29, 2003, appointments were made
by City Council that the City Secretary’s Office did not have record of Ordinance No.
653-A, and therefore, the alternate positions were not filled at that time. The City
Secretary’s Office has prepared Resolution No. 03-066 for Council’s appointment of two
alternates. Council appointed Cleta Pierce as Alternate #1 and Jean Boland as Alternate
#2 with terms to expire May 2004. In accordance with Section 4.21 of the City Charter,
the caption for this item is listed as follows:
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTHLAKE,
TEXAS, APPOINTING TWO ALTERNATE MEMBERS TO THE SENIOR
ADVISORY COMMISSION AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
5G. Approve an addendum to 2003 Facilities Utilization Agreement with Grapevine-
Southlake Soccer Association. Director of Community Services Malcolm Jackson
presented this item to Council during work session. With the construction of the new
facility at Bob Jones Park, a need exists for an interim concession agreement to provide
the Grapevine Southlake Soccer Association (GSSA) the opportunity to offer concession
sales during the 2003 fall season. A concessions agreement does not exist within the
current Facilities Utilization Agreement between the City of Southlake and GSSA. As
indicated, the proposed addendum remains valid only through the upcoming Fall season
to allow the Concessions Task Force time to review and make recommendations prior to
the 2004 seasons. As part of the proposed addendum, the City reserves the right to utilize
the concession stand when not in use by GSSA and modifications to the structure are
strictly prohibited without the express written consent of the Director of Community
Services. The City holds responsibility for utilities (water and electric) and structural and
mechanical maintenance. The proposed addendum is consistent with the concession
agreements currently in place between the City and the baseball and softball associations.
The President of the Grapevine Southlake Soccer Association reviewed and accepted the
proposed addendum. The Parks and Recreation Board considered this item and
recommended approval at their August 11, 2003, meeting.
st
8A. Ordinance No. 480-231b, (ZA03-033), 1 Reading, Zoning Change and Site Plan for
Medical Air Services. Senior Planner Dennis Killough presented this item to Council
during work session. This property is located at 1250 West Southlake Boulevard (FM
1709), east of the Southridge Lakes amenity center. The purpose of this request is to
amend the current S-P-1 zoning to allow a covered deck and balcony along the west side
of the building and 13' - 5" building setback for the deck structure only. All other uses
and regulations for the S-P-1 zoning will remain unchanged. The purpose for the deck
UNOFFICIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES, AUGUST 19, 2003, PAGE 3 OF 13
structure is to provide a covered break and lunch area for employees. The Planning and
Zoning Commission recommended approval subject to the review summary.
st
8B. Ordinance No. 480-425, (ZA03-052), 1 Reading, Zoning Change for Tracts 2B & 2C, C.
Dart Survey, Abstract No. 2003. Senior Planner Dennis Killough presented this item to
Council during work session. This property is located at the southwest corner of West
Dove Road and North Peytonville Avenue. This site is approximately two acres. The
current zoning is AG and the requested zoning is SF-1A. Each tract currently has an
existing single family residence on it. Although a plat has not been submitted yet, it is
staff's understanding based on discussions with the applicant that they intend to combine
an adjoining narrow strip of property on the south that is already zoned SF-1A with this
property, remove the existing residences, plat, and build two new residences. By doing
this, after required right-of-way is dedicated for both Dove and Peytonville, each lot
should have a net one acre of land or more. The Planning and Zoning Commission
recommended approval as presented.
st
8C. Ordinance No. 480-330b, (ZA03-057), 1 Reading, Zoning Change and Site Plan for
Carroll ISD No. 6 Addition. Senior Planner Dennis Killough presented this item to
Council during work session. The purpose of this request is to revise the fencing and
bufferyard requirement along the west property boundary of Dragon Stadium. With the
approval of the additional seating and parking revision to accommodate the Dallas Burn,
an 8' wall and bufferyard were required along the common boundary with Mr. Kaposta.
The school and Mr. Kaposta have come to an agreement to eliminate the wall and leave
the natural vegetation intact along his boundary. There are no other changes proposed.
All other conditions of the previous approval are to remain in affect. The Planning and
Zoning Commission recommended approval of the requested site plan change waiving
the screening and plant requirements in the west bufferyard adjacent to Mr. Kaposta, but
requiring that the CISD maintain the existing vegetation in perpetuity.
st
8D. Ordinance No. 854, 1 Reading, Amend Chapter 12, Section 77, of the Southlake City
Code to increase the number of members on the Park and Recreation Board from seven to
nine, adding places eight and nine. Director of Community Services Malcolm Jackson
presented this item to Council during work session. The recent appointments to the Park
and Recreation Board increased the total number of places from seven to nine. Chapter
12 of the Southlake City Code allows for no more than seven members. In order to
modify the existing Park Board structure to coincide with the recent appointments,
approval of a new Ordinance No. 854 is required. The proposed ordinance will increase
the number of Park and Recreation Board members from seven to nine, with four places
expiring in 2004, and five places expiring in 2005.
9A. Resolution No. 03-062, Authorize the Board of Directors to revise the Bylaws of Tax
Increment Reinvestment Zone Number One, City of Southlake, Texas, Article II, Section
3: Regular Meetings; and Article II, Section 6: Conduct of Business. Assistant to the City
Manager John Eaglen presented this item to Council during work session. The proposed
Bylaw amendments are the following: 1) Article II: Board of Directors; Section 3:
Regular Meetings - These are housekeeping amendments that provide for flexibility in
scheduling regular meetings (by minute order versus resolution) and provides for
standard and consistent notification procedures for regular and special or emergency
meetings (proposed Section 3 wording already exists in Article II, Section 4); and, 2)
Article II: Board of Directors; Section 6: Conduct of Business - The duties of the
UNOFFICIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES, AUGUST 19, 2003, PAGE 4 OF 13
Secretary and the City Secretary are identical, and for tracking purposes there are benefits
to having the City Secretary perform the Secretary function of the TIRZ Board of
Directors.
These amendments were brought forward last year in conjunction with a request from
Cooper and Stebbins to consider increasing the City Council's appointees to the Board of
Directors to include a representative from the Town Square developer. During
consideration of this item at their August 6, 2002, meeting, the Board of Directors elected
to not make a request to the City Council to revise the Bylaws at that time. At their
January 21, 2003, meeting, during consideration of electing officers for the coming year,
the Board of Directors requested that staff bring forward the proposal regarding the City
Secretary in order to streamline the secretarial function. In accordance with Section 4.21
of the City Charter, the caption for this item is listed as follows:
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTHLAKE,
TEXAS, TO AUTHORIZE THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS TO REVISE THE
BYLAWS OF THE TAX INCREMENT REINVESTMENT ZONE NUMBER ONE,
CITY OF SOUTHLAKE, TEXAS, PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
10A. Consider a conditional sign permit for Southlake Town Square, Block 23, under Section
6.A of Sign Ordinance No. 704-A. Deputy Director of Administrative Services Garland
Wilson presented this item to Council during work session. Frank Bliss, representing
Southlake Town Square, is requesting a conditional sign permit for Block 23 of
Southlake Town Square located at the northeast corner of East Southlake Boulevard and
Summit Avenue. The provisions of the requested permit would duplicate those of the
existing conditional permit for Southlake Town Square, Phase I.
10B. Consider a conditional sign permit for Gateway Plaza, Phase II, Lot 1R5, Block 1,
located at 2550 East Southlake Boulevard under Section 6.A of Sign Ordinance No. 704-
A. Deputy Director of Administrative Services Garland Wilson presented this item to
Council during work session. Terry Wilkinson of Wyndham Properties II Ltd., on behalf
of Gateway Plaza II, is requesting approval of a conditional sign permit for Lot 1R5,
Block 1, Gateway Plaza II. This permit would duplicate the provisions of the existing
Gateway Plaza II conditional permit.

Agenda Item 7A. Ordinance No. 480-420 (ZA03-020) 2 Reading, Zoning Change and Concept
Plan for Chapel Hill Office Park. Senior Planner Dennis Killough presented this item to the
Council. This property is located at 205 East Southlake Boulevard (FM 1709). The current
zoning is AG, the requested zoning is S-P-2, with O-1 office district uses and regulations. The
Planning and Zoning Commission recommended denial on June 5, 2003. The property owner to
the east is also in opposition to this request. This opposition accounts for approximately 26% of
the surrounding property area within 200’ of the site. Due to the recommendation for denial by
the Planning and Zoning Commission and opposition in excess of 20% of the surrounding
th
properties within 200’, the affirmative vote of at least 3/4 of the members of the City Council (6
of 7) is required to approve this request.
The City Council approved the first reading on June 17, 2003, subject to review summary and
granting the requested variances. The following changes have been made to the plan since the
first reading approval: eliminated one building along the west side of the property (total of seven
buildings now proposed); building coverage reduced by approximately 5,800 SF; total floor area
reduced from 55,600 SF to 54,800 SF (800 SF decrease); and two buildings along the south
property boundary changed to two story. Applicant Steve Isbell, Realty Capital Corporation, 32
Village Lane, Suite 200, Colleyville, Texas, addressed Council’s questions.
Council discussed concerns regarding the location of the open space and future maintenance of
the interior streets and driveways.
Applicant Richard Myers, 32 Village Lane, Suite 200, Colleyville, Texas, answered Council’s
questions relating to maintenance of the streets.
No one spoke during the public hearing.
Council discussed with the applicant the possibility of reworking the plan to re-distribute the
green space throughout the development. The applicant agreed to table this item until the next
meeting to allow for time to talk to various Councilmembers about their concerns.
Mayor Wambsganss said the Council needs to think about how they want to handle similar
developments in the future where there are buildings that do not front onto FM 1709 and the
buildings are sold on individual lots within the development.
Motion was made to table and to continue the public hearing to the September 2, 2003, Council
meeting.
Motion: Standerfer

Agenda Item 7B. Ordinance No. 480-421, (ZA03-023), 2 Reading, Zoning Change and
Development Plan for Estes Park. Senior Planner Dennis Killough presented this item to the
Council. This 31.3 acre property is located on the south side of East Dove Street, 900’ east of
Ridgecrest Drive. The land use designation is Low Density Residential. The current zoning on
the property is AG and the proposed zoning is RPUD. The Planning and Zoning Commission
recommended approval subject to Development Plan Review Summary No. 4, dated July 11,
2003, specifically stipulating the approval of the plan containing 46 lots; that the perimeter
fencing will be at least 6’ high and made of wrought iron, with posts placed in such a way that it
will preserve existing trees; a berm with appropriate ground cover will be installed in the lot
owned by Paul and Marsanne Howard adjacent to those identified in the plan as lots 13 & 14 of
Estes Park; subject to compliance with noise level reduction as specified in Ordinance 479; there
will be a 20’ buffer line installed along the north side of lot 14 as identified in the Estes Park
plan; and within that buffer line, no trees will be removed. City Council approved the first
reading of this request subject to the Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation and
acknowledged the uniqueness of this property and area. There has been no change to this
proposal since the first reading approval.
Applicant Paul Spain of Terra Land Development answered Council’s questions. Mr. Spain
agreed to work with Brazos Electric in researching possibilities to further screen that property
from this development. He also asked Council for permission to develop this project in two
phases; he needs time to pinpoint the exact location of the street stub to the east.
Mayor Wambsganss opened the public hearing.
Ron Cullum, 745 E. Dove Road, Southlake, Texas, spoke in support of this request.
Marsanne Howard, 535 E. Dove Road, Southlake, Texas, spoke in support of this request and
asked Council to make their approval subject to the recommendations of P&Z.
Lee Dodson, 1020 Carroll Meadows Court, Southlake, Texas, spoke in opposition. He said he
bought property in Southlake because of the one acre minimum.
Harry Tharp, 1015 Carroll Meadows Court, Southlake, Texas. Spoke in opposition to this
request. He submitted a letter and pictures depicting his concerns. He wants a net density of one
dwelling unit per acre.
Jay Koldus, 600 E. Dove Road, Southlake, Texas. Spoke in opposition to this request due to the
number of homes, the lot sizes, the traffic congestion, and the drainage problems.
Gwen Bennett, 650 E. Dove Road, Southlake, Texas. Spoke in opposition of this request because
it is setting a precedent and is concerned about the housing standards. She does not have
drainage problems today and is concerned that she will have future problems due to this
development.

said he has worked very diligently with the adjacent property owners regarding drainage, and
their goal is not to cause any additional drainage downstream.
Mayor Wambsganss recognized the uniqueness of this particular property but said density is a
major concern on the north side. He encouraged the residents who spoke in opposition to attend
the 2025 Committee meetings to discuss future planning of the north side.
Mr. Spain agreed to Council’s request to reduce the number of lots on Dove Road by one lot and
increase the number of lots on the west side by one lot in order to give a less dense appearance to
the development from Dove Road.
