REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF JULY 1, 1997 PAGE 4 OF 13
Agenda Item g7-A. Ordinance No. 480-Y. 2nd readin~ Establishing regulations for nersonal
care facilities.
Ordinance No. 480-Y, 2nd reading, Establishing regulations for personal care facilities was
presented by Karen Gandy, Zoning Administrator.
PUBLIC HEARING:
Rick Bmckington, 1362 Cross Timber, Southlake. Mr. Bmckington stated he is opposed to multi-
family.
Dick Johnston, 139 Jellico Circle, Southlake. Mr. Johnston stated he is president of the Southlake
Senior Citizen Commission, who stated they are opposed to Ordinance No. 480-Y as written. He
stated a senior group met to discuss this ordinance at the request of Council and stated the uses
should be expanded to personal care and the ordinance should not separate couples when only one
needs assisted care. He stated with regard to zoning, that any zoning district would be acceptable
but not industrial. He stated the seniors feel they could go anywhere and would be good, quite
citizens.
Mr. Johnston stated the seniors support 20% open space and they recommend not limiting the use
of amenities to residents, but open them to the public.
A copy of the recommendation by the Senior Advisory Commission dated June 26,
1997, is hereby attached to the minutes of this meeting.
Councilmember David Harris suggested Council send the ordinance back to the
Planning and Zoning Commission in parts and not put the entire ordinance on hold
for these changes.
Zena Rucker, 650 South Carroll Avenue, Southlake. Ms. Rucker stated she would like to see the
moratorium extended. Mr. Johnston has had time to study the proposed ordinance, but she has
not had the time and would like to spend more time on the ordinance before it is approved. She
suggested there are federal grants and land gifts that could be utilized in this project.
Michael Boutte, 716 Ashleigh Lane, Southlake. Mr. Boutte stated logic dictated that we should
take a good look at what we want in this community. No one wants the dreaded apartments in
Southlake. He stated he feels the ordinance that was presented first was better.
Richard Ponder, 1200 Sabine Court, Southlake. Mr. Ponder had to leave the meeting but asked
the following statement be read into the record, "Any references to "unassisted" or "individual
assisted" living is simply a fancy and tricky way to say apartments. For a community that
opposes town homes, it would seem contradictory to pass this Ordinance No. 480-Y. Indeed
Timarron offers such a program today!"
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF JULY 1, 1997 PAGE 5 OF 13
Brian and Melody Bazar, 1127 Longford Circle, Southlake. Ms. Bazar read the following letter
into the record, "It is with great concern that I have learned of your intention to change the
Southlake City Ordinance concerning Assisted Living Facilities/Apartments. We moved to
Southlake over a year ago and were drawn to the community because there was an ordinance
prohibiting apartments within the City. 10 units per acre is bad enough, and the idea of unlimited
units per acre is unconscionable. We are against having these units in the city. If these Assisted
Living Facility Units must be allowed, then they should be restricted to 10 units per acre
John Larson, 355 Ravenaux Drive, Sonthlake. Mr. Larson stated he is representing the Ravenaux
Homeowners Association. The ordinance is a project of many months. The only best solutions
are win-win solutions. He stated what bothers him about a compromise ordinance is no one is
really happy. Sooner or later parties on either side of the fence get what they wanted.
Dona Schroetke, 211 Eastwood Drive, Southlake. Ms. Schroetke asked to have the "Fair Housing
Act" explained to her. She suggested putting this kind of facility in a Planned Unit Development.
There would be more amenities in the PUD. Residential adjacency is a problem.
Rex Potter, 303 Waterford Court, Southlake. Mr. Potter stated it disturbs him that we have
seniors against others or neighbors vs. neighbors. Where do we want them? What type do we
want? He suggested a separate zoning classification.
Judy Collins, 1470 Bent Trail Circle, Southlake. Ms. Collins stated she is opposed and
commented what if Council approves the ordinance and in five years the facility doesn't make a
go if it, what will happen to the building? The issues from the Timarron area several months ago
are still there. She asked the City Council to define the issues.
Councilmember David Harris stated this ordinance is something that has gone
through the process. This is not yet a finished product. He added, two issues are
maximum density and age limits.
Bill Cosgrove, 1750 Shumaker, Southlake. Mr. Cosgrove stated when you are retired you do not
have checks coming in. He stated he has lived in Southlake for twenty-one years and feels he
deserves some consideration. He stated he would like to see the City of Southlake do something
to help the senior citizens.
Public Hearing Closed.
Mayor Stacy stated this is a complex issue and very emotional. He stated he feels
this is as big a need as a day care center. He knows a lot of communities that are
working on building assisted living centers for their community. The Mayor stated
we must be realistic. We are not in a hurry, but we need to move forward. It wa s
noted the moratorium expires on July 15.

Circle, Southlake, opposed noting, "O-1" bufferyard, "I would like to see the additional 10' or
15' as discussed in the last meeting. O-1 screening, I would like to see a masonry fence rather
than wood. Masonry would be in better shape over time."
Ms. Gandy stated due to the approximately 25 % opposition of property owners within the 200'

this request.

Councilmember Harris stated at this t'nne after talking with Mr. Morrison and Mr.
Struempler, he believes since there will be two readings of this ordinance, that
they will have an opportunity to come back and express any opposition that they
may still have. At this time they are prepared to withdraw their opposition to let
Council proceed with ftrst reading, to give them some opportunity between first
and second reading to visit with the applicant to hammer out and commit in
writing the agreements the applicant is making to them as individuals and at the
second reading they will advise the Council if the terms have been put into effect
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF JULY 1, 1997 PAGE 10 OF 13
so Council can proceed with passing at second reading.
With the understanding in mind, and acknowledging the commitment that the applicant has made
to erect a masonry structure of a height of eight feet unless a lower height is requested by the
residents, and baring in mind the applicant's commitment to increase the bufferyard to 20'

Curtis Hawk, City Manager, stated the commercial/construction waste ordinance was on the
council prioritization schedule dated November 1, 1996. He asked for a committee of
Councilmembers to work with staff on this ordinance. It is not an ordinance that needed to be
taken to the Planning and Zoning Commission for recommendation. Mr. Hawk stated staff has
been concerned by the curbside placement of garbage by commercial entities. Staff had
numerous complaints about garbage at construction sites. This ordinance addresses both of these
issues. Councilmembers Harris, Martin and Muller agreed to work on this ordinance.

A proposal has been submitted by Glass and Associates for the development of a strategic plan.

Curtis Hawk stated this is a procedure which was initiated by the Parks and Recreation Board last

AGENDA ITEM #7 -A
MEMORANDUM
June 26, 1997
TO: Mayor Stacy and City Council Members
Curtis Hawk, City Manager
FROM: Senior Advisory Commission
SUBJECT: Recommendations Regarding Personal Care Facilities Ordinance No. 480 -Y
At the City Council meeting on June 17, 1997, your Senior Advisory Commission was
requested to give input and recommendations to guide your decision on accepting or rejecting
proposed Ordinance 480 -Y which provides that Personal Care Facilities may be constructed
within the City of Southlake under very restrictive circumstances.
Members of our Commission, met on two occasions including a special meeting on June 26,
1997 with a quorum present, and offer the following regarding Ordinance 480 -Y:
1. Assisted Care /Independent Living: The Senior Advisory Commission recommends the
ordinance include both Assisted Care and Independent Living. One failure of Ordinance
480 -Y is that it is too restrictive. It should have included provisions for independent living
housing units in the facility as well as personal care "assisted living" units. Many of the
newer facilities are referred to as "Assisted Living" centers, but include a broader
interpretation of "Assisted" than used on "Personal Care." Most facilities being
constructed today include both independent living units and assisted care units. Very few
facilities are limited only to assisted care living. It is important for the city to allow for
independent living to give senior citizens who cannot maintain their home and property a
place to live.
Many couples come to the point in their lives where they need assistance for only one
member. Facilities restricted to "Assisted Care" only may not allow the healthy spouse to
live with the spouse in need of assistance. The combination of an Assisted
Care /Independent Living facility is necessary to allow the healthy spouse to live in the
facility in order to remain a family. Many couples which to move from a single family
residence, while both are still physically and mentally able, know that the day that the need
for assistance is in the near future, if not imminent.
A central dining room in a facility offers quality meal preparation and menus that an
elderly independent living couple or single person might not otherwise provide themselves
due to required effort of preparation. Housekeeping and cleanliness are also some of the
housing unit services that an elderly couple or single person might otherwise not give
sufficient attention to due to the required effort necessary.
Senior Advisory Commission
Recommendations to City Council
Page 2
2. Zoning: The zoning for an Assisted Care /Independent Living Facility should fit easily into
the category for hospitals, churches, schools, country clubs, community centers, etc.
3. Density & Lot Area Requirement: The Senior Advisory Commission believes very
strongly that the Development and Regulation requirement of five (5) acres with a
minimum of twelve (12) units per acre is too restrictive in Ordinance 480 -Y. We
recommend not defining minimum acreage and units per acre in the ordinance. This will
allow the city officials to determine the appropriateness of a facility on a case -by -case
basis. The five acre minimum requirement is not necessary. A nice facility in the right
location may be appropriate on a lot of three (3) or four (4) acres. If there is a need to
have a minimum acre requirement, the City Council should consider allowing the facility
to build more than 12 units per acre particularly with multi -story facilities.
The cost per living unit for residents is materially affected. A 120 living unit facility will
have considerably lower rental costs per living unit than a 60 unit facility on the same lot.
Developers will pass on the costs to the residents, resulting in fixed income seniors being
unable to live in facilities with less units per acre.
4. Floor Area Requirements: As defined in Ordinance 480 -Y, the Senior Advisory
Commission agrees with the floor area requirements. The size of the housing units is
appropriate for both independent living and assisted care living.
5. Open Space: The open space requirement identified in Ordinance 480 -Y can be modified
based on the location of the facility. City officials should review this on a case -by -case
basis for open space requirements to be determined by the adjacent property. If the facility
is located next to a park, open flood -plain property, on a large tract like the Solana
Complex, the requirements for the open space on the facility's lot should be less stringent.
We do support a 20 % open space requirement if the facility is not located next to a large
"open space" area.
6. Height Regulations: The Senior Advisory Commission recommends changing the height
limitations of Ordinance 480 -Y to a three (3) story facility if located beyond 100 feet from
property zoned as residential. An Assisted Care /Independent Living Facility is also a
residential living facility. Many current residences in the City of Southlake are equal to
three (3) stories in height with the tall steep pitch roofing. Ordinance 480 -Y's buffer yard
and open space requirements are sufficient for the separation from residences to allow for
increasing the height requirements.
7. Location: Some members of the Senior Advisory Commission have visited other area
Assisted Care /Independent Living Facilities and some have worked at such facilities.
These facilities are typically located off major thoroughfares including the following: the
Retirement Inn and Oak Park facilities in Fort Worth, the new Sherwood Gardens in
Senior Advisory Commission
Recommendations to City Council
Page 3
Bedford and the new facility under consideration in Grapevine on highway 121. Allowing
the facility to locate in the city limits of Southlake is more important to the Senior
Advisory Commission than the actual location of the facility in relationship to residential
and commercial properties and major thoroughfares. We would not recommend locating in
an industrial zoned area.
8. Use of Amenities: The Senior Advisory Commission recommends not limiting the use of
amenities in the facility to resident's only. Ordinance 480 -Y (in Section 1) defines the
Personal Care Facility's "incidental uses and /or services, may include protective
supervision, personal care, social and recreational services, transportation services, private
or common kitchen/dining facilities, `so long as such services are provided to residents
only.'" We recommend omitting the last phrase `so long as such services are provided to
residents only' to allow for seniors in the facility to have visitors and guests.
As written, this conflicts with Section 3 "Required and Permitted Amenities." We feel
residents should be allowed to have guests in the dining room or their housing units and if
space allows, guests or other area senior citizens should be allowed to participate in
recreation programs (i.e.: swimming, games, health, exercise, etc.) offered by the facility,
perhaps for a fee, if the facility owners are agreeable. Communication and interaction with
other area seniors not living in the facility is a healthy rewarding activity.
We trust our input, rationale, and recommendations will be helpful to the City Council. The
Senior Advisory Commission is unanimous in its opinion that Southlake needs
Independent /Assisted Living Facilities for senior citizens. Seniors need an opportunity to stay
close to families and friends, doctors and dentists, remain somewhat independent, and not be a
burden on living arrangements and schedules of children and grandchildren when the aging of
their mind and body demands supervision of others. Independent /Assisted living facilities will
provide this opportunity and provide an earned quality of life for Southlake Senior Citizens.
Thank you for requesting our input and considering our recommendations.
Respectfully Submitted,
The Senior Advisory Commission

SOUTHLAKE YOUTH ACTION COMMISSION (SYAC)
1996 -1997 Annual Report to the City Council
The Southlake Youth Action Commission was created in 1994 to generate broad -based public
awareness and support for youth. This group was formed to act as the formal "voice of
youth" in Southlake to bring issues to the City Council. SYAC also serves as a vehicle to
familiarize the youth of Southlake with the governance process in Local Government. This
year, there were 27 SYAC members ranging from 7th to 12th grades. This annual report
outlines Southlake Youth Action Commission's accomplishments during this past year.
Accomplishments:
• Ropes Course - The Southlake Youth Action Commission started the year by participating
in a ropes course in September. The purpose of the ropes course was to provide mentally
and physically challenging experiences to develop trust, personal growth, creativity,
communication, and self - esteem building. This was a great way to start the year by
encouraging team work and leadership skills.
• Habitat for Humanity Project - SYAC participated in a Habitat for Humanity project in the
fall. This project allowed the SYAC members to volunteer in the community by building a
home. SYAC also prepared a basket of food for the family living in the home.
• Southlake's 40th Birthdav Celebration - The Southlake Youth Action Commission assisted
with the city's 40th birthday celebration. In September, SYAC volunteered at the 40th
Birthday Celebration for the City of Southlake. In May, SYAC members volunteered at
the Fair & Kite Festival by assisting with the games and activities during the celebration.
• Christmas for Kids Project - SYAC members assisted with the city's Christmas for Kids
Project by helping at the outdoor Christmas Carnival. The Christmas for Kids Project
provides food and clothing for needy families in the community. Volunteering with this
project gave SYAC the opportunity to help the community during the holiday season.
• Volunteer in Community Projects - Over the year, the Southlake Youth Action
Commission volunteered in various community projects. SYAC participated in the Texas
Trash -Off, the Senior Citizen's Dance, the Easter in the Park celebration and various
recreational programs.
• Youth in Government Day - SYAC held its first Youth In Government Day on Wednesday,
April 30, 1997, which centered around a discussion of the issues regarding drug and
alcohol abuse by Southlake youth. The group first focused on defining the problems with
students using drugs and alcohol and discussed possible solutions for the School District
SYAC Annual Report
Page 2
and the City to consider when addressing these issues. SYAC representatives presented
their recommendations to the City Council and School Board on June 10 at the joint City
Council /CISD meeting.
• Austin Trip - SYAC took their annual trip to Austin on April 23, 1997. The students
observed the legislature in action by attending both the House of Representatives and the
Senate in session. Representative Nancy Moffat recognized the students during the session
and briefly visited with the group. The students also met Senator Jane Nelson and received
a packet of information from the Senator. The final aspect of the trip included a visit to
the Texas Supreme Court where the students observed two cases being appealed before the
Supreme Court Justices.
• By -laws - SYAC developed and adopted a set of by -laws to establish rules for the
Commission to follow. The by -laws address a number of items including SYAC
membership, attendance, officer elections, and meeting times and location.
• Southlake Youth of the Year Award - In conjunction with the Southlake Chamber of
Commerce, SYAC awarded its second annual "Youth of the Year Award." The award
recognizes a Southlake youth with exceptional leadership skills, community involvement,
and excellent grades. The award was presented at the Chamber's annual awards banquet in
January.
Goals for 1997 - 1998:
The Southlake Youth Action Commission has developed great plans for the 1997 -1998 school
year. The three areas of focus include Community Service Projects, Youth in
Government /Leadership Programs, and Voice of Youth Forums. The following list identifies
SYAC's goals for next year.
