Amending the 1991 Edition of the Uniform Fire Code.. Billy Campbell, Director of Public Safety, led the discussion with regard to the 2"a reading of Ordinance No. 572-A, Amending the 1991 Edition of the Uniform Fire Code, adding, as requested by the Mayor, Deputy Director Garland Wilson met with the committee that was formed at the last Council meeting that included David McMahan and Terry Wilkinson. Subjects discussed at the meeting were: 1) use of alternative plumbing for sprinkler systems, 2) the requirement ofbackflow prevention, and 3) the recognition of separation walls. Campbell noted it is their recommendation that this ordinance be passed. It will accomplish the public safety issue in construction and, with the installation of sprinklers at the sites, it will also provide the opportunities to make concessions in the Fire Code to the building community that will provide financial inducements and ease of installation and retrofitting. Garland Wilson explained the issues that were discussed with the committee, identifying the alternatives. He noted the City did not have to change regulations or offer a change in regulations in order to offer the developers the different materials or incentives for use in the buildings. Curtis Hawk, City Manager, stated in the next few weeks a new ordinance on cross-connections will be presented, in which the staff will identify some of the things. He noted, staffwill continue to work with the contractors and developers as we have in the past. PUBLIC HEARING: Dan Quente, Southlake Town Center project manager, stated they have met with Deputy Director Wilson and they are in agreement with the approach and applaud them for their efforts in this issue. Motion was made to approve Ordinance No. 572-A, 2"a reading as presented. Motion: Muller Second: Moffat Mayor Rick Stacy read the caption of the ordinance into the record. Ayes: Muller, Moffat, Harris, Evans, Martin Nays: Stacy Approved: 5-1 vote REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF 11/18/97 PAGE 7 OF 13. Mayor Stacy explained his position, noting he has had a lot of heartache on this issue, stating he knows it was wrong when the ordinance was changed to 6,000 square feet in the first place. He stated he knows, since the ordinance was passed, there has been at least sixteen buildings in the neighborhood where his office is, that are just less than 6,000 square feet. Something tells him that this is wrong. Why is there that much need to build buildings just less than 6,000 feet- it is because they do not want to sprinkle them. He stated he sees what is happening and he does not think it is fair or appropriate for the City to force commercial structures to be sprinkled when we have 10,000 to 15,000 square feet houses in the community that do not have to be sprinkled. He stated he thinks this is not fair. It is onerous and improper but with all this said, he respects Director Wilson and Chief Campbell. Agenda Item #7-B. Ordinance No. 619-A. 2~d reading. Amendment to Uniform Building Code Curtis Hawk, City Manager, stated Ordinance No. 619-A, is the companion ordinance to Ordinance No. 572-A.

Repealing the Sales Tax Exemption on Telecommunications Services Curtis Hawk, City Manager, stated Ordinance No. 689, 1st reading, repealing the sales tax exemption on telecommunications services, is brought before Council at the same time as the ordinance adopting the sales and use tax for the purpose of financing the Southlake Crime Control and Prevention District. This ordinance would repeal the existing sales tax exemption on telecommunications services. In researching the provision in the Statute, staffrealized for Council to be able to repeal the exemption of telecommunications for the half cent sales tax, it would have to repeal it for all services. When the City of Southlake, began researching it, staff found out that Southlake is the only city in the area that has not repealed the exemption on telecommunication REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF 11/18/97 PAGE 9 OF 13. services. The legislation was enacted in 1987. There are some people in Southlake that are currently being taxed, possibly because of the zip code. Councilmember Scott Martin stated all citizens are currently paying the state 6% sales tax, and we are only dealing with the 2% for our own city. Motion was made to deny Ordinance No. 689, 1st reading. Motion: Muller Second: Moffat Ayes: Harris, Evans, Muller, Moffat Nays: Martin, Stacy Denied: 4-2 vote Agenda Item #8-D. Ordinance No. 684. 1gt reading. Standards Of Care Kim Lenoir, Director of Parks and Recreation, introduced Ordinance No. 684, 1st reading, standards of care for elementary-age recreation programs, addressing the need for a city to annually adopt a standards of care ordinance for elementary-age recreation programs. She noted, these are programs operated by the City which are recreation in nature and are not day care programs; therefore, requirements are different than private day care regulations. Since the City does not offer any pre-K programs longer than three (3) hours per day, the City is not required to meet the strict facility and food service requirements of the state. Since cities offer recreation programs instead of day care programs, this new law was adopted that reduced the state requirements for city recreation programs. Ms. Lenoir stated the state requires a 1/20 ratio of staff to student where the Park Board has recommended a 1/10. The recommended ratio is a "goal" of our depmhnent on many programs that we offer, but is not necessary to adopt such a strict standard in our ordinances. Mayor Stacy asked the City Attorney, E. Allen Taylor, to comment on the ordinance. Allen Taylor Jr., City Attorney, stated the proposed drat~ ordinance that came to the City Council from the Park Board contained an enchanced set of performance standards. State minimum standards state there must be one adult supervisory personnel for every twenty (20) elementary school-age children. That is the state minimum to ensure safe operation of the activity. The Park Board recommended a standard of one supervisor for ten (10) children. That does improve the supervisory ratio that obviously has positive benefits fi.om a practical sense. From the lawyers side, it creates difficulty for them. The state standard has been accepted as the minimum necessary for adequate supervision for the children. As long as the City exceeds that, the City has a very remote possibility to be found negligent for not providing adequate supervision. Although as the City Attorney pointed out one adult per ten children is a good ratio and can be implemented at budget time to hire that many people, the City should not make it a policy statement that one to ten is the City's accepted ratio, because if on an occasion a teacher is sick and does not show up, and there REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF 11/18/97 PAGE 10 OF 13. are sixteen (16) children at the park with one teacher and a child is injured, the court will judge the City against its own standard. The City does not need to be put in a policy statement in order to give the City room in case there is a problem. There may be windows of time when the City cannot perform. Motion was made to approve Ordinance No. 684, 1st reading, stipulating on page 8-D (9), that the inspection shall be made quarterly on 2-A. Motion: Martin Second: Evans Mayor Rick Stacy read the caption of the ordinance. Ayes: Martin, Evans, Muller, Moffat, Stacy Nays: Harris Approved: 5-1 vote Councilmember Scott Mart'm requested that Doug Fierce, Park Board representative and Kim Lenior, Director of Park and Recreation Department attempt to explain the issue to the Park Board as presented tonight. Agenda Item #8-E. Ordinance No. 682.1't reading. Tax Increment Financing Curtis E. Hawk, City Manager, stated in addressing the request of the Carroll Independent School District, the ordinance will expand the boundaries of the Reinvestment Zone. This idea of extending the boundaries was presented to the overlapping taxing jurisdictions at a Reinvestment Zone meeting. The body of the ordinance is almost unchanged, the primary changes will be in the exhibits. The Reinvestment Zone Project and Finance Plan will be modified to include the additional school projects and extend the roadway improvements to extend to S.H. 26. December 16, 1997 is the deadline to have everything wrapped up and this will not delay what has been done. With this ordinance the TIF has expanded from 256 acres to 384 acres. Mayor Stacy commented, "by expanding the TIF, we are not blessing the conditions that the CISD gave the Council." Motion was made to approve Ordinance No. 682-A, 1st reading. Motion: Hams Second: Evans Mayor Stacy read the caption of the ordinance into the record.

Hawk, City Manager FROM: Bob Whitehead, Director of Public Works SUBJECT: Award of Bid for the Slurry Grouting of Pipe in Timarron Bent Creek Subdivision BACKGROUND In 1994, street failures were observed in the Phase I section of Timarron. Over the course of approximately 12 months discussions were held between staff and the contractors to determine the possible causes of failures. In 1995, Wiss, Janney, Elstner Associates, Inc. was awarded a contract to investigate the possible causes of the failures with Alpha Testing doing the actual testing. In May 1996, a report was issued by Wiss, Janney, Elstner Associates, Inc. with the findings and recommended repairs. I The project was authorized by City Council for implementation in the 96 -97 budget, which allocated $650,000.00 for the entire project. The project, which originally included grouting around the sewer pipe and replacing or repairing the concrete streets, was first bid in June 1997, with a low bid of $682,024.00 by Hayward Baker Co. Council chose to reject all bids for the project and divide it into phases to spread the cost over several years. As a result, the project was divided in the following phases and, again, included grouting around the sewer and repairing or replacing the concrete streets: Phase I - Creekway Bend Phase II - Bent Creek Drive Phase III- Bent Creek Drive (West), Bent Trail Drive, Bent Trail Circle Bids for Phase I of the project were advertised on August 24 and 31, 1997. Bids were publicly opened and read aloud on September 15, 1997. The low bidder for this project is Denver Grouting, with a low base bid of $436,440.30. This bid was rejected by Council during the October 7, 1997 Regular City Council Meeting. Council then directed staff to bid the slurry grouting portion of the project only. 10B -1 Staff bid the three phases of the project for the slurry grouting only. The project was advertised on October 19 and 26, 1997. Bids were publicly opened and read aloud on November 5, 1997. The '`total amount bid" is the base bid for phase I - Creekway Bend. Bid alternate #1 represents the additional cost of slurry grouting phase II - Bent Creek Drive. Bid alternate #2 represents the additional cost of slurry grouting phase III - Bent Creek Drive(West), Bent Trail Drive, and Bent Trail Circle. BID TABULATION See attached bid tabulation sheet. It is obvious from the bid tabulation that there was some confusion among the bidders around alternates #1 and #2 as to the representation of costs for the additional phases of the project. City attorneys have recommended that Council may award a bid for the base bid (phase I - Creekway Bend) since the bids are comparable. However, alternatives #1 and #2 should be rebid if Council fords it necessary. FUNDING/FISCAL IMPACT Funds for this project were budgeted in the FY 96 - 97 CIP budget. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the award of the total bid amount of $153,013.61 to Denver Grouting for slurry grouting of pipe bedding for Creekway Bend in the Timarron Bent Creek. Please place this item on the November 18, 1997 Regular City Council Agenda for City Council review and consideration.

GL /gl q_. enc. As noted above cc: Richard Myers L:'COMDEV' W P- FILES MEMO\9- CASES'GRAPHIC:. WPD B Realty Capital Corporation • October 15, 1997 Mr. Greg Last City of Southlake 667 North Carroll Avenue Southlake, Texas 76092 RE: Proposed Road Extension Dear Greg: We would be interested in donating a 60 -foot right -of -way to the City of Southlake to facilitate the extension of Georgetown Parkway from Graphics Drive to Southlake Boulevard. Please see the proposed road extension location on the attached page. We would also be interested in paving the section of that road that is adjacent to Georgetown Park and Gordon Nettleton's property to our east. The Nettleton property is Tract 2A2 (2.53 acres) on the attached page. • Please note that we now have the Nettleton property under contract to purchase and would like to submit our re- zoning and preliminary plat applications to the City as soon as possible. Before doing so, however, I would like some feedback from you regarding the City's interest in this location for a future public street connection. From my calculations, the new parkway would be located approximately 1,100 to 1,200 feet east of the Kimball Road/Southlake Boulevard intersection. The parkway's connection to Southlake Boulevard would replace the existing driveway entrance to Georgetown Park. I believe there are several traffic flow and city planning benefits to this new road connection and look forward to working with the City to accomplish those. Thank you for your consideration of this proposal. Best regards, Richard A. Myers Attachment RFC OCT 2 0 '1997 \ A P- 920 Scu[h Main Street, Suite 170, Grapevine.
