voted to move the State Highway 114 projects to the top of the State's priority listing for highway
projects. This means that contracts will be let for the following projects in 1999:

to deny, a super-majority vote (6 of 7) of the City Council will be required to approve this
request. Ms. Gandy stated there are no changes since the last presentation.
Larry Marshall, 905 Park View Lane, Southlake. Mr. Marshall stated the last time they were here
Councilmember Harris suggested he meet with SPIN #8.
Mayor Stacy stated without the meeting with SPIN //8 and without significant
changes, Council might have a problem approving this item. The people would
like this restaurant type use north of F.M. 1709, leaving the area south of F.M.
1709 for office use.
Councilmember David Harris stated he has met with people in Woodland Heights.
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MINUTES 10/1/96 MEETING PAGE 12 OF 18
They are concerned with what will happen to the rest of the area. He suggested
to Mr. Marshall that he get with other property owners on the south side of F.M.
1709.
Larry Marshall stated he plans to close on the property on October 8, 1996.
Mayor Stacy stated he does not want to give Mr. Marshall any false hope. He has
a couple of choices: to withdraw, to have this item turned down or to table.
Councilmember Pamela Muller stated it is not that the property owners in
Woodland Heights do not want the restaurant, they just do not want it in that
location, not knowing what will go in on the remainder of the property. She too
suggested he get with the other property owners in the area and put together an
acceptable plan for the area.
Motion was made to deny Ordinance No. 480-199, 1st reading.

Pattie Minder, 223 Eastwood Drive, Southlake. Ms. Minder, SPIN Representative
#8, stated she did not want this item to be tabled again as it upsets the
neighborhood to have to come back again and again. She noted the property
owners in Woodland Heights have not changed their minds about Cotton Patch
Restaurant. They would like to see a plan of the whole area south of F.M. 1709
in order to get a feel for what may go in.
Larry Marshall stated he will begin working with the owners on the other tracts of land in this area
in an attempt to put a larger project together.

Agenda Item #10-A. Request for Conditional Sign Permit for Dynamic Travel
Bob Whitehead, Director of Public Works, presented the request for a conditional sign permit for
Dynamic Travel and Cruise, 2325 East Southlake Blvd., Southlake. Mr. Whitehead stated the
Sign Ordinance No. 506-A, Section 19.B.2.a. specifies that the reader board signs (manual or
electronic) may only be approved as a conditional sign permit by the City Council. Section 6.A
(conditional sign permi0 further explains the purpose and evaluation criteria for a Conditional
Sign Permit. Currently there are twenty-one (21) reader boards within the City Limits; 6 to
CISD, 5 to churches, 1 to a park and 9 to commercial developments. None of the current
"Commercial" reader boards were approved by City Council under the current ordinance. The
previous ordinance allowed readerboard signs under certain conditions without City Council
approval. The proposed monument sign does conform to all requirements of the Sign Ordinance.
Steve Cosgrow, owner, stated he is moving from his SH 114 location to the new location of F.M.
1709. He stated he applied for the conditional sign permit over two months ago. He stated he
hopes to move into his new location in November 7, 1996.
Councilmember Pamela Muller suggested Council place a moratorium on reader
board signs until the City Council reviews the ordinance.
After discussion by Council, motion was made to table item #10-A, further directing the City staff
to come forward with a moratorium on reader board signs and other signs covered under the
conditional sign permit aspect of the sign ordinance, giving the Council opportunity to study the
ordinance before Council has to act on those types of issues in the future.

Agenda Item #11-A. Discussion: City Hall Site
Mayor Rick Stacy stated he has tried to keep Councilmembers informed of the discussions and
progress of the new Town Center site and if the City Hall might be a part of it. He stated Mr.
Stebbins has worked quite hard to keep him up to date and he will also keep Council up to date.
Tonight the Mayor presented a proposal from Mr. Stebbins of the property in the Town Center.
Brian Stebbins, 904 Independence Park Way, Southlake. Mr. Stebbins stated he applied for
zoning of the property, asking for a non-residential PUD. The draft contract before Council is
meant to reflect discussions that were held today. Mr. Stebbins stated he wants to be on tract by
October 14, 1996. He presented drawings of the town square and where the city hall will fit in.
He does not require the City to use their architect, but a condition is that architecturally the
design needs to fit in. He discussed a four story City Hall building, parking, an amphitheatre,
town square and a six acre tract for a city park.
A discussion was held with regard to the progress of the Municipal Complex
Planning Commission and which site the committee needs to focus on at this time.
Mr. Stebbins stated he made a presentation to the committee several weeks ago.
Councilmember Scott Martin stated there was a meeting of the committee where
the pro's and con's of each site were discussed.
Mayor Stacy stated no decision as been made as of this time as to which site the
city will build on. We are just getting to the point where a decision can be made
in the future.
Curtis Hawk stated the directors have briefly looked at the contract and they have
made their list of questions to be answered. Soon staff will be able to make a
recommendation to Council.
Mayor Stacy pointed out that the draft contract with Stebbins, is like a letter of
intent, now the blanks need to be filled in before a decision can be made.
Aaenda Item #10B. FY 1996-97 Contract Obligations-Equipment-FY 1996-97 Budeet Items
Curtis Hawk, City Manager, stated during the FY 1996-97 budget work sessions, the Council
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MINUTES 10/1/96 MEETING PAGE 15 OF 18
requested that City staff bring forward the equipment items that were planned to be funded
through Contract Obligations. These items include a variety of equipment, such as police
vehicles, computer equipment, vehicles, and lawn maintenance equipment. The obligations are
a part of the debt package for January or February of 1997. The approved capital projects will
be funded through issuance of debt at the same time.
For the FY 1996-97 Budget items, the Council was presented two schedules during the budget
work sessions that detailed a proposed two cent tax rate decrease. These schedules were included
as part of the FY 1996-97 Adopted Budget as exhibit "B,' however, the reductions were not
reflected in the FY 1996-97 Adopted Budget.
Motion was made to authorize She expenditure of the items set out by Director Campbell in his
September 18, 1996 memorandum as well as the GIS equipment and Public Works equipment as
set out in Mr. Harper's memorandum dated September 25, 1996, attached to the minutes of this
meeting.

AGENDA ITEM #4 -C
September 17, 1996
This will be the last time I stand before you as a Standing Committee Representative. You
all should have received my resignation in your packet effective today. I would like to
take this opportunity to acknowledge Curtis Hawk and the fine city staff who provides
immediate help and guidance not only for me but for other SPIN representatives as well.
Staff is able to help on questions and problems that residents are having in regards to
drainage, replacing street and stop signs, and adding the children at play signs that are
seen around town and other topics. I do not wish to slight any employees, but if I could
recognize one person, that would be Shana Yelverton. Mrs. Yelverton has had an open
door policy to all of us since the inception of SPIN in 1993. Her assistance is of great
value and she has tried to remain neutral in keeping this a citizens orientated committee as
much as possible.
During my last report in January of this year, I talked with Council about the deteriorating
condition of Continental Blvd. I thank this Council for addressing the problem by putting
Continental on the budget for 1996 -1997. Many of the residents do not use 1709 but go
down Continental to Brumlow to Highway 26 to Highway 114, and the closure of Carroll
and Continental caused many problems. When Bob Whitehead and Ron Harper schedule
the work on Continental, please inform the residents with significant lead time, especially
when the bridge will be addressed as the closure on Continental will be a major concern.
There are over 400 families who live off of Continental.
For SPIN 14, Larry Flynn has had numerous meetings with the residents in order to
address their concerns on his proposed professional office building South of 1709,
between TimberLake and Lake Crest subdivisions, and Dr. Huckabee's office. Mr. Flynn
has tabled his development until November 7, 1996 meeting of P &Z.
On Wednesday, September 11, 1996, SPINS 9, 12, 13, and 14 had a neighborhood
meeting with 40 people in attendance in regards to an assisted care living facility proposed
on the Northeast corner of 1709 and Peytonville.
Last night, SPINS 9 and 14 had a neighborhood meeting with 30 people in attendance to
meet Mayor Stacy and Mr. Hawk. Concerns included individual drainage problems, the
condition of Continental Blvd. and its future construction, the length of downtime
involving Continental and Carroll, the condition that intersection is in now, and the three
corners intersecting at Whites Chapel and Continental.
A mailer was sent out to residents in SPINS 10 and 14 to attend a meeting on Tuesday,
August 27, 1996, to find a replacement for myself and Betty Springer. Fifteen people
showed an interest by attending the meeting. David Baltimore, Laura Miklosko, Shana
Yelverton and myself gave background information and explained the SPIN process.
After further discussion, Al Moran and Doug McKelvey were chosen to be the Standing
Committee Representatives of SPINS 10 and 14 respectively. Those are the names before
you tonight. Since SPIN 14 was set up as a Neighborhood Council since its inception,
two of the Council Members were in attendance that night to assure that the Council will
continue. Not everyone has cable TV and access to Channel 25, so when emergencies
arise, there is at least one person in each subdivision that can be contacted. I believe that
Mr. McKelvey will continue with the Council, and possibly Mr. Moran will also establish a
Neighborhood Council due to the interest generated from this meeting. SPIN 9 has
recently established a Neighborhood Council. As more subdivisions come on line, it will
be practical for other SPIN Neighborhoods to establish Councils as was intended in the
Ordinance passed in 1993.

MEMORANDUM Agenda Item #9 -
September 27, 1996
TO Curtis E. Hawk, City Manager
FROM: Bob Whitehead, Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: Resolution 96-63
A Joint Resolution of Cooperation Between the Cities of Keller and Southlake; The
Town of Westlake; Trophy Club Municipal Utility District No. 1; and Lake Turner
Municipal Utility Districts (MUD) One, Two and Three, to Proceed with the Funding
Analysis for Water Supply Alternatives for the Northeast Tarrant County Regional
Water Supply
BACKGROUND
Southlake originated discussion with Fort Worth over the past two years for the need of an additional
water supply and the possibility of a regional water supply concept. In April 1995, the Northeast Tarrant
County Regional Water Supply Planning Report was prepared and has been used in various presentations
to city councils. (See attached Figure ES -1.)
Recently, the Director of Water Utilities for Fort Worth indicated that Fort Worth would be willing to
maintain the transmission water mains within the regional system as the mains will also supply an
additional "loop" to north Fort Worth and the racetrack. The Director requested a document to present
Fort Worth City Council showing that the Northeast Tarrant County Regional Water Supply System was
viable. Each one of the entities involved have talked to their councils or boards, however, no formal
action has been requested.
Therefore, the attached Resolution No. 96-63, which each entity is being asked to approve, is the first
formal expression of each entity's desire to participate in the regional water supply system. There will
be other documents for approval in the next year, such as inter -local agreements with: Trophy Club MUD
No. 1 for connecting to their 21 -inch water main; Keller and Westlake for construction of a 30-inch main;
Fort Worth for their "uniform" contract and maintenance agreement; and maybe others.
The Resolution is an expression of the City of Southlake's intent "to continue to work cooperatively
toward the completion of a regional water supply system as stated in the final report".
GARY
Staff requests that Resolution No. 96-63 be placed on the October 1, 1996 Regular City Council Agenda
for their consideration.

Agenda Item #10 -B
MEMORANDUM
September 18, 1996
TO: Lou Ann Heath, Director of Finance
FROM: Billy Campbell, Director of Public Safety
SUBJECT: Capital Purchasing
I understand the process of which the Council has imposed upon us for capital item purchases. If I
may, I would like to comment on various items listed on your Items Funded Through Contract
Obligations list concerning the time sequence of purchases.
Of the items listed, I am concerned with the vehicles, the Self Contained Breathing Apparatus, Life
Packs, Automatic External Defibrilators and the vehicle in Fire Services. I feel that the Self
Contained Breathing Apparatus is a safety issue that I would like to address as quickly as possible.
There will be a three to four week delivery which would give us approximately one month from the
time we order before they would demand payment.
From financial standpoint, if possible, I would like a fairly immediate go -ahead with the purchasing
of the Life Packs and the two Automatic External Defibrilators. We have a deal working with the
vendor where with the combined purchase, they will take back one of the units that we purchased last
year and replace it with a new one, and then give us a price break that would basically save us the
cost of one of the Defibrilators. The delivery date on those items are 30 -60 days.
In Police Services there were five vehicles budgeted. I would like to express the need for ordering
four of those vehicles as rapidly as possible, the two police Camaros and the two Explorers. The fifth
unit can be purchased later in the year when additional personnel come on board. Both the Camaros
and the Explorers will require lead time to equip them for duty. This will cause approximately ten
vendors to be involved in the equipping of the vehicles. Receiving these vehicles, equipping them and
placing them into service will automatically release some other vehicles to go to their intended areas,
thus freeing up equipment to be utilized as they are intended. Delivery time on the police vehicles
is two weeks to 60 days. In Fire Services, the fire vehicle is a necessary piece of equipment. Upon
delivery, we will be moving the existing piece of equipment that will need to be refitted. somewhat
and given to Support Services, at which time we will be able to engage in some other projects that
we have funded.
Other items on the list, while important, can be purchased when funds are available without seriously
impacting either service or the implementation of programs.
I am available if you have any comments or questions.

MEMORANDUM
September 25, 1996
TO: LouAnn Heath, Director of Finance
FROM: Ron Harper, City Engineer
SUBJECT: GIS and Engineering Computer Expenditures - Fiscal Year 1996/1997
We would like authorization to expend funds approved in the 96/97 Budget and covered in the
"Contract Obligation" bond issue. These funds relate to the continuation of the GIS program and
the design of several in -house projects in conjunction with the public works facility on Continental
Boulevard.
GIS - The GIS program has been such a success that we have exceeded our schedule and have
begun providing services to a variety of departments including Community Development, Finance,
Public Safety, and Economic Development. We are at a stage in the development of this program
that in order to do new tasks on the system we continually need to remove data on the hard drive.
We would like authorization to purchase the hard drive and system upgrades as shown in the
budget. This would result in an expenditure of $5,100 (Disk Space - $1,600, Memory Upgrade for
Sun Work Station - $3,200, Memory Upgrade for Plotter - $300).
Engineering Design - We are in the process of performing several design projects in -house rather
than contracting with an outside consulting firm. In order to properly perform these designs and
to produce the proper plans we have requested and have had approved the purchase of an AutoCAD
system. In conjunction with the purchase of this software we had planned on the purchase of a
computer capable of operating the software. We would like authorization to purchase the computer
required for the operation of the AutoCAD software. This purchase will be approximately $4,300.
The remaining purchases covered by the "Contract Obligation" bond issue can be defered for a
short perio4 •f time so that Council can further deliberate.

MEMORANDUM
September 25, 1996
TO: LouAnn Heath, Director of Finance
FROM: Ron Harper, City Engineer
SUBJECT: Building Inspection and Street Department Expenditures - Fiscal Year 1996/1997
We would like authorization to expend funds approved in the 96/97 Budget and covered in the
"Contract Obligation" bond issue. These funds relate to support equipment for the newly
authorized building inspector and the need to purchase vehicular equipment for the street
department. Both of these items (pickup truck and dump truck) are typically ordered through
HGAC and may have lengthy lead times.
Building Inspection - The adopted budget made provisions for a new building inspector. We need
to provide this inspector with a vehicle and accessories. This item was covered in the Contract
Obligation list in the amount of $23,000.
Streets and Drainage - We had requested a new dump truck in the 96/97 budget. While we
probably do not need this vehicle until the second quarter, the lead time for vehicles of this type
is usually lengthy. We would like authorization to order this vehicle at this time so that we can have
it on line at the beginning of the second quarter
The remaining purchases covered by the "Contract Obligation" bond issue can be deferred for a (
short period of time so that Council can further deliberate.
