March 28, 2005
Potential revisions to Site Plan Approval Process
The Zoning Ordinance currently requires site plan approval by the Planning and Zoning
Commission and City Council for all new commercial development or redevelopment that;
· Exceeds 75% of the assessed value of the property (less land value);
· That is located on property within 200' of residential zoning or property shown on the
Comprehensive Plan to become residential, or;
· Any addition to the square footage of an existing commercial building exceeding 30%
and located within 200' of residential zoning.
Site plan approval is not a public hearing process and does not require notification of adjacent
property owners or the placement of signs on the property. In addition site plans must meet all
current ordinance requirements. no variances may be requested.
Recently, staff has received numerous inquiries from the development community concerning
the limiting of the site plan approval process to just the staff or Planning and Zoning Commission
level of review. Staff is seeking input and direction from the City Council with regard to potential
revisions to the current process that Council may feel are warranted.

INFORMAL REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
No. I R 2005-045

T Subject:
March 28, 2005
Pilot Program for Outsourcing Parks Mowing
The Parks Maintenance and Operations Division has adopted annual goals and objectives that
include maximizing all available resources to provide the highest level of maintenance
standards possible and implement staffing strategies to address continued growth of the
park system. In accordance with these goals and objectives, staff regularly evaluates efficient
and effective operational strategies to ensure maximizing all available resources to provide the
highest level of maintenance standards possible.
While addressing these objectives, staff looked at potential cost savings and level of service
enhancements that could result from outsourcing certain tasks. Staff has concluded that this
approach can provide the opportunity to improve productivity and efficiency in a fiscally
responsible manner and is recommending a pilot program to outsource mowing in lieu of hiring
the four approved mid year maintenance workers included in this fiscal year. The benefits of
this approach are included in this report.
Rationale
Skilled versus Unskilled Labor
All maintenance tasks performed by park crews and the total man-hour percentages to perform
each task are as follows:
Park Support 20.10%
Playground inspections, vandalism repair, fencing,
infrastructure repair, painting, renovation)
Horticultural Services 19.70%
Bed weeding, hand watering, seasonal color,
pruning, top dressing, aeration, pond maintenance
Trimmina/Edaina 17.60%
Litter Control 13.60%
Sports Field Preparation 11 .90%
Mowina 6.40%
Irriqation 4.60%
Repairs and preventative maintenance
Cleaninq 4.00%
Restrooms, pavilions, grills, tables, benches
,.
ISSUED BY THE CITY MANAGER
NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS
~
Chemical Control
Weed, insect, fertilize
2.10%
Mowing, string trimming and edging represent 24% of the total annual maintenance man-hours.
General mowing maintenance requires minimal training, experience and skill, with the
exception of these same maintenance tasks associated with competitive level sports fields and
special use facilities such as NRH20. Outsourcing these specific unskilled tasks could
potentially provide cost savings over the next few years while improving the level of
service. The Parks Division currently maintains 720 acres of parkland. By outsourcing mowing,
we will be able to reduce the man-hour deficit we currently have to maintain maintenance
standards.
Lonqevity
While the City promotes longevity and stability of employees resulting in increased wages
through the years, private landscape maintenance contractors typically "layoff' nearly 90% of
their unskilled work force during the off season. These practices result in private landscape
maintenance contractors having lower costs for performing unskilled tasks compared to the City
performing the same tasks. Performing skilled services in-house requiring special licenses
and/or training such as chemical applications are still cost beneficial to the City.
Indirect Benefits and Lonq Term Savinqs
Limiting or controlling staffing levels offers the following:
Reduces potential for liability and worker's compensation claims that can potentially
increase the City's cost responsibilities.
Fewer employee insurance issues and associated benefit costs.
Reduces additional maintenance facility space needs for workers and equipment resulting in
new capital and operating expenditures.
Eliminates annual depreciation costs for replacement of mowing equipment.
Eliminates need for additional general mowing equipment capital costs arising from
obligation to mow newly constructed parks and open spaces.
Reduces fuel and equipment maintenance expenditures.
Improved Level of Service
Man-hours not expended on unskilled tasks (general mowing) can be directed toward skilled
tasks such as Park Support (playground inspections infrastructure repairs, renovations,
construction), Chemical Applications, Athletic Field Preparation, and Horticultural Services
(aeration, top dressing, pond maintenance, landscaping), thus increasing the quality of service
in these areas.
By contracting as much general mowing maintenance as possible, the City may afford the
opportunity to increase the level of park maintenance service while maintaining or decreasing
the overall cost.
ISSUED BY THE CITY MANAGER
NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS
Staff is recommending that in lieu of hiring the four approved mid-year maintenance workers
included in the FY 2004/05 budget, the funds associated with the approved decision package,
along with other associated costs attributed to general mowing, be re-directed towards a
mowing contract for FY 2004/05.
The current 2004/05 A roved Decision Packa e includes the tollowin items: A ril- September)
Labor $71,461
Clothing $1,600
Minor Hand Tools $2,100
Pickup Truck $28,200
Fuel/Maintenance $2,812
Parks and Grounds $4,500
(repairs, parts & other mowing costs)
Total $110,673
In addition to the funds approved as part of the approved Decision Package, the following park
maintenance funds approved in the FY 2004/05 Maintenance and Operations budget are
attributed to general parks mowing maintenance.
· Undeveloped Mowing - $15,000
· Seasonal Employees - $17,000
· Parks and Grounds - $12,500
Available Funds to Apply to the Parks Mowing Contract for FY 2004/05
Decision Package Funds
Budgeted Mowing Funds
$110,673
$44,500
$155,173
Total available funds
Executing a mowing contract mid-year (April- September), will use a maximum of 26 mowing
cycles. Based on the competitive pricing, the estimated general mowing contract expenditure
for FY 2004/05 would be $154,992. The contract amount will increase next fiscal year to
include a full year but will not increase the overall projected budget for FY 2005/06 which
would have included the four full-time 12 month positions and associated costs.
If City Council concurs with this approach to managing our resources, staff will bid out the
mowing services and the program will be evaluated during fiscal year 2005/06 to measure the
success of the program and its continuation.
Staff will present a power point presentation on this item during the Pre-Council Meeting.

1. Discuss items from Special March 07. 2005 City Council Meeting
Agenda Item 7b - FP 2004-11 - Councilwoman Cox questioned the front width of the
lot being 78 feet and 22 % feet being a drainage and utility easement leaving a little
over 50 feet to build on. Mr. Green advised that was correct. The structure that will be
built on the lot will most likely be different from the rest of the neighborhood because of
the lot size and easements. The structure probably will be long and narrow and
possibly a two-story structure.

Agenda Item 7a - Councilwoman Compton advised that in the February 28,2005
minutes, the council person who seconded the motion was missing in Item No. 13. The
City Secretary advised that the minutes would be corrected to reflect the council person
who seconded the motion and the approval of the minutes on the consent agenda will
include the correction.
2. IR 2005-034 Status of the Capital Improvements Proarams and Bond Sale
Mr. Koonce presented a status report of the Capital Improvement Program and
discussed the funding needs for the projects. There are several projects in the 2004-05
Capital Projects Budget that will require debt financing. The total projects originally
budgeted for 2005 was $4,255,000. Management and staff can identify $1,145,000 of
projects that are in process or will require fÜnding before Spring of 2006. Some of the
2005 budgeted projects have been delayed. The Glenview Drive project contract came
in much lower than the original estimate and the Public Works staff has determined that
the $590,000 included in the 2005 bond salø estimate will not need to be sold for the
project. The recommendation of staff is to move these funds into the unspecified
streets section of the 2003 Bond Election projects. Other changes in project status
include a recommendation that the Tiburon Public Safety Software/Hardware Upgrade
project be funded with Information Services cash reserves. The fiscal year end cash
reserves balance was better than anticipated and staff recommendation is to complete
all of the Information Services projects with pay-as-you-go. Management and staff are
recommending that the City not issue debt in 2005 based on the changes in the status
of the bond sale projects. It is further recommended that these projects be included in
the 2006 bond sale, with the exception of the Tiburon pay-as-you-go project. The
projects totaling $1,145,000 will all be started and completed as planned in the 2005
CIP budget. A resolution will be brought forward for Council approval to give the ability
to reimburse any 2005 project expenditures with 2006 bond proceeds. Any funds spent
from cash reserves in 2005 will need to be reimbursed with the 2006 bond sale.
Councilwoman Johnson questioned the delay in the Rufe Snow project. Public Works
Director Mike Curtis explained the project had been delayed by COG and TxDOT and
the additional funds would not be needed in 2005. Councilwoman Compton questioned
what improvements were to be made to the Davis Boulevard/Mid Cities project.
Councilwoman Bielik questioned if the $1,145,000 needed was covered in the general
obligation bonds. Mr. Koonce advised it was in the 2003 bond authorization. The
consensus of the Council was to proceed with the recommendations of management
and staff.
3. IR 2005-035 Discuss Early Voting Schedule
Ms. Hutson advised that Mayor Trevino had inquired about the upcoming election and
the early voting schedule. The Mayor had learned that some of the area cities were
having early voting on Saturday and had inquired if this was possible in North Richland
Hills to allow more voting options. Ms. Hutson advised if Council desired, early voting

Subject: Approve Cooperative Driver Traininq Interlocal Aqreement Agenda Number: GN 2005-029
- Resolution No. 2005- 018
The Police Department has participated for several years in the operation of a multi-
agency training program that provides vital driver training to police officers who may
become engaged in emergency responses and high speed pursuits. This informal training
cooperative between the Cities of North Richland Hills, Grapevine, Hurst, Lewisville,
Bedford, and Euless has evolved to a point where a formal interlocal agreement is now
needed to lawfully acquire and purchase equipment and supplies for the group, and
establish universally observed administrative controls for the conduct of the students and
instructors from the various agencies that become associated with the training program.
The Cooperative Driver Training Interlocal Agreement effectively provides for or
accomplishes the following:
· Safeguards each participating City's interests in providing their police officers with
the best driver training available.
· Establishes an interagency policy for procuring, maintaining, and liquidating of
group assets.
· Establishes rules of conduct for instructors and students to ensure the effectiveness
and integrity of the training program.
.
The Police Department has participated in this training program extensively in the past and
recognizes the benefits it provides toward the safe and efficient functioning of our sworn
police personnel in emergency response situations. It is beneficial and desirable for the
City of North Richland Hills to continue its active participation in this training cooperative.
This Interlocal Agreement has been reviewed and approved by the City Attorney.

Council Meeting Date: 03/28/2005
Subject: Award Bid for Two Tractor/Loader Backhoes to Continental Agenda Number: PU 2005-010
Equipment in the Amount of $101,254
In the 2004/05 approved budget, Council appropriated funds for the replacement of two
tractor/loader backhoes for the Public Works Department. Formal bids were solicited and
the results are outlined below.
Continental Equipment
Landmark Equipment
ESS Equipment
Holt Cat
RDO Equipment
$101,254
$109,714
$120,670
$127,630
$145,868
The new equipment will replace two 1994 Case backhoes utilized by the Public Works
Utility and Utility Construction Divisions. The Case backhoe currently assigned to the Utility
division is in better condition than a 1990 John Deere backhoe assigned to Iron Horse Golf
Course. When the new Komatsu backhoes are delivered the Case assigned to Public
Works/Utility will be transferred to the golf course to replace the John Deere. Because the
backhoe at the golf course does not get the daily use or wear and tear as in the Public
Works Department, the Case backhoe can be utilized by the golf course for another three
or four years.
All the bid prices include a trade-in allowance for the old equipment. The bid price by
Continental Equipment includes a trade-in amount of $10,000 for the 1994 Case and
$8,000 for the 1990 John Deere. They can deliver the new backhoes in 60 days and the
bid amount is within the budget amount of $140,000.
Recommendation: To award the bid for two Tractor/Loader Backhoes to Continental
Equipment in the Amount of $101,254.

Council Meeting Date: 3/28/2005
Subject: Authorize Modification of Depository Contract with Bank Agenda Number: PU 2005-013
of America to add Credit Card Transaction Processing
Services - Resolution No. 2005-019
The City has an agreement, which expires in April, for the processing of credit card
transactions for payment of various types of City services. The City accepts MasterCard,
Visa, American Express, Discover and debit cards. Neighborhood Services, Utility
Customer Service, Library, Municipal Court, Planning and Inspections, Recreation Center,
Richland Tennis Center and NRH20 utilize services under the current agreement.
At the September 13, 2004 meeting, Council awarded the depository contract to Bank of
America (PU 2004-036). The banking services proposal documents contained a request
for credit card transaction processing services which was not awarded at the time of the
depository contract due to the existing agreement still in effect. The Bank of America
proposal is competitive and cost effective. Staff compared the pricing submitted by Bank
of America and another vendor to the prices in the expiring agreement. The Bank of
America charges will be estimated over $17,000 per year lower than the expiring
agreement and over $4,000 lower than the prices quoted by the other vendor. Attached is
a spreadsheet detailing the approximate savings for each department utilizing credit card
processing services. Under the Bank of America agreement there will be no additional
processing fees that are charged by other processing vendors. The support agreement
includes terminal maintenance as well as all supplies and associated shipping charges.
Because of the cost savings involved, Staff feels the Bank of America proposal is the most
financially beneficial to the City. The contract modification has been discussed with the
City Attorney and he confirms Staff is proceeding appropriately.
Recommendation: To approve Resolution No. 2005-019.

Department: Finance / Communications
Council Meeting Date: 3/28/2005
Subject: Award Bid for Annual Contract to Print Various City
Newsletters and Brochures -Resolution No. 2005-024
Agenda Number: PU 2005-014
In the 2004/2005 approved budget, Council appropriated funds for the printing of various
brochures and newsletters. Formal bids were solicited for an annual contract to include
printing and delivery of four different publications. The publications included in the bid are
the City Newsletter for the Communications Department, NRH Upclose for Economic
Development and the Time of Your Life Brochure and the Tennis Center brochure for the
Parks and Recreation Department. The Parks and Recreation Department plans to
resume publishing the "Time of Your Life" brochure three times a year instead of the two
times it was published last year. In FY 2003/04 the brochure was reduced to two
publications annually; however, the result was greatly reduced fees paid for enrollment in
various City programs at the Recreation Center. Current funding is available to resume
the production of the third brochure. The City Newsletter and the Tennis Center brochure
will be published three times annually and NRH Upclose will be published two times
annually.
Because the content of each issue will vary depending on the information to be included,
vendors were requested to submit a quote for printing one issue of each newsletter or
brochure as a sample. Attached is a spreadsheet detailing the bids submitted with the
recommended bid award for each publication highlighted. Hurst-Euless Printing has
previously done work for the City and has always produced quality work. The references
checked for Brodnax and Mac Direct all responded favorably.
Recommendation: To approve Resolution No. 2005-024.

Vendors were supplied a list of items and estimated quantities to bid on and will be required to
hold the prices for a one year period. Sign blanks, sign faces, street markers, and reflective
sheeting are some of the items included and will be ordered and delivered on an as need basis.
The specifications were divided into four sections of like items and materials. A bid was
considered incomplete if the vendor did not bid on all items within a section. Nippon Carbide
submitted a bid for only four of the eleven items listed in Section A and Rocal only submitted a bid
for five of the nine items listed in Section C. Hall Signs delivery drivers do not unload items from
the truck. That would be the responsibility of City employees.
Staff is requesting sections A & B for sign blanks, sign faces and reflective sheeting be awarded to
Rocal, Inc. in the amount of $49,574; section C for sign post materials be awarded to Roadrunner
Traffic Supply in the amount of $15,910 and section 0 for pavement marking supplies and
miscellaneous items be awarded to Centerline Supply in the amount of $25,266. These are the
low bids meeting the specifications for each section. Based on the estimated quantities included
in the bid, purchases will stay within the 2004/2005 budget.
Recommendation: To award the annual contract for sections A & B for sign blanks and faces and
reflective sheeting to Rocal, Inc. in the amount of $49,574; section C for sign post materials to
Roadrunner Traffic Supply in the amount of $15,910 and section 0 for pavement marking supplies
to Centerline Supply in the amount of $25,266 and approve Resolution No. 2005-022 authorizing
the City Manager to execute the contract.

Subject: Approve Final Payment to N.G. Paintinq. L.P.. in the Agenda Number: PAY 2005-002
Amount of $31 ,295.00 for the Booth Calloway 2.0 Million
Gallon Ground Storage Tank Rehabilitation Project
This project consisted of structural repair and repainting of the existing Booth Calloway 2.0
Million Gallon (MG) ground storage tank located at Conn Drive and Booth Calloway Road.
The project was awarded by Council on September 27, 2004, PW 2004-016 for
$264,900.00 to N.G. Painting, L.P. Final payment will make the contractor's total earnings
on the project $264,900.00. The painting portion of the project is totally complete, with all
final adjustments having been made.
There are currently 2 tasks remaining to be completed on this CIP project. Staff believed
we could handle these 2 tasks at a lower cost and therefore did not include in the scope of
work for the actual painting of the tank. The remaining tasks are:
1. Remediate the site for pre-existing soil conditions for lead, barium and chromium
levels. The levels do not present a danger, but exceed current State standards.
2. Emergency back up power.
The remaining tasks will be completed in the very near future.
Recommendation: To approve final payment in the amount of $31 ,295.00 to N.G.
Painting, L.P.

Department: Planninç¡ Department
Council Meeting Date: 3/28/05
Subject: Public Hearinç¡ and Consideration of a Request from North Agenda Number: LRB 2005-01
Hills Hospital for a Variance from Landscape Ordinance No. 2473 in the 7700 Block of Rodger
Line Drive.
Case Summary: The applicant is proposing to expand an existing parking lot at the above
location from 204 spaces to 355 spaces. The subject parking lot is located west of the main
hospital building along Rodger Line Drive. The parking lot is being expanded to accommodate
the additional required parking spaces necessitated by the Hospital's expansion project, as well
as to supplement parking spaces that will be lost during the expansion project due to equipment
and material storage.
The proposed parking lot expansion amounts to approximately 75% of the existing lot. When
an expansion of this scale is proposed, the Landscape Ordinance requires the entire parking lot
to meet current standards. To meet this requirement the existing row of parking spaces along
Rodger Line Drive would need to be removed and replaced by a 15' landscape setback;
thereby decreasing the number of available parking spaces.
The Landscape Ordinance provides for variances by the Landscape Review Board (City
Council) for situations whereby the variance would not be contrary to the public interest and
where enforcement of the ordinance would lead to an unnecessary hardship.
Variances Requested bv this Plan
· A variance from the required 15' landscaped setback along Rodger Line Drive, and;
· A variance from providing the street trees and parking lot screening in the 15' setback
along Rodger Line Drive.
Proposed Landscaping: In lieu of providing the required 15' landscape setback and parking
lot screening along the exterior boundary of the parking lot (Rodger Line Drive frontage), the
Hospital is proposing a substantial increase (60% above requirements) in the amount of
landscaping within the parking lot itself. For example, the landscape plan proposes a total of 30
trees within the lot versus 18 trees that are required. The proposed trees are situated
throughout the interior and primarily along the lot's boundary with the Calloway Branch
drainageway.

CITY OF
NORTH RICHLAND HILLS
Basis for Variance:
.
The Hospital has worked with staff to maintain a twenty foot wide open space on the west
side of the proposed parking lot in an effort to preserve the required area needed for a
future hike and bike trail. The Hospital's commitment to the preservation of the hike and
bike trail inadvertently causes them to lose a number of parking spaces that could otherwise
be utilized by hospital visitors and patients.
The Hospital's expansion to the overall building square footage has sparked the zoning
requirement to provide additional parking spaces. The proposed parking lot expansion
exceeds the minimum number of parking spaces spelled out in the zoning ordinance;
however, in an effort to alleviate current parking congestion on adjacent residential streets,
the Hospital is proposing to provide additional spaces.
A portion of the proposed parking lot expansion (located towards the northeast side of the
project) currently exists which does not contain the 15 foot landscaped setback or the
required landscaping features. The Hospital wishes to continue the alignment of this
existing parking lot in order to maintain the general appearance without having to destroy
existing parking spaces. The strict enforcement of the Landscaping Ordinance in this
aspect would result in the Hospital losing existing parking.
Staff Recommendation: Expansion of the existing parking lot is constricted by adjacent
streets, circulation connections with other parking areas, hospital facilities and the future
hike/bike trail. Staff is in support of this variance request due to the Hospital's efforts to
grant the required space needed to support a hike-bike trail through the Hospital campus;
the Hospital's eagerness to ease the amount of visitor/patient parking in the adjacent
neighborhood streets; the Hospital's efforts to exceed all other landscaping requirements by
providing significantly more landscaping features than what is generally required by
ordinance; and the Hospital's desire to provide a modern, consistent, streetscape along
Rodger Line Drive.
Staff recognizes and supports the applicant's plans to maximize parking potential while
making a concerted effort to meet the intent of the ordinance.
If Council determines that this landscape variance is acceptable, the following motion
is recommended: Approval of LRB 2005-01 as submitted.

Department: Public Works
Council Meeting Date: 3/28/05
Subject: Public Hearinç¡ and Consideration for Comprehensive
Land Use Plan, Impact Fee CIP Program and Impact
Fee Rates - Ordinance No. 2826 .
Agenda Number: GN 2005-030
In September 2001, the State Legislature passed Senate Bill 243 which describes the
procedure all municipalities shall follow to implement an impact fee. An impact fee is
defined as a charge or assessment imposed by a political subdivision against new
development in order to generate revenue for funding or recouping the costs of capital
improvements necessitated by and attributable to such development.
The City has been collecting water and wastewater impact fees on new service
connections since June 1990 in accordance with State law. State law requires the City to
review the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) and impact fees every five years and update if
necessary. The maximum time frame between updates is 10 years. The last update to
the City's plan was performed in 1997.
An impact fee update consists of 3 key components.
1. Land Use Assumptions - Since impact fees are based on a 10 year development
plan, the City must have adopted land use assumptions. The land use assumptions
consists of the growth trends, development patterns, and population projections.
The basis for many of these assumptions is the City's Comprehensive Land Use
Plan. This plan represents the type of development the City is expecting to occur in
the City.
The Council recently went through a very thorough process updating the City's
Comprehensive Land Use Plan (approved by Council April 2001). The plan used by
the City's consultant, Freese & Nichols, Inc. (F&N), was the 2001 plan including any
revisions to the plan that have been previously approved by Council.
Another significant part to the land use assumptions are population projections.
The City of North Richland Hills' total population in 2004 is projected as 61,221.
The following table shows the historical population data.

Staff presented this data to the Capital Improvement Advisory Committee (CIAC) on
. November 18,2004 (see attached letter dated December 16, 2004 to the Mayor and City
Council). The CIAC recommended that the new impact fees be established as shown below:
Fee Type Amount
Water $1,087
Wastewater $ 306
By law, Council has 30 days to make a decision on the approval of this impact fee update
and fees. If Council is ready to approve the fees after the Public Hearing, staff recommends
that the effective date of the new fees be April 1 ,2005. If Council chooses to postpone
approval staff will bring back to Council for consideration at the next scheduled Council
Meeting.
Recommendation: To approve Ordinance No. 2826 and set the water impact fee to $1,087
and the wastewater impact fee to $306 effective beginning April 1 , 2005.

Department: Economic Development
Council Meeting Date: 3/28/05
Subject: Approve Resolution Revisinç¡ Guidelines and Criteria for Agenda Number: GN2005-031
Granting Tax Abatements in Reinvestment Zones Created in the City of North Richland
Hills - Resolution 2005-025
CASE SUMMARY:
City Council first adopted a set of Guidelines and Criteria for Granting Property Tax
Abatement in Reinvestment Zones Created in the City of North Richland Hills on
September 11, 1989. The Council has made revisions to this resolution in 1992, 1997,
1998 and 2002. The revisions include the following:
1992 - to eliminate a 2 year sunset provision and to help structure abatement
agreements with AEGON/Life Investors (now UICI) and Tecnol Medical
Products
1997 - to add Regional Healthcare Facilities to include North Hills Hospital expansion
1998 - to add Regional Entertainment and Tourist Facilities to accommodate North
Hills Mall and other possible entertainment facilities
2002 - to add the ability to rebate personal property in addition to real estate to remain
· competitive with area cities.
Because staff is dealing with a number of redevelopment issues particularly in the South
Grapevine Highway and Loop 820 Corridors and to be competitive with area cities, we are
recommending a change that would allow for up to 100% property tax abatements in these
redevelopment areas. Our current guidelines only allow for up to 50% property tax
abatements throughout the city. This change would put emphasis on these redevelopment
areas and encourage development in these areas.
The City of North Richland Hills also has economic incentives dealing with sales tax
rebates and waiver of building permit fees. These areas are covered by a separate
Ordinance #2612 which was adopted in 2002.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve Resolution 2005-025.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND
HILLS, TEXAS ADOPTING GUIDELINES AND CRITERIA FOR GRANTING TAX
ABATEMENT IN REINVESTMENT ZONES CREATED IN THE CITY OF NORTH
RICH LAND HILLS.
WHEREAS, the future economic viability of the City of North Richland Hills
depends on the County's ability to attract new investment through the location of new
industry and the expansion and modernization of existing businesses; and
WHEREAS, the creation and retention of job opportunities that result from new
economic development is the highest civic priority; and
WHEREAS, the City of North Richland Hills must become and remain
competitive with other localities across the nation in the expansion of their existing
commercial base and the attraction of new commercial and industrial investment; and
WHEREAS, any tax incentives offered by the City of North Richland Hills should
be limited to those companies that create new wealth within the City; and
WHEREAS, no tax incentive offered by the City of North Richland Hills should
adversely affect the competitive position of existing companies operating in the city; and
WHEREAS, effective September 1,1987, Texas law requires counties and
municipalities, which elect to participate in tax abatement programs, to establish
guidelines and criteria governing the designation of reinvestment zones and tax
abatement program prior to granting any future tax abatement; and

hereby adopt the attached "Guidelines and Criteria" for granting tax abatement in

The U.S. Department of Justice, Bureau of Justice Assistance has notified the Police
Department that grant funds have been allocated to assist in funding law enforcement
. programs in the City of North Richland Hills under the 2005 Byrne Justice Assistance
Grant Program. To receive the grant funds, the Bureau of Justice Assistance has required
the City of North Richland Hills along with the cities of Hurst, Haltom City, Arlington, Fort
Worth and Tarrant County to file a joint application after negotiating the sharing of funds
with Tarrant County. The City of Fort Worth has agreed to act as the official filing agent for
the other cities and Tarrant County.
The municipalities involved agreed to confer 16% of their total allocated funds to Tarrant
County to satisfy the disparate certification imposed on the group by the Texas Attorney
General. Under the terms of the Interlocal Agreement, the City of North Richland Hills will
receive $15,343. There is no requirement for a cash match under the terms of the Byrne
Justice Assistance Grant program.

The Police Department plans to use the proceeds of this grant award to assist in paying
the salary of the Narcotics Investigator Supervisor (Sergeant) currently assigned to the
Metro Narcotics Intelligence and Coordination Unit (MNICU). The MNICU is a grant-funded
program that includes the operation of a multi-agency, multi-jurisdictional unit that provides
enhanced narcotics enforcement by using a cooperative approach. The program also
includes asset forfeiture and prosecution teams in the District Attorney's Office, a
countywide computerized intelligence system and an investigative liaison with law
enforcement agencies in surrounding counties. The police department has participated in
this program since 1988, and found it to be a continued benefit to the Police Department

Subject: Approve Interlocal Aqreement with the City of Keller for the Agenda Number: PW 2005-003
Design of North Tarrant Parkway from Davis Boulevard to
Whitley Road - Resolution No. 2005- 023
This Capital Improvement Project (CIP) project will consist of the desiçln of North Tarrant
Parkway from a point 1,000 feet west of Davis Boulevard to Whitley Road (in Keller). The
design will include widening the roadway from an existing 18-foot wide asphalt street to a
6-lane divided roadway with landscaped medians. The project will be designed to Texas
Department of Transportation (TxDOT) standards as required by an approved grant that
the cities received for design. This also allows options to remain open for possible future
federal grants to assist with the construction costs. If no grants are available for
construction, the City does have adequate funds to construct the section located in North
Richland Hills (approved in the 2003 Bond Program).
One stipulation of the grant the cities received for design is that the project (and the grant)
be administered by a single governmental entity. Both cities have designated North
Richland Hills to administer the grant.
Since the grant will only cover 50% of the design cost, not to exceed $725,000, an
Interlocal Agreement is required between the cities to define how the "local match" will be
paid. The key components of the Interlocal Agreement are summarized below.
. North Richland Hills (NRH) shall provide administration for a grant from TxDOT for
design of North Tarrant Parkway from Whitley Road and a point 1,000 west of Davis
Boulevard (FM 1938).
. The local match required by TxDOT shall be divided between the parties with the cost
of designing North Tarrant Parkway between the east right-of-way line of Smithfield
Road and the NRH-Keller city limit line where it crosses North Tarrant Parkway west of
Smithfield Road being divided evenly and the cost of the balance of the project to be
divided between the cities based on the estimated construction costs within each city of
the remainder of the project. All such costs shall be based on estimated construction
costs determined by the design funded by the grant.

· . If TxDOT requires that the local match be deposited before the apportionment of costs
can be determined as set forth, Keller and NRH shall each pay one half of such local
share, subject to adjustment based on the design funded by the grant.
· In the event there are expenses involved in the design or administration of the grant
which are not covered by the grant or the local match, the parties agree to share such
costs equally.
· The estimated cost for design of the project is $1,450,000. A grant has been approved
for one-half the cost of design up to a maximum amount of $725,000 by the Council of
Governments. The local match required from each city will be divided as indicated
above.
· The estimated construction cost for the project will be determined during the design
phase.
The City of Keller approved this agreement at their March 1,2005 Council Meeting.
Recommendation: To approve Resolution No. 2005-023.

Council Meeting Date: 3/28/05
Subject: Approve Local Transportation Project Advance Fundinq Agenda Number: PW 2005-004
Agreement with the Texas Department of Transportation for
North Tarrant Parkway (Davis Boulevard to Whitely Road)
This Capital Improvement Project (CIP) project will consist of the desiqn of North Tarrant
Parkway from a point 1,000 feet west of Davis Boulevard to Whitley Road (in Keller). The
design will include widening the roadway from an existing 18-foot wide asphalt street to a
6-lane divided roadway with landscaped medians. The project will be designed to Texas
Department of Transportation standards as required by an approved grant that the cities
received for design. This also allows options to remain open for possible future federal
grants to assist with the construction costs. If no grants are available for construction, the
City does have adequate funds to construct the section located in North Richland Hills
(approved in the 2003 Bond Program).
The City has been approved for a grant funding 50% of the design cost of this section of
North Tarrant Parkway, not to exceed $725,000. One of the stipulations of the grant is that
the City executes a Local Transportation Project Advance Funding Agreement (LPAFA)
with the State. The LPAFA defines the responsibilities of both parties (City and State). A
summary of the key components of the agreement are shown below.
· The City will be responsible for providing engineering services. The design will need to
be reviewed and approved by the State.
· The maximum grant available per this agreement is $725,000. The City will be
responsible for the local match and all cost overruns, unless this agreement is
amended. (Note: Local cost will be divided as outlined in separate Interlocal
Agreement with the City of Keller.)
· Right-of-way shall be the responsibility of the City. (Note: No right-of-way is
anticipated for this project.)
· This grant does not pertain to construction activities.
· The City is required to pay $25,000 to the Texas Department of Transportation upon
approval by Council of this agreement. The $25,000 represents the local contribution
for TxDOT review of the Preliminary Engineering.

1.0 Executive Summary
1.1 General Background
Texas Local Government Code Section 395 requires an impact fee analysis before impact
fees are set. Section 395 requires that land use assumptions and capital improvement
plans be updated at least every five years. The City of North Richland Hills last
performed an impact fee analysis in 2000.
The purpose of this report is to address the methodology used in the development and
calculation of water and wastewater impact fees for the City of North Richland Hills.
The methodology used herein satisfies the requirements of the Texas Local Government
Code Section 395 for the establishment of water and wastewater impact fees. The
statutory authority for Impact Fees was established by the Texas Legislature in 1987 with
the passage of Senate Bill 336 (SB 336) and is currently codified in chapter 395, of the
Texas Local Government Code as a means to allow Cities to reduce the impact growth
has on its existing customer base and to allow a mechanism to place some of the burden
of this growth to future new development. In September 2001, SB 336 was replaced by
Senate Bill 243 (SB 243) which contained several changes to the original bill. The
changes in this bill include the following:
Increased the time period that the impact fee and land use assumptions must be updated
from 3 to 5 years
A credit m~st be provided for: the portion of the ad valorem'tax revenues generated by
development during the program period that is used for payment of the roadway capital
improvements plan, or a credit equal to 50% of the total projected cost of implementing
capital improvements program
· Consolidation of the land use assumptions and capital improvements plan public
hearings
· Changes in compliance requirements as they relate to annual reporting
· Chapter 395 also identifies the items that impact fees can be used to pay for.
They are:

· Construction contract price
· Surveying and Engineering fees
· Land acquisition costs
· Fees paid to the consultant preparing or updating the capital improvements plan
(CIP)
· Projected interest charges and other finance costs for facilities expansions
identified in the CIP
· The fee can not be used to pay for:
· Construction, acquisition, or expansion of public facilities or assets other than
those identified on the capital improvements plan
· Repair, operation, or maintenance of existing or new capital improvements
· Upgrading, updating, expanding, or replacing existing capital improvements to
serve existing development in order to meet stricter safety, efficiency,
environmental, or regulatory standards
· Upgrading, updating, expanding, or replacing existing capital improvements to
provide better service to existing development
· Administrative and operating costs of the political subdivision
· Principal payments and interest or other finance charges on bonds or other
indebteness, except as allowed above
In January 2004, the City North Richland Hills, Texas, authorized Freese and Nichols,
Inc. (FNI) to perfonn an impact fee analysis on the City's water and wastewater system.
The impact fee analysis follows the general set of procedures in Subchapter B of Chapter
395, Authorization of Impact Fee.
The impact fee analysis involves determining the utilization of existing and proposed
projects required as defined by the capital improvement plan to serve new development

over the next lO-year time period. Once the utilization of a project by 2004-2014
development is detennined, a portion of a project's cost can be assigned as impact fees.
For existing or proposed projects, the impact fee is calculated as a percentage of the
project cost, based upon the percentage of the project's capacity needed to serve
development projected to occur between 2004 and 2014. Capacity serving existing
development and development projected for more than 10 years in the future cannot be
charged to impact fees.
Chapter 395 of the Texas Local Government Code states that the maximum impact fee
may not exceed the amount detennined by dividing the cost of capital improvements
needed by the total number of service units attributed to new development during the
hnpact Fee eligibility period less a credit to account for water and wastewater revenues
and property taxes used to finance capital improvement plans.
1.2 Maximum Allowable Water Impact Fee
The cost of water capital improvements to serve development projected to occur between
2004 and 2014 is $13,371,833. The increase in the number of service units due to
growth over the next ten years is projected as 6,193 service units. The maximum
allowable water impact fee is $1,087 per service unit. The maximum allowable water
impact fee calculation is summarized as follows:

2.0 Land Use Assumptions
2.1 Purpose
Chapter 395 of the Texas Local Government Code describes the process by which cities
in Texas must formulate the development of impact fees. To assist the City of North
Richland Hills in detennining the need and timing of capital improvements to serve
future development, a reasonable estimation of future growth is required. For the
purposes of detennining an impact fee structure, growth and development projections
were formulated based on assumptions pertaining to the type, location, quantity, and time
of various future land uses in the community. The purpose of this section of the report is
to establish and document the methodology used for preparing the growth and land use
assumptions for the City of North Richland Hills. These land use assumptions, which
include population projections, will become the basis for the preparation of an impact fee
for capital improvement plans for water and wastewater facilities.
2.2 Elements of the Land Use Assumptions
This section contains:
1. Explanation of the general methodology used to prepare the land use
assumptions
2. Base Year Data - Information on population and land use for the City of North
Richland Hills as of January 2004
3. Future lO-Year Data - Information on population and land use for the City of
North Richland Hills in the year 2014
4. Buildout Data - Information on population and land use for buildout of the City
of North Richland Hills
5. Population Map - Map of population projections for years 2004 and 2014 for
the City of North Richland Hills
2.3 Methodology
The Land Use Assumptions and future growth projections take into account several
factors influencing development patterns, including:

1. The character, type, density, and quantity of existing development
2. Existing zoning patterns
3. Current growth trends in the City
4. Location and configuration of vacant land
5. Availability of land for residential growth
The data to compile these land use assumptions was obtained from the Comprehensive
Land Use Plan for the City of North Richland Hills. The lO-year growth projections
were calculated based upon reasonable growth rates using past absorption rates and
development proposals known or approved by the City of North Richland Hills. Based
on the growth assumptions and capital improvements needed to support growth, it is
possible to develop an impact fee structure that fairly allocates improvement costs to
growth areas in relationship to their impact on the entire infrastructure system.
2.4 Base Data (Year 2004)
In any evaluation and projection of future land use patterns, a documentation of existing
conditions is essential. A documentation of existing land use patterns and population
was made from staff input. This documentation will serve as a base line for future
growth. Table 2.1 indicates a summary of existing land uses and populations for the City
of North Richland Hills.

2.5 Growth Assumptions
The growth was characterized based on population. A series of assumptions were made
to arrive at a reasonable growth rate. The following assumptions have been made as a
basis from which ten-year projections could be initiated.
1. Future land uses will occur as identified by current development patterns and
city staff.
2. The City will be able to finance the necessary improvements to accommodate
growth.
3. School facilities will accommodate increases in population.
2.6 10-Year Projections (Year 2014)
The lO-year projections or land use assumptions are based upon previous and current
growth rates. Since 1970, the growth rate of the City of North Richland Hills has
decreased as the City approaches buildout as indicated in Table 2.2.

As the City of North Richland Hills approaches buildout, the growth rate will tend to
slow. For the 1 O-year population projections, an average yearly growth rate of 1.6% was
determined to be a reasonable rate at which North Richland Hills can be expected to
grow. This rate was determined from recent residential development projects and the

3.0 Water and Wastewater Impact Fee Analysis
Water and wastewater impact fees are based on the capital costs a city incurs to provide the water
distribution system and wastewater system to serve development in the next ten years and the
service units added during the same time period.
The impact fee analysis for the water distribution and wastewater system is based on the capital
improvement plans developed in this report. The water and wastewater service area is shown in
Figure 3.1.
3.1 Populations
The City of North Richland Hills total population in 2004 is projected as 61,221, and the
population in 2014 is projected as 71,216. The 10-yearpopulation growth is projected to
be 9,995. To further assist in the analysis of the water and wastewater systems, the land
use assumptions were broken down into 47 Traffic Survey Zone (TSZs) as shown in
Figure 2.1. These populations were used to establish water demands and wastewater
flows, which in turn allowed sizing of proposed water and wastewater system
improvements.
3.2 Water Demands
The population data along with the Capital Improvements Plan developed future water
demands based on a projected average day per capita use and peaking factors. The
average day, maximum day, and peak hour water demands for 2004 and 2014 were
projected using the information developed by this document. These water demands are
shown in Table 3.1.

3.3 Wastewater Flows
The Capital Improvement Plan developed future wastewater flows based on a historical
data and projected average day per capita wastewater production and a peaking factor.
The average day and peak 2-hour wastewater flows for 2004 and 2014 are projected
using the same approach. The wastewater flows for 2004 and 2014 are shown in Table

In Tables 3.3 and 3.4, the percent utilization for 2004, 2014, and the lO-year period,
2004-2014 are listed. The 2004 percent utilization is the portion of a project's capacity
needed to serve existing development. It is not included as part of the impact fee
analysis. The 2014 percent utilization is the portion of the project's capacity that will be
needed to serve North Richland Hills in 2014. The 2004-2014 percent utilization is the
portion of the project's capacity needed to serve development from 2004 to 2014.
The portion of a project's total cost that is used to serve development projected to occur
from 2004 through 2014 is calculated as the total actual cost multiplied by the 2004-2014
percent utilization. Only this portion of the cost is used in the impact fee analysis.
3.5 Service Units
The maximum impact fee may not exceed the amount determined by dividing the cost of
capital improvements needed by the total number of service units attributed to new
development during the impact fee eligibility period. For the purposes of the water
impact fee analysis, a water service unit is defined as service equivalent to a water
connection for a single-family residence. The City of North Richland Hills does not
directly meter wastewater flows and bills for wastewater services based on the
customer's water consumption. The wastewater service unit is defined in terms of the
size of the water meter used. For the purposes of the impact fee analysis, a sanitary
service unit is defined as the wastewater service provided to a customer with a water
connection for a single-family residence.
The service associated with public, commercial, and industrial connections is converted
into service units based upon the capacity of the meter used to provide service. The
number of service units needed to represent each meter size is based on the maximum
rated capacity of the meters as shown in A WW A Manual 6, Water Meters -- Selection,
Installation, Testing, and Maintenance, 3rd edition, 1986. The service unit equivalent for
each meter size is listed in Table 3.5.

I Table 3.6 shows the water service units for 2004 and the projected service units for
2014. Typically, in North RicWand Hills, single-family residences are served with %-
I inch water meters. Larger meters represent public, commercial, and industrial water use.
The 2004 water meter quantities were provided by North Richland Hills. The 2014
I projected water meter quantities are based on population and commercial growth
projections.

Table 3.7 shows the wastewater service units for 2004 and the projected service units for
2014. A wastewater service unit for a single family residence is represented by a %"
water meter. Larger meters represent public, commercial, and industrial wastewater use.
The 2004 connections were provided by North Richland Hills. The 2014 projected
connections are based on population and commercial growth.

3.6 Maximum Impact Fee Calculation
The maximum impact fee that can be levied is equal to the projected capital cost needed
to serve lO-year development divided by the projected lO-year growth in service units.
The total projected costs include the projected capital improvement costs to serve lO-year
development, the projected finance cost for the capital improvements, and the consultant
cost for preparing and updating the Capital Improvement Plan.
