Recreational Vehicle and Boat Parking in Residential Areas
Councilwoman Johnson has requested a review of our current policies for the parking or
storing of recreational vehicles and boats in residential areas for discussion at the 6/09/03
work session.
Ordinance 2522 (adopted November 2000) permits vehicles in residential areas (including
but not limited to: trailers, recreational trailers, camper tops, boats and boat trailers) to be
parked or stored in the front yard, side yard, rear yard or side yard adjacent to a street as
long as they are parked on a paved surface of concrete or asphalt measuring 9' X 18'.
Vehicles parked on a side yard, rear yard or side yard adjacent to a street must also be
screened from view of public streets by a 6' solid fence. The parking or storage of vehicles
on public streets is limited to no more than 48 hours and is enforced by the Police
Department.
The following is a summary of adjacent cities' regulations for recreational vehicle parking.
Southlake
a. Shall be parked in an enclosed garage or carport, behind a building line;
.. Shall be located on an approved driveway if on a lot less than two acres in size.
Collevville
. Be on site for fewer than 180 days;
. Be fully licensed and ready for highway use
Hurst
· Vehicles in excess of 21 feet long, 8 feet tall, or 7' in width including trailers, boat
trailers or boats are not permitted on any public street, parkway, boulevard or other public
way between the hours of 9:00 P.M. and 5:00 a.m. the next day.
Watauaa
· Unlawful to leave, park or stand upon any public street, road, alley parkway, boulevard, or
public place for more than 3 consecutive hours.
· Shall be parked on private property so as not to interfere with pedestrian or motor vehicle
safety.
Euless
· Must be parked on a paved surface within the side or rear yard of a single or two family
residence;
· Must be screened with landscaping or wood fence.

J¡.
In 1998, the Ad-Hoc Code Enforcement Advisory Committee met to discuss among
other items, revisions to the regulations concerning the parking of recreational vehicles
and boats in residential areas. Following their research the Committee did not bring
forward any recommendations concerning recreational vehicle parking for Council's
consideration.
If council is interested in pursuing a recreational vehicle parking ordinance that would
. prohibit parking.in the frontof residential areas, staff needs direction as to how to
develop an ordinance. For example, would Council want to totally prohibit all such
vehicles, or only ones of a certain size? Would you want to restrict them to the setback
line of the house? Would you allow smaller camper tents, dirt bikes on trailers to be
parked in driveways, etc.?
If the current Ordinance is revised to require recreational vehicles to park behind the
front building line of residences, then many properties may not be able to physically
comply with the regulation. In these instances, the owners of recreational vehicles
might be forced to remove their vehicles to commercial storage facilities that could be
located some distance away. In addition, issues concerning the treatment of existing
storage situations versus new would be enforcement considerations.
Again, if Council wishes to pursue this matter, staff would appreciate direction as to how
extensive you would like to proceed.

Mr. John Pitstick advised council that plans are continuing for the Northeast Job Access
program. The North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) has contracted
with The T to manage the program and The T has contracted with an independent
service provider to make shuttle bus service available from the Trinity Railway Express
to major employment centers in participating cities. The City of North Richland Hills
may be the first city to implement the service. The City chose UICI and Tarrant County
College as the two employers to begin implementation. The City met with both
employers, familiarized them with the program and introduced them to representatives
from The T and NCTCOG. Surveys were given to employers to determine prime
candidates who may take advantage of the program. The response from the employers
seems positive and if UICI is still interested as they receive the survey results The Twill
make a presentation to their employees. Tarrant County College has expressed
interest to kick off the program at the beginning of the fall. The grant to fund the
Northeast Job Access program is a $1.5 million matching federal grant to be split
among all participating cities. Staff will bring forward an interlocal agreement for
council's approval to continue participation in program within the next couple of months.

GN 2003-064 APPROVE A "NO PARKING" ZONE ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF
HARMONSON ROAD EAST OF DAWN DRIVE TO HONEY LANE
- ORDINANCE NO. 2708
APPROVED
Mayor Trevino informed council the request before them is a result of a citizen's
presentation brought before council at a previous meeting.
Mr. Curtis advised council that the Public Works department conducted some studies
and verified that many of the people visiting the park are parking on both sides of
Harmonson Road. Mr. Curtis informed council there is a challenge when the City erects
no parking signs in front of citizen homes, because the City is denying that property
owner and their guest an opportunity to park in front of their homes. Prior to the council
meeting, Mr. Curtis contacted all property owners with the exception of 6400
Harmonson Road and 3829 Park Oaks Court. The property owners that Mr. Curtis
spoke with were in support of the no parking signs, understood the need of the signs
and saw the benefit of the signs. The two property owners that were not personally
contacted by Mr. Curtis voiced their support to their neighbor at 6404 Harmonson Road.
Staff is recommending that no parking signs be erected on the south side of
Harmonson Road from east of Dawn Drive approximately 745 feet to Honey Lane and
be designated as "No Parking during the hours of 12 noon to 8:00 p.m., Sunday
through Saturday" zone. Mr. Curtis advised council that staff would monitor the park
and will change the times or days if needed. Mr. Curtis also mentioned that the City
has the option of a parking lot if the signs are not having the desired effect. The
parking lot would approximately cost $50,000 to $60,000.
Council discussed the effect of the no parking signs located by Linda Spurlock Park.
Councilman Lewis believes it might be more appropriate and would like to see the
hours change to read 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.
Mayor Trevino commented that the no parking signs appear to be a short-term fix, with
the parking lot being a long term fix.
Mr. Curtis advised council that staff is presenting the signs as a quick way to provide
safe access for emergency vehicles.

City Council Minutes

Page 6
Councilwoman Johnson understands that staff will incorporate the no parking signs and
if the signs do not work then a parking lot will be constructed.
Mayor Trevino stated that he understood that staff would erect the no parking signs to
allow safe passage while they study the options that are available for a long term fix.
Mr. Cunningham advised the plan is to implement the no parking signs, if approved by
council, and to see if a parking lot or some other type of improvement is needed in the
future. Mr. Cunningham informed council that a majority of the parking is related to
people who are using the park for practice fields and the park was not intended for this
use. Staff will try to encourage and educate the public to use other fields that are
designated as practice fields. Mr. Cunningham further stated that staff is not
recommending the parking lot, but will evaluate further and advise council of their
findings.
Mayor Pro Tern Tolbert asked how staff would educate the public and enforce the no
parking signs. Mayor Pro Tern Tolbert does not want to see citizen's ticketed the first
weekend.
Mr. Curtis said that he could not speak for the Police department, but believes that the
Police department would give people a warning when the signs are erected. Mr. Curtis
said that once ordinances are passed and the signs are placed if the policemen are not
aware of a grace period the citizens would be issued a citation.
Mr. Cunningham informed council when the city installs new traffic control devices the
Police department does a good job in providing a courtesy for an extended amount of
time to allow public education of the no parking signs.
COUNCILMAN LEWIS MOVED TO APPROVE ORDINANCE No. 2608 WITH THE AMENDMENT THAT
THE HOURS BE FROM 10:00 A.M. TO 8: 00 P.M. COUNCILWOMAN JOHNSON SECONDED THE
MOTION.
Councilman Metts asked staff to further study the need of a parking lot at Linda
Spurlock Park since this item is the result of residents voicing their concern during
citizen's presentation. Councilman Metts believes there will also be citizens registering
their complaints because they do not have a place to park at Linda Spurlock Park.
Motion to approve carried 7-0.

Department: Administration
Council Meeting Date: 6/9/2003
Subject: Purchase of Vehicle for the Northeast Transportation Agenda Number: PU 2003-31
Services in the Amount of $46,832 using State Grant Funds
As you know, North Richland Hills is a member of Northeast Transportation Services
(NETS) with several other Northeast Tarrant County cities. NETS provides on-call
transportation services to the elderly and disabled in northeast Tarrant County. The
primary focus of the service is to provide transportation to medical appointments and
places of employment. North Richland Hills serves as the lead agency with regard to state
funding to NETS, and this year NETS was awarded a vehicle replacement grant from the
Texas Department of Transportation (TXDOT) in the amount of $52,000.
In an effort to facilitate the quick purchase of the vehicle because of NETS urgent need for
new vehicles, the TXDOT regional office recommended that NETS join a bid that was
completed by the Heart of Texas Council of Governments (HOTCOG) for the type of
vehicle that NETS uses. The vehicle is handicap accessible and uses propane fuel per
TXDOT requirements. The bid was awarded to Classic Chevrolet in Grapevine. The Board
of the NETS Urban Transit District agreed with this approach.
The purpose of this action item is to request approval of the purchase of this vehicle so
that the City can issue a purchase order to Classic Chevrolet. Once the purchase order is
issued and the vehicle is ordered, we expect the vehicle to be delivered within 30 days.
The vehicle will be delivered to the TXDOT regional office. TXDOT will then inspect the
vehicle to determine whether to proceed with acceptance. Once the vehicle is accepted,
TXDOT will electronically transfer the grant funds to NRH, and NRH will issue a check to
Classic Chevrolet.
Recommendation
Authorizing the City to purchase a vehicle for Northeast Transportation Services from
Classic Chevrolet in the amount of $46,832 using State vehicle replacement grant funds.

Report of Youth Advisory Committee 2002-2003
To City Council of North Richland Hills
The Youth Advisory Committee has completed its sixth year of successful
accomplishments. We have worked well as a committee to achieve our goals
and. objectives for the 2002/2003 year.
This year, the Youth Advisory Committee continued its' quest to become more
involved with our local government. We had several guest speakers at our
monthly meetings which gave us a broader understanding of city government.
The Bridge Youth Shelter and the Battered Women's Shelter spoke about Social
Services, Steve Norwood and Paulette Hartman spoke about Local Government,
Dr. Larry Darlage spoke about Education, and Larry Koonce spoke about
Finance.
The Youth Advisory Committee has been greatly involved in the community. We
helped decorate cookies at the Night of Holiday Magic, and helped volunteer at
many community events. Such events were Trinity Trash Bash, Boo Bash, the
DARE event at Mountasia, Daddy/Daughter valentine dance, and Easter In The
Park. We plan to help at the Northeast Family Fourth event also.
e
The Youth Advisory Committee held its' Winter Social on January 6, 2003. We
went to Dallas for lunch at the Hard Rock Café, then to the Dallas World
Aquarium. Everyone had a great time socializing with other committee members.
We are in the process of planning our "Senior Lunch" where we get together one
last time before the school year is over and wish our senior's well as their tenure
with the Youth Advisory Committee is over. We wish our outgoing senior's the
best of luck in the future.
Due to the war in Iraq, many parents of our members' felt uneasy about letting
their children go to Killeen for the Y AC summit, and Austin to tour the Capitol
building. Therefore, we decided it was in our best interest to postpone these trips
until the 2003-2004 year.
The Youth Advisory Committee is working on a new project called Operation
Backpack, 'YAC's Got Your Back'. The committee voted early on that we want a
project we can call our own. We would like to provide backpacks with either
school supplies or gift certificates to low-income youth in the Birdville
Independent School District. We are doing this through donations and
fundraising. Letters have been sent to every principal in BISD to let them know
of the project, and we have heard great responses from them. We would like to
thank Super Target for their $50.00 donation of school supplies.
e
The Youth Advisory Committee has a new goal for the 2003-2004 school year.
We would like to maintain a full board throughout the year and begin a Resource
Committee. This committee will help with special events, fund raising, and will
e
e
e
perform duties as assigned by the board. We would like to see the Youth
Advisory Committee continue to grow, and by developing a Resource
Committee, more youth will be reached in our city.
The Youth Advisory Committee feels that the 2002/2003 year has been a great
success. We look forward to the many projects and challenges that lie in the
years ahead. We hope to continue our success in the future.

Building Design and Materials:
· Single-story, flat roof design with parapet wall;
· 31,600 square foot total (must meet architectural standards); Façade design features
including; building articulation, columns, wall light sconces, cornices, and use of
differing materials are all consistent with ordinance requirements;
· Building materials consist primarily of a red brick veneer on the Precinct Line Road
façade with painted CMU on the building rear. Split-face CMU is utilized as a
decorative feature for the bottom of columns. E.F.I.S. is utilized on the façade as well
but is limited to less than 15% and is above 8' in height. The building architecture and
the use of red brick is consistent with the existing Wal-Mart building;
· Building is oriented toward Precinct Line Road;
· Roof-mounted mechanical equipment is screened by parapet wall;
· Trash dumpsters are located in the southwest corner of the site and are screened by
materials matching the building.
Access and Parking:
· No direct access is proposed to Precinct Line Road;
· Access to the site is provided by two existing Public Access Easements from Precinct
Line Road; These easements are situated to the north and south of the project;
· Proposed parking exceeds the minimum required by the Zoning Ordinance.
Landscaping and Screening:
· The site does not have residential adjacency therefore no screening is required.
· An off-sight, screening wall, located along the east-side of the Wal-Mart building
(originally required to screen loading and truck maneuvering areas) will be removed as
the proposed building will provide screening of these areas. Removal of this wall is
also required to provide adequate fire protection to the rear of the proposed building;
A 15' landscape setback is required along that portion of Precinct Line Road that fronts this
development. A note on the plan states that a varying-width setback has been provided
due to conflicts with an existing sanitary sewer line. The applicant's proposed landscaping
in this setback and in the parking lot is consistent with the requirements of the Landscape
Ordinance.
Signage and Lighting:
· One masonry-cladded monument sign will be located in the southeast corner of the
site. The sign meets all dimensional requirements of the Sign Ordinance;;
· Two, 25' steel-pole light standards are proposed for the parking lot area. Each
standard will have 2, 400-watt metal halide lights. As mentioned earlier, the building
façade will have several wall sconces for accent lighting.

PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A REQUEST FROM K. B. ALEXANDER
ON BEHALF OF THE PROPERTY OWNER, PRECINCT VILLAGE
DEVELOPMENT, LTD., FOR A REVISION TO THE APPROVED WAL-MART
PLANNED DEVELOPMENT SITE PLAN LOCATED IN THE 8500 BLOCK OF
PRECINCT LINE ROAD (3.911 ACRES).
APPROVED
Zoning Administrator, Dave Green, explained that this request is to revise the
existing approved Wal-Mart planned development site plan. As each of the out-
parcels of the Wal-Mart PD site plan are developed, the applicants are required
to return and ask for a revision to the Wal-Mart site plan so that every stage of
the PD is reviewed. This site is on the west side of Precinct Line Road. The
Wal-Mart building is physically located to the west of this parcel. The
SuperTarget property is located to the north. The applicant is proposing a
31 ,600-sq. ft. general retail area. That is consistent with the PD zoning of the
site. The site will be accessed from two private access drives to the Wal-Mart
site. There is no direct access to this area from Precinct Line Road so therefore
there is entire frontage area that will be landscaped. A screening wall or
landscaping is not required on the rear of the property. Any non-residential
building greater than 10,OOO-sq. ft. in area must meet certain architectural
standards. This structure meets all of those standards. There are vertical and
horizontal breaks in the front façade of the building. There is accent lighting.
There is a small amount of EFIS product included in the 3-dimensional features.
Mr. Green further explained that there are certain light standards being proposed
for the site. There is some distance between the light standards, but screening is
not required, as there is no residential adjacency, although there are residential
structures across the street in Colleyville. Public Works comments state that all
requirements have been satisfied. Staff recommends approval.
Ms. Cole asked for a review of the setback on the landscaping.
Mr. Green explained that frontage on a public street requires a 15-ft. landscape
setback. However, there is a conflict in this area because there is a main sewer
line in the same ar~a. Most of the time, the landscaping will be placed in the
center of the 15-ft. landscape setback. In this case, because of the existence of
the main sewer line, the trees and the screening shrubbery are being placed
against the western edge of the 15-ft. setback so that the tree roots will not grow
directly over the sewer main.
Chairman Bowen inquired about the monument sign. Mr. Green explained that
there is one proposed monument sign to be located in the very corner of the site.
The applicant is developing only a portion of Lot 2. As future development takes
place, the applicant will not be allowed additional monument signage. Staff asks
.
.
.
that the P&Z Commission add a note to the motion for this case that signage for
future occupants of this site must meet current regulations at the time of
permitting.
The Chairman opened the Public Hearing.
Harold Whitten, 1209 Garry Lynn Dr., Colleyville, came forward. He is Vice
President of the company that is developing this project.
Chairman Bowen asked Mr. Whitten if it was understood that even if the unused
portion of Lot 2 is developed later, the applicant will only be allowed this one
monument sign. Mr. Whitten replied, "Yes, we understand that." He stated that
they had only proposed one sign from the beginning. He stated that the tenants
will utilize their own signage and that in all of the leasing negotiations that have
been done so far, they have discussed the fact that signage must comply with
City requirements.
Keith Alexander, President of K. B. Alexander Co., General Contractor for the
project came forward to answer any questions. There were no questions from
the Commission members. There were no others wishing to speak and the
Chairman closed the Public Hearing.
Mr. Schopper, seconded by Ms. Cole, motioned to approve PZ 2002-38R3
with the notation that individual signage for future occupants of this site
must meet current regulations at the time of permitting. The motion carried
unanimously (4-0).

CITY OF

Department: Planning & Inspections Department
Council Meeting Date: 6/09/03
Subject: Public Hearina to Consider a Request from James Brittain Agenda Number: PZ 2003-08
On Behalf of the Property Owner, Tarrant County, for a Zoning Change from "AG" Agricultural
to "PD" Planned Development for "U" Institutional Uses Located in the 7300 Block of Precinct
Line Road (5.346 acres) - Ordinance No. 2711
Case Summary:
The site contains the existing Tarrant County Maintenance Barn NO.3. The County is
proposing to demolish and rebuild the existing facility. The current "AG" Agricultural zoning
does not permit the rebuilding of the facility. The County is requesting a rezoning of the site
to "PD" for "U" Institutional Use so that the new facility will conform to current zoning
regulations. In addition, the County is requesting several variances from building, screening
and landscaping requirements.
Existing Land Use/Site Attributes:
As mentioned above, the site contains an existing County road maintenance facility with
offices, fueling area and storage for heavy equipment and materials.
Plat Status:
The site is not platted. A Preliminary Plat, Lot 1, Block 1 Tarrant County Northeast
Maintenance Center Addition (ref. PS 2003-16) was approved by the Planning and Zoning
Commission on May 15th.
Comprehensive Plan:
The Comprehensive Plan indicates retail commercial uses for this area. The existing and
proposed use is not supported by the Plan. However, this request does represent a
significant effort by the County to upgrade the existing facility.

Building Design and Materials:
· The Site Plan includes: a 5,879 square foot office building facing Precinct Line Road, a
11,432 square foot repair facility connected to the rear of the office building, and
approximately 23,600 square feet of storage area and open stall facilities;
· The office building will be built of 100% masonry materials (stone, brick or split-face
block). The repair facility will have a metal exterior except for the east wall (facing
Precinct Line Road) which will be masonry. The vehicle storage structures will be
mostly of metal construction with masonry end supports;
· All buildings will have metal roofs. The repair facility roof and the gas fueling station
canopy will be of a flat design while all other roofs will have a 4:12 roof pitch;
Access and Parking:
· The existing facility has two access points onto Precinct Line Road. No change is
proposed for either of these access points;
· The proposed 57 parking spaces exceeds the requirement for this facility.
Landscaping and Screening:
· A 7' ornamental steel fence with brick support columns every 20' (approx.) is proposed
along the Precinct Line Road frontage;
· The plan proposes leaving the existing cyclone fence (with barbed wire top) around the
remaining exterior boundaries of the site for security reasons. The western boundary
of the site is separated from nearby residential uses by a 100' TESCO overhead utility
easement.
· Extensive landscaping including large trees, shrubs and ground cover are proposed in
the 15' landscape setback along the Precinct Line Road frontage.
Signage and Lighting:
· A single monument sign of masonry construction is proposed for the Precinct Line
Road frontage. The sign's dimensions are consistent with Sign Ordinance
requirements;
· The Plan does not show specific exterior lighting features, however, a note on the plan
states that no lighting will be permitted to reflect on adjacent dwellings or interfere with
traffic control devices.
Variance Requests:
This request is characterized as a "RD" Redevelopment Planned Development. Under the
Zoning Ordinance guidelines for this type of PD request, deviations from lot and area
requirements, land uses, masonry requirements, parking, access, screening, landscaping,
accessory buildings, signs, lighting, and other requirements as the City Council may deem
appropriate may be requested.
The applicant has outlined a number of building, screening, and landscape variances with
this request. The following is a short description of these variances.
· To permit metal facades for the service facility and vehicle storage buildings
(masonry required);
· To delete the building façade offset requirement for these same buildings
(required for buildings over 10,000 square foot);
CITY OF
NORTH RICHLAND HILLS
· To permit a flat roof for the fuel island canopy (4:12 roof pitch required);
· To provide asphalt paving for the vehicle storage stalls (concrete required);
· To provide relief from constructing required sidewalk along Precinct Line Road
until the adjacent property to the north is developed; (sidewalk required with new
development)
· To keep the existing cyclone and barbed-wire fencing along the west property
line (6' masonry wall required);
· To utilize the existing live screen of shrubs along the west property line (one
large tree required each 30' in addition to shrubs) ;
· To provide relief from screening of the refuse container (masonry screening
required).
Planning and Zoning Commission Recommendation:
The Planning and Zoning Commission at their meeting on May 15, 2003, recommended
approval of PZ 2003-08 by a vote of 4-0 subject to the following stipulation:
1) That the proposed site plans and construction plans match.
Recommendation:
To uphold Planning & Zoning Commission recommendation and approve PZ 2003-
08.

PS 2003-16
CONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST FROM JAMES BRITTAIN ON BEHALF OF
TARRANT COUNTY FOR THE APPROVAL OF THE PRELIMINARY PLAT OF
LOT 1, BLOCK 1 TARRANT COUNTY NORTHEAST MAINTENANCE CENTER
ADDITION LOCATED IN THE 7300 BLOCK OF PRECINCT LINE ROAD (5.346
ACRES).
APPROVED
PZ 2003-08
PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A REQUEST FROM JAMES BRITTAIN ON
BEHALF OF TARRANT COUNTY FOR A ZONING CHANGE FROM "AG"
AGRICULTURAL TO "PD" PLANNED DEVELOPMENT FOR "U"
INSTITUTIONAL USES LOCATED IN THE 7300 BLOCK OF PRECINCT LINE
ROAD (5.345 ACRES).
APPROVED
PS 2003-16 is a preliminary plat and PZ 2003-08 is a PD request for the
development of the site. The County Maintenance Barn #3 is located on Precinct
Line Road at the intersection of the Dart rail line, which runs at a diagonal across
Precinct Line Road. The maintenance barn has been at this location for a
number of years. The County is proposing to take down the existing buildings on
the site and redevelop the site into a new maintenance center. The property has
never been platted, which is why a preliminary plat is being brought before the
P&Z Commission tonight.
The property is currently zoned agricultural and that would not allow the County
to redevelop the lot. The use on the property and the zoning of the property do
not support one another. The County is requesting site plan approval and a
revised zoning from AG district to PD Planned Development, and this would be a
planned development for all "U" institutional uses. "U" institutional would be the
subgroup description of the PD.
The current office building will be demolished and a new office building will be
built. A new maintenance building will be built behind the office building and new
stalls will be built to be used for the storing of equipment. In addition, new
parking, a new fueling area and an additional building in the back are being
proposed. The County is proposing landscaping along the Precinct Line Road
frontage and an ornamental steel fence with masonry columns along the right-of-
way. There will be landscaping around the entire perimeter of the site. Some of
the landscaping is already in place. There are numerous landscaping and
screening variances that are being requested on this property. For example,
behind the County area is a TXU overhead line in a 100-ft. wide easement, and
beyond that is a single-family residential subdivision. The residential zoning
.
extends to the back of the County property line, which requires the County to
have not only landscaping, but also a 6-ft. masonry wall. One of the variances
being requested is to leave the existing fence in place with the living screen and
not provide the 6-ft. masonry wall.
Staff recommends the following: (1) The proposed canopy for the fueling station
is a flat metal roof with metal support columns. To be consistent with the
ordinance, the canopy requires a pitched roof along with masonry support
columns. (2) The ornamental steel fence with masonry support columns be
extended along the Dart railroad line. Typically, railroad areas are along the
backside of everything, but in this case, the opportunity arises to aesthetically
raise the look of the property from the viewpoint of the Dart travelers.
.
Glen Whitley, County Commissioner, and Tracy Pelle, Architect, Tarrant County
Facilities Management, came forward. Ms. Pelle explained that this government
facility supports road crew operations within the Precinct 3 community. The
original facility was constructed in 1961-62 and consisted of an office building, a
repair garage, and a storage garage. Those buildings are still in use today along
with a training room addition that was completed in 1992 and a vehicle storage
building that was completed in 1994. The facility is now inadequate for its
number of occupants and functions. The goals of redeveloping this property are
(1) to provide a functional organization to achieve proper workflow with efficiency
in mind, and (2) to enhance the property by providing an appropriate institutional
image and setting that is compatible with the neighboring community. To
achieve these goals, it is proposed that the site be razed to make way for a new
facility, which will encompass an office building, a repair service garage, vehicle
equipment storage, and visitor/employee parking areas including a covered area
south of the office for County vehicle parking. The existing material storage bins
in the northwest corner will remain there with some reconfiguration. The existing
fuel facility, which includes the underground storage tank, dispensers and
canopy, will be relocated from the east to the north side of the property. The
function of the maintenance center is currently not permitted within the existing
zoning classification, so to allow for development of the property, the zoning
district change is being requested from the current "AG" agricultural to "U"
schools, churches, and institutional, as a PD.
Ms. Pelle explained that the variances are requested in order to preserve the
project budget. She stated that the variances target some key areas that would
not inhibit the efficiency of, or distract from, the overall appearance of the facility.
.
Mr. Whitley stated that dollars are a key issue in this project. He stated that his
staff has had to bring him screaming along. The original project began at $2.4
million and the last estimates, with the County doing about $400,000 to $500,000
of the work, bring the project to $4.0 million. The variances are critical to the
County, but they feel they will not be distracting to the public as they view the
facility. Masonry brick will be put up in the front. The sides and back will be
.
.
.
metal, but obscured from vision as people are passing on Precinct Line.
Regarding the canopy requested by staff, the existing canopy can be reused
which will save the County quite a bit of money. The Commissioner hopes that
he will be allowed to use it. He stated that it will sit back on the site so that the
people traveling north on Precinct Line would only have a very narrow window
through which to possibly look back and see the canopy. When the lot to the
north of this facility develops, southbound travelers will have an obscured vision
of the canopy.
With regard to fencing along the Dart line, before the County began this project,
they contacted Dart and asked if they were interested in the facility as a station
stop. Dart did not respond. The Commissioner estimates that there is probably
a 10- or 15-year timeframe before any progress is made with a Dart line. He
stated that what he would like to do is go with what he's got and let the City know
that in the future they will try to continue to be good neighbors and help the
neighborhood improve at that point in time.
Chairman Bowen stated that he agrees with the Commissioner that the canopy
will be pretty far removed from the street and not very visible. He stated that he
understands staffs position because over the last year or so there has been a
requirement for pitched canopies, but usually they are right on the street and very
visible.
Ms. Cole asked if the sliding gate is closed during the day or left open?
Commissioner Whitley stated that it would be open during the day. Ms. Pelle
further explained that it is a motorized gate with card access. The gate on the
north side will be open during the day. The gate on the south will be closed. Ms.
Cole asked if it is a wrought iron-type fence. Ms. Pelle responded that it will
match the ornamental metal fence.
Stuart Smith, who works for Brittain & Crawford, 3908 S. Freeway, came forward
to answer any questions regarding the preliminary plat. There were none.
The Chairman opened the public hearing required for PZ 2003-08 and asked for
anyone wishing to speak for or against to come forward. There were none and
the Chairman closed the public hearing.
Mr. Schopper, seconded by Mr. Laubacher, motioned to approve PS 2003-
16. The motion carried unanimously (4-0).
The Chairman then called for a motion on PZ 2003-08.
Mr. Schopper commented that the City Council wants to raise the bar in the City
and he stated that the County's plans are phenomenal to raise the bar. He
asked if they plan to move the pile of dirt. The Commissioner responded that
they are planning to move their mountain. Mr. Schopper stated that he agrees
.
.
.
with the Chairman regarding the canopy. He believes it can be reused and it will
be hidden. He stated that everyone's feet have been held to the fire regarding
the masonry columns, but usually those were primary facades and right on the
roadway. Mr. SChopper stated that he does not have a problem foregoing that
requirement. He would like to see something happen with the edge near the Dart
rail track. He stated that red-tipped photinias after 10 years are going to dwarf
the whole place anyway. He suggested something like an ornamental fence or
artwork perhaps that people riding the train could look at since that area is going
to end up being one of the City's front doors.
Commissioner Whitley stated that he knows that Dart has plans to go through
there, but he does not wish to spend more money right now. Mr. Schopper
responded that he is not asking the Commissioner to spend more money, but to
get creative. The Commissioner replied that every time his people get creative, it
costs him more money. Mr. Schopper commented that there are certain areas
along the rail line where there is interesting stuff like seeing cows in pens, and
artwork down by Bates Container.
The Commissioner explained that he would prefer to put a living screen up there
and forego the fence. He does not want the train riders to be able to see into the
facility, which is what a wrought iron fence would allow them to do.
Mr. Schopper stated that the eastbound passengers will see the photinias and
the front elevation with all the wrought iron. Coming back the other way, the
passengers will see the front elevation only. He asked if the area will be
irrigated. The Commissioner responded that it will be irrigated. Mr. Schopper
suggested that the P&Z Commission allow the County to proceed with their plan.
He feels they have thought it through. Mr. Schopper commended the staff for
trying to be forward thinking and raise the bar, but in this case, he feels it would
be counter-productive.
Chairman Bowen stated that he would prefer to see the living wall.
Mr. Laubacher, seconded by Mr. SChopper, motioned to approve PZ 2003-
08 making sure that the construction plans and the site plans match. The
motion carried unanimously (4-0).

Department: Planning & Inspections Department
Council Meeting Date: 6/09/03
Subject: Public Hearina to Consider a ReQuest from A. C. Mc Farland Agenda Number:PZ 2003-10
For a Zoning Change from "AG" Agricultural to "TC" Town Center District for Neighborhood
General Sub-Zone Uses Located in the 8100 Block of Bridge Street and the 6200 Block of
Shirley Drive. (4.030 acres) - Ordinance No. 2712
Case Summary:
The applicant is proposing a 36-unit town home project to be developed under the existing
Town Center Guidelines. This project, however, is not a part of the Home Town
Development. Attached is a letter from Dan Quinto, Arcadia Realty, supporting the
development of the site using Town Center concepts and following the Town Center
Regulating Plan. Staff has also received 18 letters of support and 1 letter of concern from
property owners in the adjacent Spring Oaks Estates Subdivision
Existing Land Use/Site Attributes:
The site currently contains a single-family residence with several out-buildings for the
keeping of horses.
Site Plan/Plat Status:
The site is not platted. The applicant is waiting on the result of this request before
proceeding with plat design work. The proposed lot sizes shown on the attached zoning
exhibit are consistent with the Town Center Regulating Plan.
Comprehensive Plan / Home Town Regulating Plan:
The Comprehensive Plan indicates low density residential uses for this area. The proposed
use of the site for a townhome development represents a higher density of residential use
than that proposed by the Plan.
The Town Center Regulating Plan is comprised of sub-zones that describe the type and
character of future development. The Plan does provide for townhome development in the
Neighborhood General Sub-Zone. The Regulating Plan indicates Neighborhood General
Sub-Zone uses surrounding this site on the south and portions of the west boundary. An
expansion of the Neighborhood General Sub-Zone to encompass this site would be
consistent with the Regulating Plan.

PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A REQUEST FROM A. C. MCFARLAND
FOR A ZONING CHANGE FROM "AG" AGRICULTURAL TO "TC" TOWN
CENTER DISTRICT LOCATED IN THE 8100 BLOCK OF BRIDGE STREET
AND THE 6200 BLOCK OF SHIRLEY DRIVE (4.030 ACRES).
APPROVED
Zoning Administrator, Dave Green, explained that this tract of land sits between
an existing R3 traditional residential subdivision and the Hometown subdivision.
As you drive down Bridge Street into Hometown and come upon the first 90-
degree turn, this property is located immediately on the north side of that
property. The applicants are proposing "TC" Town Center zoning. The current
zoning of the site is AG agricultural. There is a single-family structure on the site
with outbuildings. There have been horses on the site. The applicants are
planning to develop the property into townhouses. The applicants are not asking
to be part of the Hometown project. They are presenting a development of the
site based on the Town Center concept and regulating guide, which would
include building materials, architectural styles, setbacks and so forth. They are
proposing a 36-unit townhouse with a street called Ada Lane extending from
Bridge Street to Shirley Drive. Staff does not have any opposition to this request,
particularly because there is an agreement between the owner of this property
and the Hometown development that the plans for this development will be
. reviewed by the Hometown architect.
Staff has received 18 letters from property owners in the adjacent subdivision to
the east. All of the property owners state that they are in favor of the project. In
a zoning case like this, Public Works comments are not needed. Staff has no
concerns with the request. Staff is pleased that the applicant has chosen to join
hands with the development from Arcadia in producing a consistent product in
that area.
The Chairman opened the Public Hearing and called Joe Potthoff, 6709 Gascony
Place, Fort Worth, to the podium. Mr. Potthoff stated that he represents the
Newman family and the prospective purchaser, A. C. McFarland. He stated that
they are pleased to have come up with a feasible concept that is acceptable to
the surrounding property owners, especially because this was a challenging
piece of property due to its size and configuration. He explained that the
Newman's have owned the property for 50 years and wanted to be good
neighbors with the development of the property. He stated that everything they
do will be consistent with Town Center design guidelines as well as the
regulating plan.
.
Chairman Bowen noted that the townhouses will be served by alleyways in the
back. He asked if, on the northern end, will the alley open into Shirley Drive or
.
will that end be blocked off and all residents will have to go to the south end to
get out. Mr. Potthoff replied that the alleyway will open onto Shirley Dr.
The Chairman then asked Dave Green if that would present a problem since
there will be several openings close together. Mr. Green responded that it is
consistent with what is allowed in Town Center.
Ms. Cole asked if Lot 1 on the south end would barely have enough room to turn
into the garage. Mr. Potthoff responded that they tried to make it very consistent
with what is allowed in Hometown.
.
Mr. Leslie Mills, 6117 Roaring Springs Dr., a home owner in the adjacent
subdivision, Lot #5, stated that he is glad to see the zoning change from TC
rather than industrial, which was a possibility at one point. He wondered if the
developer was proposing one house connected to another all the way down the
street. Mr. Schopper stated that based on the width of the lots, it probably would
be that way. Mr. Mills stated that he was concerned about that much high
density in the area. He felt it would not be appealing to look at without some
greenery. He also felt there would be drainage problems. Chairman Bowen
explained that drainage is a platting issue and Staff will address that at the
platting stage. Mr. Mills asked if there would be easement between the fence
and alleyway or would the alleyway be against his fence line. Mr. Schopper
responded that it looks like the alleyway will be against the fence line. Mr. Mills
stated that he could be looking at damage to his fence line when people back out
of their garages. Mr. Schopper explained that this is a different kind of action and
level of intensity than an apartment complex. He mentioned that homeowners,
rather than visitors, would be using the alleyway. Ms. Cole stated that there is
some space between the property line and the driveway. Mr. Potthoff explained
that there is 5-ft. between the alley and the fence. He stated that two to four
units will be connected and then there will be breaks.
The Chairman announced that Dan Gould had filled out a card stating that he is
in favor of this request but does not wish to speak.
Dan Quinto, Arcadia, came forward. He stated that he has been working with the
applicants for a few months and they have agreed to virtually everything that
Arcadia has requested.
Robert Jones, 6201 Shirley Drive, stated that he is for the development and he
appreciates the thought that has gone into the planning of this project to make it
consistent with Town Center. He stated that his concern regards the exit of the
alleyway onto Shirley Dr. He stated that a problem already exists there because
of the narrowness of Shirley. The Chairman stated that most of the traffic would
probably exit to the south to Bridge Street because there is a light at Bridge St.
and Davis Blvd.
.
.
Lana Bills, 6105 Roaring Springs Dr., stated that she appreciates the spirit in
which this is being developed. Her property backs up to this development and
she is concerned about the drainage. She is concerned that a narrow alleyway
could subject her and her neighbor's property to additional drainage. She asked
the builder to clarify if there will be any green space or will there be concrete up
to the back of the fence. The builder responded that there will be green space.
Ms. Bills asked if the green space would be maintained so there would not be
weeds. Chairman Bowen explained that there will be a homeowners association
which typically contracts with someone to do landscaping and maintenance work.
Ms. Bills asked if the townhouses would be single or multi-story. The applicant
stated that they would be a combination. Ms. Bills stated that the two-story units
would be looking down into the neighbors backyards and as a property owner
who loves her home, she wants it noted that this is a concern for herself and
other neighboring homeowners.
.
Carol Warriner, 6109 Roaring Springs Dr., stated that she had been in contact
with James Brock and a couple of things that he told her differed from what she
has heard in this meeting. She stated that the proposed alleyway is 10-12 ft.
higher than her backyard and if the alleyway is not sloped properly, she will be
flooded. She stated that she was told that the applicant would try for a 10-ft.
buffer. The applicant responded that they are still trying for 10-ft. but are not sure
yet exactly how wide the buffer will be. Ms. Warriner stated that she was told
that these would be one-story residences. Now the plan calls for two-story
town homes, which will mean that those owners will be looking down on her
property. Chairman Bowen explained that Town Center allows two-story and
since the applicant is meeting the requirements of Town Center district, it is
probable that some will be two-story. Ms. Warriner stated that with two-story
town homes, her neighborhood will have no privacy. Chairman Bowen explained
that if and when this item goes to Council, Ms. Warriner could discuss these
matters at that time. Mr. Schopper added that this development is an evolving
thing and the layout presented tonight is premature. He explained that a layout is
not needed until the platting stage. Ms. Warriner asked if she would be notified
of the next step. Mr. Green explained that notification would be sent when the
rezoning issue goes before Council. He stated that notification is not needed for
platting.
There were no others wishing to speak and the Chairman closed the Public
Hearing.
Mr. Schopper commented that if this proposal were located anywhere other than
Town Center, he would be against it. It would not be appropriate for a suburban
low density-type residential community, but as part of Town Center, it works.
Chairman Bowen commented that he believes this will be an addition that will be
beneficial to the City and to Town Center too.
.
.
Mr. SChopper, seconded by Ms. Cole, motioned to approve PZ 2003-10.
The motion carried unanimously (4-0).

FROM:
DATE:
SUBJECT:
May 13,2003
Case #PZ 2003-10
8B 6200 block of Shirley Drive, Tracts 8A& 8B
I am in receipt of your notification and have been in contact with the Newman family
regarding their plans for this tract ofla.'1d. One concern has been solved by Mr.
McFarland and the other two concern the development phase:
The developer has indicated that the setback (buffer zone) of the alley to be constructed
adjacent to my backyard will be ten feet, rather than five. This is still quite close,
although may be workable. Our backyards are shallow; most master bedrooms are in
the rear. Therefore, a minimum of traffic up and down this alley would be desirable. He
also indicated that the ten feet would be landscaped.
The alley itself was the other concern. My property drops 10-12 feet below the Newman
property-- a rather steep hill. I was told that the alley will be slanted toward the middle
to carry the water flow away from my property and my hill. If not, my house will flood.
My greatest fear is another water problem. I know from experience that the City ofNRH
will not protect me in any way, shape or form. When my house was four years old, Craig
Riggs built his house on the vacant lot next to me. I spoke with inspector Tim Horvath
on the phone and at my property with Mr. Riggs present. I expressed my concern that
Mr. Riggs refused to cut the "V" between our properties for drainage, as I had been
required to do when my home was built. Horvath said that he would not pass final
inspection until this was done, Riggs refused to do so.
I spoke with Penny Peterson several times. Even before the final inspection, Peterson
told me that she had spoken with the City Attorney and that any damage to my property
would be between Riggs and myself. She said that I had to have mine graded three times
in order to pass because "you had a different inspector." The City ofNRH had new hire
"Myres" sign off on the final inspection for Riggs. Less than one year later, my
foundation cracked directly across from the worst drainage area between our houses.
State Farm inspectors said that water was accumulating beneath my garage slab. They
also determined that Riggs actions were "unlawful" but not "illegal." They denied my
claim and said that if Riggs failed to do the drainage, I should have. He even ran three
gutter drainpipes down the side of his house, pointing directly toward my property. He
set his sprinkler heads directly next to my fence and fence posts. The City passed that
too. My fence is rotting out. My gate on that side is unusable due to water from him.
.
.
.
So, here I am again faced with new development. I want to get my foundation fixed, as
soon as I have the money and I want to move. I found that my house is now uninsurable
to a new owner for a period of three years. Why? I had a water claim. Riggs continues
to harass me as well as causing difficulties for other neighbors regarding another issue.
He refuses to pay his homeowner's dues and dares the neighborhood association to do
something about it. Yet, I am the one who is being driven from my home. The City
supports this person's actions, no matter what.
When neighbor Russell Killen, a civil engineer, had a similar situation when he built his
house, he had a french drain installed between he and his neighbor. He was responsible
on his own. At least the City ofNRH could have made Riggs do what was required of
me. A single woman is discriminated against in this town-no question.
There must be a law that required you to notify us about the rezoning. From past
experience, I know that my concerns mean nothing when they are expressed as a single
homeowner.

CITY OF
NORTH RICHLAND HILLS
Department: Plannina & Inspections Department
Council Meeting Date: 6/09/03
Subject: Public Hearina to consider a reQuest from the North Richland Agenda Number: PS 2003-03
Hills Parks and Recreation Department on Behalf of the City and Eileen Paul for the approval of
the Final Plat of lots 3A & 3B, Block 5 Glenann Addition Located in the 8600 block of Amundson
Drive (6.927 acres).
Case Summary:
The purpose of this replat is to re-adjust the boundaries between the proposed park facility (Lot
3A) and the adjacent duplex development owned by Ms. Paul (Lot 3B).
Staff Review:The Development Review Committee has reviewed the plat and has determined
that it complies with both the Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances. Attached is a memo from
the Public Works Department stating that all staff concerns have been addressed.
Current Zoning:
Lot 3A is currently zoned "R-2" residential while Lot 3B is zoned "R-4-D" Duplex.
Comprehensive Plan:
The Comprehensive Plan indicates single family detached (Lot 3A) and duplex (Lot 3B) uses
for this area. Parks (like schools and churches) are considered part of the community fabric
and are considered appropriate uses in most areas.
Public Hearing Requirement:
The subject property was originally platted as part of the Glenann Addition, a residential
subdivision. State law requires that a public hearing be held prior to the approval of any replat
of the original addition. This request has been properly noticed for this hearing following state

CITY OF

epartment: Public Works
Council Meeting Date: 06/9/03
Subject: Approve Water Wellhead Protection Ordinance;
Ordinance No. 2696
Agenda Number: GN 2003-067
State regulations require a 150-foot radius sanitary control easement around all wells used
for potable water. The City has 5 wells that utilize underground water to supply potable
water to its citizens. These wells are very old and were installed before the Texas
Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) required sanitary control easements.
During the most recent annual inspection of the City's water system, the TCEQ indicated
that the City needed to provide documents of the Sanitary Control Easements in order to
comply with State regulations. Since we do not have the necessary easements and could
not reasonably obtain the easements, we have requested an exception from the TCEQ to
the Sanitary Control Easement Rule. The exception to the rule approved by the TCEQ
would be for the City to approve an ordinance which would provide protective measures
around the wellhead (TCEQ terminology for well sites).
Ordinance No. 2696 presented for Council consideration meets the minimum TCEQ
requirements for substitution of the recorded sanitary control easements. Some of the "key"
points of the ordinance are listed below:
· Construction that could create an unsanitary condition would not be permitted within a
150-foot radius of any City water well.
· City representatives shall be granted access to private property within 150 feet of any
water well to verify that none of the prohibited sources of pollution have been
constructed.
· Any individual that violates the ordinance can be fined in an amount not to exceed
two thousand dollars ($2,000.00).
Other cities in Northeast Tarrant County have also had to pass similar ordinances in order to
meet TCEQ regulations.
Recommendation: To Pass Ordinance No. 2696.

septic tank or sewage treatment drain fields, or improperly constructed water wells of any
depth, and all other construction or operation that could create an unsanitary condition
within, upon, or across the property, are prohibited within a 150 foot radius of any City

deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and upon final conviction thereof fined in an
amount not to exceed Two Thousand Dollars ($2,000.00). Each day any such

Subject: Amendina Ordinance No. 2424 to Reflect Chanae in Agenda Number: GN 2003-068
Rabies Vaccination Rule - Ordinance No. 2709
Ordinance No. 2709 changes the frequency of rabies vaccination required for all dogs and
cats in North Richland Hills to comply with the new rules on vaccination. On February 27,
2003, the Texas Board of Health approved amendments to Texas Administrative Code Ch.
169, Rabies Control and Eradication. The rabies vaccination schedule will still require that
dogs and cats be
· vaccinated against rabies by 4 months of age and
· be given a booster one year after the initial vaccination.
· Following these first 2 vaccinations, dog & cats can be vaccinated at either 1-year
or 3-year intervals, depending on the type of rabies vaccine used.
Currently, all dogs and cats are required to be vaccinated yearly after the initial vaccination
at 3 months and again at 12 months of age. Because most veterinarians have been using
the three year vaccination for years, the Board decided that the yearly protocol was
unnecessary to protect these animals from the rabies virus. Most states in the United
States required vaccinations every 3 years with a three year vaccine after the initial two
vaccinations.
The NRH Animal Shelter Advisory Board voted at their meeting on April 22, to support this
change to our ordinance to bring NRH in compliance with State Rules on rabies
vaccination protocols.
Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council approve Ordinance 2709
changing the way dogs and cats are vaccinated against rabies in North Richland Hills.

Kudos Korner
Every Council Meeting, we spotlight one of our employees for the great
things they do.
A letter of appreciation was received from a NRH resident for the
assistance Officers David Cullins and Jon Stieg offered after she locked her
keys and her six month old son in the vehicle. Even with the inclement
weather the officers worked hard to get inside the locked car. Afterward
they gave my son a teddy bear to console him. The resident was deeply
touched by the actions of concern and kindness.
