The purpose of this report is to provide you with information regarding our legislative priorities for this session, as the 2003 State Program is on the City Council agenda for approval. As in the past, we have used four guiding principles to determine positions on the city related issues we expect will come forward during this session of the legislature. These guiding principles are local control, a predictable and sufficient level of revenue to provide for our citizens, opposition to unfunded state mandates, and quality of life. We expect the priorities this session to included: · Limiting further exemptions to the sales tax holiday, · Keeping close tabs on further exemptions and/or freezes on property taxes, · Fire department staffing issues, · Public Safety collective bargaining, · Transportation issues including a sufficient amount of state revenue for the Northeast .. Transportation Service (NETS), and ,.,. Electric deregulation issues including cost controls. We will bring you regular updates throughout the session, and will make you aware of any legislative alerts or contacts that need to be made. We look forward to discussing this with you Monday, and hearing whether you have any additional items to add to the program. :Q;:;(2 Greg Vick Assistant City Manager f~~ Paulette Hartman Assistant to the City Manager e ISSUED BY THE CITY MANAGER NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS INFORMAL REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL No. IR 03-004 ~ Date: T Subject: January 13, 2003 Council Meeting Schedule At the last Pre-council meeting, it was brought to Council's attention during the discussion of the 2003 Planning & Zoning Schedule that some of the Council meetings have a potential conflict with scheduled Council conferences. Council needs to consider the scheduling of three Council meetings so that the Planning & Zoning schedule can also be adjusted accordingly. Meetings in conflict and suggested alternate dates are: Scheduled Meetinq Potential Conflict Alternate Dates March 10, 2003 NLC Conference Washington, DC March 7-11, 2003 March 13 (Thursday) March 17 (third Monday) December 8, 2003 NLC Conference Nashville December 9-13,2003 Not Reschedule December 15 (third Monday) March 8, 2004 e NLC Conference Washington, DC March 5-9, 2004 March 11 (Thursday) March 15 (third Monday) Because the NLC Conference does not begin until December 9, the December 8 meeting could be held as scheduled. In the past the first day of the conference (December 9) has been leadership institutes and the opening session is on the second day (December 10). If Council does not plan to attend any of the Leadership Institutes, this meeting could remain as scheduled. Council is requested to review their calendars and provide input as to preference on the meeting dates.

She did receive the award from the Texas Animal Control Association.

One way she does this is to take pictures of the adoptable pets and post them on our Petfinder website. The Internet exposure has been very beneficial for adoption efforts. She and her husband, Jim, take photos of the animals, give them a name, and then upload their pictures to the website from their computer at home. The couple also actively coordinates rescue efforts, which has led to the adoption of several animals from the Animal Adoption and Rescue Center. · ..

LRB 2002-04 PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A VARIANCE REQUEST BY FRAN MCCARTHY ON BEHALF OF ALAN YOUNG BUICKJPONTIAC/GMC FROM ORDINANCE NO. 2473 LANDSCAPE REGULATIONS AT 7700 GRAPEVINE HIGHWAY APPROVED Mayor Trevino opened the Public Hearing. Mr. Fran McCarthy, representing Alan Young, appeared before the Council. Mr. McCarthy, advised council that Mr. Young is wanting to enhance his dealership and provide additional services to the community by building a car wash and oil change center. Mr. McCarthy advised that because of the configuration of the property, Mr. Young is not able to meet the required 15-foot landscape setback. Mr. McCarthy e e e City Council Minutes December 09, 2002 Page 5 explained they are able to obtain 2,900 square feet of landscape buffer with an additional 5,100 feet of landscape in the greenbelt area outside of the property line in the right-of-way and 4,300 square feet of landscaping to the south and west of the property. Mr. Pitstick summarized the case, and presented staff recommendations. Mr. Pitstick advised that the landscape plan proposes a minimum 15 feet of landscaping in the Loop 820 right-of-way beginning at the northeast corner and extending to 22 feet along the Grapevine Highway frontage. Staff does not object to the proposed landscape plan as long as the applicant obtains permission from TXDOT to landscape the highway right-of-way. Mayor Trevino called for anyone wishing to speak for or against to come forward. Mayor Trevino advised that Roselle Abarca, owner of Car Painters Collision, wished to go on record as being opposed to the request. Mr. Henry Schuman, Jr., owner of property directly behind proposed request, Schuman Automotive, was opposed to the request. Mr. Schuman advised he had talked with Mr. Curtis, Public Works Director, about his concerns, and requested that Mr. Curtis come forward to present his concerns. Mr. Curtis advised Mr. Schuman is concerned with the access easement. The Landscape Plan does show an access easement to serve several other properties. According to documents received tonight from Mr. Schuman the easement appears to be private and not a public access easement. Mr. Schuman is concerned that driveway will be utilized for another development and he personally controls the driveway access. Staff has not had time to review the documents, but does not see access to the site as an issue. At the time the site plan is submitted, Public Works will review and evaluate access at that time. Mr. Schuman is opposed to the easement being used by the general public. Mr. Cunningham advised council that the request under consideration is a landscape variance request. If the variance were to be impacted by the access easement it could be considered with request. Mr. Cunningham advised the landscape plan does not impact the easement and that the easement will have to be considered under the site plan review. Mr. Norwood clarified that this will not come back to Council as a site plan; that Mr. Curtis was referring to an internal site plan review. The site plan review will be handled at staff level. Mr. Schuman addressed the Council and voiced his opposition to the request. Mr. Schuman felt that the proposed landscape in the right-of-way would cause traffic problems. e e e City Council Minutes December 09, 2002 Page 6 Mayo Trevino called for anyone wishing to speak in favor to come forward. Mr. Alan Young, owner, spoke in favor of the request. Mr. Young advised his objective was to improve the corner aesthetically and that when the Enterprise Rent Car business moves to the new building, most likely the vacated building will be demolished which will improve visibility at the site. There being no one else wishing to speak Mayor Trevino closed the public hearing. COUNCILMAN TOLBERT MOVED TO APPROVE LRB 2002..Q4, WITH THE PROVISION THAT IF TXDOT DOES NOT GRANT THE 15-FOOT SETBACK TO ALLOW FOR LANDSCAPING IN THE RIGHT- OF..WAY, THAT THE APPLICANT BE REQUIRED TO FOLLOW NORMAL LANDSCAPE REQUIREMENTS.

On February 14, 2000 Ordinance No. 2453 was approved extending this legislation for three years. Section 370.002 of the Local Government Code adopted by the 74th Legislature on May 31, 1995 requires that: (a) Before the third anniversary of the date of adoption of a juvenile curfew ordinance by a general-law municipality or a home-rule municipality or an order of a county commissioner's court, and every third year thereafter, the governing body of the general-law municipality or home-rule municipality or the commissioner's court of the county shall: (1) review the ordinance or order's effects on the community and on problems the ordinance or order was intended to remedy; (2) conduct public hearings on the need to continue the ordinance or order; and (3) abolish, continue, or modify the ordinance or order. (b) Failure to act in accordance with subsections (a) (1) - (3) shall cause the ordinance or order to expire. The North Richland Hills Police Department has found that Ordinance No. 1994 has had a positive effect on the safety of our youth and has reduced the probability that unsupervised juveniles will become involved in crimes during late night and early morning hours.

Formal bids were solicited and the results are outlined below. Foreman's, Inc. AG Power, Inc. Saginaw Implement Jones Tractor Sales Premier AG & Lawn David's Stove Shop Pettit Machinery Lawson Implement Luber Brothers Bailey Implement Co. $52,644 (does not meet specs) $54,668 (withdrew bid) $56,487 $57,780 $57,886 $59,654 $60,063 $61 ,284 $63,128 $63,991 The bid submitted by Foreman's does not meet the minimum specifications. The specifications required the mower to be equipped with a steering wheel type of steering. The equipment bid by Foreman's has a twin stick steering that requires the operator to hold a steering handle in both hands at all times. This type of steering is very tiring to the operator's arms and wrists. This equipment is also designed differently and it would be necessary to maintain a separate parts inventory to perform the equipment maintenance. AG Power formally withdrew their bid because they were notified by John Deere that they are not eligible to participate in the Governmental Discount Program in Tarrant County and could not provide the equipment for the amount bid. Saginaw Implement is offering John Deere equipment that is identical to equipment presently in the fleet. The bid submitted by Saginaw Implement met the specifications and general conditions of the bid and can deliver the equipment within 60 days.

CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS Department: Public Works Council Meeting Date: 1/13/2003 Subject: Approve Final Pay Estimate #7 to CraiQ Olden, Inc. in the Agenda Number: PAY 2003-001 Amount of $12,142.47 for Big Fossil Creek Erosion Control, Ph. II This project was awarded by Council on January 8, 2001, PW 2001-001 for $617,847.00 to Craig Olden, Inc. Final payment will make the contractor's total earnings on the project $602,713.68, which is $15,131.32 under the contract amount. The cost savings are primarily due to unused costs associated with unknown field conditions and unused contingency funds. The contractor completed the project within the contract completion time after the "approved" delays were considered. The delays were due to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers acceptance of the project. The Corps of Engineers would not accept the project until a specified amount of vegetation had been established. All conditions of the Corps of Engineers have been met and project is complete. Recommendation: To approve final payment in the amount of $12,142.47 to Craig Olden, Inc. for Big Fossil Creek Erosion Control, Ph. II. Finance Review Source of Funds: Bonds (GO/Rev.)

Case Summary The applicants are proposing to construct a new church on the subject tract located in the "C-1" Commercial District. The Zoning Ordinance permits churches by right without any special conditions in all zoning districts except AG Agricultural and MH1 Manufactured Home. Churches, however, have been considered (by administrative policy) as non- residential uses requiring a site plan approval when residential adjacency exists. This site is bounded by a residential neighborhood along the southern boundary. The Church is proposing to develop this site in phases with each phase requiring separate approval. This plan reflects Phase I. Comprehensive Plan: The Comprehensive Plan indicates retail uses for this site. Churches are generally accepted as part of the community fabric and as such are appropriate uses in most areas. The location of a church on this site is consistent with the Plan. Plat Status: The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their December 19th meeting, approved a Preliminary Plat of Lot 1 Block 1 Center Point Addition for this site. Existing Use I Site Attributes: The site is vacant and is characterized by a relatively flat, grass surface with several small trees. Building Design and Materials: The site plan for Phase I of this development proposes a single-story, all masonry, worship facility of approximately 15, 641 square feet in size. The total height of the structure is approximately 34'-35'. The structure's overall size makes it subject to the Architectural Standards of the Zoning Ordinance. Proposed building materials consist of concrete tilt- wall panels with split-face CMU, cast-stone, and metal accents. The north elevation of the' building (oriented toward Mid-Cities Boulevard) includes a large glass entryway. The proposed materials and building design, i.e. articulation, entryway features and accents, are consistent with required architectural standards. The site plan also proposes a dumpster enclosure constructed with split-face CMU and opaque gates that meet Finance Review Source of Funds: Bonds (GOlRev.) Operating Budget Other --»2.~& Department Head Signature Account Number Sufficient Funds AvaIlable Finance Director CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS screening standards. Access and Parking: Access to the site includes two, 35' full-access points, one each from Mid-Cities Boulevard and Abbott Avenue. The access point on Mid-Cities Boulevard does not propose a median break, therefore, access is limited to east-bound traffic only. The applicant will be required by the Public Works Department to submit a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) prior to the submittal of the final plat for this site. Proposed parking consists of 152 spaces (145 req.) distributed through two parking areas located along the Mid-Cities Boulevard and Abbot Avenue frontages. A small parking area consisting of 15 spaces is located on the rear of the building. Landscaping I Screening: This site requires a 15' landscape setback along both the Mid-Cites Boulevard and Abbott Avenue frontages. The proposed landscape plan shows this required setback with the proper number of street trees. In addition to the street trees, the plan utilizes both shrubs and landscape berms to screen parking areas. A 15' landscape buffer with evergreen trees is provided along the southern boundary of Phase I to screen the site from adjacent residential uses. Future building phases will require extension of this landscape screen. Parking lot landscaping is consistent with ordinance requirements. A minimum 6' masonry screen is required along the south boundary of this site due to the adjacent residential uses. The site plan proposes a 6' concrete panel fence with brick pattern relief extending from the west property line eastward to the boundary of the proposed Phase I development. Future development phases in this area will require extension of this screening wall. Signage I Lighting: Proposed signage consists of a single monument sign located near the intersection of Mid- Cities and Abbott and a wall sign located on the Mid-Cities building façade. The monument sign is approximately 60 square feet in size with 28 square feet in sign surface area. The sign has split-face CMU surrounds with cast stone accents. Both signs are consistent with Sign Ordinance standards. The Photometric Plan indicates two, 250-watt single-mounted fixtures on 20' poles along the front building façade. Two wall-mounted 250-watt wall packs are attached to the rear of the building. Parking lot lighting consists of four, double-mounted, 250-watt light fixtures on 20' poles. Two of these light standards are situated along the Mid-Cities Boulevard frontage and two along the Abbott Avenue frontage. The Plan indicates that the proposed lighting does not extend into the adjacent residential area. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: The Planning and Zoning Commission met on Thursday, December 19, 2002 and voted 5 to 0 to recommend approval of this request. RECOMMENDATION: If the Council determines that this site plan is acceptable, the following motion is recommended: Approval of PZ 2002-30. CITY COUNCIL ACTION ITEM · · · 5.

APPROVED Zoning Administrator Dave Green summarized the two cases. The property is located near the intersection of Mid-Cities Boulevard and Smithfield Road and is just under 8.5 acres. The tract is currently unplatted and the applicant is requesting a preliminary plat and site plan approval for Center Point Church. The property is zoned C-1 Commercial which would permit this type of activity. The comments from Public Works indicate that all issues have been addressed by the plat. The church itself is a multi-phase project. The first phase is the primary worship located on the western two-thirds of the site from Abbott to the west and Smithfield to the east. There is a single-story church facility with adjacent parking facilities along the west towards Abbot. The proposed structure is larger than 10,000 square feet which requires particular architectural standards. The applicant's building elevations and architectural features meet City standards. Due to the request being a non-residential use, landscape setbacks are required along Abbott and Mid Cities. There is residential zoning within 200 ft. behind the site which requires approval of a site plan. The applicant has done a very good job of expanding the tree line along both frontages and along the rear line. The applicant has also met the requirement of a 6 ft. masonry wall along the back of the property. In addition, staff appreciated the applicant's use of berms interspersed with shrubbery along the frontage area to break up a monotonous look. Staff recommends approval of both the preliminary plat and the site plan. Chairman Bowen called for questions or comments from the Commission members. There were none and the Chairman called for a motion. Mr. Lewis, seconded by Mr. Nehring, motioned to approve PS 2002-42. The motioned carried unanimously (5-0). Regarding the site plan (PZ 2002-30), Chairman Bowen asked if the concrete panel fence would look like regular brick. Mr. Green responded that it is considered to be a Page 3 12/19/02 P & Z Minutes · · · thin masonry wall that has the look of brick. It is a panel that slides down in-between columns. It meets City standards. Mr. Schopper stated that there is old right-of-way in the area. He wondered if the fence would make old Watauga Road go away. Mr. Green explained that it splits. A portion will be on church property and a portion will be on the adjacent residential. Mr. Schopper, seconded by Mr. Lewis motioned to approve PZ 2002-30. The motion carried unanimously (5-0).

Ordinance No. 2682 Case Summary: Linda and Larry Kjeldgaard are requesting a rezoning of a 5.9 acre tract that fronts the 7300 block of Bursey Road. The property is currently zoned "AG" Agricultural. A single family residence is located near the Bursey Road frontage. The tract does have several horses and out-buildings. The Kjeldgarrds are proposing to sell the existing house and build a new house near the southern portion of the tract. This would require a platting of the tract into two lots (one for the existing and one for the new house). The Kjeldaards have submitted a preliminary plat for this purpose. The plat was approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission last year. The purpose of this request is to rezone the existing house and surrounding property to "R-1" Residential to validate the current use. The proposed "R-1-S" zoning is for the area immediately surrounding the site of the new residence. This zoning will permit the new house and the continued keeping of horses by the owner. Existing Land Uses: A single family residence is located on the site near the Bursey Road frontage. The site also contains several out-buildings used for the keeping of horses. Comprehensive Plan: The Comprehensive Plan promotes this area for low density residential uses. The existing and proposed use is consistent with the Plan. The keeping of livestock (horses) is consistent with other nearby "AG" agricultural-zoned properties to the west of this site. Plat StatuslThoroughfare Plan: A preliminary plat (ref. PS 2002-36 Kjeldgaard Addition) was approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission on August 8th of this year. The site fronts onto Bursey Road, a proposed four-lane, undivided collector of 68' ROW.

PZ 2002-38 PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A REQUEST BY LINDA AND LARRY KJELDGAARD FOR A ZONING CHANGE FROM "AG" AGRICULTURAL TO "R-1-S" SPECIAL SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL AND "R-1" RESIDENTIAL AT 7300 BURSEY ROAD (5.9 ACRES). APPROVED Zoning Administrator Dave Green summarized the case. When the applicant brought in the preliminary plat, staff recommended a zoning change prior to the submittal of a final plat. The preliminary plat took an existing house that faces Bursey Rd. and placed it on Lot 1, and the balance of the property became Lot 2. Both are zoned "AG" Agriculture. Staff recommended rezoning Lot 1 from "AG" to "R-1" Residential since the AG zoning leaves the lot in a non-conforming status. The applicant wants to build a single family residence on Lot 2, and keep horses and outbuildings. Staff recommends a zoning change for Lot 2 from" AG" to "R-1-S" in order to maintain livestock. Chairman Bowen asked if there were or are plans to extend Londonderry Drive. Mr. Green explained that the Fire Department gave permission for Londonderry to be a turnaround. Mr. Green stated that the applicant will maintain the private turnaround. Chairman Bowen opened the public hearing. No one wished to speak and the Chairman closed the public hearing. The Chairman called for comments from the Commission members. Mr. Schopper asked if access for Lot 2 would be off of Bursey. Mr. Green stated there is no proposed access off Bursey. Chairman Bowen asked for clarification on who would have access to the turnaround on Londonderry. Chairman Bowen stated that he is concerned that Londenderry Drive is a long stretch of road without a valid turnaround or cul-de-sac. Mr. Green stated that the turnaround is considered to be a private drive, but the design provides adequate pull-in and turning radius for the Fire Department trucks. Mr. Lewis, seconded by Mr. Schopper, motioned to approve PZ 2002-38. The motion carried unanimously (5-0). Page 9 12/19102 P & Z Minutes · 200' Buffer NRH PZ 2002-38 7300 Bursey Rd.

The Preliminary Plat and the Thoroughfare Plan revision were both approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission. The Thoroughfare Plan revision (ref. PZ 2002-37) is also on this agenda. Adjacent Zoning and Land Use: North: "U" / Birdville High School track & baseball fields East: "0-1" / Drainage detention area, UICI (Mega Life) office complex South: "C-2, "1-1" / Vacant (future location of City library), industrial-type out-buildings West: "TC","1-1 "/ Vacant (Home Town), industrial-type out-buildings PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: The Planning and Zoning Commission at their meeting on, November 14, 2002, recommended approval of PZ 2002-32 by a vote of 7-0.

PS 2002-39 CONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST FROM MIKE CLARK TO APPROVE THE PRELIMINARY PLAT OF LOTS 1 AND 2, BLOCK 1 UICI ADDITION LOCATED IN THE 8900 BLOCK OF CARDINAL LANE (19.78 ACRES). APPROVED Zoning Administrator Dave Green summarized the three requests. He stated that these cases are related and generated by a proposed future westward expansion of the UICllnsurance development located immediately to the east. The applicant's first request is to rezone the site from "I-L" Light Industrial and "AG" Agricultural to the "0-1" Office District. The second request is to revise the street system in this area of the proposed expansion by the elimination of two future streets. The third request was the approval of a preliminary plat of the site known as Lots 1, 2, 3, & 4, Block 1 UICI Addition. Mr. Green pointed out that the Public Works Department has requested a minor revision to the wording of a detention area on the plat, otherwise the proposed plat satisfies all staffs comments. Chairman Don Bowen opened the public hearing. Michael Clark, Winkleman & Associates, 6750 Hillcrest Plaza, #100, Dallas 75230 representing the landowners as well as a proposed purchaser B-3 Realty and UICI. Mr. Pat Fox from B-3 Realty and Mr. Makens were present. Mr. Clark commented as far as their zoning request it is the same as what Mr. Green stated. As far as the thoroughfare amendment is concerned, they have worked with staff on an agreement to eliminate the part of the roadway leg that goes to · the east property line and dead ends. This roadway is on the Thoroughfare Plan Page 11 11/14/02 P & Z Minutes · · · and is an encumbrance for UICI from a security stand point as It creates a no- mans land from the alignment with Walker Drive. As a solution, the applicant is proposing a covenant restriction on this roadway (designated roadway liB") that would run with the land. The covenant will stipulate that roadway "B" would not be deleted from the Thoroughfare Plan unless there was contiguous ownership of the two developments and a single lot development were proposed that included a cui de sac on road "A". This situation allows UICI and B-3 Realty to purchase the property with the knowledge that they can develop it like they want to and gives the city the hammer to have the roadway shown on the preliminary plat. The applicants are in agreement with Staffs comments on the preliminary plat and will make the change. Chairman restated that this is an open hearing and asked if there was anyone wishing to speak in favor or against the zoning request. Chairman Don Bowen closed the public hearing. Mr. Nehring, seconded by Mr. Schopper, motioned to approve PZ 2002-32. The motion carried unanimously (7-0). Mr. Tucker, seconded by Chairman Don Bowen motioned to approve PZ 2002-37. The motion carried unanimously (7-0). Mr. Tucker, seconded by Ms. Cole motioned to approve PZ 2002-39 to include engineer's comments. The motion carried unanimously (7-0). Chairman Don Bowen announced that the next two cases are connected. 9.

CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS Department: Planning & Inspections Department Council Meeting Date: 12/09/02 Subject: Public Hearing to Consider a Request by UICI Agenda Number: PZ 2002-37 Insurance Company for a revision to the Thoroughfare Plan in the vicinity of the 8900 block of Cardinal Lane. Ordinance No. 2678 Case Summary: As a result of a proposed zoning change by UICI on approximately 18 acres adjacent to the current office facilities, UICI is requesting abandonment of a portion of a proposed commercial street (Road "A"). Since the proposed zoning and platting request encompasses both sides of the proposed road "A", staff is in favor of removing this section of street from the Thoroughfare Plan (see attached map). UICI has also received preliminary plat approval from the Planning & Zoning Commission for the 18-acre parcel and is requesting a thoroughfare revision ordinance for future abandonment of a perimeter street. Staff has agreed in concept that if the major portion of this land is used in a campus type setting with a single user then the commercial street could be removed from the Thoroughfare Plan in the future. If UICl's new property is platted as a single lot as shown in exhibit "B" the proposed ordinance would obligate the City to remove proposed Road B from the thoroughfare plan. If UICI subdivides the lot in any other manner Road B would remain on the thoroughfare plan. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: The Planning and Zoning Commission at their meeting on, November 14, 2002, recommßnded approval of PZ 2002-37 by a vote of 7-0. RECOMMENDATION: If the Council determines that this Thoroughfare Plan revIsion is acceptable, the following motion is recommended: Approval of PZ 2002-37 and Ordinance No. 2678.

PS 2002-39 CONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST FROM MIKE CLARK TO APPROVE THE PRELIMINARY PLAT OF LOTS 1 AND 2, BLOCK 1 UICI ADDITION LOCATED IN THE 8900 BLOCK OF CARDINAL LANE (19.78 ACRES). APPROVED Zoning Administrator Dave Green summarized the three requests. He stated that these cases are related and generated by a proposed future westward expansion of the UICI Insurance development located immediately to the east. The applicant's first request is to rezone the site from "I-L" Light Industrial and "AG" Agricultural to the "0-1" Office District. The second request is to revise the street system in this area of the proposed expansion by the elimination of two future streets. The third request was the approval of a preliminary plat of the site known as Lots 1, 2, 3, & 4, Block 1 UICI Addition. Mr. Green pointed out that the Public Works Department has requested a minor revision to the wording of a detention area on the plat, otherwise the proposed plat satisfies all staffs comments. Chairman Don Bowen opened the public hearing. · Michael Clark, Winkleman & Associates, 6750 Hillcrest Plaza, #100, Dallas 75230 representing the landowners as well as a proposed purchaser B-3 Realty and UICI. Mr. Pat Fox from B-3 Realty and Mr. Makens were present. Mr. Clark commented as far as their zoning request it is the same as what Mr. Green stated. As far as the thoroughfare amendment is concerned, they have worked with staff on an agreement to eliminate the part of the roadway leg that goes to the east property line and dead ends. This roadway is on the Thoroughfare Plan Page 11 11/14102 P & Z Minutes :. · and is an encumbrance for UICI from a security stand point as It creates a no- mans land from the alignment with Walker Drive. As a solution, the applicant is proposing a covenant restriction on this roadway (designated roadway "B") that would run with the land. The covenant will stipulate that roadway "B" would not be deleted from the Thoroughfare Plan unless there was contiguous ownership of the two developments and a single lot development were proposed that included a cui de sac on road "A". This situation allows UICI and B-3 Realty to purchase the property with the knowledge that they can develop it like they want to and gives the city the hammer to have the roadway shown on the preliminary plat. The applicants are in agreement with Staff's comments on the preliminary plat and will make the change. Chairman restated that this is an open hearing and asked if there was anyone wishing to speak in favor or against the zoning request. Chairman Don Bowen closed the public hearing. Mr. Nehring, seconded by Mr. Schopper, motioned to approve PZ 2002-32. The motion carried unanimously (7-0). Mr. Tucker, seconded by Chairman Don Bowen motioned to approve PZ 2002-37. The motion carried unanimously (7-0). · Mr. Tucker, seconded by Ms. Cole motioned to approve PZ 2002-39 to include engineer's comments. The motion carried unanimously (7-0). Chairman Don Bowen announced that the next two cases are connected. 9.

REQUEST: As a result of a proposed zoning change by UICI on approximately 18 acres adjacent to the current office facilities, UICI is requesting abandonment of a portion of a commercial street. Since the proposed zoning and platting request encompasses both sides of the proposed street, staff is in favor of removing this section of street from the thoroughfare plan. UICI is also providing a preliminary plat for the 18 acre parcel and is requesting a developer covenant agreement for future abandonment of a perimeter street. Staff has agreed in concept that if the major portion of this land is used in a campus type setting with a single user then the commercial street could be removed from the thoroughfare plan in the future. A developers agreement or covenant is being drafted that would require City Council approval as part of this request. Please refer to the enclosed thoroughfare map. Staff will be prepared to discuss this issue at the meeting as part of the zoning and platting requests. PROPOSED USE: Expansion of the UICI Insurance development (Mega Life) located immediately to the east of this site. PLAT & THOROUGHFARE INFORMATION: In addition to the rezoning request, the applicant has also submitted a Preliminary Plat and a request to revise the Thoroughfare Plan in this vicinity (see attached map).

Ordinance No. 2681 Case Summary The applicant is requesting a Specific Use Permit in the "C-1" Commercial District for a QuickTrip Convenience Store and self-service gasoline station containing 24 gasoline pumps. The development would be located on 2.45 acres at the southwest corner of the intersection of Mid-Cities and Davis Boulevards. The applicant intends to sell beer from this location. The location does meet all distance regulations required for selling beer. The Zoning Ordinance defines any gasoline facility having less then 9 pumps as being a secondary or accessory use (in this case) to a convenience store. Any facility having 9 or more pumps is considered a service station with the convenience store becoming the secondary or accessory use. The proposed 24-pump facility, by definition, places this development in the category of a service station. The current zoning of the site ("C-1" Commercial) requires all service stations to have a Special Use permit (SUP) for operation. Comprehensive Plan: The Comprehensive Plan recommends retail uses for this intersection. The proposed use is considered an automobile-oriented use which the Comprehensive Plan says is best suited to a commercial area, not retail. The intersection of Mid-Cities and Davis Boulevards represents one of the last undeveloped commercial areas in North Richland Hills. As such, the character of any proposed development should be given careful consideration to make sure that it is consistent with the City's Plan for the area. Approval of the proposed use with its automotive-based character along with the existing Shell (former Texaco) station located on the opposite corner (northeast) of the intersection will set the tone in this area for automotive rather than retail uses. The applicant also owns the adjacent property immediately to the west and south of this site. Staff believes it is highly important that a site plan be included on this tract so that a more comprehensive, rather than piece-meal approach to development, be considered.

The applicant has submitted a preliminary plat that is currently being reviewed by staff. This preliminary plat will be ready for consideration by . the Planning and Zoning Commission at their upcoming January 16th meeting. Existing Use /Site Attributes: The site is vacant with only grass as vegetation. The site exhibits a gentle slope rising from the Davis I Mid-Cities Boulevard intersection upwards toward the southwest. Building Design and Materials: The proposed convenience store and gasoline pump canopy are oriented toward Davis Boulevard. The single-story, flat-roof design building is constructed of all masonry materials. The building has a public access doorway and parking on the rear of the building (facing Mid-Cities Boulevard). The proposed gasoline canopy is 191' long, 62' wide (11,842 square feet) and stands approximately 23' high covering a total of 24 gasoline pumps. The proposed canopy is a flat design with 4' fascia band around all four sides. Canopy support columns are masonry-clad per city requirements. Over the past three years the City Council has adopted a number of Ordinance revisions designed to "raise the bar" with regard to building aesthetics. One such revision was to require pitched-roof designs for residential carports. These characteristics have consistently been applied to commercial designs as well. Recent examples approved by the city include RaceTrack (Grapevine Highway), Murphy Oil (Wal-Mart), Glenview Quickmart (Mr. Ko) and the Rufe Snow Car Wash. The QuickTrip Corporation has built examples of convenience store I gasoline canopies with and without a pitch-roof design throughout the Metroplex. A pitched-roof design has been suggested to QuickTip representatives for this location should this case be approved, however, QuickTrip representatives have stated that they prefer the flat-roof design. One such example of a pitched-roof design is located on South lake Boulevard in South lake. Because the canopy's proposed size makes it a visually significant structure for this location and City Council has been consistent in requiring pitch roof canopies for gas stations, staff would recommend that a 4:12 pitch roof (such as noted in Southlake) be made a condition for approval of this SUP. Access and Parking: Parking spaces proposed by the site plan are consistent with city regulations. As noted earlier, the building will have a public entrance on the rear of the building from Mid-Cities Boulevard. Fifteen parking spaces have been provided at this entrance for customers. Access to the site as shown on the attached drawings includes two 35' full access points from Mid-Cities Boulevard, one 35' right-in, right-out access drive from Davis Boulevard and one 35' right-in, right-out access drive from Smithfield Road. The Mid-Cities and Smithfield Road access points are connected to the site via a 35' access easement. Staff has held several meetings with the applicant and their representatives to discuss among other design issues; traffic access and circulation. The applicant has submitted several Traffic Impact Analyses for staff to review. Attached is the executive summary of the final, revised Traffic impact Analysis (TIA) and comment letters from both the applicant and the Public Work's Department concerning access to and circulation around this site. CITY COUNCIL ACTION ITEM Page 2 of4 - _._..~.._,---_., CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS The applicant, following the Commission's denial of this request, submitted a revised access plan and TIA to staff. This revised plan is not attached to this report as it was not , part of the Commission's deliberation in their recommendation of denial. Landscaping and Screening: The proposed landscaping meets and in some respects exceeds Landscape Ordinance requirements. This includes 15' setbacks along Mid-Cities and Davis Boulevards with street trees, perimeter screening shrubs. Parking Lot Trees, perimeter shrubs, and the total amount of overall landscaping exceeds city requirements. Signage and Lighting: The site plan indicates two monument signs, one each for Mid-Cities and Davis Boulevards. Sign elevation details indicate that both signs are consistent with Sign Ordinance requirements. The proposed gasoline canopy contains QuickTrip logos on three of four sides. In addition, logos and signs are proposed on both the front and rear facades of the building. These signs are also consistent with the Sign Ordinance. The applicant has submitted a Photometric Plan for review. The plan shows very little "bleed-over" effect of lighting on adjacent properties or public streets. Planning and Zoning Commission Recommendation: The Planning and Zoning Commission at their meeting on December 19. 2002. recommended denial of PZ 2002-27 by a vote of 3-2. The applicant immediately submitted a letter requesting an appeal of this recommendation to the City Council. The following issues represent planning concerns with this request. . The intersection of Mid-Cities and Davis Boulevards represents not only one of the few remaining undeveloped areas in the community but its location is of strategic importance as well. Within one-half mile of this location are several significant existing and future developments such as; Home Town NRH, the Smithfield historical area, and the DART rail line and future rail station location. Davis Boulevard (FM 1938) is a major northlsouth thoroughfare connecting Loop 820 with adjacent communities in Northeast Tarrant County. Mid-Cities Boulevard is part of a continuous major thoroughfare stretching from 1-35 in Fort Worth to SH360 in Euless. Because of these factors, the character of development at this intersection is extremely important as it reflects an image of the community not only to it's citizens but to large numbers of passersby as well. . At the present time a convenience store with less than 9 fueling pumps would be permitted on this site without the requirement of a Special Use Permit (SUP). This is because the principal use (convenience store) is considered retail rather than an automobile-based use. The applicant's request represents a three-fold increase in the number of fueling pumps (24) that could be permitted thereby substantially changing the character and intensity of the development. The Comprehensive Plan does not support this level of intensity. CITY COUNCIL ACTION ITEM Page 30f4 , -,~...--,.-,,~...-........_'_"""--"- . . . CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS . The applicant owns 7.18 Acres at this intersection. The proposed QuickTrip development accounts for approximately 2.45 acres. The applicant has never· submitted a formal development plan for the remaining acreage. Approval of this request without considering or taking into account the impact of the proposed gasoline station on future access, circulation and intensity of land uses on adjacent properties is a piece-meal approach to development. . The large canopy represents a significant structure at this intersection both in terms of aesthetics and scale. The topography of this site rises from the intersection of Mid- Cities and Davis Boulevards back toward the southwest. In addition, this corner is elevated above the other corners of this intersection. Structures built on this southwest corner will tend to dominate or overshadow other development at this intersection. This is a significant factor when considering the scale of the proposed fueling canopy. RECOMMENDATION: To uphold the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission to deny this request based on the intensity of the proposed use and the lack of an over-all cohesive development plan for the entire 7.18 acre tract owned by the applicant. CITY COUNCIL ACTION ITEM Page 4of4 - '--.>------..-- . . . 10. PZ 2002-27 PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A REQUEST BY BOBBY KUBAN FOR A SPECIAL USE PERMIT (SUP) IN THE "C-1" COMMERCIAL DISTRICT FOR A GASOLINE ~ERVICE STATION IN THE 6300 BLOCK OF DAVIS BOULEVARD. DENIED Zoning Administrator Dave Green summarized the case. This site is located at the southwest corner of the intersection of Davis Boulevard and Mid-Cities. This will be a typical Quiktrip type of gasoline facility. How this site is treated, based on City ordinance, is that it will be defined as a convenience store with gasoline facilities covered by a canopy. City ordinance allows that a facility that services eight or less automobiles simultaneously is considered to be a convenience store with gas facilities as an accessory use. A facility with nine or more pumps that can serve nine or more automobiles at the same time is defined as a gasoline facility, therefore, under the definitions in City ordinance, this request is for a gasoline facility. In this particular situation there is a total of 24 pumps. The applicant has included a site plan, landscape plan and building elevations. The applicant has met, and in some cases exceeded, the City landscape requirements. The building is all masonry with a flat roof design canopy with brick along the support columns. The facility is oriented toward Davis Blvd. with an access point off of Davis Blvd. which currently is a right-in, right-out. Since Davis Blvd. is a State Highway, TXDOT must agree to allow the right-in, right-out to become a full access point onto Davis Blvd. There are full access points from two different locations on Mid-Cities Blvd., but there are no median breaks on Mid-Cities so these two locations function as eastbound-only access points. There is a right-in, right-out off of Smithfield Road. The entire site of approximately 7 -acres is owned by the applicant, but the applicant is only bringing forward plans for the corner of the site, which concerns staff. The character of the corner of this site will set the precedent for the remaining development of the site. The canopy of the proposed structure is large and will make a visual impact since this corner is raised higher than the other three corners. In addition, over the last few years, the City has been requiring gasoline canopies to have pitched roofs. Staff asks for the additional requirement of a pitched roof if this request is approved. An additional concern is the incompatibility with the Comprehensive Land Use Plan. The Comp Plan calls for retail use for this site. Automotive use is considered a commercial use which is more intense than retail. Since this is a stand-alone request, staff feels that it is too intense for this intersection. Chairman Bowen opened the public hearing. Page 10 12/19/02 P & Z Minutes · · · Chad Stanford, 8220 Pecan Ridge Dr., North Richland Hills, is the Real Estate Manager for Quiktrip Corporation. He pointed out engineers, consultants, and other attending members of the Quiktrip family in the audience. He thanked the Commission for tabling this project last month in order to allow Quiktrip to address some issues, particularly regarding traffic and the traffic impact analysis (TIA). Mr. Stanford explained that Quiktrip is one ofthe Forbes top 100 companies, which opened 44 years ago in Tulsa. Currently they have 400 stores nationally; 18 of which are in the metroplex area. Mr. Stanford feels they have a quality business and that their facility would raise the bar for development of this type in North Richland Hills. He stated that the property is zoned C 1 Commercial which allows a convenience store with eight fueling positions or less. Quiktrip is required to seek an SUP because they have more than eight fueling positions. Quiktrip is purchasing seven acres at this site, of which a little less than two acres will be the Quiktrip facility itself. The remainder will be developed in the future. Quiktrip is proposing a 5,000 sq. ft. masonry building with masonry columns under the gas canopy. He stated that this is not a typical Quiktrip store in that there is a rear entry to the store, much more landscaping than is typical, and architectural modifications to comply with the City standards for presentation on this prominent corner. Mr. Stanford reviewed, on the site plan, the access points pointed out by Mr. Green. He stated that they do not wish for median breaks and they have no intention of requesting median breaks in the future. The applicant's site plan shows a 50' right-of-way dedication on Mid-Cities and a 12' right-of-way dedication along Davis Blvd., in anticipation of future widening of those roads. In addition, at the recommendation of the TIA and City engineer's, Quiktrip is willing to install a thru-Iane on Mid-Cities. Mr. Stanford explained that Quiktrip's site plan does not show a connection to Newman because TXDOT has indicated that Quiktrip will be allowed a full access point on Davis if Newman is abandoned. If Newman is not abandoned, Quiktrip would like to come back in the future and tie into Newman Rd. To refute staffs comment that the use is too intense, Mr. Stanford showed the Commission members an architect's concept plan, which illustrated some ideas of how the remainder of the site could be developed around the Quiktrip so that the overall theme of the site is not automotive use. The rendering suggested a bank, restaurant and office complex. Mr. Stanford further stated that the TIA does not suggest that Quiktrip will adversely impact traffic at that corner. He suggested that the Quiktrip store could help with the traffic problem in that area since Quiktrip's business captures pass- by traffic as opposed to generating new trips from across town. Mr. Stanford also stated that it is not their experience in the DFW area that they will attract other auto uses close to their facility. He showed the Commission members examples of other Quiktrip stores and their surrounding businesses. Page 11 12/19102 P & Z Minutes _____w__·___ .--- -. - . . . Mr. Stanford stated that Quiktrip feels that they are the best in their industry. He mentioned that their landscaping is well in excess of the ordinance. He stated that they brought forward a flat canopy in order to match the historical look wanted in the neighboring historic Smithfield area, i.e., back in the 1900's the roof was a flat design. Quiktrip is willing to add ornamental light poles (similar to their store in Keller) to match the historical theme. Mr. Stanford showed a picture of the Southlake store. Chairman Bowen asked how many pumps are at their Southlake store? Mr. Stanford responded that there are 12 pumps (24 fueling positions). Mr. Stanford summarized Quiktrip's presentation with three points: 1) proper land use; 2) compatible architecture; and 3) driveway access on Davis. The Chairman called for comments or questions. Mr. Lewis commented that south of this site a convenience storelgas station was in operation for only two to three months. North of the site at the intersection of Precinct Line and Davis sits a closed convenience store facility. Mr. Lewis stated that he lives north of this site, but based on traffic patterns at this site, he would not be invited to use this facility because he would not be able to exit and continue north on Davis Blvd. Mr. Lewis pointed out that in Quiktrip literature sent to the Commission members there is a message from Quiktrip's Chairman that states that he will not hesitate to close a store that is not measuring up to Quiktrip's expectations. Considering the history of convenience stores in this general area, Mr. Lewis is concerned that the City will have a vacant facility in a short period of time. Mr. Stanford replied that small convenience stores with a small number of fuel pumps cannot survive in today's market. They cannot compete against Wal-Mart and Albertson's fuel centers. He believes that there is a need for a large, modern fueling facility along Davis Blvd. Mr. Schopper commented that he is more comfortable with Quiktrip owning 7-acres rather than just the 2-acre portion where the convenience store is proposed. He said the access along Mid-Cities is okay, but he is concerned with the access on Davis. He stated that it is not convenient access for people traveling north on Davis Blvd. Mr. Stanford responded that full access on Davis is very important. They hope that staff and TXDOT will allow abandonment of Newman Rd. and full access on Davis Blvd. Mr. Schopper asked if they could do the Newman access and eliminate the Davis curb cut? Mr. Stanford responded that they do not wish to do that. He repeated that they prefer full access off of Davis Blvd. Farman Shir, Civil Engineer, CEI, came forward. CEI prepared the traffic impact study for Quiktrip. He stated that the driveway locations meet the corner clearances for both streets. He supports the abandonment of Newman Road and full access on Davis because there is an expectation of a low volume of traffic making left turns in and out of Page 12 12/19102 P & Z Minutes . the Quiktrip driveway. The traffic impact study indicated that ten vehicles will turn left out of the facility at a.m. or p.m. peak hours. That translates into one car every five or six minutes making a left turn from the drive. Based on this volume, he stated that they do not see a public safety issue with a full access drive. Mr. Laubacher commented that he is torn. He stated that he believes Quiktrip is a wonderful organization and that most of their stations look nice. He said their explanation of the look of the Southlake store versus the one proposed here makes sense, however, besides being somewhat adjacent to the historical district area, this store is also very close to Home Town, which uses a great deal of Austin Stone. He hopes Quiktrip will keep that in mind. He believes the Quiktrip is too intense for this critical intersection that will set the tone for a lot of aspects of the City for the next 10-15 years. He would have preferred to see a full development of the 7 -acres rather than speculation. He would like to see a definite decision on Newman Rd. rather than just a presumption. He has great concern with the right-in, right-out. At Davis and North Tarrant Parkway, he sees people turning left out of the right-in, right-out at Wal-Mart. He sees people make U-turns because of the right-in, right-out. He isn't opposed to this project, but needs to feel better about certain aspects before he can support it. . Mr. Nehring commented that he likes Quiktrip facilities. He believes this use might be a little intense for this corner. He appreciates the effort Quiktrip has made to go beyond City regulations on this project, such as with landscaping. He has some traffic concerns, but if Newman is abandoned and straight access is given off of Davis, Mr. Nehring believes that drive will work out. He likes the South lake store and would like to see that type of unit built at this site. Mr. Schopper commented that he has traffic concerns. The abandonment of Newman depends on the property owner on the south side. He believes that if Newman is abandoned, Quiktrip should place the curb cut there, which would allow for a signal. He stated that he also likes the look of the Southlake store -- for the City of Southlake, not North Richland Hills. He would like to see a historical, period look for this site. A flat canopy would work better than a pitched canopy because the flat canopy would be less noticeable. He said the trees and berms are good and create good camouflage. . Mr. Stanford stated that if Newman is not abandoned, Quiktrip will tie-in at that point, but retain the existing right-in, right-out. Mr. Schopper and Mr. Stanford exchanged comments and ideas regarding traffic issues, abandonment of Newman, and Davis access which concluded with Mr. Jeff Thoene, Director of Real Estate, Quiktrip, coming to the podium to explain that if the drive is moved to Newman, eliminating the Davis Blvd. right-in, right-out it will kill this project. He stated that over the years Quiktrip has developed a business model that works in the industry. They know what to expect from their customers. He stated that if it isn't convenient for people to turn in they will pass Quiktrip and go to a store that is convenient. He said that Quiktrip knows that at peak periods, people going northbound or westbound will use the Texaco station rather than the Quiktrip because it will be more convenient for them to use the Texaco at peak periods. However, people going east on Mid-Cities and south on Davis will use this Page 13 12/19102 P & Z Minutes _ n_ _..______.""'~._ . . . Quiktrip. He also mentioned that when Quiktrip puts the thru-Iane in and dedicates the right-of-way, this intersection's traffic flow will be improved, at Quiktrip's expense, saving the City a large amount of money. Mr. Thoene referred to Mr. Lewis's concerns regarding the possibility of Quiktrip closing this store location in the future. He stated that the Phoenix and Dallas divisions are three years old and have had no store closings. The next newest divisions, Atlanta and St. Louis, which are 15-year old divisions, have had four store closings - three in Atlanta and one in St. Louis. Mr. Schopper asked if there are any Quiktrip stores in historical areas. Mr. Thoene stated that there are two - the Keller store and one in Kansas City. The Kansas City store is similar to the look of the Southlake store. It has darker brick and a flat canopy. It does not have ornamental lights. The Keller store is as close a match to this proposed location -- modern to match Home Town yet historical to match Smithfield. Chairman Bowen asked how many curb cuts would be allowable for the entire site. Mr. Barton, Public Works, said the ordinance reads 500' between driveways and major arterials. Chairman Bowen asked if there is 500' between the two curb cuts on Mid-Cities. Mr. Barton responded yes. Chairman Bowen asked if the curb cuts serve the remainder of the property. Mr. Barton responded that the proposed 24' access easement could serve both lots, but the full access on Davis as currently proposed by Quiktrip would serve only the Quiktrip, not the remainder of the property. Mr. Thoene restated that they will have full access if Newman is abandoned. TXDOT has already given Quiktrip a letter that they will support full access if Newman is abandoned. The landowner to the south has, in the past, expressed support for the abandonment of Newman. Quiktrip plans to meet with that property owner soon. If it doesn't happen, Quiktrip will come back and connect to Newman, and have a right-in, right-out on Davis, and a left-in from Davis. Mr. Thoene and the Commission members discussed the concept plan and other possibilities of curb cuts based on the concept plan. Mr. Schopper inquired as to the height of the landscaped trees. Mr. Thoene stated that they will be to City standards - 3" caliper. John Pitstick stated that 3" caliper is about 7'-8' tall. Jonathon Vinson, who does land use and zoning law work for Quiktrip, summarized how, in his opinion, this use is much more retail in character, rather than automotive. Chairman Bowen asked if there was anyone else wishing to speak. There were none and he closed the public hearing. Page 14 12/19102 P & Z Minutes · · · Mr. Schopper, seconded by Mr. Nehring motioned to approve PZ 2002-27 with stipulations that historical architecture is used and the trees along the roadways are 12' minimum in height Mr. Laubacher commented that he would have to vote no because planning is the P&Z Commission members job and on this project there are too many unknowns. Mr. Lewis stated that this is not the use he would like to see at this intersection. He would like to see multi-tenant retail use so the project has the ability to withstand the economy as tenants come and go. The Chairman stated that he believes Mr. Schopper's motion is headed in the right direction, but the Chairman would like to see the entire area under plan. The Chairman called for the vote and the motion was defeated (2-3) with Chairman Bowen, Mr. Lewis, and Mr. Laubacher voting against the motion. Mr. Lewis, seconded by Mr. Laubacher, motioned to deny PZ 2002-27. The motion carried (3-2) with Mr. Schopper and Mr. Nehring voting against the motion. Chairman Bowen instructed the applicant that they have the right to appeal, within ten days, to the City Council.

The site is just east of Smithfield Road. The commercial site is proposed to consist of a convenience store with gas pumps as indicated on the project site plan (a reduced copy of the revised updated site plan is included in this letter for reference). EXECUTIVE SUMMARY FOR THIRD ADDENDUM This Third Addendum addresses the projected traffic conditions in the vicinity of the site proposed to be developed as reflected on the revised attached site plan dated December 2002. The changes on the revised site plan include the following: o The elimination of the access drive intersecting Newman Drive o The access drive intersecting Davis Boulevard is proposed to be constructed as a right- inlright-out only access drive o The access drive intersecting Smithfield Road is proposed to be constructed as a right- inlright-out only access drive. All of other access drives and site plan layout are as studied in the original traffic study dated -October 2, 2002. Current average daily traffic count volumes in the vicinity of the development were provided by the City of North Richland Hills. .--. ---.--. Mr. John Lovell December 12,2002 Page 2 , '<£,;';$;.'/, , ~~..,,-.:'~ .'.0.'........... .'.' Other traffic count data collected as a part ofthis study includes AM and PM peak hour vehicle turning movement counts at the following intersections: · Mid-Cities Boulevard and Davis Boulevard* · Mid-Cities Boulevard and Smithfield Road* · Davis Boulevard and Newman Drive. *Counts provided by the City of North Richland Hills made in 200 I by others. Projected traffic volumes for the proposed development were calculated. These projected site generated trips were added to the existing traffic volumes, which resulted in total projected traffic volumes at development of the Quick Trip convenience store and gas station. Existing conditions at the aforementioned intersections were analyzed and compared to projected traffic conditions and projected traffic conditions at these same intersections, as well as the access drives proposed to serve the site. Additional analysis has been done to include a five-year growth factor at a rate of 3 percent per year for the existing traffic volumes and combined with the projected site generated volumes. Results of the analysis have indicated: o No reductions in Level of Service (LOS) are projected to occur as a result of the revised site plan dated December 2002, compared to the original traffic study dated October 2, 2002 for projected traffic conditions as well as projected traffic conditions with the five year growth factor applied, except the eastbound right-turn movement on the access drive intersecting Davis Boulevard during the PM peak hour. This movement is projected to operate at an improved acceptable LOS in the AM peak hour, but is projected to operate at LOS "E" in the PM peak hour during the projected traffic conditions and LOS "F" for the projected traffic conditions with the five year growth factor applied. The reduced LOS during the PM peak hour is attributed to the high traffic volume on Davis Boulevard that causes delay to the few vehicles turning right fÌ"om the access drive. o Although the revised site plan depicts the access drive intersecting Davis Boulevard serving right-in/right-out movements only, previous analysis indicates that satisfactory operation of this driveway is projected with all vehicle turning movements allowed. Recommendations of this Addendum are summarized as follows: o It is recommended that the driveways be constructed as shown on the revised site plan dated December, 2002 or, if Newman Drive is abandoned, the access drive intersecting Davis Boulevard be constructed to serve all vehicle turning movements as described in the recommendation of Texas Department of Transportation letter dated December 6, 2002. o It is recommended that the existing northbound right-turn movement on Davis Boulevard at Mid-Cities Boulevard be converted fÌ"om a permissive movement to a permissive plus overlap with eastbound and westbound left-turn movements. o It is recommended that the existing eastbound right-turn lane on Mid-Cities Boulevard at Davis Boulevard be converted fÌ"om a right-turn only lane to a thru/right turn lane.

This letter states that the right-inlright-out driveway onto Davis Boulevard from the site is acceptable as shown on the site plan. The letter also states that a full access driveway to the site from Davis Boulevard is acceptable only if Newman Drive is "no longer a dedicated street." To vacate Newman Drive, the Developer must obtain permission from all property owners adjacent to Newman Drive and submit street vacation documents to Public Works for approval. The vacation must then be approved by the City Council. SITE PLAN: ~ Revise the configuration of the right-in/right-out driveways. See the attached. ~ Remove the note stating that the right-in/right-out driveway at Davis Boulevard is "... subject to change based on TxDOT approval".

EXHIBIT I \~ A /I CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS eepartment: Administration Council Meeting Date: 1/13/2003 Subject: ApprovinQ 2003 State LeQislative ProQram Agenda Number: GN 2003-003 Attached is the proposed State Legislative Program for the 2003 session of the State Legislature. Staff has put each of the issues into a specific category based on the four guiding principles used to determine positions on each issue. These four guiding principles are: 1. We will vigorously oppose any legislation that erodes the authority to govern our own local affairs. 2. Cities represent the level of government closest to the people. We bear primary responsibility for the provision of capital infrastructure and for ensuring our citizens' health and safety. Thus, we must be assured of a predictable and sufficient level of revenue and must resist efforts to diminish those revenues. 3. We will oppose the imposition of any state mandates, which do not provide for a commensurate level of compensation. 4. We will support any legislation that increases the quality of life for our citizens. This includes legislation that will not only provide an equitable amount of revenue for our city, but also provide equitable services that will encourage pride and growth in our community. This program is intended to be a guide to our legislators to inform them of the City's position on issues we expect will be raised during the session. The document will be modified and issues will be changed as needed throughout the session. We expect the workload of the 78th Texas Legislature to be the same if not more than last session in which more than 5,700 bills were introduced, 1,200 of which would have had a significant impact on cities. In the end, when the 7yth Legislative session adjourned in June 2001, 1,600 bills had been passed, 150 of them impacted cities. As of January 6th, 465 House Bills and Senate Bills have been pre-filed for consideration in the upcoming legislative session. Staff is monitoring City related bills and issues, and will provide regular updates throughout the session. We will also keep you informed regarding any legislative alerts or contacts that need to be made throughout the session. Source of Funds: Bonds (GO/Rev.)

Recommendation Approve the North Richland Hills 2003 State Legislative program CITY COUNCIL ACTION ITEM P~nø ? nf ? NRH e City of North Rich/and Hills 2003 State Legislative Positions e 'anuary 2003 e INTRODUCTION Throughout the history of Texas, our legislators have created laws and policies that greatly effect the administrative and political decisions of the municipalities within the state. As the next Texas State legislative session begin, the City officials of North Richland Hills would like to state our position on some of the issues we expect our state legislators to face in the 78th Legislative Session. This paper is intended to provide our positions as well as a small portion of background and reasoning for such positions. The City of North Richland Hills uses four primary principles in rendering its opinions on legislative issues. These are: 1. We will vigorously oppose any legislation that erodes the authority to govern our own local affairs. e Cities represent the level of government closest to the people. We bear primary responsibility for the provision of capital infrastructure and for ensuring our citizens' health and safety. Thus, we must be assured of a predictable and sufficient level of revenue and must resist efforts to diminish those revenues. 2. 3. We will oppose the imposition of any state mandates, which do not provide for a commensurate level of compensation. 4. We will support any legislation that increases the quality of life for our citizens. This includes legislation that will not only provide an equitable amount of revenue for our city, but also provide equitable services that will encourage pride and growth in our community. Other issues will arise as the legislative session progresses. If an issue arises that is not included herein, we urge the legislature to keep our guiding principles in mind as they make important decisions concerning our future. e January 13, 2003 2 Principle One: Local Control ..

January 13, 2003 8 ( CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS '" _epartment: Administration Council Meeting Date: 01/13/03 Subject: Resolution UrQinq State LeQislators to Provide Full Agenda Number: GN 2003-004 Funding for the Texas Emission Reduction Plan (TERP) Or Senate Bill 5 Enacted During the 7yth Legislative Session - Resolution No. 2003-02 The attached resolution deals with air quality issues which are of extreme importance to North Richland Hills, North Texas, and the entire State of Texas. The purpose of the resolution is to urge our state legislators to provide full funding for the Texas Emission Reduction Plan (TERP) or Senate Bill 5 which was enacted during the last legislative session. TERP provides incentives for owners and operators of heavy construction equipment to replace or retrofit this equipment with new technology that will drastically cut polluting emissions. The resolution also requests modifications to TERP that will make it easier and more conducive for people to participate in the program. Other provisions call for more scientific research to be done on the air quality problem so that its cause can be better defined and so the most effective and cost efficient methods for remedying the problem can be determined. Funding TERP is important because the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has notified the State of Texas that failure to fully fund the TERP will most likely result in the Dallas/Fort Worth area State Implementation Plan (SIP) for air quality mitigation not being approved. If the SIP is not approved, the EPA will begin the sanctions clock, which will threaten economic evelopment as well as the flow of federal transportation funds to this region because we are currently in nonattainment status of the federal ozone standard. If this resolution is approved, staff will forward it to our State Legislators so they are aware of the City's position on this issue. Recommendation Approve Resolution No. 2003-02 Urging Legislators to fully fund the Texas Emission Reduction Plan (TERP) or Senate Bill 5 Enacted During the 7yth Legislative Session.

Section 2. Section 3. Section 4. THAT the 78th Texas Legislature is hereby urged to adopt the following initiatives, in priority order, to preserve Texas air quality, enhance public health, and promote economic prosperity: First and foremost, provide full funding for the next biennium for the Texas Emissions Reduction Plan to make up for the shortfall in the anticipated funding from last session; Maintain the integrity of the Texas Emissions Reduction Plan (TERP) by ensuring that clean up legislation improves the effectiveness of the TERP programs by accepting the recommendations included in the Texas Commission Environmental quality's TERP Report to the Legislature and authorize the following provisions: · Enable gasoline, propane, and natural gas engines to participate in the Emissions Reduction Incentive Grant program · Include a simplified rebate program for low cost emissions control technologies in the TERP programs · Enable stationary engines to participate in the Emissions Reduction Incentive Grant program · Remove the funding floor in the Light Duty Purchase and Lease Incentive program · Establish one primary and four satellite regional emission testing centers for heavy-duty vehicles and machines. Support state funding for research and air planning activities: . Approve the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality's Legislative Appropriations Request for the 2003-2004 biennium, for 1) ozone modeling research in the state's non-attainment areas; and 2) air quality planning activities in the state's near non- attainment areas, including those activities necessary to support voluntary SIP submittals, ozone flex programs and early action compacts. 2 e . Approve legislative appropriations to the Houston-Galveston- Brazoria and Dallas/Fort Worth Quality Research Initiative to carry out air quality research in support of the mid-course review with regard to those region's SIPs and to support the development of early attainment plans in these regions for the new ozone and particulate standards. Section 5. Affect a change in building codes relative to roofing standards in urban areas in order to improve the state's "urban heat islands." Section 6. Support an investigation of and, if merited, development of a pilot "pay as you save" program to encourage implementation of permanent energy efficiency improvements. Section 7. In light of existing emission reduction gaps and the advent of the new federal 8-hour and five particulate standards, consider other measures as they are developed that have emission reduction potential. Some may include increased energy efficiency programs, fuel cell programs and clean fleet and engine improvements. AND IT IS SO RESOLVED. e PASSED AND APPROVED on the day of , 2003.

After careful analysis, they determined that 22 streets, two drainage projects and five facility projects needed immediate attention as they will need repair over the next five years. The total cost for the projects will be $38,210,000. Street improvements alone will be $30,010,000. The committee also evaluated the City's capacity to finance the proposed projects. City staff performed an analysis assuming that the tax rate would remain at $.57. With a combination of debt retirement on existing debt, moderate growth in the property tax base, and new construction, the analysis indicated that the proposed projects of $38.2 million could be financed without increasing the tax rate. It is proposed that the City Council support the Bond Referendum of $38,210,000 being e placed before the citizens on February 1, 2003.
