The previous report mentionedthaHheTexas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) was having a public meeting in Arlington on October 16th from 3:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. to receive input to help them in updating the existing "Texas Transportation Plan" (TIP). We have received some suggestions of additional subjects to be covered in the presentation at the public meeting. We have contacted the local District 2 office forTxDOT and have been informed the public meeting format will be informal. The meeting roomwiflbeset up with informative displays and a question and comment table. The comments and suggestions can be given one-on-one orally or in writing. Attached is a draft presentation which incorporates the four regional roadways listed on the previous report along with other suggestions made. If the Council has further concerns which are applicable to an overall State Transportation Plan, please notify us as soon as possible sothoseconcems can be incorporated in the final presentation. Attached are the proposed comments for the City of North Richland Hills to present at "- the public meeting on October 16, 2000. Respectfully submitted, \....... ISSUED BY THE CITY MANAGER NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS Public Works Department October 4,2000 Texas Transportation Plan Public Meeting Presentation Monday, October 16, 2000, 3:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. The City of North Richland Hills is very appreciative of the Texas Department of Transportation having these public meetings to accept input from the public throughout the state. Being the third largest city in Tarrant County and having five highways dissecting us, gives us a definite appreciation for a good transportation network. We feel several of our local issues are critical to northeast Tarrant County traffic flow and therefore critical to the metroplex and the State. The following list spells out those issues. 1. Interstate Hiahway 820 from State Highway 26 (Grapevine Highway) west to Interstate Highway 35W We are concerned about the adequate funding of this project and would suggest it needs to be expedited in order to relieve the congestion that occurs daily on this heavily used highway. 2. State Hiahway 26 from Interstate Highway 820 north to State Highway 114 and 3. State Hiahway 26 from Interstate Highway 820 south to State Highway 10 The sooner construction funds can be found for both sections of roadways, the quicker the capacity of these roads could increase and provide some alternatives for traffic flow during peak use periods. 4. North Tarrant Parkway from FM 3029 west across U.S. Highway 377 This is a regional roadway for Tarrant County. Additional funding is desperately needed for these type of regional roadways which are not a designated State highway. They definitely provide alternative routes from traffic flow other than across State and Federal highways. 5. Cotton belt Rail System As you are aware, the metroplex is growing rapidly. The highways are not the only transportation system which needs to be improved. The Regional Mobility 2020 Rail System Plan for the metroplex has many pieces. The Cotton belt Public Meeting - Texas Transportation Plan Page 1 of 2 Commuter Rail would definitely provide an alternative mode of transportation for the rapidly growing northeast Tarrant County area and relieve some vehicle pressure off the local highways. 6. TEX-21 Statewide Transportation Coalition recommendations We are wholeheartedly in favor of the many statewide projects being recommended by this coalition, as well as the recommended funding sources. We would hope the Texas Transportation Plan revisions would incorporate these projects vital to the State's future mobility. We also want to stress that any transportation plan should incorporate safety as part of its goals. We feel some highway speed limits may need to be reduced which could possibly help the ozone problem in the densely populated areas of the State. Along with the safety issues, signal maintenance is critical in keeping regional traffic moving in a safe manner. We feel the maintenance responsibility for these highway signals should remain with the State so it could be more uniform and timely. This should be addressed in funding for existing and as well as new or expanded highways. Last, we in North Richland Hills as well as northeast Tarrant County are eager to move forward with improving the local transportation system. Any improvements which could be made in the design, right-of-way acquisition, and construction processes to reduce the time frame from start to finish without sacrificing safety will be critical for any Transportation Plan's success. Again, the Council and myself want to commend you for your willingness to listen to our comments and suggestions. Public Meeting - Texas Transportation Plan Page 2 of 2 INFORMAL REPORT TO MAYOR AN D CITY COUNCIL N IR 00-127 o. \"--... Á Date: October 9, 2000 t/\j"" Subject: Revision of Road Hump Policy The existing "road hump policy" was adopted by Council in Ordinance No. 1921 (GN 94-29, 3/28/94). It was revised by Ordinance Nos. 2000 and 2027 later that year to make some minor modifications (GN 94-98, 8/8/94 and GN 94..149, 11/28/94). The basic ordinance was copied from the City of Dallas and presented to Council on July 26, 1993 as an Informal Report. Upon Council's request it was presented to Council as an action item on August 9,t993. Council postponed action and requested staff install test road humps on Emerald Hills Way and Meandering Drive. The "after study" on Emerald Hills Way and Meandering Drive showed the road humps had reduced the average speed and traffic count on these roadways. Subsequently, on March 28, 1994, Council passed the "Road Hump Ordinance". The policy was adopted during a time when the citizens on several of the City's residential streets were becoming concerned about speeding and use of their streets as shortcuts around school zones. The policy restricts the road humps to residenìÍal streets to keep from impeding emergency response on collectors and arterial streets as well as possibly damaging emergency response equipment. The request and cost are the adjacent property owners' responsibility. Road humps are only installed on streets "'-- which meet the traffic volume criteria of at least 500 vehicles per day and the speed criteria of 35 mph or greater. Since the passage of the ordinance in 1994, 22 street sections have received road humps. Road humps on Cummings and Turner Drive, just off Blaney Avenue were installed on April 27,2000 and January 13, 2000, respectively. Councilwoman Johnson has recently become concerned as to the use of the road humps. She feels the humps are too drastic and cannot be traversed by large vehicles at 20 mph, which is the recommended speed limit for road humps. Councilwoman Johnson has asked staff to bring this forward to Council for possible revision to the policy. Respectively submitted, GWD/smm .,,- ISSUED BY THE CITY MANAGER NORTH RICH LAND HilLS, TEXAS INFORMAL REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL No. IR 00-128 '--- * Date: October 4, 2000 Subject: Consideration for limiting hours for distribution of written announcements on private property Councilman Tolbert asked staff to look at the possibility of limiting the hours of distribution of handbills and advertisements on private property. There have been recent complaints of citizens being startled by persons placing door hanger advertisements at 4:30 a.m at private residences. Most cities do not have specific ordinances that restrict placement of handbills on private property. However, a simple change in our current Public Nuisances Ordinance would allow the City to enforce when distribution of handbills could be made on private property. Currently Section 3(q) of the Public Nuisances Ordinance restricts the distribution of any advertisements, circulars, handbills, printed or written announcements upon any public right-of-way, building or grounds. If City Council wishes to consider a change limiting hours of distribution on private property staff would recommend adding as a public nuisance no distribution of written announcements on private property between the hours of 8 p.m. and 7 a.m. ',,--, A draft ordinance is provided for your information. The Public Nuisances Ordinance is enforceable by the Police Chief, Code Enforcement Officer or Health Officer or their designated representatives. The Police Department, Health Department and Code Enforcement Office have been notified of this proposed ordinance revision. Staff requests Council direction whether to pursue this ordinance revision.

ATTEST: Charles Scoma, Mayor City Secretary City of North Richland Hills, Texas APPROVED AS TO CONTENT Development Director APPROVED AS TO FORM AND LEGALITY: Attorney for the City Ordinance No. xxxx Page 2 À " INFORMAL REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL No. _'R 00-130_ ~ Date: T Subject: October 9,2000 North Tarrant Parkway, Phase I You previously received an Informal Report, IR 00-118, dated September 25, 2000 concerning collection of street escrow on North Tarrant Parkway. It explained why we had not collected escrow in the past and recommended escrow collection in the future. No comments have been received against this recommendation. If Council agrees with this change in policy, we will write the adjacent property owners and inform them of the Council's position. Staff recently met with Glen Whitley, Precinct 3 County Commissioner, concerning the importance of improving North Tarrant Parkway through North Richland Hills and across north Tarrant County to IH 35W. The Commissioner stated he is committed to helping with construction and pursuing State and Federal funds for this regional roadway. He stated his willingness to provide labor and equipment for excavation, stabilization of subgrade, and asphalt paving. He also stated he would be investigating his precinct's ability to start a "concrete paving" crew. He stated he did not feel he would be ready to dedicate his crews any sooner than late next summer. The section of North Tarrant Parkway in our City with the greatest need of improvement is from Precinct Line Road to a point 600 feet west of the Davis Boulevard intersection. Attached is a timeline for proceeding with the engineering on this section of roadway. The timeline does not include any extra time for dealing with State and Federal grant contracts, environmental studies, and extensive reviews which accompany any grant funds. It would appear the soonest we could be ready to begin construction and relocation of existing utilities would be approximately September, 2001 if we started immediately. Major improvement projects for the two intersections at Davis Boulevard and Precinct Line Road were submitted in the 1999 first call for TEA-21 funding. In the final ranking, the first 62 projects were in the funding. These two projects ranked 162 and 172, respectively. If the City pursues grant funds in the 2002 second call for TEA-21 and is found to be in the funding, it would be 5 to 7 years before construction could begin. The estimated cost for Phase I is $5,819,000. This is for a 6-lane divided roadway with concrete pavement and a landscaped median. It includes major improvements to the Precinct Line Road and Davis Boulevard intersections. Additional items included in the estimate are irrigation, trail, pavers, berms, benches, trash receptacles, trees, shrubs, street lighting, and engineering costs ($690,000). If grant funding is not pursued and we utilize the County for a portion of the construction, some cost reduction could be realized. Depending on whether the landscaping and trail are included in the initial construction on Phase I, additional reduction in the estimated cost could be made. ISSUED BY THE CITY MANAGER NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS '" '- Staff would like to discuss with Council the possible funding sources and initiation of the engineering process for Phase I and confirm your agreement to collect street escrow from any adjacent property platted or replatted on North Tarrant Parkway in the future.

This CIP project consisted of reconstructing Slaney Avenue with a new concrete street and sidewalks on both sides of the street. The project began at Holiday Lane and ended at Grapevine Highway (SH 26). The project was awarded by Council on January 25, 1999, PW99-02 for $680,982.26 to Walt Williams Construction, Inc. Final payment will make the contractor's total earnings on the project $659,709.64, which is $21,272.62 under the contract amount. The project savings are associated with unused paving, storm drainage and utility items. The contractor substantially completed this project before the contract completion date of November 19, 1999. The delay in processing this final payment was caused by the contractor not submitting the final invoice until September 2000. Public Works staff requested the final invoice several times over the past eight months and just received it last month.

Background NET Church is seeking approval of a site plan for the future development of the property into a church facility. This 5.6 acre lot is located at 8203 Starnes directly to the West of the Winn-Dixie and East of a residential subdivision. NET Church has negotiated a shared access easement with Winn-Dixie to the East. This shared entry will require re-Iocation of the existing entry. Staff has encouraged this entry to eliminate the number of curb cuts on Starnes. This configuration will also allow several trees to remain undisturbed on the site and provide natural screening for residential property owners to the West. Additionally, this configuration is preferable to the Church. It is important to note that the site plan as submitted would only be for the construction of Phase I, which includes construction of the smaller structure shown on the plans (gym and classrooms). Phase II includes the actual church sanctuary building. For Phase I, adequate parking (39 spaces) has been provided. However, this number will have to be increased with the development of Phase II and an additional site plan review will be required before Phase II could be developed. "- The site plan as presented meets the city Landscape and Sign regulations and has been reviewed for conformance with applicable zoning regulations. Additionally, this Site Plan is in conformance with the current Comprehensive Land Use Plan and Thoroughfare Plan. RECOMMENDATION: The Planning and Zoning Commission met on Thursday, September 14, 2000 and recommended approval of PZ 2000-39 by a vote of 4-0 with stipulations that the light pole be removed on the northwest comer of the lot. The revised site plan is corrected based on P&Z recommendations. If the Council determines that this site plan is acceptable, the following motion is recommended: Approval of PZ 2000-39 for the Site Plan requested by NET Church located at 8203 Starnes.

APPROVED Mr. Jim Langford, Architect, came forward and addressed the Commission concerning the request. Mr. Langford explained that the NET Church was seeking approval of the Site Plan for development of the Lot into a Church facility in the near future. Mr. Langford explained that two site plans have been submitted for consideration. He explained that the preferred plan is to have a shared entry with Winn-Dixie to the East. Mr. Langford stated that they were in negotiations with Winn-Dixie to obtain an easement to be able to share the drive but they had not received a full commitment. Mr. Langford stated that the reason for the two site plans rather than one was so that the process would continue while the easement was being obtained. If the easement is not obtained then the single entry would then be pursued. Mr. Langford explained that originally, the plan was to have a single access off of Starnes on the West side of the lot. This plan called for the removal of trees and additional paving. Although this would be allowed, the preferred site plan was developed and both plans were being presented. Both site plans meet city requirements and Mr. Langford was seeking approval of both to go forward to Council. It was discussed that before the item is presented to Council that the easement and shared access be approved by Winn-Dixie. There was discussion about a light pole on the site plan. John Burnside, Pastor of the NET Church came forward and addressed the Commission and asked for their consideration. After discussion, the Chair entertained a motion. Mr. Davis moved to approve the site plan (s) with the stipulation that the site plan with the West entry have a light pole height not to exceed 15 feet; and the site plan with the East entry to remove the light standard indicated in the Northwest rear yard. Mr. Nehring seconded. The motion passed unanimously (4-0). Page 6 9/14/00 P & Z Minutes '" CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS r "-...

Mr. Steve Walker of QuikTrip also responded to questions regarding peak hour traffic for a typical QuikTrip store. The public hearing was continued with 5 area residents speaking in opposition to the proposed QuikTrip. Mr. Dave Conti of 5621 Galway had concerns over too many convenience stores in the area. He also had drainage and environmental concerns. Mr. Gary Trazenski of 7825 Emerald Hills spoke in opposition with concerns over conflicts with the existing bicycle trail. Ms. Cristina Lopez of 7817 Emerald Hills spoke in opposition with concerns over QuikTrip being too close to residential, glaring lights and general concerns over the proposed detention pond. Arlena Reaves of 7805 Emerald Hills spoke in opposition with several concerns primarily relating to too many convenience stores in the area. Hewitt Smith also spoke in opposition as the owner of the Redgate Apartments directly west of the proposed convenience store. He had concerns over the ability to rent apartment units with the proposed convenience store. Brenda McDonald representing QuikTrip responded to concerns. She stated that QuikTrip would be willing to relocate the bike path, the lights would be shielded from the surrounding neighborhood, but QuikTrip would have to have two entrances to the site. After discussion, the Chair entertained a motion. Mr. Davis moved to table the zoning request to Thursday, October 12, 2000. Mr. Laubacher seconded. The motion passed (4-1). Don Bowen voting against the motion. It was a general consensus that QuikTrip bring back a site plan fully addressing and clarifying signs, landscaping, masonry calculations, staff review of the traffic impact analysis, the need for 2 entryways, grading and elevations change, lighting and relocating the bicycle trail.

PZ 2000-20 - APPEAL PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER THE REQUEST OF WINKELMANN & ASSOCIATES FOR A ZONING CHANGE ON 17.681 ACRES FROM R1 SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL AND C1 COMMERCIAL TO PD PLANNED DEVELOPMENT FOR HOME DEPOT, A HOME IMPROVEMENT CENTER WITH OUTDOOR SALES, RENTAL AND DISPLAY (PROPERTY LOCATED AT THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF PRECINCT LINE ROAD AND MID-CITIES BOULEVARD IN THE 6400 BLOCK OF PRECINCT LINE ROAD) - ORDINANCE NO. 2483 APPROVED Mr. Mike Clark, applicant, advised Council that the site being presented tonight has been modified from what was originally presented at the Planning and Zoning Public Hearing held on April 27,2000. The following items were modified from the original request: · Relocating an 8 foot masonry wall closer to the building · Providing an 80 to 100 foot landscaped buffer channel to the north and west sides of the building · Significant increases in trees and landscaping in buffer areas · Changing the exterior façade to a rock or stone finish · Addressing the traffic issues as outlined by the City's traffic consultant · Will provide a sewer line along the west property line (allowing property owners to tie into if they wish) · Restrict hours of operation to 6:00 am - 10:00 pm · Deletion of proposed outdoor storage areas along the garden center (fronting Mid Cities Boulevard) · Area defined specifically for outdoor sales and display to be - >- Directly in front of the Home Depot building (not to be within the vestibule or paved area in front of building and not to be located in the fire lane or parking lot) the paved area will be shown on the final site plan. · Restricted access to Precinct Line Road to a single driveway and eliminate future out parcels to no additional driveways (per homeowner comments) · Provide a signal at Mid Cities Boulevard median (Home Depot's expense) Mr. Clark introduced the following representatives from Home Depot: Heather Pratt, Community Affairs Manager, Troy Rice, Vice President of Operations, Robby Rockwell, District Manager, Chris Freeman, Store Manager and Barbara Leftwich, Traffic Consultant Mr. John Pitstick, Director of Planning, advised Council there were changes to the original site plan since the request went before the Planning & Zoning Commission. He also advised Council that the City received a formal petition against the site plan for Home Depot that was presented at the Planning and Zoning Commission Public Hearing held on April 27,2000. Approximately 125 property owners signed the petition opposing Home Depot, but only 14.9% of the area within 200 feet of proposed zoning change. Since 20% was not obtained the action by Council will not require a super majority vote (three fourths). Home Depot is requesting the following variances from the existing ordinance: · Not require a masonry screening wall around the front corner lot · Delete the screening wall at the trash compactor · Delete the cul-de-sac requirements at the west termination of Wayne Lane (in an effort to-offset that requirement Home Depot will dedicate a public access easement along the back row and restrict access to these out parcels with no additional driveway on Precinct Line Road. Patrons will have to access off the public access easement.) · Allow open channel to be unlined to satisfy the Corps of Engineers mitigation requirements · Allow exterior building elevation articulation variations from the ordinance on the front and side elevations facing Precinct Line Road and Mid Cities Boulevard · Delete screening requirements for transformer and generator due to location on site · Permit garden center use · Permit garden center fence height increase (12 feet) Mr. Pitstick advised Council that this property has not been platted. When the property is platted there will be a detailed drainage study on the drainage channel. Home Depot has requested (2) 20-foot pole signs to be located on Mid Cities Boulevard and Precinct Line Road. The Planning and Zoning Commission at their April 27 meeting recommended denial for this zoning change request. Mr. Clark addressed Council's safety concerns regarding Home Depot's request for a right and left out onto Precinct Line Road and gave the following option for the northbound traffic. Home Depot would suggest a one-way, exit only, right turn on T.K. Martin twelve (12) feet wide. The signal would address Council's concern with safety and traffic congestion on Precinct Line Road. Mr. Clark advised Council that Home Depot is committed to restriping Precinct Line Road for the deceleration lane. Councilman Tolbert inquired about the 40 foot lights on the property. He asked Mr. Clark if Home Depot would consider changing the size. Mr. Clark advised Council the 40 foot lights are the current proposal and that would be the standard size light for any commercial property. He has no problem restricting the three lights to 25 feet. Councilman Tolbert asked Home Depot if they would turn the three lights off after 10:00 p.m. He asked that the lights be set on a timer. Mr. Troy Rice, Home Depot, advised Council that Home Depot would dim the lights once the store is closed. The primary reason for lighting is safety, both for the patrons and associates. Mr. Rice said the lights could be set on a timer by way of energy management. Councilman Tolbert also asked that Home Depot limit the hours of refuge pick up to no earlier than 7:00 am or later than 10:00 pm. Mr. Clark advised Council he had no problem with the refuge schedule. Councilman Tolbert confirmed with Mr. Clark that Home Depot would provide permanent irrigation in all places that have landscape. Mr. Clark confirmed they would provide permanent irrigation with exception of the drainage area on the west side of the building. Mayor Scoma opened the public hearing and asked for anyone wishing to speak for a group of ten or more people to come forward. There being no one wishing to speak as a group representative, the Mayor asked for any individuals wishing to speak in favor to come forward. There being no one wishing to speak, the Mayor opened the public hearing to opposition. The following individuals spoke in opposition of request: . Jan Patterson, 9021 Valley View; Faye Rogers, 6417 Rogers Drive; Charles Rogers, 6417 Roberts Drive; Buddy Scribner, 6400 Chilton Drive; Kadin Norder, 6409 Whitney Court; Jo-Anne Beveridge, 6504 Parkway Avenue; Dennis Buckingham, 9100 Martin Drive; Kevin Littlefield, 9108 Martin Rd; Michael Gerard 6405 Rogers Lane; Robin Eddins, 8628 Crestview Drive; Margy Agar, 6501 Parkway Avenue; and Claudia M. Thompson, 6512 Parkway Avenue. The Mayor received a petition opposing Home Depot. The names on the petition are listed below: · Mark & Rose Dudney, 6500 Valley View Drive; Kevin Littlefield, 9108 Martin; Barbara Faggart, 9212 Martin Rd; Kim Phillips, 9217 Martin Drive; Nicole Buckingham, 9100 Martin Drive; William Jenks, 9008 Martin Drive; Judy Buckingham, 9100 Martin; Susan Ortiz, 9012 Martin; Dr. Charles Rogers, 6417 Rogers Drive; Faye Rogers, 6417 Rogers Drive; Patricia Gerard, 6401 & 6404 Rogers Drive; Michael Gerard, 6401 & 6404 Rogers Drive and Dennis Buckingham, 9100 Martin Drive.

Martin, 6629 Chilton Drive; William S. Martin, 6629 Chilton Drive; Michael P. O'Donnell, 6729 Rolling Hills Drive; and Margio Dorman O'Donnell, 6729 Rolling Hills Drive. Mayor Scoma had a request from Casper Naegle, 7108 Stephanie Court to record her support for Home Depot. There being no one else wishing to speak Mayor Scoma closed the Public Hearing. Councilman Metts wanted to know what the concession was if any, on the traffic. Council discussed whether to have an exit only on Martin. Mayor Scoma advised Council that there has been no definitive decision. The recommendatiòn is a left out and right out on to Precinct Line. Council may elect to change that at the time of the motion. Councilman Welch asked if there was anyway that the City could limit traffic on Martin so they could not go west on Martin. Mr. Dickens advised Council that there are ways to discourage the traffic. Short of putting down spikes the City can not totally eliminate the traffic from traveling through the neighborhood. However, to discourage the traffic the City could construct a headache bar. Councilwoman Johnson moved to approve PZ 2000-20 for a Planned Development for a home improvement center including a garden center with outside display and sales and the site plan as presented by Ordinance No. 2483 with the following provisions: · Hours of Operation 6:00 am -10:00 pm, Monday - Saturday and 8:00 am - 7:00 pm on Sunday · Three parking lights on the south and west sides of the main building not to exceed 15 feet in height · Outdoor storage and sales area will be allowed in areas approved and located by the City Staff and placed in writing · Truck delivery hours of 8:00 am - 9:00 pm, Monday - Saturday and no deliveries on Sunday · Right-in and right-out on Precinct Line Road · Right-out only on Martin, with a median placed in the street and a truck headache barrier to keep the traffic from going to the left · Addition of three speed bumps on Martin to be located by City Staff and funded by Home Depot (Councilwoman Johnson realized after the Council Meeting this requirement is in conflict with current City Ordinances. Traffic calming on Martin will be looked at in the future) · All commitments made by Home Depot this evening are to be added to the site plans Home Depot is committed to restriping Precinct Line Road for the deceleration lane Home Depot would dim the lights once the store is closed via timers limit the hours of refuge pick up no earlier than 7:00 am or later than 10:00 pm provide permanent irrigation in all places that have landscape · Additional Landscape on Mid Cities Boulevard where it abuts the building Councilman Metts seconded the motion. Councilman Metts asked that the Police Department enforce the restricted left-hand turn on to Martin to compliment the discouragement of the headache barrier. Councilman Mitchell asked Councilwoman Johnson to amend her motion to include: · There be no traffic on Martin · Delivery Hours from 7:00 am - 7:00 pm Councilwoman Johnson denied the amendment regarding traffic on Martin but agreed to amend her motion to modify the delivery hours to 7:00 am - 7:00 pm. Councilman Metts seconded the amendment. Councilman Trevino asked Councilwoman Johnson to amend her motion to include: · Deliveries on the northeast side be limited to tool pick up and delivery by the public. · Deliveries on the northwest side be limited to lumber pick up and delivery · No overnight parking and storage of trucks or trailers on the site Councilwoman Johnson accepted and Councilman Metts seconded the amendment. Councilman Mitchell asked Councilwoman Johnson to reconsider the amendment of no traffic on Martin, in consideration of the close proximity to the school. Councilwoman Johnson denied the amendment. Motion to approve carried 5-2; with Mayor Pro Tem Welch, Councilmen Metts, Tolbert, Trevino and Councilwoman Johnson voting for and Councilmen Mitchell and Phifer voting against.

If, however, you still choose to approve Home Depot's zoning request, I respectfulIy ask that you address the following concerns and consider the following requests that would make it more agreeable to the neighborhood. 1. We respectfully request that here be DO Martin Drive Exit. A. The proposed exit on Martin Drive would be unsafe for neighborhood school children who walk or ride bikes to and from school. B. [n their Final Plat, Home Depot did not request that lots 6 and 7 of Thompson Park Estates be rezoned as Commercial or Planned Deveiopment. Does the City Council intend for the 40 foot public access easement located on lot 7 to be the Home Depot northbound exit? L Would that not be routing commercial traftic through a residential zoning and therefore, be inappropriate and iI1egal? C. The majority of the citizens who live near to the proposed HomeDepot, object to having an exit on Martin Drive and would like assurances that it will not be an exit for northbound Home Depot traffic. II. Address Our Concerns about Relocation 'of Floodplain and Drainage Channel. A. We would like assurances that the moving of the drainage channel will not negatively affect the citizens on the north and west side of the Home Depot property and their ability to obtain flood insurance if the moving of the drainage channel should make such insurance become necessary. B. Wouldn't the city be liable if a flood should occur and homes and properties were damaged as a result of the moving of the drainage channel and a subsequent, damage causing flood? C. According to the Corp of Engineers Home Depot has not been approved for a General Pennit to relocate the floodplain drainage channel. What will happen if the Corp of Engineers refuses Home Depot this permit? III. We respectfully request Enhancements to the Buffer Zone. Received Oct-Og-OO 03:23pm From- To-City Of North Richla Page 01 Oct-09-QO 04:55P Dr. Charles Rogers - Fa;t P.02 A. We respectfully request a children's neighborhood playground with first quality, safe, playground equipment built on lots 5, 6, and 7 of Thompson Park Estates and 90 feet of the Home Depot buffer property that parallels those tots on the south. Expense of these enhancements should be borne by the developer. 1. We respectfully request parking for 10 cars situated on Jot 5, 6. or 7 of Thompson Park Estates at the developer's expense, preserving as many native trees as possible. B. We respectfully request a nature trail for walking. jogging, or biking beginning on the west side oflot 5 of Thompson Park Estates and situated on the wider side of the proposed, relocated drainage channel and extending to Mid-Cities Boulevard at the developer's expense. C. We respectfully request appropriate landscaping that win blend in with the existing native trees at the developer's expense. D. We respectfully request a ten (10) foot masonry screening wall rather than the proposed 8 foot wall, and that the screening wall extend across lots S, 6, and 7 of the Thompson Park Estates. I am willing to participate in discussions with the City of North Richland Hills, Home Depot, and interested citizens of North Richland Hills to achieve these request. ~~.4~ Dr. Charles Rog€rs 6417 Rogers Drive North Richland Hil1s, TX 76180 Telephone: (817) 498-359 Fax: (817)281-7177 E-mail: crogers2@tlash.net (2) Received Oct-09-00 03:23pm From- To-City Of North Richla Page 02 Oct-09-00 04:55P Dr. ~. ......

David Casey, argued that because Keller approved the drainage systems, it bears the liability. Casey said his clients were being "inundated" with water from two develop- ménts that the city approved.

HL&P is now known as Reliant Energy. The case was based on claims by the cities that HL&P had intentionally underpaid franchise fees to the cities. The judgement included punitive damages totaling over $30 million and actual damages of $3.4 million. The cases were based on how franchise fees were calculated and from what revenues they were calculated. The issues involved are as follows: 1 . Wholesale sales to other utilities 2. Wheeling 3. Customer Pay Jobs 4. Miscellaneous charges 5. Pole attachment or rental charges 6. Franchise fee charge ("fee on fee") 7. Discount on factored customer accounts. TXU doesn't practice all of the things that HL&P was found guilty of, but they do some \......... things that are similar. Damages were found on HL&P's handling of items 3, 4, and 7. HL&P really hurt their case by one particular practice. It seems they were selling (discounting) their account receivables to an agency (partially owned by HL&P), and collecting the franchise fee only on the discounted amount. HL&P's agency received revenues in excess of the discounted accounts, and those revenues had no franchise fees paid on them. Current Status: The City of Denton has filed suit against TXU Electric and Gas on similar issues. During original discovery, Denton found TXU to be less than forthcoming with requested information and even saying that certain data was no longer available. Apparently enough information was gathered for Denton to believe that TXU had some problems similar to HL&P. Denton has been granted a TRO restraining TXU from removing, altering and/or Finance Review Source of Funds: Bonds (GO/Rev.) Operating Budget Other Account Number Sufficient Funds Available ,~ Finance Director Page -Lof -ª- .. CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS destroying records related to payments of franchise fees to municipalities in the State of ',-- Texas from 1982 to the present. A consultant hired by Denton estimates that TXU Electric owes Denton over $256,000 for the years 1987 - 1998 and that TXU Gas owes Denton $861,000 for the years 1982 - 1998. TXU only has 300 electric customers in Denton, although a much larger number are with TXU Gas. Strassburger & Price and Bucek & Frank are the two firms Denton has hired to handle this case. The City Council of Denton has asked their lawyers to seek out other cities in the TXU service area to join in this lawsuit while an Agreed Temporary injunction is in place that protects records of all Texas cities which TXU serves. North Richland Hills can join this suit by adopting an ordinance or resolution by October 20th. The cost would be $.25 per capita paid by October 31 and based on our 1990 census. That would equate to $11,473.75. A Steering Committee would be formed, and based upon case progression and costs could assess not more than one additional equal assessment if needed. These cost would be toward handling a multiple party lawsuit against the defendants. Staff has attempted to determine other cities that may be participating in this matter. Because of the short time period to respond most cities have yet to place this on their agendas. As of Thursday we are aware of eight cities that have joined the litigation. Staff has talked with a number of area cities about this matter. Most of them plan to consider it on their agendas in the next two weeks. From discussions with a number of city .'-.,... managers, it appears most of them will be recommending joining the litigation. Analysis: This case is not a typical utility rate case where some return to the customer is always likely. The litigation will attempt to convince a court that TXU should have collected fees on the previously mentioned items as they apply. There is some precedent for certain items even though various franchise agreements may not be specific on what franchise fees are based upon. I have visited at some length with TXU and they say that they haven't done all the same things in the same way as HL&P. They also say that if found to owe franchise fees, they will pay all cities the amount due, so it is not necessary to participate in the case. Denton has agreed that no city's assessment(s) shall exceed 10% of the amount of delinquent franchise fees that the audit reflects such City is owed by TXU It must be recognized that the largest single component of the estimated delinquent fees due are derived from the franchise fee being collected on the sales tax. That amount seems to range from 60% to 75% of the total estimated to be delinquent and unpaid. The Houston District court did not allow the jury to consider Sales Tax damages; however, subsequent to the lower court decision in Houston, an appellate court hearing the Central Power and Light case in South Texas ruled that a jury could consider Sales Tax. The .,,-. South Texas case has not Qone to trial at this date. CITY COUNCIL ACTION ITEM Page.£.. of L ". CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS '- The auditor hired by Denton has looked at our last 2 years revenues and made an estimate of what might be due us. That estimate is based on a formula established from the numbers arrived at in the Denton work. According to that formula, TXU Electric would owe us over $2 million and TXU Gas slightly over $200,000. Conclusion: Attached is a fact sheet prepared by Denton's attorneys in this case. The City of Denton has asked for other cities wishing to join this case to do so by October 20, 2000. While there are no guarantees, staff recommends pursuing this matter. Recommendation: Adopt Resolution No. 2000-80. '-- " CITY COUNCIL ACTION ITEM Page Lof 2 RESOLUTION NO. 2000-080 WHEREAS, the City of Denton has filed suit in Denton County against TXU Electric and TXU Gas to recover unpaid and underpaid City franchise fees; and WHEREAS, the City of Denton has invited other cities in the metroplex to join it in the litigation; and WHEREAS, a preliminary investigation reveals that this City has been underpaid for franchise fees by TXU and that it is in the best interest of the City to pursue collection of same through a concerted action with other cities in the pending case in the District Court of Denton county. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS, that: 1. The City Attorney is authorized to take such action he deems necessary to join the City of Denton and/or other cities, on behalf of the City of North Richland Hills, in pursuing a cause of action to recover delinquent and unpaid franchise fees due this City. 2.

APPROVED: Charles Scoma, Mayor ATTEST: Patricia Hutson, City Secretary APPROVED AS TO FORM AND LEGALITY: Rex McEntire, City Attorney FACT SHEET REGARDING UNDERPAYMENT OF FRANCHISE FEES CITY OF DENTON VS. TXU . A franchise fee is a rental fee that a city has the right to charge a utility company for the rental and use of city rights-of-way, easements and public grounds for the placement of pipelines, poles and utility cables. TXU is using public property for private gain. . The public right of way that TXU uses to provide gas & electrical service belongs to each city and its residents. Why shouldn't TXU pay reasonable value for the use of this property? . In Texas, utility companies generally have agreed to pay cities a franchise fee of 2% to 4% of the total collected monies that the company realizes from the sale and rental of its services. . Texas law states clearly that gross receipts means the "whole; entire; total; without deduction." In a franchise fee arrangement, "gross receipts" and "gross revenues" are considered the same. Utility companies must report ALL revenues collected then pay a 2% to 4% franchise fee of these revenues. Fact sheet! Daf!e two of four . Research for the Denton case concludes that it is common practice of the electric and gas industry to miscalculate the franchise fees paid to cities. . The City of Denton lawsuit alleges that TXU Electric and TXU Gas intentionally miscalculated and excluded a variety of revenues received for services sold or rented. This intentional miscalculation resulted in years of underpayments in franchise fees to the city. . TXU has refused to allow a complete audit of their records. They have refused to allow representatives of the city of Denton access to the requested records that Denton has tried to obtain in good faith. . One of TXU's questionable tactics used in Denton and other Texas cities is to pass- through to residents a franchise fee, then not deposit such fees collected into a separate account for the benefit of the city. In other words, TXU charged Denton residents for its use of city roads for utility services, but it cannot prove that all of the fees collected from residents was remitted to the city for the rental of the right-of- way. Fact sheet/Daile three offour . So far, financial auditing experts have calculated an underpayment in franchise fees due to the city of Denton in excess of $1.17 million. This is rightfully the city's money and could have been used for: · The purchase of 58 new police patrol cars · Thousands of library books and reference materials · Technology advancements/computers for the city · City park beautification projects/maintenance · Maj or street improvements . The TXUlDenton case parallels similarities of a recent case involving three Houston- area cities (Wharton, Galveston, Pasadena) who sued Houston Lighting & Power Co. (HL&P). A Houston jury awarded the three cities $10 million each in punitive damages and found that HL&P acted with malice by intentionally underpaying these cities. The total damages were $33.4 million. This is one of the first cases to address punitive damages against a utility for failure to pay franchise fees. . The Houston case involved the electric utility only. Denton's case involves electric and gas. Gas issues are similar in part, but involve other types of charges that were also excluded from TXU's calculation of "gross receipts." Fact sheet/page four of four · TXU has maintained that the Houston jury was in error when it found that certain revenue accounts were excluded from the "gross receipts" calculation. TXU also argues that its franchises are different from HL&P's when such differences are insignificant. · TXU cannot escape State Law on the issue of sales taxes. In the same service area, TXU has a contract with another city that specifically excludes sales taxes from "gross receipts." Denton's agreement does not speak to sales taxes. State Law is clear on this contractual issue. If one agreement excludes sales tax and the other is silent on the issue, then the legal inference is that sales taxes should have been included in the franchise that did not exclude sales tax (Denton's case). TXU chose not to do so. . The franchises are drafted by TXU and ifTXU does not want to include sales taxes in gross receipts, TXU should specifically exclude them. · TXU has profited at the public's expense. Texas dollars should not be allowed to be invested in places such as Kansas, Missouri, Iowa, Mexico City, continental Europe, the United Kingdom and Australia at the expense of Texas cities. _·,·,---····,--"'·~'~~_·~"·,··~_,_..,_.w,~__.___~_ Issues Brief Regarding City of Denton Lawsuit Against TXU Electric & TXU Gas The City of Denton's lawsuit against TXU Electric and TXU Gas. The lawsuit makes two basic claims: · Franchise Fee Pavments. Under its electric franchise with Denton, TXU Electric paid a percentage of "gross revenues from the sale of electric power and energy." The TXU Gas franchise requires payment of a percentage of "gross receipts received by the Company from the sale of gas to its domestic and commercial customers in [Denton], expressly excluding, however, receipts derived from sales to industrial customers" in Denton. Despite the clear language of the franchises, the audit report prepared by DUCI claims that TXU Electric and TXU Gas should pay franchise fees on sales tax, miscellaneous service charges, transportation, and other charges that are clearly not "revenues from the sale of electric power and energy" or "receipts from the sale of gas." · Expired Electric Franchise. TXU Electric's franchise with the City expired and negotiations on a new agreement reached an impasse. Denton's proposed form of franchise would impose new, highly restrictive conditions, including some provisions that are contrary to state law. The HL&P Lawsuit. . Contrary to the representation in the letter from the attorneys representing the City of Denton in the lawsuit, the HL&P case is not final. No judgment has been entered and the judge has ordered it to be mediated. A large part of the claims asserted by the cities in that case were rejected. . In the HL&P lawsuit, the Cities cited failure to pay franchise fees for eight different items: · Sales tax. The judge found for HL&P on summary judgment. · Wheeling sales. The jury found for HL&P. · Sales to other utilities. The jury found for HL&P. · Pole attachment fees. The jury found for HL&P. · "Fee on a fee". The jury found for HL&P. During the 1980s, HL&P billed franchise fees as a pass-through item that appeared as a separate line item on customers' bills. The Cities argued that HL&P owed the 4% franchise tax on this franchise tax revenue, such that the effective franchise fee would be 4.16%. · Customer-pay jobs, i.e., where the customer reimburses the utility to obtain service (also called contributions in aid of construction). The jury found for the Cities. TXU Electric and TXU Gas strongly believe that these amounts are a reimbursement of an expense - not revenue from the sale of gas or electricity and thus not included under the terms of the franchise fee ordinances. · Miscellaneous service fees. The jury found for the Cities. These charges are not in the basic rate for electric service, but are return check charges, reconnect fees, etc. TXU believes that these charges are not revenue/receipts from the sale of electric power and energy or gas. · Factoring of accounts receivable. The jury found for the Cities. HL&P was paying the franchise fee only on the discounted revenues it got from its factoring agent rather than the full amount of the accounts. In contrast, TXU Electric and TXU Gas have not discounted the amount used as the basis for the franchise fee calculation. · Other. All of the available information indicates that the jury's punitive damages award was tied to the factoring discount, particularly factoring to an affiliate. Since neither TXU Electric nor TXU Gas discounted its franchise fees due to factoring, the primary issue in the HL&P case simply does not exist. . More than half of the City of Denton's claims of unpaid fees are based on sales taxes or franchise fees on the fees themselves, issues that were rejected in the HL&P case. The only arguable similarities to the HL&P case are the issues related to miscellaneous fees and customer-pay jobs which are simply not included in the franchise fee under the terms of the TXU Electric & TXU Gas franchise agreements.
