Adjournment INFORMAL REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL No. IR 97-65 -4- Date: \j , SUbject: June 23, 1997 NRH20 Update The third season of operation at NRH20 is underway. The season officially began on May 17 and through June 16 we have had an attendance of 40,083. During the comparable time period last season we had an attendance of 52,885. This early season disparity in attendance can be attributed to a couple of primary factors. One factor has been the unseasonably cool weather (11 degrees cooler on average) of May 1997 as compared to the same month last year. Another major factor continues to be the "extended school year". Birdville Independent School District's school year included and extended well past Memorial Day this year. Given the fact that most of our employees and a significant percentage of our customers are constituents of BISD, the existing school schedule continues to have a detrimental effect on our attendance and revenues. '-- While our attendance for the first quarter of the season is behind last year's attendance by approximately 12,000, our revenues through June 16, 1997 are $614,394 as compared to $664,391 during the same time period last year. This shortfall is less than would be expected in correlation to the attendance figures and indicates a higher "per capita" revenue, despite our new policy of free tubes. "In-park" spending on food, beverage, ice cream and gift shop items appears to be increasing each year. Additionally, the approved modest price increase on daily admissions and season passes has helped maintain the park's financial performance despite the cool weather and longer school year. Now that the weather has heated up and we have finally broke into the 90's our attendance and revenues are rising along with the temperature! If Mother Nature cooperates, and our current trends continue, we should be able to get our attendance and revenues back on track. Speaking of the weather, you will be pleased to know that the off season drainage improvements enabled us to survive the storm of June 16th without any down time or flooding of the pools. Prior to these improvements, a storm of that caliber would have resulted in closure of the park for clean up on the following day. The new picnic areas have proven very popular and have helped relieve some of the congestion in the park. Another new service enhancement added this year is our public-private partnership with Chick-FiI-A restaurants. This partnership allows us to add a "name brand" high quality chicken sandwich and nuggets to our menu, resulting in additional sales and profits for both parties. We will continue to work towards identifying other win-win partnership opportunities as we continue to grow and move forward. ISSUED BY THE CITY MANAGER NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS We are pleased to share with you that we had an outstanding first "safety audit" of the season. The park safety team scored a 98 out of a possible 100 on this unscheduled surprise safety audit by our risk management consultant. The audit was conducted by Jeff Ellis, founder and principal, of the Ellis & Associates International Aquatic Safety Firm. We are very proud of the performance of our lifeguards and the excellent job our NRH20 management team did in the training of our guards as well as the high quality of daily supervision and operation of this facility.

Approved P. Burney: Licensing water bill insert. The Board was provided with statistical reports for 1997. P. Burney pointed out that the increase in licensing reflects when the license reminders were mailed out. She also noted that a water bill insert on licensing will be coming out in June. P. Burney noted that since the Animal Approved Services Center opened in 1987 the adoption fee has not been raised for dogs and cats. The proposal will be to raise the fee from $45.00 to $55.00 to help defray the cost of the microchip implant and the heartworm test. Warren Cox expressed to the Board that the turn around fee should decrease because more animals will be able to be returned to their owners because of the effectiveness of the microchip program. 2 5.

Burney informed the Board that the current Approved STONHARDTM flooring was installed in the Animal Services Center in 1988 and is beginning to show some wear through in high traffic areas and also some discoloration. The original provider and installer of the floor was contacted and has inspected the floor. He wants to do a test section to determine which type of coating will be the best to resurface the floors with. The test area will be installed free of charge. In addition, he has submitted a cost for resurfacing the areas of the shelter that are showing the wear. W. Cox warned to make sure that the product was going to remain adhered to the floor. Dr. Metcalf inquired about the guarantee. P. Burney told him that had not been discussed at this point. P. Burney provided the Board with the Approved changes proposed to update Ordinance 1848. Attached is a snyopsis of the proposed changes. P. Burney told the board that the Ordinance will be completly re-structured and presented with a new Ordinance number. A draft will then be sent to our City Attorney and our City Prosecutor for there review before being presented to the City Council for passage. The board made these comments on the proposed changes: Agreement on the need for the pet shop regulations and permit. Suggested that "immediate danger" be defined. Suggested that in 6-c, the late fee remain at $20.00. Regulations for foster homes and for breed rescue groups be included. 3 :::.I~~~II~~ql:I!III:!!I!¡!::!:!!!!!:!!:::!!::!I::r:!::::::::1::1:::1:1:..::..:::.:.::::....:..::::.:::::...i:·:>·i~~;li¡¡r..i"t:l·) P. Burney told the Board that a much needed storage addition is being added to the Animal Services Center. The 6' x 20' addition is being attached to the rear of the Center where it may be entered from Pavilion B. There will be an outside entrance which will be inside the Auto Impound for unloading food and supplies. 7. Storage addition 8. Adoption expansion This addition will free up the current storage room and allow for this room to be converted to a pre and post surgery holding ward. This will allow for the staff to keep the adopted animals away from the general population to help keep the animals healthy by placing them in a controled environment. P. Buney informed the Board that begining this summer, the Animal Services staff would like to work on an expansion of the front section of the Center. The intent is to redesign the receiving, adoption and office area to allow for a smoother traffic flow and to better promote adoption of animals from the Center. The staff will be working with Support Services to come up with a prelinimary plan for expansion. The intent is to use water bill donation funds to help pay for the cost and to raise the rest through an agressive building fund campaign. There is currently an accural amount of $78,000 in this account. 4 P. Burney: Enlist help of Thomas Powell for preliminary design work in '97/1'98 budget year. ,.-- -'--'--""'~"-~"'-_._._~'-~""--- ITEM #6 NRH Animal Shelter Board Meeting, May 6, 1997 Proposed changes to Ordinance 1848: 1.

The attached map shows an "X" for each signature on the petition. If Council decides to have a public hearing and consider closure of this street, staff would recommend the street entrance onto Holiday Lane be removed, the opening be closed with new curb and gutter, a portion of Green Meadow Drive be removed, and a 30-foot radius cul-de-sac be installed. The installation of a cul-de-sac will require some additional street right-of-way dedication from the property owners at the end of the street to cover the additional 5-foot width (10 feet total) of pavement on both the north and south sides of the street. If the closure is approved, staff would recommend the property owners in favor of this action pay the cost of materials. This would include concrete and steel for curb and gutter, lime for the subgrade, asphalt pavement, and grass sod. The City would pay for the labor, rentals, and equipment. ..:........?

Tommy Brown - Mayor ATTEST: Patricia Hutson - City Secretary CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS Department: Planning and Inspections Council Meeting Date: 6/23/97 Subject: _ Request of Vic Akers for a Final Plat of Lot 1, Block 1, Akers Addition. (Fronting the East Side of Clift Street, South of Walter Street, and North of Royal Oaks Drive) Agenda Number: PS 97-22 Vic Akers is the owner and developer of Lot 1, Block 1 (.9844 acres) Akers Addition. The property is zoned R-1-S Special Single Family Residential. The applicant proposes to build one house on the property. The major issues associated with this plat are: (1) Extension of Public Sanitary Sewer - The applicant was unable to obtain an easement from the property owner to the sorth for the extension of the public sanitary sewer line. The applicant has submitted plans for an aerobic treatment unit, the county has issued a permit, and Public Works is not opposed to the design, with revisions to meet City Requirements. The revised design will be submitted prior to obtaining a building permit. (2) Off Site Easements - Off site water easements may be required as determined with the approval of the water line construction plans. If needed the applicant has agreed to prepare easement documents for submittal to Public Works for review and approval. >',,--- (3) Street Improvements - The street improvements on Clift Street that front the applicant's property. require the applicant (developer, as cited in the Subdivision Regulations) to provide his share of the improvements. Public Works is not opposed to having the applicant's share (funds) placed in escrow for these improvements. The escrow amount would be for $86.18 per foot for 104 feet of frontage for a total of $8,960.64, which would also . include the cost for sidewalks. The applicant is requesting to sign a covenant for the street improvements. If approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission and the City Council the site specific covenant will be furnished to the applicant to sign and the signatures will be notarized. The developer has addressed all engineering comments. The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this Final Plat at its June 12, 1997, meeting and recommended approval subject to engineering comments and that a covenant be signed for the future street improvements on Clift Street. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council approve the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission. ~I Source of Funds: Bonds (GO/Rev.) Operating Budget Other ~ .

Re: PS97-04¡ Akers Addition¡ Block I, Lot 1 Final Plat This is a letter accompanying our resubmittal of the Final Plat of Akers Addition after corrections have been made as instructed by the City. The following are responses to the comments on the plat dated June 3rd, 1997. 1) EXTENSION OF PUBLIC WATER The developer will construct a 6" public water main from the south property line of the proposed Lot 1 to connect with the existing 4" line to the north. The plans for this proposed water line have been submitted to Public Works. 2) FIRE HYDRANT The existing fire hydrant at the southwest corner of Walter Road and Clift Street will be used to provide fire protection for the proposed Lot. In order to ensure that the proposed house is within the maximum fire hose lay distance from the existing hydrant, the front of the proposed house will be no greater than 75 feet from the proposed R.O.W. 3) EXTENSION OF PUBLIC SANITARY SEWER Our plans for an offsite sewer being extended from the north end of Royal Oaks will not work because we cannot obtain an easement from the property owner. We have submitted plans for an aerobic treatment unit which has been approved by the County. These plans will be revised to meet the City's requirements and be resubmitted prior to obtaining a building permit. 4) OFFSITE EASEMENTS The proposed 15 foot sanitary sewer ease- ment on the first submittal of the Final Plat is removed from the front of the Lot because we cannot obtain the offsite easement from Simmons. The lot will be served by the private aerobic treatment unit described above. If an offsite easement for the proposed water line extension is needed, I will prepare the easement documents and submit to Public Works prior to execution for review and approval of the Final Plat.

Akers Addition Final Plat comments (continued) 5) ROW DEDICATION The Master Thoroughfare Plan requires that Clift Street be 50 feet wide. The original right-of-way existed at 30 feet in width based on deed descriptions and property corner iron rods found on the ground. The Sullivans Addition across the street dedicated 10 additional feet of R.O.W. making the west R.O.W. of Clift St. 25 feet west of the original R.O.W. centerline. The existing east R.O.W. is 15 feet east of the street centerline and with the proposed 10 foot right-of-way dedication by this plat will make it 25 feet east of centerline for a full 50 feet of street R.O.W. 6) STREET IMPROVEMENTS The site specific covenant provided by the City stating the perimeter street fees to be placed in escrow will be submitted with notarized original signatures of the owners. 7) SIDEWALKS Sidewalks will be constructed in future street improvements and the cost for this is included in the escrow stated in item 6 above. 8) ZONING The zoning for this lot is now R-I-S and is changed to this on the plat. 9) STREET LIGHTING A street light will be placed on an existing telephone pole at the southwest corner of the lot and will be coordinated with Public Works and TU Electric. The cost for new street lights will be paid directly to TU Electric by the de- veloper. If there are any further questions on this matter please contact me. ,j¿~ Shaun Spooner ' ..' ~"..__"_'W'_>'_"___'_>__'~_" CITY OF N®RTH RICHLAND HILLS Pu:J!:·,: V/~I'~~S June 3, 1997 MEMO TO: Planning and Zoning Commission FROM: Julia W. Skare, P.E. Staff Engineer SUBJECT: PS97-22; AKERS ADDITION; Block 1, Lot 1; Final Plat ~ , We have reviewed the Final Plat submitted to this office on April 28, the sewerage facility plan submitted on May 27, and the water line plan submitted on June 2, 1997. The following items are for your consideration: / / 1. EXTENSION OF PUBLIC WATER A 6" public water main will need to be construded by the developer from the south property line of the proposed Lot 1 to the north. The line will need to be extended, as a minimum, to the bend in the existing 4" water line. The plans have been submitted to Public Works and are under review. 2. FIRE HYDRANT Based on the City grid map, the entire property is not within the 5OD-foot radius and the 800-foot lay distance. Public Works is not opposed to the use of the existing fire hydrant if the front of the house is no greater than 75 feet from the proposed RO.W. line. If the front of the house is greater than 75 feet from the proposed R O. W. line, the developer will need to install a fire hydrant. The fire hydrant located to the south of this property on Royal Oaks Court is not accessible from Clift Street. Therefore, will not provide fire protection to this lot. 3. EXTENSION OF PUBLIC SANITARY SEWER The lot is within 300 feet of an existing 6" public sanitary sewer main on Royal Oaks Drive. The public sewer should be extended from this point north up to and across this lots' frontage. The developer, their builder and the City have contacted the property owners to the south to obtain an easement. The owners of this property are not willing to grant the necessary sanitary sewer easement. The Builder has submitted a plan for an aerobic treatment unit. The county has issued a permit for this unit. Public Works is not opposed to this design. However, the plans for this unit will need to be revised and resubmitted to Public Works prior to a building permit being issued. P.O. Box 820609. North Rich/and Hills. Texas _ 76182-0609 7301 Northeast Loop 820 -817-581-5521. FAX 817-656-7503 4. OFFSITE EASEMENTS Off site water line easements may be required. This will be determined with the approval of the water line construction plans. The water line easements and exhibits will need to be prepared and forwarded to the Public Works Department prior to execution for review and approval. The signed easements, IT required, will need to be returned to the Public Works Department for filing with the approved Final Plat. 5. ROW DEDICATION Clift Street is designated as an R2U on the Master Thoroughfare Plan. This designation requires a 50-foot ultimate right-of-way. The ultimate right-of-way requirement is a total of 25 feet east of the existing centerline. The surveyor has indicated iron pins cannot be located on the west side of Clift Street. If that is the case, additional dimensions from the edge of paving to the fence on the west side of Clift Street as well as the width of the pavement and the dimension from the centerline of the paving to the proposed R O. W. line sha II be obtained and clearly shown on the topographical drawing. ? . The Subdivision Regulations, Article 10, Section 1010, Paragraph I, states no street may be designed to be dead ended without the installation of a cul-de-sac with a frfty-foot RO. W. radius. The Sullivan property to the west across Clrtt Street was platted in 1985 and does not show a R O. W. dedication for a cul-de-sac. The cul- de-sac was waived with the Preliminary Plat. I I / 6. STREET IMPROVEMENTS This plat fronts on Clift Street. Clift Street needs to be improved to provide curb and gutter along the east right-of-way. The Subdivision Ordinance requires that the Developer provide his portion of these improvements. Public Works is not opposed to the funds being placed in escrow for these improvements. The escrow amount is $86. 18tfoot for 104 feet of frontage for a total of $8,960.64. This escrow amount includes the cost for the sidewalk. If the Planning and Zoning Commission recommends this and the City Council approves a covenant, the site specific covenant will be furnished to the OWners to sign and the signatures will need to be notarized. A fax copy of the covenant form has been furnished to the City by the Owners. This document is not acceptable. 7. SIDEWALKS The Zoning Ordinance requires sidewalks adjacent to all public streets. '. As stated in item #seven above, the construction of the sidewalk is included in the quoted escrow amount. 8. ZONING The current zoning for the proposed lot is agricultural zoning. A zoning request for R-1-S was approved by City Council on January 27, 1997. 9. STREET LIGHTING Street Lighting is required by Section 1-06 of the Design Manual. The locations of any existing street lights need to be shown on the plans to confirm compliance with current ordinances. Any additional street lights which may be required based on current ordinances, need to be coordinated with Public Works and TU Electric. The cost for installation of any additional street lights will be paid by the developer directly to TU Electric. There is an existing telephone pole on the southwest corner of the lot. Public Works recommends the developer request the installation of a light on this pole. This review was based on the Final Plat, sewerage facility and water line plans submitted. The intention of this letter is to comment on items of significant importance to the general concept. There are a few comments regarding the plat and the water line plans. These plans have been returned to the surveyor and the engineer for revision. The marked-up blue lines need to be returned with the next submittal. #dÚ- Jf._~ Juli ' W. Skare, P:É.

APPLICATION FOR TAX ABATEMENT FEASIBILITY STUDY AND RECOMMENDATION NORTH RICH LAND HILLS ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT JUNE 1997 - -~---_'"___"W·___'''"~'~O__."._.___.".._ .~, _....._--."..._,._'~~._"~~_..._--_._,,----~._- The adopted Guidelines and Criteria for granting tax abatement in the City of North Richland Hills require staff to perform a Feasibility Study setting out the impact of the proposed reinvestment zone and tax abatement. QUAL/FICA TIONS TO APPLY Tecnol Medical Products, Inc. qualifies to apply for tax abatement as a Manufacturing Facility. A manufacturing facility is defined as "buildings, structures, fixed machinery or equipment, the primary purpose of which is or will be the manufacture of tangible goods or materials or the processing of such goods or materials by physical or chemical change". Tecnol will be expanding and modernizing its headquarters plant by 54,000 sq. ft. (to house manufacturing and office space) and remodeling 24,000 sq. ft. for engineering and product development. In addition to the cost of construction, Tecnol plans to add personal property (which is exempt from abatement) including office furniture, office equipment (including computers, faxes, printers, copiers), manufacturing equipment and machinery, lockers and raw materials. As defined in our Guidelines & Criteria, expansion means "the addition of buildings, structures, fixed machinery or equipment for purposes of increasing production capacity". Modernization is defined as "the upgrading of existing facilities which increase the productive input or output, upgrades the technology or substantially lowers the unit cost ofthe operations. Modernization may result from the construction, alteration, or installation of buildings, structures, fixed machinery or equipment". IMPROVEMENTS The proposed remodeling and expansion by Tecnol Medical Products, Inc. will be at the company's headquarters/manufacturing facility at 7201 Industrial Park Boulevard. In Stage I, Tecnol will remodel and reconfigure 24,000 sq. ft. of existing manufacturing and warehouse space for use by its Engineering and Product Development Groups. Remodeling will include an extension of the current mezzanine storage space, addition of 1,000 sq. ft. of office space, addition of 1,400 sq. ft. Of laboratory space, addition of maintenance and machine validation space, upgrading of utilities and HV AC to service the remodeled area and upgrade to meet ADA and Texas Accessibility Standards. Expansion plans include constructing approximately 27,000 sq. ft. of manufacturing space, 27,000 sq. ft. of office space, and additional space for parking. The office space will house the company's Sales and Marketing groups and will allow Tecnol to consolidate other functional departments presently located at different facilities or in different parts of the headquarters building. Construction Start: Anticipated Completion: Construction: Electrical: HV AC/Plumbing: Site Utilities: Landscaping: Fire Protection: Demolition Taxes, Bonds, etc. May 1997 February 1998 $4,120,500 254,000 172,500 100,000 100,000 17,000 9,000 77,000 APPLICATION GUIDELINES/ECONOMIC QUALIFICATIONS An applicant must submit the Application for Tax Abatement prior to the commencement of construction. H&M Food Systems' application qualifies as it was received on May 1, 1997. For an expanded or modernized facility an applicant must invest not less than $1,500,000 in the facilities over a three year period. Tecnol's application qualifies as they expect to invest $4.85 million. An applicant must create and/or retain not less than 10 jobs associated with the production of goods and services at the authorized facilities. Tecnol's application would qualify as they anticipate adding 10 employees after completion of the Stage I improvements. Likewise, Tecnol projects hiring another 200 employees over the next five years. These 210 total new jobs will raise Tecnol's North Richland Hills employment base to 1 ,169 people. APPLICATION REVIEW The City received T ecnol's application on May 1, 1997. The application and accompanying letter are attached for review. All requirements to make application for tax abatement have been met. Included are: a. Written Description of Project b. Statement of Improvements c. Map of Area d. Time Schedule e. Financial Information (included in the most-recent Annual Report) ECONOMIC EFFECT T ecnol's expansion and modernization will have a positive economic impact on the City of North Richland Hills and it's citizens. Areas of impact include: * The creation of: - 115 new manufacturing jobs - 60 new professional positions - 35 new administrative assistant positions * $390,000 of direct payroll impact upon completion of Stage I $5.23 million of total direct payroll impact within five years * An additional $580,000 in local bank deposits as a result of the new manufacturing positions (according to a study done by Deloitte & Touche/PHH Fantus) According to the same study, 115 new manufacturing jobs will also have an indirect impact of: - 230 additional non-manufacturing jobs - $1.96 million in additional payroll - another $580,000 in additional bank deposits * An additional $570,000 in local bank deposits as a result of the new office positions (Deloitte & Touche/PHH Fantus) According to the same study, 95 new office/research jobs will also stimulate 9 management-level home sales and have the indirect impact of: - 71 additional service sector jobs - $710,000 in additional payroll - $240,000 in additional bank deposits * An increase in the City's personal property values, helping strengthen North Richland Hills' economic base * An excellent match for the industrial, research and professional work force available in and around North Richland Hills TAX IMPACT Our guidelines for tax abatement allow for a 500% reduction in property taxes--on the improvements only--over a 5 or 10 year period. Based on our existing tax rate of .57 cents, abatement on the increased value of $4,850,000 would abate $138,225 in taxes over the life of the contract. It should also be noted that taxes would not be abated on: 1) The existing structures owned by Tecnol Medical Products. 2) Land Value. 3) Personal Property. FUTURE GROWTH As noted in Tecnol's application, "The new Manufacturing area will allow for the growth of the manufacturing activities of this facility necessitated by existing and anticipated sales growth." Likewise, the remodeled space will house the company's Engineering & Product Development groups, which "are responsible for the research, development and machine design for all new and existing products which Tecnol manufactures." A publicly-traded company, Tecnol is under the constant review of stockholders--and is therefore working to stay on the cutting-edge of medical product design and marketing. Moreover, these most recent improvements are a part of Tecnol 2000, the company's long- term plan for its 72-acre headquarters campus. Tecnol also operates a 136,000 sq. ft. Orthopedic Division Building (at 6625 Industrial Park Boulevard) in North Richland Hills-- which likewise has adjacent land available for future expansion.

The upgrade of existing consoles and an additional console are needed to bring our radio communication in-line with current and future technology. To be compatible with the existing 800-megahertz radio system, these consoles need to be manufactured by Motorola. The cost of the upgrade and new console is $102,933.00. The project has been split between two vendors in order to be as cost effective as possible. Part of the upgrade project is the purchase of three computers. Omtex is the City's vendor for computers. Omtex's pricing on the computer equipment is far below that of Motorola's. The cost of three computers through Omtex is $8,400.00. In case of any unforeseen problems with connectivity to existing equipment, electrical lines needing to be installed or moved, etc., we request that Council approve $13,667.00 be held in contingency for possible use on this project.
