Date: October 13, 1997 Subject: BIG FOSSIL CREEK WASTEWATER OUTFALL; TEXAS WATER DEVELOPMENT BOARD (TWDB) Planning Grant The City of Fort Worth will be the lead agency on this grant application, If the grant of $30,000 from TWDB is approved, the four cities of Fort Worth, North Richland Hills, Haltom City, and Rich/and Hills will be required to match the $30,000 grant amount for a total project budget of $60,000. This planning effort by all four cities is a necessity due to the EPA Administrative Orders we have all received, As part of the grant application, the City was required to execuh; a resolution that stated North Richland Hills would commit matching funds to this planning project if the application is approved Due to the application deadline being October 1, 1997, the City Manager decided to sign the resolution which was acceptable with the TWDB. Fort Worth will sign the contracts or agreements with TWDB if the grant is approved, The other three cities will need to escrow their portion of the $30,000 amount with Fort Worth prior to the consultant's beginning the project. This project should accomplish some of the work which would have been required by our joint effort with Richland Hills to quantify the old outfall's location, grade, and easement existence in order to transfer ownership of the sewer main to Fort Worth, North Richland Hills' share of the cost for this project can be funded from the savings we anticipate in our Sanitary Sewer Evaluation Study budget of $650,000, Respectfully, ISSUED BY THE CITY MANAGER NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS J J;~ .... - I~ · ~ ~ E ._-~'¡ ~ C) ¡; 3u...~; I '\9~'1\ '\ S tTI ~, â ( ¡ Q ~..I ~ ( ~ 3~:i~ \ ß-~~,~ \.1 Û It ~I I ' -':¡:J Co.' \'\ a \\\,~:) \ , .~--------- ---.---r------'" -~-<, ~ --~~-- \\ - - , \ \ \ \ ----.--- ._-~- - ----,~ -~-, -- --~ ---~ \ \ \ \ --------. .-' ----- --- ---- .

ADJOURNMENT There being no further business the meeting was adjourned at 8:30 p,m, Ross Hood, Chairman INFORMAL REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL N IR97-121 o. Date: Monday, October 13, 1997 Subject: Northwood Plaza Shopping Center RequEst Representatives of ASG Real Estate (the owners of the Northwood Plaza Shopping Center) have requested that the City appeal to the Texas Department of Transportation to reverse the ramps on the north side of N,E. Loop 820 between Holiday Lane and Rufe Snow Drive (see attached letter and aerial). Located on the northeast corner of the Loop and Rufe Snow, Northwood Plaza has seen several of its national and regional tenants leave the center in the past five years--including Minyards, Eckerd's, Wal-Mart, Sally Beauty Supply and Fantélstic Sams. ASG officials believe these losses--and Northwood Plaza's resulting 61 % occupancy rate (compared to a market average of 92%) are due to poor access, The owners of ASG are willing to share in the costs of reversing the Loop 820 ramps if you and TXDOT agree with their proposal. They believe that such a change would validate their proposed renovation and expansion of Northwood Plaza (ASG bought the land east of the previous Eckerd's space last year), help them retenant the center and expand NRH's sales tax revenues. I have shared ASG's request with Greg Dickens. He is reviewing the proposed ramp reversal, and we will be prepared to discuss it in detail Monday night. We look forward to meeting with you then, ctfully submitted, ~rPL. Marty i der Director of Economic Development MBW ISSUED BY THE CITY MANAGER NORTH RICH LAND HILLS, TEXAS ASG REAL ESTATE September 10, 1997 Mr. Marty Wieder Director of Economic Development City of North Richland Hills 7301 N,E, Loop 820 North Richland Hills, Texas 76180 Re: The Intersection of N.E. Loop 820 and Rufe Snow Dear Marty: ASG Northwood Plaza, Ltd"the owners of Northwood Plaza ¡located on the northeast corner of N.E. Loop 820 and Rufe Snow), are appealing to the City of North Richland Hills for help in improving the ingress and egress from N.E. Loop 820 If these existing problems are resolved, the company believes the city will benefit through not only increased sales and property tax revenue, but an enhanced traffic safety situation. The owners of the center would like to redevelop it, but suc~ess is unlikely until safe access to and from N.E. Loop 820 is achieved. The impact of the current situation is clear: 1) Northwood Plaza is at one of the highest traffic areas in Tarmnt County (approximately 99,000 cars per 24-hour period), yet it has only a 61 % occu¡:;ancy rate in a real estate market where the average is 92%, and 2) In the last few years, f'lany national and regional tenants, including Minyard's Grocery Store, Eckerd's, Wal-Mart, Sally Beauty, One Price Clothing, and Fantastic Sam's, have left the center for locations with better traffic situations. Despite the best efforts of Partners in Mobility, TxDOT changes to N.E. Loop 820 access are four to seven years away. Northwood Plaza and its remaining tenants need relief now, not in the next century, and we believe we have a solution, The owners of the center are willing to financially participate in conjunction with other businesses in the area affected by this change in reversing the) existing eastern ingress and egress lanes for N.E. Loop 820 adjacent to the center. ASG Northwood Plaza, Ltd, is currently recruiting the participation of the affected businesses for this proposed project. Enclosed is an aerial showing the benefit of such a change, If the City of North Richland Hills can join with the private sec10r in funding and gaining approval for this local solution to a local problem, we believe e\eryone will gain, The City of North Richland Hills will boost their tax base, Northwood Plaza will become an active updated shopping center, the other land owners will have better access to their properties and traffic congestion at Rufe Snow and the Loop will be lessEned, Marty, ASG Northwood Plaza, Ltd. very much wants to see the success of North Richland Hills and the Owners hope that North Richland Hills wants to ~,ee success at Northwood Plaza. We look forward to hearing from you and will help in any way possible to move the above mentioned project forward.

If they could at least come L p with $250,000 in 1998, we could possibly finance the additional $250,000 needed to cor struct Section"B2" along with "B" and "C". Another option for all three of these projects are to delay them a i'ear, combine them into one project and Watauga and North Richland Hills ask Tarrant C:)unty to assist us in the reconstruction. This should probably save us 30% to 35% of the cost for a private contractor to do the whole job. We could ask this to be done bef Ire the Rumfield Road, Phase III project (Davis Boulevard to Eden Road) Doing this wculd mean delaying Rumfield Road, Phase III to the year 2000, An estimate of the costs based off the recent Rumfield Road pric:!s (recognizing the drainage construction on this project will be minor) is shown belovv. Estirrlated Costs proJßct NRH Watauga Rufe Snow Drive, Section "B" $277,500 $277,500 (Fair Meadows Drive to North Park Drive) Rufe Snow Drive, Section "B2" $150,000 $150,000 (North Park Orive to High/awn Terrace) Rufe Snow Drive, Section "C" $105,000 $105,000 (High/awn Terrace to Bursey Road) TOT AL COSTS $532,500 $532,500 The CqrT)mittee's dire.s;tipn in this matter would be appreciated . r "J ~ . ).-1 , . j) :'" .,'.1: . ,.,..... ¿,fv¿~7(/f,. .

Mayor ATTEST: Patricia Hutson - City Secretary CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS Planning & Inspections Cou ",cil Meeting Date: 1 0/13/97 Department: Subject Request of Legacy Capital for a Replat of Lots 1 & 2, Agenda Number: ~.:1.4 Block 1, Brentwood Estates Addition, (Located at the Southwest Corner of Davis Boulevard and North Tarrant Parkway) Legacy Capital is developing this 12.4 acre tract of land at the southwest corner of Davis Boulevard and North Tarrant Parkway into two commercial lots, Tile tract is currently zoned C-1 Commercial and one of the lots is being developed into a convenience store/service station/car wash, A Special Use Permit has been previously approved by the City Council for the car wash at this location. The primary issues associated with this plat are as follows: 1, Water Line: The developer is connecting to an existing 24" water line located on the west side of Davis Boulevard and extending a 10" water line along the south side of North Tarrant Parkway to the western end of Lot 1, The developer is also ex!ending a 10" water line along the west side of Davis Boulevard to the south end of Lot 1. The extension of these two water lines are included on the North Richland Hills Capital Improvements Plan, which makes them subject to reimbursement from the Impact Fee Fund, The developer is also installing one fire hydrant to provide fire protection for Lot 1. Utilities are not being extended to Lot 2 because this lot is not being developed at this time, A note will be placed on the plat indicating that no building permits will be issued on Lot 2 until the developer has extended the required utilities, 2. Sewer Line: The developer is extending approximately 11 00 f':~et of 8" sewer line off-site to connect this particular development to the existing sewer system located in the Forest Glenn Addition to the west. 3. Masonry Screening Wall: No masonry screening walls are required for commercial development abutting major collector streets.. 4. Sidewalks: The developer is required by the terms of the Spe:::ial Use Permit to install sidewalks on North Tarrant Parkway and Davis Boulevard. The developer has agreed to install the sidewalks. The developer has responded to the North Richland Hills Public V'iorks comment letter and has complied with all the requirements regarding this replat. The Planning & Zoning Commission considered this zoning request at its September 25, 1997 meeting and recommended approval. ~ --~_._._---_._--~----_._-~-~--_.__._--------_._-_._-_.--_.._~_._-----------_.._-- -_._~-----------------_._-- Finance ¡:~eview Source of Funds: Bonds (GO/Rev,) Operating Budget .';1er I_be L.....__.

(Located in the 8600 Block of Grapevine Highway) PS 97-40 Western Rim Investors, Inc" is the owner and developer of Lots ~~R1 & 2R2, Block 2, Walker Branch Addition, containing 22.35 acres of land, The property is ~~oned as a Planned Development for multi-family apartments. The major issue associated with this plat is: 1, Sidewalks: The developer is requesting a waiver of the sidewalk requirement adjacent to Emerald Hills Way and Grapevine Highway, The developer cites existing conditions as supporting his claim of not constructing sidewalks since none cur'ently exist. Furthermore, the developer feels that the high volume of vehicle traffic and the general location of the plat are not conducive for pedestrian traffic. All other issues with this plat have been resolved and they have éjgreed to the engineering comments, The Planning & Zoning Commission considered this r'equest at its September 25, 1997 meeting and recommended approval subject to the installaton of sidewalks along Grapevine Highway. RECOMMENDA TION: It is recommended that the City Council approve the recommendation of the Planning & Zoning Commission, ---------_.._-_.._._--_._------~-------_._-_._------------------~--~~----~-_._--_._..._._-_._---- _.._-_.._.__._._._--~~-----_._--_._.~"-_."

FOR A FINAL PLAT OF LOTS 2R1 & 2R2, BLOCK 2, WALKER BRANCH ADDITION (LOCATED IN THE 8600 BLOCK OF GRAPEVINE HIGHWAY) APPROVED Mr, LeBaron explained that this is a 22 acre tract of land 10 ::ated in the Walker Branch Addition and is being developed into a multi-family development. All public works requirements have been met; however, the applicant is requesting a waiver of the sidewalks along Grapevine Highway and Em"rald Hills Way. Mr. Joseph Reue, Washington & Associates, presented thi '; request. He stated that the developer of lot 2R1 is developing the multi-family portion of this area and that lot 2R2 will not be developed at this time. Because existing development along this stretch of Grapevine Highway doe~n't have sidewalks, they are requesting a waiver of the sidewalk requirement. Chairman Barfield stated that it was the consensus of this (:ommission that heavy foot traffic will be produced from this apartment com-nunity to the surrounding eating establishments and recreational facilities; the Commission believes sidewalks are imperative because of this. Much discussion ensued regarding the issue of sidewalks dnd it was determined that sidewalks along Grapevine Highway should be required. Mr, Bowen made the motion to approve PS 97-40 subject to engineers comments, waiving the sidewalk requirement along Emera d Hills Way, but requiring the construction of sidewalks along Grapevine Hilhway.

The purpose of the TIF fund is to support use of high speed telecommunications in Texas schools, libraries, and hospitals, using funds provided by communications companies that elect to be deregulated under the bill. On September 1, 1997, the TIF Board announced its first round of grants targeted at funding Internet connections in public libraries. Under the grant guidelines, the North Richland Hills Public Library is eligible for a grant of up to $50,000 for equipment, software, and telecommunications services to provide public access to the Internet, and ultimately to make our library catalog available via the Internet. The deadline for applications is November 3, 1997, The grant funds are intended to be used to provide a dedicated computer for use as an Internet server connected to the Internet by a T -1 line, up to four additional networked PCs to provide public access, up to two network laser printers, and all associated telecommunications equipment, as well as installation, cabling and training. The matching requirements of the grant program are minimal. They require only that the City provide furniture for the equipment to be purchased and assume the ongoing telecommunications costs at the conclusion of the grant period, in August 1999. The potential benefit to the City is far-reaching, By linking the telecommunications equipment funded from this grant to the city's growing network, the equipment can be used as the Internet server for all departments of the city, resultin~~ in substantial savings and eliminating needless duplication. Current Status of Library Internet Connections: The Library currently has only a single PC with dial-up access to the Internet. The popularity of the service is such that both customers and staff experience long waits for a chance to access the wealth of information that is available over the Internet. The TIF grant program is intended to provide the funds to improve public access to the Internet. Recommendation: It is recommended that Council authorize the North Richland Hills Pubic Library to submit a grant application requesting TIF funds to provide improved Internet access at the Library, Source of Funds: Bonds (GO/Rev.)

A proposal is being submitted to TxDOT requesting the populatiol level be changed to include those cities with a population of less than 100,000.

This change reduced the width of the gabion channel from 65-foot to 40-foot wide, The net result was a decrease in the amount of $119,841,82. 2. The project was originally bid with very little drainage and utility improvements/ adjustments planned for Main Street The Main Street improvements were part of another project (Main Street Drainage Improvements) ~ lanned for construction this fall, However, since the contractor needed to reconstruct th=.! section of Main Street in the vicinity of the box culverts, it was more economically feasible to coordinate the drainage and utility improvements with the reconstruction of the box culverts, The net result of this change and some minor utility adjustments in the channel was an increase in the amount of $123,340,32.

New right-of-way is required from 11 properties. Proposals have been received for the right-of-way acquisition and are shown below: Company Acquisition Fee Completion Time Ponder Real Estate Service Co. Jerry Jones Real Estate Services $4,400 $4,400 60 days 60 days As shown, both acquisition companies have the same bid amount and completion time, In order to expedite the right-of-way acquisition, staff has spoken to botr companies about dividing the project into two smaller projects. Instead of having one company perform the acquisition in 60 days, we can get both companies acquiring the necessary right· of-way, This should substantially reduce the acquisition time. Acquiring the right-of-way within th:~ 60 days is crucial in order to coordinate scheduling of construction with Tarrant County, An assessment hearing will be scheduled upon completion of th~~ right-of-way acquisition, Recommendation: Staff recommends that both Ponder Real Estate Service Co, and Jerry Jones Real Estate Services be approved to acquire the necessary right-of-way. Pc nder Real Estate Service Co, would acquire six parcels for a fee of $2,400 and Jerry Jones RE~al Estate Services would acquire five parcels for a fee of $2,000. -~--~-~--_..-.__..~---_.- ---_._---~~-_.__.~._--~-~----_. ..

The Service Manager of the largest General Motors dealer in the area advised us that no local firm could match the price offered by the out of state specialist we contemplated retaining to refit the eight 1993 Caprice patrol cars. He further advised, after viewing the video tape we provided, that unless an assembly line was installed by a dealer (as the firm \He are considering has done) no dealership could offer the same speed of completion. The only firm established to perform total renovation of the Police Package Chevrolet Caprice, was Shaheen Chevrolet in Lansing, Michigan. On Thursday, October 9, 1997, a representative of the dealership advised us that he had a transport truck in Dallas and that if we could use this truck the cost for transportation would be $1,040.00 instead of the normal rate of $2,400.00, a $1,400.00 savings, We have written assurance that the dealership "will perforrr at no charge to you a complete inspection of the vehicle". The Support Services Director will be at that location when the inspections are completed to review and authorize repairs and refurbishing on a per vehicle basis. The inspection will include: 1. Complete brake system inspection.,., including brake calipers, wheel cylinders and repair emergency braking system. A complete test of the ABS braking system. 2. Front end suspension inspection....including fronUupperllo\Her control arms, all steering linkage (including steering gear), pump and hoses, fronUrear shocks and tires. 3. Final driveline inspection....the driveline transmission mounts, universal joints and axle shafts/seals. --------~---~--_._-------~---~-----~_._--- Finance Review Source of Funds: Bonds (GO/Rev,) Operatin udget_ Other Acct.

Body repair estimates are also no charge." The City Staff is requesting an $80,000 maximum authorization for the renovation of these eight vehicles, This is below the break-point in economic efficiency, If any unit cannot be refurbished within the limits of "economic efficiency" we will direct that it be reloaded on the auto carrier with the renovated vehicles and returned to us for retirement from the marked police fleet. During the day following receipt of our vehicles a complete detailed estimate will be presented for our approval. Since this dealer only installs GM Goodwrench Target engines and transmissions a 50,000 mile (or three year) warranty is included, Warranty repairs can therefore be performed locally, An eight minute v,deo tape explaining how the work is to be performed is included for your examination. Since the Houston-Galveston Area Council of Governmerts (HGAC) Cooperative Purchasing Newsletter for Fall 1997 lists Police Package Crown Victoria Fords at $24,063 and Chevrolet Tahoes at $25,999 we believe it well worth a try to refurbish selected portions of the existing marked police fleet at significantlý reduced costs. This refurbishing also, of course, saves significant time at our municipal maintenance facility since it is not necessary that all emergency equipment be removed and reinstalled on a replacement unit. We view the refurbishing program as a one-time per unit means of extending the life of these units to 175,000 miles, or approximately the end of fiscal year 1997 -98, Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council authorize an expenditure of "not to exceed" $80,000.00 for this program.

He did but Jean had problems in coming to an agreement with the owner. We considered huying the property ifshe didn't. Jean eventually was able to close the deal. ,January 1997 We approached Jean about buying the portion of the p operty that the old e~:isting house sat on, We came to an agreement and began looking lix iinaneing in March, ,Jul~' 1997 We secured iìnancìng and began working toward a cl(;ìng elate. Final plans were drawn Ún' the renovations and room addition that we planned. We had been aw,re of Jean's difftculties in getting her plots platted but did not think it would aikct us because this was a remodeLot a new structure, August 7,1997 We closed on the property and began dean up (the ph.~e was trashed and unlivable). Plans weîe being reviewed/certified by an engineer. August 28,1997 Brought plans to PJ Scare and he said everything wasine except we needed a schedule of bedroom doors and windows, Then when we tried to look up the property we IOund that it was unplatted and Mr. Scare informcd me of Section l35,A.l which states that a permit will not be Issued on unplatted land iÒr remodeling of an existing structure if the value of the structure will be increased by 50% or more. Since our proposed remodel would exceed the 50% rule, our permit was denied, Mr. Scan reJcrred me to Mr. Barry Lebaron ¡(¡I' more information on what our options were. September 2, 1997 Met with Mr. Lebaron, We discussed platting issues ;l1d he said that I should meet with Mr. Greg Dickens concerning the drainage, water. sewer, etc.. I went to see Mr. Dickens and explained the situation, :rhe water and sewer were no problem but the drainage was a concern Mr. Dickens suggested 1 contact the engineer that had been working on this pr~ject f()r many months and see if I ,:ould obtain an approximation of how much the overall cost for drainage improvements we would need to obligatl the property for. He also suggested I contact Larry Cunningham and ask for his direction and assistance i I this matter. I wrote a letter explaining the situation to Mr. Cunningham. I never received a dire~t answer bit Larry spoke with Randy and Randy spoke with Greg and they decided on the covenants to cover the future improvements, 9/4-918/97 Several conversations with engineer (Doug Long), surveyor (Bill Flooks),and Greg Dickens, Doug met with Greg Dickens and they discussed the drainage improvements in 1 11 at area and possible covenants for the improvements. 9/12/97 Greg Dickens called me and said that we could sign covenants for the improvements and that he would have them drawn up. I said okay, 9/17/97 When I came to put in our plat application Barry said I would ¡nave to have a fonnal plat drawing for the P&Z meeting on 9/25/97. This was the first time anyone told me about t ,is (I thought a survey was the same thing), so I called the surveyor and he said he could have one ready by 9/2 ¡ or 9/25. I told Barry and he said he would go ahead and put us on the agenda and submit the survey in the meant ¡me. Barry said to bring the plat over as soon as I got it. 9/18/97 Covenants ready for me to pick up from Public Works 9/19/97 project. We went ahead and got a demolition permit so we could at lea';t begin the prep work on our 9/22/97 Covenants notarized and returned to Joanie in Public Works, W2SN7 P&/ meeting: When my property was addressed, Mark Woo< said that staffhad not had enough time to review the information theref(¡re they were going to table this until the 1 I.~xt meeting. He also indicated that I did not understand what I had signed (reJerring to the covenants) and that he, I id not think that I would have the money when the time carne to pay fÒr the improvements, The council asked Ke,in Miller to prepare information fix them to review before the next meeting on 10/9/97. Kevin said okay he wOLld take care ofït. 9/26/97 I called Joanie in Public Works and asked her where the covenants wel I.: currently, She said the mayor had them and so I asked her if she could hold on to them and not send them to k filed with the county until I fÒund out what else the city was going to require for my platting, She said she \ould hold on to them unt i I we had more infÒrlll~ltion, 9/26-10/1/97 We decided to revise our plans (scaled down to less than 50(~/ó so that we could at 1eastmake the house livable until we could finish the platting process, Redrew plans and got r '.:W bids. 10/2/97 Turned in plans/bids/perm it request for first phase of improve nents, 10/7/97 8:45 AM I received a call from Christopher Baker asking for;, letter of cancellation concerning my plat request. I told him I was not canceling my request and he said someon< (who???) told him that I was not going ahead with the plat. I said that is not true and I have not told ANYONE hat I was pulling out. I stopped by Kevin Miller's oJlìce around 9:30 AM to see if the inf(¡ requested I P&Z commission was ready and did he need anything from me. He said that his dept. had done nothing on the) mject because Barry LeBaron told them that I was not going to plat. Chris showed up during this conversation. I .'xplained that we had chosen to temporarily scale back the project so that we could at least begin the building aI j make the house livable. We were still going through with the platting process so that we could eventually ccmplete our addition and renovation, I asked Chris if we were on the agenda for the meeting on 10/9/97 IOd he said no (this was news to me) and that they could not add us. 10/8/97 Received a fax from Kevin Miller with his recommendations, ,mcerning our project. He basically considers this a one lot subdivision and therefore recommends over $71,800 to be escrowc'-d f(¡r improvemÿnts to: drainage ($50,000), streets ($21,000,00+), sewer ($2800.00-+ and water($2800.00+). He also recommends a ncw street light that we have to coordinate with TU Electric and Public Works and that we have to pay fÖr. I don't even know the cost fi)!" this. 10/9/97 Received building permit for scaled down project. There is and has been a drainage problem on a 26 acre area for untold number < fyears. Of this area I own .6 acres. The projected cost for solving the entire drainage problem (according to he city) is $300,000.00. How can my part be $50,000.00'1 I just want to improve the house I own and live there. I am not a developer or brilder, just a homeowner. How can I be expected to put in escrow more than what I paid for the land and the house originally? I have already spent thousands of dollars in platting expenses and interest due t,) this situation.
