Re: Fire Department Passes Surprise
Inspection by the Texas Commission
on Fire Protection
Dear Mr. Line,
On March 15, 1994, Charles B. Porter and Jerry Swinford
with the Texas Fire Commission made a surprise
inspection. This inspection entailed the reviewing and
hands-on inspection of this department's equipment,
training records, and personnel's fire fighting bunker
equipment.
The Texas Commission on Fire Protection is a state agency
which sets standards and makes inspections, insuring paid
fire departments comply with these standards. The
practice of surprise field inspections has been in place
since January, 1993. This was our second surprise
inspection wi thin eighteen months, and as usual, we
passed with flying colors.
I attribute this excellent rating to the fire department
administrati ve staff and some key personnel in
establishing pOlicies and procedures to adhere to the
Fire Commission's guidelines. These surprise inspections
make us aware of the responsibility we have to you,
members of the city council, members of the fire
department, as well as the citizens of North Richland
Hills in providing the best fire protection available.
I've attached a copy of the letter from Mr.
expresses his appreciation for this
professional attitude toward the Fire C

Dear Chief Gertz
On behalf of the Texas Commission on Fire Protection, I wish to express my
appreciation to you and your staff for the professionalism, support and hospitality
shown during our recent inspection of your department. Your support to make
the Texas Commission on Fire Protection a viable part of the Texas Fire Service is
deeply appreciated. The citizens of your community are fortunate to have the
quality leadership you and your department provides during these hard economic
times.
Your protective clothing program and documentation of records is excellent, well
established, and shows your true dedication in providing a department your
firefighters can be proud of. If we here at the Commission can be of any
assistance, please let us know.
Sincerely,

Proposed Median on Rufe Snow Between Loop 820 and Lewis
Drive
Last fall we met with most of the business leaders on both sides of
Rufe Snow. We discussed the possibility of a median being constructed
from 820 to Lewis Drive. I felt a little like David in the lion's den
- they were alarmed, angry, upset, etc. A study more detailed than the
one BartonjAschman had done was suggested. Stanley peskind
commissioned a report by the firm of Deshazo, Starek and Tang. He
asked if this firm would be acceptable prior to their engagement. We
told him we considered them a capable firm. The attached report by
Scott Welmaker summarizes both reports which accompany this letter.
In summary, I would recommend that we don't construct a median on Rufe
Snow at this time. The committee that is looking at our street program
is focusing on Rufe Snow plus we have submitted grant applications for
additional funding for this project.
Please advise if you have questions.
Respectfully submitted,

MEMO TO: C.A. Sanford
FROM: Scott Welmaker, Marketing and Research Coordinator
Summary of Traffic Sirnal Operations Analvsis at Rufe Snow @ 820. Deshazo. Starek and
Tan~.FebruaryI994
The purpose of the report was to examine traffic patterns and develop traffic flow
recommendations. The first issue examined was the accident rate at Rufe Snow and Tapp.
Signal coordination has reduced the rate to 1.5 accidents per month, down from 13 accidents per
month immediately after installation of the signal. The accident problem appears to be
mitigated.
The second issue addressed was installation of a median on Rufe Snow from 820 to Lewis. It
was suggested that construction of this median will encourage V-turns which may be more
hazardous than existing conditions.
Traffic volumes of 38,000 vehicles per day were observed. Congestion was noted throughout
the day, becoming critical at the peak PM hour. Large numbers of vehicles travel southbound
turning left onto the eastbound 820 access road. A corresponding westbound to northbound
movement occurs during the same period.
The existing demand together with the inadequate number of lanes on the Rufe Snow bridge
causes the intersection to operate at an unacceptable level of service (F). The congestion is
directly related to the bridge and the signals on the 820 frontage, and not the turning movements
proposed to be eliminated by the median.
The current signalization at Rufe Snow and Tapp should be maintained until the bridge is
widened or traffic conditions change. Other recommendations concentrate on increasing the
effective number of lanes on the 820 bridge, and intercepting eastbound traffic demand at
Industrial Park and redirecting them to the eastbound ramp located west of Rufe Snow.
Council should consider requesting that existing programmed funds by TxDOT ($4.2mm) be
redirected to 820 bridge improvements instead of widening Rufe Snow. These funds are
estimated to be sufficient. Widening the bridge would be the most cost effective project to
increase capacity and enhance traffic flow.
Summary of Traffic Impact Analvsis Barton-Aschman Associates. December 1991
This report recommended a median be built from 820 north to Tapp to minimize the negative
impact percieved to develop with the opening of the Tapp Value Center. In stating that the
Value Center would have a small impact on the traffic, it was noted that Rufe Snow already
operated at capacity at peak hours. The report also recommended the traffic signal coordination
that the DeShazo report found to be adequate.

Draft Subdivision Regulations
Attached for your information is a copy of the proposed Subdivision Regulations as recommended by the Planning and
Zoning Commission. Changes to the regulations have been marked to make it easier for noting the differences from the
current regulations. The purpose of these modifications is to make the Subdivision Regulations more reflective of the City's
current policies regarding subdivision development. The existing regulations were adopted on March 18, 1989.
Municipalities adopt subdivision regulations for several reasons. One reason is to comply with State statutes which require a
subdivider of property to comply with municipal regulation before a plat is filed in the deed records. Another reason is to
require the installation of public utilities prior to the issuance of a building permit. A third reason is to distribute the direct
costs of water, sewer and street improvements to the property benefiting from development and not letting it become a
burden to the existing residences in the community.
Earlier this year, notices were mailed to the active developers, engineers and surveyors operating in North Richland Hills
advising them of the proposed new regulations. Fifteen firms requested a copy of the new regulations, and several offered
suggestions which were incorporated into the document.
No major concerns from the land development sector have been expressed. In summary, the major changes of the
regulations are listed as follows:
-
1. Establishes separate application procedures for each different type of subdivision plat. This will make it considerably
easier for the developer to determine exactly what regulations apply to his particular subdivision. The existing
regulations require the developer to decipher a set of complicated rules to determine which rules might apply to replats
and which rules might apply to final plats.
2. There is a new section which contains all the public works requirements for a subdivision. Each type of public
improvement, such as water and sewer, has its own separate paragraphs to make it easier to identify all the public works
improvements required for the proposed development.
3. The drainage study requirements have been clarified by describing a two tiered requirement. For example, a Drainage
Analysis is required for preliminary plats and replats. This is a scaled down version of a comprehensive Drainage Study
and its purpose is only to determine the need for drainage improvements. The second phase requires a complete
Drainage Study after it has been determined that drainage improvements are required. A Drainage Study includes
calculations for the sizing of any drainage improvements and a set of engineering drawings of the proposed
improvements. It has been difficult in the past for staff to properly advise a applicant on which drainage study
requirements were necessary for each phase of a subdivision plat.
4. The new subdivision regulations clarify the requirements for completing construction of certain public works facilities
prior to obtaining any building permits. A new paragraph explaining the regulations for Model Homes has been
included.
5. Certain administrative regulations have been removed which appeared to be clerical in nature. These regulations will be
incorporated into the departmental Standard Operating Procedures manual.

SECTION 10
SUBDIVISION DESIGN CRITERIA
10.1 Conformity with Zoning Regulations
Every lot shall be designed in such a manner that it complies with the minimum dimensions of the applicable
zoning district as contained in the Zoning Ordinance.
10.2 General Design Criteria
Every Subdivision Plat shall be reviewed by the City for conformance with the design criteria contained in this
Section. The City recognizes that suitability characteristics vary from site to site and the Planning and Zoning
Commission shall provide oversight in their interpretation, application and enforcement of these criteria.
A. Access from Major Thoroughfares - Where a residential subdivision borders or contains an existing or
proposed thoroughfare, as shown on the Master Thoroughfare Plan, residential lots shall not in general,
where possible, have frontage onto or derive access directly from an existing or proposed C2U Collector
Street, or larger. Non-residential lots which have frontage onto or derive access directly from an existing
or proposed C2U Collector Street, as shown on the Master Thoroughfare Plan, shall have driveway
locations which comply with the spacing requirements contained in the Design Manual.
B. Block Depths - Blocks should have sufficient depth to provide for two (2) tiers of lots of appropriate
depths. Exceptions to this prescribed block depth may be permitted in blocks adjacent to major streets,
railroads, waterways or city limit lines. The use of a public alley shall be limited to non-residential
subdivisions.
C. Block Lengths - Block lengths in residential areas shall not exceed fifteen (15) times the minimum lot
width required in the zoning district or 1,000 feet long without an intersection with another street. Blocks
designed for industrial uses may be of such length and width as determined suitable and appropriate by
the Planning and Zoning Commission for the prospective use. In long blocks, the Planning and Zoning
Commission may require the reservation of an easement through the block to accommodate utilities,
drainage facilities, or pedestrian traffic. When such an easement is required, additional width shall be
included in the adjacent lots.
D. Buildable Area - Every residential lot proposed for development shall contain a buildable area which
contains, at a minimum, 125 percent of the minimum structure square footage required for the applicable
zoning district. The buildable area shall be situated out of the 100 Year Special Flood Hazard Area.
E. Character of the Land - Land which the Planning and Zoning Commission finds to be unsuitable for
subdivision or development due to flooding, improper drainage, steep slopes, rock formations, adverse
earth formations or topography, utility easements, or other features which will reasonably be harmful to the
safety, health, and general welfare of the present or future inhabitants of the subdivision and / or its
surrounding areas, shall not be subdivided or developed until adequate methods are formulated by the
developer and approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission to solve the problems created by the
unsuitable land conditions.
F. Conformity With Comprehensive Land Use Plan - Every subdivision plat shall conform to the City's
Comprehensive Land Use Plan, Zoning Ordinance, Subdivision Ordinance, other applicable City
standards.
G. Corner Clip - At all street intersections, there shall be provided a minimum ten (10) foot by ten(10) foot
corner clip sidewalk and utility easement diagonal to the street right-ot-way lines.
Section 10 Subdivision Design Criteria
Page 10-1
e
.~

e
Subdivision Regulations
City of North Richland Hills
H. Corner Lots - Additional lot width should be considered for corner lots to allow for two street frontage set-
back lines.
I. Cul-de-sac length· No street may be designed to be dead-ended without the installation of a cul-de-sac
with a fifty (50) foot right-of-way radius and a forty (40) foot pavement radius back to back of curb. No cul-
de-sac street may exceed five hundred (500) feet in length, as measured along the street centertine from
the projected curb intersection to the farthest curb location.
J. Double Frontage Lots - Double frontage and reversed frontage lots shall be avoided except where
necessary to provide separation of residential development from Collector or Arterial Streets or to
overcome specific disadvantages of topography and orientation. The Planning and Zoning Commission
may require that a provision be placed on the plat to limit the facing of main structures or limit driveway
access from any Collector or Arterial Street.
K. Drainage Easements and Right-ot-Ways - The City will adivse the developer when to utilize either a
drainage easement or a drainage right-of-way to accommodate drainage facilities in the subdivision.
When a Drainage Easement is utilized, lot lines shall be drawn to the center of the drainage easement and
the drainage easement shown with a dashed line. Any lot which contains a drainage easement shall be
designed so as to have a buildable area that is, at a minimum, 125 percent of the minimum square
footage required for the applicable zoning district. The Planning and Zoning Commission may approve an
alternate plan whereby the drainage area is designated as a separate lot or shown as a drainage Right-of-
Way with public conveyance notation. When a Drainage Right-of-Way is utilized, lot lines shall not extend
within the limits of the drainage Right-of-Way.
L. Grading and Lot Drainage - Residential lot grading shall be conducted in a manner which will not allow
runoff to cross more than two lots, including the lot on which the drainage originates, betore it enters a
street or drainage easement. If this is not possible, then a drainage easement must be provided and any
necessary facilities shall be constructed and installed by the developer. Lots shall be laid out so as to
provide positive drainage away from all buildings. Individual lot drainage shall be coordinated with the
general storm drainage pattern for the area.
M. Intersection Angles - Spacing of intersections along major streets shall conform to the Design Manual.
Not more than two (2) streets shall intersect at anyone point unless specifically approved by the Planning
and Zoning Commission. Proposed new intersections along one side of an existing street shall, wherever
practicable, coincide with any existing intersections on the opposite side of such street. Streets shall be
laid out so as to intersect as nearly as possible at right angles. Intersections which are not right angles
shall use the following criteria:
1. A proposed intersection of two (2) new streets at an angle of less than seventy-five (75) degrees shall
not be acceptable. An oblique street intersection or curved street approaching an intersection should
be approximately at right angles for at least one hundred (100) feet therefrom.
2. Street jogs with center-line offsets of less than one hundred and fifty (150) feet shall not be permitted,
except where the intersected street has separated dual drives without median breaks at either
intersection.
N. Lot Dimensions. - Lot dimensions shall be consistent with the minimum standards of the Zoning
Ordinance. Proper design of a subdivision requires that side lot lines be at right angles to street lines or
as a radial. However, lot lines which are not at right angles to street lines, or shown as a radial, shall
contain a bearing notation. Dimensions of corner lots shall be large enough to allow for erection of
buildings, observing the minimum front and side-yard setback from both streets. Depth and width of
properties reserved or laid out for business, commercial, or industrial purposes shall be adequate to

lots shall provide for two or more entrance and exit locations.
a. Right-ot-Ways - Right-of-Way widths shall be consistent with those shown on the Master Thoroughfare
Plan. Right-of-Way widths in excess of the standards designated on the Master Thoroughfare Plan shall
be required whenever, due to topography, additional width is necessary to provide adequate earth slopes.
Futhermore, street right-of-way widths in commercial, industrial and similar high intensity land use areas
shall be appropriate for the type of development being proposed, but no street in such area shall be less
than the minimum required for a C2U Collector Street.
R. Water bodies - If a tract being subdivided contains a water body, or portion thereof, lot lines shall be
drawn so as to distribute the entire ownership of the water body among adjacent lots. The Planning and
Zoning Commission may approve an alternative plan whereby the ownership of and responsibility for safe
maintenance of the water body is so placed that it will not become a local government responsibility.
Furthermore, any lot which includes a water body shall contain a buildable area that is, at a minimum, 125
percent of the minimum square footage required for the applicable zoning district.

Requirements to File a Plat with the
Tarrant County Clerk
Effective Date: November 1, 1991
Court Order No. 61000 Dated: November 28,1988
To provide an accurate historical record of the plats, the following guidelines have been established.
Subdivision Plats must be filed in the following format:
Plats submitted for filing must be of clear and legible "Black" Line Mylar®;
Plat sizes must be 18" by 24", or 24" by 36";
The Plat scale may vary, but must be deemed appropriate by the Professional Surveyor to insure clarity and
legibility after said plat has been reduced for filing purposes. The Plat scale must not be smaller than 1" =
200'.
Any Plat submitted for filing shall have the dedication, legal description, and appropriate notary statements attached
on letter or legal size sheets. The County Clerk shall attach said sheets as a separate but consecutive page to the
Plat being filed.
Before a Plat is accepted for filing by the County Clerk, it shall have clear and proper signatures, seals, city approvals,
etc., and must be accompanied by the appropriate filing fee.
Plat size of 18" by 24" shall have a filing fee of $35.00, plus $3.00 for Records Management Fee, plus
$2.00 per page(s) used for the dedication, legal description, and notary blocks.
Plat size of 24" by 36" shall have a filing fee of $50.00, plus $3.00 for Records Management Fee, plus
$2.00 per page(s) used for the dedication, legal description, and notary blocks.
Any deviation from the above rules will result in twice the regular filing fee being charged for each page that does not
meet the requirements as set out. (Local Government Code, Section 191.007)
Any Plat submitted for filing shall have the following labeled on the Plat and located above the Surveyor's Title Block,
preferably located near the lower right corner of the Plat:
THIS PLAT FILED IN CABINET

Any information the County Clerk requires to be affixed to the said Plat during the photography and reduction process
should be added by use of transparent "stick-on" labels.
If a Registered Professional Land Surveyor is acting as the owner or proprietors' agent of the tract, then he must
acknowledge the Plat in the manner required for the acknowledgement of deeds. If not the owner or agent, the
Registered Professional Land Surveyor's seal and signature need not be acknowledged. Address and telephone
number must be included on the Plat.
The County Clerk shall use professional judgment and discretion from the time a Plat is submitted for filing through the
process of photography and reductions to insure legibility and clarity of Plats reproduced at a later time from the
aperture cards. One aperture card and one 18" by 24" copy or print with the filed volume and page shown on it shall

To assure the above mentioned guidelines are met, the County has established the following guidelines:
· All Plats to be approved by the Commissioner's Court must first be reviewed by a County Clerk employee in
the Recording section. The employee will affix their initial in the area provided for the cabinet and slide
number.
· The Plat must have the filing fee attached.

related to the offer by the City of Watauga to buy their portion of our
water system. Rodger Line received the letter from the Attorney for
Watauga. This letter and his answer are attached. A letter from Rex
McEntire to Watauga's attorneys is also attached. We have been in
contact with our engineers as well as other consulting engineers. We
are considering additional studies from these consultants.

Dear Mr. Daniel:
e
The City of North Richland Hills stands ready to produce the
available items listed in your letter of March 24, 1994.
The charge we asked in connection with item (5), the operating
budget, is based upon the actual cost of that document to this City
at the time of purchase. They cost $45.00 per copy. However,
since you wish to set a price of 85 cents for the first page and 15
cents per page thereafter, the cost to you will roughly be $60.00
per copy. We will compute the exact number of pages for you, but
you can make your deposit based upon $60.00 per copy.
Item (6) is a book which we are willing to sell for our cost of
$15.00. It would probably cost more under your formula.
Item (7) was quoted at a cost $1,000.00 as a courtesy to you.
There are no such listings and we were willing to create the
documents for you. Since we have no such requested record, we
respectfully decline to produce a non-existent document. The Open
Records Act does not require us to create records.
This City received a letter addressed to its elected officials
which is dated March 21, 1994. This letter advised in the last
paragraph, that any questions concerning the sale and purchase of
the water and sewer systems should be directed to the City Manager

Re:
Texas Open Records Act Request
Dear Mr. Line:
Please be advised that I represent the City ofWatauga, Texas. I am writing to request
the information included on Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated by reference for all
purposes pursuant to the Texas Open Records Act, Chapter 552 of the Texas Government
Code.
It is my opinion that the above and foregoing are public records and are subject to the
Texas Open Records Act. If you object to the disclosure of the aforementioned materials,
please contact me immediately. Otherwise I would appreciate your having the above referenced
documentation copied and forwarded to me at the above address. I will promptly reimburse
reasonable costs associated with photocopying of the requested information. Please include
a statement of charges in forwarding the requested information.
As you may recall, Mr. Bill Keating, the City Manager for the City ofWatauga, Texas,
requested this same information during September of 1993. You responded at that time that
the cost associated with items 5, 6 and 7 are as follows:
e March 24, 1994
Page 2
1) Item No.5. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $450.00
2) Item No.6. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $15.00
3) Item No.7. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. $1,000.00
TOTAL
$1,465.00
Although your cost estimate did not breakdown the costs relating to materials, labor,
overhead or price per page, I remain somewhat suspect of the $1,465.00 figure.
e
The statute that sets the guidelines for cost of materials requested under the Open
Records Act is found in Government Code Section 552.261. This statute provides that a
governmental body may not charge excessive amounts for public records and that the General
Services Commission shall set guidelines for recovering costs and expenses associated with
requests for materials made pursuant to the Open Records Act. To that end, the General
Services Commission has promulgated guidelines found in 1 Texas Administrative Code,
Sections 111.61-111.63 (see attached).
The guidelines established by the General Services Commission for Open Records Act
materials are as follows:
1) Fifty pages or less of readily available material... .10 cents per
page;
2) Fifty or more pages of readily available material... .85 cents for
the first page and .15 cents for each additional page;
3) Any quantity of information not deemed readily available ... .70
cents for the first page and .15 cents for additional page plus
actual labor costs incurred in providing the requested
information; and
4) The city should not charge labor costs for simply making records
available for public inspection under the Open Records Act.
-
e March 24, 1994
Page 3
Additionally, Section 552.262 of the Government Code provides that charges for access
to public records that are in computer record banks or other similar record systems shall be set
in an effort to match the charge with the actual costs of providing the record after consultation
with the General Services Commission and in an amount that reasonably includes all costs
related to providing the record.
Thank you for your cooperation and assistance with the above request.

Honorable Mark G. Daniel
Attorney at Law
115 West Second Street, Suite 202
Fort Worth, TX 76102
Dear Mr. Daniel:
The Mayor of North Richland Hills is in receipt of a letter of March 21,
1994 addressed to the elected officials of this City which appears to be an
offer to purchase that portion of the North Richland Hills Water and Sewer
System which is referred to as the Watauga portion. I have been directed
to write this letter as an initial response to the offer.
Your Council must be aware of the fact that this very matter has been
considered by the two City Councils before. Many engineering studies have
"'een conducted over the years including studies in connection with
~atauga/s offer of over six million dollars in 1985. The approach taken in
the Halff report is a distinct departure from the methodology historically
used by the two cities in the past.
It appears that Halff Associates, Inc. has been requesting information from
us and from Knowlton-English-Flowers for many months in order to complete
its report to your City Council. I do not believe that the City is in a
position to thoroughly analyze the report and make a reply to your city by
April 22, 1994. However, the City will attempt to get you a definitive
response within a very short period of time.
The most recent engineering studies of value which have been completed by
North Richland Hills indicate a current value of the portion of the system
referred to in the letter of March 21st in excess of twenty-nine million
dollars. However, we will look at your report and will have our engineers
update their study. Please be advised that we do not plan to unduly delay
a response to your Council's offer.
Very truly yours,

Department: Planning and Inspections
Council Meeting Date:
4/11/94
Subject: Request of Meadow Lakes North Company for Final Plat
of Meadow Lakes North Addition, Phase I. This property is
located south of Browning Drive, west ofIron Horse Golf Course.
Agenda Number:
PS 94-09
Meadow Lakes North Company is the owner and developer of a 15.8 acre tract of land located on the west side ofIron Horse Golf
Course, south of Browning Drive. The developer proposes to develop the land for single family residences. The Preliminary Plat of
this property was approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission on October 28, 1993. This Final Plat is consistent with the
approved Preliminary Plat.
The following are the issues concerning this Final Plat:
1. Browning Drive will be extended from Wuliger Way approximately 2,000 feet to the end of the existing Browning
Boulevard in Haltom City. The City will construct the roadway, and the developer will pay for all engineering and surveying
necessary. The developer will also sign a voluntary assessment covenant for repayment of 100% of the construction cost for
their portion of the street. This includes all of the south side of Browning Drive as well as the north side in Haltom City.
2. Questions regarding the dedication of right-of-way for Browning Drive have been resolved. Some parcels have been
dedicated by separate document, and the remaining portions have been dedicated by plat.
3. Portions of this plat involve small tracts of land which are part of Iron Horse Golf Course. The City Council is considering a
series of land swaps as a separate agenda item to clean up the boundary between the golf course and the adjacent private
development. .
All engineer's comments have been addressed.
The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this Final Plat at their March 24, 1994 meeting and recommended approval.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council consider the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission.

Staff Engineer
SUBJECT: PS 94-09; MEADOW LAKES NORTH ADDITION
Block 1-4; Final Plat
I have reviewed the subject documents submitted to this office on March 10, 1994 and offer the
following comments.
e
1.
Documentation for right-of-way dedication across 334.5' of the plat's northeast frontage
will need to be provided. This will confirm the plat's total north frontage being on
publicly dedicated street right-of-way.
2. Design must be provided for a grassed swale to be constructed on the golf course
property to convey runoff from the storm drain discharge between Lots 7 & 8 of Block 4
easterly to Singing Hills Creek.
3. The title block needs to be revised as shown.
4. The utility easement between lots will need to be 15 feet. The final plat will need to be
revised to show a 15 foot utility easement between Lots 8 and 9, Block 4.
5. A sidewalk and utility easement as defined in the Design Manual will need to be added at
the intersection of Iron Horse Drive and Browning Drive.
6. The current zoning needs to be clearly indicated on the face of the plat. This includes
the proposed lots and the adjacent lots.

The metes and bounds description will need to include the potions of land that was part
of the land trade with the City.
8. There are comments regarding the engineering and construction plans recorded on a set
of blue lines. The plans have been returned to the engineer for revision. The comments
contained herein do not purport to relinquish the design engineer of his responsibility to
provide adequate, accurate and buildable construction plans. The City's eventual
approval of the construction plans will not signify acceptance of responsibility by the City
of North Richland Hills for the engineering in the bid documents. Public Works is
recommending that this plat be revised prior to submitting to the City Council for
approval. The construction plans will need to be approved by Public Works prior to the
preconstruction meeting. The marked-up blue lines need to be returned with the next
submittal.

though it were a C2U Collector. The current designation on the Master Thoroughfare Plan is a C4U Collector.
The Planning and Zoning Commission conducted a public hearing to consider amending the Master Thoroughfare Plan to designate
Browning Drive as a C2U Collector from Rufe Snow Drive to the western city limits. The existing pavement from Rufe Snow to
Wuliger Way is currently constructed to the C2U standards.
The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this item at their March 24, 1994 meeting and recommended approval.
Approval of Ordinance No. 1981 will amend the Master Thoroughfare Plan to show the proper designation of Browning Drive.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council hold the required Public Hearing and consider the recommendation of the Planning and
Zoning Commission.

CITY OF
NORTH RICHLAND HILLS
Department: Planning and Inspections
Council Meeting Date:
4/11/94
Subject:
Amendment to the Building Code regarding
automatic fire sprinkler systems in existing buildings.
Agenda NumÜ~~4-37
Ordinance No. 1979
At the March 28, 1994 City Council meeting, staff was directed to prepare an amendment to the Building Code to exempt existing
vacant buildings from installing automatic fire sprinkler systems. The cost of retrofitting an existing building with a fire sprinkler
system significantly increases the market rent without improving the marketability of the structure.
Attached is a proposed ordinance which will amend the Building Code to delete the fire sprinkler system requirements on existing
single story buildings and high rise buildings. Approval of the ordinance will have no effect on the sprinkler system requirements for
new construction.
RECOMMENDA nON:
It is recommended that the City Council approve Ordinance No. 1979.

computer needs have been determined by
using the equipment and the purchasing
through a collective effort of the
Although several "computer plans" have been devised over the years,
the City has not had the services of outside consultants for this
type of planning. City Administration was made aware of the work
of one consultant in a neighboring city with similar computer
applications and was very pleased with their finished product.
The Management Information Services Department contacted this
consultant and has been utilizing his expertise in several other
aspects of the city's computer applications.
The computerization in place throughout the city today has created
somewhat of an .. information superhighway" that is necessary to
provide the quality services expected by our citizens and
customers.
e
To ensure the most efficient and orderly growth of this computer
infrastructure, we have been using this consultant, Mr. Brady
LeBlanc of LeBlanc and Associates, to assess our current and future
needs and recommend a proper course of action to continue and
enhance this level of service.
To date, Mr. LeBlanc has assisted us in gathering and analyzing
information relevant to our computer needs. His billings have
reached some $4,000.00. In order to complete his work and provide
the City Council and Staff with a long term plan, another $8,000.00
in funding is required. We are requesting authorization to
complete this study and report on our long term needs.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council approve
the expenditure of $12,000.00 for LeBlanc and Associates for
professional services and final report.

The installation of a storm drain in the street will require a large amount of street patching when the contractor is
finished. Staffs opinion is the City should consider paying $12,175.20 more and completely resurface this
section of street where the storm drain is to be installed. This will provide a much better surface to drive on and
maintain a much better barrier against water getting to the subgrade.

TraffIC LIght Synchromzation III Program -
Subject: Resolution No. 94-13 Agenda Number: PW 94-11
The Traffic Light Synchronization III (TLS) program is one of several department programs approved by the
Governor's Office as part of the "Oil Overcharge Restitutionary Act" which creates an oil overcharge account in
the State Treasury for use in funding competitive grant programs.
This program will provide money to cities across the state to be used to optimize traffic signal timing plans and
for the installation or replacement of equipment necessary for the implementation of signal systems. Typically,
this equipment will include controllers, cabinets, loop detectors, interconnect cable and microcomputer equipment
for intersection monitoring.
These funds will assist traffic engineers in reducing unnecessary vehicle stops and delays through more efficient
traffic signal timing, resulting in significant fuel savings and reduction in vehicle emissions.
Up to 75% of the project costs are eligible for reimbursement. If a project is funded, the local government
(cities) must provide a minimum 25% of the total direct cost of the project in matching funds and/or in kind
services.
Staff is currently working on three (3) grant applications. The first application is to synchronize the existing
seven (7) signals on FM 1938 (Davis Boulevard) from Maplewood Avenue to Starnes/Rumfield Road. The
second application is to synchronize the existing four (4) signals on Holiday Lane from Loop 820 to Industrial
Park Boulevard. The last application is to re-tune the existing synchronization on Rure Snow Drive from Lewis
Drive to Starnes Road. Staff will bring proposed budgets to Council in the future if the grants are approved by
the State. The budgets as proposed in the grant applications are noted below:
Proposed State Proposed City Total Proposed
Participation Particioation Proiect Funding
1. FM 1938 $11,378.62 $2,781. 90 $14,160.52
(Maplewood to Starnes Rd.)
2. Holiday Lane 11,707.57 $3,878.90 $15,586.47
(Loop 820 to Industrial Blvd.)
3. Rure Snow Drive 13,502.50 $4,695.20 $18,197.70
(Lewis to Starnes)
$36.588.69 $11.356.00 $47.944.69
Funds are currently available in Unspecified Street Fund Balance to finance the estimated $11,356 City
participation required in this program.
Recommendation: It is recommended Council approve Resolution No. 94-13 and authorize the Mayor to sign on
their behalf.

Introduction
A new retail development, Tapp Development, is proposed for the site located in the
northwest corner of IH 820 and Rufe Snow Drive in North Richland Hills, Texas. The
proposed retail center will contain approximately 432,550 square feet (SF) of gross leasable
area (GLA). The site location is shown in Figure 1.
The services of Barton-Aschman Associates, Inc. has been retained by the City of North
Richland Hills to prepare this traffic impact analysis for the proposed development.
PURPOSE
With Rufe Snow Drive currently operating at or near capacity during peak hour periods, the
additional demand generated by the proposed development could potentially further
deteriorate traffic operations causing unacceptable conditions, especially at the Rufe Snow
Drive access points. The purpose of this study is to assess the traffic impact of the proposed
development upon the intersection of Rufe Snow Drive and the proposed Tapp Development
entrance located just north of IH 820. The study intersection will be referred to as the
intersection of Rufe Snow and Tapp Entrance throughout the report. The study will also
identify necessary measures or alternatives to mitigate any anticipated adverse impacts
resulting from the development. The key impact areas included in the analysis are roadway
capacity and site access. Consideration has been given to the patterns, magnitude, origin,
and destination of traffic generated by the proposed development.
This report presents the procedures, findings, and conclusions of the analysis of the traffic
implications resulting from the proposed development.
STUDY PROCEDURE
In order to make a thorough evaluation of the proposed development with respect to impacts
on the study intersection, the following tasks were undertaken:
1. A discussion was held with City staff to fully understand the development proposal
and to formulate study objectives.
2. A field survey of the site was made to examine the physical and operational aspects
of the existing roadway network.
3. Existing AM and PM peak hour traffic volumes were obtained from current area studies
and supplemented with additional driveway counts.

Area Conditions
The major factors which will influence the accessibility of the site are the efficiency of the
roadway system serving the proposed development and the geographic location of the
proposed development with respect to other areas of activity. The efficiency of the roadway
system is a function of travel time, convenience, directional distribution of traffic, and
available capacity on the street utilized in traveling to and from the development. This chapter
provides a brief discussion of the area characteristics, including a description of the area
roadway system and existing traffic volumes.
AREA ROADWAY SYSTEM
There are several area roadways or proposed roadways that will provide access to the
proposed development. Direct access to the site will be provided by Rufe Snow Drive and the
IH 820 westbound Frontage Road. The proposed extension of Industrial Park Boulevard will
provide access to the site via Boulder Drive and will also help in relieving traffic congestion
at other major access points.
EXISTING TRAFFIC VOLUMES
Existing AM and PM peak hour traffic volumes were obtained from current area traffic studies.
Additional driveway turning movement counts were collected by Barton-Aschman at the study
location during peak periods. The existing peak hour traffic volumes are shown in Figure 2.

Site Characteristics and Proposed Traffic
The factors which affect the amount of site-generated traffic and its distribution on the area
roadway system are discussed in this chapter.
TRIP GENERATION
The traffic expected to be generated by a parcel of land is primarily a function of the use of
that land. The intensity at which traffic arrives and departs any site varies for differing uses
and development densities.
To determine the expected trip generation of the proposed Tapp Development, a nationally
recognized and accepted standard published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (lTE)
entitled Trip Generation, 5th Edition was used. This publication provides trip generation rates
and equations for varied land uses based upon actual survey data. Trip generation data for
land uses 820-Shopping Center, 890-Furniture Store, and 8 31-Quality Restaurant were used
for the proposed development, based upon potential land uses provided by the City of North
Richland Hills.
The trip generation rates and the land use densities for the development were then used to
determine the volumes of traffic generated by the proposed development. Table 1 indicates
the number of trips that can be expected during the AM and PM peak hours and on a daily
basis.

DIRECTIONAL DISTRIBUTION OF SITE TRAFFIC
The directions from which traffic will approach and depart the site is a function of numerous
variables. Some of these variables include the size and type of the land use, location of
residential population, available roadway system, travel time to and from the site, and the
level of congestion along area roadways. Based on these variables, the directional distribution
of the site traffic has been estimated. The resulting directions of approach are shown in
Figure 3.
SITE TRAFFIC ASSIGNMENT
Based on the directional distribution, the traffic expected to be generated by the Tapp
Development was assigned to the study intersection for subsequent analysis. It was assumed
that 40% of the site generated traffic would utilize the study intersection. The results of the
assignment are shown in Figure 4.
TOTAL PROJECTED TRAFFIC
The total projected traffic conditions at the intersection of Rufe Snow Drive and Tapp
Entrance will be the sum of the site-generated traffic and the existing background or non-site
traffic passing the site. The percentage of pass-by trips was estimated to be 20% for the AM
peak and 30% for the PM peak based upon data presented by ITE for retail establishments.
Pass-by trips are trips made to the site as intermediate stops on the way from an origin to a
primary trip destination. Pass-by trips are attracted from traffic passing the site on an
adjacent street that contains direct access to the generator, such as Rufe Snow Drive to the
Tapp Development. The total projected traffic volumes are shown in Figure 5.

Alternative Improvements Analysis
SITE OBSERVATIONS
Site observations made during peak traffic flow periods confirmed the congestion and
operational problems that exist on Rufe Snow Drive near the proposed entrance to the Tapp
Development. The most critical problems appeared to occur during the PM peak hour when
traffic is heavy on Rufe Snow Drive in both directions. Although traffic conditions are critical
during the AM peak hour, the traffic flow is more directional (southbound).
INTERSECTION CONTROL ALTERNATIVES
Based on the site layout, field observation, and projected traffic condition the following
intersection control alternatives were developed for the intersection of Rufe Snow Drive and
the Tapp Development entrance:
Alternative 1 -
This alternative uses the eXisting intersection geometrics and
requires that the existing traffic signal installation be put into
operation. Alternative 1 is shown in Figure 6.
Alternative 2 -
Alternative 2 limits the traffic signal to a 2-phase operation by
utilizing intersection channelization (concrete islands) to prohibit
left turns from Rufe Snow Drive and also left turns from the
entrance to McDonald's. Alternative 2 is shown in Figure 7.
Alternative 3 -
This alternative provides additional capacity for the northbound
and eastbound left turn movements. Alternative 3 would also
require the existing traffic signal installation be put into
operation. Three (3) of the four (4) traffic signal poles would
have to be relocated to comply with the proposed geometrics.
Alternative 3 is shown in Figure 8.
Alternative 4 -
This alternative proposes a median closure at the Rufe Snow
Driverrapp Entrance intersection and the removal of the traffic
signal installation. Alternative 4 is illustrated in Figure 9.

Other Considerations -
Other alternatives were evaluated but were deemed unacceptable
control measures for the projected conditions or were not
compatible with the site layout of the proposed development.
One control strategy considered to be unacceptable would be to
remove the existing traffic signal installation without closing the
median opening. This alternative would not provide adequate
traffic control for the traffic expected to utilize the intersection
to access the proposed development in terms of safety and
operations.
Another alternative that was explored included using Tapp
Entrance in combination with Coombs Road, such as a one-way
pair to accommodate the projected traffic. This alternative
would require signalization at both intersections and this would
be undesirable due to the impact the additional signals would
have on the Rufe Snow signal system.
Relocating the Tapp entrance was also considered as an
alternative. The entrance could be relocated and aligned with the
driveway to the north that currently serves the shopping center
(Wal-Mart) east of Rufe Snow Drive. This would allow traffic
signalization to serve both the existing and proposed shopping
centers and would also improve intersection spacing.
TRAFFIC SIGNAL COORDINATION
Several of the intersection control alternatives previously discussed requires traffic
signalization at the study intersection. If any of these alternatives are implemented, it is
essential that the study intersection be incorporated into the "closed-Ioop"signal system
currently proposed for Rufe Snow Drive. The coordinated signal system control would lessen_
the negative impacts the Rufe Snow DrivefTapp Entrance intersection would have on the
arterial system. It would also be desirable to provide coordination for the IH 820 interchange
signals.
OPERATIONS ANALYSIS
An operations analysis was performed for Alternatives 1,2,3, and 4 using the traffic analysis
computer programs, TRANSYT-7F and PASSER 11-90. Each alternative was evaluated for the
PM peak hour using the projected total traffic volumes. The study location was incorporated
into the PASSER II model developed for the Rufe Snow Drive "closed-loop" signal system
project. The signalized intersections at the IH 820 interchange were also included in the
analysis model to determine what impacts could be expected from the interchange signals.
Table 2 presents the results of the analysis for the study intersection.

One important element that is presented by the analysis is the minimum amount of left-turn
storage that is required for the northbound left turn for each alternative. The minimum
storage requirements shown are based on uniform arrivals and does not consider traffic
surges. Also, the left turn demand could be higher than what is projected. The average delay
shown is the delay that is experienced at the Rufe Snow Driverrapp Entrance intersection due
to the type of intersection control proposed and projected traffic conditions. What is not
reflected, is the amount of delay that could be experienced due to traffic backing through the
intersection from an adjacent signalized intersection.
The operations analysis confirmed the need for traffic signal coordination between the study
location and adjacent intersections due to intersection spacing and the magnitude of arterial
traffic. The analysis indicated that progression could be achieved with bandwidths in the
range of 25-35 seconds for each direction. This is based on the PM peak period using a 120
second cycle length.
Of the four (4) alternatives, Alternatives 2 and 4 provide the best solution in terms of system
and intersection operations. These alternatives provide the least intersection delay and would
be more efficient in terms of signal system coordination. Alternative 1 is unacceptable due
to the deficient left turn storage and it appears that the left turn lane cannot be extended to
the required length due to the limited space between the study intersection and the
westbound frontage road at IH 820. Also, because of the closeness of the study intersection
to the westbound frontage road, an adequate transition cannot be achieved to construct the
dual left turn lane shown in Alternative 3. The cost of constructing the additional capacity
for Alternative 3 is another factor that has to be considered.

Conclusions and Recommendations
This study assessed the traffic impact that the proposed development, Tapp Development,
would have upon the intersection of Rufe Snow Drive and Tapp Entrance located just north
of IH 820 on Rufe Snow Drive. Although the projected volumes for this intersection
generated by the proposed development are not extremely high, they are of a magnitude that
would have an adverse affect on the operations of Rufe Snow Drive. This is due to the fact
that Rufe Snow Drive currently operates at or near capacity during peak hour periods.
Several intersection control alternatives were identified and evaluated to mitigate the adverse
impacts resulting from traffic generated by the proposed development. Based on the study
findings, Alternatives 2 and 4 provide the better solutions in terms of safety and operations.
Alternative 2 limits the traffic signal to a 2-phase operation by utilizing intersection
channelization (concrete islands) to prohibit left turns from Rufe Snow Drive and also left turns
from the entrance to McDonald's. Alternative 4 closes the median at the intersection and
removes the traffic signal installation.
Alternative 4 is the preferred alterative in terms of traffic operations and is recommended for
implementation. The disadvantage of Alternative 4 is that it is the most restrictive in terms
of providing access to and from the proposed development. If it is determined by the City
that Alternative 4 cannot be implemented, Alternative 2 should be the second choice and is
considered a workable solution. Alternatives 1 and 3 were determined to be unacceptable.
Since Alternative 2 requires traffic signalization, if implemented, it is essential that this
alternative be incorporated into the "closed-loop" signal system planned for Rufe Snow Drive.
As a minimum, the signals at the IH 820 interchange should be time-based coordinated with
the Rufe Snow Drive system. It would be desirable to have the IH 820 interchange on-line
with the "closed-loop" system to facilitate signal timing changes and to monitor signal
operations.

Executive Summary
The purpose of this report was to examine the existing traffic conditions of Rufe Snow Drive near and adjacent to
the 820 Value Shopping Center and develop transportation engineering recommendations as it relates to Rufe Snow
Drive between Meadow Lakes Drive and Lewis Drive. This examination was initiated after several city council
members expressed concern about traffic accidents and congestion on Rufe Snow Drive to the North Richland Hill's
City Manager's office.
Specifically, the traffic signal serving the 820 Value Center jTapp and Rufe Snow Drive intersection was carefully
examined. This signalized intersection was activated in August, 1993. The signal was previously approved by the
Director of Public Works and was funded by Peskind Development in 1985. After the signal was activated a number
of reported accidents occurred. While this reaction is normal when new signals are installed, a more detailed study
was performed. The results of that study indicated that several changes have been made to the traffic signal phasing
in regards to the level of protection for left turning movements and signal coordination. These changes by the City
of North Richland Hills have reduced the accident rate to 1.5 accidents per month during the last three months of
1993 as compared to more than 13 accidents in a one month period after initial activation. The accident problem
appears to be resolved with the most recently implemented signal modifications.
The second and related issue associated with this study addressed the potential to install a raised median on Rufe
Snow Drive from IH-820 to Lewis Drive in order to further reduce accidents and increase the roadway capacity. The
construction of a median barrier will encourage V-turn movements which may be more hazardous than existing
turning movements. Several engineering observations were performed and traffic volumes were obtained for Rufe
Snow Drive north of IH-820. Traffic volumes of 38,000 vehicles per day were found on Rufe Snow Drive, a five-lane
undivided principal arterial roadway. Congestion occurs throughout the day and is especially critical in the PM peak
. hour. Large numbers of vehicles travel southbound and wish to turn left onto the eastbound frontage road of IH-820.
A corresponding heavy westbound to northbound movement also exists during this same time period. The existing
demand coupled with the lack of an adequate number of lanes on the Rufe Snow Drive bridge which crosses IH-820
causes the interchange intersections to operate at unacceptable Levels-of-Service F. The traffic congestion on Rufe
Snow Drive is directly related to the bridge structure and the signalization of the IH-820 frontage roads rather than
the turning movements proposed to be eliminated by the median barrier.
The existing signal at 820 Value CenterjTapp is currently doubled cycled along with Meadow Lakes Drive for every
cycle of the IH-820 interchange. The 820 Value CenterjTapp traffic signal operates in such a manner that it does
not create additional congestion on Rufe Snow Drive. Engineering observations indicate this signal operates with
minimal delay for the southbound movements and only slight delays for northbound travel on Rufe Snow Drive. It
is recommended that it remain in operation until improvements to the IH-820 bridge are implemented or traffic
conditions change requiring a re-evaluation of the traffic signal operations.
Other recommendations are provided which concentrate on increasing the effective numbers of lanes on the existing
IH-820 bridge at Rufe Snow Drive and intercepting the eastbound traffic demand via Industrial Park Boulevard and
re-directing them to the IH-820 eastbound ramp located west of Rufe Snow Drive.
Policy options for City Council consideration are provided that would request existing programmed funds by TxDOT
($4.2M) to be re-directed to IH-820 bridge improvements rather than be used to widen Rufe Snow Drive from four
lanes to six lanes. These funds are projected to be sufficient to improve the IH-820 bridge. Considering the Rufe
Snow Drive corridor, widening the bridge structure would be ranked as the most cost effective project to increase
capacity and enhance traffic flow in the area.

TRAFFIC SIGNAL OPERATIONS ANALYSIS
RUFE SNOW /820 VALUE CENTER
IH 820 AT RUFE SNOW DRIVE
North Richland Hills, Texas
J93154.0
BACKGROUND
The City of North Richland Hills has an estimated population of 47,250 people and is located in the north central
section of the DallasjFort Worth Metropolitan area. Tremendous area growth during the last few years has
resulted in very congested peak traffic conditions, especially on Rufe Snow Drive near IH-820. Rufe Snow
Drivej820 Value Center has recently become occupied by several major tenants. These tenants include Wal-
Mart, Home Depot, Sack N Save, Sears Homelife, Fort Worth Sports, Chick-Fil-A, Applebee's and Don Pablo's.
All of these developments represent..±.405,OOO square feet of gross leasable space within the northwest quadrant
of Rufe Snow Drive and the westbound IH-820 frontage road. As part of this recent development activity, a
traffic signal located on Rufe Snow Drive north of the westbound frontage road was activated in the summer
of 1993. The developer of the 820 Value Center funded this signal installation in 1985 as part of an agreement
with the City of North Richland Hills Public Works Director.
Since activation of the traffic signal at the 820 Value Center jTapp intersection with Rufe Snow Drive, a number
of reported accidents occurred at this location. Concern was raised by citizens of North Richland Hills which
was reflected in the City Council Members' request for alternatives to improve safety and reduce traffic
congestion on Rufe Snow Drive. The City Manager's Office corresponded with the business interests of the area
and asked them to attend a meeting to discuss the potential ofremoving the existing 820 Value CenterjTapp
traffic signal and installing a raised concrete median on Rufe Snow Drive between IH-820 and Lewis Drive.

PURPOSE
The purpose of this report is to respond to the City Manager's and Council's concern over the existing traffic
operating conditions found on Rufe Snow Drive near and adjacent to the 820 Value Center. This study examined
the existing conditions and identified the primary cause of congestion on Rufe Snow Drive near IH-820. Included
was the evaluation of the accident history of the traffic signal at the intersection of the 820 Value Center jTapp
at Rufe Snow Drive and the review of access control alternatives considered by the Manager's office. This study
also examined additional recommendations to improve traffic operations on Rufe Snow Drive north of IH-820.
DESCRIPTION OF STUDY AREA
The study area is shown in Exhibit 1. This study area is bounded by Meadow Lakes Drive, Industrial Park
Boulevard and Rufe Snow Drive. The area of special concentration includes that section of Rufe Snow Drive
between Meadow Lakes Drive and Lewis Drive. North of the 820 Value CenterjTapp intersection with Rufe
Snow Drive, Rufe Snow Drive is currently a five-lane, undivided roadway section which provides a continuous
two-way left-turn lane. A raised concrete median exists between IH-820 and the 820 Value CenterjTapp
intersection. The 820 Value Center development constructed Boulder Drive from IH-820 westbound frontage
road to Industrial Park Boulevard. The recent extension of Industrial Park Boulevard to IH-820 provides a
network of collector roadways which has substantially increased accessibility and convenience to the 820 Value
Center and the area's roadway network. The Rufe Snow DrivejIH-820 interchange is classified as a traditional
diamond-type facility with a westbound one-way frontage road on IH-820. Rufe Snow Drive provides four travel
lanes, two northbound and two southbound, across IH-820.

PREVIOUS STUDIES AND ANALYSIS
City staff of North Richland Hills successfully secured a Traffic Management Program Grant administered by
the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). The purpose of this program was to reduce vehicle stops
and delays, save fuel and reduce vehicle emissions by providing funding assistance to the City to re-time traffic
signals. A "closed-loop" traffic signal system was installed for seven signalized intersections along Rufe Snow
Drive from Starnes Road to Lewis Drive. This system provided a means of coordinating traffic flow with the
ability to monitor and respond to changes in the traffic stream on a real-time basis. A study conducted after
implementing the signal system indicated the project had a benefit/cost ratio of 3.53 to 1. These benefits
consisted of reduction in vehicle hours of delay, gallons of fuel and reduction in vehicle stops. The "closed-loop"
system did not include the 820 Value Center signal, the two frontage roads at IH-820, or Meadow Lakes Drive.
A traffic impact analysis for the Tapp Development was prepared for the City of North Richland Hills by Barton-
Aschman Associates, Inc. in December of 1991. The purpose of this analysis was to assess the specific traffic
impact of the proposed development upon the intersection of Rufe Snow Drive and the proposed 820 Value
Center /Tapp development entrance located just north of IH-820. The following alternatives were identified and
evaluated for the intersection of Rufe Snow Drive and 820 Value Center/Tapp:
Alternative 1 - This alternative uses the existing intersection geometry and requires that the existing
traffic signal installation be put into operation.
Alternative 2 - Alternative 2 limits the traffic signal to a two-phase operation by utilizing
channelization (concrete islands) to prohibit left turns from Rufe Snow Drive and also
left turns from the entrance to McDonald's.

Alternative 3 - This alternative provides additional capacity for the northbound and eastbound left-
turn movements by creating dual left-turn lanes. It also requires that the existing
traffic signal installation be put into operation.
Alternative 4 - This alternative proposes a median closure at the intersection of the 820 Value
Center jTapp at Rufe Snow Drive and the removal of the traffic signal installation.
The following table summarizes the operational analysis of each of the alternatives:
Operational Analysis Summary
Alternative NB Left Average Total Fuel
Min. Delay Stops Consumption
Storage (Sec./Veh.) (Veh./Hour) (Gal.jHour)
Alt. #1 200 ft. 14.40 1,508 32.60
Alt. #2 N/A 7.08 1,106 24.57
Alt. #3 100 ft. 12.33 1,363 30.15
Alt. #4 N/A 0.56 223 12.61
The operation analysis summary of these four alternatives indicated that all of the alternatives would provide
acceptable Level-of-Service operations based on avera~e vehicle delay values. The last alternative, which closes
the median and removes the signal, obviously has the lowest average delay and the least number of total stops.
City staff considered this analysis by Barton-Aschman and felt that Alternative 1 (i.e., activate the 820 Value
CenterjTapp and Rufe Snow Drive traffic signal installation) was a viable option among the alternatives
considered and authorized it being placed into service on August 12, 1993. Since that time, several changes have
been made to the traffic signal controller. Exhibit 2 identifies the chronology of the 820 Value Center/Tapp
traffic signal and the specific modifications which have been implemented.

by Gene Riddle, Public Works Director.
o
Traffic signal heads flashed until early 1990 and then traffic signal heads were bagged.
o
December 1991, Barton-Aschman evaluates four alternatives:
+ Activate signal with existing geometry.
+ Construct channelized median which would only permit
northbound movements from 820 Value Center, northbound
vehicles could not access 820 Value Center from Rufe Snow
Drive at this location.
+ Widen intersection to provide dual left turns for northbound
and eastbound approaches to the intersection.
+ Extend and widen the existing median which would eliminate
all access to 820 Value Center for northbound Rufe Snow
Drive vehicles and remove traffic signal.
o
Traffic signal heads were un-bagged in February, 1993 and placed in flashing operation.
o
August 12, 1993, the traffic signal was activated and was tied to existing Rufe Snow Drive
"closed loop" signal system from Lewis Drive to Starnes Road.
o
Initial signal operations provided "protected", (left turn on green arrow), followed by "permitted"
signal indications for left-turning vehicles on Rufe Snow Drive, (left-turning drivers required
to yield the right of way before making a left turn, with the driver viewing a solid green ball).
o
September 23, 1993, responding to citizen complaints and the number of reported accidents,
the left-turn traffic signal indications were converted to "protected only" modes of operation,
(i.e. left turn on green arrow only).
o
September 23, 1993 the signal timing was modified to double cycle the intersection signal and
Meadows Lake Drive for each cycle at the IH-820 interchange. The intersection signal was
removed from the Rufe Snow Drive "closed loop" signal system. The 820 Value Center/Tapp,
IH -820, and Meadow Lakes Drive intersections were tied together to provide a coordinated
signal system.

TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING ELEMENTS
In examining the conditions of the IH-820jRufe Snow Drive study area, a transportation engineer must consider
the safe. convenient and efficient movement of persons and goods. These three key elements of transportation
engineering are contradictory. One could make an intersection or roadway very safe by lowering the speed limit
to 5 mph, but it would not be very convenient or efficient. Prohibiting all turning movements at an intersection
would generally be safer and efficient for the majority of drivers, however, it would be very inconvenient to
drivers who wished to turn.
No one element of these three goals is more important than the others. All three must be considered in
developing solutions which are consistent with acceptable transportation engineering principals and practices.
One also needs to recognize the relationships that exist between access control and roadway capacity in an urban
area. Complete access control is used for the majority of freeways in the metroplex. The freeways therefore
can carry relatively high volumes of traffic at high speeds. In urban areas, however, principal arterials such as
Rufe Snow Drive provide access to adjacent land uses and traffic signals are often part of the roadway system
to control traffic movements. While the installation of a raised median has some positive influence in enhancing
roadway capacity, its total influence is relatively small. Roadways with medians compared to roadways without
medians may see a .±.5-10% increase in peak hour capacity. Increasing the number of travel lanes at critical
signalized intersections may provide an improvement in capacity which may range from 50%-200% increase.
There is a need to strike a balance between the two issues considering the type of roadway and its function.
Rufe Snow Drive also provides local access and service to retail-type developments which often are dependant
upon the magnitude of traffic volume for their subsistence. The existing two-way left -turn lane south of Lewis
Drive provides a physical separation between north- and southbound movements on Rufe Snow Drive functioning
as a non-raised median. This type of configuration provides enhanced traffic capacity without the restricted
nature of a raised median.

ANALYSIS OF EXISTING CONDmONS
Traffic volume data has been compiled from previous studies and new data was collected as part of this study.
Data collected on January 11, 1994 and compiled by DT&A indicates the total 24-hour volume on Rufe Snow
Drive to be 38,519 vehicles per day just north of IH-820. Exhibit 3 indicates the recorded traffic volumes and
depicts a graphic which indicates the volume for northbound and southbound traffic by ÛIDe of day. Exhibit 4
illustrates the turning movement volumes at IH-820/Rufe Snow Drive during the peak periods of the day
Turning movement volumes indicate a heavy movement to the south and east during the AM peak hour. During
the AM peak hour 852 vehicles were recorded making the left turn from southbound Rufe Snow Drive to the
IH-820 eastbound frontage road. During the PM peak hour, the majority of movement was to the north and
east. Six hundred thirty-six vehicles turned left from the IH-820 eastbound frontage road onto northbound Rufe
Snow Drive. On the westbound frontage road, 804 vehicles turned right to head north on Rufe Snow Drive.
For southbound traffic on Rufe Snow Drive, at least 681 vehicles attempted to turn left onto the eastbound
frontage road in the evening. This movement stayed consistently high throughout the day.
Traffic operations of Rufe Snow Drive were also observed during several site visits. Meetings were held with
City staff and TxDOT personnel concerning existing traffic signal operations and prior traffic signal timing plans.
Exhibit 5 shows the current cycle lengths for the signal system on Rufe Snow Drive between Meadow Lakes
Drive and 820 Value Center/Tapp. A critical lane Level-of-Service (LOS) analysis performed indicates the IH-
820 interchange with Rufe Snow Drive operates at "LOS F' during the peak traffic periods.

TxDOT SCHEDULE IMPROVEMENTS
As part of the new Intermodal Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA), TxDOT has identified and programmed
some $4.3 million to increase the number of through-lanes on Rufe Snow Drive from four lanes to six lanes from
IH-820 to Watauga Road. Engineering funding ($475,000) for this project is programmed for implementation
in the current 1994 fiscal year. Contained in the Appendix are the 1994 TxDOT Transportation Improvement
Programs (TIP) for the flScal years 1994 and 1995.
TRAFFIC CONGESTION
The traffic signals along Rufe Snow Drive control the amount and quality of traffic flow along the roadway.
Providing traffic signal coordination between signalized intersections is cost -effective and has been demonstrated
to enhance traffic movement. The signalized intersections north of and including Lewis Drive on Rufe Snow
Drive are part of a "closed-loop" traffic signal system which provides traffic movement coordination. The 820
Value CenterjTapp intersection, the two IH-820 frontage roads and Meadow Lakes Drive are not part of that
coordinated traffic signal system because of the physical constraints of the existing bridge and related timing
needed to accommodate the traffic demand. Efficient traffic signal coordination to provide progression on Rufe
Snow Drive through the IH-820 interchange does not appear feasible without widening of the bridge. With the
existing conditions. traffic on Rufe Snow Drive will continue to Queue at the IH-820 interchange. Signal timing
cannot accommodate the traffic demand.
ACCIDENT ANALYSIS
A major effort of this study was to review the accident history of Rufe Snow Drive between Meadow Lakes Drive
and Lewis Drive. This section includes the 820 Value CenterjTapp signalized intersection. The North Richland
Hills Police Department provided a computerized listing of accident numbers which occurred on the subject

segment of Rufe Snow Drive for the years 1992 and 1993. DT&A examined each of these reported accidents
and classified them by location and type. These accidents were further classified noting them as being related
to an intersection activity and/or a mid-block location. A listing of the selected accidents are contained in the
Appendix.
A total of 322 accidents were reported along Rufe Snow Drive between Meadow Lakes Drive and Lewis Drive
during the two years studied. Exhibit 6 summarizes the number of accidents reported in 1992 and 1993 by
location. Exhibits 7 and 8 represent a collision diagram summary which shows the number of reported accidents
according to location and type. A total of 153 accidents were reported in 1992 while 169 accidents were reported
in 1993. Of particular interest in this study is the number of accidents reported at the intersection of Rufe Snow
Drive and 820 Value Center/Tapp.

On August 12, 1993 the traffic signal at Rufe Snow Drive and 820 Value Center jTapp was activated. This signal
was interconnected and coordinated with seven other signalized intersections from Lewis Drive to Starnes Road
in a "closed-loop" signal system. This system was not coordinated with the IH-820 interchange signals even
though the 820 Value CenterjTapp signal is separated by less than 450 feet. This lack of coordination with the
IH-820 interchange may be a causative factor in explaining the frequency of accidents at 820 Value CenterjTapp.
The signal provided for protected and permitted left-turn phasing from Rufe Snow Drive.
Prior to the activation of the signal in 1993, a total of 26 reported accidents were recorded during an 8.5-month
period, representing an accident rate of 3.55 accidents per month. On September 17, 1993 the left-turn signal
phasing was converted to allow left turns only during the display of a protected left-turn green arrow. There
were thirteen reported accidents which occurred prior to this change in a 30 day period of time.
On September 23, 1993, the subject traffic signal was removed from the "closed-loop" system and tied in with
Meadow Lakes Drive and IH-820 interchange signals. The signal at 820 Value CenterjTapp was also double-
cycled along with Meadow Lakes Drive for each cycle which occurred at IH-820. Since September 23, when the
latest changes were implemented by the City of North Richland Hills, only five accidents have been reported at
the 820 Value Center/Tapp intersection in the last three months of the year. The change in traffic operations
strategy initiated by the City has been effective in minimizing the number of accidents at the subject intersection.
Exhibit 9 summarizes the number of accidents that occurred at this intersection.

The installation of a new traffic signal on an arterial will almost always show an increase in the number of
accidents "immediately after" its installation. The frequency increases while the kinds and types of accidents
change. Signals generally eliminate right-angle and serious injury accidents, yet rear-end and damage-only
accidents are generally expected to increase. Once the City activated the 820 Value CenterjTapp signal, several
changes and modifications were attempted by the City to improve traffic flow and to respond to the number of
reported accidents at this location. The City's process to modify the operation has been successful in eliminating
the relatively high frequency of reported accidents at this location. The last three months reflect the significant
improvement over the initial trial installation. It should also be noted that the accident rate in the last three
months of 1993 has been reduced by a factor of 7.2 as compared to the accident rate immediatelv after the signal
was activated. One would anticipate a continuation of this performance for 1994.
TRAFFIC CONGESTION
Movement of traffic on Rufe Snow Drive is dependent upon the most constrained or critical signalized
intersection on the roadway. The constraints associated with movement on an arterial roadway could be
considered similar to uncompressed fluids within a fixed container. As an example, one could measure the
amount of sand that could flow through a ten-foot long stove pipe within an hour. This would represent the
traffic flow without signalization on the arterial. As signals are installed on the arterial, the stove pipe's diameter
is correspondingly reduced; cutting the pipe's capacity by forty to sixty percent--much like an hourglass is
constructed to limit the flow of sand. The intersection which provides the least arterial green time becomes the
critical intersection of the arterial. On Rufe Snow Drive, the IH-82O interchange is the most restrictive
intersection in regards to sipal timing. This restriction regulates the volume of traffic in the peak traffic hours
on Rufe Snow Drive.
Modifications to the median or signal timing adjustments to the other intersections on Rufe Snow Drive will not
significantly "improve traffic operations" or "increase capacity" of Rufe Snow Drive. Improvements to the IH-

820/Rufe Snow Drive interchange bridge, on the other hand, will effectively increase the capacity of the
interchange and improve the flow of traffic on Rufe Snow Drive. This improvement will enhance both north-
south and east-west movements at the interchange.
IH-820/RUFE SNOW DRIVE BRIDGE
The width of the IH-820 bridge at Rufe Snow Drive is 48 feet, curb face to curb face. A sidewalk/safety refuge
area of approximately 5.5 feet exists on both sides of the bridge. Four twelve-foot wide lanes are provided on
the bridge; two for each direction. The northbound lanes are permanently designated by signs and pavement
markings with the inside lane noted as a combination through/left-turn lane and the outside lane as a through
lane. The southbound lanes, however, are controlled by two changeable message signs. During southbound
through movements on Rufe Snow Drive, the inside lane is designated for left-turns only and drivers in the
outside lane can turn left or proceed straight. This signing strategy attempts to accommodate the heavy
southbound to eastbound left-turn movement by allowing left turns from two lanes. During the westbound
frontage road phase of the traffic signal controller when traffic is turning from the frontage road onto
southbound Rufe Snow Drive, the southbound lanes on the bridge are designated as a shared left/through lane
for the inside lane and a through-only lane for the outside lane. This method of operation enhances the roadway
carrying capacity of Rufe Snow Drive with a slight decrease in traffic safety.
The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is in the initial planning phases of e,r::tmining the potential
to widen IH-820 to accommodate 4-5 lanes of travel for each direction. This process has been initiated, however,
the scheduling of any improvement is uncertain at the current time. There is no funding currently identified to
improve the Rufe Snow Drive bridge structure across IH-820 other than the construction associated with the total
IH -820 widening.

The potential to develop an alternative strategy related to the IH-82O bridge was investigated. The removal of
approximately 3.5 feet of sidewalk area on each side of the existing bridge appears to be feasible. This action
would allow five ll-foot wide lanes on the existing bridge. These lanes could be striped in at least three different
configurations which would align with the existing lane assignments at the bridge approaches. These three lane
assignments are shown in Exhibit 10. A Level-of-Service analysis using Passer III software indicates that
Alternative A would provide the highest Level-of-Service of the three alternatives. Preliminary costs to perform
the suggested modifications are projected to be in the range of $150,000-$250,000. A Level-of-Service summary
of the existing conditions and these three alternatives is noted in Exhibit 13.

CONCEPTUAL LANE GEOMETRY FOR IH-820 BRIDGE
A conceptual bridge plan has also been prepared to accommodate the projected demand at IH-820 and Rufe
Snow Drive. This concept sketch is shown in Exhibit 11 and will be referred to as Alternate D. It includes a
total of eight travel lanes on the main bridge structure and two Texas V-turn bridges for both frontage roads.
Because TxDOT has recently decided to incorporated retaining wall type sections in their new construction to
minimize right-of-way acquisition, it is possible to construct a bridge similar to that shown in Exhibit 12 using
two 100-foot spans prior to the currently planned re-construction of IH-820. This configuration would generally
coincide with the existing location of the frontage roads and would also allow TxDOT to provide for five through-
lanes in each direction on IH-820 in the future. The proposed bridge would also eliminate the changing lane
assignments for southbound movements which will minimize the relatively high number of improper lane-change
type accidents at the interchange. Exhibit 13 summarizes the anticipated Levels-of-Service for the IH-820
interchange comparing existing conditions to increasing the number of lanes of the existing bridge to
reconstruction.
The City of North Richland Hills may wish to consider submitting a formal request to TxDOT asking that
currently programmed funds to widen Rufe Snow Drive from four lanes to six lanes north of IH-820 be re-
directed toward the re-construction of the IH-820jRufe Snow Drive bridge. This would represent the most cost-
effective way to eliminate the current "bottleneck" on Rufe Snow Drive. Spending funds to widen Rufe Snow
Drive to six lanes will not be as cost effective as improving the IH-820jRufe Snow Drive bridge.

18-820 EASTBOUND TRAILBLAZING
The City has installed information-type signs for southbound Rufe Snow Drive traffic north of Industrial Park
Boulevard advising motorists that they can access IH-820 East by turning right on Industrial Park Boulevard.
Exhibit 14 illustrates the message and location of the three signs. The installation of this signing is an excellent
example of managing traffic demand by re-directing it to a location that will reduce congestion on Rufe Snow
Drive at IH-820. This exhibit also indicates recommended changes. It is recommended that conventional
interstate shields with appropriate legends be used to trailblaze the route. Traffic which seeks to utilize this
alternative means to gain access to IH-820 East is removed from the heavy, southbound to eastbound movement
at the IH-820 bridge. It would appear that a significant time savings would be enjoyed by persons who chose
to use this alternative route. The City may wish to publicize this alternative route through traditional media
means they may have at their disposal.

OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS
The changeable lane assignment signs used for southbound lane assignments at the IH-820 bridge are effective,
however, the number of reported accidents prompted a closer examination of this operation. A total of 28 and
18 southbound accidents were noted respectively for 1992 and 1993 at the eastbound frontage road of IH-820
and Rufe Snow Drive which can be related to the variable lane assignment utilized to enhance traffic operations.
It was observed that the two current signs utilize a series of single-point fiber-optic type displays to represent
the permitted turning movements by lane. While the displays can be comprehended by vehicle drivers, it would
appear that alternative means to increase the signs conspicuousness or "target value" would be desirable. New
available technology now provides the potential for much brighter messages to be displayed. Signs are on the
market which utilize light emitting diodes (LED's) which provide an array of lights depicting arrow indications
with the word "only" displayed. These signs are much brighter and more easily seen by drivers. Exhibits 15a
and 1Sh illustrates the existing and recommended sign display. A single sign is recommended to replace the two
existing signs to reduce the observed accident frequency associated with the variable turning movement lane
assignments.

POLICY OPTIONS
31
Exhibit 16 has been prepared which identifies four policy options associated with this study. The options include:
Option I -
Option n -
Option ill -
Option IV -
Maintain existing signalization and geometry at 820 Value Center/Tapp.
Construct a raised median barrier on Rufe Snow Drive from IH-820 to Lewis Drive
and eliminate traffic signalization of 820 Value Center/Tapp.
Pursue investigation and implementation to remove seven feet of sidewalk on the IH-
820 bridge and re-stripe to improve traffic operations on Rufe Snow Drive.
Reconstruct the IH-820 bridge at Rufe Snow Drive. Also, examine the potential of re-
directing TxDOT funds currently programmed for widening Rufe Snow Drive from
four to six lanes to the bridge's reconstruction.
The advantages and disadvantages of each of these options are also identified. The Council may wish to further
explore these options with their staff and take appropriate action.

Policy Options for Access Control
of Rufe Snow Drive
Between IH-820 and Lewis Drive
I
Option I - Maintain existing signalization and geometry at 820 Value Center/Tapp
Advantages
I
I
I
I
I
I
Option II -
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
Least costly to city budget.
·
·
Access is provide for all existing traffic movements.
·
Business interests will feel the city recognizes the need to balance
development activities with reasonable measures to ensure traffic safety.
Disadvantage
·
Potential Citizen perception that 820 Value Center jTapp signal is major cause
of congestion.
·
Citizen may continue to "blame" the 820 Value CenterjTapp signal for traffic
accidents.
Construct a raised median barrier on Rufe Snow Drive IH-820 to Lewis Drive and eliminate
traffic signalization at 820 Value CenterfTapp.
Advantages
· Vehicle conflicts are eliminated, therefore the number of turning movement
related accidents are minimized.
Disadvantages
·
Business interest will feel that the City is not responsive to their needs and
investment in providing funding for the traffic signal installation.
·
Traffic from the 820 Value Center which wishes to return to the north on
Rufe Snow Drive will have a more circuitous route which is not easily
perceived by the vehicle drivers.
·
Traffic accidents and related congestion will not be eliminated. Redirected
traffic demand may transfer the existing accident rate to other locations.
·
Significant expenditure of City funds with no significant increase in roadway
capacity or reduction in accidents on Rufe Snow Drive.
·
V-turns on Rufe Snow Drive will increase causing potentially hazardous situations.
I
I
Option III -
I
Advantages
I
·
I
33
Remove sidewalks and re-stripe the 10-820 bridge at Rufe Snow Drive to improve traffic
operations on Rufe Snow Drive.
Improved Level-of-Service on bridge with minimal costs.
·
Potential short-term solution utilizing existing bridge structure.
·
Relatively low cost compared to bridge replacement.
I
Disadvantages
I
I
I
I
Option IV -
I
I
I
I
I'
I
I
I
I
· Modifying existing structure will require detail structural analysis and
engineering plans.
· Will require approval from TxDOT.
·
TxDOT may not permit modification as a Department Policy.
· Modifications will only improve current LOS F to E.
·
Reduced lane widths will negatively affect truck turning movements on the
bridge.
Reconstruct the 10-820 bridge at Rufe Snow Drive to accommodate existing and future traffic
demand. Examine the potential of re-directing TxDOT funds currently programmed for
widening Rufe Snow Drive from 4 to 6 lanes to the bridge reconstruction.
Advantages
·
The roadway capacity of Rufe Snow Drive will be increased and the level of
congestion will improve with associated improvement in travel time, reduction
in delay and numbers of accidents.
·
It can be demonstrated that the level of congestion currently experienced on
Rufe Snow Drive is the result of the undersized bridge, not the number of
lanes on Rufe Snow Drive. The bridge and its related signal timing is the
"bottleneck" of Rufe Snow Drive.
·
This potential improvement would have a greater benefit cost ratio than
increasing the number of lanes on Rufe Snow Drive.
·
Existing traffic volumes and congestion are easily recognized as a "bottleneck"
by citizens, Council, and transportation engineering community.
·
The budget estimate to construct the needed bridge structures<±-S2.5-S3.0
million) appears to be less than the currently funded Rufe Snow Drive
widening from four to six lanes at a cost of $4.3 million.
I
I
34
Disadvantages
I
·
The improvement must be coordinated with and funding approval obtained
from TxDOT.
I
I
I
·
TxDOT's plans to widen IH-820 over the next..±.. 10 years may be viewed as
requiring the completion of those plans before serious consideration of
constructing the bridge as a separate project.
·
The current plans to widen Rufe Snow Drive has received TxDOT approval
to commence engineering this fiscal year and has been approved by the North
Central Texas Council of Governments (NCfCOG) Regional Transportation
Council. This would have to be revisited which will take time.
