Report on Impact Fees
As you are probably aware, the Planning and Zoning Commission also serves as the Capital
Improvements Advisory Committee which makes recommendations regarding water and sewer impact
fees. According to the Rules and Procedures adopted by the City Council, the Capital Improvements
Advisory Committee is required to submit a semi-annual report to the City Council regarding any
perceived inequities in the implementation of the Capital Improvements Plan or imposing Impact Fees.
At the February 24, 1994 meeting of the Capital Improvements Advisory Committee, a representative
from the Reed-Stowe & Co., consultants employed by the City to assist in compliance with State
Statutes regarding impact fees, discussed the status of the Capital Improvements Fund. A copy of the
consultant's report is attached to this transmittal. In summary, during FY 1993, Impact Fee revenues
totaled $261, 459 with expenditures totaling $120,997. The fund balance at the end ofFY 1993 was
$537,147. The consultant recommended some minor administrative changes which are shown in
Section G, Page 4 of the attached report. These administrative changes have been implemented by the
staff.

Tarrant County Auto Theft Task Force
In February 1993, when permission was sought from the North Richland Hills City
Council to participate in the Grant establishing an Auto Theft Task Force, members of
the Council requested information be provided, permitting them to track the progress of
this group.
The attached seven page report was recently received from Jerry McCurry, Commander
of the Task Force. The report provides the History, Status, and Goals of the Tarrant
County Auto Theft Task Force, statistical information of the first year (March 1993
through February 1994) and a listing of area agencies who have shown cooperation and
support. It is forwarded, in its entirety, in compliance with the request detailed in
paragraph one.

TARRANT COUNTY AUTO THEFT TASK FORCE
History, Status and Goals
March 1994
Tarrant County sponsors a successful multi-agency, inter-jurisdictional
Auto Theft Task Force that actively works to detect, apprehend and
prosecute motor vehicle thieves, prevent the sale of stolen vehicles and
parts, and educate law enforcement, businesses, and the public in auto
theft prevention. The Auto Theft Task Force has investigators drawn
from 11 jurisdictions and the National Insurance Crime Bureau, and a
prosecution staff from the District Attorney's office. This enables Tarrant
County to effectively operate a coordinated and cooperative Auto Theft
Task Force operation among all police agencies within the county.
Tarrant County, with a population of approximately 1.2 million citizens is
comprised of 36 cities with populations ranging from 800 to 450,000
citizens. Before the Auto Theft Task Force was formed, only the cities of
Fort Worth and Arlington, representing about 60 percent of the
population, had full time auto theft units. Fort Worth, representing about
37 percent of the population, was the only city with commercial auto
theft teams which regulated businesses capable of buying stolen vehicle
parts, and which targeted career auto thieves and organized criminal
activity. The Texas Department of Public Safety had a small contingent
of auto theft investigators stationed in Hurst. Their responsibilities also
included several counties in north and west Texas. Minimal emphasis
was placed upon enforcement and even less upon prosecution. Jury trials
for auto thieves were rare.
As a result of this situation, the auto theft rate in Tarrant County rose
dramatically, peaking in 1991 at 19,491 offenses. In 1992 our
governmental leaders decided to form a joint enforcement/prosecution
effort. With grant funds from the Automobile Theft Prevention
Authority, the Auto Theft Task Force and the Auto Theft Impact Court
.
were established in March of 1993. The multi-agency task force uses
an interlocal agreement which enables the investigators to pursue thieves
throughout the county. If the thieves are located in a neighboring county,
they are followed utilizing members of the task force who possess
statewide authority and with the cooperation of the particular jurisdiction
involved.
Although the task force operates throughout the county, we do not
overlap the efforts of other agencies. In much of the county the task
force is the only agency specializing in auto theft investigations, and in
the cities of Fort Worth and Arlington, the task force bolsters their efforts.
In 1991 the statewide ratios for motor vehicle theft were 1.17 thefts for
every 100 registered vehicles and 944 thefts for every 100,000
population. The Tarrant County ratios were much higher. There were
2.39 thefts for every 100 registered vehicles and 1,659 thefts for every
100,000 population.
.
In 1993, the year in which the task force was initiated, Tarrant County's
motor vehicle thefts plummeted to 10,104 offenses, which is a ratio of
.98 thefts per 100 registered vehicles and 840 thefts per 100,000
population. This is a 33 percent decrease since 1992, which compares
very favorably to the statewide decrease of 14 percent. The 33 percent
decline is 4,975 fewer thefts than 1992 which, at an average of $ 5,200
each, represents a savings of $25.8 million in motor vehicle theft losses.
As the statistics indicate, we have been very effective. However, it is
necessary to maintain and strengthen our efforts. Our large decrease has
merely brought us more in line with the state ratios for 1993 which are
.88 thefts per 100 registered vehicles and 692 thefts per 100,000
population.
Tarrant County's downward trend is continuing into 1994. The cities of
Fort Worth and Arlington accounted for approximately 80 percent of
T arrant County's auto theft offenses in 1993. For the months of January
and February 1994 they have recorded 13 percent and 11 percent
declines respectively from the same period in 1993.

.
.
.
.
During the first twelve months of operation we concentrated upon three
areas of enforcement: auto parts businesses, professional thieves and
chop-shops. By enforcing the Salvage Dealer Law we are attempting to
reduce the market for stolen vehicle parts. During this same period, task
force prosecutors actively prosecuted habitual auto thieves and earnestly
attacked the backlog of pending auto theft cases. Our statistics
demonstrate the high level of. activity in these areas. Our personnel are
experienced, dedicated professionals.
The task force was instrumental in Tarrant County in the revitalization of
regularly scheduled motor vehicle theft intelligence meetings in
conjunction with Dallas County agencies. We are striving to become the
center of vehicle theft intelligence in Tarrant County. We are expanding
our efforts to identify professional thieves and in lending assistance to
local agencies in appropriate cases.
The task force closely monitors the motor vehicle theft rate in each
jurisdiction within the county. It stands ready to assist at the first
indication of any significant increase. The task force conducts numerous
investigations in conjunction with other law enforcement agencies within
Tarrant County and in neighboring counties.
The task force has received tremendous. support, not only from the
county's law enforcement agencies, but from many .governmental,
business and civic. organizations throughout the county.
The task force is governed locally by a nine-member Board of Governors
consisting of the Tarrant County Sheriff as Chairman, the Tarrant County
District Attorney, six Chiefs of Police representing a cross section of cities
with varying populations, and the Regional Commander of the Texas
D.P.S. Motor Vehicle Theft Service. Collectively they possass many
hours of administrative, legal, and law enforcement experience.
Our local Board of Governors and participating Administrations continually
evaluate the program using:

Additionally, the task force supervisors are continually monitoring the
organization internally and are recommending modifications as needed, to
insure our continued success.

./ , " Subject: Schedule for Park Revenue Bond Sale
At the March 12 City Council Workshop, a revised Park and Recreation Facilities
Development Capital Improvements Budget was presented. In that revised budget we
identified the need to sell $3,895,000 in Park Revenue Bonds. The bond sale proceeds
are needed in the 1993-94 fiscal year, therefore requiring a bond sale this summer.
A Schedule of Events for the required steps in the sale of these Revenue Bonds is
attached for your information. In the last State Legislative Session, the Legislature added
requirements for a public hearing and a publication of Notice of the Hearing for projects
that are to be financed from sales tax proceeds such as the ones that are identified in the
needed $3,895,000 bond sale. Dates for the Public Hearing and Notice of the Public
Hearing are incorporated into the proposed Schedule of Events.
.
The Bond Rating meetings with Standard & Poors and Moodys are proposed for June 23
and 24. Bids are proposed to be received on July 11 and then the Bonds would be
delivered August 9.
The Park and Recreation Facilities Development Corporation Board will be required to
hold the Public Hearings and receive the bids, and Council will be required to ratify the
Board's action.
After you review this schedule, if there are any questions or suggestions, please let us
know.

Flood Plain Administration
The Federal Emergency Management Association (FEMA) and the Texas Water Commission began
a rating system for Flood Plain Administration in 1990. The Community Rating System (CRS) is a
national program intended to recognize communities which are members of the National Flood
Insurance Program. In addition, the CRS recognizes excellence within the program by awarding
insurance discounts to the citizens owning property within the community.
The Public Works Department entered North Richland Hills into the program in 1990. The City
received a 10 rating in 1991, as did all cities which applied. In 1992 North Richland Hills was
upgraded to a 9. This was based on the Flood Plain Administration policies already in effect. This
rating entitled all flood insurance policy holders within North Richland Hills to receive a 5 %
discount. During the last two years Public Works has expanded the GIS program to included flood
plains. The City has completed several small drainage projects and a few major projects. Public
Works has processed letters of map revision, made map determinations and put additional flood
plain regulations into effect. These actions, in combination with Council support for restricted
development within flood plains, has earned the City a CRS rating of 8.
Effective October 1, 1994, insurance policies for property within a flood plain will be eligible for an
additional 5 % discount. This means that all policies issued for property within a flood plain may
receive a 10% discount on their premiums. This is equivalent to an estimated City wide savings of
$7,000 annually. As an added bonus, the City's flood plain administration program is now
considered by FEMA to be within the top 17% of the nation.

The Honorable Tommy Brown
Mayor, Town of North Richland Hills.
P.O. Box 18609
North Richland Hills, TX 76180
Dear Mayor Brown:
Congratulations! Your community ha~ been vf.:ri4ied as a CI~ss 8 in the Comm~nity Rating
System (CRS). This means that National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) policies issued or
renewed for properties in the Special Flood Hazard Areas (srHAs) beginning October 1.
1994. will receive a 10 percent premium discount. Y'JUI community has few peers in the
nation. as only about 17 percent of all CRS applicants have scored better than a Class 9.
This CRS rating and increased premium discount is based on your 1992 modified
application, and is effective October 1. 1994, through September 30, 1995. It should be
noted that policies issued or renewed for properties outside the SFHAs (where Preferred
Risk Policies are available) already reflect discounts based on the reduced risk, and
therefore. they are limited to a 5 percent CRS discount. Please refer to Appendix C in the
Community Ratina System Commentary. Further, all discounts are applied before the
addition of fixed service fees.

Public Hearing to consider an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance No.1 874
regarding Contractor Offices with Shops and Garages. TABLED 2/24/94
Mr. LeBaron stated the Zoning Ordinance only allows this use in Industrial zones.
He stated there are five or six Contractor's Offices with shops and garages located in
the C-2 Commercial district. He stated in order to prevent a potential conflict with
the zoning on the property, staff is suggesting a change in the ordinance to clean this
item up. Mr. LeBaron stated staff also suggests a name change to Contract's Shop
and Yard since that name better describes the type of use in question. He stated the
packet includes a list of the contractors offices and the corresponding zoning district.
Mr. Wilson asked how this amendment would affect those businesses in the C-1
district that have outside storage.
Mr. LeBaron stated the only one in the C-1 district is Ideal Pools, and they have a
variance for that particular use.
Vice-Chairman Barfield asked how this would affect contractors who do not have a
storage yard.
Mr. LeBaron stated they are trying to make a distinction between those contractors
who only have a business or sales office, and those who store equipment or
materials outdoors.
~
Mr. Baxter asked if this would allow a storage yard only.
Mr. LeBaron stated it could, but most have an office or garage on site for security
reasons.
Vice-Chairman Barfield stated the Commission needs to discuss in the future exactly
what a contractor is.
Mr. Baxter made the motion to approve PZ 94-02 with the suggested name change
to Contractor's Shop and/or Yard. The motion was seconded by Mr. Moody, and
the motion carried 6-0.

Appeal Hearing-Public Hearing to consider the request of the
Richland Hills Church of Christ for a Special Use Permit for a Tire
& Battery Sales Store on a portion of Lot 3, Block 25, Snow Heights
Addition. This property is located at 6850 NE Loop 820.
Agenda Number:
PZ 94-05
Ordinance No. 1975
The Richland Hills Church of Christ is the owner ofa lot located at the southwest comer of Vance Road and NE Loop 820. The
church, acting as agent for National Tire Warehouse, submitted a Special Use Permit request for a Tire & Battery Store on the
property. The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this request at its February 10, 1994 meeting. The request was denied by
a 4-2 vote. The City Council approved an appeal request at its February 28, 1994 meeting.
National Tire Warehouse is proposing an 11,138 square foot tire sales and installation business on the property. NTW is providing 36
parking spaces on the lot, as well as a masonry screening wall along the south property line. NTW is also providing a landscaped area
equivalent to 16% of the lot area.
The following concerns were discussed by the Planning and Zoning Commission at its February 10, 1994 meeting:
1. The compatibility of a tire store situated immediately adjacent to a single family residential neighborhood was in question. The
two existing businesses in the area are office uses (a bank and an insurance office), and are located in buildings that resemble the
appearance of a residential structure.
-
Notices of this Public Hearing were sent to individual property owners within 200-feet of the property under consideration.
2. The location of an overhead door on the south side of the proposed building would allow noise from exiting vehicular traffic and
noise from the air guns to disturb the adjacent residences.
A petition in opposition to the request was submitted to the City on March 23, 1994. According to Section 212.006 of the Texas
Local Government Code, if a change is protested through a written document signed by the owners of at least 20-percent of the
property within the 200-foot notification area, the affirmative vote of at least three-fourths of the City Council is required for the
change to take effect. The staff has reviewed the petition and determined that the petition satisfies this requirement. An affinnative
vote of 6 members of the City Council is required for this request to be approved.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council hold the required Public Hearing and consider the recommendation of the Planning and
Zoning Commission.

Mr. Muncie stated his main objection is noise. He stated he would rather see an
office-type use.
Mr. Gene Hicks, 6909 Corona Drive, came forward to speak. He stated he has
lived in the city for 40 years. He stated the proposed use is not appropriate for the
property. He stated he would rather see offices on the property.
Mr. Bowen asked where the entrances to the work area was located on the building.
He asked what the overhead door on the rear was for.
Mr. Rusty Spiars, engineer for the project, came forward to speak. He stated the
main entrance is on the front. He stated the requirements regarding screening have
been met. He stated no work is performed outdoors.
Mr. Bowen stated if the overhead door on the back is open, it will tunnel the noise
right into the neighborhood.
Mr. Spiars stated the purpose of the screening wall is to abate the noise.
Mr. Wilson asked if there is a decibel level for noise in the C-l and C-2 Commercial
districts.
Mr. LeBaron stated yes.
Mr. Wilson stated he thinks the level is supposed to drop off at night.
e
Mr. LeBaron stated the departm~nt has a decibel meter and can test and check
decibel levels.
Mr. Spiars stated they will comply with the ordinances and requirements of the city.
Chairman Brock stated this item will go onto the Council on February 28th.
There was general discussion regarding the masonry screening wall.
Mr. Moody stated since this is a Special Use Permit, the Commission has the
authority to require removing the rear door to mitigate the noise levels. He stated
he did not know if this is feasible.
Mr. Spiars stated he would have to consult with the architects on the project
regarding removing the rear door.
Mr. Bowen stated the door could be relocated to the side of the building on Vance
Road.
Mr. Spiars asked how the noise is monitored.
Chairman Brock stated enforcement officers check the site periodically.
Mr. DeOtte stated the threshold for noise could be based on existing NTW sites or
similar sites.
e
Mr. Pence stated the current ordinance allows 60 decibels on the A scale from 7
a,m. to 10 p.m., and from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. the maximum allowed is 55 decibels.

February 10, 1994
e
Mr. Bowen stated he thought there were more restrictions on the property than there
actually were. He stated he thought the intent of the Council was to allow offices
and similar types of development.
Mr. Wilson stated he is not sure whether this use can meet the decibel levels or not.
Mr. Spiars asked where the decibel readings are taken.
Mr. Husband stated at the property line.
Mr. LeBaron stated the numbers mentioned in the ordinance, combined with
experience with other sites, may indicate a problem with noise from this site. He
stated the levels mentioned are not very high.
Mr. Pence stated from some of the testing they have done, the persons at this
meeting are probably speaking at 70 decibels.
Chairman Brock stated this item çould be tabled until the next meeting to look at the
other NTW sites around the area.
Mr. Barfield stated that staff should go out and test the site as it is now and set that as
the level that must be met after the business goes in. He stated that way they are not
increasing the amount of noise.
-
Mr. DeOtte requested that the case be approved contingent upon those
requirements and submitted to Council at the next meeting.
There was general discussion regarding the zoning on the property.
Ms. Jeanann Benefiel, 7000 Corona Drive, came forward to speak. She stated she
can see this property from her front yard. She stated her concern about noise. Ms.
Benefiel stated the pattern of development along the frontage road is offices with a
residential character. She stated a tire store is inappropriate for the character and
aesthetics of the area. She stated her concern over high traffic volumes. She stated
there are other areas better suited for this type of use.
Mr. Charles Owen, representing the Church of Christ, came forward to speak. He
stated this property was originally zoned multi-family. He stated they rezoned the
property C-l Commercial, and some restrictions were placed on the property. Mr.
Owen stated a screening wall was required, and they were allowed certain types of
uses on the property. He stated he has visited the NTW site in Irving. He stated
NTW is regulated by the federal government on how much noise they can generate
for the employees benefit. He requested the case be approved and submitted to
Council.
Ms. Benefiel appeared before the Commission again. She stated the area in Irving is
a very commercial area that does not abut a residential area. She stated commercial
development is not appropriate for this area. She stated she would prefer office type
developments in that area.
e
Mr. Spiars stated NTW would like to locate in North Richland Hills. He stated they
knew the requirements before going in, and all the plans for the project are nearly
complete.
There being no one else wishing to speak, Chairman Brock closed the Public
Hearing.

Planning and Inspections _ Council Meeting Date:
4/25/94
Public Hearing to consider amending Ordinance No. 1182 Agenda Number:
to remove the zoning restrictions on Lots IR and 2R, Richland
Oaks Addition. This property is located in the 8200 block of
Bedford-Euless Road.
PZ 94-07
Ordinance No. 1983
In April 1985, the City Council approved a zoning change from R-I Single Family Residential to C-I Commercial on several existing
lots in the Richland Oaks addition. The lots were replatted and are now the site of the Old Towne Square shopping center and the Pier
I Imports store.
As part of the approval of the zoning change (Ordinance No. 1182), several stipulations were required by the City Council. The
stipulations included landscaping along Strummer Drive, fencing on the west and north side of the property, and not allowing curb
cuts onto Strummer Drive.
The City is currently in the process of acquiring right-of-way to widen Strummer Drive from a two lane to a five lane road. With the
changing characteristics of this area, it appears that consideration should be given to remove the stipulations previously imposed when
the property was rezoned in 1985. Removal of the stipulations will allow for better vehicular circulation, improve traffic safety and
enhance the development potential of the adjacent properties. Attached is a copy of Page 3 of Ordinance No. 1182 which shows the
stipulations at the bottom of the page.
The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this item at their April 14, 1994 meeting and recommended approval.
RECOMMENDATION:
-It is recomm,nded that th, City Conncil hnld th, required Puhlic H,aring and considor th, recommendation of th, Planning and

Homebuyer Program - Resolution No. 94-15
Council Meeting Date: 4/25/94
Agenda Number:..GN 94-38
The Tarrant County Housing Finance Corporation is in the process of
implementing a First Time Homebuyer Program for the citizens of Tarrant
County. Bonds are being sold to originate loans within Tarrant County
proper. A resolution must be approved by a city with a population over
20,000 before homes in that municipality can be purchased with this special
bond money.
This program assists first time home buyers within certain income levels
with FHA financed purchases of homes up to $67,700. The program includes
lower interest rates and assistance with a portion of the down payment and
closing cost. The City can designate "market areas" that will increase the
level of participation from the County. These "market areas" will be
identified in separate documents that will be forwarded to the County and
will target neighborhoods that should have homes for sale within the target
price range.
The approval of this resolution does not obligate the City to any financial
participation.
_Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Council approve Resolution No.94-15,
authorizing participation in this program.

Agenda Number:
GN 94-39
The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) has responded to the City's request to lower the

terms of Station Numbers. Staff has added the street block numbers for clarity and ease of
administration.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends the Council approve Ordinance No. 1980.

Subject: Approval of Utility Easement on Park Property at Little Bear Cre~~enda Number: GN 94-41
Centex Real Estate Corporation is requesting a 15' water line easement adjacent to and
parallelling the western property line of the 40 acre tract of parkland located on the south side of
future North Tarrant Parkway, west of Smithfield Road, in the far northwest corner of the city.
Centex is developing a site southwest of the park site, immediately west of the North Richland
Hills City Limits. In order to bring water to their site, the developer is requesting the necessary
utility easement across the park property. In exchange for granting the easement, Centex is
offering to pay $5,000 for the proposed easement, which contains approximately .36 acres.
The easement does not pose any potential liability to either the long range development of the
park or the future construction of North Tarrant Parkway. The $5,000 can be directed to the Park
CIP for improvements to this park or other park sites.
RECOMMENDATION
It is requested that City Council approve granting the 15' utility easement adjacent to the western
property line of the Little Bear Creek Park site to Centex Real Estate Corporation as proposed.

City of North Richland Hills

Reference: Possible Waterline Easement
Dear Bill:
_
As you requested, the following recapsulizes some of the discussion we had last
week on the park site you control at the Western City Limits south of future
Wilson Lane (North Tarrant Parkway). I am representing Centex Real Estate
Corporation In thIs request. They are trying to develop a site southwest of your
park site and we are their engineer. The southern line of your tract, extended
west Into Keller Is their northern line. The proposed development Is in Keller,
immediately west of the North Rlchland Hills city limits.
We have been working for many months to obtain water service to our site. We
discussed the possibility of your city serving our site with Greg Dickens. He saw
no problem with the arrangement since North Rlchland Hills already has a water
system surrounding thIs site. The process Greg stated requires the City of Keller
to request service from North Richland Hills. Omcials at Keller were not willing to
pursue this optIon.
The next option we pursued was to obtain an easement from the property north
of our site (west of and adjacent to your west property line). The property.'ôwl1er
Is not very well versed In development and after several months trying, we have
come to a dead end.
e
Now I come to the reason we are contacting you. We want to discuss the
possibility of you (and the City) granting a 15 foot wide easement at the far west
sIde of your site. The land will stili be owned by your City and will still be
useable for all park uses you require. The waterline easement would be
dedicated to Keller so they can maintain the waterline In the future. The waterline
will be installed deep enough to allow any trail system or park facility Installation
without conflict Qust as if it were a North Rlchland Hills waterline). A temporary
construction easement would be needed only during construction of the waterline.

Because the time spent negotiating the first two options has been so lengthly, we
are eager to resolve this problem quickly. In order to expedite this request and
to compensate the City of North Rlchland Hills for the encumbrance of this small
portion (0.36 acres) of the park site, Centex Real E$tate Corporation Is offering to
pay $5.000 for the proposed easement. I am sure the park development could
use these funds for maintenance of existing parks or Improvements to existing
park land.
Please call me as soon as you have come to a decision or if I or a Centex
representative need to discuss this with your further.

.partment: Community Services Department
Contract Mowing Program and Reassignment of
Subject: P~rh and Puhlic Grounds Division Employees
Council Meeting Date: 4/25/94
Agenda Number: GN 94-42
Included in the currently approved Parks and Recreation Facility Development Capital Improvement Program
is funding within Park Operations and Special Services for implementation of contract mowing for rights-of-
way, thereby allowing the reassignment of two Parks and Public Grounds Division employees in an effort to
assist with maintenance of new parkland and facilities.
Currently, right-of-way mowing is performed by two full-time personnel in the Public Grounds Division. It
is requested that right-of-way mowing be contracted, in an effort to increase productivity and provide the
ability to maintain a better level of service in a more cost effective manner. This will allow the two employees
maintaining rights-of-way to be reassigned to work within the Parks Division to offset the existing shortfall
in man-hours and the increased maintenance due to the new facilities developed through the Capital
Improvement Program.
SUMMARY OF CURRENT ORGANIZATION
lit Two full time employees perform street right-{)f-way maintenance at a cost of $59,809. Additionally,
three part-time seasonal employees work solely on right-of-way mowing.
[it
Under the current organization, rights-{)f-way are generally mowed every 6 to 8 weeks on a complaint
basis due to lack of personnel to meet the workload.
e
liI
The Parks and Public Grounds Divisions are understaffed with a 38 % shortfall in man-hours, which
will be substantially reduced by the proposed contract mowing of rights-of-way. Compounding this
shortfall, additional areas of responsibilities include new park maintenance needs, and new landscape
responsibilities such as Bedford-Euless Road.
RESOLVED BENEFITS
lit Contract mowing costs for rights-of-way, including weed eradication, are estimated at $48,293,
offering a savings of approximately $11,546.
iii Contract mowing will provide a noticeably higher level of service with necessary mowing at a lower
cost. Medians and rights-{)f-way will be classified according to visibility, with an appropriate mowing
frequency which varies from weekly to bi-monthly.
iii The two full time employees currently performing right-of-way mowing will be able to work in the
Parks Division helping to mitigate the man-hour shortfall, thereby increasing productivity and
increasing our level of service; at a cost of $59,809, funded through the Park Operations and Special
Services budget.

CITY OF
NORTH RICHLAND HILLS
Similar contract mowing programs have recently been successfully executed in the cities of Arlington,
Duncanville, Flower Mound, and Grapevine. The increased level of service combined with a substantially
lower cost is the basis for our recommendation for contract mowing of medians and rights-of-way.
Our studies indicate that contract mowing can be accomplished in a more cost effective manner than with city
crews. Our only concern is being able to maintain the desired quality. We recommend trying contract
mowing on a one year trial basis, to be evaluated and reported back to the City Council next spring.
FUNDING
Funding is available in the Parks and Recreation Sales Tax budget.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve contract mowing of rights-of-way, allowing the Parks and
Public Grounds Divisions to reassign the two full time right-of-way maintenance employees to the Parks
Division.

Development of Property Adjacent to
Subject: Ross Road and Davis Boulevard
Council Meeting Date: 4/25/94
Agenda Number: GN 94-43
Tejas Testing Company proposes to build one of the State's emission control testing sites in our City.
The site is bounded by Ross Road on the west, Davis Boulevard on the east and commercial buildings
on the south.
When the post office site was replatted, Ross Road was not improved. Nor was the sewer line extended
to the veterinairian clinic and the fence company. The owners of the proposed development have
requested they be relieved of the obligation of improving Ross Road to City standards.
This proposal has not been submitted to the Planning & Zoning Commission because it will be the City
Council's perogative to determine the disposition of Ross Road.
The owners of this property suggested that we close Ross Road, but this is not possible since the fence
company and veterinairian clinic abut this street.
If the Council decides to allow the Tejas Texas site to be developed while leaving Ross Road in its
present condition, this property will be submitted for platting.
Recommendation:
It is recommended that City Council consider the request of the developer and owners for development
of the site without being required to improve Ross Road.

Ratify Contract for Inspection Services on
Subject: Rehabilitating Watauga 2 0 MG Ground Storage Tank Agenda Number: PW 94-13
and Bursey Road 2.0 MG Elevated Storage Tank
The subject projects were awarded by Council on February 14, 1994 as PW 94-04 and PW 94-02,
respectively. The repair and repainting projects will require inspection procedures our current
construction inspection staff cannot provide.
Our previous construction inspector who mainly inspected these tank painting projects is now the new
Utility Superintendent. Public Works has recently hired a new construction inspector who has not
received the training to make the inspections this will require. ICR Consulting Company Inc. can
provide the inspection for these projects for less than $8,000. They will bill the City based on a rate of
$26.00 per hour and $0.28 per mile for travel to and from the job site.
Staff has hired ICR to provide the inspection services for both projects.

Re: Letter of Engagenent
Dær Greg:
Enclosed is a letter of engagerœnt for the Quality Assurance Program
for cleaning am priming the ground and elevated water storage tanks
for the City of North Richland Hills.
.
Oœ copy is to be signed by an authorized person on behalf of North
Richland Hills and returned to IŒ. A self addressed, starcped
envelope is enclosed for your convenience. The other copy is for your
records .
Each tank has approximately 30,000 square feet of interior, wet
surface. Average production rates for abrasive blasting and
application of the prime coat canpute to 436 hours required for oœ
craftsperson. Based on utilizing four abrasive blasters and two
coating applicators on each tank the time required wood be
approximately 139 hours, or 3.5 weeks. Although both tanks will be
doœ concurrently, allowance should be added to the time required for
delays. The time required will probably be 4 to 5 weeks. Based on
this time estimate, the cost of inspection should not eKceed
$5,500.00.
Your business is appreciated. If you have any qæstions please call.

Approve Reallocating Bond Funds from
Little Bear Creek Culvert Improvements on
Davis Boulevard (FM 1938)
Council Meeting Date:
4/25/94
Subject:
Agenda Number:
PW 94-14
The Little Bear Creek Culvert Improvements on FM 1938 is a 1985 Bond Election project whose
budget was established at $260,000 by Council action on February 22, 1993 with GN 93-25. The
project was to pay for the oversizing of the Texas Department of Transportation's (TxDOT) 25-year
design frequency to a 1oo-year design frequency on all three cross drainage structures. These structures
are to be built with the State's FM 1938 Street and Drainage Improvements from Starnes/Rumfield
Road north to North Richland Hills northern city limits.
Staff has contacted the upstream property owners affected by the proposed larger structures which
would allow a 1oo-year frequency storm runoff to pass under the new highway without overtopping the
road. Since the upstream properties affected are vacant and in the 1OO-year FEMA designated flood
plain, staff has requested the owners pay the additional cost required to install the l00-year design
versus the typical 25-year TxDOT design. This includes cost of structure, engineering, and any
additional easements required.
The upstream property owners have responded to the certified mail notification with either no response
or a decision to not participate in the funding of the oversizing. The affected property owners are listed
below:
· Tributary LB-1
· Little Bear Creek -
· Tributary LB-2
Herman Smith
Camp Fire Girls
John Barfield and Owen D. Long
It is staffs opinion the $260,000 can be reallocated to the Unspecified Drainage CIP Fund Balance and
allow the State to proceed with their normal 25-year storm frequency design which will not cause any
lOO-year flooding to existing houses, but will allow runoff to overtop the proposed highway when a
greater than 25-year frequency storm occurs.
Funding Source: Reallocate funds as shown below:
From: Little Bear Creek Culvert Oversizing
To: Unspecified Drainage CIP Fund Balance
$260,000
$260,000
Recommendation: It is recommended Council consider reallocation of funds as shown and authorize the
close out of the subject project budget.

Mr. Gregory W. Dickens, P.E.
Director of Public Works
City of North Richland Hills
P.O. Box 820609
North Richland Hills, Texas 76182
Subject: FM 1938 From 2.4 Mi. S. of FM 1709 To Rumfield Road
Dear Mr. Dickens:
The city of North Richland Hills has expressed its desire to
upgrade cross-drainage structures on FM 1938, from TxDOT' s 25-year
design frequency, to a 100-year design frequency.
The Department is agreeable to such an upgrade, subject to the
following:
_
1. We are concerned that the size of culverts for 100-year
flows, as recommended in the 1991 Knowlton-English-Flowers
report, may pose problems with channelization at the upstream
and downstream ends of the culverts, as we attempt to match
existing conditions. At Little Bear Creek, particularly, the
channel would need to transition from 150' wide at the culvert
to a natural channel only 20 + / - in width. It is our
experience that such wide channels, when the flow is
intermittent, tend to develop maintenance problems.
2. The easement needs for channel work will be considerably
greater than for the plan proposed by TxDOT. If the City
wishes to pursue the 100-year design, the additional easement
costs will also have to be borne by the City.
3. The proposed 25-year culverts at tributaries LB-l and LB-2,
as described in the K-E-F report, do not agree with those in
the current TxDOT plan. In order to avoid utility conflicts,
it will be necessary for any culverts used to be the same
depth of box as those shown on the attached sheets. The City
may wish to have the K-E-F report amended to reflect the
current TxDOT design.
_
4. Based on the current TxDOT design, those recommended by K-
E-F, and using current TxDOT bid price data, we estimate the
construction cost differences as follows:

If the City is agreeable to paying the cost differences, we will
need the following items, in order to complete our plans:
1. structure Layout sheets for each of the culverts to be upgraded,
in a format similar to TxDOT structure layout sheets (samples
attached).
2. Hydraulic Data (THYSYS output) to support the design of the
proposed culvert structures.
_
3. Channel Layout sheets for the approach and outfall channels,
with grading details as needed to ensure smooth, efficient
transitions to the natural stream channels, and calculations of
earthwork volumes necessary for the channel improvements.
4. A layout of drainage easement requirements for the proposed
channel improvements, so that our right-of-way map can be updated,
and the easements acquired in a timely manner.
This project is currently scheduled for letting in November, 1994;
therefore, the above items are needed in this office no later than April
1, 1994.
If you have any questions concerning this matter, or to arrange a
meeting to discuss the subject project, contact Mr. John A. Terry, P.E.,
at (817) 370-6598.

Re: 3-367, CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS,
HIGHTOWER DRIVE BOX CULVERT IMPROVEMENTS,
CONTRACTOR'S PARTIAL PAY ESTIMATE NO.6 & FINAL
Enclosed is one copy of Contractor's Partial Pay Estimate No.6 and Final, dated April 8,
1994, made payable to Humphrey & Morton Construction Co., Inc. in the amount of
$13,224.75, for materials furnished and work performed on the referenced project as of
November 30, 1993.
. The quantities and condition of the project have been verified on-site by your representative,
Mr. Ken Matheson, as indicated by his signature dated April 6, 1994, on the estimate, and
we have checked the item extensions and additions.
The following is a summary to the final project status:
TOTAL CONTRACT PERCENT
BREAKDOWN THIS MONTH EARNINGS AMOUNT COMPLETE
IIncl. Retainagel (TE/CAI
Paving $0.00 $68,219.40 $74,961.07 91.01

TOTALS $0.00 $264,494.99 $283,530.88 93.29
TIME (Calendar Days) * 182 150 121.33
.
The original contract amount was $283,530.88, and Contractor earnings total $264,494.99
based on as-built quantities and contract unit prices. Contractor earnings are, therefore,
$19,035.89 under the Contract Amount. The savings results primarily from top soil and
seeding work which was deleted from the contract; unused contingency fund allowances; and
other minor field changes. (*) The Contract Completion date was October 29, 1993, based
on a 150 Calendar Day completion time, but we understand that the contractor was
substantially complete on August 7, 1993, which is well within the required contract period.

Sanitary Sewer Repair
Council Meeting Date: 4/25/94
Agenda Number: PAY 94-07
Late in 1993 and again early in 1994, the Public Works staff became aware of a sewer outflow into a
storm drain off Bellehurst Court which was discharging into Big Fossil Creek. After initial
investigation with our sewer TV camera and digging up a small portion of the suspect 6-inch sewer
main, we decided the problem could more quickly and safely be handled by a private contractor set up
to do this kind of work. The portion of the sewer where we were having problems was 18 to 20 feet
deep. This was an area between Bellehurst Court and the BISD Service Center on Broadway Drive.
The contractor, M-Co Construction, located in North Richland Hills has completed the repair work in
accordance with our agreement with them. They have relaid 138 feet of 6-inch sewer, poured an 18-
foot deep manhole, repaired a sewer lateral and helped us relay a portion of the storm drain which was
not properly laid next to the sanitary sewer line.
Funding Source:
To insure Public Works does not run short in their Operating Budget (Sanitary Sewer Maintenance
account), staff is requesting payment be made from 1992 Miscellaneous Capital Projects (02-92-10-
6000) .
Recommendation:
Staff recommends Council approve payment of $13,564 to M-Co Construction, Inc. for emergency
sewer repairs and authorize funding from 1992 Miscellaneous Capital Projects.
