This will continue to be a problem because of the volume of water through the course after heavy rains. The attached letter details a solution for the three most pressing areas. We have given RSL permission to move forward with this program. Iron Horse has exceeded budget projections the first three months of this year.

"', ., ~-' A Golf Course Management Company January 4~ 1993 Mr. C.A Sanford, Assistant City Manager City of North Rich1and Hills 7301 North East Loop 820 North Richland Hills, Texas 76180 Dear C.A: As we discussed last week, the erosion control issues at Iron Horse are a top priority. We have explored a variety of options to solve the most pressing problems at the "Trestle. II at number 10 green, and at the low water crossing on both sides of the creek at number 17. Originally, Olden bid over $70,000 for gabion work; but after reviewing options carefully, we believe that the best solution has been proposed by J. Ronald Knight & Associates. Knight has proposed R-Rap walls, such as those you have seen at Colonial and Prestonwood Country Clubs. They will use a kiln-baked sand and concrete mix, biodegradable bags. and filter fabric behind the wall to relieve hydraulic pressures and to trap the soil. Steel and Geo-Grid will also be installed to ensure proper strength and a two-bag tow will be connected to the front of the wall to prevent undennining. Unlike Olden1s, Knightls proposal includes all necessary fill as well as materials, equipment, and labor for the job. Other options we explored included Ties and Rip Rap walls, Gabions by another firm, and shorter-tenn solutions. But we believe this is the best value for the money today and over the long tenn. It is virtually costless to maintain, it looks goo~ and it is effective. Mer negotiating with Knight & Associates, we have arrived at a price of $47, 711 for all four areas. This is $~ 711 more than was originally budgeted for gabion work because the problem today is much worse than when we received bids last year, but is $23,000 less than gabions. We propose to fund the work as follows: · Contribute the $25,000 originally budgeted for gabion work · Delay restroom tile replacement and cart path improvements, using the $10,000 to fund erosion controls. · Use $12,711 trom operating revenues for this project. 9696 Skillman.

For November, actual net income exceeded budget by nearly $7.,000, and although Our December numbers are not yet compiled, we know that revenues were right at budget and we believe that expenses should be below budget. Although we realize that we are more successful versus budget in some months than in others, we feel comfortable using part of the excess achieved in the first quarter to complete the erosion control work. We do expect to use RSL funds for the work; and unless we have terrific weather, we will be drawing on RSL funds per our new contract for cash flow purposes this month. Please call me if you have any questions. We plan to begin inunediately after we receive your approvaJ. Very Truly Yours, Copy to: Rodger Line :Mitch Harrell Rodnie Bennea I· I. I I I I I I I I.

He stated Council ma equire it no matter what the Commission does because they are ada nt about sidewalks. Mr. Lueck stated ouncil has made their views known about sidewalks. Vice-Chairman Barfie asked if the developer had agreed to construct Smithfield Road along unplatted property. Mr. Perkins stated yes. Vice-Chairman Barfield asked t t they work with the staff on the sidewalk. Mr. Perkins asked if the masonry fen would be required across the front of the unplatted property.

Walker Survey, Abstract 1653, from its present zoning classification of 1-1 Light Industrial and C-2 Commercial to OC Outdoor Commercial. This property is located on the west side of Grapevine Highway, across from the TCJC Northeast Campus. Vice-Chairman Barfield opened the Public Hearing and called for those wishing to speak to come forward at this time. Mr. Mark Howe, Colleyville, came forward to represent Mr. McCauley and Ms. Thornton. He stated they are requesting the change to accommodate their plans of a batting cage and driving range on the property. He presented a layout of the property to the Commission. He stated the layout is a preliminary concept plan, with the driving range being the first phase. He stated the property is surrounded by multi- I Ie I I I I I I I -- I I I I I I ,I .- I I PZ Minutes - Page 5 10 December 92 family and commercial zoning. Mr. Howe stated they intend to keep as many trees as possible on the property. Mr. Lueck asked if there were any plans for lighting the development. Mr. Howe stated there would be lighted areas for the tee boxes and the parking areas. Mr. McCauley, 412 Stonehenge Drive, Hurst came forward to speak. He stated the lighting at the tee boxes would be of sufficient candle power to light the entire driving range. He stated if other lighting was necessary, it would be ground lighting. Mr. Howe stated they liked the sight because the trees act as a natural barrier to any stray light. Vice-Chairman Barfield asked if they have addressed the easement on the channel. Mr. Howe stated they intend to dedicate the area within the flood plain on the preliminary and final plat to a flood plain easement to the City. Vice-Chairman Barfield asked Mr. LeBaron if they wanted a uniform easement or if they should let the boundaries follow the flood plain. Mr. LeBaron stated those are issues that will be worked out before the Commission sees the preliminary plat. Mr. Howe stated they intend to plat the property into two lots, to be final platted in two stages. Vice-Chairman Barfield asked Mr. LeBaron what the policy was regarding the drainage channel. Mr. LeBaron stated it would be paid for by the developer. Vice-Chairman Barfield stated they would need some sort of covenant in place if the developer did not improve the channel. Mr. LeBaron stated part of the equation would be if that channel is part of the drainage improvement plan. He stated he was not sure if this channel was part of it. Mr. Howe stated they would not be changing any grades in the flood plain for two reasons: 1) it would require the removal of many trees, and 2) there would be no increase run-off of water due to the nature of the driving range. He stated higher uses such as residential subdivisions or office uses would cause increased run-off that would necessitate the improvement of the channel. Vice-Chairman Barfield asked Mr. Howe if they had a problem with signing a covenant. Mr. Howe stated no. There being no one else wishing to speak in regards to this request, Vice-Chairman Barfield closed the Public Hearing. I Ie I I I I I I I -- I I I I I I I I" I PZ Minutes - Page 6 1 0 December 92 Mr. Wilson asked if there would be any screening fence requirements since part of this land abuts a multi-family district. Mr. LeBaron stated yes it will. Mr. Wilson asked if that is the only place it will be required. Mr. LeBaron stated yes. Vice-Chairman Barfield stated that the zoning application does not appear to go along with the Master Plan. He stated the plan is intended to be flexible. He stated if they do approve this request, they will need to modify their Plan accordingly. Mr. Miller asked for an explanation of the covenant. Vice-Chairman Barfield stated the applicant would agree to a covenant that would require them to pay their share of the channel improvements if the channel does eventually get improved. He stated that would be part of the final plat. Mr. Miller made the motion to approve PZ 92-37. The motion was seconded by Mr. Wilson, and the motion carried 6-0. Mr. Bowen asked if they need a motion to amend the Master Plan. Mr. LeBaron stated that it would be appropriate to incorporate that into the motion as part of the recommendation to the City Council. Mr. Miller amended his motion to amend the Master Plan in accordance to this request. The amended motion was seconded by Mr. Wilson, and the motion carried 6-0. STAFF REPORT Mr. LeBaron stated that this will be the only meeting this month due the Christmas holidays. He stated they encouraged all developer: ith projects in the works to get them before the Commission at the Ime if they could. Mr. LeBaron stated the revisions to the Zoning Ordi ce are almost complete, and a draft copy will be sent to the C ission in the next few weeks. He stated they can schedule a shop in mid-January to go over the ordinance. Mr. LeBaron stated the zoni ap is being converted over to the Geographic Information tern. He stated staff has been editing the map to make sure' . consistent with the map the Commission is currently usin e stated one of the advantages to that is the map can be kept c nt after any changes are made. He stated they are trying to wor the details to put together a joint workshop with the Council in January.

THOROUGHFARE PLAN: Access to this property is from Grapevine Highway, classified as a P6D roadway: a Principal Arterial, 6-lane, divided thoroughfare. LAND USE MASTER PLAN: The Land Use Plan for the City recommends low density residential development in this area; therefore, the request is not in conformance to the plan. However, should the Commission determine this use is appropriate and recommend approval of the request, appropriate language can be inserted into the adopting ordinance to include an amendment to the Land Use Plan. I Ie I I I I I I I -- I I I I I I I Ie !I ZONING HISTORY According to past zoning maps, the subject property was zoned AG Agriculture until sometime between late 1969 and early 1970, when the zoning was changed to Multi-Family and Local Retail, the zones splitting the property. No case file was found referencing this change. When the map was revised in 1984, the Local Retail portion of the property became C-1 Commercial, and remained split with Multi-Family. The present zoning was put in place in 1986 (PZ 86-41 and PZ 86-42) due to a request by College Hill Joint Venture. The request changed the zoning on the northwest corner to 1-1 Light Industrial, and the remainder of the property to C-2 Commercial. PLATTING HISTORY: The property is currently unplatted. The developer will be submitting a preliminary plat that should come before the Commission for review during the month of January. :r--i- . . __ 1524- -.

This property is located west of Davis Boulevard, north of Shady Grove Road. Agenda Number: PS 92-17 Steeple Ridge Joint Venture has submitted a Final Plat for a 15.456 acre tract of land located west of Davis Boulevard and north of Shady Grove Road. This is the last plat of a three phase single family residential development situated in the extreme northern portion of the city. This development is zoned R-2 and contains 52 residential lots. During the review of this Final Plat, there were concerns by the Public Works Department regarding the 13 foot depth of some of the sewer line services along the western portion of the development. However, this issue has been resolved after the developer agreed to encase the services in concrete to prevent damage to the sewer line from external sources. The developer has satisfied the minimum requirements of the Subdivision Regulations and has agreed to all engineering comments. The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this Final Plat at the November 12, 1992 meeting and approved the Final Plat as presented provided that the sewer line issue was resolved prior to the Final Plat going on the City Council adgenda.

Request of Steeple Ridge Joint Venture for a Final Plat of Steeple Ridge Phase III. This property is located west of Davis Boulevard, north of Shady Grove Road. Mr. Dick Perkins, of Teague, Nail and Perkins. 915 Florence Street. Ft. Worth, came forward to speak. He stated he was here to answer any questions the Commission might have. Vice-Chairman Barfield stated that all items have been agreed to with the exception of the depth of the sewer line along Saddle Ridge Trail and Trails Edge Drive. Mr. LeBaron stated that Staff would like to add one additional comment that the side yard on Lot 32. Block 2 be changed to 20-feet. He stated that it would give the lot the same building width as the rest of the lots. Mr. Perkins stated he had no objections to that. Mr. LeBaron stated they are trying to give more consideration to corner lots than have been given in the past. Vice-Chairman Barfield stated that the 12-foot deep sewer line on the north side is one that the City does not have the equipment to service, and that any problems that might come up. the City would have to contract out to get it fixed. He stated his recommendation is that this issue be resolved between City Staff and his company in such a way that would be agreeable to each of them. He stated the Commission is not qualified to make an engineering decision. Vice-Chairman Barfield I I. I I I I I I I I- I I I I I I I - I I PZ Minutes - Page 2 '2 November 92 stated that there are some 12-foot deep lines in the City, and there are problems with those. but it would be foolish to continue to add sewer lines that cause problems with the City. Mr. Moody stated he agreed completely. He stated that at some point. a change is necessary in order to not create new problems. He stated the problem would have to be worked out between City Staff and Mr. Perkins. Mr. Moody stated the Commission is not qualified to make a decision on that particular point. Mr. Perkins stated that the line is in, and that adding another line would not do much good for the City. He stated that an additional line would increase the cost to the developer. He requested that this plat be postponed from sending it to Council until something could be worked out with staff. Vice-Chairman Barfield stated they may try to have another meeting before Thanksgiving. Mr. LeBaron stated that the Commission might want to schedule a special meeting the Tuesday before Thanksgiving since there are a number of projects in the mill. He stated otherwise, the next meeting would not be until the second Thursday in December. Mr. Perkins asked if this would go onto Council before the next Commission meeting. Mr. LeBaron stated if the issue is resolved here, it would go straight on to Council. Vice-Chairman Barfield stated they would be glad to table it if Mr. Perkins wanted to bring it back up at the next Commission meeting. Mr. Perkins stated that if they made a recommendation to work out the problem with City Staff, then it would not need to come back to the Commission. Mr. Perkins stated whatever recommendation made tonight is fine. as long as he has time to work out a compromise with the City Staff on that issue, and as long as the plat did not go to Council earlier than December 14th. Mr. Wilson made the motion to approve PS 92-17 subject to engineering comments; that the side building line on Lot 32 of Block 2 be changed to 20-feet; and that an agreement between City Staff and developer be reached on the sewer line before the plat goes to City Council. The motion was seconded by Mr. Bowen, and the motion carried 6-0. 2.

Assistant Director of Public Works SUBJECT: PS92-17; STEEPLE RIDGE ADDITION; Phase III Supplemental to PWM 92-077 I have reviewed the response letter from Teague Nail & Perkins dated November 6 and offer the following additional comment. Public Works currently maintains a few water and sewer lines which are greater than 10 feet deep. Safety has been prioritized above cost in the past. When a pipe must be excavated and is greater than the recommended safe digging depth, the City has hired independent contractors to do the work. On extremely rare occasions, the City has attempted to do the work with City equipment. The attached diagram has been photocopied from the operator's manual. The straight line (reach) depth is 14 feet. The recommended dig zone is approximately 8 feet depending on; the shape and slope of the trench walls; articulation of the boom; stability of the excavated material; and angle and distance between the backhoe and the trench. If pipe is laid while using a trench box, 14 feet might be obtainable. Utility crews do not have a trench box. In addition, a trench box would generally be useless while working on services. Due to the reasons stated herein, Public Works developed a policy which requires illl services be connected to a pipe which is less than 10 feet deep. The original design for the existing sewer which serves Phase I, was approximately 10 feet deep. Due to the design of the streets and drainage for Phases II and III, the proposed grade above the existing sewer places the pipe 13 feet deep. Public Works notified the Engineer of this problem by telephone a few days after the first submittal. The first submittal was on August 24. Public Works formally notified the engineer by letter (PWM 92-067) dated September 23. The construction plans were revised and submitted again on October 12. The revised plans did not address Public Works' request for a parallel sewer. Public Works issued a second letter (PWM 92-077) dated November 2. Public Works viewed this issue as an engineering question and therefor chose not to delay the plat. The Engineer has responded in writing stating that due to the storm drain in Trails Edge Drive, any additional parallel sewer line would need to be at least 10.5 feet deep. Public Works has attempted to refrain from doing the engineering for the developer. It appears that Teague, Nail and Perkins may have overlooked two alternatives. (817) 511·5500 · P.O. BOX 820lOI · NORTH AICHLAND HillS, TEXAS 78112 I I. I I I I I I I Ie' I I I I I I I I_ I PWM 92-084 Page 2 November 12, 1992 ALTERNATIVE 1: Construct a parallel sewer along the east side of Saddle Ridge Trail directly above the existing sewer. The new pipe could be installed at a depth of 5 feet. The proposed storm drain could be lowered 2 feet. This would not affect the hydraulics along Saddle Ridge Trail and would allow all of the services on the west side to cross over the storm drain. A manhole would be required on the south side of Trails Edge Drive. This manhole would allow the sewerage to drop back into the deep sewer to pass under the 60 inch storm drain. ALTERNATIVE 2: Construct a parallel sewer along the west side of Saddle Ridge Trail, 10 feet west of the water line. This will require an additional 7 foot easement along the front of lots 50 through 57. All of the services along Saddle Ridge Trail originate on the west side. If the sewer were constructed here, the design for the proposed storm drain in Saddle Ridge Trail would not need to be altered. The sewer would require 2 manholes and could be constructed at a depth of 5 feet. The manhole at the north end would need to be 1 2 feet deep and could be connected to the existing manhole in Trails Edge Drive. ALTERNATIVE 1 or 2: The parallel sewer along Trails Edge Drive needs to be constructed along the north side. This would alleviate conflicts with the proposed storm drain. There are 3 services on the south side of Trails Edge Drive which will need to cross over the storm drain. If the foundations are kept high enough (1 2" to 1 8" above the top of curb), these three lots should be able to sewer over the storm drain. Recent construction problems with Lone Star Gas indicate the need for an additional easement along the north side of Trails Edge Drive. Five feet would be sufficient. ~~~~ Kevin B. Miller, P.E.

Generally, we will comply with the comments in the letter. The plat has been revised to reflect the needed changes and 18 copies accompany this letter. The construction plans are in the process of being revised and will be forwarded when they are complete. Our specific response to the comments are as follows: 1. The easement between lot 55 and 56 has been revised to 15 feet. 2. The easement between lots 57 and 58 has been increased to 25 feet. 3. The street lighting plan will be revised as requested. 4. Trails Edge Drive has a 60 inch pipe which will require any additional parallel sewer line to be at least 10.5 feet deep. This stormdrain cannot practically be moved up or down. The existing sewer is about 13 feet deep, only 2 or 3 feet deeper than the depth of the recommended parallel sewer line. Since the cost of installing a parallel sewer would be at least $15,000, and since it would only save two or three feet of depth, such installation seems unreasonab 1 e. We, therefore, reques t a wai ver from this request of the Department of Public Works. 5. The construction plans will be revised to reflect the comments noted on the red-line mark ups from the Department of Public Works except as noted above. Based on the above, we request approval of the plat subject to these revisions to the construction plans. Irving 220 W. Irving Blvd., Ste. 2 Irving, Texas 75060 ¡ . . Fort Worth I I.

The minimum easement width is 7.5 feet on each side of a lot line for a total of 1 5 feet. The 10 foot easement between Lot 55 and 56, Block 2 needs to be increased to 1 5 feet. 2. The easement between Lots 57 and 58, Block 2, will require a minimum of a 25 foot easement. 3. The additional street lights need to be revised as shown. A 3-way contract must be signed by the Developer, Public Works and TU Electric prior to beginning construction. The cost for installation of the additional street lights will be paid by the Developer directly to TU Electric. 4. The sewer which serves this property was installed with Phase I. The sewer pipe is 10 to 14 feet deep due to the shape of the watershed. This presented some construction problems during Phase II. The services which are connected to the deep main were excavated in rock. This was extremely time consuming and costly. In addition, deep services are nearly impossible for the City to maintain using the equipment currently owned by the City. In light of these facts, Public Works recommends a parallel sewer be considered. The Developer may find it cost effective. (817) 581-5500 · P.O. BOX 820lOI · NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS 78112 I I.

Assistant Director of Utilities SUBJECT: PS92-17; STEEPLE RIDGE ADDIDTION; Phase III - Final Plat and Construction Plans. I have reviewed the subject documents submitted to this office on August 24 and offer the following comments. 1 . The Metes and Bounds Description and the exhibit are not in agreement. The discrepancy occurs in the fourth call. The distance is shown as 780 + 20 feet with different bearings. The written discription is 800 feet with one bearing. This should be resolved as indidcated in Phase I. 2. The Surveyor1s seal and signature should be added to the Plat. 3. The title block should include the Subdivision name in large bold letters as indicated in the Subdivision Ordinance. This will facilitate quick identification of the plat. 4. The North Arrow and scale are barely legible. The symbols need to be made darker for future reproductions. 5. The minimum easement width is 7.5 feet on each side of a lot line for a total of 1 5 feet. The 1 0 foot easements need to be increased to 1 5 feet. 6. Sidewalk and Utility Easements need to be added to the intersection of Stone Wall Court and Saddle Ridge Trail 7. All drainage easements dedicated between lots need to include an overland concrete surface. This will discourage property owners from cross-fencing the easements as well as protecting the area from erosion. The easement between lots 57 and 58, block 2 will require a minimuln of a 25 foot easement. The easement configuration at the northwest end will require additional calculation to accomodate the necessary inlet, headwall and sanitary sewer. It appears that an offsite easement may also be required to provide the necessary appurtances and the residual lot space to build a functional house. (817) 581-5500 · P.o. BOX 820809 · NORTH RICHLAND HillS, TEXAS 76182 I I. I 1 I I I 1 I I. I I I I 1 I I, I I PWM-92-067 Page 2 September 23, 1992 8. All offsite easements and exhibits should be prepared and forwarded to the Public Works Department for review. The signed easements should be transmitted to the Public Works Department for filing with the approved Final Plat. 9. Building Setback lines should be added for the lots adjacent to this plat. 10. The cul-de-sac at the south end of Saddle Ridge Trail is not geometrically standard. The center point for the outside radius has been offset from the street centerline. Additional dimensions need to be added to the plat to adequately locate the radius point with respect to the street centerline. 11 . Street Lighting is required by section 1-06 of the Design Manual. The locations of any existing street lights should be shown on the plans to confirm compliance with current ordinances. All additional street lights which may be required based on current ordinances should be coordinated with Public Works and TU Electric. The cost for installation of any additional street lights will be paid by the developer directly to TU Electric. 1 2. The drainage calculations indicate that all of the storm water from the west (offsite) will be collected in a 54" pipe. The underground system will then be used to move the storm water through Phase III to the discharge point north of Phase II. The Right-Of-Ways in Phase II & III have therefore not been designed to accomodate all of the 1 00 year storm above ground. The construction plans currently indicate the pipe will be extended to the limits of this plat and plugged for future extension. The inlet at the end of the pipe (prior to the plug) is not large enough to capture all of the water which will get to it during the interim. This will present significant flooding problems in Phases II & III. The 54" pipe will therefore require a headwall with adequate errosion protection and sufficient easement for maintenance. A similar situation exists west of Crestwood Estates and approximately 400 feet north of Starnes Road. The pipe was sized appropriately but due to lack of easements and subsequent maintence, the pipe became plugged and consequently contributed to flooding a residence during the 1989 storms. 13. The sewer which serves this property was installed with Phase I. The sewer pipe is 1 0 to 14 feet deep due to the shape of the watershed. This presented some construction problems during Phase II. The services which are connected to the deep main were excavated in rock. This was extremely time consuming and costly. In addition, deep services are nearly impossible for the City to maintain using the equipment currently owned by the City. In light of these facts, Public Works recommends a parallel sewer be considered. The Developer may find it cost effective. I I. I I I I I I 1 I.

PS 92-36 Agenda Number: Sunnybrook Properties, Inc. is the developer of a 17.9 acre tract of land located at the southeast corner of Smithfield Road and Green Valley Drive. The developer has submitted a Final Plat of the property to develop a 56 lot single family residential subdivision. The tract is currently zoned R-2 Single Family Residential. Since Smithfield Road is a C-4-U Collector Street on the Master Thoroughfare Plan, the developer will be constructing a masonry screening wall along the portion of Smithfield Road which borders this subdivision. The City Council should note that when the Birdville I.S.D. property was platted to the north of this tract adjacent to Green Valley Drive, the City Council required the school district to dedicate an additional five feet of right-of-way along Green Valley Drive. This requirement was made to obtain one half of the right-of-way needed for the construction of a 40-foot collector street. The developer of this subdivision will be dedicating an additional five feet of right-of-way which will provide a fifty-five foot right-of-way along that portion of Green Valley Drive which abuts both the Bridlewood Estates Addition and the Birdville I.S.D. property. While sixty feet of right-of-way is desirable for a forty-foot street, it can barely be accomodated within fifty-five feet. Due to the configuration of the property, it is virtually impossible to dedicate the five-foot strip on Green Valley Drive without some other adjustments. The developer has agreed with the staff's request that the extra five feet on Green Valley Drive be obtained by reducing the right-of-way on Bridlewood Court from fifty feet to forty-five feet. This will permit the adjacent lots to retain their existing depth. A five-foot utility easement will be located along each side of this northern portion of Bridlewood Court to provide adequate access to utility installations. This Final Plat was reviewed and approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission at their December 10, 1992 meeting.

Vice-Chairm Barfield stated the proposed driveway is too close to the Stardust inters tion, and there are many ingress and egress problems along Rufe Snow rive. He stated if the drive approach is built within two years, it would okay. Mr. Dewey stated they w going to start building as soon as they could get a building permit. He st the project would have only one driveway for both lots. Vice-Chairman Barfield asked if Mr. ewey agreed with all the other comments. Mr. Dewey stated yes. Mr. Bowen made the motion to approve PS 92- with the following stipulations: a waiver of the 7.5 utility easements the north and east sides; a requirement of a 5-100t easement along the h side, and that a 15-100t easement be recorded along the western edg f the adjacent property prior to final plat submittal: and that the Rufe Soo rive approach must be constructed by January 1, 1994, or no dri ay will be granted. The motion was seconded by Mr. Moody, and the tion carried 6-0. 2. PS 92-36 Request of Sunnybrook Properties for Final Plat of Bridlewood Addition. This property is located at the southeast corner of Smithfield Road and Green Valley Drive. Vice-Chairman Barfield stated that City staff has requested study on the extra street width on the south side of Green Valley Drive, and that the drainage to the south is taken care of before this plat is finalized. He stated the construction of Smithfield Road along the leftover property and the street names also need to be discussed. Mr. Wilson stated he would like to see some sort of access for children to get to Green Valley Elementary without having to go all the way to the entrance on Smithfield Road. Mr. Dick Perkins, of Teague Nail and Perkins, 915 Florence Street, Fort Worth came forward to speak. He stated the plans for the drainage flume and the closeness of the intersection could make that a problem and may incur some liability problems for the City. Vice-Chairman Barfield asked Mr. LeBaron what the sidewalk situation was on Smithfield Road. Mr. LeBaron stated a sidewalk will be required along Smithfield Road and Green Valley Drive unless a specific waiver is granted by Council. Mr. Wilson stated that he would recommend that the sidewalk not be required along the south side of Green Valley so the extra five foot of street width can be obtained for parking for parents. I Ie I I I I I I I Ie I I I I I I Ie I I PZ Minutes - Page 3 10 December 92 Mr. Perkins stated the school only has about 250-feet ot frontage on Green Valley. He stated there would only be a short transition between where the extra street width would be, and he did not feel it would do any good. He stated that at the pre-session they talked about running a 40- foot street across the entire frontage ot the subdivision. but over half of that is not school frontage. Vice-Chairman Barfield stated the property to the east of the school was undeveloped, and when that property develops, they have the opportunity to get the additional right-ot-way. He stated it would be foolish not to build the street at this time. He asked if the developer would have any problem with paving the extra five foot if the sidewalk is not required. Mr. Alan Hamm, 5125 Davis Boulevard, asked how far they want to take the wider street, if they want to go all the way to Davis Boulevard in the future. Vice-Chairman Barfield stated that the school needs to tell the City how many cars they expect to stack up there, and enough room needs to be there for that many cars. He stated staff needs to get with the school to work that out. Mr. Lueck stated they would probably use whatever is there. Mr. Perkins stated that there may be City participation in the widening of Smithfield Road, and may be some on Green Valley. Vice-Chairman Barfield stated if that is the policy, then the City should help pay for it. Mr. LeBaron stated the Public Works department feels the right-of-way is adequate, and that some adjustments in street width can be made within that right-of-way. Mr. Lueck asked who would pay for it. Mr. LeBaron stated if the width is greater than what is required, and funds are available, then the City would help pay for it. Mr. Lueck stated there is some trade-off if there is no sidewalk. Vice-Chairman Barfield stated he did not know what the Council would do about the sidewalk. He stated he would like to leave it up to the staff and the school. Mr. Perkins asked if the staff should get with the developer and the school to solve this problem. Vice-Chairman Barfield stated that would probably be the best solution. Mr. Moody stated if the sidewalk is needed, it should be put in. Mr. Perkins stated the likelihood of children walking along the south side is pretty slim, given the development pattern. He stated most children would use the north sidewalk, coming down from Ember Oaks. I Ie I I I I I I I Ie I I I I I I Ie I I PZ Minutes - Page 4 10 December 92 Vice-Chairman Barfield stated he would like to leave that issue for staff to work out with the developer before the plat goes to Council. Mr. Perkins asked if there would be a recommendation concerning the sidewalk. Vice-Chairman Barfield stated that it should be looked at. He stated Council may require it no matter what the Commission does because they are adamant about sidewalks. Mr. Lueck stated Council has made their views known about sidewalks. Vice-Chairman Barfield asked if the developer had agreed to construct Smithfield Road along the unplatted property. Mr. Perkins stated yes. Vice-Chairman Barfield asked that they work with the staff on the sidewalk. Mr. Perkins asked if the masonry fence would be required across the front of the unplatted property. Vice-Chairman Barfield stated they cannot require the developer to put up a masonry wall across property that they do not even own. He stated the street does need to continue across there. Mr. Wilson made the motion to approve PS 92-36 subject to the following stipulations: no masonry wall is required in front of the Martinis property, but the street be built; the sidewalk and street improvement on the north side be worked out between staff, developer, and the school district; the street names be changed; and subject to all engineering comments. Vice-Chairman Barfield stated the drainage easement on the southeast corner of the property should be obtained before the plat is approved. Mr. Wilson agreed and accepted the amendment to the motion. The amended motion was seconded by Mr. Lueck, and the motion carried 6-0. 3. PZ 92-37 Public Hearing to consider the request of Robert McCauley II and Vic . Thornton to rezone Tract 3, Landon C.

Assistant Director of Public Works SUBJECT: PS 92-36; BRIDLEWOOD ADDITION; Block 1, Lots 1-56; Final Plat and Construction Plans I have reviewed the subject documents submitted to this office on November 9 and offer the following comments. 1 . The appropriate signatures need to be added to the Owner's Acknowledgment and Dedication. 2. The title block needs to be revised as shown. 3. The Preliminary Plat indicated that the tract with an existing home would be included with the Final Plat. There was no discussion with regards to phasing the plat. The Smithfield right-of-way will require dedication through separate instrument if this lot is not included in the Final Plat. 4. The block labels need to be darker, bolder and bigger so that they stand out. 5. The City has obtained a Global Positioning System (GPS) Horizontal Control Survey. This survey was accomplished to create an accurate base map for the Geographical Information System. City policy requires that all new plats be tied by survey to the GPS. This will allow the City to keep the GIS up-to-date. The Public Works Department has written descriptions for all of the GPS Benchmarks located around the City. This plat needs to be revised to include the NAD83 Texas State Plane Coordinates for at least two property corners. The coordinates need to be determined by a survey tied to the City's GPS monuments. 6. The easement between lots 23 and 24 needs to be a drainage easement. (817) 581·5500 · P.o.

The Subdivision Ordinance requires a minimum of a 7.5 foot utility easement around the perimeter of the property. The Preliminary Plat disclosed a conflict with an existing pool deck and the platted property. Since the pool and deck are to remain, sufficient survey information (coordinates and horizontal ties) needs to be provided to locate the existing pool with respect to the proposed plat. In addition, a 1 5 foot utility easement will be required along the rear of lots 49 through 51. 8. There are several street intersections which will require sidewalk and utility easements as defined in the Design Manual. The easements need to be clearly indicated on the plat. 9. There are two cul-de-sacs which require additional dimensions to locate the point of radius for the outside curve. These dimensions need to be added to the plat. 10. The current zoning needs to be clearly indicated on the face of the plat. This includes the proposed lots and the adjacent lots. 11. All offsite rights-of-way, easements and exhibits need to be prepared and forwarded to the Public Works Department for review. The signed documents need to be transmitted to the Public Works Department prior to filing the approved Final Plat. 12. The existing rights-ot-way have not been clearly defined. Since this was not accomplished during the Preliminary Plat, it is imperative that the previous dedications are clearly defined on the Final Plat. This exhibit is reasonably explicit as to the proposed dedications but there are no dimensions to existing property north or west of this plat. 13. Bridlewood Drive is not a "through" street and will never be. In addition, this plat is proposing 5 different street names which are all very similar. Public Works would therefore request that the names be changed to eliminate "Drive" and reduce the number of similar street names. 14. The Zoning Ordinance requires sidewalks adjacent to all public streets. The sidewalks need to be added to the construction plans for Smithfield Road and Green Valley Drive. These sidewalks will be required as part of the street construction. The sidewalks which are adjacent the Bridlewood streets, may be constructed with the improvement of each individual lot. 15. Street lighting is required by section 1-06 of the Design Manual. The additional street lights need to be coordinated with Public Works and TU Electric. The cost for installation of any additional street lights will be paid by the developer directly to TU Electric. A street lighting plan was submitted with the construction plans. I' Ie I I I I I I I Ie I I I I I I Ie I I PWM 92-089 Page 3 December 2, 1992 1 6. The City of North Richland Hills has adopted water and sewer impact fees. In general these fees are due from the Builder (at the time of construction) and therefor do not significantly impact on the Developer. There are some projects however which require the construction of Public Water and Sewer facilities. If those facilities are included in the City's 10 year plan, then there may be City participation availa ble. 17. Current EPA regulations require that an NPDES permit be obtained prior to beginning construction. The Owner and Contractor are both responsible for obtaining the permit. The Owner should therefor request information from the EPA to determine the necessary steps for filing an application for an EPA - NPDES Permit. 18. There are numerous comments regarding the engineering and construction plans. These comments are recorded on a set of blueline construction plans. The plans will be 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. Due to the quantity and magnitude of the comments, Public Works is recommending that this plat be revised prior to submitting to the City Council. The Final Plat, Construction Plans and offsite easements must be revised and submitted to Public Works prior to filing the approved plat. The marked-up blue lines need to be returned with the next submittal. ~r~Ø/~ Assistant Director of Public Works cc: Greg W.

Department: Council Meeting Date: . Part T1me Shelter Attendant GN 93-01 . Subject: · Agenda Number: : . In August the ci ty Council requested that we explore the possibili ty of providing access to the Animal Care and Control Center beyond our current hours of operation. After reviewing several options available to make this possible, it was determined that the most economical method of extending the Center's hours of operation would be to provide access to the Center in the evening hours during the week. ~ I I with this as our objective, as we informed the City Council in August, we extended our Center hours from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., Tuesday through Friday to accommodate those who could not visit the Center during normal working hours. It should be noted that this arrangement was chosen because it would have the least effect on our budget during the trial period. Over the past three months the number of people visiting the Center has increased with many of them coming in during the evening hours. We have received many favorable comments from visitors who appreciate the extended hours which enables them to stop by the Center after work to look for their lost pet, adopt a pet or to purchase a city license, with the majority of the visitors looking for lost pets. I I The extended hours have had an impact on the number of animals returned to their owners as reflected in our monthly statistics. The following compares I the last three months of 1991 to the last three months of 1992 with extended Ia. hours: 1~ ANIMALS RECLAIMED BY OWNER* I I ~ , , , I Month ~ 1992 Actual increase % increase October 38 41 3 8% November 32 41 9 28% December 29 51 22 78% *These figures are for North Richland Hills residents only. It is requested that the City Council appropriate $5,000 to continue to fund this position for the remainder of this budget year. At the next budget session this position will be included in the request for funding proposal from this Department for the 1993-1994 budget year. Recommendation: It is recommended that· the City Council fund this part time position in the amount of $5,000 from the City council Contingency Fund for the remainder of this budget year.

Box 820609 North Richland Hills, TX 76180 Dear Mayor and City Council: I believe each of you are interestered in seeing the city of North Richland Hills offer a full multiplicity of community services to its residents. I say this because of the many positive actions you have taken to improve the quality of life here in our community. A few weeks ago, I wrote you regarding an opportunity for the city to participate in making classical music available to all the residents of our city. I am referring to the NORTHEAST ORCHESTRA which was founded in 1989 by a group of residents from North Richland Hills and surrounding communities to bring live orchestral music to the people of Northeast Tarrant County. From the initial roster of twenty-one, they have grown to over fifty musicians who play without pay because they love music and want to add to the quality of life in our community. Admission to the concerts are free and offered as a public service. As a member of the Board of Directors of this quality non-profit organization, I can personally assure you that all funds received by this orchestra are spent on music, fees for our director, honorarium for guest soloists and ensembles, and concert related expenses. Our budget for next year is approximately $9,000. This year, the orchestra performed four of our seven major concerts in North Richland Hills. Our plans are currently being formalized for 1993-94. We will again perform at least 50% of our concerts in North Richland Hills. On behalf of the NORTHEAST ORCHESTRA, I am requesting that the city of North Richland Hills support $5,000 of our 1993-94 budget. with your assistance, we will be able to properly promote the activities of the orchestra, and better serve the cultural needs of the citizens of North Richland Hills. Thank you for considering this request.

As a large Dealership that thrives on drive-by traffic and curb appeal, we find that the use of balloons is extremely helpful in attracting customers. We would like to propose the issuance of a permit on a yearly or monthly basis allowing the use of balloons and other very restricted signage on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. A few moments of your time to address this issue would be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, ~ ~ ~ Gary Deurance General Sales Manager GD/jp
