Bond Election package. The improvements were designed to be full concrete channel lining in order to contain a 100 year frequency storm runoff from a fully developed upstream watershed._ In coordinating with the US Army Corps of Engineers for a Section 404 Permit and discussing drainage easement dedication with adjacent property owners, there has been further discussion about alternative designs for the channel. Our consultant has taken a look at an alternative design which will provide greater channel capacity upstream of Main Street than exists today and will have minimal impact on the property downstream of Main Street. The results will be distributed at the Pre Council meeting. Respectfully submitted, <'-' ISSUED BY THE CITY MANAGER NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS .

The earthen channel section, as shown on the attached exhibits, is about twice the width of a concrete channel as required to convey the 100-year discharge. Hydraulic information is noted on the "Typical Section Alternates" drawing. We have made a preliminary HEC-2 run to verify that the earthen alternate section will carry the 100-year discharge, and it works O.K., (assuming there are no obstructions in the channel such as trees, etc.). Also, the covered bridge was removed for the earthen HEC-2 run. We have not prepared a cost comparison of the two alternates because additional field survey data will be required for the extra earthen channel alternate width. Please call if you have any questions or require additional information. ~w,~ RICHARD W. ALBIN, P.E. RW A/ra/EncIosures/chanalt.354/ cc: Mr. C.A.

LOOP 820 JUNE 19, 1995 PRESENT: Joe Spurlock III Marlin Miller Steve Dunkelberg Doug Clark Frank Hare, Sammons Cable ITEM CALL TO ORDER APPROVAL OF MINUTES REVIEW PROPOSED RATES FOR CITICABLE SERVICES, NON-PROFITI PROFIT RATES, AND MAKE RECOMMENDATION ON THESE TO CITY COUNCIL STAFF PRESENT: GUESTS: Greg Oldenburg Larry Cunningham Betty Sorrels Andy Wayman DISCUSSION ASSIGNMENT Vice Chairman Spurlock called the meeting to order at 6:00 PM. The minutes for May 15 is corrected to read: " the cost would be $4355, or $725 for ~ show". The minutes were approved unanimously with this correction. Board Members discussed the "Schedule A" rate information sheet and the differences in defined profit/not for profit, charitable, non-commercial and commercial in regards to charges for Citicable services. Some organizations fall under the 501 (c)3 charitable Status and others do not carry that particular designation but are charitable. Citicable would offer reduced service charge rates for defined charity organizations, however, the variety of "charitable" designations causes a gray area that needs to be addressed. Categories need to be defined with each having an associated rate base. Requests by Individuals are to be brought before the Board on a case by case basis. Municipal Television Policy guidelines give parameters in which Citicable can operate. The Policies are also clear on copyright ownership.

The department is receiving more video production set-up requests and requests from other City departments to document projects for their budget process. . F rank Hare of Sammons asked the status of the Pacific Cable issue that is being handled by the City Attorney. The issue involves Pacific Cable offering TV cable service through original security lines in a City apartment complex. This service is accomplished without consent of the City through franchise rights or permission to go under a city street with cable. At this time the problem is still being discussed between the attorneys for each party. Board members would like to get an update as soon as possible, regarding Pacific Cable, in the meantime, it is suggested that the Sammons Attorney contact the City Attorney. Doug Clark made a motion that the Board recommend City Council pursue an injunction immediately against Pacific Cable. Marlin Miller seconded and the motion passed unanimously. Greg Oldenburg reported that the Citicable interference problem needs to be isolated first before Sammons sends a technician. The problem of program interruption could be caused by several different factors. Frank Hare suggested a UPS system for Citicable.

(Located at the southwest corner of Grapevine Highway and Harwood Road) Ordinance No. 2067 Amerco Real Estate Company, the real estate company of U-Haullnternational, is the owner of a 13.874 acre tract of land located at the southwest corner of Grapevine Highway and Harwood Road. U-Haul of Texas, the developer of thé property, has submitted a zoning change on a 3.0904 acre portion of the tract. The property is presently zoned C-1 Commercial; the developer is requesting a change to C-2 Commercial. The property is the proposed site for a mini-warehouse facility. A mini-warehouse complex is an allowed use in the C-2 zoning district, but it also requires a Special Use Permit. ~-Haul has also applied for a Special Use Permit for the mini-warehouses, and the City Council will also consider that request at its August 28,1995 meeting. (see Case No. PZ 95-16) The property is bounded by Harwood Road on the north, and Grapevine Highway on the southeast. The adjacent property to the east is zoned C-2 Commercial, where two existing businesses are located. There are commercial businesses across Grapevine Highway from this property, but the property across Harwood Road is vacant. All of this property is zoned C-1 Commercial. A single ',- family subdivision is located approximately 350-feet to the west. The proposed area for the, mini- warehouses does not abut a single family area. The Comprehensive Land Use Plan calls for single-family residential development in this general area. This request is not consistent with the adopted Plan. If the request is approved, 'the adopting . ordinance will contain a section that will amend the Plan to indicate this area suitable for commercial development. The Planning and Zoning Commission conducted a Public Hearing and considered this zoning change request a~ its August 10, 1995 meeting and recommended approval.

(Located at the southwest corner of Grapevine Highway and Harwood Road) PZ 95-16 '--Subject: Ordinance No. 2068 Amerco Real Estate Company, the real estate company of U-Haullnternational, is the owner of a 13.874 acre tract of land located at tne southwest corner of Grapevine Highway and Harwood Road. U-Haul of Texas, the developer of the property, has submitted a zoning change from C-1 to C-2 Commercial on a 3.0904 acre portion of the tract. (see PZ 95-15) U-Haul has also applied for a Special Use Permit for a mini-warehouse facility on the property. A mini-warehouse is an allowed use in the C-2 district with a Special Use Permit. Included in the agenda is an information packet from U-Haul. This packet includes a color site plan, several computer generated renderings of the facility, an aerial photo of the area, and other information. The following is a summary of the proposed mini-warehouse facility. 1. The proposed building is a new concept developed by U-Haul. The 66,600 square foot "L"- shaped building is a two-story structure housing 541 units. The units range in size from 25- "- square feet to 150-square feet, with some units being climate controlled. Since the Planning and Zoning Commission has recommended that a stucco finish not be allowed on this structure, the developer has' agreed to construct the exterior of the building out of brick or some other masonry finish. Windows will also be provided to break up the "warehouse" look. An accessory apartment for a live-in security guard will also be provided, as allowed by the Zoning Ordinance. 2. The parking and loadinglunloading area is located in the interior side of the "L". Thirty-one parking spaces are provided for persons using or visiting the facility, and seven other spaces are dedica~ed for loading and unloading. The Zoning Regulations require 30 parking spaces for this use; 31 spaces have been provided. 3, U-Haul proposes to landscape approximately 25,550 square feet of the site, which includes credits fc5r trees. The Zoning Regulations require 15% of the site, or 20,193 square feet to be landscaped. Perimeter landscaping is provided as a buffer between the adjacent properties. The proposed site plan appears to meet the landscaping requirements of the ordinance. A . detailed review will be performed when plans are submitted for building permits. The Planning Finance Review Source of Funds: Bonds (GO/Rev.) ~ .)perating Budget Other Ã{ ~ = R.,,~~ Dep ment Head Signature CITY COUNCIL ACTION ITEM - Acct. Number Sufficient Funds Available - . Fon.nce DII.CIO' Manager ,~ and Zoning Commission has recommended that a four-foot tall berm, with landscaping on top of the berm, also be constructed along this property's frontage on Harwood Road. 4. Access to this property is from Harwood Road and Grapevine Highway. Due to the narrow frontage of the proposed site, only one driveway will be permitted on each frontage. The minimum spacing of driveways for these two roads is 500 feet. The proposed site plan indicates two approaches on Grapevine Highway. 5. The property is presently unplatted. Before any building permits can be issued for this use, the Subdivision Regulations and Zoning Regulations require the property to be platted. The owner is in the process of having the property platted. The Planning and Zoning Commission conducted a Public Hearing and considered this Special Use Permit request at its August 10, 1995 meeting and recommended approval subject to the following requirements: the exterior of the building shall be brick, masonry, concrete block, or other material approved by the City Council; and that a four-foot tall berm, with landscaping on top of the berm, be constructed along this property's frontage on Harwood Road. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council conduct the required Public Hearing and consider the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission.

CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS Department: Administration Subject: Establishment of Permanent Street Maintenance Fund - Resolution No. 95-47 Council Meeting Date: 8/28/95 Agenda Number: GN 95-109 For the past several years the City Council and City Administration has been most interested in increasing efforts to strengthen the maintenance of City streets. With over 195 miles of streets and the aging of them, it has become increasingly important to conduct preventive maintenance on our streets and do major repairs. Three years ago additional funding was provided to increase the number of streets to be overlayed or otherwise resurfaced. That funding has continued, and in the proposed 1995/96 budget, it has been recommended and tentatively approved by Council to increase that funding by an additional $100,000. This brings the total proposed allocation to $350,000 for the coming year. In some years we may have more construction needs than in others or bids may come in lower than estimated which would allow us to repair or resurface more streets. We would like to have the flexibility of using the funds that are left from one project year to another for use for street resurfacing projects. By creating a special Permanent Street Maintenance Fund for such projects and purposes, unused funds could remain in the Fund and used for future allocations for the same street maintenance purposes. In addition, as we have some opportunities to increase the annual allocation in the future years, it would allow us to keep the funds in one special purpose fund without it having to go back into the General Fund balance or be used for another purpose. At some point in the future it might even be advisable to consider allocating a certain amount of sales tax or ad valorem tax for this Fund. The proposed resolution provides for the establishment of a Permanent Street Maintenance Fund and identifies the purposes for its use. However, a provision is made that if there is a natural disaster or some other major problem that creates an extreme emergency, any reserves can be reallocated for purposes other than for streets. In this way there is a safe guard that if there are greater emergency needs, and funds were available, these could be reallocated. Recommendation: It is recommended that Council approve Resolution No. 95-47. Finance Review Department Head Signature C"YCOUNC~ACnON"EM Finance Oftclor Source of Funds: Bonds (GO/Rev.) .

APPROVED: Tommy Brown, Mayor ATTEST: City Secretary APPROVED AS TO FORM AND LEGALITY: Attorney fQr the City CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS I, Department: Finance Council Meeting Date: Subject: HearinQ on 1995-96 Proposed Tax Rate . Agenda Number: 8/28/95 GN 95-110 The proposed tax rate for 1995-96 is 57¢ which is above the 3% allowed by the State to be increased 'Nithout holding a special public hearing. Even though our current tax rate is 57¢ and the proposed rate is 57¢, it is considered to be an increase. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a special hearing on the tax rate and allow public comment on this proposed rate. The notice of the public hearing has been published in accordance with State law, and it was published in the August 18, Fort Worth Star Telegram. The publication was a quarter page ad and listed the City Council members who voted in support of the tax rate and those who were not in attendance at the Council meeting when it was discussed. The hearing was advertised for 7:30 p.m., August 28. The 57¢ tax rate is 3.2645¢ greater than the effective tax rate for 1995-96 of 53.7355¢. If the proposed 57 ¢ tax rate is approved by Council, it will mean that the tax rate has remained the same for the past three fiscal years. The 57 ¢ tax rate breaks down as follows: Interest and Sinking Fund General Fund - Maintenance and Operations 27.8234¢ 29. 1766¢ The proposed tax rate still places the City of North Richland Hills tax rate about mid-point of the tax rates in the area with Hurst, Euless, and Watauga all being higher than North Richland Hills. Recommendation: Following the public hearing on the tax rate, it is recommended that Council direct staff to place an ordinance on the September 11, City Council agenda to adopt a tax rate of 57¢ for fiscal year 1995-96.

Sanford City of North RicWand Hills 7301 N.E. Loop 820 North RicWand Hills, Texas 76180 ~ ----- Dear C.A.: We have attached the draft Iron Horse budgets for the 1995/96 fiscal year. As you will see, the outlook is positive; and we are optimistic about another record year. Please do, not hesitate to call either of us if you have any questions. As you know, we are also interested in renegotiating our contract with the City and extending it for a new five year term. Iron Horse has experienced unprecedented success in the past three years. The. transition has gone well for two of the three years, and economically, we have progressed ITom a situation in which EAGL advanced $200,000 over the Winter to where we have enough cash to cover Winter operating deficits and to make capital improvements. In a sense, EAGL has been the victim of its own success. Because Iron Horse has done well, EAGL has also been rewarded. Thus, our management fee has increased to a projected amount for the 1995/96 fiscal year exceeding $160,000. We are not charging any accounting fees and' are not allocating other corporate costs to the course, but the fee is still above average. Iron Horse is a very important project to us, as it is in our "back yard." We have worked extremely hard the past three years to balance financial concerns with service and quality, and we are confident that an analysis would show that the value we add more than justifies the fees. Nevertheless, we also believe that an extension of the term in return for lower fees would be a win/win arrangement.· Thus, in the budget, we have included fees according to the following schedule rather than according to the current arrangement: Current FeeStructllre Proposed Fee Structure Base Fee $7,102/month $6,500/month Contingent Fee 7% of revenue exceeding 6% of revenue exceeding $1.1 million. The fee is $1.425 . million. The fee will subordinated to debt service be subordinated to debt sefVIce. Accountin2 Fees $0 $0 Total Pro.iected Fee (95/96) $162,418 $129,290 .J -~-'~_..'-- ~Q~".All'.1- " " '" .. ~ ë, '" 0 ., '>~ .~ ltW\'\ _____=-:.__.1_' (214) 915-367: ......------..,.--:1 (214) 915.3677 1J.·-·-·_·_~--'1 8505 FREEPORT PKWY SUITE 380 IRVING. TEXAS 7 5 0 6 3 " As you can see, we are proposing a 20% reduction in fees if we meet our projections. 'If we do not meet projections, the reduction is even greater, We are asking for' a new five-year term commencing on January 1, 1995 with the same cancell,ationclause (per IRS regulations) as is in the previous contract. The advantages of this proposal are many. P·or . the City, the redµction in fees will make Iron Horse among the lower revenue generating courses we have, especially as a percentage of revenues. Yet, the City will continue to receive all of the benefits EAGL offers. We can both continue the successful, mutually beneficial, smooth relationship we have enjoyed for the past six years. For EAGL, we. can continue to' commit to our employees and give them a sense of stability, opportunity, 'and growth. . It also gives EAGLthe opportunity to showcase one of the finest municipal golf projects we know of As you know, we sincerely appreciate the chance ·to work with you and with the City of North Richland Hills. We are committed to excellence at Iron Horse. We would love to continue to . work with you over the long term. Sincerely, yours, EVERGREEN ALLIANCE GOLF LIMITED Michael D.

On June 12, 1995, the City Council voted to enter into a contract, along with other area cities, to retain the legal services of Varnum, Riddering, Schmidt, and Howlett of Grand Rapids, Michigan to represent the cities in the consideration of the transfer. The firm retained KFA Services to evaluate and report on the financial condition of Marcus Cable. KFA Services found that Marcus did have some apparent weaknesses in its debt structure, but that overall, "we believe that Marcus has the capacity to successfully finance and operate the Sammons area system over the next five to ten years..." Based on this and other analysis, the firm entered into negotiations with Marcus and Sammons to negotiate a conditional transfer of service, which is represented in Ordinance 2066. The conditions negotiated are intended to specifically protect the City's system, public rights-of-way, and the Citizens of North Richland Hills. These specific conditions are found in the Acceptance Agreement which is identified as Exhibit 1 in Ordinance 2066. As a condition of the transfer, Marcus Cable has agreed to reimburse the City for all legal expenses billed to the City by Varnum, Riddering, Schmidt and Howlett.

Marcus acknowledges that the transactions described in the Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of April 5, 1995, between Marcus Cable Associates, L.P. as buyer and Sammons Communications, Inc., Sammons of Fort Worth, and other entities as seller (collectively "Sammons"), and the transfer of the franchise granted by Ordinance No. 1862 (the "Ordinance" or "Franchise") pursuant thereto are expressly subordinate to and will not affect the binding nature of the Franchise and the obligations of the Grantee provided for therein, and that the consent of the City to the transaction does not constitute a waiver or release of any rights of the City. Marcus assumes and agrees to perform all of the obligations of the Franchise including any obligations to make refunds for periods prior to the transfer. 3. Marcus acknowledges that the City has consented to the transaction in reliance upon the representations, documents and information provided by Marcus and Sammons, all of which are incorporated herein by reference. 4. Customer Service. (a) Marcus will comply with the customer service rules of the FCC as presently in effect, 47 CFR § 76.309. Marcus's compliance shall be measured and enforced as follows: (i) For the purpose of such rules "normal business hours" therein are deemed to be 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Monday through Friday, and Saturday 9:00 AM to 1 :00 PM. (ii) Transfer to or answering by a voice mail system (or other automated response system) does not constitute answering "by a customer representative" under § 76.309(c)(ii) or analogous provisions of such rules. (iii) Within 20 business days of the close of each calendar quarter (or monthly, if the City requests same), Marcus will provide the City with a report in such form as the City and Marcus may reasonably agree, setting forth on a consistent basis, fairly applied, Marcus's performance as compared to such standards, including in particular as compared to the standards for telephone answer time, busy signals, standard installations, service interruptions, appointment windows, refunds and credits.

(v) Such reports shall show Marcus's performance including and excluding any periods of abnormal operating conditions, and if Marcus contends that any such abnormal conditions occurred during the reporting period in question, they shall also describe the nature and extent of such conditions. (vi) Marcus acknowledges that noncompliance with customer service standards will harm subscribers and the City and that the extent of harm will be difficult or impossible to measure. The City may therefore assess liquidated damages against Marcus for non-compliance with the preceding customer service standards as follows: The FCC Rules currently state as to § 76.309(c)(1)(ii) and (iv); and § 76.309(c)(2)(I), (ii), (iii) and (iv) (collectively "quarterly customer service standards") that the standards set forth therein "shall be met no less than ninety (90) percent of the time under normal operating conditions measured on a quarterly basis." a. Liquidated damages may be assessed if Marcus does not meet the ninety (90) percent standard for a given subsection (for example, §76.309 (c)(2)(ii)) of the -2- quarterly customer service standards in a given calendar quarter as follows. First Noncompliance Second Noncompliance Third and subsequent Noncompliance $0 $500 $1,000 b. The City may collect liquidated damages from any bond or letter of credit furnished under the Franchise. (b) In the event of a change in 47 CFR § 76.309 that makes any of the Federal customer service standards therein less stringent than those in effect in July, 1995, the City may adopt customer service regulations as to the subject matter of the portion of the rule that is changed. City agrees to meet with Marcus on any proposed changes prior to taking action on them, and to provide Marcus with at least 60 days notice of such action. Marcus agrees to comply with any such provisions that are no more stringent than those contained in 47 CFR § 76.309 as in effect in July, 1995 and to such extent agrees that it is not entitled to recover the costs of such compliance through external cost treatment or otherwise. (c) Marcus acknowledges that under applicable law the City may unilaterally establish and enforce reasonable customer service regulations that exceed or are not addressed by the standards established by the FCC or the standards currently established by the Franchise. (d) Marcus will provide at minimum the same quality of customer service that Sammons is currently providing, but in all events no less than the quality of service required by the Franchise, any other applicable City ordinance and applicable FCC regulation. As evidence of and to assist in compliance with such commitment, Sammons and Marcus agree as follows: 1. On an annual basis Marcus will provide the City with historical expenditure information and staffing levels on customer service related matters; the customer service standards currently used; its materials, if any, on same as used by its customer service representatives; and its procedures and forms used to measure compliance with applicable customer service standards. -3- 2. Marcus will provide such other information as the City reasonably requests relating to customer service matters. 5. Signal Quality.

All matters not resolved at that step shall be referred to the FCC for it to resolve. (d) Marcus shall annually notify its subscribers of the preceding. (e) Upon request by the City, Marcus at its expense will test the system in areas or at subscriber locations specified by City where there are apparent problems and provide City with the written report of such testing. If the test shows a non-compliance with such standards, Marcus will bring the system into compliance with such standards within 180 days. 6. Prior Defaults. Marcus agrees on behalf of itself and its affiliates that it will not contend directly or indirectly that any defaults or failures to comply with the franchise or other matters set forth in 47 USC § 546(c)(1 )(A) (Communications Act of 1934, Section 626(c)(1 ) (A)) (collectively "defaults") by Sammons occurring prior to the transfer to Marcus are waived, including but not limited to the following: (a) The ability of the City to obtain redress for prior defaults, such as recovery of any underpayment of franchise fees. (b) The ability of the City to enforce in the future any Franchise terms which may not have been enforced in the past. -4- Marcus reserves the right to contend that the transfer and the City's approval thereof preclude the City from considering defaults that occurred prior to the transfer in connection with any renewal or non-renewal of the Franchise. The City reserves the right to oppose such contention. The City confirms that it has informed Marcus of all defaults or other instances of noncompliance with the Franchise of which the City Administrator primarily responsible for cable television matters is aware as of the date hereof (without, however, having conducted any financial or other audit of performance or compliance). 7. Validity of Franchise. Marcus accepts and agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of the City Charter, the Franchise and all other ordinances applicable to its operations after the transfer. Marcus does not contend that any provision of the Franchise is unlawful or unenforceable, nor is it aware of any other ordinance or any provision in the City Charter which it contends is unlawful or unenforceable. The City acknowledges that the Franchise is in full force and effect. 8. Service and Equipment for Public Facilities. (a) Marcus will continue to provide the same installation and service without charge to public facilities as Sammons is providing at the present time, but in all events no less than is required by the Franchise or any other applicable city ordinance. (b) In addition, at the City's request Marcus will provide to the public facilities identified in the Franchise or other applicable city ordinance the highest level of installation and service without charge as it provides to any other community in the Fort Worth area. (c) If any service or equipment for public facilities provided pursuant to subsections (a) and (b) above exceeds the requirements of the Franchise or other applicable city ordinance, Marcus will not pass through the costs as so-called "external costs" or as new franchise requirements except that Marcus may pass through the cost of such services under subsection (b) above that exceeds the requirements of the franchise or other applicable city ordinance to the extent that cost exceeds $500 per year. 9. EEO Matters. Marcus agrees to faithfully adhere to all applicable federal, state and city laws, rules and regulations relating to non-discrimination, equal employment and affirmative action. -5- 10. Access to Records. The records and reports of the franchise grantee which are to be submitted to the City or otherwise made available for the City (such as for inspection by the City) pursuant to the Franchise or other ordinance or charter provisions of the City shall include records maintained by Marcus Cable Operating Company, L.P., Marcus Cable Company, L.P., Marcus Cable Properties, L.P., and their affiliates to the extent necessary for the City to discharge its responsibilities under the Franchise, FCC rules or state or local law, or to insure compliance with the Franchise or this Agreement. 11. Franchise Requirement. (a) Marcus will give the City 60 days notice in writing prior to allowing any telecommunications entity other than Marcus to use or lease its facilities (other than towers) in the City or capacity thereon or to amending any agreement with such an entity. No such arrangements or uses are presently in existence except as have been disclosed. "Telecommunications entity" means any entity subject to the jurisdiction of or regulated by the Federal Communications Commission (such as under the Communications Act of 1934 as amended) or the Texas Public Utility Commission or their successors, including telephone, alternative access and cable companies. Marcus will provide the City with such documents relating to the foregoing as the City may reasonably request, including copies of the agreements.

(c) Nothing herein shall expand or modify any restrictions or limitations under the Franchise or applicable law on use for telecommunication purposes of the facilities being acquired by Marcus. 12. Transaction Transparent to Rates. Marcus acknowledges that the transfer, the consent process, the City's action granting consent, and this Acceptance Agreement do not provide any basis for increasing the amounts paid by subscribers through cost pass- through as so-called "external costs" or as new franchise requirements and the consent process, action, and this agreement do not provide any basis for increasing the amounts paid by subscribers in any other manner. -6- 13. Other Matters. (a) In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Acceptance Agreement and the Franchise or any City Ordinance, that provision which provides the greatest benefit to the City, in the opinion of the City Council, shall prevail. (b) Marcus will join the City in obtaining from the FCC any waivers from time to time necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Acceptance Agreement. (c) If the transfer of the Franchise to Marcus Cable Associates, L.P., is not completed on or before March 31, 1996, then at the City's option prior to the transfer occurring, this agreement and the City's consent to transfer shall become null and void. Such option may be exercised prior to the transfer occurring by the City giving written notice to Marcus and Sammons at the addresses designated in the Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of April 5, 1995. (d) Marcus will cause the City to be reimbursed, by Sammons or otherwise, for its reasonable expenses in connection with the consent process including publication costs and fees of consultants and attorneys.

Marcus has informed the City's financial consultant, KFA Services, of the terms of commitments it has received from equity investors and lenders for financing its acquisition of the Sammons systems. KFA Services' report of August 4, 1995, is based in part on this information. Marcus acknowledges that the City is relying on that report in acting on the application for approval of the transfer. Marcus agrees to inform the City's financial consultant of any material difference~ between its final financing arrangements and those disclosed in the approval process. Marcus further agrees that the City may withdraw its approval and reconsider the application if any such differences would have a material adverse effect on Marcus or the subscribers.

Finance Director CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS '-...Department: Environmental Services Inter-local Agreement for Subject: Household Hazardous Waste Collection - Resolution No. 95-50 Council Meeting Date: 8/28/95 Agenda Number: GN 95-115 This year Tarrant County has received the grant for sponsoring the second regional household hazardous waste collection event which is scheduled for October 28, 1995. The following two sites have been designated as: (1) Fort Worth: Tandy Center Parking Lot (2) Northeast Tarrant: TCJC Northeast Campus Even though Tarrant County applied for and received the grant from TNRCC, the City of Fort Worth will be responsible for administration of the event and contracting with the disposal contractor as they did last year. This year, twelve cities have expressed interest in participating in the event. The grant is for up to $100,000 in project funding to pay for non-disposal costs of the event and includes such expenses as site setup, collection administration, transportation costs, advertising, and public education materials. Entities will contract with Fort Worth to participate in the event. The contract specifies a "not to exceed" cost based on an estimated household participation rate and an estimated cost per household of $75. Using the estimated participation figure of 290 households, the cost to North Richland Hills is $21,750 which is close to the original projected cost of participation in 1994. Cities will pay lesser amounts, if applicable, as was the case last year for North Richland Hills when our actual cost was $11,817. It should be noted that this cost was less than projected even though we had more than twice the predicted participation last year. Two hundred sixty-seven North Richland Hills households participated in the 1994 program. Each participating city is required to approve the attached inter-local agreement which includes a mutual ,-.ndemnification and also establishes each participating city's maximum share of the events non-grant funded costs. The notice of intent to participate is needed by September 1. 1995 to enable production of advertising materials. The City's Environmental Services Department receives telephone calls daily from residents requesting information on disposal of household hazardous waste. Resolution 95-50 will establish a safe and inexpensive method for disposing of pesticides, solvents, paints or other chemicals used in the household. This second collection event will give all residents of North Richland Hills the opportunity to safely dispose of any household hazardous waste free of charge. Volunteers that worked last year have once again expressed a desire to help during the event. There is funding in the 1995/1996 Budget to cover the cost of a public awareness campaign to ensure maximum participation. Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council approve participation in the second regional Household Hazardous Waste Collection Event and authorize city staff to enter into the required inter-local agreement.

The utility relocations will be done prior to the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) widening the second phase of Precinct Line Road from the railroad crossing north to Davis Boulevard. The Trinity River Authority (TRÃ) has one 33-inch sanitary sewer main which crosses under Precinct Line Road to serve North Richland Hills. This main and metering station will need to be adjusted to avoid conflict with the drainage and street improvements proposed by TxDOT. Since this is the only line relocation by TRA on this project and it serves North Richland Hills, TRA is requesting the City include the 33-inch sewer main relocation in our Precinct Line Road Utility Adjustments, Phase II project. TRA will reimburse the City 100% of the cost for relocating the sewer main within 30 days of a "final accounting of costs" being furnished TRA. The estimated cost for the relocation of the 33-inch wastewater interceptor is $26,500. Funding Source: Sufficient funds were budgeted for the Precinct Line Road Utility Adjustment project by Council in GN 89-04 on January 9, 1989. This amount will be adequate to cover the City fronting the $26,500 for the TRA line adjustment. Recommendation: It is recommended the Council approve Resolution No. 95-48.

It is my understanding that the assignment will include eighteen (18) right-of-way appraisals with temporary construction easements and an additional four (4) temporary construction easements separate from the right-of-way appraisals. All of these parcels are located along Rufe Snow Drive extending north from Onyx Drive to Glenview Drive. These appraisals will be in j] restricted report format; i. e., the report will include a brief description and market analysis of each parcel, a brief market data section, and pictures of the subject parcels and comparable sales. In addition, based on my observation of the survey and subject properties, there does not appear to be any improvement damages; hence, these appraisals will be based on the land only. The following is my proposed fee for the project: FOUR THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($4,500) This fee includes one copy of the report (per your request) and an estimated time of completion of four to five weeks from the date of commencement.

FAX 817/354-4389 Page 2, August 18, 1995 Holiday Lane, Section A2, plus Industrial at Browning Improvements Tabulation of Bids and Recommendation of Contract A ward This project includes either concrete or asphalt paving on Holiday Lane from Lewis Drive to Bogart Drive, plus new culverts at three locations; water line relocations; and traffic signalization improvements at Holiday Lane and Industrial Park Blvd. Contractors were asked to bid on eight (8) separate alternates as described below: I. This proposal includes 7-inch thick concrete paving on Holiday Lane plus associated drainage improvements and water line relocations. Holiday Lane must be constructed in halves so that 2-way traffic is maintained at all times except at the proposed culvert crossings at the "C-45" Channel (between Meadow Park and Jamaica Circle South), at Trinidad Drive, and at the Calloway Branch Channel where the existing culverts are to be removed and replaced with new structures. The total amount bid for this proposal includes the price of extra signing and barricades for detours around the culvert sites. The proposed western detour route is Lewis Drive - Rufe Snow - Industrial Park Blvd. - Tecnol Blvd. - Watauga Road. The proposed eastern detour route is Lola Drive - Susan Lee - North Richland Blvd. (See attached location map). The low bid for this proposal was J.L. Bertram for $1.924.977.78, for 300 Calendar Days. Ed Bell's bid is $1,994,322.16, which is $69,344.38 over J.L. Bertram's bid, and AP AC did not bid this option. IA. This proposal is the same as Proposal No. I, (concrete paving), but the Contractor must remove the existing culvert crossings in 2-sections and construct the new culverts in halves as required to maintain 2-way traffic across the culverts at all times. Two-way traffic shall be maintained on Holiday Lane along its full length from Lewis Drive to Bogart Drive, therefore, signing and barricading for side street detours will not be required. J.L. Bertram is the low bidder for this option in the amount of $2.024.977.78, for 360 Calendar Days. Therefore, it will cost an additional $100.000 and 60 extra days to keep 2-way traffic flowing over the bridge and culverts during construction, based on J.L. Bertram's concrete paving bid. 2. This is the same as Proposal No. I (close culverts), except Holiday Lane shall be paved with 8-inch thick asphalt in lieu of 7-inch thick concrete pavement. Two-way traffic is maintained everywhere except at the culvert crossings. The low bidder for this option is APAC for $1.726.022.21, for 360 Calendar Days. This is $84,562.78 lower than J.L. Bertram's asphalt bid, and it is $198,155.57 lower than J.L. Bertram's concrete paving bid, (proposal No.1). 2A. This is the same as Proposal No. lA except pavement is asphalt in lieu of concrete. Two-way traffic shall be maintained along the full length of Holiday Lane including culvert crossings. APAC bid $1.799.022.21 and 420 Calendar Days for this option. Therefore it will cost $73.000 more and 60 extra days to keep 2-way traffic flowing over the bridge and culverts during construction, based on APAC's asphalt paving bid.

ED BELL CONSTRUCTION 403,739.41 --- --- As indicated in the above table, if the Holiday Lane Contract is awarded to J.L. Bertram for the concrete option on Holiday Lane, then the Industrial at Browning intersection improvements can be constructed for $27.446.18 lower than Walt William's original bid in April, 1995. If the Holiday Lane Contract is awarded to APAC for the asphaIt alternate, then the cost of the Industrial at Browning intersection improvements would be $8.241. 82 higher than Walt William's original bid in April. Therefore, if the Holiday Lane concrete alternate is awarded to J.L. Bertram, then we would recommend that J.L. Bertram also be awarded the Industrial at Browning intersection work. However, if the Holiday Lane asphalt alternate is awarded to APAC, then we would recommend that the Industrial at Browning work be awarded to Walt Williams based on his original April bids, if Wà1t Williams will agree to not increase his April bid price more than $27,000. We would note that material price increases since April for concrete, reinforcing steel, etc., may preclude Walt Williams from honoring his April bid amount. Bids were previously received on April 10, 1995, for the Industrial at Browning intersection improvements. This project includes the following proposed improvements at the Industrial Drive and Browning intersection: 1. Reconstruct the intersection as required to flatten out the dips (valley gutters) across Industrial and improve the riding surfaces along both intersecting streets. This is accomplished by reconstructing the intersection with concrete paving and providing asphalt transition approaches to the intersection from all four directions along both Industrial and Browning Drives. 2. Construct underground storm drainage as required to intercept the surface stormwater runoff which was previously carried across the intersection by the valley gutters. The Page 4, August 18, 1995 Holiday Lane, Section A2, plus Industrial at Browning Improvements Tabulation of Bids and Recommendation of Contract A ward underground storm water is discharged into an existing downstream storm drain system west of the intersection into the railroad right-of-way. 3. Construct a fully actuated traffic signalization installation at the Industrial and Browning intersection, including opticom system, pedestrian crossing facilities, pavement striping and traffic control markings. The contractor will be required to furnish all signalization equipment except the traffic controller and conflict monitor devices. All traffic control equipment will be installed by the contractor.

Bertram, $1,036,580.98, for the concrete paving portion of this contract, is $132,071.57 more than the asphalt paving bid by APAC, $904,509.41, (14.60% more). The original C.I.P. budgets established for this project were based on asphalt paving, not concrete. APAC's overall bid of $2,100,520.93 is $190,267.57 lower that J.L. Bertram's overall bid of $2,290,788.50, (9.06% difference). Page 5, August 18, 1995 Holiday Lane, Section A2, plus Industrial at Browning Improvements Tabulation of Bids and Recommendation of Contract A ward SUMMARY OF AWARD RECOMMENDATION 1. Asphalt A ward If 8" Thick Asphalt on Holiday Lane is preferred, we would recommend award of Holiday Lane, Section A2, to APAC-Texas, Inc. However, we would recommend that the Browning at Industrial Improvements not be awarded to APAC. We would recommend that the City Staff negotiate with Walt Williams to construct the Industrial at Browning improvements for an amount not to exceed $27,000 over their original bid on April, 10, 1995. If the Holiday Lane culvert openings option is required, it will cost $73,000 more and take 60 days longer to keep Holiday Lane open to 2-way traffic across the bridge and culverts, if AP AC is awarded the asphalt contract. 2. Concrete Award If 7" Thick Concrete on Holiday Lane is preferred, we would recommend award of Holiday Lane, Section A2, to J.L. Bertram, Inc. We would also recommend award of the Industrial at Browning Improvements to J.L. Bertram since their re-bid price, is about $27,000 lower that Walt Williams bid price in April, 1995. If the Holiday Lane culvert openings option is required, it will cost $100,000 more and take 60 extra days to keep Holiday Lane open to 2-way traffic across the bridge and culverts, if J.L. Bertram is awarded the concrete contract. We will be present at the August 28, 1995, Council Meeting to answer any questions which you may have concerning this project. Meanwhile, please call if we can be of further service in this regard. ~tIJ~ RICHARD W. ALBIN, P.E. RW A/ra/Enc1osures/sids.375/ cc: Mr. C.A.

Paving -- 7" Thick, 49-foot BIB concrete pavement from the Calloway Branch Channel to Booth Calloway Road. Also included are sidewalks along each side of the roadway, and parking lot and landscaping repair work adjacent to the Hospital site. This is the Phase "B" section of Rodger Line Drive, which will connect to the existing Phase" A" section previously constructed by private developer. The low concrete paving bid by Larry H. Jackson is higher than anticipated due to the recent increase in concrete and reinforcing steel prices. The low bid concrete unit price by Larry Jackson is $21.50 per square yard, compared with $18.72 per square yard for the Strummer Drive project a year ago (a 15% increase). Also, lime for stabilized subgrade has gone up 1901 CENTRAL DR., SUITE 550 . BEDFORD, TEXAS 76021 .817/283-6211 . METRO 817/267-3367 . FAX 817/354-4389 Page 2 August 15, 1995 Rodger Line Drive, Phase "B", Paving, Drainage and Bridge Improvements Bid Tabulations and Recommendation of Contract A ward from $73.60 per ton in the Strummer Drive contract to $90.50 per ton (a 23 % increase). We would further note that the main cost difference in the low bidder, Larry Jackson, and the second low bidder, Orval Hall, is the amount bid for a single pay item called "Mobilization". Larry Jackson bid $15,000 for this item, and Orval Hall bid $117,235 (see detailed bid tabulation). 2. Drainage -- This includes storm drain construction in Rodger Line Drive which is designed to convey the lOO-year discharge in accordance with the latest Public Works Design Manual requirements. Drainage work also includes downstream channel excavation, rock rubble riprap, and concrete channel liner along the Calloway Branch Channel in the vicinity of the proposed bridge. We have obtained a 404 Permit approval for this work from the Corps of Engineers. Recommendations by the Corps have been incorporated into this project regarding channel slope stabilization, vegetative cover replacement, etc. The main difference in the engineer's estimate and the low bid is the price of channel excavation. The contractor bid $9.00 per cubic yard compared with an estimate of $4.00 per cubic yard. The higher price appears to be because of a large amount of rock in the channel bottom which will have to be excavated to provide proper drainage downstream from the bridge site. 3. Bridge -- This includes construction of a 4-Span, 49-foot BIB bridge across the Calloway Branch Channel along a curved alignment. Sidewalks, guard railing, and retaining walls are also included. The low bid for the bridge by the second overall low bidder, Orval Hall, is very close to the engineer's estimate. However, Larry Jackson's bid is about $138,000 higher than Orval Hall's bid. We would guess that this extra cost is due to Larry Jackson's plans to sub this part of the project out to another contractor, such as M.A. Vinson or Reece Construction Company. (We have no objection to either of these sub- contractors) . 4. Sewer -- This includes required miscellaneous sanitary sewer system adjustments along Rodger Line Drive. The low bid price for this section is about what we anticipated. The overall low bidder, Larry H. Jackson Construction, Inc., has recently complete other projects in North Richland Hills including the Timberhill Drainage Improvements, the Woods Lane Drainage Improvements project, the North Forty/Greenwood Way drainage project, and the Watauga Road (East) utility adjustments. Larry J. Jackson is also currently constructing the Walker's Branch Channel Improvements, Phase I, and the Rufe Snow Drive paving and Page 3 August 15, 1995 Rodger Line Drive, Phase "S", Paving, Drainage and Bridge Improvements Bid Tabulations and Recommendation of Contract A ward drainage improvements from Onyx Drive North to Glenview Drive. This contractor has performed well on all of these projects. We would note that the bids by all contractors for each section of this project were higher than anticipated, except for the sewer adjustment work, as shown in the table above. We understand, from recent conversations with other contractors that material costs have increased 20 to 30 percent in the last few months for many construction pay items including concrete, reinforcing steel, asphalt, etc., and the bids reflect these increased costs. We would note that the Highway Department took bids last week on over $250 million dollars worth of construction work, and all bids were over the State's engineer's estimates. The increased material costs along with the large volume of other construction work in progress accounts for the relatively high bids. Based on the bids received, and in the absence of any negative reports concerning the low bidder, we would recommend contract award to Larry H. Jackson Construction, Inc., 5112 Sun Valley Drive, Fort Worth, Texas 76119, in the total amount of $1,180,969.80, for a period of 365 Calendar Days We will be available at the August 28, 1995, Council meeting to answer any questions you may have concerning this project. ~úJ, ~ RICHARD W.
