Richland Hills Public Auditorium, as well as our policy pertaining to
other rooms available at the Recreation Center. Also attached is a
summary of t~e policy of thirteen other selected cities.
The City Council Committee that recommended the establishment of these

CITY COUNCIL ACTION ITEM
Attached is a proposed amendment to the Zoning Ordinance to insert a new section
regarding Sight Visibility Triangles. Recently, the City Council approved a new regulation
which requires construction of masonry screening walls along certain Collector streets
when a new subdivision is developed. Currently, there are no regulations to prevent the
construction of any structure, including masonry screening walls, in such manner at street
intersections from blocking sight visibility.
The proposed amendment establishes sight triangles at all street intersections. The
amendment does not regulate utility poles or traffic control devices, but gives the Public
Works Director the authority to regulate the placement of such structures when the
situation is determined to be hazardous.
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of this proposed ordinance
at their July 9th meeting.
RECOMMENDA TION
It is recommended that the City Council approve the recommendation of the Planning and
Zoning Commission.

Consideration of a proposed amendment to the Agenda Number: PZ 92-21
Zoning Ordinance #1080 regarding Extra Width
on Corner Lots. Ordinance No. 1824
Attached is a proposed ordinance amending the Zoning Ordinance regarding extra width
on corner lots in the R-2 and R-3 Single Family Residential districts.
Each residential zoning district contains regulations that establish minimum lot widths for
each lot. However, when corner lots are developed using the minimum lot width and side
yard setback lines, the buildable area is often insufficient to allow construction of a home
having normal width. In the past, this problem has not been as noticeable because the
building "footprints" were much smaller. At the present time, the average home size being
constructed in North Richland Hills is 2,300 square feet, and larger homes seem to be the
trend for the area. The larger home sizes are making it difficult to build on corner lots of
the present size.
The proposed ordinance changes the required corner lot widths in the R-2 district from 70
feet to 80 feet, and in the R-3 district from 65 feet to 75 feet. There are no changes to the
R-1 and R-1-S districts concerning extra width on corner lots.
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of this proposed ordinance
at their July 9th meeting.
RECOMMENDA TION
It is recommended that the City Council approve the recommendation of the Planning and
Zoning Commission.

corner lots to build a house after all the setback requirements
are satisfied. He asked Mr. LeBaron to explain the ordinance,
Mr. LeBaron stated that the 70 foot width in R-2 would remain
in an interior lot, but on the corner the width would be 80
feet. He stated that in R-3, the 65 foot interior lot width
would remain, but the corner lots would go to 79 feet.
Vice-Chairman Barfield asked for those wishing to speak to
come forward. There being none, Vice-Chairman Barfield
closed the Public Hearing.
Mr. Bowen asked how the 79 foot width came about.
Vice-Chairman Barfield stated that the 79 feet would give the
building area about a 50 foot width.
Mr. LeBaron stated that 75 foot would be adequate, but that
79 feet would mathematically give the same amount of
buildable area as an interior lot.
Vice-Chairman Barfield stated that at the work session, the R-
1 width has no problems, and the Commission may want to
consider removing it from the recommendation.
Mr. LeBaron stated that the same could be done for the R-1-S
district.
Vice-Chairman Barfield stated that the ordinance is too
complicated to push forward at this time, and that it could be
reworded and submitted at the next meeting.
Mr. Bowen stated that language may need to be added to
allow some type of relief from the ordinance, rather than it
being a hard and fast rule.
Vice-Chairman Barfield stated that certain situations may
cause a developer to lose a lot, which could make or break a
subdivision, and that it might be good to be flexible in certain
situations.
Mr. Bowen made the motion to table PZ 92-21. The motion
was seconded by Mr. Lueck, and the motion carried 5-0.
Public Hearing to consider the request 0 . or a

Public Hearing to consider the request of Redbud Agenda Number: PZ 92-23
Capital, Inc. to rezone Tract 387, T.K. Martin Survey,
Abstract 1055, from R-7-MF Multi-Family Residential to
R-2 Single Family Residential. This property is located on
the west side of Precinct Line Road, just south of the
Woodland Oaks Subdivision. Ordinance No. 1825
Redbud Capital is the owner of a 6.443 acre tract of land located on Precinct Line Road,
just south of the Woodland Oaks subdivision. They have submitted a request to rezone
this property to R-2 Single Family Residential. According to the recently adopted
Comprehensive Land Use Plan for the City, this area is designated as low density
residential. The request by Redbud Capital complies with the Plan.
,
,
The land is currently zoned for multi-family use. Given the surrounding land uses of single
family residential, multi-family use on the property would be inappropriate. Typically, multi-
family uses tend to cluster together in the same areas of a city, and are sometimes used
as a buffer between low density residential and commercial or retail type uses. The area
under consideration does not have those characteristics; single family is a more
appropriate use.
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of this request at their July
9th meeting.
I
I
.
I
RECOMMENDA TION
It is recommended that the City Council take action on the recommendation of the
Planning and Zoning Commission.

Public Hearing to consider a proposed amendment to theAgenda Number: PZ 92-26
Zoning Ordinance #1080 regarding the landscape requirement.
Ordinance No. 1828
Attached is a proposed ordinance which will delete the regulation which allows a business
to use the City parkway to satisfy the landscape requirements contained in the Zoning
Ordinance. Currently, a business is required to have ten percent of their lot landscaped.
However, a provision in the regulation allows the business to count the area between their
lot and the curb as part of their landscaped area. The Planning and Zoning Commission
wanted to remove this provision and require all new developments to satisfy the
landscaping requirements totally within the limits of their property.
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of this ordinance at their
July 23rd meeting.
RECOMMENDA TION
It is recommended that the City Council approve the recommendation of the Planning and
Zoning Commission.

Public Hearing to consider a proposed amendment to the Agenda Number: PZ 92-27
Zoning Ordinance #1080 regarding the ground floor residence
requirement. Ordinance No. 1829
There has been considerable discussion regarding the regulation which requires that IItwo-
thirds of the required floor area of every home be on the ground floor.1I Current market
trends in housing in this area are making this requirement difficult to achieve in every
case. The IItwo-thirds" rule is being considered for deletion to make the Zoning Ordinance
consistent with market trends, and to reduce the number of possible variances that could
be filed with the Board of Adjustment.
I
During discussion of the proposed amendment, the Planning and Zoning Commission
recommended changing the IItwQ-thirdsll to IIfifty percent.1I The Commission recommended
approval of the ordinance at their July 23rd meeting.
Attached is a proposed ordinance to amend the IItwo-thirdsll rule by changing it to IIfifty
percent.1I
e
Amending the ordinance to delete any reference to the ratio between the ground floor and
the second floor would produce the desired result with less confusion. An alternative
ordinance has been prepared for this purpose.
RECOMMENDA TION
I
,
I
¡
It is recommended that the City Council approve the ordinance deleting the last sentence
of paragraph 24.2, thereby eliminating any minimum ground floor requirements on a two
story house.

Subject:
Regulation of school zones - Ordinance No. 1830
Agenda Number: GN 92-96
This Ordinance amends Section 3.05 of Ordinance No. 722. Section 3.05 regulates
speed within school zones. All of the school zones in the City are covered by
this ordinance.
The amendment governs all streets surrounding or in such close proximity to a
school area that reduced speed zones are required. This amendment reflects
changes necessary since Section 3.05 was last revised by Ordinance No. 1758 in
August, 1991. The changes outlined in this new ordinance are as follows:
1)
Correct block number on Smithfield Road to a range of 7700-7900
inclusive for Green Valley Elementary.
Change afternoon school zone times from a beginning time of 2:30 p.m.
to a beginning time of 3:00 p.m. for all schools.
The above listed items are the only proposed changes to Ordinance No. 722,
Section 3.05. All changes correspond to Birdville I.S.D.'s proposed 1992 - 1993
attendance schedule.
2)
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the proposed Ordinance No. 1830 regulating speed within
School Zones be approved.

Systems. Ordinance #1831
GN 92-97
Attached is proposed ordinance number 1831 which will amend the Building
Code to delete requirements for automatic fire sprinkler systems in all
businesses where alcoholic beverages are sold. The Uniform Building
Code only requires fire sprinkler systems when the building exceeds
5,000 square feet. When this regulation was incorporated into the
Building Code in June of 1992, it was anticipated that other area cities
would be adopting similar regulations. However, a survey of neighboring
cities conducted this past week reveals no city requiring fire sprinkler
systems on all businesses where alcoholic beverages are sold.
The attached ordinance will bring North Richland Hills into consistency
with other area cities in the application of fire sprinkler systems.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve Ordinance #1831.

AMENDING ORDINANCE #1813, THE BUILDING ORDINANCE,
REGARDING AUTOMATIC FIRE SPRINKLER SYSTEMS;
PROVIDING A SEVERABILITY CLAUSE; PROVIDING A
SA VINGS CLAUSE; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, the City of North Richland Hills adopted a new building ordinance number
1813 on June 22, 1992; and
WHEREAS, the building ordinance contained an amendment to Section 3802.(c).1 of the
Uniform Building Code to require automatic fire sprinkler systems in all buildings where

WHEREAS, this regulation appears to be over-restrictive for small businesses; and
WHEREAS, the Uniform Building Code requires automatic fire sprinkler systems in
buildings having 5,000 square feet or more and where alcoholic beverages are served;
now therefore,
BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NORTH
RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS:
1.
THAT, Ordinance 1813, Section 20, Amendments to the Uniform Building Code,

Award Contract for Lease/Purchase Financing
ana Approve ora1nance NO. lH~~
Agenda Number: PU 92-26
City Council, at the July 27, 1992 council meeting, approved the
specifications for the lease/purchase financing proposal for the
Municipal Communications and the Automated Fingerprint
Identification Systems. Finance/Purchasing sent out 9 bid
packages to local banks and financial lenders. The results are
summarized as follows:

Consolidated Financial
Resources, Inc. $7,220.16
7.25%
$5,753.67
7.65%
An additional bid was received, but did not meet the
specifications.
The local banks were unable to respond to the proposal because of
restrictions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986. This act restricts
investments that a bank may have in a local government if a City
has issued more than $10,000,000 in debt in a calendar year. The
bond refunding for the City of North Richland Hills in March of
1992 placed the City over this limit.
The preliminary budget for 1992/93 estimated the payments to be
approximately $75,000. The actual payments to the low bidder
will be $84,513.60 annually. The difference of $9,513.60 for
1992/93 may be a reduction in the Debt Service Reserve.
Recommendation: It is recommended Council award the contract to
Sanwa GEL for the lease/purchase financing and approve Ordinance
No. 1832 levying the debt.

Dear Mr. Una:
5815516;# 2
Aa you and Mr. Anen Bogard requested, the North Central Texas Council of Governments hat
p.rformed two Regional Travel Modal forec..ts of alternatives for th. propo..d HolldlY Lln.
extension In North Rlchland Hili. Into the city ofI<ltU.r. The.. alternatlv.., whloh w.r.
derived from the North Tarrant County Regional Art.rlal Needs A.....ment Study. telted the .
North Rlohland HUle Thoroughfare Plan and a we.tern alignment of Holiday lane north of
Starnes Road Intersecting Bursey ROld at Doug!.s Lane. This refinement to the North
R'chland Hilla Thoroughfare Plan would Improve aocess from the northern partlon. of th, cJty
to tin east-west NQrth Tarrant County Parkway. Tlrmfnatlon of Holiday Lane at Burley Road
wou~d significantly hamper long-range mobility from these neighborhoods. R'ght-of-way for a
four-tane facility should be maintained.
Beth future land development and the proposed North Tarrant Parkway have th. potentia' to
positively Impact North Rlchland HUla. Based on the results of the alternatlvl analysle. WI
'recommend that North Rlohland HUla modify the ex).tlng Thoroughfare Plan d"lgnltlng
Holiday Lane 81 8 four-lane arter1a11n a more wIsterly alignment extending north to the new
