INFORMAL REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL

Date:
September 14, "1992
Subject:
Delta Society Award for Animal Care and Control Center
The Delta Society is an international organization whose purpose is to
advance the study of the human/animal bond and to promote physical and
emotional well being through the use of animal assistants and animal
assisted therapy.
At their annual conference held in Montreal this year they chose to
honor one of the animals who lives at the Animal Care and Control
Center and participates in the Pet Facilitated Therapy Program, "Warm
Hugs on Wheels" which is offered by the Animal Care and Control
Division.
Our oldest resident cat,"Oscar Ray Leonard" was chosen to receive the
"Jingles Award" for pet visitation which is given once each year to an
animal who is recognized as having provided outstanding service to the
community in the area of pet therapy. Oscar, who was nominated by the
Center volunteers who participate in the program, was chosen from
nominees from allover the country. We are particularly pleased that
he was chosen, because he is the first cat to ever win this award and
also the first animal sponsored by a governmental agency to win the
Jingles Award.
In July, Oscar was flown to Montreal by the Delta Society to receive
his award, which included a check for $1,000, at the 6th International
Conference: "Animals & Us." His category was one of five awards given
by the Delta Society which also included recognition of outstanding
guide dog, hearing dog and assistance animals.
Oscar will be featured in several national magazines, and he will also
be used in training tapes by the Del ta Society to encourage other
agencies to use cats in their pet therapy programs. We have already
received positive feed back on his award from around the country and
have been encouraged to seek radio and television coverage of his
award.
The $1,000 will be placed in the Shelter Donation fund and will be used
to encourage pet adoptions and responsible pet ownership and to enhance
the pet facilitated therapy program.
It should be noted that the success of the "Warm Hugs on Wheels"
program is due largely in part to a small group of dedicated volunteers
as well as several remarkable animals, one of which is "Oscar."

INFORMAL REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
No. IR 92-114
Date: September 9, 1992
Subject: Closing of Streets along Bedford-Euless Road.
The proposed widening of Bedford-Euless Road from Grapevine Highway to Strummer
Drive presents an opportunity to consider closing some of the streets which extend
northward. Approximately two years ago, the Planning and Zoning Commission
conducted meetings with the neighbors living in the triangular shaped area bounded by
Bedford-Euless Road on the south, Grapevine Highway along the north and Strummer
Drive on the east. The purpose of those meetings was to identify a plan for closing some
of the streets which intersect with Bedford-Euless Road and thereby eliminate the
amount of "cut through" traffic. No action was taken by the Planning and Zoning
Commission with regards to forwarding a recommendation to the City Council because
no clear cut plan surfaced as a result of those neighborhood meetings.
The proposed widening of Bedford-Euless Road suggests that the City again consider a
plan for closing some of the streets. The Fire Department was requested to submit a
recommendation that best reflects their concerns· for providing fire protection services to
the area. Their suggestions were discussed with Dan Boutwell, a representative of the
firm Planning Resources Group and the same firm which prepared the City Master Plan.
Boutwell's review concurred with those of the Fire Department.
The recommendations are to close Ash St. because it is so near the intersection of
Bedford-Euless Road and Grapevine Highway that "cut through" traffic is a severe
problem. It is also recommended to close Wyoming Trail to reduce the number of
intersections along Bedford-Euless Road. As an extra consideration, the City may want
to close Grove St. to further reduce the number of street intersections.
Should the City Council wish to incorporate these recommendations into the Bedford-
Euless Road widening project, it may be appropriate to notify the owners of property
fronting on such streets prior to taking such action.
City Council guidance is requested.
Respectfully submitted,

August 26, 1992
Revision of Council Rules of Procedure
Relating to Reconsideration
The procedure to be followed in reconsideration of actions taken by the
City Council is specified in Section 6.10 of Ordinance #984, as
follows:
IIA motion to reconsider any action of the City Council can be made
not later than the next succeeding official meeting of the City
Council. The proposal to reconsider an action previously taken
mav be discussed at the Pre-Council Meetina prior to the said next
succeedina official meetina, but the vote on reconsideration shall
be taken at the official meetina. A motion to reconsider can only
be made by a member who voted with the majority. It can be
seconded by any member. It can be made, seconded and voted upon
even though it is not on the formal agenda. The motion to
reconsider shall require a majority vote to carry. No question
shall be reconsidered twice except by unanimous consent of the
City Council, except that action relating to any contract may be
reconsidered at any time before the final execution thereof. II
(Emphasis supplied)
Mayor Brown has proposed that this procedure be amended to require that
all discussions of proposals to reconsider be held in formal Council
Meetings. The philosophy behind this proposal is that citizens who
observe action being taken at one Council Meeting should be privy to
all the discussions which may lead to such actions being changed at a
subsequent meeting.
If the Council wishes to make the proposed change, it can be
accomplished by deleting the wording underlined above, and replacing it
with the following:
IIAII discussions related to a proposal to reconsider, as well as
the vote on reconsideration, shall be taken at the official
meeting. II
City Council guidance is requested.

National Youth Sports Coaches Association Awards
In November, 1986, the City Council passed Resolution No, 86-39
requiring certification of all coaches in youth sports programs that use
city facilities. Implementation of the National Youth Sports Coaches
Association (NYSCA) Certification Program began January 1, 1987.
The NYSCA Certification Program instructs the coaches in sports
psychology, maximizing performance, injury prevention, first aid, drug
awareness and sportsmanship.
The City of North Richland Hills was the first city in the state of
Texas to mandate NYSCA certification. since then, many cities have
followed suit and required certification of youth sports coaches.
In July 1991 Monica Sue Walsh became District Coordinator for District
VI, which encompasses 20 counties in Texas, and is currently responsible
for ten chapters in the area. Ms. Walsh is in the process of .
establishing new chapters in the H-E-B area and at the NE-YMCA. This
District had the second highest number of coaches certified in fiscal
year ,1992 out of eight districts statewide.
North Richland Hills Parks & Recreation received three awards at the
NYSCA State Executive Directors/Coordinators Annual Conference in San
Antonio, August 18-22, 1992. Ms. Walsh, and Mr. Carroll Scruggs,
Mr. Leslie Pack, Ms. Denise Bryant, Ms. Jeri Piner, and Ms. LaTayne
Schenault, representatives from the Richland Youth Association (RYA),
accepted the following awards:
"Most Improved Chapter"
"Chapter Producti vi ty Award"
"Chapter Director Award"
The city placed second in "Most Improved Chapter" with a 110% increase
of 357 additional coaches trained this year. We also placed third in
"Chapter Productivity" with a total of 749 coaches being certified. San
Antonio placed first with 1,073 coaches certified and Houston placed
second with 962 coaches certified. Considering the size of San Antonio
and Houston, the City of North Richland Hills did very well.
Congratulations are in order for Monica Sue Walsh, recipient of the
"Chapter Director Award", for her outstanding work with this worthwhile
program and to commend the youth sports volunteers who made this program
a success!

establishments, one of which stated that they were surprised and pleased that
the city would ask for their opinion and input.
We are in the process of having the display signs printed and will commence
with the program as soon as these are ready. We hope to have the first ones
in establishments by the middle of September. The Health Inspectors will be
placing them in establishments as they inspect each business.
In review the following criteria will be used:
OUTSTANDING:
Establishment that scores 95 or above with no critical
violations during the past two inspections.
EXCEEDS
EXPECTATIONS:
Establishment that scores 85 or above with no critical
violations.

Authorization to Proceed with Negotiations
for RIIr~AY Rn~rl ~Aninr ArllJlt~ Parking Lot Property Agenda Number: GN 92-106
On January 27, 1992 as GN 92-11, the Council approved recommending the subject project to the
County for its 18th year CDBG Project. The County has approved the recommendation and
authorized Knowlton-English-Flowers, Inc. to proceed with the engineering design.
As noted before in GN 92-11 , there are two alternatives for the subject parking lot location. It can
be located to the east or west of the Bursey Road Senior Adults Center. Staff recommends it to be
on the west side of the Center. This is on a level equal to the elevation of the Center and would be
easier to access than the east side which drops off rather quickly. The west location also will be at
the top of the hill on Bursey Road and will therefore have much better sight distance for the
motorists leaving the parking lot than the east location.
The west location is in the Keller city limits on property currently owned by Ms. Eunice Travis. Ms.
Travis' property is also the one remaining parcel of land to be purchased for the widening of Bursey
Road and we currently are in negotiations tor this right-ot-way. We are now prepared to negotiate
for the additional 0.9 acre of parking lot area per your authorization. Although these projects, Bursey
Road widening and the Senior Center, are separate projects and may be resolved separately, we
would like to begin negotiations at this time on the parking lot acreage.
Recommendation:
It is recommended Council authorize the City Manager to proceed with negotiations for the .
acquisition ot property from Ms. Travis for use as a parking lot for the Bursey Road Senior Adults
Center.

The reorganization of the Park/Recreation and Library Departments
was also tentatively agreed upon for the new budget year. The
proposed structure creates a Department of Community Services.
The attached organizational chart was presented to City Council
at the budget retreat.
The present departmental structure includes two Director
positions -- Park/Recreation and Library. The proposed
realignment would reclassify the Library and Park/Recreation
Directors to a Manager level supervised by a Director of
Community Services. The salary range for the new director and
the reclassification are listed as follows:
Current Ranae
Proposed Ranoe
Director of Park/Recreation
and Library reclassified to
Manager
$35,736-$53,172
$33,906-$49,712
Director of Community
Services
$41,004-$61,008
Additionally there will be a Division Manager for Parks/Public
Grounds and the upgrade of a Recreation Supervisor. The new
range for the Park/Public Grounds Managers will be the same as

identified above for the Library and Recreation Manager. The
upgrade of the Recreation Supervisor is:
Current Ranoe
Proposed Ranoe
Recreation Supervisor
$16,956-$25,188
$18,684-$27,744
The total cost to implement the proposed Community Services
Department will be $145,552 additional cost to the General Fund,
which will be offset by the one half cent sales tax as described
below.
Special Revenue Fund - One Half Cent Sales Tax
A new fund will be created to handle the one half cent sales tax
proceeds and account for all Park/Recreation Capital Improvement
Projects. The only purpose for this fund is to account for
revenues derived from the sales tax and to disburse funds for the
projects and pay the debt on the bonds issued. The costs
involved in administering the new program can be expensed to the
new CIP Projects as a General and Administrative Fee and will be
a cost reduction to the General Fund. As indicated above the new
organization will cost $145,552.
It is proposed at a minimum that this cost be recovered. The
General Fund revenue and the Community Services budget would be
modified to reflect the new revenue and the additional expenses
for the new personnel. It is also suggested that a formal
indirect cost study be performed in the near future to determine
the correct amount to be charged.
The initial 1992/93 budget for the optional sales tax fund as
reviewed by City Council at the budget retreat has been modified.
As indicated above the only function of the new fund is to
accommodate the accounting for the revenue and distribution of

Calloway Creek, wi thin the drainage easement acqui red f rom the
Englers. The City agrees that the Engler Trust, their
successors or assigns, shall have the access to and use of the
drainage easement for drainage purposes of the Engler property,
as such property is developed in the future. The Englers, their
successors and assigns, shall not be required to make any
additional improvements to this drainage channel, at the time of
such development.
3. The City agrees that as it constructs the drainage
channel, it will notify the Englers of any excess dirt excavated
from the easement. The Englers shall have the right to have
such dirt deposited on the adjacent Engler property, by the
City. All such work will be done at the City's sole cost and
expense and the dirt shall be deposited in such locations as the
Englers may designate. In the event the Englers elect not to
receive the excess dirt from the excavation, the City shall be
free to dispose of it in its customary manner.
4. The City agrees that if at any time in the future
additional improvements are required to the Calloway channel,
the City will not require that the Englers, their successors or
assigns, to construct a concrete lined channel, but will permit
construction of an earthen lined channel. The City further
agrees that when such improvements are made, it will provide the
sum of $65, 000. 00 to be used toward the improvements to the
Calloway channel from Wautagua Road to the railroad tracks on
the south boundary of the Engler property.
5. The city agrees to bear the entire cost of maintaining
the drainage channel to be constructed in the 75 foot wide
easement, purchased from the Englers. The Ci ty further agrees

maintain the channel after such improvement at its sole cost and
expense. No separate maintenance agreement will be required of
the Englers, their successors or assigns.
6. In paragraph 3 of the Right of Way and Paving Agreement
between the Engler Estate, Mrs. Engler and the City, dated
December 21, 1987, the Englers agreed to pay one fourth (not to
exceed $35,000.00) of the installation of a signalized railroad
crossing at the extension of Industrial Boulevard (now known as
Tecnol Boulevard). The Englers and the City now agree that as
part of the consideration for this agreement, the Englers can
assign that obligation to the City and that cost incurred by the
City shall be offset against its obligation to pay $65,000.00 on
the Calloway branch improvements. (For example, if the actual
cost of the signalized railroad crossing attributable to the
Englers was $34,000.00, that amount will be paid by the City and
the City's share of the Calloway branch improvements will be
reduced by like amount.)
