Both grants are administered through the Texas Forest Service and the Texas Urban Forestry Council. The grants total $13,750.00 and are both matching grants. The approved grants allow the City's portion to be matched by "in-kind" services in lieu of matching dollars. Therefore, it will not be necessary to make any special appropriation. Small Business Administration - National Tree Plantinq Grant The purpose of this grant program is to plant trees on land owned or controlled by the state or local government by obtaining services or supplies from small business owners. The North Richland Hills project proposal consists of planting 50 trees on the medians of Harwood Road near Tarrant County Junior College. The grant amount awarded is $6,750.00. The City's matching portion of "in-kind" services will include a three (3) year maintenance period of watering, pruning, pest control, and fertilizing the trees. America The Beautiful - Texas Initiative Challenqe Grant proqram The North Richland Hills Parks and Recreation Department recently applied for and received a matching grant from the "America the Beautiful" - Texas Tree Initiative Grant Program. The grant application was approved in the amount of $7,000.00. The project submitted was the joint development of a tree farm by the City with the Birdville Independent School District and North Ridge Elementary P.T.A.. The attached report details the project. The City's matching portion of the grant will be "in-kind" services provided by the Parks and Recreation Department, Birdville Independent School District Staff and volunteers. Both grant projects and applications were coordinated and prepared by Tim Hightshoe of our Public Grounds Division. The Parks and Recreation Board has endorsed both grant projects and voted unanimously to request that Council approve the forthcoming resolutions to accept these grants and commit "in-kind" resources as our local match. The Resolutions will be presented to Council within the next 45 days pending final authorization by the Texas Forest Service.

Texas 76180 May 7, 1991 Mr. Joe Bill Fox Superintendent Birdville Independent School District 6125 East Belknap Fort Worth, Texas 76117 Dear Mr. Fox: The North Richland Hills Parks and Recreation Department was recently contacted by Sandy Orlich, of the North Ridge Elementary P.T.O., regarding the possibility of the joint development of a tree farm at North Ridge Elementary School. A meeting was held on April 26, 1991 between Ms. Orlich, Ms. Louise Moll and the North Richland Hills Parks and Recreation Department Staff in regards to this project. Objectives of the cooperative program were discussed and are presented below. CITY/SCHOOL TREE FARM OBJECTIVES 1. To broaden the school's curriculum by supplying the school with pamphlets on subjects such as photosynthesis, tree care, fertilizing, watering, planting, leaf shapes, etc.. 2. To give hands-on experience on planting, weeding, watering and the fertilization of trees. 3. To enhance school grounds and the community as a whole by adding trees. 4. To educate children on the benefits we receive from trees. 5. To involve community groups, i.e., P.T.O., Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, etc.. 6. To build a stronger working relationship between the city of North Richland Hills and the Birdville Independent School District. The Birdville Independent School District would maintain sole ownership of the property. I ~ I I I I I I I . I I I I I I I , I However, before this project can be pursued, a commitment allowing use of the property must be made. The property required would be 140 feet x 140 feet. This project would not be just a "tree farm" but a new educational tool to be added to the curriculum for these children. FUNDING Funding is essential in order for this project to be successful. The City of North Richland Hills Parks and Recreation Department is currently working with Larry Schaapveld, of the Texas Forestry Service in an effort to obtain a grant from the America the Beautiful - Texas Initiative. The maximum matching grant amount would be $10,000 per project. However, the participants would have to match the amount it receives in the grant. The city of North Richland Hills and Birdville Independent School District could match this funding by using "in-kind" services. We believe this project provides an opportunity to expand community involvement and build stronger relations between Birdville Independent School District and the City of North Richland Hills. But most importantly this project will be used as a tool to help educate the children in our community of the importance of our environment. The City of North Richland Hills Parks and Recreation Department, Parks and Recreation Board and Beautification Commission asks for your support in making this proposed project a reality.

To provide expert personnel to apply any and all pesticides. 2. To provide weekly checks on trees for disease, insects, weeding and proper watering. 3. To help contact guest speakers for classes. 4. To supply school with brochures on such subjects as pruning, fertilizing, benefits of trees, site selection, etc.. 5. To inform the school and fOllow-up on any problems that occur at the tree farm. BIRDVILLE INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT RESPONSIBILITIES: 1. To build a tree awareness curriculum around this project. 2. To make a long term commitment on property involved. 3. To maintain trees after transplanted on school property. 4. To educate children on special holidays such as Earth Day and Arbor Day. 5. To inform other schools about tree awareness. 6. To help with maintenance on trees with either staff or through volunteer groups such as PTO, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, etc.. I ~ I I I I I I I "AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL- TEXAS INITIATIVE" CHALLENGE GRANT PROJECT DESCRIPTION Description of Project: The North Richland Hills Tree Awareness Program was developed to educate the children in our community about trees. From this effort we anticipate to sending 30 teachers to the Project Learning Tree Seminar offered by the Texas Forest Service. This would give the teachers the ability to prepare lesson plans involving tree awareness. North Ridge Elementary School will devote one (1) hour per week to all third graders on this program. A tree farm containing 196 trees would also be used as an educational tool to further develop an understanding of the importance of proper pruning, fertilizing, pest control and watering. This group of children, 3rd graders, would have "hands-on" experience in all the above mentioned maintenance practices. The trees in this farm would provide an effective educational tool for several years. Once the trees in the farm have reached a two (2) inch caliper they would be planted on campus and distributed to other schools within the district. These trees could be planted in conjunction with Arbor Day and Earth Day celebrations at each school. ~oordination: Coordination is essential with so many project sponsors. Since this grant is being applied for by the City of North Richland Hills, our staff will be responsible for coordination between all parties. We will accomplish this through monthly meetings, letters and memos. This I will enable the City of North Richland Hills to facilitate all matters efficiently, effectively and professionally. City staff is currently rWOrking in cooperation with the Birdville I.S.D. Curriculum Specialist, to develop a specific education curriculum for this project. I I I I I I Through the North Richland Hills Tree Awareness Program we can educate a large number of children in our community. !lÞpurpose of the Project: Our goals for this project are quite simple, 1) to educate the children in our community about the importance of trees through "hands-on" training, guest speakers, brochures and,other educational tools, 2) to increase community involvement by 'having as many volunteer groups as possible involved, 3) to enhance school grounds by providing trees from their own tree farm to celebrate holidays such as Arbor Day and Earth Day. project Sponsors: The following is a list of groups that will be actively involved in this program. 1. 2. 3. 4.

I I Communication: This will be handled through our Parks and Recreation involved will be able to access the Parks and Recreation Administrative office during regular business hours. Monthly meetings and newsletters will keep all parties well informed on all aspects of this project. I I I I I I I , I City staff would inspect the farm weekly to check for signs of fungus, insects, disease and to ensure proper watering and weeding. The City, along with. Birdville Independent School District, would be responsible for the maintenance of these trees while in the tree farm. However, after the .trees are transplanted on to other areas, Birdville I.S.D. will be responsible for ongoing maintenance. Interest in this program has grown tremendously since its inception in May, 1991. City staff along with the educators in our community, feel that the tre~ farm will a great tool for developing tree awareness with the school children. At a time when children hear on the news about global warming, heat islands, destruction of rain forests and other environmental tragedies, it is imperative to educate the children as to what they can do to make a difference. I I I I I I Use of Volunteers: project, such as: Volunteers will be used for many aspects of this Tree Farm - labor - maintenance - watering - weeding Curriculum - brochure development - recruit guest speakers - coordinate field trips - associated projects Most importantly, the volunteers will be utilized to spread the word about this program and to encourage this type of project at every school within the District. Maintenance of Trees: A schedule has been developed for this program including tilling of area, pruning, fertilization, weeding and watering. The America the Beautiful Grant Program provides an opportunity to fund this unique and important program.

This expansion will include "hands-on" activities that will facilitate meaningful learning experiences. Such ex- periences will include describing thecompone.nts'of soil, predicting and measuring the growth of trees, describing the relationship between temperature and tree growth, identifying the stages of development of buds into leaves, classifying the leaves by their characteristics, distinguishing trees through descriptions of bark characteristics, predicting the interrelationships between insects and trees, designing and creating a compost, collecting data on the effects of fertilizers, and making recycled paper. These activities will provide every student the opportunities for problem recognizing, clarifying, and resolving through a process approach. 4~d-1fi ~ Birdville Independent School District NORTHEAST TARRANT COUNTY - Serving the Greater Fort Worth Areas of Haltom City, Hurst, N.

APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES The minutes of the May, 1991 meeting were approved as submitted. ITEM 3: DISCUSSION OF STATE HIGHWAY ISLANDS (GRAPEVINE HIGHWAY) Ms. Dunkelberg reported conversations with Glenn Elliott of the District State Highway Department have progressed to the point of informing the Commission that State Highway 26 islands do qualify for the State Department of Highway's Landscape Cost Sharing Program. Mr. Moore made a motion to proceed with the planning with the state Highway Department and authorizing Ms. Dunkelberg to meet and discuss with Barry LeBaron (since this falls under economic development). The motion was seconded and carried. By mutual consent it was agreed to not discuss this project with the bordering cities at this time. ITEM 4: DISCUSSION OF "ADOPT-A-SPOT" Ms. Davis discussed our "Adopt-a-Spot" and encouraged us to remember our week. The sign and the trash can are not installed yet. We have had some pub~ieity in the paper. Ms. Davis will present our "Adopt a spot" Program to the Chamber of Commerce Luncheon on June 20. Ms. Robinson will also attend and assist her. ITEM 5: DISCUSSION OF CHRISTMAS TREE Ms. Davis presented several options available for the Christmas Tree. Ms. Moore made a motion to buy a small tree now for later years and continue with the "Tree of Lights". This will require an expenditure of between $2,000 - $3,000 for new lights, fuses, etc.. Discussion followed. The motion carried unanimously. Concern about the timing of the landscaping at the Community Center parking lot was expressed and an alternate site was discussed. ITEM 6: DISCUSSION OF "KEEP TEXAS BEAUTIFUL" Ms. Davis announced that Ms. Scoma, Ms. Robinson and Ms. Dunkelberg were registered to attend the "Keep Texas Beautiful" Convention in PIano. She announced Laidlaw would pay the expenses for a teacher from North Richland Hills to attend and we were to name the teacher. Ms. Davis will pursue this and pick a teacher for us. Ms. Robinson announced that the city of Harlingen won the "Keep Texas Beautiful" Award for Category 6 (cities with a population of 25,001 - 60,000). North Richland Hills won the Proud Participant Award. This award is given to the fifth place city. Haltom City came in fourth place. Discussion followed in reference to our city not having citY'Staff for beautification and other methods· we can employ to win the award next year. ITEM 7: DISCUSSION OF NUISANCE ORDINANCE PUBLICITY Ms. Davis distributed the City of Haltom city's Nuisance Ordinance pamphlet. This is one of. the requirements for the "Keep Texas Beautiful" Award. The most violated nuisance ordinances in North Richland Hills are grass, weeds and debris in yards. Our job is to inform the citizens. It was decided every member to read the copy of North Richland Hills' Nuisance Ordinance and bring five recommendations for a pamphlet to the next meeting. Ms. Davis is to check with Lee Maness about mailing the pamphlet with water bills. Also she will mail copies o~ the ordinances to the absent members. ITEM 8: DISCUSSION OF. OTHER ITEMS NOT ON AGENDA It was announced that the planting on Watauga Road has been started. Mr. Taylor will be leaving July 1 and was checking to see if everything he was responsible for was taken care of in his absence. Great concern was expressed about the plans for the landscaping of the courtyard at the Community Center and the Commission recommended several improvements to be considered. More year round color is needed. For three (3) weeks in the spring the courtyards as designed will be beautiful. However, there are 52 weeks in the year. Some evergreen plant material should be used in the landscape. Another concern expressed was that because there was no scale available, we could not be certain the Bradford Pears were a proper distance from the foundation (should be at least 15 feet). Concern was expressed over the sun line. We are of the belief that the Bradford Pears and the flower beds will not get enough sun in the planned locatíon. Also in the last few years, the Aristocrat Pear has proven to be a better decorative tree than the Bradford Pear. Ms. Davis announced the next meeting would be July 2, 1991.

ITEM 3: NEW RULES AND POLICIES - ORDINANCE 1756 Ms. Davis explained the changes in new Ordinance #1756 defining the Beautification Commission's role and powers. Mr. Browne continued by explaining that the Commission would make recommendations to the City council for major projects (over $5,000 on city grounds) and programs designed to improve the appearance of the City and the purpose of the Commission. Ms. Spurlock also commented on the importance of the new Ordinance and the Commission's role in the City. Ms. Spurlock also gave the information of a possible sightline problem at the intersection of Watauga Road and College Circle due to some of the plantings. Further discussion was held by the Commission. ITEM 4: DISCUSSION OF NUISANCE ORDINANCE BOOKLET After discussion was held it was decided that the goal of the Nuisance Ordinance Booklet is to "educate the citizens" of nuisance ordinances in a "did you know?" format. Mr. Barry LeBaron, Community Development Director, has offered his assistance for this booklet. Mr. Lee Maness, Director of Finance, has offered "stuffing" the booklet in the water bill for distribution.

ADJOURNMENT . . Mr. Fenimore made a motion adjourn. Mr. Lambert seconded the motion. Vote was unanimous in favor of the motion to adjourn at 8:43 P.M.. ,: Don Tip - - Chairman Gin onzalez Recording Secretar ATTEST: I CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS Community Development 9/9/91 epartment: I Council Meeting Date: PZ 91-18 Agenda Number: SUbject: Public Hearing for Request of J. Michael Stephens With ]MC ProPQrtiQ~ to ~Q:l9RQ lQt~ IIi thr'l 22Y J, Block 7, and Lots 27R thru 36R, Block 14, Smithfield Acres Addition, From Their Present Classification of R-2 Single Family Residential to R-2-1600 Single Family Residential. This Property is Located on Both Sides of Timberlane Drive, West of Davis Boulevard and North of Turner Drive. Mr. Mike Stephens with JMC Properties submitted a request to rezone 22 residential lots from R-2 to R-3. However, at the August 8th Planning and Zoning Commission meeting the members agreed to modify the request to consider rezoning the property to R-2-1600. The owner is interested in constructing homes with approximately 1,600 square feet but, the R-2 zoning district requires a minimum of 1,800 square feet. The owner feels that the market will not support the larger 1,800 square foot homes in this location and is requesting that the property be rezoned to allow a smaller minimum home size similar to those which currently exist in the neighborhood. I Neighbors attending the August 8th P & Z meeting submitted a written petition objecting I to the consideration for rezoning the property to R-3 due to the 1,400 square foot home allowed in the R-3 zoning district. When the surrounding properties were developed the _ZOning Ordinance only required a 1,600 square foot minimum. When a written petition objecting to a proposed zoning district change is filed with the city, it may place additional voting requirements on the City Council. After reviewing the petition, it . has been determined that the property owners signing the petition have more than the required 20 percent minimum property within 200 feet of the effected zoning district change. Therefore, an affirmative vote of at least 75 percent of the City Council will I be required to change the zoning district. I . ~ I I Ordinance 111760 The Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed this request at their August 8th meeting and recommended that the property be rezoned to R-2-1600. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council hold the required Public Hearing and consider the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission. ~ ~ I Source of Funds: /6 Bonds (GO/Rev.) 1- Operating Budget 1 Other I Finance Review Acct.

Michael Stephens with JMC Properties to rezone Lots 11R thru 22R, Block 7, and Lots 27R thru 36R, Block 14, Smithfield Acres Addition, from their present classification of R-2 Single Family Residential to R-3 Single Family Residential. This property is located on both sides of Timberlane Drive, west of Davis Boulevard and north of Turner Drive. Vice Chairman Barfield opened the Public Hearing and called for those wishing to speak in favor of this request to please come forward. Vice Chairman Barfield said there had been a petition filed with the city in opposition to this request. I Page 2 Ie P & Z Minutes August 8, 1991 I I I I I I I Ie I I I I I I I Ie I Mike Stephens with JMC Properties came forward. He stated this property was originally zoned R-2 with a minimum of 1600 square foot homes. He said the zoning ordinance was changed in January of this year to a minimum of 1800 square feet for R-2 and all he wants to do is to go back to the 1600 square foot minimum. Mr. Stephens said the 1600 square foot minimum has been in existence since the subdivision was developed in 1985. He said all the existing houses were built during the time it was under the 1600 square foot minimum. Mr. Stephens said there were a total of 48 lots and 15 of those houses were built under the old guidelines. He said there are 33 vacant lots left, but he is only asking for this change on the 22 lots on Timberlane which abutts on the west 20 to 22 year old homes that are from 1100 to 1300 square feet. He said some have the garage converted to make them 1300 square feet. Mr. Stephens said on Cox Lane, directly across the street on the south, the houses are 19 to 26 years old and are 1100 to 1300 square feet also. He said it would be hard to get someone to want an 1800 square foot house which abutts 1100 square feet homes that are 25 years old. Mr. Stephens stated he is not asking for any lots to be replatted; all he wants is for the square footage to go back to what it has been for the last 6 years. He said this property has been used for a dumping ground for couches, TV's, washers, and anything you can think of, and he has spent several thousand dollars to clean it up. Vice Chairman Barfield called for anyone else wishing to speak in favor of this request to please come forward. I Page 3 Ie P & Z Minutes August 8, 1991 I I I I I I I Ie I I I I I I I Ie I There being no one, the Vice Chairman called for those wishing to speak in opposition to please come forward. Kenneth Gantos, 7108 Cook Circle, came forward. He said he is representing the homeowners affected by this request. Mr. Gantos said they had submitted a petition in opposition to this rezoning. He said they do not see any advantages for them. He said they realize the market hasn't been excellent, but it is getting better, homes are selling. Mr. Gantos said the homes built in the area do come up to the current zoning. He said if the zoning is changed, it will hurt their property value. He said they usually purchase property to make money on it, but he feels with the smaller priced homes in that area will hurt their property values. Mr. Gantos said the builder does not live there so he really does not have an interest there; his interest is to build homes and sell them. He said that maybe the lower priced homes are selling now and that is a better deal for him. Mr. Gantos said they hope the city would be in their favor because a larger home would require more taxes. He said he felt the smaller homes would bring in lower income families. He said they might not could afford to maintain their property as they do. Mr. Gantos asked how much it costs to file for rezoning; what sort of impact does it have on the builder as to what impact it would be on them. Ms. Calvert said the fee is $300.00. Mr. Gantos asked, if approved, then they could just start building. Vice Chairman Barfield said the P & Z Commission is only a recommending body to the City Council. He said the City Council makes the final decision. I Page 4 Ie P & Z Minutes August 8, 1991 I I I I I I I Ie I I I I I I I Ie I Mr. Gantos said he had not seen a lot of rezoning going on. He said he felt there would be opposition if you go into a neighborhood of larger homes and request smaller homes. He said there would be no advantage to having mixed sizes of homes. Mr. Gantos said they do not feel this rezoning is to their best interest. Vice Chairman Barfield asked what his address was. Mr. Gantos said he lives at 7108 Cook Circle. Vice Chairman Barfield asked how many houses on Cook Circle were over the 1600 square feet. Mr. Gantos said to his knowledge, the smallest is 1750 sq. feet with the largest being 2100 to 2200 sq. feet. Vice Chairman Barfield asked about the street to the west of this property, Lowery; what size homes are there. Mr. Gantos said he could not address that. Mr. Lueck asked the price range of the homes on his street. Mr. Gantos said when he moved into the area, the houses were going from $98,000 to $125,000 depending on the model you wanted to buy. He said the builder went under and the homes were purchased by Nowlin Savings and were sold at a lower price which he thinks were in the 80's or 90's. Toni McWilliams, 7125 Cook Circle, came forward. She said she was the one who did the petition. She said she went up and down on Lowery Street. She said the homes on Lowery Street begin larger on the south end of the street. Ms. McWilliams said she I Page 5 ~ P & Z Minutes August 8, 1991 I I I I I I I ~ I I I I I I I Ie I would assume they were 2100 or 2200 square feet and the others are probably 1400 or 1500. Vice Chairman Barfield asked if she was saying the houses on Lowery were as large as the ones on Cook Circle. Ms. McWilliams said some of them are. She said her home is 3200 square feet. Mr. Gantos said even though they are not within 200 feet of this property, there are people who signed the petition and are here and would like to speak. Vice Chairman Barfield said anyone in the city can speak. Jim Koss, 7105 Carolenna Court, came forward. He said he lives east of the property in question. He said his house is 2800 square feet of living space and his next door neighbor is equal or more. He said he has a basement living area which adds to the square footage and is finished out very nice. Mr. Koss said he has one neighbor that is thinking of selling his house and it has been appraised way down already. He said he has invested $175,000 in the house or more; it is a very nice house, but the appraisals are coming back very low, and if the other houses in the area are made smaller, he does not know what it would do. Mr. Koss said they take good care of their property. He said 2 years ago he was awarded by the City Council the yard of the month. He said they take a lot of pride in their neighborhood and would like to keep the same feel, the same income people. Mary Ann Welborn, 7109 Carolenna Court, came forward. She said they are not within the 200 feet, but they feel they would be impacted with the I Page 6 ~ P & Z Minutes August 8, 1991 I I I I I I I ~ I I I I I I I Ie I smaller lots. She said in many ways, they feel North Richland Hills is responsible to us as homeowners to uphold the existing zoning that was in place when they purchased their homes. Ms. Welborn said they feel the smaller lot size would depreciate their property. Vice Chairman Barfield said this is not a replatting, the lot size will not change. Ms. Welborn said she meant the living space. Vice Chairman Barfield said the zoning was restricted to 1600 square feet and the applicant is not requesting to change it from what it was when you bought your home. He said the City of North Richland arbitrarily changed the square footage requirement to 1800 square feet in January of this year. Vice Chairman Barfield said the applicant is requesting to go back to what it was before it was changed. Mr. Lueck asked when they bought their house. Ms. Welborn said about a year ago. Vice Chairman Barfield said then it was a requirement of 1600 square feet when she bought her home. Ms. Welborn said that is right, but since it has been upped to 1800, she feels it should stay 1800. Ms. McWilliams came forward. She said her husband had called and spoke to someone, maybe Wan~a, and said they were going to take the lots from 9,000 square feet to 7500 square feet. Ms. Calvert stated that in R-3 zoning, the allowable lot size is 7500 square feet, but he does not plan to replat and change the lot size. I Page 7 ~ P & Z Minutes August 8, 1991 I I I I I I I ~ I I I I I I I Ie I Ms. McWilliams said, if this is approved, they could have the smaller lots. Mr. Bowen said they could if they desired. He said after the zoning is approved, they could replat and change the lot size if they so desired. Ms. McWilliams said it doesn't matter if the zoning was 1600 square feet prior to January, it is 1800 square feet now and we would like to keep it 1800 square feet. Vice Chairman Barfield called for anyone else wishing to speak in opposition to this request to please come forward. There being no one, the Vice Chairman closed the Public Hearing. Vice Chairman Barfield asked Mr. Stephens to come forward. He asked Mr. Stephens if he would be agreeable to R-2-1600 square foot minimum; he would have all the requirements for R-2 but would be allowed to build 1600 square foot houses. Mr. Stephens asked if he would be able to build front entry garages. Vice Chairman Barfield said yes, the requirement in R-2 now for rear entry garages does not apply because it was platted prior to this requirement. Mr. Stephens said the R-2-1600 is what he would like to have; there would be no platting. Mr. Lueck asked if Mr. Stephens started building today, when does he plan to have it built out. Mr. Stephens said he would like to have it built out the first quarter of next year. He said he was not saying I Page 8 ~ P & Z Minutes August 8, 1991 I I I I I I I ~ I I I I I I I Ie I he plans to build all 1600 square feet houses, some will be larger. Mr. 'Stephens said as far as the price range, he looked up the value of every house in that area and his homes will be well in line with the others in the area. Mr. Lueck asked if he meant an average of the houses on Lowery and Cook Circle. Mr. Stephens said he has two new ones built that are 1800 square feet that are in the price range of $100,000 to $105,000. He said a 1600 square foot house sells for $55 a square foot and their house has been selling for $30 a square foot, the more new homes, the more it is going to bring the value up. Vice Chairman Barfield asked if he had been out and checked the sizes of the houses on Lowery. Mr. Stephens said he has the exact square footage of the houses from Tarrant Appraisal. He said the one on the corner is 1656, 7012 Lowery is 1315, 7016 is 1125, then 1125, 1315, 1078, 1137, 1892 with garage enclosure and room addition, 1100 with garage enclosure, 1241, 1100. He said these are the houses that abut the property, not on the west side of Lowery. Mr. Stephens said these houses are from 19 to 26 years old. Vice Chairman Barfield said he knows when they were built, he knew the builder and that is about right. Mr. Stephens said some are operating a business out of them. Ms. Marin asked with R-2-1600, it would end all speculation that they might replat. I Page 9 ~ P & Z Minutes August 8, 1991 I I I I I I I ~ I I I I I I I Ie I Vice Chairman Barfield said that is correct. He said when the Commission was discussing the change in the requirement for R-2 to 1800 square feet, this question did arise, what are we going to do when we have a single street in a subdivision that is already developed, and they said they would address them issue by issue, and this is one of those situations. He said each Commission member would have to weigh it out in their own mind as to what would be best. Vice Chairman Barfield said we are in a transition area, we are trying to upgrade the north end of the city to larger homes. Mr. Lueck asked if the west side of Timberlane would be where he would build the 1600 square foot homes. Mr. Stephens said it would be hard to tell at this time. Vice Chairman Barfield asked about putting 1600 on the west side and 1800 on the east side. Mr. Stephens said he felt they should be proud that he was cleaning up the area and it wouldn't be used as a dump ground. He said there are people in the area running businesses out of their house, washer and dryer repair business, and these same homeowners here haven't said anything about that. Ms. McWilliams came forward. She said she would like to know who is working out of their home. She said their homes are very well kept. She said she did not think he should have said that. Mr. Lueck said thàt is on a different street from where she lives. Vice Chairman Barfield said the Commission is not looking at that, they are looking at what size the i Page 10 ~ P & Z Minutes August 8, 1991 I I I I I I I ~ I PZ 91-18 APPROVED I I I 2. PZ 91-19 I I I Ie I homes are. He said he knows the houses in the area to the west are about 1,000 square feet; they were built by Bill Giles about 20 years ago and have one car garages; they are much smaller than her's. Vice Chairman Barfield said this property lies between small homes on the west and larger homes on the east. He said the question is, can we grant him a transition zoning. Ms. McWilliams asked what advantage the city has in rezoning just one street. Vice Chairman Barfield said they do that quite frequently. He said R-3 zoning is used as a transition zoning; it is used as a buffer. Mr. Lueck said when they changed the ordinance from 1600 to 1800, we knew we would have to take these on a case by case basis. Ms. Marin made the motion to approve PZ 91-18 and recommend the zoning be R-2-1600 square foot minimum. This motion was seconded by Mr. Moody and the motion carried 4-2 with Marin, Collins, Lueck, and Moody voting for and Barfield and Bowen voting against. The motion passed.

This Property is Located at 4174 Willman Avenue. 9/9/91 Council Meeting Date: PZ 91-19 Agenda Number: Ordinance 111761 Mr. Wayne Herndon has submitted a request to rezone a single lot located on Willman Avenue from LR Local Retail to C-1 Commercial. Mr. Herndon is interested in using the property for an office and for storage of parts to support his auto air conditioning repair business located on Grapevine Highway. The existing LR zoning district does not permit any auto parts related uses. Many of the properties along Willman Avenue were originally single family residential structures. However, over the past several years the area has been in transition as new commercial business related uses have taken over many of the structures. The P~anning and Zoning Commission reviewed this request at their August 8th meeting and recommended that the property be rezoned to C-1 Commercial. There were no citizen objections to the proposed zoning district change. RECOMMENDATION: 4IÞ1t is recommended that the City Council hold the required Public Hearing and consider the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission. Source of Funds: Bonds (GO/Rev.)

I I Page 11 Ie p & Z Minutes August 8, 1991 I I I I I I I Ie I I I I I I I Ie I Vice Chairman Barfield opened the Public Hearing and called for those wishing to speak in favor of this request to please come forward. Wayne Herndon came forward. He said he owns and operates Cool Air Airconditioning on Grapevine Highway. He said this property is about 120 yards from the current facility. Mr. Herndon said he has owned the operation for 7 years, but it has been in operation for 12 years. He said they are growing and have a good retail location; they have 12 bays; have a very limited storage area; a very small administrative office space. Mr. Herndon said the reason to rezone this C-l is to allow us 3 things, a showroom, a 2-car garage and room for inventory. He said there would be more parking, he has 13 employees. He said there would be no retail sales. Vice Chairman Barfield asked if this was going to be used for parking and storage. Mr. Herndon said it would be used primarily for office and storage and there is a parking lot in the front. He said right now, he has about a 12 by 12 foot office at his current facility which makes it very cramped for them. He said this would give them 2~ times the office space. Vice Chairman Barfield asked what kind of materials would he be storing there. Mr. Herndon said they are in the auto airconditioning b~siness and have support parts, dryer, expansion valves, automotive related parts. Vice Chairman Barfield asked how they would be delivered to the site, by semi trucks, with fork lifts. I Page 12 Ie P & Z Minutes August 8, 1991 I I I I I I I Ie I I I I I I I Ie I Mr. Herndon said no, most of our stuff is picked up from suppliers in half ton pickups. He said they do not have a fork lift. Mr. Herndon said they might receive 2 deliveries a month by a bob tail truck. He said most of their supplies are picked up from suppliers within a 20 mile radius. Vice Chairman Barfield called for anyone wishing to speak in opposition to please come forward. There being no one wishing to speak, the Vice Chairman closed the Public Hearing. Mr. LeBaron said the property is presently zoned Local Retail and he is requesting it be zoned C-1 Commercial. He said, if zoned C-1, they could have an office there and some storage, but the concern he has is if it comes to a warehousing use, that zoning would not be appropriate. He said warehousing must have an industrial zoning. Vice Chairman Barfield asked Mr. Herndon to address the storage area. Mr. Herndon stated this is a pier and beam structure; one bedroom is still in tact and could use it for office files; the area in the front would be for display with a desk and work area. He said the garage is 24 by 20 with a 20 by 30 addition on the back with all concrete flooring, and there is an enclosure of a breezeway which is on a slab. Mr. LeBaron asked if he would be doing any of the work there. Mr. Herndon said no. He said they would have some packing and would pull parts there, the packing or unpacking. · I Page 13 Ie P & Z Minutes August 8, 1991 I I PZ 91-19 APPROVED I 3.

Don Nikirk, one of the heirs, came forward. He said his father built a new home next to the old home. He said it is a 1200 square foot brick home with a two car garage, air conditioned and very nice, and the chance if it being torn down and apartments built is not very likely. Vice Chairman Barfield asked if they were aware that if zoned R-3 and the house were destroyed by fire or wind storm, they would have to build a 1400 square foot minimum house there to meet the R-3 requirement. Mr. Collins asked if Mr. Nikirk would describe the other house. Mr. Nikirk said the old house where they originally lived is about 1,000 square feet, 3 bedroom frame house with what used to be a 2-story garage apartment. He said several years ago, it was reduced to one level and a standard roof put on it. He said the frame house was built in 1954, pier and beam construction with siding.

STAFF REPORT Mr. Nikirk said the real estate people handled it, but FHA said they could not loan with the present zoning. Mr. Bowen said he felt Mr. Nikirk is correct in saying this area is years away from a redevelopment. He said someone would have to come in and purchase the whole area for redevelopment and he does not think that is going to happen right away. Mr. Bowen said he has no problem with this rezoning. Vice Chairman Barfield said he feels the same way. He said someday it will probably go commercial or industrial, but that will probably be several years away. Mr. Nikirk said his two neighbors would also like to have their property rezoned. Vice Chairman Barfield said they would have to apply just as he did. Mr. Lueck made the motion to approve PZ 91-20.

At the budget workshop, the Council approved an HMO option but directed the Staff to review other HMO plans. In the interim, Transport Life submitted a new plan for our consideration. We expanded our study of HMO options to include the plans from Aetna, CIGNA, and Travelers. We compared the four HMO plans with Transport's new plan. We reported to the Council in IR 91-114 that we believed Transport's plan to be better than the HMO options. We suggested that the plans be reviewed by Staff and Council Insurance Committee members. As directed by the Council, we met with Councilman Wood on September 3. We unanimously agreed that Transport's plan is the best plan and that it should be recommended to the Council for approval. A copy of Transport's plan is attached. Recommendation: It is recommended by the Staff and Councilman Wood that the City Council approve Transport's Health Plan effective October 1, 1991.
