Mayor Echols called for anyone wishing to speak in opposition
to the request to please come forward.
Mr. Larry Blalock, 8401 Glen Ann, appeared before the Council.
Mr. Blalock stated that he felt this type of business would create
more traffic and there was already a lot of traffic in the area.
Mr. Blalock stated there was single family residents on both
sides of the property and felt they did not need the air conditioner
shop. Mr. Blalock stated, that if the business was not successful
some other type of business could go in there.
Mr. Kenneth Le Van, 8440 Glen Ann, appeared before the Council.
Mr. Le Van stated he felt the business would create more traffic
and start commercial creeping into the area. Mr. Le Van stated
that the corner of Main and Davis was not sufficient to handle
the traffic and the residential area could not handle any more
traffic.
Rex McEntire, Attorney, asked if the two previous speakers were
within 200 feet of the zoning request.
Mayor Echols stated they were not.
',--
Mr. Gerald Stewart, 8840 Main Street, appeared before the Council.
Mr. Stewart stated that the property in question was located on
a very thin Y street and in his estimation was a very poor place
for an air conditioning shop. Mr. Stewart stated that in the
summer time the shop would be very crowded. Mr. Stewart stated
there was a school nearby and he felt the traffic would be
heavy if the request was approved. Mr. Stewart stated there was
ten acres behind the property in question and he felt that if
this request was approved the ten acres would also go commercial.
Mayor Echols asked Mr. Stewart if he was within 200 feet of the
rezoning request.
Mr. Stewart replied no.
Mr. Marion Massey reappeared before the Council.
Mr. Massey stated he could not say or dispute that there would be
a lot of cars at the location, but traffic seemed to be the main
concern and this type of business was not a high traffic item.
Mayor Echols asked if the applicant would consider not having
access on Main and just on Amundson.
',--
Mr. Massey stated if access was only from Amundson there would
not be a problem.

PZ 84-60B
Councilwoman Moody moved, seconded by Councilwoman Hinkle,
to deny Ordinance No. 1169.
Mayor Pro Tem Davis asked the Mayor to expand on the traffic
problem, he felt that was the peoples biggest concern. Mayor
Pro Tem Davis stated that the property was currently zoned
R-2 and someone could come in for apartment zoning and the
Council tried not to put that type of zoning next to residential
property. Mayor Pro Tem Davis stated there was some duplexes
at the northeast corner of the R-2. Mayor Pro Tem Davis asked
Mayor Echols if he felt it would be beneficial to only have
one entrance from Amundson where there was no homes.
Mayor Echols stated he felt that the big objection was that
there were school children going by the location on Main and
if the opening was on Amundson it would be across from
industrial property which did not seem to be causing a problem.
',-
Councilwoman Moody stated she had always prided herself, since
being elected, on being a friend to the small business man and
did not want anyone to think that she would do anything to
try and drive them out of the City. Councilwoman Moody
stated she had very strong personal feelings about this
particular zoning case and the only reason she did not step
down was because she did not meet any of the requirements to
step down and not vote on it. Councilwoman Moody stated her
son went to Smithfield Junior High School and she was by the
property twice a day and was very familiar with the traffic
in the area. Councilwoman Moody stated that if the request
was not approved she hoped they would look for another
location in the City.
--
Mayor Pro Tem Davis made a substitute motion, "that there be
no entrance from Main Street".
Motion died for the lack of a second.
Councilman Ramsey called for the question.
Motion to deny carried 7-0.

Ordinance
Council Meeting Date: l-28-85
Agenda Number: so HI)
I-
This request is for permission to have a moving or projecting sign on their
delivery vehicles. The signs that are requested are signs that sit in the
back of a pickup and project above the sides of the bed of the pickup.
i
I
'--
This is the second time in the last two years that the sign issue has arisen
involving Domino's Pizza. The first time that we had a problem, they had
signs on the roof of the vehicles. At that time we asked them to remove the
signs and informed them that Section 5.5 of the Sign Ordinance states that
no sign or advertising should be erected or attached to any vehicle except
for signs painted directly on or mounted flush to the surface of the vehicle.
L
i

L-
The staff recommends that you deny this request as we have denied other people
recently permission to put other than permanent type signs on vehicles.

A request has been made by Danny and Janis Campbell for a variance to the Sigp Ordinance
on Lot 2, Block 2. Powell Addition. The lot is located on the east side of Smithfield
Road immediately south of Smithfield Elementary School and is currently zoned Local
Retail. The applicants are constru~ting a small strip center on the lot. Th~y have
requested permission to erect a ground sign for the center. The ordinance requires that
a ground sign can only be erected on properties having 100 foot or greater street
frontage. Lot 2, Block 2. Powell Addition is platted with only 75 feet of street
frontage. The Staff had refused the application for erection of a ground sign on this
lot for nonconformance with the Sign Ordinance.

Subject: Request For Sign Variance
"-
We are requesting a variance to the North Richland Hills Sign
Ordinance allowing us to erect a sign for the new building located
at 6716 Smithfield Road Lot 2~ Block 2 Powell Subdivison. This
building is on the South side of Smithfield Elementry School. The
building located at 6714 Smithfield Road which houses the
Smithfield Post Office. Lot 1 Block 2 Powell Subdivison is also
owned by us. The total road frontage for Lot 1 & Lot 2 is 150 ".
The old building faces the street and signs can be put on the front
of the building. However the new building faces the South and only
the West office~ the new beauty shop~ can be seen from the road.
The two offices on the East end of the new building are obscurred
by the Post Office bUilding. We submitted plans to the city in May
of 1984 which indicated where the sign would be erected. The plans
were approved at that time. We are only requesting one pole sign
for the new office and would be willing to waive the right to have
a sign on Lot 1. We had a sign on the lot prior to starting
construction in September. 1984. This sign was erected about 8
months ago.
Thank YOU

Subject: R~organizatinn of North Texas Library Syst~m
The City of North Richland Hills is a member of the North Texas Library System. The
attached resolution allows the North Texas Library System to file corporate papers and
become a nonprofit organization. The resolution must be passed before the organization
can become nonprofit and seek grants or foundation assistance. It is estimated that the
organization will become fully organized and capable of providing funds for ~ervices in
1986. When the nonprofit corporation is fully operational, the City of North Richland
Hills and other cities in the present system will be given the opportunity to become
members. If at that time the majority of the cities decline, the nonprofit oorporation
will disband and the current system will continue to be administered by the City of Fort
Worth.

Approval of the resolution.

L
The expanded programming and the equipment added recently for Citicable
36 has necessitated an increased use of Meeting Room 100 for the storage
of props and equipment. In order to protect this expensive outlay, it
appears prudent to end ~he use of this room by public organizations.
We, therefore, request the dissolution of Resolution 79-6, Section 1,
which sets forth rules for the use of the Library Meeting Room.
-.......
~
L.,
Since Meeting Room 100 has no custodial service, it has fallen on the
library staff to move sets and chairs back and forth often several
times a week. This can sometimes be at inconvenient times.
L
The rooms at the Community Center seem to be more appropriate for the
public until a time when perhaps other facilities are made available
for a Citicable 36 studio.
......~
There is no change recommended for the use of the Meeting Room 100 by
City departments. It would be expected to remain the same.
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the attached resolution No. 85-4 be adopted
restricting the use of Room 100 to City government purposes.

Imen public groups are using Room 100, it is not possible to

Agenda Number:
GN 85-9
!
'--
In order to meet the needs of an expanding and dynamic City within existing office
space, various modifications to the City Hall have been made recently, and more are
needed. Better space utilization and improved conditions for citizens and employees was
realized by the partitioning accomplished January 19th and 20th. To improve the
efficiency and working conditions. in the administrative areas of the City Hall, approval
of the following additional modifications is requested:
\
,
L
1) Conference Room Expansion
This expansion will provide an additional four feet of width in the only conference
room presently available for the City Council and Staff. At present, this room
will only accommodate the Mayor and Council and a limited number of staff members
at Pre-Council Meetings. This change will allow some seating for members of the
press, citizens, and any other interested parties at these meetings.
2) Additional Work/Storage Areas
The Northeast and Southeast corners of the City Council Chambers are presently
useless, and tend to collect items not in constant use. Partitioning off these
areas will provide space for the word processing printer, which will permit moving
it from its present location near the City Manager's office door. Also, badly
needed storage space will be made available. The architect from Al Komatsu's
office who assisted in these plans believes that a more attractive Council Chamber
will be another result.
3)
Energy Conservation
To provide for better energy efficiency we propose to close in (with store front
material similar to that in the entrance ways) the north outside doors immediately
to the north of the switchboard desk and a similar entrance way in the rear of the
building between the Tax and Personnel offices. This modification will in effect
provide a dead air insulation space between the outside and the interior of the
building at these two entrances.
I
"-
4) City Manager's Office
Also included in this request is a modification to the City Manager's office to
provide for an outside window. This will be in addition to office refurbishing,
for which funds have been previously allocated.
Total estimated cost for these modifications is $11,000.
'-...
Recommendation:
Authorize transfer from the Reserve for Contingency Account to Building Maintenance
Account in the amount of $11,000 to accomplish the improvements described above.

1- The attached memo dated January 18, 1985, outlines the need for an additional full-time
meter reader for the Utility Service Department. As stated in that memo, the Utility
Service Department presently has four full-time positions that are currently responsible
for approximately 17,000 accounts, with projected growth to be estimated at 18,400
accounts thru September 30, 1985. The increased workload has caused undue delays in
utility billing, increased overtime, and declines in proficiency.
Recommendation:
It is the Staff's recommendation that a fifth full-time position be authorized and the
budget amended accordingly. Estimated cost for the position would be approximately
$12,000 including salary related benefits.

Memo to: Rodger N. Line

From: Lee Maness
Finance Director
Subject: Utility Meter Readers
Pursuant to our conversation of Friday, January 11, 1985, concerning the need
for additional personnel for reading utility meters with the cities of Watauga
and North Richland Hills. I offer the following as justification for one (1)
additional person within that department.
'--
A survey was conducted of areas cities to determine the number of utility
accounts, square miles, and number of meter readers. The City of North
Richland Hills is unique in comparison to the other mid-cities in that we are
also responsible for utility services in Watauga. When both cities population
and utility accounts are added together the actual service area is 51,600 in
population with approximately 17,000 utility meters. Because of that size we
should compare cities in the 50,000 plus population bracket. Utilizing the
summary schedule (see attached) the average meter reader is responsible for
approximately 3,000 accounts for the cities of Denton, Bay town, Victoria,
Carrollton, and Killeen. Another interesting collation, especially for the
cities of Farmers Branch, Hurst, Haltom City, and Bedford was made based on
total square miles. Those cities are able to service approximately 10,000
accounts with no more than three meter readers. In talking with representa-
tives from those cities, it was the consensus that they were able to service
those accounts because the total square miles of each city was less, that the
cities were almost totally developed, and a larger concentration of
residential subdivisions in certain areas with no skips or undeveloped areas
between those subdivisions.
The Utility Service Department presently has four meter reader positions
authorized. The last increase in personnel was fiscal year 1982/83.
Utilizing the information listed below the average meter count per meter
reader would be approximately 3,430 accounts. Using today's customer count
increases that averages to approximately 4,250 accounts per meter reader. The
acceptable range for a proficient reader is approximately 250 accounts per day
which does not allow for bad weather days, sick leave, holidays or vacation
days.

Subject:
Extensions of our Auto and Police Liability Policies
Agenda Number: PU 85-5
¡
L- Background:
Our Auto and Police Liability insurance policies expire March 23, 1985. From a budgeting
standpoint, it would be beneficial for our insurance policy yeay to coincide with our
fiscal year. Toward that end, the Home Insurance Company and Home Indemnity Company have
agreed to extend these two policies through September 30, 1985 using the current rates.
By extending these policies we would then be able to submit these coverages for bid for
~ an October 1 effective date. The State publishes modifiers each year which are applied
to the current rates for Auto Liability insurance. Our modifier ~ill be based on our
claims experience the past year. Our experience has been excellent and we expect our
modifier to be a credit which will lower our premium. We will have to wait for the State
to publish our modifier before we will know the net cost of extending this policy for the
remainder of this fiscal year. We budgeted $50,000 this year to cover the cost of a full
years premium for these two coverages. We anticipate the extensions to cost about $22,000.
Recommendation:
We recommend that the City Council approve extending our current Auto and Police Liability
Policies through September 30, 1985 per the attached binders.

As outlined in the attached memorandum from Lee Maness, Finance Director, the Utility
Fund has accrued approximately $72,000 in past due water and sewer bills since
delinquencies were last written off in 1978. Such accounts should be written off on an
annual basis and this procedure will be followed in the future. Prior to writing these
bills off, it is proposed that a final effort be made to realize whatever collections
are possible by retaining Chilton Accounts Receivable Management for this purpose. In
addition to the entities listed in the attachment, Chilton also provides collection
services for the North Richland Hill's Ambulance Service, as previously authorized by
the City Council.
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Manager be authorized to enter into a contract with
Chilton Accounts Receivable Management to provide collection services as described.

Memo to: Rodger N. Line
City Manager
From: Lee Maness
Finance Director
Subject: Collection of Delinquent Utility Accounts
As you are aware, on September 30, 1984 delinquent utility account balances
that were at least 120 days old were written off as bad debt. That amount was
approximately $72,000.00. Prior to that, the last time write-offs were made
was September 1978.
'-'
The City of North Richland Hills in the past had a policy of attempting
collection of delinquent accounts internally. We did that with follow-up
correspondence and phone call if applicable. That has not been as successful
as expected.
A survey of area cities, hospitals, and businesses was made to determine
policies and/or collection agencies utilized for collection. A consensus of
those called recommended Chilton Accounts Receivable Management. Area
entities contacted are listed as follows:
1. TESCO
2. North Hills Medical Center
3. All Saints Hospital
4. City of Hurst
5. City of Richland Hills
A meeting with an account representative for Chilton's was held on Tuesday,
January 22, 1985 to review their policies and procedures. A brief summary is
listed as follows:
1. Maintain a professional staff of ten collectors.
2. Delinquent accounts are entered into a national retail consumer
credit bureau.
'--
3. Average success rate of collection is 25% to 30% of all delinquent
accounts.
/8171281-0041/7301 N.E. LOOP 820/P.0. BOX 18609/NORTH RICHlAND HillS, TX 76118
Page Two
4. Retain 40% commission as collection fee.
"'--
5.
Delinquent accounts are notified initially by a courtesy notice
generated by the computer.
a. Second notice sent in letter form.
b. Additional follow-up by phone if necessary, but very
professional with no harassment.
6. The delinquency must be at least $20.00 before acceptance by
Chilton's.
7. Will not pursue accounts that are more than two years old.
A proposed contract with Chilton's is attached.
It is my recommendation that Chilton's Accounts Receivable Management be
retained to collect delinquent accounts and a formal policy implemented to
review all delinquencies annually to minimize total write-off.

Agenda Number: PW 81)-4
Holiday Lane was recently constructed by the developer of Fox Hollow Addition III south
of Chapman. Due to an oversightøn our part, the street was only built 37 feet wide.
When the plans were approved for this subdivision, we should have required the developer
build the street 41 feet wide. The City would then have paid for the extra four feet of
width. However, this would not have met'the requirement of the new proposed
thoroughfare plan, which calls for this street to be 49 feet wide.
Since houses are not yet built in this subdivision, we are proposing to go ahead and
widen this street at this time. We feel that the prices on the Harwood Road and
Glenview projects are good prices and we could accomplish the widening of Holiday Lane
by a change order to these two projects.
The cost of the widening of Holiday Lane, based on unit prices of the Harwood and
Glenview projects, is $83,234.64. Since detailed plans are not available, there may be
some extra costs, as outlined on page two of Richard Albin's attached letter.
Recommendation:
The staff recommends that the City Council approve a change order on the Harwood Road
and Glenview Drive project to accomplish the widening of Holiday Lane; and that $90,000
be appropriated from UnspecifiedCIP funds to finance this project.

HOLiDAY LANE WIDENING
As you requested we have prepared a revised estimate of street widening costs on
Holiday Lane from an existing 37-foot BIB width to a proposed 49-foot BIB width
based on unit prices in the Harwood Road project presently under contract with
Austin Road Company. The total length to be widened is about 1,504 feet. The
following tabulation presents an estimate of average per linear foot costs for
widening based on Design "A" (8-inch thick) and Design "B" (6-inch thick). We
have deleted the sawcut item which was included in the previous estimate.

As presented in the tabulation above, the estimated cost to widen the street from
36-foot to 48-foot with an 8-inch thick section which includes a 2-inch overlay
over the existing surface is about $84,000. This section is comparable to Rufe
Snow and the proposed Chapman Drive sections in thickness and subgrade
stabilization. Design "B" widening with a 6-inch section would cost about
$57,000. This section is comparable to the Booth Calloway section between
Glenview and I.H. 820.
Please note that this estimate is based on an average per linear foot cost for
widening of Holiday Lane and is not based on a detailed field surveyor
engineering design. Additional widening costs may be included such as utility
adjustments, intersecting street curb grade revisions, concrete valley
adjustments, etc. Engineering, inspection, layout, testing and other contingency
costs are also not included.
'--
To avoid exceeding the maximum permissible change order contract increase of
25-percent, you may wish to include part of the widening costs in the Glenview
contract which is also with Austin Road Company. The unit prices for the Harwood
Road project and the Glenview Drive project are the same for all items included in
the widening costs.
Please call if you have any questions.
