Subject: Agenda Item No. A.1
Animal Shelter Update and Fundraising Overview ( 15 Minutes)
Presenter: Jo Ann Stout, Director of Neighborhood Services
Summarv:
Staff has worked diligently with Quorum Architects in finalizing the construction
drawings for the new animal shelter. Quorum will update you on where we are in the
process and take you through the design of the new shelter. In addition, staff will review
with you plans for the upcoming fundraising campaign.
General Description:
In October 2012, the City Council authorized a contract with Quorum Architects for the
design and implementation of a new animal shelter. Staff has been working with
Quorum to design a modern 10,000 square foot facility that will meet current and future
needs of the community. The shelter's design will create a healthier and friendlier
environment and will improve operational efficiency. A representative from Quorum
Architects will provide an update on the project and review the facility design with the
City Council.
As the design phase of the project is wrapping up, staff is also preparing to begin a
campaign to raise funds to help pay for construction of the shelter. We are in need of
raising $1.2 million. The fundraising will begin with a "quiet phase" where we solicit
individuals, groups and corporations for monetary donations. Information from
individuals involved in fund raising efforts indicates that large donors prefer to be
, 'asked" first before advertising to the community. Fallowing the quiet phase, we will
advertise several opportunities for the public to participate in the shelter fundraising
campaign. Staff will review the planned fundraising efforts with the City Council.

Smoking Ordinance Revisions (20 Minutes)
Presenter: John Pitstick, Director of Planning & Development
Summarv:
Staff will review with the City Council proposed changes to the smoking ordinance to
bring North Richland Hills in line with other area cities as a response to public
sentiment.
General Descriration:
A stakeholder meeting has been held with restaurant, bar and smoking establishments.
A consensus of opinion from business establishments is to have a consistent and level
playing field regarding local and area smoking regulations. Business owners were
generally supportive of removing smoking from indoor restaurants, but requested
exemptions for allowing smoking in specific adult centered establishments or outdoor
smoking in designated areas. Staff will review proposed changes to the smoking
ordinance with the City Council.

There were no questions from Council on the regular agenda items.
A.1 Code Red Weather warnings uparade presentation (1 0 Minutes)
Stan Tinney, Fire Chief, updated Council on the Code Red Weather Warning upgrade.
Emergency mass notification is performed with the Code Red notification system. The
system can make calls to hard -wire telephones within the designated area and send
email, text or cellular voice messages to subscribers. NRH recently upgraded the
system to include automatic weather warnings to subscribers. NRH will be sending out
information reminding citizens to go to the www.nrhtx.com /CodeRed web page and sign
up for this service. The website allows users to select the types of notices they would
like to subscribe to. Code Red will assist with notifying current subscribers of the new
service and NRH will conduct a campaign advising previous and new subscribers of the
new features in the coming weeks.
A.2 Art in Public Spaces Signal Art Program Update
Vickie Loftice, Managing Director, updated Council on the Public Spaces Signal Art
Program. The Signal Art Program was implemented in 2007 to enhance the City's Art in
Public Spaces Program. Many of the boxes have been in place for several years and
are in need of replacement. Staff is recommending a regular replacement schedule of
every 18 -24 months to keep the program fresh and interesting. The program works with
local artists to design original artwork for traffic signal boxes located throughout the City.
Selected artwork will be site appropriate, improve the physical landscape, contribute to
neighborhood and City identity and provide a "walls free" art gallery that contributes to
the overall sense of place in North Richland Hills. For this first round of replacement
boxes staff is recommending a theme of "Hollywood Film Cowboys" for several of the
boxes. The theme will provide continuity of artwork and entice our residents and visitors
to discover the next cowboy as they make their way through our city. The images will
include variations on the Hollywood portrayal of the hero cowboy from John Wayne, to
Clint Eastwood, Paul Newman and Yul Brynner, each representing a protector of
community and family. The "Hollywood Film Cowboy" artist is Cultural Arts Coordinator,
Sarah Green. Other signal art boxes will remain site specific such as the Richland
Rebels and Birdville Hawks boxes. After a brief discussion and questions by the
Council, the consensus was to move forward with the changes and to include the box
on Davis and Harwood next to Nikki's Italian Restaurant.

Subject: Agenda Item No. B.2
Consider an Ordinance Amending Section 10 -153 of the Code of
Ordinances, the Definition Section of the Ordinance regulating
Sexually Oriented Businesses - Ordinance No. 3261
Presenter: George Staples, City Attorney
Summarv:
Council is being asked to consider amending one of the definitions in the City's sexually
oriented business ordinance.
General Descrir)tion:
Section 10 -153 is the definitions section of our ordinance regulating sexually oriented
businesses. Businesses which have employees in a state of nudity are subject to
licensing and regulation. These terms are currently defined as follows:
!Nudity or state of nudity means less than completely and opaquely covered:
(1) Human genitals, pubic region, or pubic hair; (2) All portions of a female breast
below a point immediately above the top of the areola continuing downward to the
lowest portion of the breast; (3) Human buttock; or (4) Any combination of the
above.
Recently there have been news stories involving waitresses in unlicensed
establishments in other cities who have been wearing paint over specified areas and
claiming that this is sufficient. In an effort to stay ahead of the issue, we have drafted
an amendment to Section 10 -153 of the Code of Ordinances. We will follow up with an
amendment to the zoning ordinance conforming relevant provisions.

SUP 2013 -04 Public Hearing and Consideration of a Request from
Chesapeake Energy for a revised Special Use Permit to add
additional landscaping at the TCCD South Gas Well Pad Site located
at 828 W. Harwood Rd. - Ordinance No. 3259
Presenter: John Pitstick, Planning & Development Director
APPLICANT: Chesapeake Energy with permission from the property owner, Tarrant
County College District.
CASE SUMMARY: Chesapeake Energy has made application for a revised Special
Use Permit to request additional landscaping along Boulevard 26 in an effort to mitigate
and partially hide the height of holding tanks visible from Boulevard 26 above an 8 foot
masonry screening wall. Chesapeake Energy is requesting to install a series of grassed
berms along Boulevard 26 in front of the gas well pad site with meandering trees.
The TCCD gas well pad site includes a 3.2 -acre pad site on Tarrant County College
Northeast Campus property. The original SUP for the gas well site approved in 2009
included line of site drawings indicating that all proposed holding tanks would not be
visible from surrounding streets. However, the masonry wall was constructed first and
then the interior pad site was graded in an elevated manner leaving the 8 foot tanks
exposed over the walls along Boulevard 26.
The Gas Well Drilling & Production ordinance approved in 2005 states that a masonry
wall with landscaping shall be required to enclose and visually screen the well and all
associated equipment. Staff has worked with Chesapeake Energy for over a year to
reach an appropriate solution to the exposed tanks. Options have included excavating
to lower the existing tanks; replacing the tanks with lower profile containers; and
replacing the masonry wall with higher wall sections. These solutions have been
problematic from either party because of overall costs, interruption in gas services or
creating "Band -Aid" approaches for screening that would not meet the intended
aesthetical and screening standards of the ordinance.
The recommended Special Use Permit submittal includes a series of meandering
grassed berms with trees along Boulevard 26 that would not totally screen the exposed
tanks but would provide natural clusters of trees to take the public's eyes away from the
exposed tanks. Chesapeake Energy is requesting to construct eight berms with 28 new
trees including Cedar Elms, Red Oaks and Chinese Pistache. Chesapeake Energy has
received permission from the Tarrant County College District and from TXDCT to install
the new landscaping along Boulevard 26.
BACKGROUND: The SUP process provides for a land use to occur within a zoning
district that would not otherwise allow such a use by right. Such uses typically warrant
the consideration of special conditions to reduce adverse effects on adjacent or
surrounding properties. Essentially, the City can require additional stipulations beyond
the regulations in Chapter 104: "Gas Well Drilling and Production" of the City Code to
enhance visibility and aesthetics. In this effort, Chesapeake is proposing to mitigate a
created visible violation through a Special Use Permit by offering additional landscape
improvements.
Four gas wells have been completed at the TCCD site thus far. Chesapeake Energy
anticipates three more wells at this site in the future. The actual process of permitting
the individual gas wells at this site is a separate process that will require separate
permits approved by staff for each of the proposed gas wells. This permitting process
requires the gas operator to demonstrate compliance with the technical details, safety
issues and the other regulations indicated in Chapter 104.
EXISTING ZONING: Because of the Tarrant County Community College's Northeast
Campus, the property is currently zoned "U" School, Church and Institutional District.
The Special Use Permit "overlay" also applies to just the Chesapeake pad site area.
REVIEW OF GAS WELL REGULATIONS: An SUP for a gas well is only required
when the proposed gas well site is located in a zoning district other than Agricultural,
Residential or Hometown Edge zoning districts. Chesapeake will need to make a
separate variance application and receive approval from the Gas Board of Appeals prior
to the drilling of any new wells that are within 600 feet from the apartment complex
across Boulevard 26. Additionally, it should be noted that the Gas Board's guidelines
require notification of all property owners within 600 feet of the actual pad site, while the
SUP only involves notification of property owners within 200 feet of the pad site.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: This is a very visible site from thousands of people
traveling daily along both Harwood Road and Boulevard 26. This site is close to NRH2O
and Home Town and will also be very visible from students, faculty and visitors to
Tarrant County College. Staff has worked closely with Chesapeake Energy
representatives for more than a year to reach a recommended solution for the exposed
holding tanks. The Gas Well Ordinance does not allow well sites to have exposed
equipment visible from public areas. However, in this specific case staff recommends
approval of Ordinance No. 3259, SUP 2013 -04 with the addition of a series of grassed
berms and 28 new trees along Boulevard 26 to provide a natural screen from the
traveling public and maintain a tan color on the holding tanks to blend with the existing
masonry wall to camouflage the exposed tanks.
PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: The Planning & Zoning
Commission met on Thursday, July 18 and voted 4 -0 to recommend approval of SUP
2013 -04 with the addition of grassed berms, additional trees along Boulevard 2E and to
maintain a tan color on the holding tanks.

establishes a new subdivision name, "North Tarrant 'Marketplace." This Final Plat is
consistent with the submitted engineering plans and the Preliminary Plat approved by
the Planning & Zoning Commission on June 20, 2013. In order to accommodate the
development, current two current easements are proposed to be abandoned. These
abandonments are contingent on the platting of new easements, and in the case of the
exclusive sanitary sewer easement, the construction and acceptance of a new sanitary
sewer main. Because the easements were dedicated by separate instrument, they
must be abandoned by separate instrument and not simply by plat. The Developer has
requested that these abandonments accompany the plat to address the issue of any
encumbrances which may impact the project, and to clearly demonstrate the City's
willingness to vacate the easements.
THOROUGHFARE PLAN: The property has frontage on North Tarrant Parkway and
Precinct Line Road.
North Tarrant Parkway is identified on the Thoroughfare Plan as a "P6D" six -lane
divided principal arterial with 200 feet of right -of -way. Adequate right -of -way exists
along this property's frontage, however traffic generated by this development warrants a
mid - block traffic signal to be shared with the Wal -Mart entrance at the existing median
cut. An additional median opening was requested further east and will also be shared
with an existing driveway for Wal -Mart directly across from the existing driveway serving
the Murphy USA gas station on the Wal -Mart property. Pavestone crosswalks
consistent with the theme along North Tarrant Parkway will be provided at all four
driveway entrances to the development along this corridor.
P. TA fIFMi F P��WAT
I T
5 c ,
One new traffic signal and one new median opening along North Tarrant Parkway will be required.
Precinct Line Road is designated as a "P7U" seven -lane undivided principal arterial with
130 feet of right -of -way. Adequate right -of -way exists along this property's frontage.
One restricted (full-in/right-out) driveway with a deceleration lane for southbound
Precinct Line traffic exists on the property and will remain. A residential driveway at the
southeast corner of the development will be converted to a 30' wide full - access
commercial driveway. An internal access point is being provided to allow this new
commercial driveway to also serve the property to the south when it develops in the
future. TxDOT has provided conceptual approval of this configuration.
STAFF REVIEW: The Development Review Committee has reviewed the proposed
Final Plat and has certified that it meets all applicable zoning and subdivision
regulations.
ROUGH PROPORTIONALITY: The public improvements necessary for the
Subdivision include the installation of water, sanitary sewer, and drainage facilities. The
construction of these public infrastructure items is required for the development of the
Subdivision as proposed by the developer. Therefore, the developer will be required to
assume 100 % of the amount required for the water, sanitary sewer, drainage and
paving public infrastructure improvements indicated on the final approved public
infrastructure construction plans for the Subdivision except as specified otherwise in this
paragraph.
The above determination of proportionality is made pursuant to Section 212.904, Texas
Local Government Code by the undersigned professional engineer in the employ of the
City of North Richland Hills, licensed by the State of Texas.
PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION: The Planning & Zoning Commission
considered this item at their July 18, 2013 meeting and voted to recommend approval
(4 -0).
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval of FP 2013 -09 and approval of two
contingent easement abandonments.

Subject: Agenda Item No. F.2
Conduct a Vote on Placing the Tax Rate Adoption on the Agenda of
the September 9, 2013 City Council Meeting
Presenter: Mark Mills, Budget Director
Summarv:
The City Council is requested to vote to place the adoption of the tax rate as an action
item on the September 9, 2013 Council Regular Agenda.
General Description:
In follow up to the FY 201312014 Budget Work Session, it is necessary to begin the
process to of establishing a tax rate for the next fiscal year, in accordance with the City
Charter and State law. At the Budget Work Session, a tax rate of 610 per $100 of
taxable valuation was proposed. This is the same as the currently adopted tax rate of
610.
Per Section 26.05(4) of the Tax Code, the City Council cannot adopt a tax rate that
exceeds the lower of the rollback tax rate or the effective tax rate until two public
hearings have been held on that tax rate. The City of North Richland Hills' proposed tax
remains below both the effective tax rate of 61.01112¢ and the rollback rate of 62.0977¢.
As a result, the City of North Richland Hills is not required to conduct public hearings on
the tax rate. The proposed tax rate will be presented as part of the public hearing on
the FY 2013114 Proposed Budget.
State law requires that the City Council vote to place the adoption of the tax rate on a
future City Council agenda as an action item. The date for this vote is planned for
September 9, 2013. This vote would appear as an action item on the agenda for the
regular City Council meeting.
Recommendation:
That a vote be taken to place the adoption of the tax rate as an action item on the
Monday. September 9, 2013 City Council agenda.

Amending Section 106 -1 3
Ordinances to Conform
Ordinance No. 3260
Presenter: George Staples, City Attorney
Date: 8 -12 -2013
of the North Richland Hills Code of
City Sign Regulations to State Law -
Summarv:
During the last legislative session the Texas Legislature amended laws concerning
electioneering on the grounds of public buildings during early and regular voting.
Ordinance No. 3260 will conform the City's sign regulations to the new State law.
General Description:
The last legislature ;passed HB 259 which amends Sec. 61.003 of the election code to
provide that the owners of public buildings used for polling cannot during early or
regular voting times restrict electioneering outside the area where electioneering is
prohibited by state law. It provides that the entity can enact reasonable regulations
concerning the time, place, and manner of electioneering. "Electioneering" is defined to
include the posting, use, or distribution of political signs or literature.
This conflicts with Sec. 109- 13(c)(6)(i) of the North Richland Hills Code of Ordinances
which prohibits political signs on public property, with a few exceptions:
Political signs shall not be placed on public property or within any federal, state
or local public right -of -way, except that political signs less than three feet in height and
with no more than six square feet of sign face on any side may be placed in public right -
of -way, other than a median, with no portion of such sign closer than three feet from the
back of the curb, or, if no curb, from the edge of the pavement of streets classified by
the city's thoroughfare plan as arterial PBD, M6D, M4D, P71J, M5U or M4U or collectors
classified as C4U or C2U as long as such sign is not placed in right of way adjacent to
an occupied residence or adjacent to publicly owned land other than a road. No sign
shall be placed within 30 feet of an identical sign. Signs shall not extend over the
sidewalk or street.
The proposed amendment provides a new subsection k to address the legislative
mandate:
k. Notwithstanding the other regulations of this chapter, for any building owned
by the city used for voting, unlighted political signs not exceeding three feet in height
and with no more than six square feet of sign face on any side may be posted on the
grounds of such building outside the distance where electioneering is prohibited by the
State during any voting period defined as beginning with the commencement of early
voting by personal appearance and ending after the polls close on the last day for early
voting by personal appearance for an early voting polling place, and beginning when the
polls open on election day and ending when the polls close on election day for an
election day polling place. (See Sec. 43.431(f), Texas Election Code) Such signs shall
not overhang any sidewalk or driveway.''
The City Attorney is recommending the passage of Ordinance No. 3260

COUNCIL MEMORANDUM
From: The Office of the City Manager Date: 8 -12 -2013
Subject: Agenda Item No. F.5
Consider Ordinance Amending Section 98 -142 of the North Richland
Hills Code of Ordnances Adopting an Additional Amendment to the
2006 Residential Code - Ordinance No. 3262
Presenter: Dave Pendley, Building Official
Summarv:
The proposed Ordinance No. 3262 is a housekeeping measure that modifies the 2006
International Residential Code by providing a means for city staff to gain entrance to a
rental property that happens to be occupied.
General Description:
The City of North Richland Hills ( "City ") adopted Ordinance No. 3162 (effective October
24, 20111) which requires an owner of a "residential rental unit" to obtain a Certificate of
Occupancy ( "CO ") prior to the unit being occupied by a new tenant. In order to obtain
the CO, the Building Official must inspect the unit for compliance with the city's Code of
Ordinances ( "Code "). There are three narrow exceptions to this requirement: (1) if the
unit is occupied by a member of the owner's immediate family; (2) if there was a
necessity to rent the unit to prevent foreclosure or similar economic hardship; and (3) if
the unit was inspected within the prior year and no complaint has been received
regarding such unit. The ordinance itself is silent as to the issue of how the building
official will get access to the property to perform the inspection, although obviously the
owner could consent. The International Residential Code which this ordinance amends
has a provision ,providing for remedies provided by law if entry into an unoccupied
building is refused, but is silent as to any remedy if the premises are occupied.
Case law indicates that a requirement for the owner to consent subjects him to a
warrantless search which violates the US Constitution's protection against
unreasonable searches and seizures. This is easily addressed by providing for an
administrative search warrant. An amendment has been drafted.
Recommendation:
Approve Ordinance No. 3262

WHEREAS, the North Richland Hills City Council desires to adopt an additional
amendment to the 2006 International Residential Code; NOW,
THEREFORE,
BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND
HILLS, TEXAS:
Section 1: THAT Section 98 -142 of the North Richland Hills Code of Ordinances be
amended by amending Exhibit "A" to add an additional amendment to the
2006 International Residential Code to read as follows
"** Amend section R104.6; change to read as follows:
R104.6 Right of Entry. Where it is necessary to make an inspection to
enforce the provisions of this code, or where the building official has
reasonable cause to believe that there exists in a structure or upon a
premises a condition which is contrary to or in violation of this code which
makes the structure or premises unsafe, dangerous or hazardous, the
building official or his designee is authorized to enter the structure or
premises at reasonable times to inspect or to perform the duties imposed
by this code, provided that if such structure or premises be occupied that
credentials be presented to the occupant and entry requested. If entry is
refused by the occupant, the building official shall have recourse to the
remedies provided by law to secure entry. If such structure or premises
be unoccupied, the building official shall first make a reasonable effort to
locate the owner or other person having charge or control of the structure
or premises and request entry. If entry is refused by the owner or other
person having charge or control of the structure or premises, the building
official shall have recourse to the remedies provided by law to secure
entry."
Section 2: It is hereby declared to be the intention of the City Council that the
sections, paragraphs, sentences, clauses and phrases of this ordinance are severable
and, if any phrase, clause, sentence, paragraph or section of this ordinance shall be
declared unconstitutional or otherwise invalid by the final judgment or decree of any
court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity shall not affect any of the remaining
phrases, clauses, sentences, paragraphs and sections of this ordinance, since the
same would have been enacted by the city council without the incorporation in this
ordinance of any such invalid phrase, clause, sentence, paragraph or section.

amount not to exceed Two Thousand Dollars ($2,000.00). Each day any such violation

by law.

Every Council Meeting, we spotlight our employees for the great things they do. Tonight
we recognize.
Joyce Fister of the Neighborhood Services Department - A resident emailed thanks
and appreciation for Joyce, who took time out of her weekend to assist him. The
resident said he was unable to come by the Neighborhood Services Office during
normal business hours to pick up a voucher for disposing of hazardous waste. Joyce
made arrangements to come in on a Saturday morning to help him. "The citizens of
North Richland Hills are fortunate to have an employee such as Joyce serving their
needs," he said.
