Adjournment INFORMAL REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL No. IR 99-243 Date November 22, 1999 Subject 817 Area Code Relief Planning Issues The 817 area code is running out of numbers This past Tuesday November 9, 1999 Paulette Hartman and I attended a Public Utility Commission (PUC) meeting in Fort Worth regarding the proposed options for the planned 817 area code relief project The PUC is seeking input on 5 options until December 3, 1999 The purpose of this IR is to give you an overview of the options being considered in order to allow Council to provide its input to the PUC by the December 3rd deadline. Staff is seeking your consensus on which of the five proposed options you would prefer and what action, if any, you might want to take regarding this matter at the November 22, 1999 City Council meeting Attached you will find a map and a description of the 5 options the PUC is considering. The boundaries on this map do not reflect City limits, instead they reflect current Southwestern Bell rate center boundaries For the purposes of the descriptions, a "geographic split' is where an existing area code boundary is split into two geographic areas leaving the existing area code to serve the portion with the highest customer density; an "overlay' is when a new area code is opened up within the same geographic area as the existing area code None of these changes will affect long distance calling. The options are described by the PUC as follows 1. Option 1 is an "all services" overlay. The entire 817 region would receive a new, second area code, so all telephone customers would have to dial 10 digits to complete a local call. Old customers would retain their original number. New customers could be assigned either area code. 2 Option 2 is a geographic split. Fort Worth and communities north, west, and south of the city would be assigned one area code The eastern portion of area code 817, the mid-cities region, would be assigned a new area code. This option would preserve seven-digit dialing and would also preserve a geographic identity in the region. 3 Option 3 is a geographic split plus an overlay. Fort Worth and the mid-cities would keep area code 817 with a new area code overlaid onto this area Calls made within the overlaid area would require ten-digit dialing The more rural area south and west of Fort Worth would receive a new area code and retain seven-digit dialing. 4. Option 4 is a concentrated overlay. Telephone customers in Fort Worth, the mid- cities, and small segments of Wise and Denton counties would receive a second area code in addition to 817. These customers would have to dial 10 digits to complete a local calf. The remaining telephone customers would keep area code 817 and only have to dial seven digits to complete a call. a ISSUED BY THE CITY MANAGER NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS 5 Option 5 is boundary realignment coupled with an overlay Under this option, customers in the more rural south and western portion of the current 817 area code would be shifted to the 940 area code The 940 area code is northwest of the 817 area code and includes Wichita Falls Under this option customers in the remaining portions of the 817 area code would receive an overlay similar to that described in Option 3 Fort Worth seems to prefer options 1 or 4 Their main goal seems to be keeping the city in one area code or not having a geographic split that would put different parts of the city in different area codes We are continuing to discuss this matter with Tarrant County cities In any event. it seems that the prevailing option for the 817 area code is some type of overlay, which will result in an additional area code in NET and the Fort Worth area The new area code would be assigned to new telephone numbers, and 10-digit dialing would be required in this area The PUC will be making its final decision on which option to implement in December More than likely the decision will be made at the December 16, 1999 meeting of the PUC Commissioners PUC staff implementation estimates range from Spring 2000 to Fall 2000 Please contact myself or Paulette Hartman if you have questions or want additional information This item will be placed on the November 22nd City Council meeting agenda for any input on the plans the Council wishes to submit to the PUC Respectfully submitted, 'a Greg Vic Managing Director of Community Services & Facilities NPA B17 Rate Center Map a•.r.ser• M•MTIll Option in Overlay 817 NPA & OVERlLA■ ■ PA IVO 1 NPA B17 Legend Includes Rate Centers NPA Bcurva-y 1 1 Pate Cente•ELrda es w w.wae,sae ea..n an.V Wig Option # 1 is an "all services" overlay.

The Parks Board reviewed the proposed ordinance in view of the City Council discussion and decided to send the ordinance to the Planning and Zoning Commission. The Planning and Zoning Commission held a public hearing November 11, 1999 as recommended by the City Council. They unanimously recommended denial of the ordinance. An appeal from a P&Z denial is required to be filed within 10 days. The last day to file an appeal is 11-21-99. To preserve the City Council's option, staff has filed the appeal. This item is to determine whether the City Council would like to continue with the appeal or let the matter drop, as a zoning ordinance amendment. If Council wishes to continue the appeal, nothing need be done. It will appear on your December 131' agenda. If the Council would like to withdraw the appeal, staff will do that Tuesday morning. Respectfully submitted, es 9_9 Managing Director of Community Services and Facilities GTV/Id a ISSUED BY THE CITY MANAGER NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS INFORMAL REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL No. IR 99-244 Date November 22, 1999 -- Subject Donations and Sponsorships for Events At various times and for various City-sponsored events, City staff will approach area businesses regarding becoming an official sponsor of an event and/or making donations towards an event or program In recent weeks a question has surfaced regarding the appropriateness of Boards and Commission members approaching area businesses for donations, including the appropriateness of using City letterhead to solicit for such donations. The purpose of this informal report is to provide some information regarding when City departments make such approaches and for which events, and to receive some direction from the City Council on two questions. The first question is whether it is appropriate for Boards and Commission members to approach businesses for donations, and the second is whether some standards should be set for approaching businesses regarding donations There are several issues to consider in determining whether it is appropriate for certain entities to approach businesses for donations and/or sponsorships. First, it is important to consider the regulatory authority of an entity and which businesses may be impacted by decisions of that entity. Requests for donations and/or sponsorships from such entities may seem unethical considering it could be seen as requesting favors in return for favorable treatment. Second, measures should be taken in order to ensure that businesses are not being inundated with requests for donations toward events. A third issue would be who has the authority to approach businesses regarding sponsorships and donations. A few cities have policies regarding donations and allow only director-level staff to make such approaches. It is important to note that there is a difference between sponsorships and donations. "Sponsorships" provide a direct and indirect benefit to both the sponsor and the event organizer The sponsor contractually agrees to the funding level and/or "in-kind" contributions towards the financing of events that provide a marketing or revenue based benefit back to the sponsor. The idea is to match events, target markets and sponsors to create'win-win" situations that benefit all parties at appropriate levels of participation. The sponsor wins because they gain exposure and direct access to their target markets The city wins because we are able to save tax dollars by providing opportunities for sponsors to help finance events. Donations are considered door prizes or specific items (t-shirts, items for garage sale, etc ), one time cash donations, discount pnces for food, drinks, use of facilities, etc. Attached is a list of some City sponsored events showino which events the City seeks sponsors for and which events the City seeks donations to. It seems that some standards should be set regarding soliciting of donations, including standards as to what types of events are appropriate for solicitation of donations and/or sponsorships as well as who should be approaching business for such events. This would provide clear direction from the City Council to City staff as well as Boards and Commission members regarding this issue am ISSUED BY THE CITY MANAGER NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS A possible simple approach might be to state that sponsorships or solicitations of donations by City Departments or Citizen Boards could be permitted after description and justification of need and upon approval by City management Currently, City departments seeking sponsorships and solicitations of donations are informally handled in that manner but this does not apply to City boards and commissions I do not want to see us get overly restrictive, but it would be helpful to have some guidelines and Council s thinking on this matter We look forward to discussing this issue with you Monday Respectfully submitted {1 Ott Larry J Cunningham City Manager Events Departments solicit sponsorships for Parks & Recreation • Kid-Fish • State sports tournament • Corporate Challenge • Adult Spring Softball • Easter in the Park • Daddy/Daughter Valentine dance • Boo Bash • Community Health &Wellness Fair • Richland Tennis Center Demo days • Tennis Tournaments at Richland Tennis Center Police Department- • DARE skate night at Rollerworld • DARE Mountasia day • SALT— senior fraud conference • Santa Cops Human Resources • Employee Appreciation Day Economic Development • Northeast Family Fourth Fire Department • Fire Prevention Week Open House • Toy drive • Firefighters Assn golf tournament (Firefighters Assn) Events Departments solicit donations for.

If the City Council desires, the room could be expanded as shown on the attached drawing. The expansion would create more seating room, a separate food service area, and allow all present to better see the projection screen. The attached drawing shows the effect of adding an additional 12' to the room. This expansion would also allow placement of a remote camera to free up space and create better coverage of the room's activities.

The request is to reduce Simmons Drive in segments as it goes south into the heart of the Town Center. Segment 1 — Mid-Cities Boulevard to Cardinal Lane - to remain a C4U (NRH Thoroughfare designation) Segment 2 — Cardinal Lane to Ice Haus Strasse — CS-70-40 (Town Center Thoroughfare Plan designation —commercial street category with parallel parking) Segment 3 — Ice Haus Strasse south to the Town Center — ST-60-31 (Town Center Thoroughfare Plan designation —residential street category with parallel parking) The Village Architect, Duany Plater-Zyberk & Company (DPZ) has recommended that Simmons Drive be reduced totally from a C4U, a Major Collector, 4 Lanes, undivided to a ST-60-31, a Residential Street. The Commission recommended a slight revision to the 2nd and 3rd segments. See the attached Exhibit 1 and 2 submitted by Carter and Burgess illustrating their original request and P&Z's recommendation The applicant desired the width of the street and the number of lanes to reduce in segments as Simmons Drive continues southward Originally, the applicant requested as the street narrows to allow parallel parking on the east side of the street in the second segment and then on both sides of the street in the third segment. Simmons Drive is the eastern most street in the existing Town Center Zoning District, which is based on the traditional neighborhood development (TND) concept. The Blue Line Ice facility located at the northwest corner of Simmons Drive and Ice Haus Strasse is designated as Neighborhood Center. Commercial Streets such as a CS-70-40 are deemed appropriate for commercill buildings The area south of Ice Haus Strasse is designated as Neighborhood General. Residential Streets such as a ST-60-31 and ST- 60-34 are appropriate for residential buildings See the attached diagrams of CS-70-40, ST-60-31 and ST-60-34.

The estimated number of visitors is 1 2 million people annually The Public Safety Departments of Police and Fire are very concerned that traffic be controlled for purposes of safety and convenience for automobile traffic as well as pedestrian traffic. Blue Line Ice is scheduled to have 28 Texas Tornado games next year The total seating capacity of all three sheets is 3,024 Inevitably a function will be occurring jointly at the Birdville High School across the street The High School has a driveway entrance on Simmons Drive with an adjacent parking lot that will be used during the day by the school staff and in the afternoons and evening for practices and games at the ball fields. The Public Safety Officials are concerned the parallel parking proposed on the second and third segments will impede their ability to control the traffic and emergency rescue access Attached are memos from the Police and Fire Department that state their preferences with no regard for the concepts of a TND The Police and Fire Department are both cognizant of the planning concepts and are willing to work with the planning concepts, while maintaining the public safety and welfare. Both Departments would prefer that no parking be allowed on the second segment. If it is determined at a later date, after the opening of Blue Line Ice, that the parallel parking would not be an issue with traffic and emergency rescue access, then the requested parallel parking could be allowed. The C2U designation would accomplish the desire to reduce the width and still allow possible parking. Attachment 1 is a table that outlines the requests for amendments to the Master Thoroughfare Plan requirements, the applicants proposal, P&Z's recommendation and staffs recommendation. Staffs recommendation differs from P&Z's only on Segment 3 The reason for the difference is that the Commission had concerns with the width of the street with parallel parking on either side Staffs recommendation would still be a residential street with the pavement width being 4 feet wider and allowing parallel parking on both sides in keeping with the TND RECOMMENDATION: The Planning and Zoning Commission at their public hearing on July 8, 1999 voted 6 to 0 to recommend approval of PS 99-18, Segment 1. To allow as a C4U from Mid-Cities Boulevard to Cardinal Lane; Segment 2 To allow as a C2U from Cardinal Lane to Ice Haus Strasse; Segment 3 To allow as a ST-60-31 south of Ice Haus Strasse to Simmons where it turns to the east and to allow parallel parking only on one side. To approve PS 99-18 as recommended by the Planning and Zoning Commission on Segments 1 & 2 and Segment 3 be revised to a ST-60-34 south of Ice Haus Strasse to where it turns east allowing parallel parking on both sides.

This ordinance approved a franchise agreement with Southwestern Bell Telephone Co. (SWBT) to provide local telephone service to residents of the City. This franchise agreement was for a term of seven (7) years and would have expired January 1, 2000. Ord. No. 1854 had a "Specified Annual Payment" (SAP) with a growth factor that determined annual compensation to the City. With the deregulation of local telephone service at the State and Federal levels this franchise agreement was modified in March, 1999 with approval of Ordinance No. 2376. This ordinance superceded Ord. No. 1854 and provided for a two-tiered (residential and non-residential) "per line access fee' for any company providing local telephone service in North Richland Hills. Subsequent to approval of Ord. No. 2376, the 76th Texas Legislature approved House Bill 1777, also known as Chapter 283 of the Local Government Code. Pursuant to HB 1777, all telecommunications franchises between a "Certificated Telecommunications Provider" (CTP) and a municipality will be based on a fee-per-line method, similar to what was approved under Ord. No. 2376. HB 1777 details the methodology cities are required to use to calculate those fees and escalation provisions. The legislation states that cities will base their calculations on actual earnings for calendar year 1998 with provisions for escalation based on increases in lines and an inflation factor. The Bill further states that the City will use whatever agreement was in effect as of January 12, 1999 to determine compensation. The City has been receiving compensation from SWBT since July 1, 1999 based on the "per-line access fee" method, however, we are required to revert to Ord. No. 1854 and the SAP provisions to determine compensation under the new law. Finance Review Source of Funds Account Number Bonds (GO/Rev ) Sufficient Funds Available Operating Budget Other Finance Director `—�a9 J � : k `yam Department He ignature ity Manager ign- ure Page 1 of 2 CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS The City is required, under the provisions of HB 1777, to report their 1998 franchise compensation and an allocation formula to the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUC) on or before December 1, 1999 Staff is working with SWBT to obtain information necessary to comply with reporting requirement of the PUC. Since it is likely that we will not have the information prior to the November 22, 1999 City Council meeting, the attached ordinance authorizes the City Manager to determine the allocation amounts under the new guidelines and submit the information to the PUC by December 1, 1999 Under the current provisions, residential customers are paying $0.87 per month and non- residential customers are paying $2.41 per month. HB 1777 retains these two tiers and adds a third tier of "private lines" which are direct ring down lines, such as are used by Automatic Teller Machines. After we have received the necessary information from SWBT, a formula will be used to establish new allocations. The primary focus of these new allocations will be to keep the residential per-line monthly fee at or near the current $0.87. Non-residential and private line allocations will remain near the current rate of $2.41. This is an action that has been mandated by the State Legislature and the Public Utility Commission of Texas. RECOMMENDATION: To approve Ordinance No. 2432 authorizing the City Manager to determine the allocation formula and rates and submitting this information to the Public Utility Commission of Texas prior to December 1, 1999.

Such determination shall be made pursuant to the current guidelines affecting franchises 3. The report shall be forwarded to the Public Utility Commission of Texas prior to December 1 1999. 4 The City Council finds that the base amount of compensation for certified telecommunication subscribers' use of public rights of way is $503,506.00. 5 This Ordinance shall be in full force from and after its date of passage and approval PASSED AND APPROVED this 22nd day of November, 1999.

This Property is Located at 7651 N.E. Loop 820 and 4701 Nancy Lane CASE SUMMARY Huggins Honda has submitted a Site Plan Review on the two lots, which are the remaining portions after right-of-way for the widening of Loop 820 was obtained. Huggins Honda desires to use the two lots for a non-required accessory off-street parking lot. The lots contain a total of 9,163 square feet The proposed parking lot will contain 22 parking spaces with a one-way driving lane. The entrance to the parking lot is from an existing driveway on Susan Lee Lane. The exit to the parking lot is from an existing driveway on the frontage road of N.E. Loop 820 The applicant has submitted the Site Plan Review Application in conjunction with a landscape vanance request (LRC 99-07). The landscape variances were approved by City Council on November 8, 1999 with the condition that the existing 6 foot wooden fence be replaced with another 6 foot wooden fence. The Commission upheld Council's conditions of approval of the landscaping variances approved. The property to the north is zoned and developed single family. The subject property at one time was developed as a small retail stnp center. When N.E. Loop 820 was widened the area devoted to off-street parking was removed The buildings were demolished and the foundation is all that remains.

PZ 99-35 CONSIDER THE SITE PLAN REVIEW OF HUGGINS HONDA FOR LOTS 5R1 & 27R1, BLOCK 4, RICHLAND TERRACE ADDITION AND ZONED LOCAL RETAIL. THIS PROPERTY IS LOCATED AT 7651 NE LOOP 820 AND 4701 NANCY LANE. APPROVED Ms. Ratcliff explained that Huggins Honda has requested site plan approval on two lots, which are remaining portions left after the widening of Loop 820. The applicant would like to use the lots for non-required accessory off-street parking. Twenty-two parking spaces would be provided with a one-way driving lane. An entrance to the parking lot is from an existing driveway on Susan Lee Lane, an exit from the parking lot is from an existing drive on the frontage road of Loop 820 Ms. Ratcliff explained that on November 8, 1999, the City Council granted variances to the landscape ordinance for this proposed parking lot. Staff recommends approval of PZ 99-35 contingent upon a 6' wooden fence along the northern property line being replaced with a new wooden fence. Ms Ratcliff responded to a question, stating that while current ordinances require a masonry-screening wall between the proposed parking lot and the existing single family neighborhood, the City Council at the November 8, 1999 meeting had approved the replacement of a 6' wooden fence, which currently exists. She explained that the Commission has the ability to recommend differently. This case will be heard before the City Council on November 22, 1999. Ron Huggins, applicant, presented his request explaining he believed the City Council approved a wooden fence in lieu of a masonry screening fence because of the limited use of the property and due to the cost difference. He explained that he plans on making drastic visual improvements to the property. Mike Wilson, 4805 Susan Lee Lane, stated that while he wasn't opposed to the use of the property as employee parking he has several areas of concern, which consisted of " Overnight parking of semi-trucks • the proposed drive approach on Susan Lee Lane ✓ an existing un-used pole on the property • existing pipelines on the property Additionally, Mr. Wilson would like to see wheel stops required at each parking space to protect the replaced wooden fence from damage. Additional opponents in this case were: Starline Autry, 4800 Susan Lee Lane Mr. Wakoster, 4808 Susan Lee Lane Mr. Ricky Vinson, 4709 Deville, stated that while he isn't a resident in this neighborhood, he previously lived around the Payton-Wright Ford dealership in Grapevine and after seeing this case on Citi-Cable Monday night felt compelled to speak on behalf of the surrounding, existing neighbors. He cited increased lighting, noise & property devaluation. Mr. Huggins stated that lights was a consideration in the planning of the proposed parking lot; explaining that they were trying to take into consideration the impact of the neighbors while still puffing employee safety in place, explaining that he is willing to soften the lights towards the neighbors as well as keep a safety lighting feature for employees. Mr. Davis, seconded by Mr. Lueck, moved to approve PZ 99-35 subject to the following conditions: 1. Require wheel stops on all parking spaces. 2. Remove the pole that was once part of a pole sign. 3. Include signage on the lot that "No Overnight Parking is Allowed" and another sign if requested for "Employee Parking Only" not to exceed 6 square feet. 4. The three light standards shall not exceed 12 feet in height and the illumination angle shall not extend beyond the northern property line. The motion carried with a vote of 5 — 1. Messrs. Bowen, Blue, Davis, Welch & Lueck were in favor of the motion. Mr. Laubacher was opposed.

CASE SUMMARY David Carter is proposing to replat 2.4181 acres, which is a portion of Block B, into two lots. This property was rezoned (PZ 99-13) on June 14, 1999, from AG (Agricultural) and R2 (Single Family) to R1 (Single Family) and R-1-S (Special Single Family). Because this is a replat of residential property, a public hearing is necessary. Lot B3R1, fronting on Hightower Drive, is zoned R1 Single Family This lot contains 32,670 square feet. The minimum lot size is 13,000 square feet and the minimum dwelling size is 2,300 square feet. Lot B3R2, fronting on Hewitt Street, is zoned R-1-S Special Single Family.

The proposed plat is in conformance with the Subdivision Regulations with the exception of fire hydrant coverage. Plans show that Lot B3R1 will be entirely covered, but more than half of Lot B3R2, including a portion of the existing residence, does not have fire hydrant coverage Staff recommends the property owner sign a hold harmless agreement concerning fire protection from the City The hold harmless agreement will cover all of Lot B3R2. The public hearing was held on November 8, 1999. The applicant was not present at the meeting due to miscommunications. The applicant will be present at the meeting and has no problem with the hold harmless agreement. RECOMMENDATION: The Planning and Zoning Commission at their public hearing on October 14, 1999, recommended approval of PS 99-15 a replat to be known as Lots B3R1 & B3R2, Block B Hewitt Estates by a vote of 7 to 0.

Skare, P.E Staff Engineer SUBJECT: P599-15; HEWITT ESTATES ADDITION; Block B, Lots B3R1 & B3R2, Final (Replat) Plat We have reviewed the subject documents submitted to this office on August 10, 1999. The following items are for your consideration. 1. DRAINAGE ANALYSIS Public Works is not opposed to a site specific Engineered-grading plan in lieu of a drainage study. There is a significant quantity of runoff from the east draining to this lot 2 FIRE HYDRANT The Design Manual contains criteria for necessary fire hydrant coverage. Plans have been provided indicating an additional fire hydrant on Hightower Drive. This fire hydrant will cover the entire Lot 83R1. Over half of Lot B3R2, including a portion of the existing house, is not contained within 500 feet radial distance of a fire hydrant. 3. SIGNATURES The appropriate signatures need to be added to the Owner's Acknowledgment and Dedication on the mylar of the Final Plat. In addition, the surveyors seal and signature needs to be added to the mylar of the Final Plat. 4. SIDEWALKS Subdivision Regulations require sidewalks adjacent to all public streets. The sidewalks will need to be included with the construction plans for coordination purposes. It is important to have the sidewalks shown on the street plans so that the utilities will not be constructed to interfere with the future sidewalk. This comment was previously made and has not been addressed. 5. STREET LIGHTING Street Lighting is required by Section 1-06 of the Design Manual The locations of any existing streetlights need to be shown on the topographical drawing to confirm compliance with current ordinances Any additional streetlights that may be required based on current ordinances need to be coordinated with Public Works and TU Electric The developer will pay the cost for installation of any additional streetlights directly to TU Electric. This comment was previously made and has not been addressed. P O.

The property is located at 7536 Grapevine Highway and is platted as Lot 1 R, Block D, Calloway Farm Addition. Mr. Lin is requesting multiple variances to the Sign Regulations, Ordinance 2374 for a pole sign to be placed on an existing 30-foot pole located at 7536 Grapevine Highway. The existing pole currently has no sign structure mounted on top. The requested variances are as follows: Section 13.A.1.b When Permitted To allow a pole sign where the area of the principal building is less than 10,000 square feet (7,900 square feet). Section 13.A.1.c Maximum Area To exceed the maximum sign area of 100 s.f. by approximately 20 square feet allowing a 120 s.f. sign area. Section 13.A.1.d Maximum Height To exceed the maximum sign height of 20 feet by approximately ten feet allowing a 30 foot high pole sign. Section 13.A.1.e Sign Location To encroach the 20-foot setback requirement from a property line adjacent to a street by approximately 16 feet allowing a four-foot setback. Section 13.A.1.i Material Requirements To not require a double pole structure and not require the poles to be covered with masonry material that match the principal building thereby allowing the existing single pole with no masonry material coverage. RECOMMENDATION: To Deny SRC 99-04 in its entirety for 7536 Grapevine Highway, Lot 1 R, Block D, Calloway Farm Addition. Although there is an existing pole located on the site, the absence of a pre-existing sign structure negates any legal non-conforming status for a pole sign on this site.

Public Hearing to Consider Amending Ordinance Number Agenda Number GN- 99-137 2374, Sign Regulations Adding Definitions, Amending Administration and Enforcement, Table of Permitted Signs and Nonconforming Signs—Ordinance No. 2435. City Council met on October 25, and November 8,1999 with Ms Brenda McDonald and Mr. Rob Baldwin of McDonald Associates to discuss general concepts, feed back on what Council wanted to see with the ordinance and reviewed draft amendments. Based on the input, Ms. McDonald has drafted the attached proposed language to the Sign Regulations for your review. City Council at the last meeting expressed concerns about allowing wall signs to be painted on structures. The proposed language would not allow signs to be painted on walls. Staff would recommend Council reviewing this wall signage at another time to allow some time to think about what is trying to be accomplished.

GN99-139 Bylaws On November 8, City Council approved a set of Bylaws which established the purpose and powers of Tax Reinvestment Zone Number 2 and its Board—as well as the processes for appointing officers—as stipulated by State law The Council also later voted to designate Mayor Charles Scoma as Chairman of TIRZ Number 2. At that time, Councilman Lyle Welch requested that the Council consider appointing Councilmember Oscar Trevino to the Board, increasing the City's number of delegates from six to seven, and the total number of Board delegates from 9 to 10 With three other taxing entities expected to participate in the Zone (Tarrant County, Tarrant County College District and Tarrant County Hospital District), City Attorney Rex McEntire recommended at the last meeting that Council appoint an even number of City delegates to maintain an odd number of total Board members. The addition of another delegate would create an even-numbered Board Thus, Council may want to go ahead and amend the number of City delegates to eight—so all of the City Council members may participate and the Board still maintain an odd number (eleven). Staff has prepared the attached draft amendments to the TIRZ Bylaws reflecting the addition of two City :egates. RECOMMENDATION That Council consider Councilman Welch's request to amend the TIRZ Number 2 Bylaws and increase the City's number of Board delegates—and increase the total from six to eight so the Board may maintain an odd number of total delegates.

As mentioned in the previous agenda item, Councilman Welch requested the TIRZ Number 2 Board be increased in size so that Councilman Trevino could be appointed to the Board. The City Attorney had previously recommended that Council appoint an even number of Board members in order to have an odd-numbered Board make-up since there are three other non-City Board members. If Council chooses to amend the Bylaws of Reinvestment Zone Number 2 on November 22, the City will have one or two vacancies on the Zone's Board of Directors depending on Council's decision on size.

These two reserve ambulances have become breakdown prone and unreliable. City Staff has been exploring options for securing newer, more mechanically sound and reliable reserve units. A committee of Paramedics was formed to research the issue and bring forward potential alternatives Those alternatives have been studied and evaluated by the Fire Department Staff with input from the Fire Department mechanic. Remounting either of the existing modular units is not a cost-effective option We believe it best to contact other agencies, manufacturers and distributors to identify potential sound and reliable reserves. We have done this and a couple of realistic vehicles have been located. These are at D/FW Airport and Emergency Vehicles of Texas, located in North Richland Hills The D/FW Airport has a self-contained modular Frazer, Inc. ambulance, mounted on a Ford F-350 chassis that has been rotated out of service due to Federal Aviation Administration age guidelines for airport ambulances This unit has 66,126 miles on it and would function well as a reserve ambulance for the City The Airport has turned the unit over to Rene Bates Auctioneers to be sold through a sealed bid process Bids are due to them by 5 OOp.m., November 29, 1999 We have been in contact with a representative from the manufacturer and determined a fair market value for this used unit Finance Review Source of Funds Account Number Bonds (GO/Rev ) Sufcent Funds Available Operating Budget Other /a/. `Ht Finance Director Departm-It Head eit nature (-City Managed ig)rature Page 1 of _ CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS In order to maintain a competitive edge in the sealed bid process. we need authorization for an amount greater than the fair market value and greater than our intended bid quote The Fire Department mechanic has evaluated this unit and states that it is mechanically sound A second ambulance has been identified as available for purchase through a local firm Emergency Vehicles of Texas, located in North Richland Hills, has a "new" 1996 modular unit on a 1996 Ford F-350 chassis This unit has never been registered or placed in service and has 1277 miles The unit was ordered by another company that never took delivery of, or paid for, the unit. Emergency Vehicles of Texas has submitted a proposal to sell the unit to the City of North Richland Hills at a discounted price. Staff will be exploring the requirements necessary to bring a bid to the City Council at a later date on this 1996 Emergency One unit. Sufficient Funds are available in the Vehicle Capital Replacement Account Recommendation To authorize the purchase of a 1994 ambulance from the Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, through a sealed bid process conducted by Rene Bates Auctioneer, in an amount not to exceed $30,000 CITY COUNCIL ACTION ITEM Page of INFORMAL REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL No. IR 99-242 Date November 22, 1999 Subject National Flood Insurance Program (NAP) Community Rating System The normal citizen usually responds to the term "100 Year Floodplain" with a look of quandary. That same citizen will most likely shudder from the phrase "House Fire." People usually don't understand that if their home is in a floodplain, there is a 26% chance that the home will be flooded during the life of a 30-year mortgage. Compare those odds to the 5% chance that they will have a house fire. So, why doesn't the term floodplain upset everyone? Part of the answer is in the way we administer our floodplains. In North Richland Hills, we understand floodplains and the devastation left behind from heavy rains. Public Works' Engineers have actively pursued policies that limit the number of reoccurring damages to existing homes in the floodplain. These policies are recognized by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) as some of the best in the nation. On July 10, 1990, the Federal Insurance Administration (FIA) in cooperation with FEMA published a notice in the Federal Register that the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP)would begin a new initiative on October 1, 1990, the Community Rating System (CRS). Public Works pursued the new initiative on December 10, 1990 by applying to FEMA for CRS credit. North Richland Hills' application was reviewed and on October 1, 1991 was among the very first in the United States to obtain a CRS rating. Since that time, we have continued to improve the way we manage our floodplains. On October 1, 1994, we improved our CRS rating to 8 and were considered among the top 17% of the nation. The lower the number the better the rating. Effective October 1, 1999, we have again improved our CRS rating to 7. North Richland Hills is now in the top 8% of all CRS cities across the United States. Our program yields an obvious benefit to the citizens of North Richland Hills which is less homes flooded on an annual basis. There is also another benefit. Due to our level of expertise, all property in North Richland Hills which is located in a floodplain is now eligible for a 15% discount on flood insurance. Even those properties not in a floodplain are now eligible for a 5% discount on flood insurance. There are only four other cities in Texas that have obtained this recognition and none have a better rating. Respectfully submitted, Kevin B. Miller, P.E. Assistant Public Works Director a ISSUED BY THE CITY MANAGER NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS Federal Emergency Management Agency Washington, D C 20472 pI I;JG The Honorable Chaves Seoma SEP 7g 'mg Mayor North Richland Hills PO Box 820609 an p��,y North Richland Hills,TX 76182 HRH RIM!. Werka w. Dear Mayor Seomai Congratulations! Based on the field verification of your fine-year cycle application (report enclosed), I have determined that North Richland Hills will increase to a Class 7 ii the National Flood Insurance Program's (NAP) Community Rating System (CRS) This means that NFIP policies issued or renewed for properties in the Special Flood Hazard Areas(SFHAs) begmning October 1. 1999,will receive a 15 percent premium discount These continued savings are a tangible result of the voluntary activities your community has implemented. It should be noted that reduced rate Preferred Risk Policies are available for eligible properties in B. C, and X zones, and all policies El A99 zones,already receive premium reductions m the base rate Therefore,these zones are limited to a 5 percent CRS discount.All discounts are applied before the addition of certain food fees. Provided that there are no NFIP compliance actions,the rating will be automatically renewed yearly(no letter will be sent) as long as your community continues to implement the activities to which you annually certify each October. If no additional modifications or new activities are added, your community will not receive another verification for five years. Meanwhile,we wil periodically send you updated information to keep your community informed on the CRS. You are encouraged to add new activities annually to reach an even better CRS classrfication. Each improvement in CRS Class brings higher flood insurance premium savings and brings your community closer to being disaster resistant and a truly'sustainable community'.This is the goal of FEMA's new initiative, Project Impact,which seeks to focus the energy of businesses, citizens, and communities in the U S. on the importance of reducing their susceptibility to the impact of natural disasters, including hurricanes. severe stones, earthquakes, and widfres, in addition to floods. Project Impact will be using CRS communty classifications as one key source to document mitigation activities. For additional Project Impact information, please refer to the enclosed Fact Sheet and visit our Web site at www Tema oov If you have any questions regarding your classification or desire more information on the enclosed scoring, please contact our FEMA regional office within 30 days of this notification. However, if the request involves a change in points that does not change your overall CRS class, then due to resource constraints the request for reconsideration will not be reviewed. and should be included as a modification to your next application. Once again, I applaud your community for the CRS activities you've undertaken. ely, I 4j1 It" J• Ann Howard •minmralor Federal Insurance Administration Enclosure .Ni FIP http:'1www.fema govnfipitexas.hun ` * 1 Sr • .
