Discuss progress and review priorities of the 2007 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master plan and the Long Range Finance Plan for future projects. Vickie Loftice, Managing Director, provided a review of the priorities and accomplishments of the 1991, 2000 and 2007 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plans and requested direction on establishing new priorities as an update to the 2007 Master Plan. Shortly after the plan was adopted, the economy began to adversely impact revenue associated with the Park Development 4B sales tax. In addition, expenditures for operation and maintenance of our park system have increased over the years as our park system has grown. Some of the priorities from the 2007 plan have been completed while others remain uncompleted because of lack of resources, unavailable parcels of land needed for additional neighborhood parks and/or changing priorities. Priorities of the 2007 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan Development of Recreational and Parks Facilities 1. Trails 2. Modern Recreation Center 3. Development of a Neighborhood Park in the Central West Area 4. Walker's Creek Park Phase 2 5. Southside Multi-Purpose Community Center 6. Modern Senior Center 7. Amphitheater 8. Skateboard Park 9. Development of a Neighborhood Park in the Central East Area 10.Botanic Garden Park Renovation and Improvement 1. Northfield Park Redevelopment 2. Norich Park Phase 2 3. Cross Timbers Park Phase 2 4. Natural Areas and Open Space — Protection & Educational Signage 5. Trail Heads and Gateways 6. Fossil Creek Park Redevelopment October 5, 2015 City Council and Park and Recreation Joint Work Session Meeting Minutes Page 2 of 5 7. Richfield Park Infrastructure Improvements Ms. Loftice presented staff's recommendation for priority ranking: 1. Northfield Park Redevelopment 2. Linda Spurlock Renovation 3. Additional Trail Connections/Improvements 4. Norich Park Phase 2 Neighborhood park in far southwest NRH Fossil Creek park improvements Neighborhood parks in south central NRH Sprayground Dog Park south of 820 Skate Park or Skate Spots After a brief discussion and questions by the Council and Park and Recreation Board, a handout was given to each to rank each of the remaining projects on the 2007 Master Plan list. That list will be complied into the 2016 Master Plan and brought back to Council for final action. B. Discuss the Northfield Park Redevelopment Project and receive direction regarding the scope of the project. Bill Thornton, Assistant Director of Parks and Recreation, presented the Northfield Park Redevelopment Project. The Northfield Park Redevelopment Project was the top recommendation under the Renovation and Improvement category of the 2007 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan. The renovation project first appeared in the Park, Recreation and Facilities Development Corporation budget in 2001. The 29 acre park is one of the original four parks developed in the City, and the amenities are aged and in need of removal or renovation. The redevelopment project will provide the opportunity to correct many issues while emphasizing positive aspects of the park site. The adjacent 17 acre natural area immediately east of the park was donated to the City as required by the Little Bear Creek Ordinance. In September of 2014, a connection of the John Barfield Trail to the park was constructed in the natural area providing an important connection for adjacent neighborhoods. The park is now easily accessible for Thornbridge, Forest Glenn and Grace Meadows neighborhoods and users of the Cotton Belt Trail. This project will provide an investment in several of the city's established and growing residential areas and improve the delivery of parks and recreation services for our citizens. The 2015/16 Parks Capital Improvement Budget includes funding for design services in the amount of $397,000 with an estimated total project cost of$3.6 million. This amount addresses immediate needs within the constraints of the existing three softball fields. Although replacing existing park components and amenities as they are currently sited will address aging infrastructure needs, the re-development project can also provide the October 5, 2015 City Council and Park and Recreation Joint Work Session Meeting Minutes Page 3 of 5 opportunity to employ current park planning principles and landscape architectural methods in the form of a new, modern layout taking advantage of the synergy and appropriate adjacency of active recreation with passive uses. In this way, facilities can be well-planned and coordinated to ensure adequate adaptability to future needs and requirements. Northfield Park needs assessment: Entry signage (Davis Blvd.) $28,300 Restroom demo/construction $300,000 Pavilion demo/construction $120,900 Playground drainage and fall material $30,700 ADA accessible routes $42,000 Shade structures over ballfield seating $72,000 Road/parking replacement $970,418 Ballfield lighting replacement $936,000 Vehicular/security lighting replacement $168,000 Tennis/basketball court relocation $327,000 Trail loop construction $208,913 Wildlife viewing area $30,000 Irrigation conversion to Tucor $30,000 Tree planting $60,000 TOTAL: $3,366,661 Mr. Thornton presented a PowerPoint presentation with different options for the renovations of the park: • Option 1 - Includes leaving the three softball fields in their current location and designing around the three existing fields. • Option 2 - Relocates Field #1 (west field) adjacent to Fields #2 & #3 providing for better efficiency and modern park planning design. • Option 3 - Includes enhanced park amenities. After discussion on the budget and the options for redesign, the consensus was to keep the current ballfield locations and to set a cap of 4.3 million for the project. During the meeting a ranking of priorities was tabulated, resulting in the following: 1. Northfield Park Redevelopment 2. Linda Spurlock Park Renovation 3. Fossil Creek Park Improvements 4. Additional Trail Connections and Markings 5. Dog Park South of Loop 820 6. Norich Park Phase 2 7. Neighborhood Park in Far Southwest NRH 8. Cross Timbers Park Phase 2 9. Neighborhood Park in South Central NRH 10.Skate Park or Skate Spots October 5, 2015 City Council and Park and Recreation Joint Work Session Meeting Minutes Page 4 of 5 Ms. Loftice stated that the master plan would be updated and brought back to Council for final action.

This item is being brought forward as a result of discussion with the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council at their meetings in September.

FOR A ZONING CHANGE FROM "C-1 COMMERCIAL" TO "RI-PD RESIDENTIAL INFILL PLANNED DEVELOPMENT" ON 6.412 ACRES LOCATED AT 7821 DAVIS BOULEVARD. DENIED Mayor Trevino opened the public hearing and called on Planning Manager Clayton Comstock to present the item. Planning Manager Clayton Comstock presented item for Council. The purpose of the request is to consider a zoning change from Johnson Diversified Enterprises, Inc. for a 35-lot residential development on the west side of Davis Boulevard between Bursey Road and Green Valley Road. The proposed development includes 35 residential lots with a density of 5.5 dwelling units per acre, with lots 50-feet wide, and a mix of front- entry and side-swing garages. Staff is recommending denial of the request due to inconsistency with the Comprehensive Plan, residential density, and design of proposed development. The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their October 15, 2015 meeting, recommended approval with the following revisions: 1. Removing all entry gates from the proposal; 2. Making all streets public and meet the city's design criteria; 3. Using more decorative iron fencing with pickets and finials along the perimeter; and 4. Minimum dwelling unit size of 2,000 square feet; however, allowing a maximum of seven (7) units at 1,800 square feet. Applicant Ben Johnson, 3509 Windsor Forest Drive, Grapevine, presented the request. Mr. Johnson commented that he developed Liberty Village, the first RI-PD in the City of North Richland Hills. The proposed project and location was selected to provide affordable and high-quality residential homes in an area that is predominately residential. The zoning of RI-PD is not unprecedented as development with this zoning category is in the vicinity (LaFontaine and Liberty Village). Mr. Johnson commented November 9, 2015 City Council Meeting Minutes Page 8 of 15 that his understanding of RI-PD is utilized to stimulate development in an area that has no activity. He reviewed with Council the proposed concept site map and outlined mitigation to address concerns from staff regarding front-entry garages.

The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their October 5, 2015 meeting, recommended approval with a vote of 5- 0. Mr. Comstock advised that staff is recommending denial.
