MOTION TO APPROVE CARRIED 5-0. MItH NORTH KICHL,AND HILLS CITY COUNCIL MEMORANDUM FROM: The Office of the City Manager DATE: August 8, 2016 SUBJECT: SUP 2015-03, Ordinance No. 3422, Public Hearing and consideration of a request from Dwayne Caraway for a Special Use Permit for a 100-foot Communication Tower located at 8321 Davis Boulevard. PRESENTER: Clayton Husband, Principal Planner SUMMARY: On behalf of H.W. and Brenda Gilbreath, Dwayne Caraway is requesting a special use permit (SUP) for a 100-foot tall monopole communications tower facility. The proposed site is located at 8821 Davis Boulevard. GENERAL DESCRIPTION: The zoning ordinance requires approval of an SUP for any communications tower over 45 feet in height. Communication towers are permitted by SUP in all nonresidential zoning districts. The zoning ordinance also includes regulations and standards for communication towers. These standards are intended to minimize the adverse visual effect of the towers, provide careful siting of tower structures, and maximize the opportunities for co-location of multiple service providers. The wireless provider associated with this application is Verizon Wireless. A complete site plan package for the proposed tower is attached. The total property is 2.17 acres in size, but the lease area for the communication tower is a 2,500-square-foot located at the rear of the property. Planned improvements to the site include a 100-foot tower with associated equipment, a masonry wall enclosure around the lease area, a new drive approach on Davis Boulevard, and landscaping around the drive approach and pad site enclosure. The tower includes a one-foot lightning rod, bringing the total overall height to 101 feet. The tower and lease area are also designed to accommodate antennae and equipment for two additional wireless carriers. Section 118-768(b) of the zoning ordinance requires that tower locations conform to the adopted Communication Tower Buffer Zone Map. These standards require a 300-foot buffer from residentially zoned property, a 150-foot buffer from arterial streets and commuter rail lines, and a 1,500-foot buffer from another communication tower. The location of the proposed tower satisfies these setbacks, as shown in the map below. The green areas represent locations that conform to the setback standards. MRH NORTH KICHL,AND HILLS r p WJO � 1 1 Y I �wr l r, F � i � z Due to the tower's proposed location near a public park and residential areas, the Development Review Committee requested that the application provide visualizations showing how the area would appear after the construction of the tower. The images provided by the applicant are attached. Applications for special use permits provide an opportunity to address modifications to specific development standards for the site and consider reasonable conditions on the operation, location, arrangement, and manner of construction. A requested modification to the standards is described in more detail below. All other development standards for communication towers have been satisfied. Tower setback The applicant is requesting a waiver of the required tower setback on the west side of the property. The standards require that the tower be located in such a manner that if the structure should fall along its longest dimension it will remain within the property boundaries and avoid habitable structures and streets. Based on the proposed tower height, the required setback from all property lines is 100 feet. The tower location meets this standard on all sides except for the west property line. The applicant is requesting a setback of 13 feet on the west side. The adjacent property is located in a flood plain, and there are no habitable structures or streets within 100 feet of tower. In addition, the lease area was selected to lessen the effect of the tower location on the future development of the site. The DRC finds the modified setback acceptable. ?g1kH NORTH KICHL,AND HILLS COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: This area is designated on the Comprehensive Land Use Plan as "Office." This designation is intended to permit professional and organizational offices with accessory and related uses. CURRENT ZONING: The property is currently zoned AG Agricultural. The purpose of the AG district is to preserve lands best suited for agricultural use from encroachment of incompatible uses, and to preserve land suited to eventual development into other uses pending proper timing for practical economical provision of utilities, streets, schools, and other facilities so that reasonable development may occur. PROPOSED ZONING: The applicant is requesting a special use permit for a communication tower over 45 feet in height. A change in the base zoning of Agricultural is not requested or required. SURROUNDING ZONING I LAND USE: North: AG Agricultural I Office West: C-1 Commercial and R-2 Single Family Residential I Parks-Open Space South: C-1 Commercial I Office East: AG Agricultural I Office PLAT STATUS: The property is currently unplatted. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION: The Planning and Zoning Commission held a public hearing and considered this item at their July 21, 2016, meeting, and voted 5-0 to recommend approval, subject to a minimum setback of thirteen feet from the west property line and the owner providing access easement to the adjacent properties to the north and south of the subject site. An excerpt from the meeting minutes is attached. RECOMMENDATION: Approve SUP 2015-03, subject to a minimum setback of thirteen feet from the west property line and the owner providing access easement to the adjacent properties to the north and south of the subject site.

MItH NORTH KICHL,AND HILLS CITY COUNCIL MEMORANDUM From: The Office of the City Manager Date: August 8, 2016 Subject: Approve Resolution No. 2016-023 supporting a Municipal Setting Designation (MSD) Application to the Tarrant Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ). Presenter: Mike Curtis, Managing Director Summary: Council is being requested to approve a resolution supporting the application to Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) for a Municipal Setting Designation (MSD) on the property located at 600 North Beach Street, Fort Worth, Texas. General Description: This agenda item is to approve Resolution No. 2016-023 supporting an application of Industrial Power LLC to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) for the property located at 600 North Beach Street, Fort Worth, Texas. In 2003, the 78th Texas Legislature passed a Municipal Setting Designations (MSD) law that relates to potable groundwater and the requirements for removing contaminants from groundwater. The law authorized the TCEQ to receive, process and then certify MSD applications for properties within contaminated groundwater. The goal of this law is to reduce corrective action requirements and associated costs for clean-up of contaminated groundwater that is not used as a potable water supply and is not likely to be used in the future. Industrial Power LLC is trying to obtain TCEQ approval for a MSD for property located at 600 North Beach Street, Fort Worth, Texas. The City of Fort Worth passed an ordinance on April 19, 2016 prohibiting the use of groundwater for potable purposes at the designated property. The application to the TCEQ will need to include resolutions from cities located within a 5-mile radius of the MSD property indicating support of the MSD. The City has the choice to either support or not support the MSD application. Staff has reviewed the technical aspects of the application. Staff would recommend support of the resolution for the following reasons. 1. Based on the on-site groundwater investigation, the on-site shallow groundwater flow direction is towards southeast, away from North Richland Hills. In addition, the depth of on-site shallow groundwater encountered at the property is approximately 20 feet below the ground surface. The NRH water wells are IqRH located approximately 2.5 miles northeast of the subject property with well depths of ranging from 665 to 1,485 feet. 2. Considering the NRH water wells are located up-gradient to the subject property as well as the water well depths, the potential impact of the chemicals detected in the on-site shallow groundwater in NRH water wells is unlikely. 3. The contaminated groundwater is shallow and appears to be separated from another underlying body of deeper groundwater by a confining layer of rock. Therefore it does not threaten the deeper aquifers. 4. The only water wells located in NRH which fall into the 5 mile radius are either irrigation wells (at the golf course) or water wells that have been plugged and are no longer in use. Representatives for the applicant will be present at the Council Meeting to address any questions Council may have. Recommendation: Approve Resolution No. 2016-023. RESOLUTION NO. 2016-023 A RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT OF THE APPLICATION TO THE TEXAS COMMISSION ON ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY FOR A MUNICIPAL SETTING DESIGNATION AT 600 NORTH BEACH STREET, FORT WORTH, TEXAS. WHEREAS, on April 19, 2016 the City Council of the City of Fort Worth, Texas, approved Resolution number 4620-04-2016 and Ordinance No. 22176-04-2016, prohibiting the use of shallow groundwater for potable purposes at 600 North Beach Street, Texas; and WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Fort Worth, Texas, made a finding that it is in the best interest of the public and the city to facilitate the efforts Industrial Power LLC ("Applicant'), to secure a municipal setting designation with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) for said Site; and WHEREAS, Applicants have filed an application with the TCEQ for certification of a municipal setting designation for the Site pursuant to Texas Health and Safety Code, Chapter 361, Subchapter W, and have provided notice of such application to the City of North Richland Hills; and WHEREAS, Texas Health and Safety Code, § 361.8065 provides that an application to the TCEQ for a municipal setting designation will not be certified unless the application is supported by a resolution adopted by certain entities, including the city council of each municipality that owns or operates a groundwater supply well located not more than five miles from the property for which the designation is sought; and WHEREAS, the City of North Richland Hills owns or operates groundwater supply wells located not more than five miles from the boundary of said Site; and WHEREAS, Applicants have continuing obligations to satisfy applicable statutory and regulatory provisions concerning groundwater contamination investigation and response actions at the Site; and WHEREAS, the certification of a Municipal Setting Designation for the Site is in the best interests of the community; NOW THEREFORE NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS THAT: SECTION 1. The preambles to this Resolution are hereby adopted in their entirety and incorporated herein as though set forth in full herein. SECTION 2. Supports Applicant's application to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality for a Municipal Setting Designation of the Site. SECTION 3.

Notice was issued, as required by ordinance and a public meeting was held at the Riverside Community Center nn March 31. 2818. The groundwater that is sought to be restricted is shallow, perched groundwater that is underlain by a ' confining layer uf approximately 6V0 feet inthickness. The affected shallow groundwater io not a | � designated, recognized major or minor aquifer. The chemicals of concern detected in the designated . groundwater include arsenic, lead, cis-1,2-dichloroethene, tetrachloroethene, trichloroethene and } pentachlorophenol in the shallow groundwater at levels exceeding the applicable Tier 1 Texas Risk Reduction Program /TRRP\ Residential Protective Concentration Levels. The Fort Worth Water Department provides water service to all existing residential and commercial/ | ' industrial properties within the city limits of the City of Fort Worth, within half a mile of the MSD boundary. All undeveloped properties (within the city limits of the City of Fort Worth) within half a mile of the site are eligible to receive water service from the Fort Worth Water Department, in accordance with the Texas Water Service Certificate of Convenience and Necessity (CCN) No. 12311 and the City of Fort Worth Policy for the Installation of Community Services. The City of Haltom City has a border within one- half of a mile of the MSD boundary. In 2003, a state law became effective creating the concept of a MSD. The purpose of a MSD is to certify properties in order to limit the scope of or eliminate the need for investigation of or response actions addressing contaminant impacts to groundwater that has been restricted from use as potable water by municipal ordinance. A person, typically a developer, must apply to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) for certification of their property as a MSD. If granted, they will not be required to clean up designated groundwater on their site to drinking water standards, although other cleanup standards such as inhalation and contact must still be met. The application will not be approved by TCEQ if the municipality where the site is located does not give formal approval. That approval must be by means of a City Council resolution supporting the application and an ordinance prohibiting potable use of groundwater in the MSD (potable water is water used for irrigating crops intended for human consumption, drinking, showering, bathing or cooking purposes). In January 2005, the City Council adopted an ordinance creating a procedure for persons applying to TCEQ for a MSD to get support of that application from the City Council. The procedure includes filing an application with the City, Staff review of the application for potential impacts to City interests, a public meeting held for the purpose of providing information on the application to the affected community and a public hearing. The site is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 4, Mapsco 64N and 64P. This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Director of Finance certifies that this action will have no material effect on City funds.

MRH CITY COUNCIL MEMORANDUM FROM: The Office of the City DATE: August 22, 2016 Manager SUBJECT: Setting August 22, 2016 and September 12, 2016 as the dates for the Tax Rate Public Hearings and Vote on Placing the Tax Rate Adoption on the Agenda of the September 26, 2016 City Council Meeting. PRESENTER: Mark Mills, Director of Budget and Research SUMMARY: Council is requested to set the dates for the public hearings on the proposed tax rate of 61 cents per $100 of taxable valuation as August 22, 2016 and September 12, 2016. The City Council is also requested to vote to place the adoption of the tax rate as an action item on the September 26, 2016 Council agenda. GENERAL DESCRIPTION: In follow up to the FY 2016/2017 Budget Work Session, it is necessary to begin the process 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 61¢ per $100 of taxable valuation was proposed. This is the same as the currently adopted tax rate of 610. Per Section 26.05(d) 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 proposed tax rate exceeds the effective tax rate of 58.3909¢ but remains below the rollback rate of 61.0009¢. As a result, the city of North Richland Hills will be required to conduct two public hearings on the tax rate. The proposed dates for these public hearings are Monday, August 22, 2016 and Monday, September 12, 2016, each to be held at the City of North Richland Hills City Hall. 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 Monday, September 26, 2016. This vote would appear as an action item on the agenda for the regular City Council meeting. RECOMMENDATION: Vote to set Monday, August 22, 2016 and Monday, September 12, 2016 as the dates for public hearings on the proposed 61 cents per $100 of taxable valuation and to place MRH the adoption of the tax rate as an action item on the Monday, September 26, 2016 City Council agenda. MRH CITY COUNCIL MEMORANDUM FROM: The Office of the City Manager DATE: August 8, 2016 SUBJECT: Consider Resolution No. 2016-024, appointing members to Civil Service Commission, Keep NRH Beautiful Commission, Library Board, Park and Recreation Board, Park and Recreation Facilities Development Corporation, Teen Court Advisory Board and Zoning Board of Adjustment. PRESENTER: Alicia Richardson, City Secretary SUMMARY: Each year, the City Council appoints members of the public to serve on various boards, commissions, and committees (the "Boards"). Appointed members serve a two-year term, unless appointed to fulfill an unexpired term. These annual appointments coincide with City Council terms—Places 1, 3, 5, and 7 are appointed in odd-numbered years and Places 2, 4, 6, and Mayoral appointments in even-numbered years. Each member serves until their successor has been duly appointed and qualified. GENERAL DESCRIPTION: In preparation for the annual appointments, staff provides City Council with resource material to assist with the appointment process. In preparation for the July 2016 appointments, Council was provided a copy of the current membership for each Board, attendance report, and current applications on file with the City. In accordance with City Charter, State Law and City Ordinances, Council members nominate a member of the public to serve in the corresponding place on the Board. The submitted nominations are subject to majority approval of City Council. On July 25, City Council took action (Resolution No. 2016-022) on most of their annual appointments. A copy of the resolution is attached for your review. Council approved nominees (existing board members) that met the requirement of attending 75% of the board meetings. The Council agreed that members not meeting the requirement would be contacted by the Council member who appointed them to determine the reason for absenteeism. The nominees submitted by City Council will be presented at the meeting. Staff was directed to place an item on a subsequent meeting to discuss remaining appointments, which are listed below.
