Staff Contact: Courtney Cross, Community Services D. Denton County Eviction Prevention Update—There has been a slight decrease in the amount of funds approved for eviction prevention assistance in recent weeks, likely due in part to the Memorial Day holiday. UWDC staff have reported an increase in the number of households receiving assistance who have returned to work at reduced hours and pay compared to their wages pre-Covid. UWDC staff also continue to share upskilling and job search resources (linked) with households who have accessed the fund through the recently launched Denton County Works program. Data sharing has been initiated with the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs (TDHCA)to compare addresses that have received assistance and prevent duplication of services.

The presentation and AIS highlight how the original scope of each committee has changed over time, and the opportunity a merger brings to streamline processes, improve communication, and increase responsiveness to community needs, especially in urgent and emergency situations. Additionally, the merger provides an opportunity to engage committee members in the development and implementation of a year- round, strategic vision of a community-wide coordinated response to identify community needs and facilitate a more informed and comprehensive allocation process. Staff have requested feedback from committee members via an online survey and will present the results and request further direction from Council on June 22. Staff Contact: Courtney Cross, Community Services K. Denton Back to School Fair — Denton ISD found a successful template to meet the supply needs of their students during the pandemic last school year, and as businesses and non-profit organizations are still recovering, the decision was made to repeat last year's efforts for the Back-to-School supply drive this year. Denton ISD aims to provide 4,500 students with supplies this year and distribute them to students and families through the school counselors, which also enables counselors to be able to connect further with their families. United Way of Denton County is still assisting with funding opportunities to support the purchase of supplies and are currently reaching out to previous donors. The plan is to reconvene the Fair aspect of the event for the following 2022-23 school year when time and resources allow. Staff contact: Sarah Kuechler, City Manager's Office L. Utility Assistance Funding Update—On April 12,2021 Customer Service began direct referrals to United Way of Denton County (UWDC) for residents who are experiencing COVID related income loss and do not own their home. This has reduced the current number of aid requests to Interfaith Ministries. However, assistance requests to Interfaith Ministries during the pandemic continue to be greater than previous years. Recent month and year qualification statistics are provided below: Families Assisted by Families Assisted Oct- May Month 350 327 290 40000 300 30000 250 20000 200 178 150 10000 100 0 50 0 -21 Seriesl ■Series2 ■Series3 In the December 17, 2020 meeting, City Council increased Interfaith Ministries FY2020-21 funding by$125,000. Currently, 33%of the fiscal year remains with 53% of this year's funds available for the remainder of the year. To ensure utilization of 5 available funding during this period of increased customer needs Customer Service issued direction to Interfaith Ministries to allow customers who meet assistance qualifications to receive assistance with up to three months of bills between January 1, 2021 and September 30, 2021. Fund balances will continue to be monitored closely. 2020-21 Fund Health 411 $59,792 ■ Remaining Budget ■ Available Funds ■Administered Funds $126,208 $83,235 Any customer who contacts Customer Service indicating need for assistance is submitted as a referral to UWDC or Interfaith Ministries as appropriate and is granted an agreement to ensure service continuation while they are working through the application process.Any resident who is experiencing financial hardship and difficulty paying utility bills should contact Customer Service at 940-349-8700. Staff appreciates the opportunity to serve our customers are here to help as much as possible. We appreciate the Council's help in communicating our availability to customers who express concerns to them. Staff Contact: Christa Foster, Customer Service M. Improvement of Electric Service Restoration — Customer Service and Denton Municipal Electric(DME)are proud to announce a significant improvement of service to our customers. In November 2020, Customer Service and DME began a collaborative effort to enable Customer Service staff to assist with completion of reconnection orders after service disconnection for non-payment.Effective June 2021, when a customer is disconnected, then provides sufficient payment for reconnection, Customer Service will have the ability to facilitate a restoration of that service remotely. With the ability of Customer Service to provide this service alongside DME staff, residents can be restored more efficiently and in less time. On occasion, communication with the meter may be disrupted preventing remote reconnection and a field technician will need to be dispatched to facilitate the reconnection. However, implementation of the new process can reduce the delay between reconnection payment and restoration of service for most customers to as little as 30 minutes. A primary focus for Customer Service is to prevent customers from experiencing disruption of services and appreciate the opportunity to serve our customers. Staff encourages any resident who is experiencing financial hardship and difficulty paying utility bills to contact Customer Service at 940-349-8700 to allow us the opportunity to help protect service continuity. We appreciate the Council's help in communicating our availability to customers who express concerns to them. Staff Contact: Christa Foster, Customer Service 6 N. Flag olicy Follow-up and Next Steps—At its June 15,2021 meeting,the City Council discussed and gave staff direction to develop a policy and options regarding the flying of non-governmental flags on City property. During the Council discussion, there were some inquiries and interest in a policy that could set parameters and criteria that may allow the public to request to fly a non-governmental flag and, if certain criteria are met, if those requests could be approved administratively for the eligible flag to fly for a specified period of time. There were also inquiries and discussion concerning a separate flag pole or flag flying apparatus could be set-up and used on City property, but remain distinct from the flag poles that currently fly governmental flags. The next steps are for staff to perform additional research, contact cities with similar policies, and develop a policy proposal and options for Council to discuss and consider at an available work session date later this summer. This discussion will include any legal or other considerations that may be involved with the equitable implementation of a proposed policy. Staff contact: Sarah Kuechler, Chief of Staff O. Update on City Issued Email Addresses for Boards & Commission Members—In the June 11 Friday Report, staff provided information relating to the planned creation of email addresses for certain board, commission, and/or committees. Staff has further evaluated this project and determined it will, over a period of time,provide City email addresses for all board, commission, and committee members. By assigning a City email to all members, staff hopes that transparency, public access to members, and records retention will be enhanced. Staff anticipates implementing this project over time to ensure proper communication to members and liaisons regarding the new communication method and to ensure members are advised to the City's policy of the use of email. As membership changes to the boards, commissions, and committees, email accounts will be closed, and new ones issued. Staff contact: Rosa Rios, City Secretary's Office P. City Hall West Renovation—In April 2021, staff presented an update on the City Hall West Renovation project and solicited direction from City Council.

Staff has been coordinating with our project's consultant, Peak Program Value (PPV), to assist in developing draft documents to be reviewed by our Legal, Planning, and City Manager's Office. It is anticipated that the RFI and RFQ documents will be internally approved in the next 3-4 weeks, at which time staff will coordinate with Purchasing to advertise. The responses for selecting an adequate historical building architectural firm and the evaluation of potential for-profit and non-profit levels of interest will be brought to City Council for discussion and direction.

Two officers serve on HOT, and four civilian clinicians and four officers comprise CIRT. Three CIRT pairs have been responding to calls and conducting follow-ups since the program launched last month, garnering positive 9 feedback from those they serve. A fourth team will be in service later this summer. Local mental health stakeholders, including Denton County MHMR and Mental Health Court, served on the CIRT hiring panel. Clinicians' salaries are based on their previous experience and education.Police officers receive a stipend that is in line with specialty pay for other assignments such as investigators, SWAT, and negotiators — in the current Meet and Confer contract for being assigned to a specialty unit and for being on-call. Staff contact: Frank Dixon, Police B. North Texas Boulevard Bicycle Lanes—On Tuesday,June 15 Council Member Davis inquired about the addition of bicycle lanes to North Texas Boulevard. Capital Projects/Engineering staff are currently reviewing multiple options to address bicycle lane access on North Texas Boulevard between Hickory and Eagle. This section of roadway is classified as a four-lane secondary arterial. Options for bicycle facilities on a secondary arterial include a mixed-use path, a dedicated bicycle lane, or a combination of both. The current budget and scope of the North Texas Boulevard Project (that is part of the 2020 Streets Bundle Sector II Project) does not include bicycle facilities. City Council approved the construction p project for the 2020 Streets Bundle Sector II Project on Tuesday, June 8 with Jagoe-Public. Staff is currently reviewing options and will work with the new Senior Planner — Bicycle, Pedestrian and ADA Coordinator when they join the organization in July to identify the best approach given traffic counts and the specific design of the roadway. Bicycle facilities on North Texas Boulevard can be added as either a change order to the existing 2020 Streets Bundle Sector II contract with Jagoe-Public or as a separate capital project. Once the preferred approach to install the bicycle facilities has been identified, additional information will be provided in a future Friday Report. Staff contacts: Dustin Draper and Rachel Wood, Capital Projects C. Interstate 35 and US 380 Interchange Safety Enhancements Clarification — On June 16, a resident reached out to Mayor Hudspeth regarding safety enhancements to the I-35 ramp to US 380. On June 16, the City's transportation consultant informed the Mobility Committee that Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is set to initiate construction on interim improvements in July 2021 and those will be completed by January 2022. TxDOT has identified the need for a substantial long- term solution to safely accommodate the increased traffic volume. This long-term solution will be part of the I-35 Widening Project, which is anticipated to be under construction between mid-2022 and early calendar year 2023. The proposed interim safety solution is to switch the existing entry and exit ramps, depicted below. The current layout has an entrance ramp north of Oak St. This entrance ramp will be reconstructed to serve as the exit ramp to allow drivers to exit the highway with an ample distance to the intersection with Highway 380. Additionally, the current exit ramp to Highway 380 will be reconstructed to be an entrance ramp, meaning drivers will longer be able to exit from this location. Together, these improvements eliminate the safety concerns with the current exit ramp's close proximity to the intersection with Highway 380.

A-Train Crossing at Shady Oaks Drive—On June 14, Council Member Byrd requested the City consider implementing a quiet zone at the A-Train crossing at Shady Oaks Drive. The A-Train is a Denton County Transportation Authority (DCTA) asset, and DCTA staff have confirmed that all DCTA crossings in Denton are Quiet Zone compliant, including Shady Oaks. Train engineers should not sound train horns unless alerting pedestrians or bicyclists of their presence, and train horns should not sound past 10:00 p.m. unless maintenance is being performed on the rail line. Work is underway to create additional railroad Quiet Zones along the Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) tracks through Downtown. The intent of this project is to install specific signalization and infrastructure at the UPRR grade crossings located at McKinney Street, Hickory Street, Sycamore Street, and Prairie Street to effectuate a railroad quiet zone. Staff is coordinating work for the downtown crossings with the Downtown Storm Sewer Phase 1 Project. The City's required improvements to activate the quiet zones are scheduled to be completed by the end of calendar year 2021. Once the City's portion is complete, UPRR will initiate internal processes required to establish a Quiet Zone and eliminate the train horn requirement. The map below shows the division of the existing DCTA A-Train crossings (yellow in the below map) which have the required signalization and lane channelization improvements required to create a Quiet Zone. The proposed UPRR Quiet Zone crossings (orange in the attached map) are being coordinated with the railroad and ongoing construction projects and will enact a new Quiet Zone corridor once work is complete.

Cit�ide Speed Reduction Reduction—On June 11, Council Member Davis requested to have a work session on including a citywide speed reduction as part of the Mobility Plan update and to be consistent with the City's Vision Zero goals. A citywide speed study project entails review of existing speed limits and conducting engineering studies to maintain existing or recommend new speed limits along arterial and collector streets throughout the City. Staff secured the funding for a study,but efforts were put on hold in 2020 due to altered traffic patterns caused by pandemic-related remote work and travel restrictions. Options for a citywide speed study were presented to the Traffic Safety Commission and City Council during September and October of 2020. Currently, speed studies conducted on an as-requested basis. As traffic patterns begin to normalize, staff plans to reinitiate efforts as part of the comprehensive strategy to finalize the update to the Mobility Plan. Staff will report results to the Mobility Committee, Traffic Safety Commission along with providing information to City Council via work sessions and the Friday Report. Potential results of the study could result in revisions to recommended speed limits for certain classifications of roadways in the community. Staff contact: Chandrakanth Muruganandham, Engineering F. DICTA GoZoneDCTA GoZone Updates — During the June 16, 2021 Mobility Committee Meeting, the attached presentation was delivered by Brandi Bird, with Bird Advocacy & Consulting (the City's transit consulting firm), to provide objective historical context 12 including ridership and financial data for the Denton County Transportation Authority (DCTA). The Mobility Committee also discussed GoZone on-demand rideshare service delivery plans with staff from DCTA at their June 16 meeting. The Mobility Committee expressed a desire for the City Council to adopt a resolution outlining their stance and preferred implementation strategy for on-demand and fixed route transit services in Denton. The DCTA Board will receive a work session presentation on the GoZone service delivery model at their June 24 meeting and, barring any significant feedback from the committee, will then vote to adopt the service delivery model on July 22. The Mobility Committee has agreed to a special-called meeting on Tuesday, June 29 from 1:00 p.m.to 3:00 p.m.to draft a proposed resolution that the City Council will then consider for adoption at the July 20 City Council meeting. Following the June 29 Mobility Committee Meeting, the draft resolution will be included in the Friday Report for City Council review. Staff has invited Bird Advocacy&Consulting and DCTA staff to be available to answer questions and participate in the June 29 Mobility Committee Meeting. Staff will continue to provide updates via the Friday Report as additional information regarding planned revisions to DCTA's service delivery model are made available.

North Lakes Park Wildflower Trail Flooding — On June 14, Council Member Davis forwarded a resident's concern over the flooding at North Lakes Park in the Wildflower Trail area. The Wildflower Trail is within the floodplain on the north side of a drainage retention pond. Water from US77 and Riney Road is directed south through the Wildflower Trail area and collected in the pond. In the early 1970s, the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Services designed and built this area of North Lakes Park to help mitigate flooding in Denton. The Parks and Recreation Department originally constructed the trails in the early 1990s and expanded them in 2011. PARD staff created the trails by simply cutting in pathways and installing decomposed granite without detailed engineering. Therefore, there was no drainage plan completed to account for how the flow of water would impact the trails. In addition, construction has occurred over the year that may also be affecting the amount of water targeting the property. Denton has received over 14 inches of rain during the last six weeks, with May and early June being one of the wettest times of the year.PARD maintenance staff is aware of the issue and has ordered over 200 tons of crushed granite and rock material to repair the Wildflower Trails. The repairs are expected to be complete by late summer, weather dependent. Staff contact: Drew Huffman, Parks and Recreation H. Parkway Children's Memorial Bench—On May 21, Council Member Beck requested Parks and Recreation staff to reach out to a neighborhood resident that helped raise funding for the Parkway Children's Memorial Bench in front of the Chamber of Commerce building and its possible relocation. Following the discussion with the resident, staff agreed to relocate the bench within the vicinity of the Emily Fowler Library in Quakertown Park. The bench will be relocated with the next few weeks, weather pending. Gary Packan, Parks and Recreation 13 I. Ryan Ranch Estates Roadway Condition Update — On June 14, Council Member Maguire requested an update on the pavement restoration efforts following wastewater infrastructure upgrades in the Ryan Ranch Estates neighborhood. The utility replacement project was completed by internal staff at the end of April, and due to contractor availability, it was determined that the Street Department will be performing the majority of the pavement restoration. The Street Department is working to repair the trench lines and will follow with a mill and overlay. Crews began work on trench repairs this week. Staff anticipates the trench repairs will be completed by the end of the month, after which a contractor will perform the mill and overlay. The restoration is expected to take 3 weeks, weather dependent. Staff contact: Daniel Kremer, Public Works J. Planning and Zoning Bootcamps — On June 10, Council Member Maguire requested the previous Planning and Zoning Bootcamp presentations that have been delivered to members of the Planning and Zoning commission. The bootcamp presentations from 2019-2021 are attached. Moving forward, Development Services has devised a plan to update past presentations and expand the series over the next few months to cover additional critical topics. Those presentations will be shared with City Council in the Friday Report following the presentation to the Planning and Zoning commission. Staff contact: Hayley Zagurski, Development Services Bootcamp Presentations: 2019 New DDC/Processes Overview— September 18, 2019 Comprehensive Planning - October 2, 2019 2020 Platting—July 8, 2020 14 2021 Comp Plan Update and Small Area Plans—April 21, 2021 Variances and Nonconformities—April 21, 2021 Downtown Parking—May 19, 2021 K. DCTA Follow Up Items from June 15 —Representatives from DCTA and the City's consultant, Bird Advocacy and Consulting, presented information to City Council during a work session. Council Members requested follow up information regarding ridership and subsequent questions for DCTA. The presentations given by Ms. Brandi Bird are attached and the requested follow up information is below. 1. Average number of riders per day on Connect service in FY20: 1199 2. Average number of riders per day VIA is projecting in Year 1: 1724 • I have taken the midpoint of the projected ridership which is 627,500 and done a simple calculation dividing that by 7 days a week. That is not a fair calculation because I'm certain their Sunday ridership is much lower than the rest of the days of the week,but it gives you some idea. 3. 2022 Projected annual revenues from bus fares: .5% of total budget, or $53,003 Council Members also had the following questions for DCTA: 1. Will the integrated fare payment system address hourly ridership data on the bus system? 2. Are the buses going to be sold, and if so how many? What are the ages of the bus fleet? 3. How are the VIA ridership projections done? Does the 785,000 assume 6 people per vehicle? 4. What is the average number of riders VIA is projecting per trip? 5. Are there any ramifications to making the fares free on the bus system? Ms. Bird will help facilitate providing answers to these questions and will forward upon receipt. Staff contact: Sara Hensley, City Manager's Office L. University and Nottingham Intersection Construction - On June 7, Council Member Beck forwarded a resident inquiry asking staff to clarify the scope and projected timeline of construction at the intersection of University Drive and Nottingham Drive. Current construction at this intersection is part of the 2019 Intersection Improvements Project which will provide traffic signal and intersection upgrades at McKinney and Woodrow, Loop 288 and McKinney, Loop 288 and Sherman, Hercules and Locust, and Nottingham Drive and University Drive. The construction timeline for improvements at the intersection of University and Nottingham was set to begin May 24 but was delayed due to weather. Weather permitting, construction at the University/Nottingham intersection is scheduled to be complete by July 30,2021. The 2019 Intersection Improvement Project currently has an estimated completion date of August 19, 2021 to complete all project intersections. On June 8, staff contacted the resident who submitted their initial inquiry to Council Member Beck to discuss the project scope and answer questions. Additionally, there have been several public engagement efforts to ensure residents in the immediate vicinity of the intersection are notified about the project construction schedule. A virtual community meeting was held on April 8 the provide project-specific details. 15 Video from the April 8 community meeting can be found online here: https://dentontx.new.swagit.com/videos/118652. Prior to the community meeting, a notification letter was sent to 2,447 residents and property owners in the affected area (see attached). Door hanger notifications were placed on the doors of 386 properties located within a 1,500-foot radius of the University/Nottingham intersection prior to the initiation of construction. Staff also provides regular project updates online at https://www.cityofdenton.com/en-us/2019intersectionimprovements. Staff contact: Dustin Draper, Capital Projects M. Ector Street Corridor Issue — On June 7, Council Member Davis requested that staff assess the speed and auto accidents on Ector Street and noted that residents have requested traffic calming measures. Council Member Davis asked if staff could install plastic traffic bollards/delineators at each intersection to address residents' traffic safety concerns. Ector Street is a two-way street with bike lanes from US 380 to Scripture Street. Staff coordinated with the Police Department for enforcement and traffic calming measures (please see the following update from the Denton Police Department on speed display deployment). "Both message board/speed trailers were deployed on Loop 288 for DISD graduations. When we retrieved them,we discovered a battery issue that is currently being worked on at Fleet Services. I'm hoping to be able to pick the sign up early next week and can try to find a suitable location to park them on Ector Street. There have been 11 crashes in the last 10 years on Ector St." Additionally, staff will perfom a speed study along Ector Street. There are several scheduled speed studies across the City, and staff anticipates the equipment will be available to conduct the study in approximately six weeks. When data collection is complete, staff will provide a follow-up report in a subsequent Friday Report. Staff contact: Becky Diviney, Engineering N. Quakertown Park Electrical Pedestals — On June 11, Council Member Armintor requested information about the electrical pedestals located in Quakertown Park. The Parks and Recreation Department will replace and restructure the electrical panels throughout Quakertown park. This effort will visually refresh the park by reducing the number of vertical structures scattered throughout the grounds by six units, ensuring user safety with proper wiring, updated equipment, and removing obsolete hardware that is no longer considered safe by the NEC. Work began on Wednesday, June 9, to prep wiring and conduit for installing the new pedestals with an anticipated completion date of late July 2021. Upon the project completion, the park will have 32 individual USB outlets for charging personal devices and will be capable of supporting events at the same level before changes. All efforts will be made to ensure that power interruptions through the park be minimal, with little to no loss of electricity throughout the project.

A plat is a map of a subdivision, addition, or development to be recorded with the County Clerk after approval by the City. The intent is to define lot boundaries in accordance with the governing zoning district, dedicate right-of-way, ensure adequate public facilities, and facilitate the orderly growth of the City. Platting processes are outlined in DEC Section 2.6 and design standards are in DEC Subchapter 8. 94 cy As Why plat? 1. To regulate subdivision development and implement planning policies; PPP"-- 2. To implement plans for orderly growth and development within the city's boundaries and ETJ; 3. To ensure adequate provision for streets, alleys, parks and other facilities indispensable to the community; 4. To protect future purchasers from inadequate police and fire protection; 5. To insure sanitary conditions and other governmental services; 6. To require compliance with certain standards as a condition precedent to plat approval; and, 7. To provide a land registration system. Lacy v Hod 633 S.W.2d 605 (TexCiv.App. Houston [14t'Dist.] 1982, writ ref n.r.e.) M' 95 PLKTING FUNDAMENTALS Generally: • The subdivision enabling le islation: Chapter 212.002 ofthe Texas Local Government Code, "to promote the health, safety, morals or general welfare of the municipality and the safe, orderly and healthful development of the municipality" Plats ensure that a development will have adequate infrastructure (streets, public utilities) and result in a buildable lot. • Typical subdivision ordinance: generally includes definitions; platting process and the content required for plat submittal; requirements for public rights-of-way, easements, and public nprovements, including design standards; and provisions for financial assurance that the improvements will be completed if the plat is allowed to be filed before completion. • Cities usually require a plat to obtain a building permit, as platting is the necessary step to ensure a development can be served. (2019 DDC Section 8.2.413) "A Guide to Urban Planning in Texas Communities 2013," Chapter 3. American Planning Association, Texas Chapter. 96 PLKTING FUNDAMENTALS Types of plats : • Preliminary Plat. Preliminary plats are not specifically required by the Local Government Code; however, they are used as a tool in the process to work out details and get preliminary approval prior to final plat approval. Preliminary Plats are required for all Final Plats within the City of Denton. They are permitted but not required in the ETJ. • Final Plat. Used where right of way and easements are being dedicated with multiple lots being created. Appropriate for more complicated subdivisions of land and usually involve approval of a preliminary plat to work out details before the more expensive engineering plans and final plat are created. • Mnor Plat. (Administratively approved)Aplat for four or fewer lots fronting on an existing street and not requiring the creation of any new street or the extension ofmunicipal facilities. Staff doe s not have the authority to disapprove a plat. "A Guide to Urban Planning in Texas Communities 2013," Chapter 3. American Planning Association, Texas Chapter. PLKTING FUNDAMENTALS Types of plats : • &plat. Achange in a map of an approved or recorded subdivision plat. Residential replats (if the subdivision was, during the preceding five years, subject to zoning or deed restrictions for residential uses for not more than two residential units per lot) require public notification. • Development Plat. Adocument to monitor the development ofproperty as it occurs, including amendments for future additions and buildings. Adevelopment plat depicts existing and proposed buildings, easements, public improvements, and rights-of-way to be dedicated. It is not required to be filed at the county, but may instead be filed with the city. "A Guide to Urban Planning in Texas Communities 2013," Chapter 3. � American Planning Association, Texas Chapter. PLUTING FUNDAMENTALS Standards for approval: • TT-CG 212.010: The municipal authority responsible for approving plats must approve a plat if. • It conforms to the general plan and current + future streets, alleys, parks, playgrounds, +public utility facilities • It conforms to the general plan for the extension of the municipality and roads, streets, and public highways, taking into account access to and extension of sewer and water mains • Any other rules adopted by a municipality after a public hearing: city's subdivision ordinance • If all state statutes and city ordinances and requirements are met, the city has no discretion and is obligated to approve the plat.

ZBA decisions are final and appeals related to these decisions must be made to a district court of law within 10 days after the decision is filed. • ZBA hears requests for: Variances from the DDC and the sign code (Code of Ordinances Chapter 33), Relief from gas well setbacks/reverse setbacks, Appeals of administrative decisions, and - Requests related to re-establishing, changing, and terminating nonconformities Approvals require 75% concurrence of the Board members. Typically meet once per month More information: TLGC Chapter 211 ; DDC Section 2.3.3; Charter Article X 133 �4✓ what is avariances, A deviation from the specific terms of this DDC that will not be contrary to public interest and is justified because, owing to special conditions, a literal enforcement of this DDC's provisions will result in practical difficulties and/or hardship. A variance is applicable only when there is a unique physical characteristic of a property that prevents it from being developed or used in the same manner allowed for other similar parcels. A variance may not be used to: Allow a use in a district where it is not currently permitted, Alleviate inconveniences generated by DDC requirements, or Alleviate financial burdens generated by DDC requirements. Generally, all other means of relief should be sought before a variance is requested — Alternative designs Minor modifications (10% flexibility in setbacks, lot area, building coverage, fence height, etc.) Rezoning may even be appropriate in some cases 135 Approvalof V • ZBA must find that all Criteria for Approval are met: `y Special circumstances or conditions apply to the parcel for which the variance is sought, which circumstances or conditions are peculiar to such parcel and do not apply generally to other :Ly parcels in the same district or neighborhood and that said circumstances or conditions are such that the strict application of the provisions of this DDC would deprive the applicant of the reasonable use of such parcel; The granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other property or improvements in the district or neighborhood in which the parcel is located; The variance granted is the minimum variance that will accomplish this purpose; The literal enforcement and strict application of the provisions of this DDC will result in an unnecessary hardship inconsistent with the general provisions and intent of this DDC and that in granting such variance the spirit of the DDC will be preserved and substantial justice done; The granting of a variance is not solely for the purpose of mitigating a financial hardship; and The condition or feature that creates the need for the variance did not result from the owner's actions. 136 EAST HICKORY STREET ASPHALT HO'R.O.W.PER PLAT Variances - Example �2?5 00, (25.00 S SIM r .ar -� SIR SIR T • Platted in 1920s.

' Ex. Driveway separation, roadway standards, subdivision standards Process is still described in the Transportation Criteria Manual Currently this process is not separate from the ZBA hardship variance in the DDC, but re- introducing this process will be discussed with the DCRC.

Goal: promote and preserve the integrity of the City's current zoning and development standards. 1 .5.21 provides an exception for single-family, duplex, and townhome dwellings that were legally existing prior to adoption of the 2019 DDC. Use, structure, lot, and site features are lawful and NOT nonconforming. 141 Nenconformilies (DOC SEC. 1.51 • General regulations: A nonconformity can continue to be used and occupied with limitations. Minor maintenance and repairs are permitted, but the degree of nonconformity cannot be increased any action. Examples: Physical repair of damage/deterioration or repairs to meet building code standards, restriping parking, replacing landscaping. If a nonconforming use or structure is discontinued for 1 year or more, all nonconforming rights cease, and the use or occupancy cannot be continued. The entire site must come into compliance with the DDC at that point. Council may initiate proceedings to amortize a nonconforming use or structure. ZBA responsible for setting a plan for compensation and establishing a termination date. 142 Nonconformilies [DDC SEC. 1.51 Many types of nonconformities are defined in the DDC: Nonconforming Use: Any use of land established legally at the time of passage or amendment of this -:Ly DDC that does not conform, after the passage or amendment of this DDC, with the regulations of the district in which it is located. Nonconforming uses may not be expanded into additional structures on a property. The use may be changed to another nonconforming use if the new use is no more intensive and would lessen the impacts of the nonconformity. The use cannot subsequently be converted back to a more nonconforming use. Nonconforming Structure: Any structure established or constructed legally at the time of passage or amendment of this DDC which does not conform, after the passage or amendment of this DDC, with the regulations of the district in which it is located. If damage by natural causes is done to less than 50% of the floor area, the structure may be rebuilt to its original ` condition. If damage by natural causes is done to over 50% of the floor area or if the structure is voluntarily demolished, the structure may not be rebuilt. 143 OR �.

Nonconformilies [DDC SEC. 1.51 Many types of nonconformities are defined in the DDC: Nonconforming Lot: A lot that was legally established before the effective date of this DDC or subsequent amendment thereof, but that does not comply with the dimensional standards that apply in the zoning district in which the lot is located. Structures located on nonconforming lots are considered nonconforming structures. Nonconforming lots may be built upon if all other zoning and dimensional standards are met. Nonconforming Site Feature: Any site feature established or constructed legally at the time of passage or amendment of this DDC which does not conform, after the passage or amendment of this DDC, with the regulations of the district in which it is located. Examples: parking, driveways, building coverage, landscaping & screening Can continue until such time as the site is required to comply with the current DDC (due to expansions or additions, for example) 144 Eliminating [BBC SEC. 1.51 Nonconformity can cease or be amortized Nonconformity can be modified to come into compliance with the DDC and become legally conforming. Property can be rezoned to a district that permits the use or has different standards, or a PD can be sought to establish unique standards. Ex.

This on-street parking causes crowded conditions that are unsafe to pedestrians and drivers, and difficult to navigate for public safety (Fire Department) and other large, city service equipment such as Solid Waste and Streets vehicles.Residents recently reached out to the City because people parking on their street have damaged or moved their solid waste and recycling carts from the front of their residences causing Solid Waste to miss their collection. The adopted fire code requires clear widths on streets. Roads under 20-feet in width are prohibited and the code sections below address roads 20-to 32-feet in width. For roads over 32-feet in width, there are no requirements. • 2012 International Fire Code D103.6.1 Roads 20 to 26 feet in width. Fire lane signs as specified in Section D103.6 shall be posted on both sides of fire apparatus access roads that are 20 to 26 feet wide. • 2012 International Fire Code D103.6.2 Roads more than 26 feet in width. Fire lane signs as specified in Section D103.6 shall be posted on one side of fire apparatus access roads more than 26 feet wide and less than 32 feet wide. To better define areas with university parking impacts, staff noted that residential neighborhoods as outlined below primarily experience these issues. The City developed several potential solutions that can serve as a framework for consideration when presented with resident concerns about on-street parking. 180 Date: June 18,2021 Report No. 2021-037 - x 3 n 8 9 McKenna Park �I sews � GreenHous e Mr.Chopsticks© eN A , WOAS, - 'woatca Denton Square °* QVoertman's a WHlaMSt _ De..r University Union Q miwo wc,,,neA a A •• UNT Coliseurn r ss ('The Super Pit')© 4 o IDOF Cem ry y M_i eA d — University of II' North Texas yea a n uikTrip Y ; R cnnlnA v x m Mr91es N a Stadium© _ / 4 Gateway At Denton Q /I Victor,Hall i ne uro otore r r,7 ]t0 3 Guinn Hall @ TWU o TW}1 Soccer Fiel i - Texas Woman's University Fitness and... lagg-Huey Library 0 tl 0 Parliament Vill e i Texas $ "°an°s Woman's WU Student Union qO University at Hubbard Hall 3rd S E 3.d si - MCL-TexasO crov.st TWU rmy G.,S� "Woman's University R I � v,d St o GWI.ge St �Nuby Pediaoics ASSC Anne Stuart Pinies Science Complex �o 2 i - SGrtnitz Ave v �C m Soho Salon - li to re.�sst - T—sr QThe Warel Training F �s Ituiian�. st City of Der Extra Space StorageQ Fleet Sery I Barbc�ue =4u�itertown-----� - I 41'mwasr- Park P iw yst HouselW TT E Conyers st c� to 181 Date: June 18, 2021 Report No. 2021-037 DISCUSSION: As presented in the map below, the residential streets in the area are primarily less than 28' wide, which makes the driving area very narrow when vehicles are parked curbside along both sides of the street.

The City formed an internal team to discuss the parking issues, and develop potential solutions that address the resident and any operational or access concerns. Three options are presented below. Costs to implment these solutions may vary due to length of street segment, number of driveways, etc.: 1. Provide enhanced "No Parking" and other markings along the curb a. Description: The City provides curb paint to notify people parking along the street of limitations near driveways, mailboxes, and fire hydrants. The markings along 182 Date: June 18,2021 Report No. 2021-037 the entrances to driveways would extend far enough to allow for proper spacing of Solid Waste and Recycling Carts. b. Concern: People parking along the street may disregard the curb paint. c. Cost Considerations: This is the most-costly option due to on-going maintenance of paint 2. Install"No Parking" zones on one side of the street a. Description: One side of the street is closed for on-street parking, allowing for a wider roadway for vehicles, including public safety and Solid Waste, to travel on the road. Staff recommends forming a criterion for determining which side of the street would be designated no parking, such as the side with the fire hydrants or most number of driveways. These no parking designations would be adopted by ordinance and could include certain days and times when on-street parking is not allowed. b. Concern: Some residents may be concerned that they are no longer able to park in front of their own home (if their side is designated no parking), or may be upset that people are allowed to continue to park in front of their home, but not on the other side. c. Cost Considerations: Initially, there would be a cost for the pole, no parking sign, and installation. However, following that initial cost,there is minimal maintenance costs. 3. Residential Permit Parking a. Description: The City would issue a defined number of parking permits per household for on-street parking. Additionally, staff would install signs and poles to notify the public of the restrictions.No other on-street parking would be allowed in the area. b. Concern: Identifying a system and department for permit distribution to ensure that it is being applied and enforced equally. c. Cost Considerations: Initially, there would be a cost for the pole, permit parking sign, and installation. There would be ongoing cost for printing and distributing parking permits. Additionally, this option would be difficult to enforce at the current staffing levels using existing Public Safety Officers. If the parking permit option were to be considered, staff would need to determine additional costs associated with enforcement staff. CONCLUSION: Staff recommends partnering with both Universities to perform a parking assessment study that would help assess the current situation and help identify potential solutions. Staff estimates that a study of this nature would cost$50,000-$75,000 and would include (but is not limited to): • Determine on campus parking capacity, 183 Date: June 18,2021 Report No. 2021-037 • Determine utilization rate of current parking capacity, • Identifying potential roadblocks or concerns that the campus community may have that causes them to not utilize on-campus opportunities, • Other issues that may help to find a solution that is beneficial to the concerned residents, the universities, and the City. Staff would then discuss these and other potential solutions with the City Council to received direction on a set of options for neighborhoods who request a solution to on-street parking in their neighborhood.

PARD will upgrade the site to include improved ADA access and general design aspects supporting the viewing, public access, and park beautification supporting the Denton Women's Interracial Fellowship Monument. Industrial Street Park, 108 Industrial St., is a .11-acre community park and was approved for the sculpture by City Council on December 7, 2020. At that time, Staff noted that the park would need some renovation to improve park access and accommodate the sculpture installation. These park improvements will be in two phases. Phase 1 of the project is already funded and will include constructing and installing the artwork with full accessibility to the public. This phase should cost$100,000,with$80,000 allocated to the artwork and $20,000 estimated for the foundation and miscellaneous site improvements. Phase 2 is reliant on additional funding. Currently, the 915 Land Dedication Fund has some funding that could be allocated to this park improvement. This phase will consist of lighting, grading, irrigation, and additional site work. The final cost for this phase is yet to be determined, but PARD staff is working to finalize anticipated costs and secure additional funding. PARD staff held meetings to review the art location and park changes with members of the adjacent townhouse homeowner's association, Main Street Association, past members of the Denton Women's Interracial Fellowship, in a virtual public meeting held on May 20, 2021, and the Parks, Recreation, and Beautification Board on June 7, 2021. PARD also solicited input from the Committee on Persons with Disabilities via an ISR on June 11, with responses due June 18. The Industrial Street Park updates will incorporate feedback from the above sources. The artist, Dina Fisher, served as an active member of the park design team to assure that all park improvements complemented the artwork. DISCUSSION: The park currently has one ADA-compliant wheelchair ramp at the west side of the park, which staff will rework to allow access to the sculpture on all sides. There will be two additional ADA- compliant ramps constructed at the east side of the park at the sidewalk on Industrial Street. Sidewalks will be built from the ramps across the park to the sculpture location. Synthetic turf will replace the current lawn area at the center of the park. The existing turf is too fragile to handle a large number of park visitors during community events. The synthetic turf will have a sand base and heat-reducing infill that will make it more comfortable for park visitors,but 185 Date: June 18, 2021 Report No. 2021-038 it will also be firm enough for wheelchair use. Several trees will be removed, and two oak trees will be relocated in the park. Staff will add redbuds behind the monument viewing area, two additional shade trees, hedges at the north and south park borders, and other decorative plantings. To better highlight the new artwork and provide additional security, staff will add general lighting in the park. A layout of the park showing both completed phases is attached in Exhibit 1. CONCLUSION: Members of the City Council are invited to review the attached plan and to provide input to PARD staff.
