cash handling regulations policy.

Consensus of council was to proceed with implementing the new policy.
4. The Council received a report, held a discussion, and gave staff direction regarding a
telecommuting policy.
Carla Romine, Director of Human Resources, presented an overview of the policy. She stated
that a pilot program was started in May 1999 and ended in September 1999. She stated there
was a growing need for City staff to implement alternative ways to retain exemplary employees
as well as devise effective ways to deliver quality service. Other anticipated benefits for the
employer would be: enhanced employee recruitment and retention; improved employee work
performance/productivity; reduced turnover and absenteeism; increased morale; reduced office
expenses; and potentially eased accommodation of disabilities. Benefits for the employee would
be: improved job satisfaction; greater flexibility to establish a work environment; job retention
for the mobility-limited and physically impaired; greater flexibility to choose own hours;
eliminated commuting aggravation; and potential money savings.
Council Member Cochran asked what classes of jobs would work with this policy. He asked
how many city employees would fit into this category.
Romine stated they did not have a count on which jobs could be considered for telecommuting.
She stated that it would ultimately be up to the department director and specifications would be

limited usage policy.
Consensus of the council was to proceed with implementing the new policy.

ordinance: the collection day would be moved to the first Thursday of each month; up to eight
City of Denton City Council Agenda
January 25, 2000
Page 3
bulky items could be placed for collection; established fees for collection of non-compliant bulky
items or trash around dumpsters; established fees for unlawful placement of bulky items on curb
or next to dumpster unless within 48 hours of scheduled monthly collection; dumpsters should be
moved off curb where feasible.
Consensus of the Council was to proceed with revising the ordinance with suggested changes.
6. The Council received a report, held a discussion, and gave staff direction regarding the
rationale and policy options available for implementation of a rental property licensing and
inspection program.
Crreg Mitchell, Building Official, stated that the Comprehensive Plan contained a recommendation
calling for the development of a program for periodic inspection and enforcement of city codes with
respect to apartment structures. He stated that presently there was no requirement for maintenance
on multi-family housing.
Consensus of the council was to hold some neighborhood meetings and find out what the citizens
wanted.
7. The Council received a report, held a discussion, and gave staff direction regarding the City
of Denton Small Area Plan Annual Report.
Dedra Ragland, Small Area Planning Manager, highlighted some of the goals that had been
achieved. Staff determined that it would be necessary to provide the citizens with a Small Area
Planning Orientation pamphlet. This would assist and guide neighborhoods interested in having a
small area plan prepared for their area.
Council directed staff to continue with the Small Area Planning Program.
8. The Council received a report, held a discussion, and gave staff direction regarding the
draft interim residential and nonresidential development standards ordinance.
Dave Hill, Assistant City Manager for Development Services, stated there were two new draft
versions of the ordinances. Hill reviewed the highlights of the changes. The applicability
section was revised. The May 1st, 1997 date was deleted from the draft ordinance, only one date
would be used. A "Design Plan" requirement was added for residential developments considered
to be partially exempt. A partial exemption referred to applications approved or received prior to
the effective date of the interim ordinance that showed single-family lot layout or multi-family
building size or footprints.
Ed Snyder, Assistant City Attorney, stated that the amendments were text amendments to the
City's existing codes. He stated the exemption section was revised to provide for the following
exemptions: a residential development application that qualified as a minor plat and did not
exceed 5 acres in size; an application for approval of a conveyance plat; a non-residential portion
of a Planned Development that was affected by the ordinance; a residential development within
an agricultural zoning district; a residential development application that either was approved or
that was accepted for filing prior to the effective date the ordinance that showed either the lot
layout for single-family dwellings or the size of or building footprint for a multi-family dwelling,

January 25, 2000

or any subsequent application for that residential development, provided that such application
was subsequently approved and further provided that the requirements for submission of a design
plan should apply to all subsequent applications.
Hill stated the Residential Interim Regulations would go before the Planning and Zoning
Commission on January 26th for their recommendation. It would come before the Council on
February 1St for action.
He stated the Nonresidential Interim Regulations would be presented to the Planning and Zoning
Commission in a work session on January 26th. A joint Planning and Zoning/City Council public
hearing would be held on February 8th. It would go before the Planning and Zoning Commission
on February 9th for their recommendation and come before the Council on February 15th for
action.
Council made recommendations for revisions to the draft ordinances.
Direction from council was to continue with the schedule presented.
9. The Council received a report, held a discussion and gave staff direction regarding a
planned development sunsetting ordinance, which sets time limits on all steps and processes in
planned development districts.
Herb Prouty, City Attorney, stated that the ordinance was based on the concept that the various
stages of the PDs - concept plan, development plan, and detailed plan - all be subjected to time
limits.
Terry Morgan stated that the Council might want to determine whether the PD time limit
ordinance was necessary if the Council adopted interim development regulations, or whether
some aspects of the PD time limit ordinance should be considered as a part of the interim
development regulations.
Hill stated that the establishment of time limits on various steps of the PD process with
requirements of notice and a grace period would involve more staff time to consider some of the
PDs involved in the process.
Consensus of the Council was for staff to bring this item back to the Council on February 8.
Following the completion of the Work Session, the Council convened into a Special Called
Session to consider the following:

ITEM #8
REVIEW AND CONSIDER APPROVAL OF PROHIBITION OF
PARKING ON DUCHESS DRIVE:
Cheek asked if this was a new street. Clark said it is not that old.
Clark said a new apartment complex on the south side of McKinney Street made
this request. Duchess Street is a short street. There is a portion that was built in
the mid 1980's that goes along this strip shopping center. The majority of it goes
all the way down here to the apartment complex.
The request is from the managers of the apartment complex. A guardrail sticks
out at an angle. People park on both sides of the street blocking emergency
vehicles.
There has already been no parking stenciled on the roadway. Apartment
complexes like this should have adequate parking on site. Staff recommends that
both sides of the road be no parking at least until the jog in the street is taken out.
It will not be completely safe, but will be a big enhancement toward safer travel
by the public.
Walters asked if it stopped there or went on. Clark said it stops right here. TSC
does have the option to just take parking off as requested.
Smith said the complex does have adequate on-site parking. Clark said yes.
Walters said the recommendation is all the way from the comer of McKinney to
the apartments. Clark said that is correct. This shopping center built half-a-road
like this. The apartments came in and built half-a-road. There is a barricade here,
so what is happening people park near the driveways and it is congested.
Removing parking makes it much safer.
Walters asked if the extension was where traffic goes both ways or would it be a
single lane one-way? Clark said the transition is marked with buttons to the
barricade. Obviously, that needs some work. The barricade needs to turn at an
angle for a safer transition. There are buttons guiding people. Walters said the
lane is wide enough for two cars. Clark said yes, with no parking.
King asked if that road is used to get into the apartment complex. Why is it not a
full road? Clark said the offices are right here and it has not been a problem.
King said as others build, they need to comply. Clark said this property has
adequate parking without parking on the street.
Walters asked if anyone was present to speak for the request.

Traffic Safety Commission Minutes
November 1, 1999
Shannon Cagle, Assistant Manager of Pebble Brook Apartments, came forward to
address the Commission. She said they don't know why the road was designed
this way, but understands why the strip center built a partial road The barricade
that is in the back juts out. Not everybody drives the speed limit. They have
stenciled no parking on their side of the road, and are hoping the other side of the
road could be no parking too because of the congestion.
Cheek asked where the majority of the people lived - by the street side. Is that
why they want to park in the street? Cagle said they have two buildings (15 & 16)
parallel to each other. People who live in apartments that face the street want to
park on the street. She understands that, but it is dangerous for everyone. Them
is parking adjacent to the building on their property and by the office along
McKinney Street.
Walters asked if there was a security gate or fence. Cagle said no, there is a
sidewalk fight by their door. There is the building and then a 10 feet gradual
slope to the street. It is not fight on the street. McKinney Street is fenced, but
along Dutchess, it is not.
Walters asked if anyone wanted to speak against the request. No one came
forward. Walters asked if there was any further discussion, if not is them a
motion?
STAFF RECOMMENDED:
Approval
COMMISSIONERS: Lesko made a motion to approve no parking on both sides of

Re: Parking on Duchess Dr.
Jerry Clark
Traffic Safety Commissioner
Dear Mr. Clark,
This letter is submitted in request for a 'no parking-fire lane' designation on Duchess Dr.
Coming off ofE. McKinney St. on to Duchess Dr. there are three lanes, then it narrows
into two lanes and back to three lanes wher,', it dead-ends at a barrier. There is also a
barrier at the point where Duchess Dr. narrows into two lanes. There are no lane
designations painted on the roadway, giving motorists guidelines to follow.
Cars are being parked on Duchess Dr., which could be a hazard for any emergency
vehicles responding to Pebble Brook Apartments. Cars are being parked at the barriers
and in the grass on the west side of Duchess Dr. on city property.
We are requesting that signs be put in place on Duchess Dr. stating 'NO PARKING',
where the road narrows into two lanes and also along the east side of Duchess Dr.,
adjacent to Buildings 15 and 16 of Pebble Brook Apts.
I have enclosed pictures showing the problems that exist.
Please respond back to me on this request.
Respectfully,

BACKGROUND:
Richard Shoffit and Dr. Sara DeHart made the request. They are concerned with the safety of
children and pedestrians who go to and from Ginnings Elementary School. Hercules was built as
a future thoroughfare and the cross section is 4 lanes divided with 2 - 24' lanes on each side. It
is adequate for this type request.

Traffic Safety Commission Minutes
November 1, 1999
ITEM #7 REVIEW AND CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A PEDESTRIAN/BIKE
LANE ON HERCULES LANE FROM STUART ROAD TO REDSTONE
ROAD:
Clark indicated on the map that Hercules is a major road that runs east and west
from Stuart Road to Redstone Road this section was built as a four-lane roadway.
This request is from Richard Shoffit. His letter is included in the backup from the
Denton Academy of Martial Arts. Girmings Elementary is in this vicinity too and
supports this request.
Many years ago Girmings Elementary was adequate, but it is now pushing the
limits. Children's safety is an issue. One of the major needs is to provide safety
to get kids home.
Along Stuart Road, on the west side from Hercules down to Sherman Drive, is a
dual direction hike and bike lane. Mostly walkers use it. One of the things staff is
trying to do with this is move toward a solution that allows both hikers and bikers
to use it. Mr. Shoffit will address these issues.
The main thrust is to encourage children from neighborhoods to use these safer
parts on their way to and from school. Some training will have to occur
encouraging the children to use the lanes.
The traffic lanes are 24 feet wide. Staffis recommending making the outside
bike/hike lane westbound 4 feet wide. The travel lanes could be 10 feet with an
outside bike lane until the street is widened and they are widened to 11 feet. Staff
is working to get funds to landscape the area to encourage usage.
Walters asked if there is already a bike lane on Stuart. Clark said yes, it is on the
west side.
Smith said there are no sidewalks on Hercules. Clark said one unfortunate thing
is from 1950-1980 Denton quit building sidewalks. From the 1900's to 1950,
there were sidewalks on both sides of the street. In 1980, it started back with one
side and then two sides in 1988. That is why there are no sidewalks on Hercules.
Sidewalks are planned long term.
Smith asked what kind of signage would be at Sun Valley and Stuart Road. Will
they have traffic guards, flags, etc? Clark said probably not guards, but
crosswalks. Smith said that is something the City could do a lot of as far as
placing information in utility bills. Drivers do not understand designated
-2-

crosswalks. Education could really help. Clark said he would propose that to the
City Manager.
Clark said Denton is not pedestrian bicycle oriented. Traffic tends to ignore lanes
designated for walking and/or riding in the street. Smith said they do not pay
attention to yield signs, etc either.
Cheek said the Post Office uses the designated lanes too. Clark said he would talk
to them.
Walters asked if anyone would like to speak for the request.
Richard Shoffit came forward. He said he has owned the Denton Academy of
Martial Arts for 30 years. He submitted a proposal and recently followed up on it
about putting pedestrian lanes on both sides of the street. Mr. Ayers came out and
explained that city code places bicycle lanes next to sidewalks. He understands
that and proposes going beyond City codes and placing lanes on both sides of the
street. He sees people riding bicycles on both sides of the street. It could help
control traffic and people going to school. He also feels like the signage on
Hercules could be a new bright color scheme like the signs at UNT. It could be
clear that pedestrians go in one lane and that cars go in another.
Walters asked if anyone else wanted to speak for and/or against the request. No
one came forward. Walters closed the meeting to the public.
Cheek asked what the expense would be. Clark said painting and signage could
run between $500 to $1,000.
King said he is not familiar with locations of bike and walking trails. Where else
are they located? Clark said on Hinkle, Avenue C, and Forrestridge. King asked
how wide are they. Clark said most of them are 8 feet wide with two-way traffic.
Cheek said it takes education. There was a girl killed on Hinkle because a man
drove into the designated lane. She was walking.
King said if the lanes are 4 feet wide that is why the Post Office uses it. Clark
said that is one of the reasons it is more appropriate to separate the lanes.
Walters asked if there was a motion.

Mr. Clark:
It has come to my attention that there has been a request for a
pedestrian and bicycle lane to be made on Hercules Lane in Denton. I
would hope that your Commission would seriously consider this
request for child safety reasons. There is an elementary school within
a block of this location and it is surrounded by apartments and family
housing editions. This location is also near Loop 288 and automobiles
often travel the roads in this area at high rates of speed after leaving
the highway. Children walk in the streets due to lack of a sidewalk or
pedestrian lane.
I grew up a few blocks fi.om this location and nothing has been done to
improve this area since I was in elementary school. Child safety
should be of high priority to the City of Denton, and I hope you will
take this request seriously.
ctfully, ~

requirements of competitive bidding; providing an effective date (Purchase Order 02323 to
Layne-Texas in the amount of $25,630).
BID INFORMATION:
Purchase Order 02323 was issued to Layne-Texas as the lowest bidder for routine maintenance
of a Layne Vertical Turbine 24GM-4 stage raw water pump at the Lake Lewisville. The order
amount was $7,900 and included pulling the pump, shop labor to disassembl%clean inspect,
reassemble and prepare inspection report. After disassembly it was discovered that extensive
corrosion had damaged parts other than normal wear rings and bearings. The additional repairs
totaled $17,730. Due to the critical need for all four of our raw water pumps this summer, time
was not available for the bid process to take place. Two other pumps are experiencing
questionable performance and are under close observation. Repair of Raw Water Pump #2 was
declared an emergency and work was authorized to proceed. Emergency purchases effecting
public health and or safety are exempt from the bid process.

SUBJECT:
An Ordinance providing for the expenditure of funds for emergency purchase of materials,
supplies or services in accordance with prOvision of State Law exempting such purchases from
requirements of competitive bidding; providing an effective date (Purchase Order 03622 to Darr
Equipment Co. in the amount of $27,498.75).
PURCHASE ORDER INFORMATION:
The rear differential on the 1992 Caterpillar model 816B Compactor used at the Landfill in the
refuse cover operation failed. This caused' the transmission housing to crack requiring
replacement. An in-frame engine overhaul was scheduled before summer in anticipation of
heavy, use under adverse conditions. This unit is critical to the Landfill operation and no backup
equipment is currently available. Daily refuse compaction and cover is critical to public health
and TNRCC permit compliance. Repairs to this unit were declared an emergency and a purchase
order was issued authorizing repairs to proceed. The critical need to remm this unit to service did
not permit time for the formal bid process.
RECOMMENDATION:
We recommend Purchase Order 03622 to Darr Equipment Co. be approved in the amount of
$27,498.75.
PRINICPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS:

SUBJECT:
An Ordinance providing for the expenditure of funds for an emergency purchase of material,
supplies and service in accordance with provisions of State Law exempting such purchases from
requirements of competitive bidding; and providing an effective date (Purchase Order 03944 to
The Andrew Joseph Co., Inc. in the amount of $27,022).
BID INFORMATION:
After North Central Texas College moved out of leased space at City Hall East the Renovation
process was begun. One of the first projects was proper abatement of asbestos. Prospective
contractors were "walked through" the area and they submitted price proposals. The lowest
estimate was The Andrew Joseph Co., Inc. in the amount of $14,800. A purchase order was
issued and work was started. As the abatement work was being performed under the direction of
State officials it was discovered that there were two layers of floor tile and that the A/C duct was
wrapped inside as well as outside. These unknown factors added $12,222 to the total project cost.
Since State officials were on site and since the work was being perfmmed in an occupied
building, City Hall East~the purchase order was revised to a total of $27,022 and work was
authorized to proceed. Emergency purchases effecting public health or safety are exempt from the
bid process.
RECOMMENDATION:
We recommend Purchase Order 03944 to The Andrew Joseph Co., Inc. be approved in the
amount of $27,022.
PRINICPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS:
The Andrew Joseph Co., Inc.

ESTIMATED SCHEDULE OF PROJECT:
Due to the potential for risk to the public this asbestos abatement project was completed without
interruption on March 10, 2000.
FISCAL INFORMATION:
The funding for the portion of City Hall East Renovation will be taken from Buildirlg
Renovation account (477-032-BLDG-0018-9101).

SUBJECT:
An Ordinance accepting competitive bids and awarding a contract for a second 12/20/25 MVA
Power Transfmmer; providing for the expenditure of funds therefor; and providing an effective
date for second award (Bid 2408 - Power Transformer awarded to Waukesha Electric System,
Division of General Signal Power Systems, in the amount of $427,459).
BID INFORMATION:
The addition of substation capacity is necessary due to our loading criteria. The Pockrus/Page
Substation operated at 38.43 MVA in the Summer of 1999, which is 77% of the rated capacity of
50 MVA. The addition of the Lakeview Ranch Development, The Preserve, the new Denton
Regional Hospital, Wynstone and Oakmont II Developments will increase loading on the
existing Pockrus/Page Road Substation to 62 MVA. This would be 12 MVA over the 55-degree
centigrade rise rating of the existing transformers or 120% of rated capacity. By expanding this
facility, DME will be able to adequately feed these large developments as well as provide for a
loop feed capability for all of the new subdivisions along the FM 2181 corridor. This additional
~apacity will provide assurance of reliable service to the Southridge, Forrestridge, and Montecito
areas.
The current overloaded conditions of the Pockrus/Page Substation feeders will be alleviated with
the planned expansion of the substation. Due to the seventy-two (72) week lead-time for the
construction and delivery of a Power Transformer quoted by most transfmmer manufacturers, it
has been decided that we will increase the quantity of our current order.
The Public Utilities Board approved Bid 2408 for the purchase of a 15/20/25 MVA Power
Transformer on October 4, 1999. The transformer currently on order was originally purchased
for the new South Substation. Due to the critical loading of the Pockrus/Page Substation, we plan
to install the first delivered transformer at Poekrus/Page in September/October of 2000. This
proposed purchase of a second transformer will actually be installed at the new South Substation
in the March/April of 2001.

additional Power Transformer without the
According to the bid specifications, we can
manufacturer by submitting an order for an
requirement of rebidding the project.
The Purchasing Department opened Bid 2408 on August 31, 1999. There are nine respondents
with five proposals. Council awarded the bid on November 2, 1999 (Ordinance No. 99-395),
contracts were signed on December 13, 1999.

PRIOR APPROVAL BOARDS/COMMISSIONS:
Public Utility Board approved the acquisition of a second Power Transformer on March 6, 2000.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the purchase of the second 15/20/25 MVA Power Transformer from
Waukesha Electric System. The Power Transfomxer offered by Waukesha meets specifications
and has the lowest evaluated price. Waukesha has offered a discount making the purchase price
$427,459. The discount is based upon reduced design cost for the second unit. The lower
offerings by Sunbelt and Temple had a higher evaluated operation cost (see attached evaluation
summary sheet) and the offering from Kuhlman took exceptions to the Performance Bond
Requirements.
PRINICPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS:
Waukesha Electric System, Division of General Signal Power Systems
Goldsboro, NC
ESTIMATED SCHEDULE OF PROJECT:
The second transformer is scheduled for delivery between March 15, 2001 and April 15, 2001.

SUBJECT:
An Ordinance accepting competitive bids and awarding as annual contract for the purchase of
materials, supplies or services; providing for the expenditure of funds therefor; and providing an
effective date (Bid 2479 - Wood Grinding for Compost Operation awarded to Thelin Recycling
Co., in the estimated amount of $93,000).
BID INFORMATION:
This bid is for an annual contract to supply wood grinding services for the Dyno-Dirt Compost
Operation. The contractor will move onsite as requested when approximately 20,000 cubic yard
of brush, yard waste and clean construction lumber has been accumulated. The wood products
are ground into small pieces and transported to the compost production area.
This project was initially bid in January. The original request for bids did not accurately reflect
the City's practice of accumulating 20,000 cubic yards per grinding activity, but instead listed
8,000 cubic yards accumulation per grinding activity. One of the bidders Austin Wood Recycling
qualified their original bid to the 20,000 cubic yard accumulation while none of the other bidders
did so. They were the low bidder, but since the bid was qualified they did not meet the original
specifications. Because of this problem the decision was made to reject alt bids and to re-
advertise. The City has the right to reject all bids. After re-advertising (Bid 2479) Austin Wood
Recycling was not the low bidder, they have lodged a written protest, a copy of which is
attached. The Legal Department has advised that the protest of Austin Wood Recycling has no
merit due to the City's absolute right to reject all bids.
RECOMMENDATION:
We recommend this bid be awarded to the lowest bidder, Thelin Recycling Co., in the amount of
$1.24 per cubic yard.
PRINICPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS:
Thelin Recylcing Co.
Ft. Worth, TX
ESTIMATED SCHEDULE OF PROJECT:
This is an annual contract for grinding services. We anticipate grinding four times per year as
material is accumulated.

RE: Official Letter of Pro!e_~t - Bid # 24S4
Dear Tom:
Austin Wood Recycling would like to submit a letter of Official Protest in reference to wood gdnding at the City
Landfill.
On or about 12/29/99, the City of Denton's Purchasing Department issued an invitation to bid. Austin Wood
Recycling submitted a response to that bid in a timely fashion following instruction as required. The bidders
instructions item ~ indicates any submitted article deviating from the specifications must be identified and
have full descriptive data accompanying same, or it will not be considered. Austin Wood Recycling followed
these instructions when it deviated from: The City will notify the successful bidders when approximately 8,000
cubic yards of matedal has accumulated. We changed the quantity to read: 20,000 cubic yards, a fact that was
presently taking place. Austin Wood Recycling bid $1.38 per cubic yard, and our next lowest competitive bid
was $1.70 per cubic yard. However, the City of Denton called that a major deviation and therefore called for a
re-bid.
On 1/28100, Austin Wood Recycling submitted a protest for the re-bid. On, or about, 2/3/00 Austin Wood
Recycling received the City of Denton's reply and the request was denied.
On, or about, ?J14/00, the City of Denton submitted bid invitation ~2479 with quantifies per site visit at 20,000
cubic yards. Now, our previous sealed bid or $1.38 per cubic yard vs. next bid of $1.70, was now public
information and available to all. Bids were issued and the previous bidder that submitted a bid of $1.70 per
cubic yard now issued a bid of $1.24 per cubic yard vs. our revised bid of $1.34 per cubic yard.
The original bid of $1.38 on the estimated gdnding quantity of 75,000 cubic yards, represents a contract in the
amount of $103,500.00 per year. To Austin Wood Recycling and the City of Denton, this is a substantial dollar
contract worth reviewing and worth reconsidering.
Our main points are this: Austin Wood Recycling followed instnJctions and initially stated our deviations in
writing to what was actually happening in previous years. Also, during the re-bid our competitors now had an
unfair advantage in the fact that they knew our previous bid price and could therefore use that information to
their advantage, winning the contract on the second bid.
Austin Wood Recycling request that we be awarded the contract at our original bid price of $1.38 per cubic
yard.
Please respond as soon as possible.

SUBJECT:
An Ordinance awarding a contract for the Lease of Desktop' PC's, Notebooks Software and
Peripherals as awarded by the State of Texas General Services Commission, Department of
Information Services (DIR); providing for the expenditure of funds therefor; and providing an
effective date (Purchase Order 03628 to Dell Financial Services in the amount of $157,233 per 6
months for a total amount of $943,398 including 36 months lease financing).
BID INFORMATION:
In May of 1997 the City entered into a lease agreement with IBM for PC's, Notebooks, Software
and Peripherals. The term was for 36 months with the understanding that at that time the PC's
etc. would be returned to the supplier and new updated equipment would be ordered. The first
Master Lease expires at the end of May 2000. The new proposed master lease is for a term of 36
months for 450 PC's, 50 notebooks, software and peripherals. Additional equipment will be
added as existing computers reach the end of the 36-month lease term and as additional
equipment is required. As additional PC's are added to this new lease, authorization will be
requested from Council by change order to the master lease agreement. Access to the proposed
master lease is through the State of Texas General Services Commission, Department of
Information Resources Cooperative Purchasing Agreement. The lease was negotiated, and the
purchase prices have been determined by the Department of Information Resources and meet all
requirements of the State Procurement Laws. Dell Financial Services (DFS) is the selected
supplier of desktop and notebook lease services for the State of Texas. Although DFS will lease
other manufactures equipment, a recent thorough evaluation of PC's and notebooks undertaken
by the City of Fort Worth determined Dell PC's and notebooks to be the superior products when
compared to other Tier Two units (Compaq, Gateway, Dell and IBM). The purchase price
offered by Dell Computers is less than current QISV catalogue prices.
This master lease agreement is entered into between Dell Financial Services and the State of
Texas acting by and through the Department of Infon~ation Resources (DIR) on behalf of state
agencies, as defined in Section 2054.003 and Local Governments as defined in section 791.003,
Government Code and meets all requirement of the State competitive bidding laws.
This purchase order is for the first of six semi annual lease payments for 450 Dell Pentium III
desktop PC's and 50 Dell Pentium III Notebooks with operating software and peripherals. Prices
and lease rates are from the State of Texas Department of Info~snation Resources contract
between the State of Texas and Dell Financial Services.

RECOMMENDATION:
We recommend purchase order 03628 to Dell Financial Services be approved in the amount of
$157,233 for the first of six semi annual payments and that the master lease be approved in the

budgets).
PRINICPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS:
Dell Marketing, L.P.
Round Rock, TX
ESTIMATED SCHEDULE OF PROJECT:
The 450 Desktop PC's and 50 Notebooks will be delivered the second week of April 2000.
FISCAL INFORMATION:
Purchase Order 03628 will be funded from 1999/2000 Operating budget account (770-044-0080-
8509). By funding this acquisition on a semi annual basis it will allow us to pay the lease at the
first and middle of each fiscal year.

SUBJECT:
An ordinance approving a real estate contract between the City of Denton and Evelyn Barthold,
ET. AL., relating to the purchase of approximately 1.7 acres of land at the northwest comer of
1-35 and Loop 288 in the B.B.B. & C.R.R. survey, abstract No. 141 for the construction ora
water storage facility; authorizing the expenditure of funds therefore; and providing an effective
date.
BACKGROUND:
City's northwest service area water distribution system currently does not have elevated storage
facilities. The northwest service area is currently served by the McKenna Park Booster Pump
Station (BPS) which uses variable speed pumps to continuously maintain adequate system
pressures under varying system water demands. Although elevated storage was not initially
required when the McKenna Park BPS facilities were first installed in 1986, growth in this area
over time has required the addition of elevated storage to insure reliable pressure maintenance,
adequate fire protection, and comply with TNRCC standards. The pressure maintenance in this
area is not considered reliable by TNRCC standards without elevated storage.
To locate elevated storage in this area, a site evaluation study was conducted by the consulting
firm Shimek, Jacobs, & Finklea, L.L.P. (SJF). Based on this site evaluation study, the proposed
site meets the hydraulic and site suitability requirements to locate the elevated storage tank.
Staff has worked with the property owners and Texas Department of Transportation to establish
the location of the tank on the property and access provisions. Appraisal of the property was
established and this information was presented to the PUB on September 20, 1999 to seek
authority to make an offer to the property owners to purchase approximately 2 acres of land.
Further negotiations with the property owners established a tank site of approximately 1.7 acres
of total land for a 250' x 250' pad for the tank and a 30-foot strip along Loop 288 for locating the
16-inch waterline to tie-in in the tank to the water distribution system (See Exhibit I). The final
acreage for the property was determined by a survey of the property. The property owners have
accepted the $1 per square foot offer made by the City. This resulted in a final purchase price of
$74,140 for the property.
The property owners have been very civic minded in understanding the need for treated water
availability in the surrounding area and have worked supportively with the staff in acquisition of
site for the tank. The property owners have signed the real estate contract prepared by the city's
right of way agent and legal staff(Exhibit II). Staff recommends approval of the purchase of the
property.
OPTIONS:
Purchase the property.
Negotiate an alternative site with another property owner.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Staff recommends approval of the purchase of this property for the elevated storage tank site.
PRIOR ACTION REVIEW (COUNCIL, BOARDS, COMMISSIONS)
September 20, 1999: The Public Utilities Board was briefed on the results of the elevated storage
tank siting study and the preliminary negotiations with the property owner indicating a

offer for purchase of property for the tank site.
January 24, 2000: Public Utilities Board was briefed on the results of the negotiations with the
property owner. The Board instructed the staff to proceed forward with the preparation of the
real estate contract and the submittal to the city council for final approval.
February 8, 2000: The City Council was briefed on the elevated storage tank siting study and the
pending negotiations with the property owners. The Council instructed staff to finalize the
contract to purchase the site.

complex task of site selection for an overhead storage tank. I have enjoyed working with
the Barthold family, they have been very amiable. It was admirable that they
acknowledged the public need for the water storage in balance with their long-term plans
for their tract.

SUBJECT: Consider approval of recommendations from the Oversight Committee.
BACKGROUND: On March 6th the Oversight Committee held its second meeting. At
that meeting they considered recommendations for miscellaneous streets, traffic signals
and beautification projects. There was unanimous consent from the members that were
present for the recommendations of staff as follows.
Miscellaneous Streets
McKinney Street from Bell Avenue to Jarmie, Avenue E from Avenue E/D to Oak,
Oakwood from Mercedes to Cul de Sac, Palmwood from Glenwood to Kayewood.
Miscellaneous Signals
The committee recommended coordinating the signals on Fort Worth Drive, Teasley
Lane from 1-35E north, and on Lillian Miller/Teasley Lane from 1-35E south, if funding
is available.
Beautification Projects
The committee recommended repair of the median on Carroll Blvd., signage at City Hall,
median repair and renovations to medians on Dallas Drive, and water conservation
landscape at Bell/Robertson.
These miscellaneous categories were all funded in the first year of the capital
improvements program.
RECOMMENDATIONS: The Oversight Committee and Staff recommended these
projects.
PRIOR ACTIONS: Citizens approved this funding in the January election.

Members of the Oversight Committee
Rick Svehla, Deputy City Manager
MARCH 6TM MEETING
I have attached a memo from Jerry along with several maps and also some information from Ed
for the main subjects of their meeting on the 6th. Jerry's memo talks about two miscellaneous
areas, streets and signals. We're recommending four streets to you, McKinney, Avenue E,
Palmwood and Oakwood. We've also attached a list that shows other streets that also rank very
high for replacement. Our selection was based on the condition of the street. We also try to fit
projects with the amount of money we have ($300,000), we try to affect all of the city and not
just one part to the exclusion of the rest of the city, finally we look at the amount of traffic that.
will benefit from the improvements.
The second area that Jerry deals with is signals. There are three maps attached to this
information. Our recommendation is to do the U.S.377 (Ft. Worth Dr.) system since all of those
signals are in place or will be built shortly and all of the street construction has just been
completed. We are also suggesting the system on Teasley Lane (FM 2181) from Londonderry
north all the way over to Woodrow. We do not know of any pending construction on any portion
of this road section and therefore, think this is an appropriate area to work on. Finally, if we
have funding left we would suggest beginning to tie the Loop 288/FM 2181 South system. We
would suggest starting at Southridge and Teasley and working south connecting the signals at
Southridge, Lillian Miller and proposed signals at Ryan Road and Hickory Creek.
Staff is also suggesting that we wait on the sidewalks fOr the bike and trail plan. We think it
w~uld be appropriate to be able to see final recommendations from that plan before suggesting
sidewalks. Also, it won't hurt to wait because sidewalk plans can be done fairly quickly.
I've also attached a memo from Ed. In the first year we also have $40.000 worth of
beautification money. Ed's memo recommends to you where we think that money should be
"Dedicated to Quality Service"

Memo to Oversight Committee

' spent. You can see that the staff has tried to choose high visibility areas and places where we
can do things that will be noticed by large numbers of people.
Finally we have one more item that is using some more of the Teasley planning money. Some of
you may know that in the last bond issue we engaged a consultant to do a very detailed traffic
study of Teasley Lane from 35E south to the city limits. The traffic analysis has been finished.
We presented those results to Council in February. We also recommended to Council that we
come back with more technical investigation and data in April. This will help to schedule
improvements on Teasley Lane (FM 2181). It will give us data to present to other partners
(TXDOT and the County) for the reconstruction and widening of the facility. You may recall
that we have $107,000 left from the original $250,000 (the first $143,000 is being used in a joint
project with the county that was discussed at the last meeting). Staff would propose that $7,000
of this planning money be used to help fund the continuing work of the consultant on the
technical aspects of the design, signal spacing and the actual lane requirements for this facility.
We would suggest using miscellaneous street money since the design money is in the second
year. Next year when we sell the design money, we will use $7,000 as miscellaneous paving.
At your last meeting you asked for us to deliver this a week in advance. This will allow us the
luxury of trying to answer any questions that you might have before the meeting. Please feel free
to give me, Jerry, Ed or Dave Hill a call at your convenience. You can reach us at 349-8307,
-8271. or 349-8314 respectively.

Re: Oversight Meeting on March 6m, 2000- Miscellaneous Streets, Signals, Walks,
and Bikeways
The three categories are proposed to include the following projects:
1. Miscellaneous Streets-- $300,000
Staff has enclosed a list of the streets from our recently completed street inventory
system-Pavement View. The list included $3,962,651.00. Several of the streets on
the list have projects that impact them in the immediate future so funding should be
delayed for those. They include James Street, Malone Street, and Coit Street. We
are recommending the following streets for your consideration. We still have to get
final clearance from Water and Sewer Utilities to be sure that no new lines have been
added to the list of strccts this year.
McKinney Street from Bell to Jannie- $128,092
Avenue E from Avenue E/D to Oak - $ 90,966
Palmwood from Glenwood to Kayewood $ 34,254
Oakwood from Mercedes to. Cul de Sac $ 65,945
Total $319,257
2. Miscellaneous Traffic Signals -- $200,000
The bond issue included $50,000 for our' contribution toward a CMAQ project that
interconnected three traffic signal systems. The City of Denton was still waiting to
hear if the projects received funding from the NCTCOG and TXDOT when the bonds
were prepared. We did not receive funding. The signal systems are on US 377, FM
2181, and Loop 288. We have enclosed drawing of those proposals. We are
proposing the we look at US 377 and FM 2181 first, since the heaviest growth has
been towards the south, there are to be many new signals in that area, and the fact
that Loop 288 will be tom up in less than two years so we have to be careful how we
spend the money. Hardwire systems will be torn out and replaced by TXDOT if
installed now. We are proposing the funds be allocated towards the US 377 and FM
2181 signal systems. Some of the signals in the Loop 288 system are actually on FM
2181 after the bend. We would propose that these be addressed first at intersections
~like Lillian Miller and Teasley, Ryan Road and Teasley, and Hickory Creek and
Teasley. Coordination will be critical for these lower end signals as the traffic from the
new developments .increases
3. Miscellaneous Sidewalks and Bikeways --$200,000
Staff is currently working with Carter and Burgess on a Master Plan for these
systems. The next meeting date with the consultant to review the plan is scheduled
for March 9,2000. We feel that the Master Plan should be used and should influence
how the money for these systems is spent for the new bond issue. Stair recommends
that we postpone this decision till your next meeting.

SUBJECT
Consider and take action on a request for relief from the Non-Residential Interim Regulations,
Ordinance No. 2000-069, for 2001 Forth Worth Drive, a proposal to plat 2.38 acres in a Light
Industrial (LI) zoning district. (RN-00-008)
BACKGROUND
Ordinance 2000-069, known as the Nonresidential Interim Regulations, was adopted by City Council
on March 2"a, 2000. This ordinance contains standards with which nonresidential development
projects must comply until the Code Rewrite project is completed and permanent standards are
adopted. Ordinance 2000-069 also contains a separate section that allows applicants to request relief
from the interim regulations, including evaluation criteria to be used by Council:
5. Relief requests
ao
bo
Co
The applicant may petition the City Council for relief from these interim development
regulations by requesting such relief in writing. The request for relief shall be considered by the
City Council in conjunction with action on the project plan and development application.
The City Council shall not relieve the applicant from the requirements of this ordinance, unless
the applicant first presents credible evidence from which the City Council can reasonably
conclude that the imposition of the nonresidential development standards deprives the applicant
ora vested property right or deprives the applicant of the economically viable use of his land.
In deciding whether to grant relief to the applicant, the City Council shall take into consideration
the following:
(1)
whether granting relief from the nonresidential standards contained in these interim
development regulations, in the absence of permanent revisions to the City's Land
Development Code that implement the provisions of the comprehensive plan
jeopardizes the City's best interests in preventing such effects;
(2)
the suitability of the proposed nonresidential uses in light of land uses allowed in the
zoning districts on property adjacent to the proposed site;
(3)
the impact of the proposed nonresidential use on the transportation and other public
facilities systems affected by the development;
(4)
the measures proposed to be taken by the applicant to prevent negative impacts of the
proposed use on the surrounding properties;
(5)
the likelihood that sufficient relief will be provided to the applicant following adoption
of the City's Development Code;
(6) the total expenditures made in connection with the proposed nonresidential
development in reliance on prior regulations, including the costs of installing
infrastructure to serve the project;
(7) any fees reasonably paid in connection with the proposed use; and
(8) any representations made by the City concerning the project and reasonably relied upon
to the detriment of the applicant.
d. The City Council may take the following actions:
(1) deny the relief request;
(2) grant the relief request; or
(3) grant the relief request subject to conditions consistent with the criteria set forth in this
section.
6. Minimum relief.
Any relief granted by the City Council shall be the minimum deviation from ordinance requirements
necessary to prevent deprivation ora vested property right.
OPTIONS
Council may either:
1. Deny the request for relief, or
2. Grant the request for relief, or
3. Grant the request for relief, subject to conditions consistent with the evaluation criteria set
forth in the ordinance (and referenced above).
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the decision of whether or not to grant the requests for relief should be based on
the merits of each individual application.
ESTIMATED PROJECT SCHEDULE
Review schedules are discussed in the attachments.
PRIOR ACTION/REVIEW
The Council, on March 2, 2000, reviewed one request for relief from Non-Residential Ordinance:
1. Kerestine property - approved with conditions.

Re: Application For Relief From Non-Residential Interim Ordinance
Dear Staff, Members of the Planning & Zoning Commission,
and Members of the City Council of the City of Denton:
Richard H. Kelsey and Ann E. Kelsey as Applicants have filed an INTERIM ORDINANCE
RELIEF APPLICATION FORM in regard to the 3.8 acres located at 2225 E. McKinneY Street,
Denton, Texas. Reference is here made to such application.
In accordance with the instructions of staff, we submit the following:
The City's best interests would be protected and preserved by approving this
zoning plan immediately. The property already has a specific character based
upon existing buildings. The existing character should be perpetuated in the
development of additional buildings.
The property is suitable for nonresidential use in light of the land use allowed (in
the zoning districts) on adjacent property. Specifically, there is a set of medium
density apartments immediately to the east and single family residences
immediately to the north and west, The 3.8 acres is not suitable for single family
residential development. The proposed planned development for office use is
completely compatible as a transition use between the apartments and the personal
residences.
The proposed nonresidential use will not have any negative impact on any public
facilities or systems.
Applicants say that the planned development is designed to have a 20 foot setback
from the adjoining property lines, a great deal of green area, and is further
designed to protect all of the major trees. It is essential that the Applicants be
granted permission to approve the zoning change from residential (SF7) to
Planning & Zoning Dept.
March 14, 2000
Page 2 of 2
o
commercial-office PD. The property is not suitable for single family residence
development. The highest and best use of the property is for low density
professional and executive type offices compatible with'the existing structUres.
Applicants have spent considerable amount of time, effort, and money in
fonntflating a development plan which preserves most of the existing quality trees,
provides for setback, and preserves both the sight line and the existence of the
prominent colonial style home which is a landmark in..Denton. It is anticipated
that by the time this matter is fully heard, Applicants will have approximately
$5,000.00 invested in the zoning process.
It is anticipated that Applicants will have paid approximately $5,000.00 in
reliance on the proposed use.
Representatives of the City's staff have requested that the footprint for the Planned
development leave the existing colonial house in place and preserve the sight line.
Such request has been incorporated into the planning.
Applicants request that the INTERIM ORDINANCE RELIEF APPLICATION be granted and
the applicable, ordinance be identified.

BACKGROUND
The above list represents projects that currently have Building Permit applications that are subject to
Ordinance 2000-069, known as the Nonresidential Interim Regulations, that was adopted by City
Council on March 2nd, 2000. These projects are subject to the regulations because building permits
were added to the definition of "Development Applications" while the ordinance was being drafted.
This change was made to allow property to be platted prior to receiving Project Plan approval and was
not intended to make building permits subject to the provisions of the ordinance.
This request is to rectify the issues on an immediate basis while an amendment to the ordinance is
being initiated. The proposed schedule for the amendment will be to place it on the Planning and
Zoning Commission meeting of April 12, 2000 and on the City Council's agenda of May 2, 2000. The
amendment is necessary as there are undoubtedly more developments that will need relief from this
existing provision that subjects building permits to the Interim Non-residential Ordinance.
The ordinance contains standards with which nonresidential development projects must comply until
the Code Rewrite project is completed and permanent standards are adopted, Ordinance 2000-069 also
contains a separate section that allows applicants to request relief from the interim regulations,
including evaluation criteria to be used by Council:

AN ORDINANCE APPROVING A REAL ESTATE CONTRACT BETWEEN THE CITY OF
DENTON AND MAYHILL ROAD REALTY CO., RELATING TO THE PURCHASE OF
0.9628 ACRE OF LAND LOCATED IN THE GIDEON WALKER SURVEY, ABSTRACT
NO. 1330, OF DENTON COUNTY, TEXAS, FOR THE UTILIZATION FOR ELECTRICAL
SUBSTATION EXPANSION AUTHORIZING THE EXPENDITURE OF FUNDS
THEREFOR; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
BACKGROUND:
The addition of substation capacity is necessary due to our loading criteria. The Pockrus/Page
substation operated at 38.43 MVA in the summer of 1999, which is 77% of the rated capacity of
50 MVA. The addition of the Lakeview Ranch Development, The Preserve, the new Denton
Regional Hospital, Wynstone and Oakmont II developments will increase loading on the existing
Pockrus/Page Road Substation to 62 MVA. This would be 12 MVA over the 55-degree
centigrade rise rating of the existing transformers or 120% of rated capacity. By expanding this
facility, DME will be able to adequately feed these large developments as well as provide for a
loop feed capability for all of the new subdivisions along the FM 2181 corridor. This additional
capacity will provide assurance of reliable service to the Southridge, Forrestridge, and Montecito
areas.
OPTIONS:
1. Purchase the land and expand the existing substation ensuring an adequate power supply for
the growing southeast area of Denton.
2. Denying the purchase would necessitate the acquisition of land and the construction of a
completely new substation thereby increasing the total cost dramatically due to the requirement
of tapping the 138 Kv transmission line. Should we be fortunate enough to purchase land
adjacent to the existing transmission line, the cost of necessary structures to tap the line would
amount to approximately $500,000 above the cost of land. Purchase of land remote to the
transmission line would require construction of transmission line at approximately $1,000,000
per mile.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Denton Municipal Electric recommends proceeding with purchase of the proposed land.
ESTIMATED SCHEDULE OF PROJECT:
Purchase upon approval by City Council.
PRIOR ACTIONfREVIEW
Public Utility Board directed DME to take this purchase to the City Council for approval.
SCAL FORM TION:
The current asking pric~ for the land is $2.62 / sq. t~.; this would s~m acceptable since we paid
$2.50 / sq. fL for the existing Pockrus/Page substation land in 1984. The price ogthe proposed
purchase of.9628 acres of land will be $109,666.62.

SUBJECT
An ordinance approving an agreement between the City of Denton, Texas and RPI providing for
the payment of the cost of condemnation for a fire lane and access easement in the R. Beaumont
Survey, Abstract No. 31; and providing an effective date.
BACKGROUND
The owner of Denton Center Shopping Center, Retail Plazas, Incorporated (RPI) has petitioned
the City of Denton to obtain the above referenced easement in order to allow for optimal access
at the pending signalized intersection of Sherman Drive and Carroll Boulevard. RPI is
anticipating an expansion of the existing Kroger grocery store, eastward, which in turn would
compel additional access to Carroll Boulevard for exiting delivery trucks and vehicles. Early on
RPI and Kroger approached City staff and requested an offset drive approach, just south of the
Sherman Drive projection, on RPI property. The Engineering & Transportation Department
would not support their drive approach scenario because of its close proximity to the Carroll
Boulevard / Sherman Drive intersection. It is not safe or prudent to allow an uncontrolled
driveway immediately adjacent to an intersection, controlled or otherwise. This intersection is
currently problematic in its alignment and signalization is slated within the next two years to
mitigate conflicts. Staff directed RPI to coordinate a joint access driveway with the adjacent
property owner that would line up with the Carroll Boulevard / Sherman Drive intersection.
City staff has encouraged RPI, Kroger and the North Texas State Fair Association (NTSFA) to
reach an equitable solution regarding access. It is our understanding that their neighbor
relationship has been strained, especially over the last few years, regarding a wide range of
issues relating to their respective operations. There has been positive dialogue at times regarding
the proposed access driveway. In October of 1999, RPI obtained an independent appraisal for
the proposed access tract (0.125 acre). The appraisal reported a market value of $21,836 or
$4.00/square foot. Correspondence between RPI/Kroger and NTSFA indicates an initial offer in
November of 1999 by RPI of $25,000 for the access easement plus RPI would bear all costs for
fence relocation and access driveway paving. RPI also committed to maintain the access
driveway paving. In addition, Kroger pledged that they would be a sponsor of NTSFA at $1,000
per year for a period often years. NTSFA countered RPI's offer by requesting $100,000 plus all
ancillary costs and liabilities to be borne by RPI / Kroger. NTSFA also countered to Kroger,
requesting corporate sponsorship of $10,000 per year for a period of ten years.
The respective parties are now at an impasse on price and terms. NTSFA are now in the process
of obtaining their own professional independent appraisal in order to further quantify the issue on
their behalf. That appraisal has only been recently commissioned and its status for completion is
not known. NTSFA may choose not to release their appraisal findings. RPI has asked staff to
move forward and petition the Council for assistance in obtaining the proposed access tract in
case negotiations come to a standstill.

WHEREAS, the condemnation of the Easement would be in the public interest and for a
public purpose; NOW, THEREFORE,
WITNESSETH:
This agreement made this __ day of ,2000, by and between RPI and
the City of Denton, Texas ("City"), in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises of each,
agree as follows:
I. Attorney's Services. The City Attomey, with the approval of RPI shall retain local
counsel to provide the legal services to institute and pursue proceedings in eminent domain to
acquire the Easement for access and fire lane purposes, said easement being more particularly in
Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated by reference. The City Attorney shall assist local
counsel in preparing all petitions, motions, notices, and other legal documents necessary to initiate
and prosecute condemnation proceedings.
II. Payment of Condemnation Costs by RPI. All filing fees and courts costs,
appraiser, expert witness and local counsel fees, condemnation awards, recording fees, or other cost
or fees resulting from the condemnation ( called "Costs") shall be paid by RPI.
IH. Payment of Acquisition Cost by RPI. RPI agrees that it will pay the award for the
condemnation made either by the Special Commissioners, or on appeal, by judgment of the court.
Should the condemnation case be non-suited or dismissed at any time prior to the entering of a
judgment in this matter, RPI agrees to pay any costs assessed by the court against City including,
but not limited to, attorney and expert witness fees of the condemnee.
IV. Appeal of Commissioner's Award. If, by reason of the amount of the awed
made, PPI is obligated to pay in satisfaction of the award any amount in excess of market value for
the Easement, then PPI may request, in writing within ten days of said award, that City appeal the
award made. Upon such request and the City's determination that the award was excessive, the
City may, in fulfillment of its sovereignty duties and obligations within its sole discretion, authorize
an appeal of the award. If, after RPI requests such appeal, City appeals the award made, RPI shall
pay all costs of such appeal. Upon final judgment of such appeal, RPIshall pay the judgment of the
appellant court.
V. Escrow of Funds. Before the City shall proceed with any proceedings, RPI
shall pay to the City $50,000.00 in escrow as security for the payment of the Costs (the "Escrow").
Should the Costs exceed the Escrow, PPI shall tender to the City the difference together with an
amount deemed reasonably necessary by the City to continue to prosecute the case, no later than 30
days after written notice from the City. A failure to supplement the Escrow within said 30 day
period may result in the City's termination of the case at PPI's sole expepse. PPI understands that
the Commissioners' Award together with other costs to that date could exceed the amount of the
Escrow. In such case PPI would have to pay to the City the difference, before the amount of the
Commissioners' Award could be deposited and possession of the Easement could be obtained,
pending final disposition of the case. If the Escrow exceeds the Costs, the City shall reimburse PPI
the difference no later than 60 days after entry of a final non-appealable judgment, date of
settlement with the condemnees, or date the condemnation is terminated or abandoned, whichever
occurs first. The City shall pay no interest on the Escrow. The City is permitted to draw money
out of the Escrow at any time for payment of the Costs, or any portion thereof.
VI. Hold Harmless. PPI agrees that the acquisition of the Easement provided for in
this agreement is for the sole purpose of allowing PPI, the public and neighboring property owners
to have access and fire lane improvements for the public purpose of promoting safe vehicular traffic
movement and economic development by better handling vehicular traffic from its property to and
from Carroll Blvd. PPI agrees to hold the City harmless from, and shall indemnify City for, any
claim, loss or damage arising or resulting fi'om any act of RPI, its agents, employees, contractors, or
representatives, in acquiring the Easement and constructing said improvements. PPI further agrees
that it shall not make any claim against City, or hold City liable, for any loss or damage suffered or
incurred by RPI as a result of any interruption or delay in condemning or acquiring any property
necessary for PPI to complete any required off-site access improvements resulting from any legal
challenge to the right of City to condemn the land specified in this agreement, or any other delay
which results from any cause not within the reasonable control of City.
VII. Entire A[~reement. This instrument contains thc entire asrecmcnt between thc
parties, and no statement, promise, or inducements made by any party or agent of any party that is
not contained in this written contract shall be valid or binding; and this agreement may not be

SUBJECT
An ordinance declaring a public necessity exists and finding that public welfare and convenience
requires the taking and acquiring of an approximate 0.125 acre fire lane and access easement
being located in the R. Beaumont Survey, Abstract No. 31 in the City of Denton, Denton County
Texas; authorizing the City Manager or his designee to make an offer to purchase the easement
for its fair market value and if such offer is refused, authorizing the City Attorney or his designee
to institute the necessary proceedings in condemnation in order to acquire the easement; and
providing an effective date.
BACKGROUND
The owner of Denton Center Shopping Center, Retail Plazas, Incorporated (RPI) has petitioned
the City of Denton to obtain the above referenced easement in order to allow for optimal access
at the pending signalized intersection of Sherman Drive and Carroll Boulevard. RPI is
anticipating an expansion of the existing Kroger grocery store, eastward, which in turn would
compel additional access to Carroll Boulevard for exiting delivery tracks and vehicles. Early on
RPI and Kroger approached City staff and requested an offset drive approach, just south of the
Sherman Drive projection, on RPI property. The Engineering & Transportation Department
would not support their drive approach scenario because of its close proximity to the Carroll
Boulevard / Sherman Drive intersection. It is not safe or prudent to allow an uncontrolled
driveway immediately adjacent to an intersection, controlled or otherwise. This intersection is
currently problematic in its alignment and signalization is slated within the next two years to
mitigate conflicts. Staff directed RPI to coordinate a joint access driveway with the adjacent
property owner that would line up with the Carroll Boulevard / Sherman Drive intersection.
City staff has encouraged RPI, Kroger and the North Texas State Fair Association (NTSFA) to
reach an equitable solution regarding access. It is our understanding that their neighbor
relationship has been strained, especially over the last few years, regarding a wide range of
issues relating to their respective operations. There has been positive dialogue at times regarding
the proposed access driveway. In October of 1999, RPI obtained an independent appraisal for
the proposed access tract (0.125 acre). The appraisal reported a market value of $21,836 or
$4.00/square foot. Correspondence between RPI/Kroger and NTSFA indicates an initial offer in
November of 1999 by RPI of $25,000 for the access easement plus RPI would bear all costs for
fence relocation and access driveway paving. RPI also committed to maintain the access
driveway paving. In addition, Kroger pledged that they would be a sponsor of NTSFA at $1,000
per year for a period often years. NTSFA countered RPI's offer by requesting $100,000 plus all
ancillary costs and liabilities to be borne by RPI / Kroger. NTSFA also countered to Kroger,
requesting corporate sponsorship of $10,000 per year for a period of ten years.
The respective parties are now at an impasse on price and terms. NTSFA are now in the process
of obtaining their own professional independent appraisal in order to further quantify the issue on
their behalf. That appraisal has only been recently commissioned and its status for completion is
not known. NTSFA may choose not to release their appraisal findings. RPI has asked staff to
move forward and petition the Council for assistance in obtaining the proposed access tract in
case negotiations come to a standstill.

Staff endorses the approval of the ordinance by the public necessity of promoting safe vehicular
travel.

Consider an ordinance authorizing the City Manager to sign an agreement partially
releasing an easement granted to the City from a blanket easement previously assigned to
the City of Denton from Brazos Electric Power Cooperative; and providing an effective
date.
BACKGROUND
Mr. Michael Neitzel has requested that the City of Denton release an easement that was
originally granted by J. F. Mason and wife to Brazos River Transmission Electric Cooperative,
Inc., dated 6/19/52, as recorded in Volume 381, Page 512 of the Deed Records of Denton
County, Texas, and being subsequently assigned to the City of Denton, filed 3/1/90, as recorded
in Volume 2736, Page 825 of the Real Property Records of Denton County, Texas, as it is a
blanket easement in nature and was intended to be relocated to affect only the portion of the
property that the transmission line traverses. However, the property was divided in half for
development and this blanket easement has created a cloud on the title which will be removed by
this release.
