Many raatdents have concerns about the lack of safety for their children and their neighbors due to this problem. Police enforcement F remains the most effective means of dealing with Speeding but their 1Lmited'% resources means that they cannot cover all the problem locations at all tiros. In response to this concern, the City has developed a Road Plump Program to { minimise speeding and encourage traffic safety. The Program provides an opportunity for residents to participate in a process that leads to the i Installation of road humps. Here are some AL99412M from the program. r i WHAT Is A ROAD HuMP2 h o It is na the typical bump you s*e in a shopping center parking lot.

OyiRR11L Road humps are an effective and appropriate device for safely reducing vehicle speeds on certain types of streets when installed in accordance with the provisions of this policy. ' in order for road hump installations to be effective, they should be located selectively in accordance with defined transportation engineering criteria for the purpose of ameliorating doeuwnted spesdlnq problems. Proper i installation will also minimise driver frustration and encourage safe driving practices. This policy promotes reasonable opportunities for residents and property owners most affected by a proposed road hump to participate together in the process that leads to its installation. It also provides for a sharing of the road hump installation Best between the City and the neighborhood under certain conditions. i 8.

A. once a street is placed on the list o! streets aoezoved for read h e lnetallstion, the City will submit a statement to the representative of the residents for the cost of the road hump installation. Upon receipt of payment of the cost, the humps will be installed as scheduling permits.

The street with the earliest application data will have the highest priority among streets with the same VANAtion value. The report will contain the above ranked list of struts , together with the speed, vehicles per day, ranking sum, w her the location is in CDEO area, estimated installation costs, City's cost share, residents' cost shays, application date, payment due date and cumulative City cost share. The report will additionally list all road bump requests subsequently denied by the Director of Inglneering and Transportation under provisions of Section 22 and 38, in addition to padding requests: A street that does not receive road hump installation funding approval will automatically be considered in the following yearn, for a maximum of 3.additional years. After that time period, a new request and petition are required.

Undesirable side effects caused by neighborhood traffic controls should be evaluated carefully when the alternatives are evaluated. These side effects may include: ■ Circuitous routes and longer travel paths. ■ Increased noise, air pollution, and fuel consumption resulting from more stops and starts. } ■ . ' Slowing of turns and lower speeds, 3 ■ Reduced emergency and service vehicle access or increased response time. i ■ Confusion of motorists who are unfamillar with the new layout or control devices of the changed street network. f ` Diversion of traffic to other residential streets where the 'traffic a nd its ~ Impacts are equally undesirable. ■ Adverse imparts to shopping or businesses which ire located within the area { i k THE PLAN j A comprehensive traffic control plan should be evaluated with concurrence that the desired results can be obtained. Many varying strategies can be contained in the total comprehensive traffic control plan. i r,' I I v r,~, ~gendal TOOLS FOR NEIGHBORHOOD TRAFFIC /0 Traffic control's purpose Is to regulate, wam, and guide vehicle operators and pedestrians in the interest of safe, efficient, and environmentally compatible movement of vewcIes acrd 1, pedestrians. Control may be achieved by three means: 1 laws and ordiaa eM 2) traffic control devices, and 3) geometric design features. In order to be effective, these traffic control features must be clearly understood by the driver and pedestrians. Tools: ■ Enforcemeat. Motorists tend to diiregard traffic control devices without proper enforcement. Increased enforcement ensures adequate compliance of the regulatory traffic control devices. • Hi $h Enforcement Area Signs. These signs are installed in coajunction with f enforcement where increase police presence is desired. Generally, compliance is increased with use of these signs. ■ Display Radar Trailer. This mobile device advises the motorist of the regulatory speed and informs him and everyone around of his speed. Generally, the motorist will slow to the proper speed upon receiving the information that he is speeding. This device also retrains the driver to adhere to the posted speed limits by reminding him gently. ■ Speed "t Signs. Serve as a reminder of the appropriate regulatory speed of a roadway. i ■ Stop Signs Assi~ned Right-of-Way at an Intersection. Generally, these signs only reduce speed for h0 feet on each side of the Intersection. a One-Wax Streets. This is a device to develop one-way couplets Ina corridor. It can be effective depending on whether there are close parallel roadways, ? a Chokers.

Their research is summarized as follows: Traffic speeds are decreased at the humps and at locations between properly spaced successive humps. Speeds of the fastest drivers are affected as well as those of i averraagge drivers. A si4e hump will only act as point speed control. To reduce i speeds along an extended section of street. a series of humps is usually needed. a Speed humps often divert traffic to other streets, especially is those situations where rom sig c~oeattamount of traffic I using the street as a shortcut, detour. or overflows collector or arterial roadways. a a Speed and volume modifications caused by humps tend to remain constant over time. I Speed hump; have not been found to pose a traffic safety hazard when properly designed and insiVed at appropriate locations. 8 if the humps are successful in reducing speeds, there is probably little net change in avoiding road noise or possibly even a reduction in noise levels. ■ Adequate signing and marking of each speed hump is essential to warn drivers of speed hump presence and guide their subsequent actions. ■ A need to slow for speed humps tends to have a negative impact on air quality and } energy consumption, assuming traffic volumes remain constant. ■ age trucks, buses, and emergency vehicles, must pass over humps at relatively low speeds or significant jolts to the vehicle occur. as well as discomfort and more injury to occupants, and jostling of cargo. a The majority of local street residents normally support speed hump installations and endorse their continued use. IM surveyed several locations in the United States and in other countries where speed humps were unsuccessful and ultimately were modified or removed. The factors resulting in the removal of the speed humps include the following diss d its e drResident amatieally slow ve Ides or reduce t uaffic volumes to a desiredrleviel.d inability to ai Local policy decision to favo; traffic circulation needs over residential quality of life concerns.

Residential streets are mainly intended to route traffto out to the major streets and will normally have pedestrian traffic of children, animals, and people walking etc. The ordinance strictly limits the speed humps to residential streets which staff strongly recommends being the basis for the erdinaace. Placing them on collector and arterial streets defeats the purpose of those ete"te, runding for sperl humps will likely be a major issue. Visa" read &Ut area carefully. The current policy of most cities is that neighborhoods will speed humps for areas not proven to be fairly swrere speeding problems. Those standards are enclosed in the ordinance, but are based on actual radar studies of the streets in question. Historically, neLlhbarboods in Denton have not raised money for the" type activities. Staff reoommsnds that to prevent F a complete explosion of speed sumps, that would directly impact our atreot r"AVL ►g program, that the commission p the ordinance. If neighborhoods an helping fund the insiteallation,~ they will be prudent and cost conscious in their decision, staff strongly recommends leaving the ordinance as enclosed. It not, staff rReommeads a maximum amount per year that the City spend on speed } humps which would licit the amount being installed. Staff strongly recommends thae speed humps be apgroved by TSC prl.or to installation and to that TSC limit those locations. The visual impact of the sign" will not be poeitivo.

The commission is not taking up individual requests for speed humps in Wghborhoods. i Clark said the commission reviewed the Northlakes teial site last time and that was considered to be a positive site. TOC asked that staff bring the actual ordinance back and look at the policy Itself. This I@ Dallas' policy. It's not something that was dreamed up. ' Dallas has probably 6 years of history on this and the program goes back close to 10 years. It was tried in Oregon and Washington. The real lssuss are the policy. Page one tells you saactly what it Is► how a street becomes eligible, who is responsible foe the costs and how to go about getting a speed hump installed. Page one E basically gives you descriptions. I The key thing to consider, for road humps to be affective, is they need to be located selectively In accordance with five engineering criteria for the purpose of eliminating documented speeding proble". Proper installation will also slaimise driver frustration and encourage safe driving practices. Sligibility under part C talks about a petition, where it's located, and the operational things that need to be considered (600 vehielen/day, less than 8,000). That's saylntii, If there is hardly any care on the street, then there is going to be fewer speeders. If :8C doesn't like those volumes, staff will need some reasoning to include that in. This Is saying that normal speed is 30 mph. Your J 86th percentile must exceed 30 mph. That's r community value iudgement. Almost everyone drives one to three males over the speed << im t. Modern ears actually Idle and run faster. This ordinance is geared toward residential streets only. Streets that are collector streets or arteTials should not be considered. If someone br'•ngo In a street that is a collector, that's not designed for a collectors that Oak- need.to be moved or redesigned. z t It talks about geometries. one of the key things is that it should J be paved and fairly r straight street. It you put those where nobody can see them (curves), you are going to have some liability. 1 •D• Is a section that staff wants the commission to look at. It's saying that at 36 mph or 1su the aped hump would be funded entirely by the neighborhood. There is an eecaption that will be covered later. If it's over 39 mpl~, the City would pay fw all of Its The money would come out of street maintenance and rroavirl fund if the City had to pay for it. There isn't a special fund allocated for it.

This is using the 1400 principles. It they have ownership and are "ling for it, they are going to really want things to happen.

A Couple Years ago, a couple of their neighbors identified speeding on residential street' as one of their major concerns.

IC SAYS, 'As yyou can see, the traffic activity to your area was 11ght. However, officers will continue to monitor the activity in your area'. There was a meeting held with the area on Hatch 6, 1994. Police officers were asked again if i there was any change in the traffic. They said no. They could not see any traffic problem. Holt said as far as the road humps, it has diverted traffic off Parkotde onto North Lakes. There Is only k one on Bowling Green between North Lakes and Georgetown. What she has noticed is that people on Parkside between the two road humps (bowling Green/Windsor and one six houses mouth), go down North Lakes avoiding the Mumps. If they ace in favor of the road humps, they should travel three streets. 4 Holt said she understands that the speed humps were I built like Dallas standards. What she has discovered is that the road humps, about 901, are in the proyerts. She has a problem with people associating road humps with those type areas. Also, since it did not meat the s proposed City Ordinance, ohs doesn't think they need i them. The test should have boon made in an area that had an established speeding problem. She wants to preoent a good image. They have had communication with City staff regarding other problems that they have been ahgainst. It's not to say they are against anything for te neighborhood.

They said ehty no longer go through the neighborhood since the speed was raised on Windsor. if you put road humps in on one street, it diverts traffic to another street. Where do you stop? She felt they had a reasonable division of traffic before the road humps were put in.

The other reason it was selected is that the ball fields have greatly increased in the last year. There are more y soccer, baseball, etc fields. This was thought to be a MA good test site. Clark said some of the backup has recentl come from the { neighborhood. The road hump survey, lust received, gives the percentages of support. There is no doubt there is some strong opposition which details have been received on that. Also enclosed is a list of E individuals who show interest in having road humps. Road humps are not the perfect solution. The perfect solution would be if everyone drove the speed limit. Putting speed limit signs up is not working. There isn't enough police officers to enforce speeding and to have enough would cost a very large figure. Clark said there is currently 6 people doing speed enforcomn for the entire city. There are at least 60 active square miles with an ZTJ of 133 square miles. long that's term. Hopefullyle that willtbe (funded itithe j future. Clark said staff is trying to implement a system that other innovators such as Dallas, Richardson, eto are using. This started back in Washington, Oregon, and I places like that. It's something that 10 years ago { wasn't considered. Liability issues were thought to be too large to overe ms. it's now acceptable and is one of the best wayys to address the problem.

There are situations where houses are located on corners and take advantage of aide streets to have mare than a 2 car garage. The current Subdivision Regulations pvohLbLt that but they are really based on the cooveacotal application. Is there a possible way that can be worded whore people in a tea dmntlal setting would be able to obtain a driveway caaseenoessat with a 3 car garage? Clark maid yes. Commissioners have a right to place items on the agenda. H things are constantly challenged, they should be addressed.

Your request alleges speed bumps may be a useful tool to encourage drivers not to cut street i corners. Our office is not aware of a specific case in Texas that has reviewed the liability issues surrounding the use of speed bumps, In all likelihood the courts will view a speed bump as either a premises defeat or special defect. Assuming, for argu- ment's sake, that a sped bump is in the nature of an excavation or obstruction in a roadway, then it constitutes a special defect. f A special defect in a roadway places the greatest responsibility under the law upon the City. A municipality owes to drivers upon a> its roadways a duty to warn of special defects, state oe . of ~gpyys v. Pavra, 838 8,W,2d 235 (Tex. 1992). For this reason, if speed bumps are to be used appropriate reflectorized signage must 1 be installed warningq of the approaching speed bumps in the same manna: as munioipalities warn of dips or curves in the roadway. You could also paint the speed bumps and post reduced speed zone signs as wall, should you have any additional questions concerning this matter please give as a call. Michael A.

It is further recommended than the Council authorize the staff to retain the services of Haynes a Boone to assist in limited legal aspects associated with the selection and placement of the City Attorney. SUMMMY dr Effective November 1, 19941 the City Council appointed the City Attorney, Ms. Debra Orayovitch, to a now Part-time Municipal Judge position. On October 4, 1994, the Council received a Court comprehensive report on the issues involved in the recruitment, selection, and placement of a new City Attorney. It was the Council's desire to use internal Human Resources staff to coordinate this process. Ms. Drayovitch has assisted in reviewing and providing recommendations on revisions to the job description, JOA, and advertising copy. Me. Drayovitch has also t recommended advertising in the om Journal. the Texas Municipal League's (TML) Texas lawn And City, and Texas Lawye for a period of at least 30 to 46 days. The recommended job description, JOA, and advertising copy are shown in Attachment I. E In addition, the Council may require some limited services of a competent legal advisor to ensure that the candidates for the position are properly qualified (from a technical competence standpoint) and that Council is properly advised on other legal aspects of the recruitment and placement. In order to provide that service to the Council, the current services of Me. Bettye i Springer, a partner with the law firm of Haynes 8 Boone, could be minimally increased to provide the needed assistance. Me. Springer's proposal was discussed with the Council in an Executive l Session on October 25, 1994. e+.av ~gane,Nc qy-03 7 Agenda11D~ ` + / r r e 1! to November S. 1994 Report to City Council - Selection of a City Attorney Page 2 With authorization by the City Council, we will initiate the first lace phase of the selection process to post the positions p advertisements, and begin re interested candidates.

TEXAS 76201 MEMORANDUM i DATEf Septomber 22, 1993 r Tol Mayor and Members of the City Council I FROM$ Planning and Zoning Commission SuH sm New Zoning Ordinance In the fall of 1990, the Council appointed the Zoning ordinance Task Force to re-write the zoning ordinance. The Task Force made its final recommendations in the summer of 1993. The Council and f, the Planning and Zoning Commission have been reviewing their recommendations. i We boliove that the reasons for forming the Task Force remain valid today, while several amendments proposed by the Task Force have boon adopted, the comprehensive ice-writing has not bead'copplited. " in the future, we anticipate even more rapid development. The recoarendations we are now reviewing seem to Nava considerable merit. They, could improve the way we deal with an increasing nuoor of zoning cases. We take no exception to the council's decision concerning funding for increased, legal assistance, given recognized fiscal con- straints. Yet, our review and adoption of zoning ordinance d improvements need not be halted. ~I We with to convey a strong recommendation that we continue our work with your support on improving the zoning ordinance. we would hope: to continue this work with you and the community and make recom"n- dations concerning this important effort that you began in 199o. We mould also hope that future circumstances may allow for funding of the legal assistance for the project. 8 f 7/568.6200 D/FW METRO 434.9529 F mown I r I i Mayor and members of the City Council +gendlNo, C/ " September 22, 1993pnd2!1 _ Page 2 Ut ; 6 ~sg our mission is to be recognized as a leading city. ifa would hope our s to you would lead to our coning ordinance bainq recoawsndation, recognized as a leading land use decision making system. 3 lebre L, Chairman a ing as Eoninq Commission JE:lah cr ~ r ~y 1 /I r r~ YY r iyAjF~ `r 9 A ~ _ y~. x~ ' A 1 k x r i C' , i ,j r raaa~WM~311 Task !ores Recommendations, why Rea* segnenoe of Consideration. i.

Consistency with other metroplex cities. 9. Enable special districts for special places, such as for additional neighborhood presentation areas, for instance the TNU-Alice-Locust-Elm Street area, scenic entranceways, indus- trial parks, or floodplain overlay districts. This section onl enables them, but does not propose a specific special ' E disTrict. (See attachment 7)0 Reasons for reoommendLW. t a. This'new section will initially incorporate the existing Historic District and the Municipal Airport Zoning regula- ~ Lions. b.

The HEI district is intended to accommodate heavy industri- al uses and manufgaturing activities which requires spacial consideration. b. Incorporates additional regulations to ensure compliance with State and Federal requirements and consideration of future transportation needs. o. Most of the standards in the performance standards section, such as odor, are not measurable and/or are unenforceable j j because there is no equipment to measure the standard, d. Hakes efficient use of rederal and State regulations. e. Tends to insure proteotion before the use is built, rather than relying on enforcement after the use is operating. t Reae n or manes.

S S "bate Page 4 b. Existing districts cover lot sizes between 7,000 and 16,000 sq. ft. 8F-E is intended to enable single family develop- ment with minimum lot sizes of one acre with ro agricultur- al uses, such as poultry hatchery, allowed. e. sr-3.5 is intended to promote affordable housing arA establish a district to accommodate town houses and zero lot line developments without sits. planning with PD zoning. i d. Adopts standards consistent with those in metro lax and nationally for town houses, zero lot line housing, and manufactured housing. e. Provides standards for mobile home subdivisions and mobile home parks without all having to site plan through 8UP's. f. rncorporates mobile home standards in another chapter of the code into the zoning ordinance chapter of the code. ( Reason for sequancai Market conditions at this time are not such warranting immediate amendments. e. Antennae standards. Reasons for raconendinat a. Provide new regulations with regard to the location, height and construction standards for antennas, satellite dishas and support structureso b. Th& regulations address impacts on residential amenity and safety standards with regard to antennas, satellite dishas and support structures. i Reason for cast No strong demand now for this cleanup and updating. 1 9. Mixed Use District (MXD). Sufferyards, master plan policy as standards,' policy sensitive site plans triggers, and wider notice for heavy impact uses. After Council approves rezoning to MXD which may be conditioned, a mix of uses is allowed according to standards* old non-residential districts stay, no change in their stan- dardes but no rezoning to old non-residential districts. All non-residential rezoning with HEX, PD or MXD. e: fib., N ATTACMIT i Page 5 Ay~7 ~enOaNa igandal ' Reasons for r29Mandin4-2 ,ate ~ ll~ 9 a. Best system of toning. b. A new framework for toning in Denton which mitigates land use impacts consistently in all areas of the city. Z!lectiveiy deals with "the edge" between different land' uses* c. Provides maximum flexibility to respond to market demands so that a tract of land may be developed for different uses without a zoning change. d. Provide a framework for zoning which states the rules and adopted policy up front to ensure quality development. e. Zoning standards explicitly follow master plan policy. f. System has been testeds relined, negotiated, discussed broadly and openly for two years with businesses, Pit, Council and neighborhoods with little to no opposition. The Zoning ordinance Task Force tested the system with more than 40 actual toning cases. 1 g. Non an American Planning Association award. h, This will ensure that existing developments and existing toning on properties will not be impacted. Development rights and standards conferred by the existing toning districts will generally be maintained. i There is no apparent demand to rezone the entire city as a, result of the zoning ordinance rewrite. # usmrcn ier.meau•ncxt Xost sensitive to legal questions. , E I , oa~~ _ Phi. 17 i ..,.._"ter • ATTACWARNT 3 QomiIYO r VOW 1.

Mr. Robbins said the outside legal services for the { rewrite were not available in the budget that was approved for l 93.48. A discussion was held to better inform the commission about the MXD district and the things that were involved in the rewrite. Barbara Russell and Dick Norton emphasized the importance of the rewrite and the MXD districts. Mr. Bates, ' a aaWx4 of the Zoning Task Force, asked the commission to remember that the MXD zoning had two sides, and they should not put on the demands without giving the developer some. of the flexibility that could be offered with the mixed use districts. Ms. Russell said she understood about the new budget, but felt that the Commission should present something to Council letting them know how the Commission felt about the importance of the toning rewrite and the MXD districts. It was the general consensus that the work should continue, possibly for the next budget. V2. Directorls Report * PD-l6 minor amendment Mixed Use District ATTACHMENT 2 Zoning Ordinance See. 3.0.

The type of bufferyard required is dependent upon the intensity area the vse is proposing to locate within (refer to Appendix), and level of intensity as defined under Land Use classification. The total effect of required landscaping within the street yard and parking lots, combined f th therequired bufferyards, should be one which Is complementary to the overall design I proposed use and an asset to the community. QUHMHAM It is recognized that land use compatibility Is often subjective In its determiflation. In determining land use compatibility, it is helpful to i determine what factors make two dissimilar land uses seem incompatible, When that is decided, it is them necessary to determine what could be done to make the two land uses compatible. This method, along with the adage once coined by the ,,Died architect Frank Uoyd Wright, ",,,green rd hides ( bumultitude of sins' were used to create the concept of bufferyards. The i ryards contained herein, and defined graphically In the Appendix, iJ, represent what is felt to be the most desirable method to mitigate detrimental sensory Impacts from a use "not like me", k + s1 ERYARD bESCRIMON There are eight (g) bufferyard categories. The type of bufferyard Is determined by 1) the i , uses being buffered, and 2) the ability to mitigate the nuisance factors assodated with each { cuse')t I% the effectiveness, of the bufferyard to accomplish the task for which it was t Diagrams and specifications of the buffo Intended to show the basic requirements fo rbuffer included in the Appendix.
