L. City of Denton; Geographical Area 2000:
j The boundaries of the City of Denton encompass approximately 40
j square miles, `Assuming that Denton continues the policy of
annexing newly-developed areas, or areas of proposed
development, and assuming that the utility policies of the City
of Denton aro not changed, it is anticipated that Denton's size
{ will increase to approximately 60 square miles by the year, 2000.
The expansion of boundaries will be primarily caused by growth
east and southeast of the City. Additional growth is also
likely in the Ryan Road and Brush Creek areas of the city, ; F
After the construction of North Loop 2880 annexations will be I
needed as development occurs north of the loop,

A. Denton County Housing Overview;
Between 1970 and 1980, the population of Denton County grew from
75,633 to 143,126, By 1990, the area is projected to contain
almost 227,600 persons, The southeastern portion of the county,
M around the cities of Carrollton and Lewisville, is growing most
rapidly.
Household growth (the increase in occupied housing units) has
1 been much faster than population growth due to a derline in
average household size, Between 1970 and 1980, the county
rined more than 26,300 households, or an average of more than
2,600 households each year. Through 1990, the county 1:,
expected to average almost 30400 new units per yoar.
Between 1970 and 1982, building permit activity averaged 2082
units per year for the entire county. Of this, 67 percent were
for single-family detached units.

0. City of Denton Housing Projections:
Because of the high_cust of housingg, high interest rates, and
changing demographic patterns, it is anticipated that
multi-family (apartment, duplex, townhouse, condominium, mobile
home/modular housing) dwelling units will exceed the number of
single-family units in the near future, If single-family
housing construction averages a 2 percent incroase per year and
multi-family housing averages a 5 percent increase per year,
multifamily housing will exceed single-family housing in Denton
by the year 1990.
By the year 2000, 57 percent of Uenton s
dwelling units will be multi-family. The following chart is a
projection based on the above assumptions;

ECONOMIC CLIMATE: FACTS TO CONSIDER
,I
A. Industrial Revenue Bond Program:
After May 22, 1987, it will be very difficult to obtain
Industrial Revenue Bonds because of new legislation. Other
sources of low-cost development funds will have to be found,
B, Industrial Zoning:
A considerable amour,t of land (17.15 percent of the city's
zoning inventory) is already zoned industrial, so there are few
requests for new industrial zoning.
E
E C. Developed Land: i
Denton has a hi hPr than average amount of developed commercial
I gg
land, which reflects the fact that Denton draws from a trade
C area that extends beyond its city limits,
j D, Investment funds:
Denton is now eligible for the Small Business Administration 503
Loan Program. Efforts should be made to make potential
investors aware of this source of funding.
E. Building Activity:

G. Employment:
Denton enjoys a low rate of uncmployment, a positive factor in
its general economy, but a negative factor in its eligibility
for certain funds, including the IRB program. Below is a

2, Demand for Library Service Will Increase--Although total
circulation w ll drop slightly in 1984-85 due to the loss
of some 6000 County residents, the City's growingg
population will soon result in steady increases in
circulation and registration.

B, Parks and Recreation Facilities:
1. Strategy for acquiring and developing park land:
Seek community support (donations, property leases)
Take advantage of all available funding sources (General
Projects Fund, Capital Improvements Project Fund,
Community Development Funds, Recreation Fund)
Petition the state for Local Park Fund "matching funds"
(60/50)
j Seek a tax Increase or bond issue for additional
necessary funding
Take stops to adapt and implement park plan once funds
k are available.

1, Number of Calls - As population has increased, the number of calls
for hire service has increased an average of 6,45 percent per year
since 1980, The number of calls for ambulance service has increased
7,5 percent per year. If the current growth rates are maintained
over the next six years, the number of calls for fire service will
exceed 3,000 per year, and ambulance calls will approach 40001 per
year. The chart below displays projections of yearly calls for fire
and ambulance service:

TRANSPORTATION AND GEOGRAPHICS
This section focuses on the possible forms of public transportation and
I locations for transportation services within the City. Although at
j present most people who need public transportation are receiving some
! kind of service (SPAN, Handi Hop, taxi service, Transportation
Enterprises, Trailways, etc.), it is probable that in the future, as the
population continues to grow and the City's boundaries continue to
expand, a public transportation plan will be required. As it stands
now, two groups of people have been identified as "prime transit
riders,
A. Riders:
1, Those who are either too young or too old to drive
themselves or are members of a household with only one or no
automobile.
2, Commuters
With an increase in population, this constituency could change
to include citixuns who would use mass transit for a variety of
other reasons.
S. Transportation Options:
The selection of a transit system to serve Denton should reflect
an understanding of the needs of the citizens. Based on the
results of a feasibility survey*, two types of public transit
have been suggested:
1, Fixed-route, fixed schedule (bus)
2. "Demand-responsive" transit, or door-to-door service ~ I

IV. KEY ASSUMPTIONS OF THE STRATEGIC PLAN
In any growth-related strategic planning process, environmental factors
must be considered, including the economy, population growth, current
financial climate, the make-up of the work force, and other, intangible,
factors. Although more research is needed before a final plan can be
established, the following assumptions and recommendations regarding
growth and development have already been made
1. The Prime Rate will go up one-fourth to one-half percent before
the election, and then rise dramatically,
2. Seventy-six thousand people will live in Denton by 1990.
3. Twenty thousand new jobs will be created in Denton by 1990,
4. The County. and the City will work together in an economic
development effort,
6. There is plenty of room for City growth.

These increases in population demand consideration from
government officials. As the population grows, demand
for services grows, along with the need to channel and
balance development. The remaining sections of this
report offer information that the Council will need to
reflect upon as it plans for Denton's transition from a
small town to a metropolitan area.

SECTION Ili HOUSING
A. Demographic and Housing Market Overview
Between 1970 and 19800 the population of Denton County
grew from 75,633 to 143,126. By 1990, the area is
projected to contain almost 227,500 persons. The
southeastern portion of the county, around the cities of
Carrollton and Lewisville, is growing most rapidly.
I
Household growth, or the increase in occupied housing
units, has been much tastier than population growth due to
the decline in average household size. Between 1970 and
1980, the county gained more than 26,300 households, or
an average of more than 20600 households each year,
Through 1990, this area is expected to average almost y
3,400 new units per year.
Between 1970 and 1982, building permit activity averaged
2092 units per year for the entire county. Of this, 67 j
percent were for single-family detached units. i

Housing Trends Summary
As of January 1, 19840 there were 11,351 detached single
family houses in Denton, and 9,841 multi-family dwelling
units. From 1980 to the end of 1984, Denton will have
experienced a 10.4 percent increase in the number of
` single family homes, and it is anticipated that by the
end of 1984 multi-family dwelling units will have
increased by 27 percent from 1980.
Because of the high cost of housing, high interest rates,
` and changing demographic patterns, it is anticipated that
I multi-family (apartments, duplex, townhouse, aondominum,
mobile home/modular housing) dwelling units will exceed
the number of single family unity in the near future. If
single family housing construction` averages a 2 percent
increase per year and multi-family housing ousi

H. City of Dentono Geographical Area 2000
j The boundaries of the City of Denton encompass approximately
40 square miles. Assuming that Denton continues the policy
1 of annexing newly developing areas or areas of proposed
development and assuming that the utility policies of the
City of Denton are not changed, it is anticipated Denton's
size will increase to approximately 60 square miles by the
year 2000.
The expansion of the 'boundaries will be caused by growth east
and southeast of the City, which is primarily corridor
related but is also affected by the recreational use of Lake
Lewsiville. Additional growth is also likely in the Ryan
Road and Brush Creak area of the city. After the
construction of North Loop 268, annexations will be needed as
i development occurs north of the loop.

l SECTION IVs Economic Climatet Facts to Consider
w
A. Industrial Revenue Bond Programs
After May 22, 1987, it will be very difficult to get
i Industrial Revenue Bonds because of new
t legislation. Other sources of low-cost development
1111 funds will need to be found.
B, Industrial Zonings
A considerable amount of land (17.15 percent of the
city's zoning inventory) is already zoned
M industrial, so there are few requests for new
If industrial zoning.
C, Annexation/Oisannesations
The following chart illustrates the
annexation/disannexation for the City of Denton

1984.

Me City's tots area has increased -T percent since

The steady increase over the past four years shows
that Denton is growing not only in population, but
{ also in area, which will allow the City to manage
and control the quality of development that will
occur on the "urban fringe."

D. UNIVERSITY LAND AREA
NTSU 393 acres, TWU 270 acres a 663 acres
(1.04 square miles). These figures are included in
the above figures.
E. DEVELOPED LAND
Denton has a higher than average amount of developed
commercial land, which reflects the fact that Denton
draws from a trade area that extends beyond its city

limits.
F. INVESTMENT FUNDS
Denton is now eligible for the Small Business
Administration 503 Loan Program. Efforts should be

J. Projections of Revenues And Expenditures to Year 2000
The following analysis is an estimate of General
Fund Revenues and Expenditures through the year
2000. The estimates were developed by employing a
trend-line to our latest Five Year Financial
Forecast.
i
These estimates are presented on the ;oll.owing
I chart. Hea:e, revenue estimates are presented for
each of three scenarios. Expenditures are assumed
to be the same in each soenario, so only one set of
estimates is provided.
Scenario I assumes that the current high rate of
growth in assessed valuation and population will j
continue throughout the forecast period. i
Scenario TI assumes that the current rate of growth
{1. in these areas will slowly decrease.
Scenario III assumes that the current rate of growth
' will rapidly decrease to a level equal to the
historical average.

SECTION VIs TRANSPORTATION AND GEOGRAPHICS
j
This section focused on the possible forms of public
transportation and locations for transportation services within
the City. Though at present most people who need public
transportation are receiving some kind of service (SPAN, Handi
Hop, taxi service, Transportation Enterprises, Trailways,
etc.), it is probable that in the future, as the population
continues to grow and the city's boundaries continue to expand,
a public transportation plan will be required, As it stands
now, two groups of people haven been identified as "prime
transit riders."*
A. Riders
1. Those who are either too young or too old to
drive themselves or are members of a household
with only one or no auto {
2. Commuters
With an increase in population, this constituency
could change to include citizens who would u4e mass
transit for a variety of other reasons,
B. Transportation options
1 The selection of a transit system to serve Denton
should reflect an understanding of the needs of the j
k citizens. Based on the results of the feasibility {i
E~ survey, two types of public transit have been
suggested$ f
1. Vixed-route, fixed schedule (bus)
2. "Demand-responsive" transit, or door-to-door
service
C. Service Areas
14 Downtown Denton
2. Flow Memorial Hospital
i
31 Westgate Hospital
4. Denton Osteopathic Hospital t
5. North Texas State University
6. Texas Woman's University
7. Denton Center
8. Golden Triangle Mall

SECTION VIII CITIZEN PERSPECTIVE
Any plans for the betterment of the city should reflect the
j citizens' outlook. In fact, the citizens' perspective is
likely to initiate, or at least influence, planning. Economic
development, while it increases the tax base, may also put a
strain on city services and amenities. The following
-I information is taken from the 1983 Denton Citizens' Survey and
shows how citizens rate City services. The survey compares
citizen responses for the years 1979-1983.
A. streets: 1979-1983 Slightly more than half said '
the streets have "many bad spots." A large
percentage say they favor a tax increase to improve
streets, but only a few would accept an increase of
more than $6.00.
B. Library Services% 1979-1983 Half rated the
library service as "good."
C. Park and Recreational Facilities: 19791983 -
There was a gradual increase from 55 percent to 63
r percent who rated the park and recreational
facilities as "good."
D. Garbage Collections 1979-1983 Approximately 80
percent said the City had never failed to pick +.ap
their garbage.
E, Emergency Servdcess 1979-1983 The Police and
Fite Departments and the ambulance service received I
consistently high ratings of "good" and "excellent."
F, Neighborhood Safety: 1979-83 There was a
decrease in the "very safe" category, from 46 j
percent to 33,2 percent who felt their neighborhoods
to be very safes there was an increase in the
"somewhas safe" category, up from 29.8 percent to
41,6 percent. A considerable percentage believe
their neighborhoods are "somewhat unsafe" (14
percent) or "very unsafe" (10 percent approximately).
G, Animal Controls 1982.1983 - Almost half rated the
service as "good."
