Included in this information is a timeline indicating dates for activities this year and in future years to c,,cur, an application form, an explanation of the process, and broad policy guidelines for the City Council to discuss. For other appointments to non-City boards, including Denco 911, North Texas Higher Education Authority, Upper Trinity Regional Water District, the City Council may want to utilize a similar assignment process. The Denton Housing Authority „yard, appointed by the Mayor, and the Civil Service Commission, appointed by the City Manager, have been omitted from this procese. TMPA has also not been included because the City Council makes only two appointments. Staff awaits further direction from the City Council regarding this subject.

City Council Members will consider ethnicity, gender, socio-economic levels, and other factors to ensure diverse representation of Denton citizens. The City Council will taka into consideration an individual's i qualifications, willingness to serve, and application information in selecting nominations for each board and commission. In an effort to Insure maximum citizen participation, City Council Members will continue the general practice of nominating new citizens to replace board members who have served six consecutive years on the same board, unless there are compel.ing reasons to retain members longer. Each City Council Member will be responsible for making nominations r for his/her assigned board and commission places, corresponding to the city council Member's place. Individual City Council Members will make nominations to the full City council for the governing body's approval or disapproval. ~i The City Council will each draw a lot to determine which City Council Member's place will begin the assignment process. The City Council Member who draws the lowest number will have his/her place matched to the first citizen board, beginning in alphabetical order by board and by current citizen serving on that board. All boards and commissions will follow in alphabetical order with current board members placed in alphabetical order within boards. City Council Members will be assigned corresponding board members in numerical order of City council place following the City Council Member who has drawn the lowest number. Boards and commissions th.it do not have seven members will continue to bp assigned in numerical order of the next City Council Members place.

WHITE, MUNICIPAL JUDGE SUBJECT: Jurisdiction of Juvenile Offenders, Ages 10 to 16 COmmitti n Class C 9 Misdemeanors Other Than Traffic Offenses ` DATE: March 26, 1993 f I This memorandum is written to highlight a recent problem which has surfaced concerning whether the Municipal Court should exercise jurisdiction over juvenile offenders, ages 10 to 16, who are to be charged with Class C Misdemeanors other than traffic offenses. Council direction is requested. i Before discussing the current problem, let me first discuss the prior decisions which were taken concerning this matter. In October 1991, legislation went into effect which gave Municipal Courts jurisdiction over juveniles, ages 10 to 16, for all offenses except Public Intoxication. In 1987, Municipal Courts were given jurisdiction over juveniles, ages 10 to 16, for all offenses, and in 1989, the Legislature returned jurisdiction back to the County Courts. In 1987 and 1988, we handled these juvenile cases until the 1989 legislation went into effect. li I In November 1991, you were briefed on House Bill 944 which gave Municipal Courts the right to exercise jurisdiction over juveniles. In a memorandum from Harlan Jefferson to Lloyd Harrell, dated October 19, 1991 (attached as Exhibit A), you were advised that based on the wording of the legislation, our legal department as w(.1 as myself took the position that we did not i have to exercise jurisdiction over juveniles, ages 10 thru 16, unless they wer4 charged with violating a City Ordinance. (See memo from Tanya Cooper to Harlan Jefferson attached as Exhibit Be dated October 10, 1991.) The position taken was that we could waive our jurisdiction allowing the County Court to handle these offenses. The ')uncil was advised in that memo and also on November 5, 199:, of the problems the Court would face if we exercised jurisdiction over these cases. The Council decided to accept the Staff recommendation which was to waive our jurisdiction and allow the cases to be filed with the County Court. (See transcript of November 5, 1991, council Meeting, Page 421, attached as Exhibit C.) ApenCANo [tie Honorable Mayor and City Council ,cl/ ? March 26, 1993 /J Page two The Juvenile Department at the Police Department began to send juvenile cases through the Diversion Program at the County Court, this was done as far as can be determined without any required waiver of jurisdiction documentation, so in April 1932, I wrote to Judge Whitten seeking to discover how she preferred us to handle the waiver of our jurisdiction. (See attached letter as Exhibit D.) No written response was received to the waiver letter, but in June 1992, Judge Whitten visited me to discuss ideas on a Teen Court Program. During this visit, she indicated that she had received my letter and believed that we could not waive our jurisdiction and that she was oing direct accept any more cases. Basically, JudgeWhittenrfeltfthattthe legislative intent was for Municipal Courts to exercise jurisdiction on at least first offenses, before we could waive jurisdiction on these cases. She and I met several other times to discuss the matter, but she did not change her position. In October 1992, the Police Department began receiving cases back from the County Court for the reason of "No Jurisdiction". (copies of several examples attached as Exhibit E.) In Fobruary 1993, the Legal Department advised the Police Department to refrain from sending any cases to the County Court or to the Municipal Court until direction could be obtained on how to proceed. (See memo attached as Exhibit F.) In addition to this historical backgrouid, the Denton Independent School District has indicated a desire for the Police to issue citations to juvenile offenders committing offenses on school property and have those cases heard in Municipal Court. The DISD and ehe Police Department are holding cases until it is determined where jurisdiction lies. I still concur with our earlier interpretation of the law--which -i is that we can waive our jurisdiction and I still believe that we would be hard pressed to handle these cases for the reasons stated in Exhibit A, Page 2; however, it does not appear that we can force the county Court to exercise jurisdiction if they are interpreting the law in a different fashion. The question at hand then seems to be how to proceed. ` V Sandra H. White SHW:cm Attachments - Exhibits A - F i l1I f 1 EXHIBIT A 4900dakc Agandalt CITY o1 DeNTON, TR"AS MUNICIPAL -UJLDFNG / 115 E. MCKINNEY / P NTON, TEXAS 76201 M E M O R A N D U M DATE: October 29, 1991 TO., Lloyd Harrell, City Manager FROM: Harlan L. Jefferson, Treasurer SUBJECT: New Legislation Affecting Municipal Court Operations I This report was prepared in response to the City Council's request for staff to meet with the Municipal Judge and prepare a detailed analysis of the recently approved state legislation affecting the municipal court. The report was developed in a format to facilitate the City Council providing staff with directions regar44ing each bill. However, you will notice that many of the requitments of the bills are mandatory, and we have complied with most of those provisions. For each bill, we provided a summary, impact analysis and recommendation where appropriate. An analysis of the effects of the bill on the municipal court operations is also presented in the report summary. The individuals who participated in the development of this report were Sandra White, Municipal Judge, Michael Jez, Police Chief, Tanya Cooper, Assistant City Attorney, and myself. However, we relied exclusively on the legal department to summarize the bills. The above mentioned bills are listed as follows: 1. Summary of HouMo. ll 2 House Bill No. 2'ends portions ,o Ic les 6675 a-1, 6701d, and 6687b of Ve"n1s Texas 'C' i1 Statutes to add the requirement of show evidei 6 f financial responsibility in order to register a v ;'obtain motor vehicle inspection, or upon applying or., IV* wing a driveres license. This legislation also sp~ifies a types of acceptable evidence of 1 financial respo"ibility. TH,types of evidence acceptable to satisfy this r4q'uirement are && follows: Page 1 8171566.8700 D/FW METRO 131.2519 1 4 f ApdaNo ~pendA ItertL 5?` 3 Memo to Lloyd V. Harrell, City Manager October 29, 1991 Page 30 this procedure, and has included a time deadline of five (5) working days for submission of these reports. _ II4DdCt of Hntia~gill No. 944 This bill will increase the workload of the Municipal court regardless of whether we retain or waive the additional jurisdiction. In the event we retain the jurisdiction, we will have to consider the following: k 1. The cases will have to be maintained separately from the adult cases. 2. The cases will have to be processed manually because of the sealing requirement. I 3. Tracking of defendant conviction history will have to be I done manually in compliance with the bill. 4. Cases will require closed hearings. This will necessitate the creation of a new docket. 5. Fines in excess of $100.00 cannot be assessed. f. Because warrants cannot be issued for the arrest of juveniles, we have virtually no enforcement mechanisms. Juveniles will be able to go unpunished. In the event the City waives its jurisdiction and allow the County's juvenile court to handle these cases: i 1. All information and findings must be forwarded to the juvenile court. 2. The juvenile court has a wide array of options to encourage juveniles to adhere with judgements. These options involve the use of juvenile probation officers to sentencing the uvenile to detention in Texas Youth commission facilit as. Recommendationt it is recommended that we waive this new jur- isdictions This is recommended for the court will have no enforcement capability to assure compliance with its judgements. This would make us less effective than the county's juvenile court. Additionally, when considering the minimal fine amounts and the feat that payment will only be on a volunteer basis, the time, energy, and effort oxbausted on Page 2 f 4wda No _V3 _PL~ Agenda IlML. ~3 _ na!e-3 Memo to Lloyd V. Harrell, City Manager October 29, 1991 h Page 11 ` these cases will not be offset. We believe the City could only do an effective job with these cases if we establish a ` teen court. VII. $S3IDatarv of House Bi 11 No 960 h House Bill No. 960 creates a new section, (Article 45.5) in the code of Criminal Procedure to specifically p~cp ide a h municipal court judge with discretion to allow a d & dant to enter a treatment program for chemical dependencsss~~~nd upon completion of this program gain dismissal a pending criminal charge. The Court may defer proceed on a plea of guilty or nolo contenders or on a findingg•t f uilt for a od of 90 enteri theiCourt fi ds th tt the of en en anesult j£ om or was related to the defendant's chemical dependency,, if a for court-ordered treatment of the( Aefend nt nisp filed licationin accordance with Chapter 462 of the Ualth and Safety Code. At the conclusion of the deferral pe)riod, the judge shall dismiss the charge if satisfactory evidhlce is presented that the defendant was committed for'~and completed court-ordered treatment. If the defendant evidence of completion, the Court may impose the fineiassessed or impose a lesser fine and the imposition of any fine results in a final conviction of the defendant in the case. Impact of Kouse 8111 Nn 960 The discretionary authority, regarding deferred adjudication, that this bill provides the Municipal Judge already existed under Article 45.54 of the Code of Criminal Procedures. Therefore, we do anticipate any problems implementing this bill. The type of deferral it offers is very similar to the other deferrals offered by the Municipal Court. The primary differenoe between this bill and the Municipal Judge's existing authority is that this bill does not allow for the asseashent of a special expense to cover cost of administering the case. It is believed that the state wants to provide alternatives to fine payment for dealing with Class C offenders. Recommendations It is recommended that as a standard practice, we continue to offer deferrals for this situation Under article 45.54 of the Code of Criminal Procedures This will permit us to charge a special eispense to offset adminis- tration cost. We find that most defendants would rather pay the special expense fee than be convicted of a crime.

This legislation al#* creates a new requirement on the Court. In the event a 466ndant fails to provide completion with4h the time allotted by the court, thecCourt must notify they' defendant in writing of the default and require the person to appear for a show cause hearing. If the defen- dant can slow good cause why the proof of completion was not submittsA'to the Court as required, the court may allow an J exte noltl of time during which the defendant may submit the un f certificate of course completion. If the defendant fa$16 to appear at the time and place for the show cause h" ring, this would constitute an offense punishable in the ,same manner as a violation of written promise tQ,app"x, House Bill No. 944 amends a number of statutes relating to the handling of situations involving juveniles. The legislation grants a municipal court additional jurisdiction for criminal prosecution of juveniles (persons 15 and 16 y of a. Previously, municipal courts had jurisdiction overajuv nilesein offenses involving a violation of a motor vehicle traffic ordinance of an incorporated city or town in this state. Now, municipal court jurisdiction has been extended to include offenses involving a misdemeanor punishable by fine only other than the offense of public intoxication and offenses involving a violation of a penal ordinance of a political subdivision. Page 2 Sande No -o 'Are fT Z. l Harlan Jefferson, Treasurer October 16, 1991 Page 6 This legislation, however, allows municipal courts to transfer their jurisdiction to the juvenile court in certain situations and requires this transfer in specific instances. The bill provides a municipal court shall, waive its original jurisdic- tion and refer a child to the juvenile court if the child has previously heen convicted of: i 1. two (2) or more misdemeanors punishable by fine only other than a traffic offense or public intoxica- tion; 2. two (2) or more violations of a ponal ordinance of a political subdivision other than a traffic offense; or 3. one (1) or more of each of the types of misdemean- ors listed above. A municipal court may waive its original jurisdiction and refer a child to juvenile court if the child: 1. has not previously been convicted of a misdemeanor punishable by fine only other than a traffic offense or public intoxication or a violation of a penal ordinance of a political subdivision other than a traffic offense; or 2. has previously been convicted of fewer than two (2) misdemeanors punishable by fine only other than a traffic offense or public intoxication or two (2) violations of a penal ordinance of a political subdivi- sion other than a traffic offense. Additionally, if a municipal court retains its original jurisdiction in these cases, the municipal court in which there is pending e. complaint against a child alle<1ing a violation of a misdemeanor offense punishable by fine only other than a traffic or public intoxication or a violation of a penal ordinance of a political subdivision other than a traffic offense shall notify the juvenile court and shall furnish the juvenile court with a copy of the final dispositions of any matter for which the municipal court has not va ived its original jurisdiction. it is my understanding the juvenile court for Denton County has developed a form for this proce- dure, and has included a time deadline of five (5) working days for submission of these reports. Page 3 I 'WdaNo Agendalf~~ !ale-_'~ % ~r z- r Harlan Jefferson, Treasurer October 16, 1991 Page 7 Clearly, whether the Municipal Court retains it6 newly created jurisdiction or opts to transfer the applicable non-traffic I` offenses to the juvenile court, this new legislation will II require additional time be spent in processing these cases. Juvenile cases must be worked manually since they are sealed files which must be maintained separately from adult files and now the juvenile's history of convictions must be tracked to comply with the mandatory provisions of this legislation. Additionally, juvenile cases present numerous enforcement problems for a municipal court. In the t gnt a juvenile fails f to comply with the court's order in a cas.: or fails to pay any ` fine assessed, a warrant cannot be executed for the incarcera- tion of a juvenile offender allowing the juvenile's failure to comply to go unpunished. on the other hand, the juvenile court, assisted by juvenile probation officers, has a wider choice of available remedies to assist in the enforcement of its orders. aoble'Dill No. 960 creates a new section, (Article 45.56) in the Code of Criminal Procedure to specifically provid 4' i municipal court judge with discretion to allow a defend o enter a treatment program for chemically dependenc pon completion of this program gain dismissal of pen " riminal charge. The Court may defer proceedings on a ] guilty or nolo contendere or on a finding of guilty '5a period of 90 days without entering an adjudication oV' ilt if the Court finds that the offense resulted from Or was related to the defendant's chemical dependency and-'if an application for court-ordered treatment of the def* Ant is filed in accordance with Chapter 462 of the Health,OLM Safety Code At the con- clusion of the deferral period, the judge steal?. dismiss the charge if satisfactory evidence is presented that the defendant was committed for and completed court-ordered treatment. If the defendant does not present satisfactory evidence of com- pletion, the Court May impose the fine assessed or impose a lesser fine and Ub i:aposition of any fine results in a final conviction of,the defendant in the case. k This type of case deferral will operate basically like all other.Mfdrral situations currently being allowed in the renton Murrklolpal court and should not prese,it any insurmountable problem to implement if the Court chooses to exercise this new option. However, this new section does not provide for the r assessment of any special expense to the defendant which :s specifically allowed under Article 45.54 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for suspension of a court's sentence and Page 4 i I ~r is enrla+tem, EXHIBIT C 4 19 Ile CITY OF DENTON CITY COUNCIL MINUTES NOVEMBER 5, 1991 The Council convened into the work Session at 5:15 p.m. in the Civil Defense Room.

The overall effect of Ub s bill w.,uld be an increase in the number of motorists ablp,,1'to show evidence of financial responsibility, resulting in fewer citations for this violation. In addition, the City yould be required to train staff on the types of evidence acceptble to satisfy the requirement of financial responsibility, oave police officers check the suspected violator's driving history and file higher charges through the District Attorney+# Office for second and subsequent offenses which would be outside the Municipal Court jurisdiction, update the Affidavit of Probable causn to reflect new types of evidence acceptable to show financial responsibility, change the citation to reflect the new name of the Act and provide a warning regarding subsequent convictions.

If the defendant could show good cause why the proof of completion was not submitted to the court as required, the court may allow an extension of time during which the defendant may submit the uniform certificate of course completion.

This bill granted a municipal court additional jurisdiction for criminal prosecution of juveniles. The municipal court jurisdiction had been extended to include offenses involving a misdemeanor punishable by fine only other than the offense of public intoxication. Staff recommendation was to waive the new jurisdiction. This was recommended as the court would have no enforcement capability to assure compliance with its jud ements. This would make the City less effective than the County's 3uvenile court. Additionally, when considering the minimal fine amounts and the fact that payment would only be on a volunteer basis, the time, energy, and effort exhausted on these cases would not be offset. It was felt that the City could only do an effective job with these cases if a teen court were established. o!

It was recommended by staff that as a standard practice, the city continue to offer deferrals for this situation. That would permit the City to charge a special expense to offset administrative costs. It was believed that most defendants would rather pay the special expense fee than be convicted of a crime. Consensus of the Council was to proceed with the staff recommendation. ' I ` House Bill No. 13il House Bill 1342 created an offense for a person to knowingly falsify any information or verification required in connection with a commercial driver's license. An operator of a commercial vehicle could not attend a driving safety course and be granted a deferred adjudication for dismissal of a traffic offense if the offense was one defined as a serious traffic violation. This bill would require staff training, a change in the City's citation, and a change in vhe municipal court software. It was recommended that the City comply with the bill by revising the citation form and the Municipal court software. Consensus of the Council was to proceed with the staff recommendation. House Bill No 2183 This bill created penalty enhancements for the offenses of Purchase of Alcohol by a Minor, Consumption of Alcohol by a Minor and Possession of Alcohol by a Minor. It also provided that the court may require a defendant upon a first conviction for any of the previously listed offenses to attend an alcohol awareness course approved by the Texas Commission on Alcohol and Drug Abuse or a similar alcohol awareness course approved by the court. A mandatory portion of the bill. would require the municipal court to maintain history files on Alcoholic Beverage Code violations in order to assess the proper fine amount. It wad the staff recommendation to utilize the existing deferral program instead of the discretionary portion of this bill. Conas',aus of the Council was to proceed with the staff ' recommendation. mats Bill No. 355 This amendment specified that the law enforcement agency that executed the arrest warrant or capias may request payment of this fee from the Court, provided that the request was made not later ApendaNo.. 13 r 423 City of Denton City Council Minutes November 5, 1991 Page 5 than the 15th day after the date of the execution of the warrant. This situation may be handled by an interlocal agreement between law enforcement agencies. The executing agency would not seek to claim any warrant fees and allow all warrant fees to remain with the processing law enforcement agency. Staff recommended that the City enter into an interlocai agreement and develop a mechanism to process requests from jurisdictions that were not a part of the agreement. Consensus of the council was to proceed with the staff recommendation. ~ ~eaate Bill No 4so 3 This bill allowed for the assessment of court costs not to exceed E $5 for cases involving parking or stopping vehicles in violation of City ordinances. The funds generated from this new fee were to be earmarked to fund city programs for school croonin event the city did not operate a school crossin g guards. In the city may deposit these funds in an interest beaarlpgp aroram, ccount for expand these funds for programs designed to enhance child safety, health or nutrition, including child abuse prevention and intervention and drug and alcohol abuse prevention.

Also the court's authorit cc &pprove any other typec of completion documentation was ell. nated. It was recommended that the City comply with this bill i there were no discretionary areas of the bill, Consensus of the Council was to proceed with the staff recommendation. "A"a Sill No 883 This bill allowed a peace officer to issue a citation that gave an Page 3 2 4 Ager,daNo AgendaltenZ..~~'~ City of Denton City Council Minutes November 5, 1991 / S 1~a.Z Page 6 l/ accused written notice of when and where to appear in front of a magistrate rather than taking the person into custody. Staff recommendation was that whenever feasible, the City issue a citation as opposed to arresting defendants. Consensus of the Council was to proceed with the staff recommendation. Jefferson continued that many of these bills increased the workload of the Municipal Court by adding time consuming tasks. The staff was already overburdened with procedural changes resulting from i case law evolving in higher courts. Increasing the Courts automation capability should occur before attempting to evaluate the staffing levels. Three potential areas of improvement were an automated answering phone system, a word processing system, and initiate the process to rewrite or replace the Municipal Court computer system. The emphasis would be on locating the most cost effective system to meet current and foreseeable future needs. The Council then convened into the Regular session at 7s00 p.m, in the Council Chambers.

When TEX. FAM. CODE ANN. sec. 51.08 was amended in September, 1989, the City council determined the mu- nicipal Court Judge should exercise provisions contained within that section to waive jurisdiction over all cases involvinn juve- niles other than traffic violations. This situation has apparently not proven to be an acceptable solution to the prosecution of these matters and ;fudge Darlene Whitten has requested that these cases no longer be presented to her Court. Therefore, until direction can be obtained and any new filing procedures for juvenile cases developed and implemented, please ad- vise your officers that fire-only penal offenses and ordinance vio- lations involving juvenile offenders sh->uld not be filed through t way you presently deal with juvenile he Denton County Court-at-Law. There should be no change in the offenses or violations claFI ified as Class dB misdemeanors t or traffic I As I said, I would welcone an suggestions your department might have for an effective meyou or others thod of dealing with the problem of juvenile offenders.

I MW CITY OF DENTON CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Date f ( ~J March 16, 1993lz4G / The Council convened into the Work Session at 5:15 p,m. in the Civil Defense Room. PRESENT: Mayor Castleberry; Mayor Pro Tem Hopkins; Council Vembers Chew, Perry, and Miller. ABSENT: Council Members Brock and Smith 1. The Council convened into the Executive session to discuss the following: A. Legal Matters 1. Considered action in Debbie S. Wright v City of Denton. I B. Real Estate 1. Considered acquisition of an option to purchase land near Foster Road. C. Personnel/Board Appointments 2. The Council received an update and held a discussion on the 191 Committee recommendations and gave staff direction. Rick Svehla, Deputy City Manager, stated that there were two issues which had been discussed with the 191 Committee in February. The first issue dealt with bonds which had been sold for culvert/bridge work on Mayhill Road at two locations and on Hobson Lane. The culvert work on Hobson was complete as was the work on Mayhill south of McKinney. The City and the County had done a temporary I solution for the culverts on the north end of Mayhill between Audra and Blagg Roads. There was approximately $30,000 saved on the Hobson project which could be used to repave Hobson from Santa j Monica near the new bridge structure to Country Club Road. Maintenance money could be used to repave all of Hobson if Angelina ; Bend were held off until the next budget year. With the Mayhill Cjc,'eet, there was approximately $50,000 remaining due to tha I :nd County's efforts in working with the Highway Department i to r.iace the bridge. Staff was suggesting using that $50,000 to r.. a portion of Mayhill. The City had requested that the Cr.in.y assist with the paving of a portion of Mayhill which was a Aoint City/County road. By using the bond money plus the County's ontribution, the City would be able to repave Mayhill from McKinney north to University. i Council Member Chew indicated that he had a concern with paving the joint portion of the road without the County commitment to assist with the funding. AWd& Na _eZ - D..._ i! ~ge+►daltmn /~'S pare y / - ~ ~ City of Denton City Council Minutes March 16, 1993 Page 2 Mayor Pro Tem Hopkins suggested that the City might be able to get a schedule from the County when they would be able to help with the paving. _ City Manager Harrell stated that most of the traffic on Mayhill was out-cf-city traffic. Svehla stated that it might be the case that the County would agree uo pav ronte of the road next year rather than having to do Mayor Pro Tem Hopkins suggested repaving all of Hobson at one time rather than in sections. Consensus of the Council was to proceed with the Hobson project and wait with Mayhill until the County was able to commit to the project. Svehla stated that the second item dealt with the list of federal and state funding projects. The City had approximately $28 million worth of work which would be scheduled during the next nine years. There was a minimal amount of cost associated with the projects which the City would have to pay. Staff was suggesting using a small portion of the highway bond funds since it appeared that none of those bonds would be required. Approximately $300,000 would have to be used for the congestion mitigation. Those projects would begin this year. The extra bond money could be used for the first year projects as the City would be reimbursed from the State for some of the projects. rrel millionnleft in indicated bond issue whichwhadabeen xsold ebut $not used at this time. Svehla indicated that any expenditures would be presented to Council for final approval. Consensus of the Council was to proceed with the concept of using the $300,000 from the street bond funds Lor the projects and using approximately $290000 for the first year expenditures. 3. The council received a report and held a discussion regarding diMunicrectipal Court the City fMa MRecord anager toesubmit ia draft oft h is legislation resolution Representative Jim Horn regarding this matter to be introduced in the regular legislative session and gave staff direction. Agenda No AQCnda ~1BR1,.,_ J fZ~M_ City of Denton City Council Minutes March 16, 1993 Page 3 City Manager Harrell stated that at the last legislative session, the city tried to get a Court of Record established. The legislation was successful in the House of Representatives with Jim Horn's sponsorship but the Senate had a problem with the legislation and it died in Senate Committee. The Senate took the position that there was a generic bill passed and cities should use that option plus the Senate did not like the specific clause that the City wanted to appoint the Municipal Judge as opposed to having that position elected. As this session started, the City had not started the project as there was no indication that there had been a change in the feeling of the Senate. The City of Carrollton was in the process of introducing a Court of Record bill for their city. They had done some behind the scenes work and felt that the problem with the Senate had been worked out. It was felt that perhaps the two bills could be combined and Ben Campbell indicated that he would be willing to help with the project. There was a provision in the statutes that 30 days notice was ne of City's intent to file legislation to establish a courteof Record. That notification had been made and a bill would need to be filed by April 6. It was the opinion of Representatives Campbell and Horn to have the bill introduced by Representative Horn. The Legal Department had taken the Carrollton bill and followed it for Denton for one thought that dealin imilarh soappeals bprocess. able to present as identical bills in the Legislature. Tanya Cooper, Assistant City Attorney, detailed the changes proposed from the Carrollton bill. The only change she had made from the Carrollton bill was in the appeals section. Carrollton used a process through the Dallas County Courts and Denton would need to use Denton County Courts. There were some differences Counc 1d the previous Dent01L bill which Coopernd tailedrtol , The Carrollton bill City Manger would appoint the Clerk of Municipa 1 Court while the ed that the previous Denton bill stated that the Clerk of Municipal Court would be appointed by the City Manager with the consent of the Municipal Judge. In the Carrollton bill, the Municipal Court Clerk would appoint a Court Recorder while Denton's previous bill indicated that the Court Recorder would be appointed by the Municipal Court , Clerk with the advise and consent of the Municipal Judge. The section which provided for a court reporter had been amended to allow for the recording of proceedings by a reliable recording device without the requirement of a court reporter's actual presence in court and provided for the preparation of a transcript from this record. This would provide a cost saving measure by reducing the time which a court reporter's service would be needed. The previous bill submitted by Denton more clearly specified the duties of the clerk. Regarding selection of a jury, it was felt Agenda No Date City of Denton city council Minutes y Ty_2~~ March 16, 1993 l~ Page 4 that a word had been left out of the Carrollton bill and that establishment of a jury would be the duty of the Municipal Court Clerk and not the Municipal court as stated in the Carrollton bill. A final area which appeared to be left out of the Carrollton bill was a "statement of facts" in the section dealing with transcripts. It was felt that this should be included in the Denton bill. Sandra White, Municipal Judge, felt that there were some provisions which Carrollton had left out of its bill which the Council might wish to put back into the Denton bill. In the section which dealt with the selection of a judge, the listing of options probably should include an "or" after t:ix options. She suggested that the Court Reporter be hired with '.he consent of the municipal Judge. Carrollton had removed two )aragraphs dealing with the gove body providing the necessary u salaries r...nd I equipment for the Court. Carrollton shad included a provision indicating that the Court reporter would keep records for a 20 day ! period. White felt that that portion should be removed and not limit a time frame for keeping a court record. Carrollton had a transcript preparation fee of $25 which white did not feel was an adequate fee. White suggested contacting the County Judges for support of the legislation. indweicated that she ad soken with some of einterested in proceeding with thetlegislation dand offered whatever help they could with the legislation. Mayor Pro Tem Hopkins felt that the Denton legislation should follow as close as possible to the Carrollton bill so not to keep it from being passed. She suggested doing what changes were absolutely necessary but not to change too much. Due to a time constraint, this item was continued during the Regular Session. The Council convened into the Regular Session at 7:00 p.m. in the council chambers. I PRESENT: Xayor Castleberry; Mayor Pro Tem Hopkins; Council Members Chew, Perry, and Miller.

The UNT police department requested the street closure for traffic control during the annual Greek Show at the Coliseum. Property owners would be allowed access to their property if needed. Council Mc.,ber Perry asked for the number of people involved in the event. Tuck replied than there would be approximately 5,000. This was a ragional event f(,v several states. Council Member Perry asked how long it would last. Tuck replied that the event would be over at 30 p.m. The street would remain closed until 11:00 p.m. in order to make sure the traffic was under control.

This program provided trees to the City's electric customers in order to save money on summer air conditioning bills and help reduce the peak demand for power on the electric system. Last year 2300 trees were distributed. Participants in the program last year indicated that they were unanimously satisfied with the program. Mayor Pro Tem Hopkins asked how the public was notified regarding the program. j Foster replied that the public was notified through news articles, cable network spots, posters in various businesses and word of mouth. To receive a tree, an individual would clip out a coupon or call a lumber to receive a coupon for a tree. Thera was a limit of one tree per customer.

The Council considered approval of a resolution directing the City Manager to submit a draft of the Municipal Court of Record legislation to Representative Jim Horn regarding this matter to be ?.ntroduced in the regular legislative session. City Manager Harrell stated that staff needed direction from Council on how to frame the legislation. Mayor Pro Tem Hopkins suggested coordinating any changes with Carrollton so as to keep the bills the same. Tanya Cooper, Assistant City Attorney, stated that Carrollton's bill had already been introduced. There was not much room to make any changes in their bill at this time.

Council Member Miller stated that the resolution indicated that copies were to be forwarded to specific legislators. He felt copies should be forwarded to Senator Steve Carriker and Representative Mary Denny James. He asked that the word "or" be inserted in the section addressing the selection of judges as suggested by Judge White. Perry motioned to approve the resolution and to add Senator Carriker and Representative James as individuals to receive a copy of the resolution. City Manager Harrell felt that with minor wording omissions, the Representative may be able to make grammatical changes even if the bill were already filed. Chew seconded the motion.

City Manager Harrell stated that information had been received on the plans of the Delta Lodge regarding the Fry Street Fair. Catherine Tuck, Administrative Assistant, stated that the Delta Lodge was considering a site on private property located on the corner of Avenue A and Hickory. There was a parking area behind the businesses there which was shared by Riprocks and the Park and Go. Delta Lodge had permission to hold the event in that parking h lot. The date of the event would be April 17 with hours from 5:00 a.m.-10:00 p.m. The Lodge was aware of the noise ordinance and the area was zoned general retail. There would be no beer/wine sales at the event. Mayor Pro Tem Hopkins expressed concern regarding residents in the direct area and where participants would park. Tuck replied that the Lodge indicated that many participants would be students who would not have cars but also indicated that they would try and use parking areas from UNT. City Manager Harrell stated that staff was merely reporting what information they had received. The Lodge was aware that the council was not interested in closing streets or waiving the noise ordinance. The Lodge knew that it would have to find property zoned correctly and that those restrictions would not be waived. It appeared that they had done that and that the property was properly zoned for the use. 15.

B. Real Estate C. Personnel/Board Appointments 2. The Council received a report and held a discussion regarding the televising of City Council meetings and the operation of a government access channel and gave staff direction. City Manager Harrell stated that Council had asked for a test filming of a Council session to determine how the televising would proceed. The tape had been prepared and staff was ready for Council direction. Bill Angelo, Director of Community Services, showed the tape of a previous Council meeting which was done as a demonstration for Council. Council discussed the placement of the external lights. Angelo stated that without supplemental lighting, the quality of the tape was very goo.:. The audio quality was good when taken off the radio broadcast but the quality was not as good coming directly off the sound system. The options with this issue included the televising of meetings, the use of the governmental access channel, and a joint agreement with the School District. Equipment expenses would be approximately $20,208 for the televising of the council meetings, approximately $2500 for the operation of the cameras and for supplies and approximately $16,323 for the channel operation. All of the equipment costs would be funded from the Sammons grant. Mayor Pro Ten Hopkins asked if the DISD was still committed to sharing the expenses. I ~endeNo.~ Agenda item ZLL -O rktte~`~ City of Denton City Council Minutes March 23, 1993 Page 2 G t Angelo replied that the DISD had indicated that if the Council bought the equipment, they would immediately start a replacement fund for equipment so that when the equipment needed to be replaced, they would buy the equipment. After replacement the equipment would be jointly owned. Mayor Pro Tem Hopkins asked about other costs. Angelo replied that the DISD would take care of their own costs for the televising. Council Member Chew asked if the $16,000 from the Sammons grant was a one time charge. Angelo replied yes that it was estimated that the equipment would last approximately 10-12 years. Council Member Chew asked if the $20,208 expenditure was also a one time expenditure. Angelo replied yes. Council Member Brock asked if there would be an intern trained to operate the equipment under the supervision of City staff. Angelo replied yes. Council Member Brock asked about the possibilities of taping meetings such as the Public Utilities Board and the Planning and zoning commission and running those meetings on the public access channel. Angelo replied that it could be done in the future. Council Member Brock asked if there would be any prohibitive costp involved. Angelo replied that there would be the cost of the taping time and the cost of the tapes. The hourly rate for the intern would be approximately $6.50 per hour. City Manager Harrell stated that there was money in the current budget for just the council meetings. If the Council wished to do other meetings, it would have to be a budget issue for any upcoming budgets. Council Member Perry stated that the cost for operation and maintenance was only $2500. I I A rla!e _ ~ ~1 City of Denton City Council Minutes I S March 23, 1993 Page 3 Angelo replied that that cost was for the res'. of this year only. Council Member Perry asked if the $160000 was a one time cost. Angelo replied that that involved the purchase of two pieces of equipment. One would he a text scanner for the bulletin board program and the other would be a light sensitive camera to be used by various city departments and as a backup for the camera used for the Council meeting. Council Member Brock asked about the televising of work sessions. I Angelo replied that there might be a problem with the size of room. If the work session were done in larger room, it would be easier to televise. It could be done in the current room but it might not be as professional. City Manager Harrell stated that that would be a policy decision of the Council. The DISD had moved their work session items to their formal board room when the new facility was completed. That might be a Council decision to do the study sessions in the council chambers. Council Member Brock stated that that might be considered when City Hall was remodeled. Council sessions upstairs felt He waswimpre good work the quality of the withg lighting and sound of the tape. He was in favor of proceeding with the broadcasting. Council Member Chew stated that if artificial lights did not have to be used, the procedure would work. Council Member Brock stated that it would be a good contribution to have the DISD change their meeting date to allow citizens to attend both meetings. She suggested looking into different ways to use the bulletin board. Council Mesbar Perry asked if the televising would undo the broadcast over radio as more people had access to radio than to ' cable. Angelo stated that it would not affect the broadcasting by the radio station. Joe Dodd stated that the Council needed to consider three items. One was whether the Council material was copyrighted so that it Vrids No __J/ City of Denton City Council Minutes March 23, 1993 Page 4 1 r could not be used for campaign material by others. A second consideration was to use 3% of the 5% franchise fee for a continuing maintenance fund. He suggested factoring in the lifeline service so that a maximum number of people would have the theresw uld be programs. With the of emphasis on how broadcasting and newspaper reported what happened at the meeting. Consensus of the Council was to proceed with the project. 3. The Council received a report and held a discussion regarding proposed amendments to the health food ordinance and gave staff direction. Nonie Kull, Manager of Environmental Health Services, stated that the proposed ordinance outlined procedures and policies already in use. Her department had met with the Restaurant Association and the Texas Restaurant Association had mailed notices of the meeting so the public had an adequate opportunity to speak on the issue. There was no resistance to the proposed ordinance. However, the Restaurant Association had asked her to make two points to the Council. One dealt with the reinspection fee of 50% of the annual permit fee which was approved in the prior budget. The Association felt the fee was excessive. The Association also asked that the proposed ordinance include a section dealing with the basis for the fee. The fee was based on the number of employees and two part- f time employees were grouped as one. This was the current procedure 1 used and the Association suggested it be included in the ordinance. Mayor Castleberry asked about the Association's concern with the reinspection feu. Kull replied that the Association felt that the fee was too high and suggested a possible $15 reinspection fee similar to the fee i charged by the Fire Department for reinspection. Mayor Pro Ten Hopkins asked what was the City's response to that request. { Kull replied that a reinspection from the Fire Department and from 1 her department were very different. If the Fire Department noted only one problem, that was the only item reinspected. If her department had to do a reinspection, a full inspection had to be done. If it were a larger facility, it could be a very lengthy and time consuming reinspection. I City Manager Harrell stated that it was very seldom that a facility had to be closed. He asked how often reinspections had to be done. I~ i A06nda Na Agelda 1460t_ City of Denton City Council Minutes March 23, 1993 Page 5 Kull replied that with some businesses, the inspectors might have t o go back several times. This was a fee that no one need ever pay If the required a uncilliesty we theefacility scored 75 or below on sthe tinspection. Council Memb-ir Chew stated that the reinspection fee was not covering the cost of the reinspection. ''-is was something no one had to pay unless they were not meeting the standards. Council Member Miller stated that the fact that the fee was based on the number of employees was policy but not proposed ordinance. in included in the Kull replied correct and that she had asked that it be included in the ordinance. Council member Miller asked for a report on the number of reinspections and the associated fees for the current year. Consensus of the Council was to proceed with the ordinance. 4 The council received a report and held a discussion regarding alternative methods to appoint members to the City's boards and commissions and gave staff direction. City Manager Harrell stated that staff would other cities used to deal with the situation of enonlongerebeing procs able to discuss appointments to advisory boards in executive session. This must now be done in open session. Staff was looking for policyrwouldnbendevel ped with these eal council would like prDposed with appointments to advisory boards. deal Catherine Tuck, Administrative Assistant, stated that an informal survey had been done with several cities. There was a variety of different methods used. Some cities interviewed prospective candidates with either a subcommittee of the council or with the full council. This was usually followed by an open session discussion or appointment. Some cities advertised for applicants and had applicants complete an application form. These forms helped develop a pool of interested citizens. other cities had informal briefings regarding the various duties of the boards or an informal reception which gave council an opportunity to meet the candidates. Dallas had a quite different approach in that each council member we4a assigned a position of responsibility for each board. when a vacancy occurred on a board, the member assigned to that position would recommend a replacement. AC ~ndp No City of Denton City Council Minutes _ V-Z - March 23, 1993 Page 6 ~r Council Membe: Miller asked if the interviews were done in open session. Tuck stated that the cities had indicated that they had previously been done in closed session but now would be done in open session. The interviews had generally been done in a work session format. Council Member Brock stated that she had discussed this issue with a council member from Desoto. Desoto interviewed applicants in open session which appeared to be very effective. f Council member Miller felt that an open interview might lima people who would come forward for board positions. He felt it I t I would not be effective in a public arena and that it would be an impcsition on citizens to go through such a procedure. I Council Yember Perry stated that it was difficult to imagine having people who would not want to participate in such, a process. Mayor Pro Tem Hopkins felt that it was different serving on a committee than being elected to a position. There might be the possibilit of individual wantinglto serve.p he felt that oCouncil tired toibe all inclusive with the makeup of the boards. Council Member Chew felt that open interviews might limit the number of people who would want to serve on committees. Council Member Miller stated th-3t if the appointment were for some type of public service' the interviews had to be done in open session but if it were an employee of city, it could be done in closed session. There was a need for a d fair to citizens who would be considered forcapore which would be siti still be within the legal ramifica':ions. He felt that the dDallas procedure might be a procedure to fol:ow. The individual would still be elected by the whole Council b,•t the nomination would be made by a specific council member. Council Member C'iew agreed with possibility o.* following the Dallas procedure and was not in favor of the interv-ew process. council Member Brock stated that with the interview process, one person might be happy and others would be unhappy, she would not want to have a "ward" process of appointments. In the past the Council had used an informal appointment process such as the Dallas system. ApendaNo '..L- r?nte._ City of Denton city council Minutes March 23, 1993 Page 7 Tuck presented an overhead, included in the agenda backup, which datailed several possible elements for the board/commission appointment process. City Manager Harrell felt that there were two different ways to proceed with the process. One way was a variety of the Dallas process in which a system would be developed with the advisory boards to determine places on the boards corresponding to Council positions. The second was the open selection process. 1 Council discussed how this variety of the Dallas procedure would not be ward politics as often a member might recommend an individual who did not live in his district or ask another member to make a recommendation if he did not have one. Consensus of the Council was to proceed with a Dallas version which would work in Denton. Jerry Cott suggested Council review the number of business people on the various boards/commissions, Council Member Miller stated that he favored the application process and the advertising for applicants. He also favored having a public meeting to learn about the City's boards/commissions. City Manager Harrell asked if council would want to keep the process for the decision making boards the same or fold those boards in the new process. i Consensus of the Council was to do the same procedures for each board. Council Member Brock felt that a letter should be sent from the City Secretary notifying current members that their terms were expiring. Council directed staff to prepare a policy which included such procedures as having the City Secretary send a letter to current members whose terms were expiring, advertising in the local media for applicants to the boards/ commissions, requesting all interested citizens to complete applications including current members, , holding a briefing session to learn about boards /commissions, 1 modeling an appointment process similar to the Dallas procedure and ma%ing final appointments in a regular council meeting. 5. The Council received a report and held a discussion regarding the city's Opticom System. ti City of Denton City Council Minutes March 23, 1993 Page 8 Jerry Clark, Director of Engineering and Transportation, stated that in 1990 the City installed an emergency vehicle preemptor system at nine signalized intersections on three major arterials in the City. These preemptors allowed emergency vehicles to proceed through an intersection while stopping all other traffic. The system sent a light beam from an emitter to a receptacle on a traffic controller which changed the traffic light to give emergency vehicles safe passage through the intersection. The system provided protection to the general public and to emergency vehicles, improved response times, improved maneuvering through traffic, minimized the risk of accidents with the emergency vehicle in intersections and reduced vehicle maintenance as the vehicles were not subjected to hard accelerating though intersections and hard stops. The original system was for ambulance response times around the Central Fire Station on McKinney. The approximate cost of the original system which was installed in 1990 was $30,000. Council Member Chew asked if the intersection of Hickory and Carroll was on the system. Clark replied that it was not an original priority and would probably be funded through the ISTEA first set of funding. Council Member Chew asked if that intersection would be done before the close of the central Fire Station.

On February 24, 1993, the Planning and Zoning Commission conducted a public hearing on Z-92_031. Due to the drainage concerns of surrounding neighbors, the Commission added a condition to their recommendation. ANALYSIS - - As one of the main purposes of a low intensity area is to protect and preserve low density single family uses, the detailed plan approved on January 21, 1991 reflected a site design layout that appeared to be neighborhood sensitive. According to the Planned Development district ordinance in the Code of ordinances, one of rove isesuperior to that ofsa straightnzoning distri t in thathit servoous one (1) or more of the following. - (1) (1) Provides for a design of lots or buildings, increased recreation, common or open space for private or public user berms, greenbelt, trees, shrubs or other landscaping features; developmentaplans,aamenitiese u special benefit to the, ~ or other or featres that would be of property users or community; (2) Protects or preserves topographical features, such as trees, creeks, ponds, floodplains, slopes or hillst or aganCallern _~~.5 ~S~A Case 2-92-031 kitd_`~p Page 3 el iJ ANALYBis, continued (3) Protects and preserves existing historical structures, features, or places, buildings, In this particular case number one 1 alies. shows 56 percent of landscaping in the streetyardThthis r amoun tlis k more than double what the required. g th the landscai Is not increasing, the applicant has mideAsome changes along then rear property line in order to proviue a better buffer from the residences. The increased gross floor area for building one (1) does not increase the 30 foot height approved for this site, it merely allows the applicant to finish out the attic area in order to provide storage that is air conditioned and heated. The requested change of building footprints is to provide more flexibility for the architects in designing the final product. The plan reflects rectangles as building footprints and the recommended condition is that no building or any part thereof shall be located outside of this rectangle. Buildings could be any shape but shall not locate outside of the rectangle. As there was neighborhood opposition to the last request, the applicant has visited with those concerned citizens and explained her proposal. According to the applicant, the neighbors did not appear to be opposed. Staff, however, has also visited with the neighbors directly behind this site who still have quite a bit of concern about the character of the building, the berms behind and the drainage. The proposed development is of good site design and represents a and Complieslwith theuse to the adjacent neihbors.

Hold a public hearing and consider amending a Detailed Plan in Planned Development No. 144, being a 1.63 acre tract located on the east side of Bonnie Brae, approximately 800 feet south of University Drive for the purpose of redesigning building footprints, increasing gross floor area, and amending the landscaping. Mr. Engelbrecht opened the public hearing. Staff report: Ms. Feshari stated that 24 property owners had been notified, one letter was received in opposition and no letters were received in favor. Ms. Feshari explained that the requested action was to amend a detailed plan in Planned Development 144 to change building footprints, increase the gross floor area of building one from 3501 S. F. to 4800 S. F. and amend the lan 'scape plan. The location of the site is a 1.6 acre tract l cated on the east side of Bonnie Brae, approximately 800 feet south of Universi- ty Drive. She stated that the requested amendment would have no significant impact on transportation, drainage, water/ wastewater, fire protection, or electrical lines. Ms. Feshari said that on January 21, 1991, the City Council approved the rezoning of this tract from Single Family-10 district to Planned Development district and approved a de- tailed plan for three medical office buildings. Ms. Feshari continued that the main purpose of a low intensity area is to protect and preserve law density, single family uses. The detailed plan approved on January 21, 1991 reflect- ed a site design layout that appeared to be neighborhood sen- sitive.

Ms. Feshari stated that the planshowed that 56% of the street yard would be landscaped, being more than double the existing landscaping requirements. The applicant also made some changes along the rear property line in order to provide a better buffer from the residences. The increased floor area of building one (1) did not increase the 30 foot height re- finish out the attic foroadditional sairlconditionedpand heated storage space. She stated that the ilitquested change for building footprints final product. Y for the architects in designing the Ms. Feshari explained that there was neighborhood opposition, and that the applicant, as well as Cit: staff, had vieited with the citizens. The main concern seemed to be the drainage issue relating to the utility easement located at the rear of the property. Mr. Engelbrecht asY.ed if there were any questions for Ms. Feshari. Mr. Cochran asked if the 1300 S.F. used for storage would be an upstairs area and if it would have windows that would face the neighbors. Ms. Feshari replied that according to the applicant,it would be used only for storage but there would be no windows. AgendeNo ape3daltem P&2 Minutes 1~Ie February 24, 1993 Page 5 Mr. Glasscock asked if the project would increase the drain- age. Ms. Feshari replied that it would not. Mr. Engelbrecht had Ms. Feshari point out the 16 foot easement on the over-head and mentioned that it seemed to have standing water in it. i David Salmon from the Engineering Department said the utility easement behind the property did hold some water. He also stated that the city would have city surveyors check the area and that the city would regrade to help ensure that the drainage is not a problem. PETITIONER: Fred Gossett, 500 S.

Mr. Engelbrecht asked who would be taking care of the utility easement. Mr. Salmon said the City would after the project was finished. Mr. Engelbrecht asked Mr. Salmon to explain how the water was being taken care of. Mr, Salmon said that part of the water drains from the church, located to the south, into the easement. Mr. Cochran asked if the parking lot would be curbed. Mr. Salmon stated that it was going to be curbed and the grades were to the front of the project. Mr. Cochran asked what type of roof the building would have. Mr. Salmon said that the roof was hip style and the building 1 would be guttered. Mr. Engelbrecht asked if the drainage in the area was taken care of by the Bonnie Brae storm drains. Mr. Salmon said yes. He also asked if there was anything i proposed for CIP. Mr. Salmon said there was nothing scheduled on the CIP program.

Mr. Salmon stated that the pipe under U.S. 380 was the same pipe that was put in when the road was Highway 24 and that it M was not large enough. Dr. Huey asked when they might widen U.S. 380. ` Mr. Salmon said that it was on the Highway Departments five I year plan. Mr. Engelbrecht asked who would be taking care of the utility easement. I Mr. Salmon said that the developer would be responsible for clean up and damage repair. The city would work on any drain- age problems afterward. Mr. Gossett complimented the staff for their efforts in making the project as compatible as possible in keeping the residen- tial characteristic of the neighborhood. He said that it was good to see staff trying to help the neighborhood deal with its concerns. He explained that he could do nothing about the water coming from the Razor property but he would take care of the water from his project. He said that the water would be redirected. He assured the Commission that he would make sure that the easement was left clean and that no extra dirt would be left in it. He said thateven though only 20 percent landscaping was required to satisfy the landscaping require- ments, but that he was proposing 56 percent landscaping. Mr. Cochran asked if Mr. Gossett felt that he had satisfied the concerns of the neighbors. Mr. Gossett said that he did not know. He assured everyone again that the project would not create a problem. Mr. Engelbrecht asked t.bout a review of the landscaping between the back and the single family area. Mr. Yost stated that everything would be native because they will survive here and look good. Fifty percent would be evergreen with shrubs like Yaupon Holly and Juniper. He also said that there would be a series of berms in front of the building. Agenda No Agerdaitem,__ /2,y ~`5fI_ P52 Minutes We- ~~---L February 24, 1993 2e Page 7 Y"Z~ Or.

He pointed out that he I represented no group other than his wife and himself. He had lived at this location since 1970 and that his daughter was born during the time of flooding in the area. He said that the contractor and the City staff had spent time with the neighbors but that he felt that they were unable to see what the neighbors feared. They had not actually watched the flooding and the drainage problems. He pointed out that the easement was 16 feet and it was only 17 feet from the easement to the back of the building. The blue prints did not show gutters but that the contractor said that he would install gutters if necessary and that the City staff had assured the neighbors that the drainage would not be a problem. He said that looking from the church north it could be seen that the property owners poured a one (1) foot coni;rete wall to keep water out. The water crosses Stanley. He stated that he had no other problems with the project if the water was kept on the property. Mr. Cochran said that the addressed. He asked ifMr.~n Waoff tkins o was c nvin ed th tbthe problem would be taken care of. Mr. Watkins said that they wanted to believe it and that it was a critical area of concern. Mr. Cochran said that the developer intended to install gutters and drains. Mr. Watkins said that the developer seemed more than willing. He stated that he had no other problems if the water could be contained on the property. Mr. Engelbrecht asked if there was anyone else present to speak in opposition. Lynda Lystad, 2437 Emory, said that she was concerned about the drainage from Razor Hill.

In 19680 when there was not a lot of buildings and during bad rain, the water drained across the property and down the ditches. Fill dirt was brought in and the flow did slow down across the property and the excess water drained down the ditches and Emory Street. She said that she had pictures of her daughter sitting in waist deep water in the street. The scary part has been since Bonnie Brae was resurfaced. Water has collected where cars could not I get through. There are very few drains on Bonnie Brae. In five miles there are only 11 drains. Mr. Cochran asked if the City had made the flooding worse when it tried to correct the problem. Ms. Lystad said yes. Mr. Engelbrecht asked if she and the other residents had met with or made requests to be part of the CIP. Ms. Lystad said no, but that she had spoken to David Salmon sometime ago. Mr. Engelbrecht told her that things could be done to help. Mr. Cochran advised her to call the City ai.d get on the CIP program, i Mr. Engelbrecht told her that she could address the staff after the hearing or call Mr. Robbins. Mr. Robbins asked Mr. Salmon if anything was currently on the CIP list. Mr. Salmon said no. Mr. Engelbrecht asked if there were other comments. Nancy Slack, 1121 Stanley, stated that she was really glad ' that this type of project was going up instead of apartments. There had always been a concern about the drainage. She said there was a meeting with Ms, Feshari, Mr. Baughman, Jerry Clark, Dr. Janke, and Mr. Gossett. There was a verbal agreement to install gutters. The main concern was that the things that were verbally agreed to were carried out. She stated that she was assured that any drainage problem would be taken care of.

Mr. Gossett said the berms were on the property lines. The berms were five (5) or six (6) feet long and one and one half (1 1/2) feet high. If needed, they could possibly move or remove the berms. Ms. Feshari said that Mr. Clark a..' Fir. Salmon assurkad her the berms were for aesthetic purposes only and will not affect drainage. G.R.

He said that Planning and zoning approved the plan and that some of the people on the council voted against it. He hoped that they would develop a little more caring for the neighbors. He stated that he could get more compassion from a street walker, He also asked what they were going to allow next, renting rooms by the hour, Mr. Englebrecht asked if there were any more comments. Carl Spindle, 1200 Stanley, said that he has lived next door to Mr. Watkins since 1980- People fail to understand the flooding. He said that he did not want to go back in time, Just make sure it is not going to make the drainage worse. The drainage did get better after Bonnie Brae was finished. He said that his main concern was that this project might put water back on the residents, The drain did not seem to be large enough during a heavy rain. He said that the water stops on Bonnie Bras, crosses back over by the church and flows down Stanley. He said that they still had some doubts, but would be willing to work with the developer to see that this does not happen. He said that he felt that the project would be good for the area if the drainage does not become a problem, Mr. Cochran asked if Mr. Spindle liked the project but just needed some reassurance that the drainage would not be a problem. 1 J Apanda Na AWdaltoRz 5fI P62 Minutes February 24, 1993l~ Page 22 G~7 I I Mr. Spindle said yes. i Recommendation, Ms. Feshari stated that the staff reccmmended approval of case 2-92-031. Mr. Cochran asked Mr. salmon how the City was pro osin to take care of the problem and how soon, p g Mr. Salmon replied that the City surveyors would go out after the building is complete and the contractor has cleaned up the site. The surveyors would determine the low area and the city would do what grading is necessary to make sure that water does not stand. Mr. Bucek, Assistant City Attorney, said that it needed to be made clear what the City can and can not do. The City can not contract to do anything. It is relying on the engineers hired by the applicant, to let them know that the project will be okay. If it does not work and the project does cause the property to flood, the property owners have the right to sue t he owners of the project. The city is here to make sure that the general iflooding i sue ec The sit n d d nthi ots creates a' not the they are trying to do a better job. problem, Mr. Salmon stated that the area is in a zone A flood zone. The topography of the area is so flat that water could stand J before it would run off. During a ten (10) year storm the culvert under University is not large enough and the water would bottleneck at Highway 380 no matter what. Mr. Engelbrecht asked what the City has done to help, Mr. Salmon said the only thing would be to go and iall additional drains before the State does. T xasidrainageslaws will not allow you to change the flow from one drainage area and direct it to another. Mr. Engelbrecht said that they were askin ' the Commission could better understand, g questions so that Rebuttals Mr. Gossett said that he was sorry if anyone felt like they had been lied to. The 30 foot building is typical h for Denton. He stated that if the project were homes it would probably have been seven (7) single family homes with 21,000 square feet of roof space compared to 10,000 square feet of i i II { I Agendalte Feb P&Z Minutes February 24, 1993 Page 12 l roof space where drainage is controlled. He stated that the neighbors were addressing a problem that has been ongoing for years. This project has not caused the problem. He asked that the commission give the project favorable thought. r Mr. Engelbrecht said that a couple of folks asked about gutters and how Mr. Gossett would feel about that being a condition. Mr. Gossett agreed and said that no water would run off the buildings and it would drain to the rear. Mr. Engelbrecht said that he had lived on a street where water stood curb deep. He said that he was aware that drainage problems existed but did not feel that this particular project would add to the problem. Dr. Huey said that she empathized with the neighbors, but that there had been assurances from several sources that the project would not impact the drainage. Mr. Engelbrecht closed the public meeting; Decision= Dr. Huey moved to approve 2-92-031 to PD with the condition that the building be guttered.

Both streets are improved so no paving improvements are required. • Sidewalks as shown are acceptable. • As this property is almost completely surrounded by lay down curb, curbing will need to be dowelled into the existing curb and ;standard drive approaches will need to be established. Utilities: Water: There is an 8 inch line available on Collins and a 6 inch line available on Neff. Wastewater: There is a 6 inch sewer line available on Welch Street and a 6 inch line on Collins; however, this particular line is currently overloaded. Fireflow: There is an existing fire hydrant at the corner of Neff and Collins. Fireflow is more than adequate for the proposed development. Electric: Electric service is available from existing facili- ties. If the fraternity plans for additional electric load or a change in voltage at the building, the electrical engineering department should be notified in advance to work out details. Drainages • As this is already developed property, the impervious area will not change, therefore, no public drainage improvements will be required. agenda No 93-0// Agenda lienz--Z"s Case Z-93-003 lbIe__%3 Page 3 7 7 - - - - - - - - - - - HISTORY All records indicate this property was zoned SF-7 in 1969 via the adopted zoning map. The building however, was built before this and was utilized as a sometime various religious organizations ha grocery store. located y here. Since then, ANALYSIS i _ This property is in a low intensity area. Although the Denton Development Plan allows for small scattered nodes of nonresidential uses within these areas, the primary focus is given to protection and preservation of residential uses. In analyzing the criteria for nonresidential uses in a Low Intensity area the following are considered: 1. Strict site plan control. Developments must maintain the character of the area with architectural design and landscaping. As this structure has been in existence for numerous years functioning either as a grocery store or a church, achiev- ing the architectural compatibility may be difficult. However, the applicant is proposing increased landscaping and screening in order to mitigate any negative impact. 2. Traffic design to ensure that multi-family and nonresiden- tial uses have access to collectors or larger arterials with no direct access through residential (local) streets. Welch is considered a collector street, however Collins is currently a local (residential) street but is planned as a collector to the intersection of Welch. At this point, heading west, it will maintain a local street designation. Given the character of this area, the drive approach as shown, is acceptable as a I'orie-wayll. 3. The overall density/intensity standard is not violated. This site is currently allocated 69.93 trips based on institutional use (.758 x 85). As this property is only intended for a meeting hall with no residential uses, the ~genraNo Agenda I I em i_?L Case Z-93-003 Page 4 r~ ANALYSIS, continued intensity allocation remains the same as a fraternity is considered an institutional use. 4. Sufficient green space, recreational facilities, and diversity of parks are provided. i Required streetyard and landscaping is 20%. Most of this site is considered in the streetyard. The detailed plan reflects 38 percent of the streetyard landscaped. i 5. Input into planning by neighborhood associations and councils is encouraged. The applicants have conducted two (2) neighborhood meetings with only two residences appearing. Staff has not heard any negative feedback from the neighborhood. 6. Concentration/Separation policy is not violated. The concentration/separation policies are satisfied as the use of a grocery store or church, has been in existence prior to 1969. Staff has concern over the required and provided parking. Accord- ing to the parking regulations, this type of use is considered public assembly, parked at one (1) space per three (3) seats. Currently there are 35 members of the fraternity, however, at times i there may be as many as 120 people in the building. Thus 40 spaces would be required. Fraternities generally generate quite a bit of traffic but to be assured of reduced parking problems the applicant has agreed to a condition which would limit the occupancy of the building to 120 maximum. In addition, staff is recommending 1 another condition, like that imposed on the Alpha Delta Pi Sorority (Ave A), that no on-street parking be allowed on either Collins or Welch by the persons utilizing the building. In otherwords, all parking must be contained on-site. i The fraternity has worked closely with the west and has agreed to increase the wooden r screening owner the standard six (6) feet to eight (8) feet as well as adding a dense type of evergreen shrubbery along the fence line. Staff believes the applicant has tried to mitigate any negative impacts this type of use would have on the community. ~gendaNo 3- Agendaltem I 0,51 Case Z-93-003 7 Page 5 ANALYSIS, continued i~ In order for the City to be able to manage the proposed use in a residential area, the Planning and Zoning Commission has considered specific conditions and is of the opinion if they are approved as part of this request, the proposed use would be in compliance with the policies of the Denton Development Plan.

Intensity is measured by, the number of -vehicle trips that are [ J attracted or generated by a particular development in trips per day per acre. (t/d/sc). The average trip generation rates by lead use category given in Table I have been adopted after reviewing trip generation rates published by the Institute of Transportation I Engineers (IIE), the Arizona Department of Transportation and local/regional data. i Since the average trip generation rates are used to measure the Intensity of land uses in a particular area, average trip rates are referred to as 'intensity trips' and the area is called an 'intensity aces'. The standard methodology for Intensity calculation keeps track of the trips generated by existing developments and potential future developments in the various Intensity areas. The Plan designates three types of intensity areas with specific intensity allocations in trips per day per acre. Low intensity areas are allo:ated 60 t/dJac. Moderate activity centers are i, allocated 350 t/d/ac. Thy major activity centers have no limits on the number of trips generated by land use developments. Accordingly, an analysis of intensity for a development is a major activity center is not done.

Consider the final plat of Lot 40 Block it Loop 288 Centre being a 4.4983 acre tract located on the south side of East McKinney, approximately 280 feet west of Loop 288. STAFF REPORTS Staff report was given by Karen Feshari. (See attached). Ms. Feshari said that no great improvements are warranted as this was a State Highway. A 75 feet utility easement was located to the east of the site. An eighteen inch sanitary sewer line and a 20 feet water line also is available. Fire Flow is adequate. The retention pond will be used for onsite drainage, but may be eliminated when the Texas Department of transportation competes the widening of the barrow ditches along loop 288. The water would drain primarily across lots two (2) and three (3). Those lots are owned by a different party, so permission must be granted by the owner to drain the increased run off across their property. We have received the necessary permission from the property owner. Sidewalk would also be required across East McKinney Str.;et frontage. Construction or guarantee of the sidewalk would have to be completed prior to plat filing. All drainage improvements must be in place prior to Building Permit issuance. Ms. Feshari said that the Development Review Com.nLttee recommended approval of the final plat as it conforms to the minimum requirements of the Subdivision and Land Development Regulations.

The City initiated the annexation. Staff would like to present both the zoning and the annexation to Council.

Harrell, City Manager SUBJECT: Authorize Professional Service Contract with Coopers ar,d Lybrand r i to A:rist in Managing Insurance Program with Philadelphia American Life Company Insurance (PALICO) RECONMENDAT.IOM; i It is the staff's recommendation that the City Council approve with Coopers and Lybrand to provide network and financialmanagementtract services to the employee health insurance program. SUMMARY: January 1, 1993, marked the beginning of our second year with PA,LICO's health insurance program. During this plan /ear, we implemented a revised benefit schedule designed to help us control costs. Participation in the network by local medical providers remains stable. Currently, we have more than 120 Denton medical providers on the plan, and we are still receiving calls from local providers who want to join our network. This means that we are continuing to meet the jdical needs of the majority of our covered employees and dependents locally. As part of our cost-management strategy, the network is reviewed quarterly by our utilization review committee, This is to ensure that provider practice patterns are consistent with our cost objectives, During these meetings, claims data are presented to the various provider groups and questionable practice patterns, in terms of cost to the health plan, are addressed with representatives of the providers. One of th3 objectives of the contract with Coopers and Lybrand is to ensure that the network is properly managed to control medical costs, BA KC OUND.. On December 8, 1992, staff presented to the City Council an update about the performance of the health plan as we were completing our first year cm the new Intereheastltihnpdevelan presentation, we eApressed 1993 that would include aspects of our wellness program. The contract with Coopers and Lybrand will assist us in cost-containment planning and provider network, managemert. In addition, the contract will assist us with the following: 0 Direct provider utilization review to monitor utilization patterns of the five hospitals and individual providers on our network, 0 Perform financial and re-rate analysis of the health plan, and provide profit and loss reports on monthly basis.

During the 1992/93 budget, the Council authorized that $4 per employee per month be earmarked from health insurance premiums to fund the professional service contract for the health insurance program. For the 1992 plan year, Council authorized the funding of Coopers and Lybrand's professional service contract from this fund. Coopers and Lybrand understands the City of Denton's medical insurance goals, and has developed a partnership with the local medical community to help u3 achieve those goals. Also, the company understands the various cost-containment is,ues we wish addressed during this plan year. Therefore, staff recommends tf,at Council authorize the proposed contract with Coopers and Lybrand to provide utilization review and provider management, and recommendations to enhance the health insurance program during this plan year. This contract will further assist us in providing analysis and recommendations for 1594.

The composite rate for the entire contract is approximately $135 per hour, and represents Coopers and Lybrand's special and discounted rate for clients such as the City, FISCAL IMPM Coopers and Lybrand will charge the City based on actual professional time spent and expenses incurred. In 1992, the Coopers and Lybrand contract was funded for $37,000. The cost of funding the contract during this plan year (January 1 through December 31, 1993) 1s estimated at $38,300, The $1,300 Increase In 1993 1s due to three major cost-containment measures that we expect to develop for implementation in 1994. These are retiree health coverage, a wellness incentive plan and alternative premium structure, The extra funding $1,300 is included in the 1992/93 budget approved by City Council.

This desire led to the design of a visioning project which has been titled "A Vision for Denton - the 21st Century". As contemplated, this effort would be sponsored and lead by seven institutions which have their own budget and authority to make decisions. These institutions would form a partnership committed to establishing a vision of the Denton of tomorrow, initiating action that promotes that vision, and implementing plans that will link vision to action. Although this effort would be sponsored by Denton's community-wide institutions, the essence of the project would be broad based citizen involvement. Believing that the process is at least as important as the product, great care would be given to involving the entire community and to ensuring that all elements of Denton are represented at the leadership and participant levels. This aacknowlproedjesects "A citizens nthefor mselvestshould shape their city. It is through their actions that a city's soul takes form and then soars to new heights. This visioning project can enhance Denton's ability to be a very special place. I ik r II agendaNo RECOMMENDATIONS - VISIONING PROJECT STEERING COMMITTEE Jim Alexander, Carl Anderson, Russell Bates, Eultne Brock, Dick Engle, Pat Gobble, Lloyd Harrell, Dean Kahney, Bettye Myers, Jack Miller, Linnie McAdams, Jeff Moseley, John Polster, Gerald Ponder, Victor Prybutok, Margaret Smith March 4, 1993 In accordance with action taken at January 13, 1993, Steering Committee meeting, Carl Anderson named a subcommittee consisting of Carl Anderson, Lloyd Harrell, Dean Kahney, Jack Miller and Bettye Myers. That subcommittee was charged with the task of developing the suggested work plan for the project. Thereafter, the subcommittee met on three different occasions and formulated a work plan and project recommendations. These were submitted to the full Steering Committee on February 25, 1993. The plans were amended, i and the revised project outline is submitted for approval. The revised recommendations are"as followss • The purpose of the project is to develop a vision of Denton for the 21st century and to formulate a strategy for reaching that vision. Accordingly, the project should be called "A Vision for Denton - the 21st Century". • The following agencies would be invited to become the sponsors of this community effort: The City of Denton= the Denton Area Chamber of Commerce the Denton Independent School District] Texas Woman's University the University of North Texas Denton County United Way; and the Denton Record-Chronicle. • Each of the sponsoring organizations will be asked to contribute various goods and services to the project such ass monetary support, secretarial support, interne to assist each of the impact committees, training assistance for kickoff facilitators and impact committee chairpersons. Each sponsoring agency will be asked to agree to assign two "decision makers" from their institution to serve on a project cabinet which will meet regularly to guide the project. In addition, this cabinet will continue to meet following the completion of the project in order to monitor the prugress each agency is making to further the vision for Denton. AgenlaNo Agenda )}emf~~/i~ RECOMMENDATIONS Page 2 3 6 f • The kickoff event should occur in September, 1993, although intense activities to promote the project need to be occurring until that date. • The kickoff event should be approximately four hours in length and be a general information gathering event. In addition to generating information which would be utilized to help determine the various impact areas, this session would be designed to get people excited, explain the purpose of the project and stimulate attendees to want to become a part of the effort. • Some type of outside speakers should be included in the kickoff event including the possibilities of a futurist and/or the city manager of Rock Rill, South Carolina. • A "Vision Room" should be located where various impact group could meet and the work projects could be displayed. • Impact groups should be charged with developing strategies for achieving "the vision" within their areas. In order to accomplish this goal, the groups should consider efforts such as public meetings, J field trips, surveys, focus groups, etc. • Selectior, of the members for the impa.:t groups is considered to be a key element for the success of the project. Special attention should be given to ensure that the individuals selected are representative of the community. Therefore, criteria such as race, age, sex, length of residency within the community, etc. should be considered when forming the groups. The same criteria should be utilized when ' selecting the co-chairs for each impact group. AMM00248 Agenda No Agenda item--, _S `0// fj RECOMMENDATIONS Page 3/.SJ • Although the time line for the effort indicates a May, 1995 concluding date, this date is tentative and could be altered later. On the other hand, the process is at least as important as the product. Therefore, the effort should not be rushed unnecessarily. • The Mayor should serve as the chairperson of the effort, and the City Manager should serve as the project manager. • Other key recommendations are incorporated in the Loathed "pert chart" which describes the project in greater detail. In addition to the "pert chart", please find summaries of the subcommittee's meetings of January 22nd and January 29th. These summaries provide more details and describe other minor conclusions reached by the subcommittee.

Harrell, City Manager i DATE: January 22, 1993 SUBJECT: Summary of Planning Meeting of January 22, 1993 Based upon my notes taken at our meeting, the following conclusions were reached by the group: The sponsoring organizations for our effort, pending their approval, will be the City of Denton, Chamber of Commerce, Denton County United way, Denton Independent School District, Texas Woman's University, University of North Texas. Each of these organizations will be asked to contribute to the project in order to make it successful. Contributions can take the form of the services listed below or a combination thereof: - secretarial support - monetary support - interns to assist each of the committees - conducting training programs for kickoff facilitators and committee chairpersons I The purpose for the project is generally to "develop a vision i for Denton by and formulate a strategy for reaching that vision." The reason for the kickoff session would be to get people J excited, explain the purpose of the event, and stimulate ' attendees to want to becomti a part of the effort. .At the kickoff session, we should have two people assigned to each group, and we should have a brief training program for these group leaders. There was much discussion about how to structure a kickoff event. There seemed to be general consensus that some type of ; outside speakers would be desirable including the ~I apendaHo_, ~~-G// Agenda lt6m_ Visioning Project Planning Group n1 '3 ~~-===1~; January 22, 1993 Page 2 1 Possibilities of a futurist and/or City Manager of Rock Hill, 1 South Carolina. There was much discussion about how the "break out" groups should be formulated. There was consensus that however they were formulated, there should be structure to the event and all of the discussion questions should be formulated ahead of time. Lloyd Harrell was asked to contact the City Manager from Rock Hill, South Carolina, and discuss options for forming the various committees which would be used in the process. The basic questions evolved around whether the committees should be determined by a small working group and announced at the kickoff event or whether the groups should be formulated after the kickoff event utilizing input from the various break out groups. Whatever the format, it was also agreed that there should be a sign up sheet at the end of the event where people could express areas of interest in very broad terms. This ' Information would be used to help make committee assignments. In the invitation to the kick off, it was suggested that we ,I list the types of subjects discussed by other communities in their visioning projects.

Harrell, City Manager DATE: January 29, 1993 i SUBJECT: Summary of Planning Meeting of January 280 1993 Based upon my notes taken at our meeting, the following conclusions were reached by the group: ■ The City Planning Department will be asked to start compiling some preliminary information about Denton's current characteristics which can be shared with interested individuals later in the process. Specifically, they will be asked to draw a picture of what Denton would loot: like if we didn't change a thing and allowed natural trends to take their course. In addition, future trends which need to be examined would be identified by the Planning Department. ■ it was noted that the University of Houston at Clear Lake would be a good source to turn in order to identify a "futurist" for the kickoff session. ■ The group agreed to add to the list of sponsoring agencies the Denton Record-Chronicle. In addition, each sponsoring agency will be asked to agree to assign a "decision-maker" from their institution to serve on a committee which will meet regularly following the project in order to monitor the progress each agency is making to further the vision for Denton. ` ■ The group agreed that the Visioning Project Committee would keep functioning at least for a couple of years after the conclusion of the visioning project, and that Carl Anderson should continue to serve as Chairman of that particular effort. ■ The group suggested that Lloyd Harrell be considered to serve as Project Director and that a Chairperson of the P~endaNo A~en~altent_ :~s ~ f~ _ Visioning Project Planning Group S.CS~ January 29, 1993 Page 2 effort be selected with the possibility of Mayor Castleberry serving that role. It was agreed that the kickoff effort should occur some time during the early fall of 1993, but that intense activities to promote the project need to be occurring until that date. ■ It was agreed that the overall goal of emphasizing , progress versus product would be built into the design of the visioning project. In addition, it was suggested that the Denton Municipal Complex might serve as the location for the "war room" for this particular activity. ' I + It was mentioned that we should shoot for the kickoff event to be approximately four hours in length and to be a general information gathering event. Bettye Meyers supplied the attached questions for possible utilization by the various breakout groups. • It was agreed that we would not utilize a citizen survey, at least early In the process. It was agreed that the subcommittee would suggest the following title for the projects "A Vision for Denton - the 21st Century". • For the next meeting, it was agreed that Lloyd Harrell would design a "pert chart" reflecting the decisions made by the subcommittee.

That is net going to happen to Rock Hifl. South Carolina. J Rock Hill has a plan. It's a 10-year strategic plan called "Empowering the Vision," designed to make the city more 1 livable by the year 22M. Specifically, it is making improvements in six areas: education, business, arts and culture, h !torte preservation, parks and greeaways, and roads and utilities. Two aspecu make this plan unique: one, seven governing bodies with their own budgets and authority to make deci• !ions have formed a partnership to implement the plan, thus giving up some of their autonomy. They are the City of Rock Hill, York County, Rock Hill Economic Development Corporation. Rock Hill School. District, Winthrop College, York Technical College and Rock Hill Area Chamber of Commerce. The other unique aspect of this plan is that it outlines very specific projects to be completed by each entity each year berween 1990 and 2000. For instance: It doesn't simply vice that Rock Hill will have a better educational system by the year 2000. It says York Tech will implement a new dental hygiene program in 1991 (which it did), that Winthrop College will secure approval for Bachelor of Fine Arts degrees in 1993 and the Schooi Dtstrict's annual dropout rates for grades 9.12 will be less than 2 percent in 1996. I - It doesn't simply state that Rock Hill will preserve old buildings. It states that Rock Hill will form a Historic Commis• lion in 1991 (which it did); that Wintbrop College will renovate Braezeale, Peabody and Sims Halls in 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively, and that the city's Historic Review Board will nominate the Aiken Avenue area for the National Register in 1993. It doesn't simply state that Rock Hill will improve its transportation system this decade. Instead, it says that the City rid state will construct a tour lane extension of Dave Lyle Boulevard to the North Carolina state line by 1994, that the city will strengthen and lengthen the airpon runway in 1995, and that the Ciry will insult water and sewer lines along the Dave Lyle Boulevard extension In 1994 and 1995. These are just a few examples of the hundreds of projects listed for the seven imtitutions in the 10-year period. "Empowering the Vision" is making Rock Hill more livable. It is enabling residents to mainuin a small-town, yet progressive, lifestyle while enjoying nearby big city beneEts. It is helping the city plan for growth while developing a distinct M identity in the quickly expanding Charlotte metropolitan area. Mayor Elisabeth D. Rhea, better known as "BetryJo," chain the Steering Committee, which is responsible for shaping the plan. She is very active in getting tae programs implemented and at spreading the word not only locally but at the state and national levels. Her leadership in creating a working partnership between the public institutions in this county, as well as involving the private sector, is an excellent example of how cities can and must become more entrepreneurial to this time of scarce resources. The only way cities an succeed and improve their livability is by aggregating resources - in effect, creating a bigger pie - rather than by arguing over how to divide the traditional tax-based pie. The plan's development took almost two years and involved the enure community. More than 2.000 residents helped create this image - their Image - for Rock Hilt, and cituen groups continue to work with the City on the plan's Implemenu- von. The economic development aspecu of"Empowering the Vision" have strengthened and diversified Rock Hill's eeon• ' omy, bringing much-needed jobs and a broadened tax base. But on a less tangible level. "Empowering the Vision" has done much, much more. The plan has Gutilkd is residents a sense of unary, a lease of purpose in workng together coward common goais. It has Instilled a sense of community, as citizens join each other to encourage the plan's implementation, Whole neighborhoods have joined together to clean up their streets and to redevelop the historical and cultural aspects of the city. This is as It should be. For it is the citizens themselves who shape a ary, it Is through their action and reactions that a Ws soul takes form and then soars to new heights. It is what happens when a city has a plan. f ~psndatt~f►Z__ & EMPOWERING THE V;. 310 8 A C K G R 0 J N D~~ 7 Rock Hill was founded in iw, a community foursquare mties in area. Anne cin soon became a "boom town" as ;he cen:er for cotton trading and attracted many mills to process the natural fiber. But the textile industry's domination cam- ;o an acrupt ]salt in the late 1970'5, with new technological advanas:n man-made fiber production. Civ offc,as and citizens painfully watched their atv's economy crumble. The ti textile mils dosed, one by one. Unemplormcnt soared to a high of 17.24b, Another force changing Rock Hill was growth. Just 25 miles to the north, Char• lotte, S.C., was bunting with activity and population. The opening of international flights made the entire Charlotte metro. politan area feel even more sharply the impact otgrowth and global competition. That growth began marching southward toward Rock Hill. City leaders realized that Rock Hill had to take respcnsibtliry for creating a more stable and diversified economic base. I, They decided to meet the growth head on. Rather than allow their town to be engulfed, they began to prepare a plan to manage the growth, to amnge for adequate facilities and utilities that would direct Lite growth in an orderly manner. The plan would be long term and strategic It would make Rock Hill unique, and restore a sense of community and purpose, while reflecting the citizens' own ideas about their dry's image. In order to devise a plan that was both comprehensive and strategic, the City approached other public and pnva rte institutions facing the same growth issues. They were the Rock Hill Economic Development Corporation, Rock Hill Schoo District, York County, Winthrop College, York Technical College and the Rock Hill Area Chamber of Commerce. The l purpose: to develop a comtaunitywide long-range plan for the 21st century. The plan that resulted from this pubGa'prtvaie partnership is the ten-year plan entitled "Empowering the Vision." I THE P R O G R A M "Empowering the Vision" began In January 1998 through the formation of the Steering Committee, consisting of the Chief Elected Official and Chief Executive Officer of the seven institutions. In February and March, the Steering Committee studied major treads, issues and problems affecting Rock Hill, and mused about the opportunities those problems represented. The committee identified six themes to describe Rock Hill u it emerged into the 21st century: the Business Ciry, Cultural City, Education City, Functional City, Garden City and Historic City. The Steering Committee also established the framework for a massive participatory planning process that would involve all faces of the community in developing this vision. Co-chairpersoru were appointed to each theme group along with (weary or so ci tizens. In April 1QS8, the process began with a formal "Kick Off." All citizens assigned to a Theme Group were invited to a mo•dav onenution, where they reviewed the Steering Committee's research. The groups were given one task: to dream about how they wanted Rock Hill to look in the year 2000. Art unused downtown building was donated as the headquarters far the planning process. Each Theme Group met is the facility and suned work. Staff was provided to asset the Theme Groups by keeping records of meetings and doing re• search.T a Theme Groups took d1ereat approaches. Some took field trips to other aces for new ideas, others hosted guest speakers, yet others conducted surveys. By October 19, 1988, all of the groups were prepared to make their recommendations to the Steering Committee. It was an eventful nigh4 u all of tlae Theme Group members, the Steenng Committee and other citizens were present to hear the vision for the year 2000. Based upon the recommeaciatiom, theSteenng Committee On eloped speafle projects and activities to accomplish te Theme Groups' goals. Six strategy boards were prepared, outlining the years 1990.2000. These boards consist of the overall' "%,sion," or goal, of that particular theme, plus color-coded protect cards identifying a specific activity, and the entity respon- sible for accomplishing that activity in a given year. Each activity card was mounted under a target year for accomplishment. A key to the strategy boards is that they are flexible. The project activity cards are wued, mad an wily be moved as economic forces or new oppOrtunitfes dictate. This makes it truly a working plan - a process which is constantly reviewed and updatea In May 1989, the respectlve Boards or Councils of the seven institutions attended a 21/7-day retreat at Myrtle Beach to review the preliminary plan. The keynote speaker was Mayorloe Riley of Charleston. He said he was unaware of any other community in the nation that had undertaken a planning process as ambitious as "Empowering the Vision." Riley encouraged he community to think 810. "One of the greatest sins is to fear to be really ambitious for our community," be said. He also old the participants that they were "the founders of the Rock Hill of the future." With this inspiration, all of the Boards/Councils reviewed the plan and model!. Each institution adopted a resolution that conceptually endorsed the plan, and stated it would consider funding the activities as a part of is annual budget process, I I i a Aber the retreat, the preumnary planvas yaced on display in dowmtown Rock niNot, ~y~I Iko I fmatns i, Cl~oan . 2,000 auzens v1ewW the plan and commented fa orabiy.

C ULTURAL C ITY ■ The Citys Srst public art project. the Gate Way, was dedicated in April 1991. Interttationaily known artist Audrey Flack was commissioned to make the four 13-foot winged bronze CNitas statues that represent Rock Hill citizens' vision for their city as it moves into the 2Istcentury, Each statue holds a different symbol representing 14 thec %ciommitmenttoequeation(nameofknowledge),I and culture (sursof inspiration), u n (gears of industry and commerce), and function. or uulities/energy (lightning bolts). The statues form the corners of the city s Gate Way, with two 75-yeareld Masonic colurntts representing jtjLlma and elaborate landscaping represent- ing the commitment to gardens and greenery. Ms. Flack says Civitaa "is the personification" of Rock Sill, while Mayor Rhea calls the Gale Way "the cotnmuniNs gih to itseit" • Winthrop College recently expanded and renovated its art gallery as part of a S9-milliots facility renovation plan. • Winthrop College hosted the Palmetto Dramatic Association High School Drama Festival, bringing together :50 students from 19 high schools. ■ The Rock Hill Arts Council has been awarded 5150,000 from the National Endowment for the Arts for a new arts centre downtown.

Under "Business City," Specific goals were to develop a 100-auae Industrial park let 1994, and lZacre parks in each of 1996 and 1998. However, the 700 acres of very attractive property along the river (400 of which are to be used for a business park) became available in 1990, so the Economic 1 elopment corporation bought it. fulfilling the 10-year goal in one year. ff A separate example of the plan's flexibility, and proof that this is a citizen based pun. is that "Empowering the Vision" had Initially outlined plans for a new arts centre downtown.

R,tn ~I- - rfr~ The fact that these cnzerts felt empowered to pitch their own idea rot chang,na the p7aE shotiz the 'ece7~r'~olvement and ownership that they feel in this blueprint for their future. ~~~f L E S S O N S L E A R N E D Rock Hill has learned much from its planning process wiled "Empowering the Vision." Some of those lessons are relayed here, in hopes that other mayors and city governments might benetit from Rock Hill's cxpenence. 1. Use the planning process to eduatq empower and market. The greatest value in having a common vision is the opportunar4 to educate the citizenry and to build a consensus and constituency for implementing the plan. Another opportunity: making people feel they have the power to affect change in their community, The Rock Hill plan represents the concept ofleade rsh p as a means of empowering other people, not controlling them. Also, the best markeling tool a city can have is an exciting plan with a committed, enthusiastic following. Rock Hill's plan is used not only to gain media attention, but to market the city to business and industrial prospects, and professional re ruin. Local hospital officials and industries trying to recruit-.Ice presidents and other high-level managers have relied heavily (and successfully) on "Empowering the Vision" to attract prospects. 2. Remember that the process for planning Is more Important than the produet If the process isn't eight. it doesn't really maser what the plan is. It is crucial to involve the peopleinstitutions who are actually spending money in your city, and help them realize that if their priorities are geared toward a common vision, they as make a huge difference without spending additional money. For instance, all of the different entities were doing landscaping of some sort Under "Empowering the Vision," there's a common plan for landscaping the city over 10 years. if the plan is followed, the result is consistent and beautiful landcaping, But if the scvea entities continued to do it piecemeal, it would not look as cohesive. Another example is street lighting. The plan downtown calls for historic lighting; since the city, county-owned library, churches and others were going to have to invest in new tights anyway, why not all plan together and buy the same light fixtures that highlight the historic aspect of the downtown and make it look much more like a community? No single institution spends any more money than it had planned, but the city looks better, 3. Be prepared roe public participation. That means doing your homework People are busy these days and don't like to have their time wasted. Also, most people are not trained planners, nor are they born with planning skills. So it's important that staff take responsibility for preparing the public to participate by doing the research ahead of time, and preparing chars and graphs to illustrate trends and other information participants wtli need to make decisions. Provide the direction from the beginning, and groups won't be left floundering and trying to figure out what they're supposed to do. a. Push people beyond their normal roles, One reason Rock Hill chose themes to represent its goals was to not only uke advantage of citizens' expertise, but to push them beyond their field to look at the bigger picture. For example. Realtors or engineers are accustomed to approaching challenges in a particular way, but if you give them a broader theme say historical preset'ation or utilities they'U stretch to look beyond one neighborhood's home values or the size of one sewer line to a communiry•wide perspective. Also, diversify the groups. The Cultural City theme group involved not only artists, but people who were able to recognize the marketing possibilities in wand the types of poUtial pitfalls to avoid. The artists, of course, helped educate others about the symbolic value of art 1. Don't dwell on moneyas the outaeli, When a huge plan is unveiled, the first questions aN.ays are: how much does it cost. and where is the money coming from? But a tutal amount, while it makes for good headlines, scares people off The truth is, if it's a good idea and people want it, they will find a way to pay for it Further, these often are proje-s that are going to be done, anyway. If they are put in context of other things that are happening in your cry, they will seem like necessary and realistic accomplishments. A huge price tag at the outset will make it sound like all new money u needed, rather than money that would have been spent regardless. 6. Have successful projects early In the process. Your reputation begins when you begin. The public has very little tolerance for longterm projects with lag time, so make sure some early projects an be built relatively quickly so that people an see results. These projecs will offset others, like roads or utilities, which tend to take a long time with little to show (i.e., eogineer• ing and environmental studies, right-0f-way acquisitions). VandiNn Creative leadership can make a difference in forting pnvate public pannemhips. It %Jw0a1WKL r;an as un'xorkable; of is easy to say that all of these dif.erent institutions will never site eye vt }e. But by b t nmc and o eitfye in one's approach to leadership for snsian:e, by malung the enure process ali•tnduswe, paracip~ iorv`ri~l, i~ by dev~hn energy to It one ran little by little make a difference and see results.

Ste also worked slowly, approaching one entity at a time, When .40 yam crmmttted to the concept, they could bring in the third; ti;dse three then created enough excitement to draw in the fourth, and ' io en. Final;y, she was careful to ensure that each institution received public credit for its involvement in the process. 4. Other Important lessons: Crte group must surface as the idea's champion and be willing to go the extra mile in maintaining the momentum of the program, either througn a larger financial commitment or by taking responsibility for coordinating and communicating doel• apments. ■ the plan must be very visual, to help citizens fully grasp the concept. Three dimensional models and computer-gener. r atcd images cost money, but it's money well spent because the models allow everyone to see the "future" in the same wav. .also, they are easily changed as circumstances change. ■ It also is important that the plan be (Imble, and easily updated, again to represent progress and changes. a One reason for the success of "Empowering the Vision" is that these was a focal point for the Picini in that one building housed all the Ideas and strategy boards. This building was open to the public for review and comment, and provided a major communication link berween the agencies and the citizens. ■ Involve the press, not only as reporters and editors but as active participants in the planning process. A final lessons ' share what you have. Many visitors to Rock Hill have seen "Empowering the Vision," and have taken home ideas for their own city, In return, they have shared with Rock Hill the types of projects and programs their cities are undertaking. The beauty of "Empowering the Vision" is that it is a simple but solid planning process which can sere a$ a model for other cities around the country or even around the world. titan-v cities face the same challenges and have the same types of public and private agencies busily making their own plans for the future, as Rock Hill did. ' ByJoining together these institutions, and finding new ways to forge partnerships between the public and private sectors, any city can summon its own vision and shape its own future. 1 r i 1 f i THE INNOVVION GROUPS Agft No ~penda R & D Notes 59 • MARCH, 1993 Enclosed is the article that you requested from our current reports.
