-The' City anticipates the ability to eliminate substandard housing currently in

the implementation of a Neighborhood Improvement Program, intensifying efforts
to correct dwelltngs which do not conform with existing codes.
The City's main objective by using these means is to offectivoly initiate
a program during the next period for the elimination of blighted areas. The
concentration of code enforcement and the proposes[ assistance to correct non-
conformance will be the City's principal toot for eliminating substandard housing
by renovation or demolition of structures. Also, the prevention of additional
deterioration in all areas of the city will be facilitated by rnore rigorous enforcement.
Enforcement of the Minimum Housing and Building Standards Code will be the
most important mechanism for tho City officials to help alleviato and terminate
blight. As enforcement of the Code continues, additional personnel with the
professional abilities necessary to properly enforce the City's codes and cooperate
with residents in the blighted areas to resolve tboir problems, will be added to file
staff. The Neighborhood Improvements Program %A11 be under the general direction
of tho Assistant City Manager in chargo of Governmental Projects. It will be his
rosponsibility to coordinate the various departments involved in carrying out the
program .
During the next period as the Neighborhood Improvement Program is developed
and procedures are formulated, the code enforcement departments will be enlarging
the scope of their activities for ac:hioving compliance. Also, other departments re-
sponsiblo for doveloping community facilities such as parks, traffic control systems
and strcetlighting improvements, are presently planning tho most fear,,lblo method for
implementation.
During the past twoyears, the City has initiated conniderable improvements
for its major blighted section, S.L. Denton. This area, is bounded by the Dallas
Highway on the west, agricultural land along its eastern border, vacant land to the
south and McKinney Street parallino the northern boundry.
Over $600, 000 of construction is presently in progress which will provide
paving with curb and gutter and utility relocation and service along most of the
streets in the area. The entire project is scheduled to be completed in 1970.
By the end of the next two year period, the City anticipates to have the
Neighborhood Improvement Program in operation. The Concentrated Code Enforce-
mont project when approved, will be the major tool for the City to frAtiate the
Improvements Program. A neighborhood facility will also be planned to house
activities to help meet the social and economic needs of tho area,
(attachment 5a)
The neighborhoods can be further distinguished by the land use in the area and the
condition of the structures located in each.
The conditions in the area are those that are typical of most blighted Negro
areas in Southern cities the size of Denton. The problem of blight were built in
at the inception of the area. The lack of building and housing codes, subdivision
and zoning regulations and their enforcement permitted the crcctton of shacks or
allowed originally sUindard structures to deteriorate below ticceptable standards.
Also, the low economic level of the residences resulted in inadequate surroundings.
The most predominate: characteristic of the retarded neighborhoods is the
presence of substandard housing. Throughout the entire 5.11, Denton Area, a
survey conducted in late 1967, shovr:d that only 19.6% of the 898 total structures
in the area meet the minimum standards of the City. A total of 305 or 33.96% were
considered to be substandard and 417 or 46,44% were in need of survey. renovation.
ExhibitsThe
level of deterioration within the area is apparent (see
23024,25)
Another common characteristic that was present in the area was the lack of
}paved streets and inadequate drainage and utilities. These conditions are being
elevkted through present construction projects.
The social and economic level of the area was studied and a report made on
conditions in the area in 1965. This report points out other deficiencies, in the
area that contributed to its being designated as the site for the first code Inforce-
ment project. (see Exhibit 0 ) The present plan to create a Neighborhood
Improvements Department, was selected as it was recognized that a coordinated
attempt would have to be mado to deal effectively with the many problems in the
area, Through the use of a concentrated code enforcement program, housing

The responsibility for the development of the city's masWr plan is'primarily that
of the City Planning and Zoning Commission, consisting of five citizens of the
community, who are appointed by the Dorton City Council. In addition to the
City Planner, the other departments of the City provide assistance on request.
In addition to its power to make, amend, extend and add to the master plan, the
Commission reviews elements of the capital improvements program annually ana
recommends projects to be completed over the next five year period.
Denton's first comprehensive plan was prepared by 1'rcese, Nichols & Endress,
and Caldwell and Caldwell, planning consultants in 1960. The plan was a
twenty-five year course of action for meeting the needs of the citizens in Denton
through 1985. Seven basic areas of study were Included In the Comprehensive
Plan.
Phase 1: Basic Studies
Phase IT: Land Use Study
Phase III: Thoroughfare Study
Phase 1V: Water, Sewage, Drainage Study
Phase V: Schools, Parks and Public: 13u1Idt%S

The City of Denton consults with the other affected governmental units in the
rlevelopment of both short and long range piano,.
The City of Donlon has given its support to a rccommendotion, resulting from
I
the Decisions for Denton Study (see Exhibit # ) that it governrental units
planning and coordinating board be established and meet regularly.
As recommended, the board would consist of the top officials of the City, County,
School district, Universities and Flow hospital to coordinate community planning
and services.
This bofird, when established, Is expected to greatly improve planning and ca-
ordination among the various govcrnrnenttil unit.: in Denton County. This board
would also work closely with the North Texas Council of Governments.
The City of Denton operates under the Council-Manager forum of gavcrmncnt. The
unification of authority and politiciil responsibility in the elected City Council
and the centralization of administralian responsibilities in an administrator
appointed by the City Council, are the tnost important factors which make the
Council-Manager form of government a functional opcratlotr. With a professional
administrator (City Manager) the City is able to operate more efficiently to co-
ordinate departmental activities and to eliminate duplication. The City Manager's
staff is composed of highly skilled clod trained perse)nnel with the ability to ad-
ministrilte their separate departmentspefficiently.

Thu Economic Base study as an investigation of the ec:rinomy of the Denton
area and what trends can be expected in th. future. Population Study was a com-
prehenslvc analysis of the previous populatlon growth in Denton. Population
forecast, direction and density of erowth were made to 1985 to prcvide,a base for
planning facilities to moot the needs.
Phase II:
The Land Use Study was a thorough analysis of the land area in Denton.
Recommendations of future land uses were made to indicate how different sections
in the City would develop and what controls the city could utilize to better guide
the expansion within Denton. Phase 11 also included a section on blighted con-
ditions in the City.
Phase• III:
The Thoroughfare Study was a projected traffic system, to meet the growing re-
quiremcnts of the City.
Phasn iV~
The Water, Sewerage, Drainage Study indicated where improvements were needed
and outlined methods to build a system that would provide these services,
Phase V:
Schools, Parks, and Public huildirigs was a corn prehclrsivc plan for future
public facilities. An analysis of potential problem areas and howcooperation
between agencies could possibly solve these problems was also included in the
report.

From the Comprehensive Plan, a major rive-year Capitzl Iri hrovements
Program was initiated and bonds were .sold to finance the projC.cis. All of the
proposed p-r.jects were completed cis planned, except whom- clifficultics could
not be resolved and would jeopzirdize an entire project.
In 1969, a Comprehensivo Plan revision was irilb,ated to update the 1960
.plan. This revision has been conducted by the City Staff, with orsistance from
other consultants. The revision should be completed within phi next three responsibility
four months and will serve as o basis for planning to 1994.
for revising and updating the Comprehensive Plan has rested on the Assistant City
Manager, Parks Deportment, Utilities Department, Finance Department and the
Community Development Department.
The City also employes Marvin Springer, an Urban Planning Consultant.
Presently, he is under contract to assist Denton to update and renew the master r
thoroughfare plan, land use study and economic base study. It Is ant[cJpatcd

Environmental Deficiencies.
The studies prepvrcd investigating the environment,)) and living
conditions indicate that an exf~cmely low standard of living is present in the
blighted areas of Denton, The lack of adequate housing, public facilities
and utilities resulting from an inadequate education and limited job opportu-
nities are considered to be the primary reason for the poor environmental con-
ditions. Within Southeast Denton, a survey showed that 80.995 of the dwell-
ings and structures are below standard. The majority of the dwellings were
built before the adoption of minimum codes and have never been improved to
meet the standards specified in the various rodoF. The overago"education
level, in 1965, for men was the 8th grade, and for women was the 9th grade.
Directly related to education is the income level of residents in the area.
Most of the residents in this area had an average annual income of $3, 000. ,
while the average for tho entlre City wat, in excess of $6,000., In 19G5.
(see Yxilibit 2r)
Other factors which contribute to the environmental level are in-
sufficient street lighting, open space, within blighted areas for recreation,
and unpaved streets. A recent investigation showed Denton to have approxi-
mately 167 miles of streets, of which 20 miles, or 1297 were unpaved. The
unpaved streets are primartly located in deteriorating area:„

Social Factors;
It is extremely difficult to identify and evaluate social and economic
factors which contribute to community--wide problems in a brlef summary.
A general survey of social and economic characteristics relating to
the total community was prepared in the Cc!mLeber,sivc Plan, 1'haiA Basic.
Studies, in Phase II, landuso, and a Survey C2rnrnitlra„1tc ,ort. 'these three
studies dive special attention to housing, income, family characteristics,

Denton's major zoning problems have been created by the City's
rapid giov.-ih In the past 10 yearn. As the City has oxpancded, older residential
areas have evolved toward commercial use. During thin, :31rw and limited land-
use succession, property owners in these areas have riot kept their h6Rle.s Up
to standards as a result of this enc-.;uchmcnt of commcreiail use. This has ro•-
sulteu in areas of incompatible land uses in several wens of the City.
The new zoning ordinance, Ja;,uary 1969, has atlcrnpied to meet this
problem by making provision for plenned development. The requests which
have boon made for rezoning since January have primarily boc n individual re-
quests fo: a different classification of usage. Compatibility with tU surrounding
properties has boon tho major consideration. for approval or disapproval since tho
passage of the new ordinance.
