1. The Council convened into Executive Session to discuss
legal matters, real estate, personnel and board appointments.
More specifically to hold a discussion on a proposal to be
submitted to the Denton Humane Society for the construction and
operation of an Animal Adoption Center/land-lease negotiations.
No official action was taken.
2. The Council held a discussion of possible annexation
of Rector Subdivision described as a 15.234 acre tract located
in the B. Burleson Survey No. 65 and the J. Ayers Survey No. 2
and situated west of 1-35 at and north of the intersection of
Rector Road.
Cecile Carson, Urban Planner, stated that this was a plat
submitted in the ETJ which had a potential batch plant on it
near 1-35. The batch plant was considered temporary but the
project would take approximately 4 years. It also could not be
determined if the plant would be removed after the project was
completed. Input from the neighbors was that they wanted the
City to annex them. Water and sewer services were not
scheduled for that area until the year 2000 unless a major
development occurred in the area. Staff had no firm
recommendation except for the possibility of further study and
a cost detail.
Mayor Pro Tem McAdams asked if the project was for four years
and the property was annexed, could the plant continue.
Carson's replied that if the plant were to shut down for a
period of 6 months, it then could not start up again. The
plant could also not be expanded if it were annexed into the
City.
Council Member Boyd asked if there was a plant there now.
Carson's replied that currently there was a State Highway
Department trailer on the property and a slab for a workshop
building but no plant. There was a possibility that the batch
plant would be built on a different site and that only the
workshop would be at that location.

Consensus of the Council was to continue with the annexation
process.
3. The Council held a discussion of proposed annexation
of Mingo Industrial Tract Subdivision described as a 6.6 acre
tract located in the Morreau Forest Survey No. 417 at the
northeast corner of Mingo Road and North Cooper Creek Road.
Cecile Carson's, Urban Planner, stated that this was a
voluntary annexation. It was an annexation and zoning request
for a planned development with retail and residential uses.
Staff recommended further study for annexation.
Consensus of the Council was continue with the annexation
process.
4. The Council held a discussion of zoning requests for
830.2 acres (Lakeview) and 425.4 acres (Southview).
Cecile Carson's, Urban Planner, stated that the Lakeview
property was annexed approximately one year ago but had not
been zoned. The existing planned development was for 690 acres
with 9,571 units. The proposed planned development would have
830 acres with 4,377 units. The Southview annexation consisted
of two proposals with some Corps of Engineers land between the
parcels.
This discussion was for information only ana no action was
taken.
5. The Council received a report on the scheduling of the
new fire station construction.
John Cook, Fire Chief, reported that PTI Firemaster had
identified two locations that were in need of a new fire
station, one in the North Lakes area and the other near Lillian
Miller Parkway. Both stations could not be built at the same
time due to funding restraints for manpower. Cook proposed to
begin construction of the station in the North Lakes area first
for economic reasons - the City already owned the land. After
that station was completed, construction would immediately
begin on the Lillian Miller station.
Consensus of the Council was to proceed as proposed.
The Council then reconvened
complete discussions
action was taken.

Public Hearings

(Q-67)
The Mayor opened the public hearing.

David Ellison, Assistant to the City Manager, gave a brief
overview regarding Gregg Street. Gregg Street was a standard
City of Denton residential street with 50' of dedicated
right-of-way and approximately 20-22' of improved surface, back
of curb to back of curb. The portion dealing with the
quitclaim was approximately 365' in length from Ponder to
Fulton, adjoining property on both sides belonging to Grace
Temple Baptist Church. The distance from W. Oak to Congress,
the next through street if that portion of Gregg Street was
quitclaimed and abandoned, was approximately 1200'. The
distance from Gregg Street to Congress was approximately
1000-1100'. As a point of comparison, the City of Denton's
Subdivision and Land Development Regulations stated that the
maximum length of a new block would be 1000' and the typical
length of a block was approximately 400-500'. In June 1980,
Grace Temple Baptist Church first approached the City of Denton
about building a new sanctuary. The sanctuary required 188
parking spaces based on a seating requirement of 1 space per
every 3 persons to be accommodated. The Church went to the
Board of Adjustment and requested a variance of that parking
requirement. The Board of Adjustment determined in June of
1980 that it would grant a variance of those required parking
spaces with the condition that by a 3 year period 2/3 of the
required parking would be provided and within a 6 year period,
all of the required parking would be provided. In the interim
between that point and today, some additional parking was
provided by the Church. Additional land was required and the
Church became quite aggressive in plans to move forward to
comply with the parking requirement as well as to comply with
some of their master plan needs for increased educational
space. Currently the Church had about 160 spaces of the
required 188 spaces. The Church wanted to provide the City
with the parking but they felt they needed control of Gregg
Street to meet with their building plans. The Church came to
the Development Review Committee in May 22, 1983 and requested
that the City recommend to the Planning and Zoning Commission
and the City Council that the street be abandoned. Staff
response at that time was not favorable because at that time
the Church did not have firm plans. In October 1983, the
Church again requested the Development Review Committee to
recommend abandonment with the same recommendation from the
Development Review Committee. In February, 1987, the Church
came back again to the Development Review Committee, this time
with additional parking and had acquired substantial property
and had a firm idea what they wanted to do with the street if
they were allowed to acquire it and had it abandoned. Two
additional meetings occurred and as of March, 1987, the general
consensus of the staff was that the Church had a point in
contending that the street was used to a significant degree by
152
City of Denton City Council Minutes
June 16, 1987
Page 7
people on church related business. Planning and Zoning
interjected the overall community interest. The Development
Review Committee recommended denial to the Planning and Zoning
Commission. The Planning and Zoning Commission referred the
matter to the Citizens Traffic Safety Support Commission which
recommended approval and subsequently the Planning and Zoning
Commission recommended denial to the City Council. Staff
presented an alternative to construct a new street at the
northern boundary of the Church's property. The Church did not
agree to the alternative due to financial obligations. The
City would be compensated for the abandonment of Gregg Street
at an assessed value of $32,000. There would be a straight
trade in the cost of right-of-way and only the construction
costs would be included in the alternative. Estimated
construction costs of the new street were $28,000 for a
standard 31' street and $24,000 for a 24' street which the City
Engineer felt would be adequate. An estimate was done for the
cost for maintenance on Gregg Street for the next 3-5 years.
That amount came to $1,500 - $2,000 and that amount was a
possible reduction in the cost of a new street.
Council Member Boyd asked if the appraisal took into
consideration the value of the improvements of the street.
Ellison replied that the appraisal did not take into account
the value of the improvements.
Roger Hollar, Associate Pastor of Grace Temple Baptist Church,
stated that the church wanted to come into compliance with he
parking requirements. The Church ha~ three goals with the
request for Gregg Street (1) safety of the children attending
the day care at the Church, (2) full compliance with the City
parking code, and (3) enhance the beauty and value of the
surrounding area. City traffic counts indicated that
approximately 50% of the traffic on Gregg Street was church
related traffic, 28-30% was related to University parking and
Historical Museum parking, and 20% was unrelated movement. He
felt that the majority of the opposition was a matter of
personal convenience reflected in the 20% unrelated traffic.
It did not justify moving Gregg Street to benefit so few
people. Hollar continued that in his opinion the Fire
Department would benefit with the closing of Gregg Street in
that at the present time, few large trucks could manage the
street and if the street were closed, the Church would provide
a fire lane for the Fire Department. If a new street were put
in, the Church would lose approximately 70 parking spaces.
Council Member Gorton asked if the Church did not own some
properties in the surrounding area and if so, would that not be
space for potential parking.
City of Denton City Council Minutes
June 16, 1987

Hollar replied that yes except that there were mortgages on
those notes and nothing could be done to the property until the
mortgages were paid off.
Council Member Hopkins asked Hollar if he was aware that if the
Council voted to give Gregg Street and if not build a new
street, the City would have to be paid for the street.
Hollar replied yes.
David Morton, Chairman of the Building and Ground Subcommittee
of the Long Range Planning Committee of Grace Temple Baptist
Church, asked the Council to allow those in the audience in
support of the request to stand and be acknowledged. He stated
that the abandonment of Gregg Street was primarily to allow the
Church to use the property it already had in a most effective
way.
Jack Gill, Long Range Planning Committee,- stated that the
Church was aggressively purchasing property in the area but if
the property was not for sale, the property could not be
bought. The Church needed parking now and needed paved
parking. Educational space was needed but the Church was not
ready to build at that time. Safety was needed for the
children at the day care when being dropped off and picked up.
Pat Bennett, 307 Ponder, spoke in opposition. She stated that
Gregg Street was the closest way to get to Welch and Hickory.
Gregg Street was well used. The neighborhood was a college
neighborhood, not a residential neighborhood which meant more
traffic in the area. Gregg Street was the only legal way to
get to Hickory and Welch. It was a well used street and a
needed street. She would be agreeable to an alternative street.
Mike Cochran spoke in opposition due to the fact that he uses
the street a lot. He suggested that if the safety of the
children at the day care was a problem, the Church might want
to find an alternative parking lot for drop-off and pickup. It
was reasonable for the Church to want to expand but not at a
disservice to others.
Diane Ricks spoke in opposition. She would not be in
opposition to closing Gregg Street if an alternative street
were available.
Gregg Edwards spoke in favor of the request. He further
explained the need for additional parking and why the Church
was opposed to the construction of a new street.

The Mayor closed the public hearing.

Bill Claiborne, Chairman of the Planning and Zoning Commission,
stated that the non-utility portion of the CIP was a
combination of two worlds - the principles and practices that
