for wastewater wholesale contracts. Nelson presented eleven
policies adopted by the North Central Texas Council of
Governments which represented an awareness to the concerns of
pollution to the water reserves in the north Texas area.
Cecile Carson, Urban Planner, stated that state legislation
required a 1000' minimum width for any annexation initiated by
a municipality. The only option that a city had in order to
lessen the area was to have voluntary annexation by a property
owner or other capes which dealt with jurisdictional
requirements and other municipalty's agreements. The proposed
annexation was the minimum width that the City could annex.
The field notes were prepared with a close boundary to the Elm
Fork of the Trinity River. A-SI extended 3 1/2 miles from the
existing City limits. Upon completion of that annexation,
which could be done on the same evening, annexation could
proceed with A-S2, which was a 1000' strip which connected to
that area and terminated at the dam. The Denton County
Appraisal District had stated that an individual could request
an agricultural exemption to property if it was used for
agricultural purposes. That was determined on a rate on
whether the property was improved or in a natural state.
Limitations were placed on voluntary annexations by new state
laws. The limitations stated that in any one twelve month
period, the City may not annex an area less than 1000' in width
that was farther than three miles from the City limits.
Property owners in A-S2 would not have the option for a
voluntary annexation unless the City waited until approximately
the same time next year to begin the process for the 2 1/2 mile
annexation to continue to the dam. ~ith the 3 mile annexation,
the ETJ of the City would be extended approximately one mile
north of the dam. As a municipality, the City would be able to
enforce its subdivision regulations. Eighteen property owners
were sent notices, with zero returned in favor and one in
opposition to the annexation request.
Council Member Boyd questioned if a calendar year meant until
1988 or 12 full months.
Carson replied 12 months.
Lloyd Harrell, City Manager, stated that the annexation
proposals be£ore the Council carried out the Council's stated
goal of trying to get to the Ray Roberts Dam site as quickly as
possible so that the City would have the ability to extend its
ETJ for a 3 1/3 mile area from that point and be able to apply
the City's subdivision regulations which would have a
beneficial impact on the water quality question as well as to
insure acceptable standards for development around the lake.
An alternative the Council might consider was to reduce the
1000' strip to a much lesser width with voluntary annexation.

Edwin Fulton~ Denton County Taxpayers Association, stated that
this was a broad area of land and if annexed into the City of
Denton as residences of the City, it could deprive the City
residents of police and fire protection. He was not sure if
the City had fire equipment to work in the area.
Albert Hughes spoke in opposition. He felt that the real
purpose of the annexation was to set-up for the "green belt".
He was concerned about a contract he had to cut timber on his
land.
Hal Jackson, representative for three land owners in the area,
stated that his clients opposed the City's taxation and did not
see any benefit to them. He would recommend to his three
clients to participate in the voluntary annexation if possible.
Jackie Fuller read a statement indicating that the annexation
was unnecessary. All of the reasons given by the City were or
could be controlled by the County. The annexation would
provide no benefits to the property owners involved.
Robert Donoval stated that he was in opposition of any
interference at all but would be in favor of the compromise
position of a voluntary annexation.
Bill Lynch stated that the annexation was not right. Part of
the annexation would go into Cooke County with the City's ETJ.
The Mayor closed the public hearing.
Mayor Stephens stated that the annexation was not dealing with
the "green belt" but rather water quality protection. He
stated that Mr. Hughes would not have a probl, em with the tree
contract. The annexation would only affect the property only
if it affected the water quality.
Council Member Hopkins stated that she wanted to reassure the
residents that the issue was not the "green belt" but rather
control of water quality in the area. She stated that there
had never been any indication that this annexation was
regarding the "green belt" and if she found out later that that
was the case, she would immediately resign.
Consensus of the Council was to proceed with the annexation.

when the Jane Marshall School applied for a building permit for
a temporary portable classroom building on property that the
school owned whick was north of the football field. When the
permit was applied for, it was discovered that the property was
zoned agricultural and that it was necessary to obtain a
specific use permit and plat the property before building
permits could be issued. Due to the time and expense involved
in platting and applying for the specific use permit, the Board
of the Jane Marshall School suggested placing the temporary
portable building on the Liberty Christian School property.
When that was suggested to the staff, it was discovered that a
specific use permit for a private school had not been
approved. The Planning and Zoning Commission voted to approve
the petition with a 5-0 vote with the conditions attached.
The following ordinance was considered:
