Minutes July 06, 1993 CITY OF DENTON CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
July 6, 1993
The Council convened into the Work Session at 5:15 p.m.in the Civil
Defense Room.
PRESENT: Mayor Castleberry; Mayor Pro Tem Smith; Council Members
Brock, Chew, Cott, Perry, and Miller.
ABSENT: None
1. The Council convened into the Executive Session to discuss the
following:
A. Legal Matters -- Under Sec. 2(e), Art. 6252-17 V.A.T.S.
B. Real Estate -- Under Sec. 2(f), Art. 6252-17 V.A.T.S.
Ce
Personnel/Board Appointments -- Under Sec. 2(g), Art.
6252-17 V.A.T.S.
The Executive Session was not held during the Work Session.
2. The Council received a report and held a discussion regarding
proposed changes to the boards/commissions ordinance and gave staff
direction.
Lloyd Harrell, city Manager, stated that Council had asked that
this item be placed on a Work Session agenda for discussion
regarding current requirements for board/commission members and
possible changes to those requirements. A preliminary discussion
had indicated that Council did not want to make any changes but as
two members were not present for the last discussion, wanted full
council to consider the item.
Mike Bucek, Assistant city Attorney, stated that there were some
practices which the City had been doing for a number of years which
might not be enforceable due to a State law which would supersede
Denton's practice or a federal court interpretation which would
make enforcement difficult. An example would be the enforcement of
not being delinquent in taxes. While the City had a rule of not
being delinquent, there were other court decisions which seemed to
imply that those requirements might not be constitutional. The
conflict of interest section was also a difficult section as not
many cities had a charter provision which discussed conflict of
interest separate from the state statute.
Council Member Chew asked about removing the portion of Section 2-
61 relating to delinquent taxes. If it could not be enforced, why
have it in the provision.
Bucek replied that if the Texas Supreme Court had ruled directly on
a Texas case, it would be decided to take it out.

Mayor Castleberry asked if the section would apply as it had not
been challenged yet.
Bucek replied that it was not illegal to have the provision but it
might not stand if it were challenged.
Council Member Miller asked if there had been a case ruling
regarding an elected official where it had been determined that a
similar provision was not enforceable. The City's Charter had a
provision in which an elected official could not be in arrears of
payments to the City and that had been declared'non-enforceable.
Bucek indicated that he understood Council would like to change
Section 2-61 which would eliminate that Section.
council Member Miller asked about term limitations for
board/commission members. Was it in the ordinance or the Charter.
Bucek replied that it was in the ordinance.
Council Member Miller stated that Council had decided at previous
meetings, that term limitations would be followed.
Council Member Chew replied the term "generally" had been used.
Council Member Miller asked when the "general practice" would not
be followed.
Council Member Chew replied that it would be determined by the
circumstances and the board involved. He did not want to
unilaterally indicate that after three terms, an individual could
no longer serve.
Council Member Miller stated that if the "general practice" were
followed, those Council Members with a nomination in which the
member had served three terms had a very difficult situation
because a case could be made for an indispensable person on every
board.
Council Member Chew stated that there were some specific charter
requirements for some boards such as the Electrical Code Board and
the Plumbing and Mechanical Code Board. That type of situation
could cause a problem in filling positions on those boards.
Mayor Pro Tem Smith stated that she believed in term limitations
and felt it was important to have a large number of citizens serve
on City boards.
City of Denton City Council Minutes
July 6, 1993
Page 3
Mayor Castleberry stated that new applications had been received
for the Electrical Code Board at the recent seminar and he would
not be against term limitations.
Council Member Perry felt it would be important to leave some room
to maneuver and that the exception would be applied only if it were
in the strict interest of the city to do so.
Council Member Brock stated that she would have appreciated a term
rule for guidance this year as one of her nominations had lobbied
very hard to remain after his three terms served. If there were
three term limits for Council she could justify term limits for
boards/commission members.
Consensus of the Council was to change the ordinance language to
limit terms to three consecutive full terms with Council Members
Perry and Chew in opposition.
3. The Council received a report and held a discussion regarding
the O'Neil Ford ceremony of July 30 and 31, 1993 and gave staff
direction.
Mike Cochran, Chair of Planning Committee, stated there would be an
exhibit on July 30 at the Visual Arts Center honoring O'Neil Ford.
A ceremony would be held on July 31 at 10:00 a.m. with an
historical marker placed in the Courtyard of City Hall. Following
that there would be a symposium on the works of Ford in the Council
Chambers. A tour of Ford structures would be available during the
day and a reception would be held for the participants of the
ceremony. A suggestion had been made to have plaques installed on
the buildings noting that they were Ford buildings and a permanent
monument sign on the buildings to indicate that the City buildings
were designed by Ford. The Ford firm would design and donate the
signs for the City. Grants had been received to help with the
funding of the project and for the markers.
4. The Council received a report and held a discussion regarding
the selection of the Diversion Task Force members and gave staff
direction.
Harlan Jefferson, Director of Treasury Operations, stated that the
Council had approved a Diversion Task Force which identified the
members of the Task Force. There were four options which the
council could consider for member selection~ (1) th~ Council would
recommend, select and approve all members of the Task Force, (2)
staff would recommend members willing to participate and Council
would approve those recommendations, (3) staff would contact the
various agencies identified in the resolution and ask them to
8O
City of Denton City Council Minutes
July 6, 1993
Page 4
submit names for Council approval such as PTA, DISD, Denton County
Probation etc, and (4) Council would recommend names for the at-
large seats and the individuals for civic groups and community
organizations which would be 5 of the 19 members, staff would
contact the agencies named requesting names for the Task Force and
the City Manager would recommend names for the four city
departments names in resolution. Staff was recommending option 4.
If the Council desired, staff could be back in August with names
for Council approval.
Mayor Castleberry asked if the suggested list was satisfactory with
other members.
Council Member Cott suggested having more than one representative
from the student body as it would affect them the most. Perhaps
four representatives from that population and reduce the
representation from other areas. Representatives could be from the
student body of Ryan High, West High, Strickland and Calhoun.
Consensus of the Council was to proceed with option four and to
increase the student body representation to four members.
The Council convened into the Regular Meeting at 7:00 p.m. in the
Council Chambers of City Hall.
PRESENT: Mayor Castleberry; Mayor Pro Tem Smith; Council Members
Brock, Chew, Cott, Perry, and Miller.
ABSENT: None
1. Pledge of Allegiance
The Council and members of the audience recited the Pledge of
Allegiance.
2. The Council considered approval of the minutes of the Regular
Meeting of May 18, 1993, the Special Call meeting o~ May 25, 1993
and the Regular Meeting of June 1, 1993.
Smith motioned, Cott seconded to approve the minutes as presented.
On roll vote, Brock "aye", Cott, "aye", Miller "aye", Smith "aye",
Chew "aye", Perry "aye", and Mayor Castleberry "aye". Motion
carried unanimously.
3. citizen Report
A. The Council received a citizen report from Gene Lewis
City of Denton City Council Minutes
July 6, 1993
Page 5
regarding the smoking ordinance in view of recent EPA findings.
Mr. Lewis stated that Kroger had recently redesigned the store on
University and the designated smoking area was right in the
shopping area. New EPA reports indicated that secondary smoke was
a Class A carcinogen. Council needed to look at tke smoking
ordinance for possible revisions. Cigarettes caused a large number
of problems in society and should be curtailed. The present
ordinance was not working in some areas such as laundromats. He
felt it was worth looking at some revisions to the current
ordinance. He had a handout for Council indicating more
information on the EPA report.
Mayor Castleberry stated that Mr. Lewis would receive a call from
staff after Council had a chance to look at the material presented
to them by Mr. Lewis.
B. The Council received a .citizen report from Willie
Hudspeth regarding staff notification to him on a zoning issue and
the Council's negative reaction to development in southeast Denton.
Mr. Hudspeth stated that he had a concern regarding the process he
had had with the building of his new home. He felt that there was
an unwritten law or attitude regarding the citizens in southeast
Denton. An example was that several organizations had reported
that the street area on Prairie Street near the cement plant was
being polluted. He had checked on the area before coming to
Council and the runoff was still occurring. The main streets in
that area were not being taken care of and were in disrepair.
There was a creek area behind where he was going to build his home
and there were dead animals and trash in that creek. He had worked
hard with City staff and was frustrated that his agenda item on the
last Council agenda had been postponed and he had not received
notification before he came to the meeting. Council had been
notified about the Juneteenth celebration and only one Council
Member and the Mayor attended the event. He asked Council if
southeast Denton mattered to them.
Council Member Cott stated that Hudspeth had indicated four
problems to Council (1) refuse in roads and streams, (2) non-
attendance at the Juneteenth celebration, (3) a difficult time
building his home and (4) did southeast Denton matter to Council.
On the first problem, Council received a weekly report for
assistance from citizens and he requested Hud~pe~h report those
items to staff to be included in the next report. Regarding the
second problem of the Juneteenth celebration, he had been notified
that Council would be receiving specifics regarding events for the
day and they had not received that information. He requested more
82
City of Denton City Council Minutes
July 6, 1993
Page 6
details regarding the problems involved with building his home.
Regarding the fourth problem, southeast Denton meant as much to the
Council as the rest of the community.
Hudspeth replied that the area was made up of all races and the
common factor there was that they were low income residents in that
area.
Council Member Cott replied that the Martin Luther King, Jr.
Recreation Center, the COPS program, and a new school had been
initiated in the area. He did not understand what Hudspeth was
saying that the area was not important and asked him to give
specific areas to be addressed.
Council Member Brock stated that she had a prior engagement and
could not attend the Juneteenth events. She expressed concern about
being judged for attending or not attending only one date. She had
attended more events than just that one for the residents of that
area.
Council Member Miller stated that there was an implication that
Council's not attending the events showed a lack of interest in the
community. He and his family attended some of the events last
year. This year he did not attend as he was in Houston as a member
of the State Board of Directors for the Job Training Partnership
Act. The purpose of this Act was to provide summer employment and
training for the disadvantaged. He felt that attending or not
attending an event did not demonstrate interest in that community.
Hudspeth indicated that the Juneteenth celebration was very
important. Congressman Sarpolis had driven to Denton from Austin
to participate in the activities. He was the first elected
official other than Council Member Chew and Mayor Castleberry to
come to Juneteenth.
Council Member Perry indicated that last night spent he had spent
2 1/2 hours visiting all the parks in the City including those in
southeast Denton as he had done a number of times. The spirit
Hudspeth was after and the concern for that part of the community
was there. He had made those visits regularly to the parks.
Mayor Pro Tem Smith stated that to correct the record, she helped
judge the parade at Juneteenth and was on the Council at the time.
Hudspeth asked Council Member Perry if he got out of his vehicle
and talked to any of the people when he was touring the parks.
city of Denton City Council Minutes
July 6, 1993
Page 7
Council Member Chew replied yes and that he was with Council Member
Perry. They went to all of the parks and checked various areas of
the parks. This was the fourth or fifth time they had done this.
All of the Council except for Council Member Cott who was new had
attended one Juneteenth or another during the past years. He knew
that a utility crew had worked in the area of the cement.plant and
was constantly addressing the problem. He wanted to know where the
dead animals were so that that problem could be corrected.
3.1. The Council considered adoption of an ordinance abandoning and
vacating that certain street right-of-way easement on approximately
0.185 acres of land lying in the C. Poullalier Survey, Abstract
Number 1006, city of Denton, Denton County, Texas, and being part
of a tract of land from Robert A. Nichols, et al to Alan Goldfield,
et ux, recorded in Volume 2908, Page 534 of the Real Property
Records of Denton County, Texas; and reserving a utility easement
therein.
Frank Robbins, Executive Director of Planning, stated that this
item and the next were related. The next item was consideration of
the detailed plan to change the zoning from agricultural to planned
development. The Planning and Zoning Commission had reviewed and
along with staff recommended approval of the abandonment. If the
Council had questions or issues regarding the zoning or
abandonment, the Council might want to discuss those now. If the
Council wanted to hear the zoning case first, they might want to
wait until public hearing for the zoning case was over.
Council Member Chew suggested deferring this item until the Council
heard the zoning case.
Mayor Pro Tem Smith asked where the gate was going to be placed.
Robbins replied that once the abandonment and zoning had taken
place, the gate would be build across the street. The area would
no longer be a City street, it would be a private cul-de-sac.
Mayor Pro Tem Smith stated that it would not be straight away to
the cul-de-sac. It would meet the fences in the area.
Robbins replied correct.
Consensus of the Council was to delay consideration of this item
until after the public hearing was held for the next item.

4. Public Hearings
A. The Council held a public hearing and considered adoption
of an ordinance providing for a change from Agricultural (A) to
Planned Development (PD) Zoning District classification and Use
Designation for 6.427 acres of land located west of the
intersection of Pennsylvania Drive and Southmont Drive, and
immediately south of St. Mark's Catholic Church. Z-93-016 (The
Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval 5-1.)
Frank Robins, Executive Director for Planning, stated that this was
a zoning change from the agricultural district to planned
development and approval of the detailed plan. The detailed plan
was what was currently built and there would b~. no more development
than what was currently there. There might be some expansion of
the house to the southwest. The request was for the building of a
private cul-de-sac. The Planning and Zoning Commission had three
conditions for the proposal (1) the right-of-way had to be
abandoned by the Council, (2) there be an ideminification to the
City regarding the passage of public service vehicles through the
gate, and (3) the gate had to meet certain standards. Staff
reviewed the security gate specifications and had already approved
the design of the gate.
The Mayor opened the public hearing.
Bill Coleman, representing the petitioners, stated that this was
the culmination of two years of work dealing with the building of
a residence. There was a gate in the original plans and they
wished to replace that gate as there was not an adequate way to
protect property with a public cul-de-sac. They had complied with
all of the staff and public comments regarding the proposal. The
request would enhance the neighborhood and benefit all involved.
No one spoke in opposition.
The Mayor closed the public hearing.
The following ordinance was considered:

ACRES OF LAND LOCATED WEST OF THE INTERSECTION OF PENNSYLVANIA
DRIVE AND SOUTHMONT DRIVE, AND IMMEDIATELY SOUTH OF ST. MARK'S

OF $2,000 FOR VIOLATIONS THEREOF; AND PROVIDING FOR AN
EFFECTIVE DATE.
Brock motioned, Perry seconded to adopt the ordinance. On roll
vote, Brock "aye", Cott, "aye", Miller "aye", Smith "aye", Chew
"aye", Perry "aye", and Mayor Castleberry "aye". Motion carried
unanimously.
The Council returned to Item 3.1.
The following ordinance was considered:
NO. 93-118
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS, ABANDONING AND
VACATING THAT CERTAIN STREET RIGHT-OF-WAY EASEMENT ON
APPROXIMATELY 0.185 ACRES OF LAND LYING IN THE C. POULLALIER
SURVEY, ABSTRACT NUMBER 1006, CITY OF DENTON, DENTON COUNTY,
TEXAS, AND BEING PART OF A TRACT OF LAND FROM ROBERT A.
NICHOLS, ET AL TO ALAN GOLDFIELD, ET UX, RECORDED IN VOLUME
2908, PAGE 534 OF THE REAL PROPERTY RECORDS OF DENTON COUNTY,
TEXAS; RESERVING A UTILITY EASEMENT THEREIN; AND DECLARING AN
EFFECTIVE DATE.
Perry motioned, Chew seconded to adopt the ordinance. On roll
vote, Brock "aye", Cott, "aye", Miller "aye", Smith "aye", Chew
"aye", Perry "aye", and Mayor Castleberry "aye". Motion carried
unanimously.
B. The Council held a public hearing and considered adoption
of an ordinance rezoning the land in Planned Development No. 19
from a mixed use development to the following:
- Single Family 16 (SF-16) - 16.2 acres located at
the northwest corner of Teasley and Lillian Miller
and 136 acres located across Lillian Miller on the
east side, both north and south of the
Teasley/Lillian Miller intersection
- Office, O[c], with conditions - 4.7 acres located
City of Denton City Council Minutes
July 6, 1993
Page 10
on the east side of Lillian Miller, both north and
south of the "T" intersection with Teasley. Z-93-
010 (The Planning and Zoning Commission
recommended approval 6-0.)
Council Member Cott left the meeting with a potential conflict of
interest.
Frank Robbins, Executive Director for Planning, stated that this
was a case with three different districts involved. From the
Planned Development No. 19, 16.2 acres would be SF-16, 136 acres
from PD to SF16 and 4.7 acres to office with conditions. The
Consent Agenda had a preliminary plat for the first phase of
development which was the SF16 district. The platting process had
started and the staff report reflected a number of issues for
dealing with infrastructure. There would be 35' setbacks for all
of the property abutting Teasley Lane which was a condition of the
zoning. If Council had a problem with the zoning the item from the
Consent Agenda would need to be pulled as it would not be in
accordance with the planned development approved in the area. This
was a very large downzoning. The property was first zoned in 1984
for mixed use development and Council approved a plan in 1986.
With the proposed zoning, there would be a decrease of 13,543
intensity trips from what was currently allocated. The proposed
zoning was 3,868 intensity trips below the standard for the area.
There were some previous agreements between private parties with
respect to the wall between the property on the east side of
Teasley and Sundown Ranch to the south. In 1986, the Council
suggested that when the detail plan for this development was
submitted, that the wall be considered. A detailed plan was not
being considered at this meeting but rather conditioned office and
SF-16 zoning. Since 1990, the wall had been an issue and Council
had directed staff to work with potential landowners with some type
of City initiated zoning case. In January 1991, the detailed plan
was amended which was a strip center with an approved detailed
plan. If the wall became an issue during the public hearing, he
would give more details. Other buffering issues in the office
district included a Planning and Zoning commission recommendation
that there be a bufferyard on the northern and western boundaries
where the SF16 district was proposed. If property were used for
residential purpose a fence would be required if development
occurred next to residential areas.
The Mayor opened the public hearing.
Robert Reeves, representing Nations Bank which owned the property,
stated that they supported the Planning and Zoning Commission
recommendations. PD16 came before Council approximately two years
city of Denton city Council Minutes
July 6, 1993
Page 11
ago in a joint cooperative effort with the city of Denton for a
land exchange in order for the City to build a fire station and
library. There was a question of a wall several years ago since
the corner piece of property was in PD19 and was now in PD 16. He
wanted to make sure they were not obligated to build a wall across
the street. He requested that they not be encumbered.with that
obligation.
R. Von Beougher, engineer and surveyor on the project, stated that
he would answer any questions the Council might have regarding the
proposal.
Bill Esponiosa asked about the office area proposed. His concern
was that there was an area which was not mentioned. That area
appeared to be for multi-purpose use.
Robbins stated that the zoning request for straight SF-16. The
bottom lot was quite large and would probably be a church which was
allowed in the SF-16 district as was a school.
Espinosa stated that the entire area was SF16.
Robbins replied correct.
Donna Greeling stated that the term "probably or maybe" bothered
her in regards to the building of a church. Her husband spoke to
a surveyor that day and heard that a convenience store would be
built there.
Robbins replied that there was nothing in the district which would
allow for a convenience store in the proposal. Only homes or
offices could be built in the area. A church might be interested
in the area which would be allowed.
Council Member Miller asked if the large lot would be zoned SF16.
Robbins replied correct and since a neighborhood meeting, the
petitioner had done eliminated the neighborhood service proposal.
The Mayor closed the public hearing.
Council Member Chew asked where and when the wall would be erected.
Robbins stated that the condi%ion in the office district stated
that a wall would be built at the time the property was developed.
On a lot in which an office would be built, a bufferyard would be
built within that district along the boundaries. If the property
to the south were used for residential purposes then the landscape
City of Denton City Council Minutes
July 6, 1993
Page 12
ordinance would require that when that property was built, a 6'
fence would be built in the area.
Council member Miller asked if the bufferyard met the standards for
MXD. If residences were to the south, it would be only the area
adjacent to the office which would require the landscaping and not
the entire SF16.
Robbins stated that there was no provision in the proposed
ordinance or an MXD which would require SF16 next to agricultural
or SF16 next to a training racetrack to build a buffer.
Council Member Brock stated that in Robbins' presentation regarding
the original discussions of the wall, he had indicated that the
discussions had been between private parties. The earlier
discussion regarding a wall on the entire southern boundary was not
relevant to this case.
Robbins replied that it was not part of the conditions.
Council Member Brock stated that it was a part of a planned
development which was no longer viable.
Robbins replied correct.
Mayor Pro Tem Smith asked Robbins to restate what could be in the
southern most section of the proposal.
Robbins read the list of uses for SF16.
The following ordinance was considered:
NO. 93-120
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS, REPEALING PLANNED
DEVELOPMENT (PD) NO. 19 ADOPTED BY ORDINANCE 84-109, BY
REZONING 4.706 ACRES OF PROPERTY LOCATED ON THE EAST SIDE OF

CONDITIONS; AND REZONING 16.205 ACRES LOCATED ON THE NORTHWEST
CORNER OF TEASLEY LANE AND LILLIAN MILLER PARKWAY AND 135.986
ACRES ON THE EAST SIDE OF LILLIAN MILLER PARKWAY, NORTH AND
SOUTH OF THE INTERSECTION WITH TEASLEY LANE TO SINGLE FAMILY

$2,000 FOR VIOLATIONS THEREOF; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE
DATE.

Page 13
Brock motioned, smith seconded to adopt the ordinance. On roll
vote, Brock "aye", Miller "aye", Smith "aye", Chew "aye", Perry
"aye", and Mayor Castleberry "aye". Motion carried unanimously.
Council Member Cott returned to the meeting.
C. The Council held a public hearing to consider the final
replat of the eastern half of Lot 7 and all of Lot 8, Block 3,
Wattam Addition; into Lot SR. The .758 acre tract was located at
the northwest corner of Collins and Welch Streets. (The Planning
and Zoning Commission recommended approval 6-0.)
Frank Robbins, Executive Director for Planning, stated that this
was the final step before a building permit for the property. The
property was zoned planned development which was approved by
Council in 1993. The public hearing was required as State law
indicated that if property were zoned or deed restricted for one or
two units per lot or less in the last five years, there had to be
a public hearing. This was for the Sigma Chi fraternity which was
in accordance with the Subdivision and Land Development
Regulations.
The Mayor opened the public hearing.
Jay Minton stated that he was in favor of the proposal.
available for questions if needed.
He was
Jack Vaughn stated that he was in opposition to the proposal. He
shared a common property line with the proposal. This was a single
family neighborhood with some changes over the years and he felt
that the single family integrity of the neighborhood should be
maintained if possible. There was a significant amount of traffic
and congestion in the area and the construction of the meeting hall
would only increase the trash and noise in the area. This would
not be an addition to a single family neighborhood and felt that
there had to be a better place for this in the city rather than in
a single family neighborhood.
Council Member Cott asked if it were stated that there would be
control of trash and noise and stated control of parking, would Mr.
Vaughn have a problem with the proposal.
Vaughn stated that he would still be against the proposal and
wanted to preserve the single £amily neighborhood. Thi~ wa~ a
neighborhood which was in transition but was still a single family
neighborhood. He was not convinced this organization would make a
suitable neighbor.
City of Denton City Council Minutes
July 6, 1993
Page 14
Council Member Cott stated that if there was too much traffic, it
could be controlled as could too much trash and noise. This was
not a dorm, only a meeting hall.
Vaughn stated at a meeting could take place at any hour and asked
if the hours of a meeting could be controlled.
Robbins replied that he did not have all the restrictions with him
but that there were restrictions on hours of operation. Zoning had
already been approved and Council was really only looking at where
the lot lines would be. The use was already approved.
The Mayor closed the public hearing.
Cott motioned, Chew seconded to approve the final replat. On roll
vote, Brock "aye", Cott, "aye", Miller "aye", Smith "aye", Chew
"aye", Perry "aye", and Mayor Castleberry "aye". Motion carried
unanimously.
D. The Council held a public hearing to consider the
preliminary and final replats of Lot 4, Block A of the Minter
Addition, plus approximately 3.36 acres of unplatted land; into Lot
4R, Block A. The 3.589 acre site was located on the northern
terminus of Newton Street, approximately 450 feet north of its
intersection with Wilson Street. (The Planning and Zoning
Commission recommended approval 6-0.)
Frank Robbins, Executive Director for Planning, stated that the
DISD had withdrawn its opposition to plat consideration and Council
could continue with the public hearing if it desired to do so. A
deed restriction in the zoning required a public hearing.
Council Member Miller stated that the zoning had been approved and
Council was considering the plat.
Robbins replied that there was no zoning consideration. Only the
development. There was a lot created in two separate districts.
The Mayor opened the public hearing.
Willie Hudspeth stated that he had been trying to get his home
started since May with much frustration in trying to do this
procedure. He and his family had been saving for this house for 22
years. The location was one where there was a jail, a dog pound,
and only recently a school. He hoped that officials would take
notice of those who were trying to put back in to the area. He had
learned through the process that an individual needed to learn how
the system worked. He would ask the EPA for information on what
City of Denton City Council Minutes
July 6, 1993

was in the creek behind this site.
No one spoke in opposition.
The Mayor closed the public hearing.
Chew motioned, Perry seconded to approve the preliminary and final
replat. On roll vote, Brock "aye", Cott, "aye", Miller "aye",
Smith "aye", Chew "aye", Perry "aye", and Mayor Castleberry "aye".
Motion carried unanimously.
5. Public Requests
A. The Council considered a request for a noise exemption
for the Pro Youth Rodeo Association at the North Texas State
Fairgrounds on Saturday July 10, until 12 midnight.
Catherine Tuck, Administrative Assistant, stated that this was a
request from the Sanger Chamber of Commerce for a noise exemption.
There had been discussions with the Fair Association and the
neighborhood regarding the noise problem. The North Texas Fair
would have modifications to the rodeo area sound system in time for
the Fair.
H. V. Goss was against the exemption to the noise ordinance.
Approval had been given to the Fair Association on several
occasions for exemptions to the noise ordinance. If this was going
to continue, then why have the Fair go through this.
Rev. Brent Anderson stated that the church was not opposed to the
Youth Rodeo as this was what the Fairground was for. He was
concerned about the midnight time frame. He asked Council why
there needed to be a noise ordinance if Council was always going to
grant exemptions. Great progress had been made with the Fair
Association regarding neighborhood problems. He was concerned with
midnight exemptions. He asked Council limit the exemptions they
granted.
Gene Truss stated that the Neighborhood Association would like to
stay on the record to being opposed to noise exemptions at the
Fairgrounds. Constructive conversations had occurred between the
neighborhood and the Fair Association and had identified ways to
reduce nuisance factors with events at the Fairgrounds. They were
all working on ways to hold events at the Fairgrounds without
causing nuisances to the neighborhood.

July 6, 1993
Page 16
Council Member Cott asked Truss for a suggestion of times for the
two events. What were the main problems - the time, noise, or
traffic.
Truss replied that noise was the main problem. The neighborhood
was striving to be cooperative with the Fair and they needed their
cooperation to make sure nuisances did not happen. For example,
the Fair could use the east side of the facility for parking and
the west side for events which would put them away from the
residences.
Council Member Perry felt that it was not unreasonable to ask the
event to stay closer to the limits of the noise ordinance.
Midnight might be the closing hour but there would still be noise
in the area for at least another hour. He suggested moving the
time to 10:30 p.m. so that the area would be cleared in a
reasonable time frame.
Perry motioned, Cott seconded that the extension be granted until
10:30 p.m. in order to keep the request closer to the limits of the
ordinance.
Mayor Castleberry stated that Sanger had requested this site with
an alternate site in Saginaw and would be a family affair.
Council Member Miller asked if the event had been held here before.
Tuck replied yes.
Council Member Miller asked for the reason for the 12:00 p.m.
request.
Tuck replied that she did not know and that no one was at the
meeting from the Sanger Chamber of Commerce.
Council Member Miller felt that there was not enough information on
the issue. The noise ordinance was written with provisions for
variances. There was a Fairground in the community and that had to
be dealt with. It was a county fairground and Sanger was in Denton
County. He questioned if the exemption were approved to 10:30
p.m., would it defeat the purpose to having the rodeo in Denton.
Council Member Cott stated that a vote would be a direct indication
that there needed to be a conclusion on the issue. It was time for
the families in the area and for the Fair Association to reach a
conclusion on the issue.
City of Denton City Council Minutes
July 6, 1993
Page 17
Truss replied that there were some events held in the rodeo arena
which the neighbors did not even know were going on. Last weekend
there was an event without a variance and a prior event did not use
the public address system. He anticipated working well with the
Fair Association regarding the neighborhood problems. Perhaps the
Fair could use smaller equipment for events.
Tuck stated that the noise ordinance dealt with disturbing persons
of ordinary sensibilities particularly between the hours of 10
p.m.- 7 a.m. and anytime on Sunday. An exemption would be
necessary only during the hours mentioned. Generally scheduling
was the time factor for the rodeo in order to continue with the
loudspeaker.
Mayor Castleberry felt that a variance until 10:30 p.m. was not
significant.
On roll vote of the motion to grant an exemption until 10:30 p.m.,
Brock "aye", Cott "aye", Miller "nay", Smith "aye", Chew "aye",
Perry "aye", and Mayor Castleberry "nay". Motion carried with a 5-
2 vote.
B. The Council considered a request for a noise exemption
for the North Texas Auto Fair at the North Texas State Fairgrounds
on Sunday, July 18, from 12 noon to 6:00 p.m.
Catherine Tuck, Administrative Assistant, stated that this request
was for a noise variance request for the Sunday restrictions.
Council Member Perry asked if the event would require a large
loudspeaker system.
Tuck replied that there would be a band with loudspeakers in
addition to the auto event.
Council Member Perry asked if this would disturb church services.
Tuck stated that Mr. Everitt indicated that they would not want to
interfere with church services.
Mayor Castleberry indicated that Bryan Everitt had completed a
Speaker Card but did not wish to address the Council. His card
indicated that amplifiers would be used only for certain areas of
the fairgrounds.
Perry motioned, Chew seconded to grant the exemption.
City of Denton City Council Minutes
July 6, 1993
Page 18
Council Member Cott asked if all events at the Fairground came
through the Fair Association.
Tuck felt that there would have to be some type of agreement to use
the grounds. The Fair Association was requesting individuals to
contact the City for an exemption.
Council Member Cott suggested that the
Association update rules together as it
ordinance.

blanks in the ordinance for the cost of the zones. At its June 15
meeting, Council had approved fees, however, the ordinance passed
on a 3-2 vote. There was a discussion regarding four votes to

On roll vote, Brock "nay", Cott "nay", Miller "aye", Smith "aye",
Chew "aye", Perry "aye", and Mayor Castleberry "aye". Motion
carried with a 5-2 vote.
8. Resolutions
A. The Council considered approving a resolution
establishing and creating a special citizens advisory committee to
provide recommendations regarding a possible additional sales tax
to reduce the property tax.
Catherine Tuck, Administrative Assistant, stated that Council had
considered this item at its planning session. Council desired to
create a citizens committee to provide for the study of a possible
sales tax amendment. There were several blanks in resolution for
the number of individuals on the committee and the number each
Council Member would nominate. There was also a blank when the
committee would bring its report back to the Council which was
important for when the Council might want to hold the election.
Dates for the election would the third Saturday in January, the
first Saturday in May, the second Saturday in August, the first
Tuesday after the first Monday in November.
Mayor Pro Tem Smith asked Tuck to review the time frame to
implement the tax.
Tuck replied that the date was always October 1st. Any election
date would be appropriate. She also mentioned that the resolution
indicated that the committee would engage an expert in the
financial field to review the economic impact on various groups in
the community.
The following resolution was considered:
NO. R93-042
A RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING AND CREATING A SPECIAL CITIZENS
ADVISORY COMMITTEE TO PROVIDE RECOMMENDATIONS REGARDING A
POSSIBLE ADDITIONAL SALES TAX TO REDUCE THE PROPERTY TAX; AND
PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.

Brock motioned, Smith to approve the resolution. On roll vote,
Brock "aye", Cott, "aye", Miller "aye", Smith "aye", Chew "aye",
Perry "aye", and Mayor Castleberry "aye". Motion carried
unanimously.
Mayor Castleberry asked for a number of committee members. Would
the Council want to appoint two members per Council Member plus the
entire Council appoint a chair.
Consensus of the Council was to have 15 members, two from each
council member and the Council would appoint a chair.
Mayor Castleberry asked for a possible election date.
Mayor Pro Tem Smith felt that the November date would be too soon
and suggested either January or May.
City Manager Harrell stated that a May election, if this election
could be separate from the Council election, would save election
costs which otherwise would have to be assumed. The January date
would put a distance between the Council election and this
election. Typically results in a January were not good and was not
a good month to hold a sales tax election.
Mayor Castleberry stated that if the election were in May, the
effective date of the sales tax would be October 1, 1994.
City Manager Harrell replied correct that any election date would
have an effective date of October 1, 1994.
Council Member Cott recommended a January election.
Council Member Perry felt January would not be a good month.
Council Member Miller felt that May might be a good month. It
would be too great a rush to do the election in November and
January was not good time either.
Council Member Brock felt that this issue might become a major
issue of a election campaign. There were many other issues to look
at during an election campaign. She was concerned that it might
skew the election.
Council Member Chew agreed with Council Member Brock.

on October 15, 1993, that the Committee be composed of 15
individuals two each presented by Council and the chair appointed
by the entire Council and that the election be held January 16,
1994. On roll vote, Brock "aye", Cott, "aye", Miller "aye", Smith
"aye", Chew "aye", Perry "aye", and Mayor Castleberry "aye".

Mayor Pro Tem Smith asked when the Council would present names for
approval.

15, 1993.
City Manager Harrell suggested that the members be nominated the
first meeting in August.
9. The Council received nominations for the City's Boards and
Commissions.
The Council nominated individuals to the City's Boards and
Commission as indicated in Attachment A.
10. The Council received an update on the Vision for Denton-21st
Century Project. (Council Members Brock and Miller)
Council Member Brock presented minutes of the June 23rd meeting of
the project cabinet which indicated some of their considerations of
projects and schedules. On July 19-20 Joe Landford would be
speaking to the project cabinet regarding the visioning project.
Several committees were already in progress. One was to locate a
place for a vision room, the publicity committee had started work
and there was a committee to work up a data bank for volunteers as
well as a community outreach subcommittee which was working on
ideas to get the community involved. They were also working on a
speaker's bureau and groups to address. There would be an
information packet for speakers so that all speakers would have the
same information plus a folder for volunteer information.

Council Member Miller stated that the kick-off date had been
tentatively set for Sunday, October 24, 1993 at 1:30 p.m. This
would involve 3-3 1/2 hours in order to discuss the process and the
future of Denton.
11. Staff Direction
Council provided staff direction on the following item:
A. Major Budget Issues Report
Ken Gold presented information to Council regarding budget
information. This information addressed the inequity in civil
service raises as compared to other city employees as well as the
difference in TMRS pensions. Staffing at the fire stations was a
continuing problem.
City Manager Harrell stated that he had three items for Council:
(1) Under separate cover, information had been given to Council
which addressed Council's questions from the previous meeting.
(2) Recommendation from the Human Services Committee. The
Committee had given Council recommendations with priorities and
asked if Council were going to reduce the amount funded, that they
be given a chance to reprioritize the agencies for allocation.
Last year, after the major budget issues had been presented, the
new amount of money was sent back to Human Services Committee and
they reallocated the money. If Council felt comfortable with the
amount proposed in the budget, that could be taken to the
Committee. If the Council were not comfortable, a determination
could be made later in the process. Staff had recommended an
allocation which would approximate an increase that other
departments were receiving.
Council Member Chew suggested waiting until they were further into
the budget before making these types of decisions.
Mayor Castleberry stated that he was uncomfortable proceeding at
this time.
Council Member Cott asked if there was something that needed to be
done now.
City Manager Harrell stated that he was trying to follow the
Council's past practices. At some point, prior to the time the
Council formally adopted budget, the Committee had requested an
opportunity to reprioritize the allocations to the various agencies
10 1

Page 25
rather than the Council doing that. There was time needed to do
that process.
Consensus of the Council was to delay consideration until further
in the budget process.
(3) Recommendation regarding ambulance service 2 Harrell
suggested increasing the fee now rather than wait until end of the
budget process. He asked if there was Council support to prepare
an ordinance to put the fee increase in effect.
Council Member Chew felt that it would be difficult to increase
fees to Denton citizens until after an increase had been made on
the fee to smaller cities. The City was subsidizing too much for
the smaller cities.
city Manager Harrell stated that if the fee were raised, it would
be raised for everyone. Denton citizens and small cities alike.
Council Member Chew felt that there was a lot of subsidizing and
there was a need to make it more equitable between the citizens and
the contract cities.
Mayor Castleberry asked Council Member Chew if he were suggesting
that the outside fees be greater than in the City.
Council Member Chew replied correct.
city Manager Harrell stated that it was recognized that that was
the case and that was the reason for starting dialogues with all of
the smaller cities and as well as lobbying the County to continue
their subsidy to the City.
Mayor Castleberry asked for the actual cost for a run.
City Manager Harrell stated that the current charge was $120. The
actual cost was over $300 per run which was a conservative estimate
for the cost of a run.
Council Member Perry asked if runs out of the city were charged
less than $120.
City Manager Harrell stated that all runs were $120. The amount
received in fees plus the County subsidy did not cover the cost for
running the ambulance service. The gap between the amount collected
and the County subsidy was subsidized either by the smaller cities
or the general city tax payer to balance the budget.
102
City of Denton City Council Minutes
July 6, 1993
Page 26
Mayor Castleberry suggested that staff bring calculations and the
Council could then decide on a possible increase before the final
budget process.
Council Member Chew asked for figures to make the fees equitable
for all.
City Manager Harrell stated that Deputy City Manager Svehla and
Fire Chief Cook were going to meet with the small cities to discuss
the problem and possibly determine a way to make the process more
equitable. It might take a couple of year program to get to an
equitable ground as the other cities would be in the budget process
also.
12. Miscellaneous matters from the City Manager.
Lloyd Harrell, City Manger, presented the following items:
A. The staff had prepared a different agenda format per
Council's direction. A public requests section had been added for
input from citizens plus a "Staff Direction" item which would
involve major items needing council direction.
13. There was no Executive Session held during the Work Session.
14. New Business
The following items of New Business were suggested by Council
Members for future agendas:
A. Council Member Chew motioned, Cott seconded for
reconsideration of the Bartonville-Argyle ETJ issue. On roll vote,
Brock "aye", Cott, "aye", Miller "aye", Smith "aye", Chew "aye",
Perry "aye", and Mayor Castleberry "aye". Motion carried
unanimously.
B. Council Member Miller suggested reviewing the city
smoking ordinance.
15. There was no Executive Session held during the Regular
Session.
With no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 10:35 p.m.
