COUNCIL DECISION ON REQUEST BY MR. CALVIN STARR; STAFF REPORTS RELATED THERETO:
City Attorney Luke Daniel reported that Mr. Starr and other merchants in the K -Mart
Shopping Center had approached Police Chief Stanford and himself with a problem of
young people congregating and littering in the parking lot of the shopping center at
night and especially on weekends. This has been going on for a long time but now the
problem has become more serious in that when trying to clean up the area the street
sweepers are being intimidated by the groups of young people and the shoppers are
finding it difficult to park at the shopping center. City Attorney Daniel stated that
59
he, the Chief of Police, a representative of the District Attorney's office and the.
merchants met concerning this problem and formulated a model "notice to the public"
that the lot is for customer parking only and any other use of the parking lot is
prohibited and violators will be prosecuted. Last Friday night, the Police Chief
had leaflets prepared to hand out on a one -time -only basis to the people who were
congregating on the parking lot telling them that if they were not actually shopping
at the center, they were trespassing and that trespassing was a criminal offense.
City Attorney Daniel stated that he would like to give a word of thanks to Chief
Stanford for his efforts on this problem, and as things look now, the problem seems
to have been alleviated.
CITIZENS: (continued)
2. Scott Russell from Heritage Green Subdivision spoke before the Council about the
asphalt bleeding on Barry Rose Road and requested Council action to correct this

along the bottom.
On May 22, 1985, the citizens of Heritage Green Subdivision submitted a petition to
the City complaining about the condition of Barry Rose Road. The petition contained
the names of 186 residents.

COUNCIL DECISION ON REQUEST BY HERITAGE GREEN SUBDIVISION HOMEOWNERS; STAFF REPORTS
RELATED THERETO:
City Manager Ron Wicker explained that they knew there was a possibility that this
problem would occur because due to the time of year the penetration paving was
installed the paving did not have time to cure. The contractor, Ike Hall, Inc., is
under a two-year maintenance bond and he has been contacted and put on notice that
the road will have to be put back in an acceptable condition. However, the contrac-
tor on the drainage project for F. M. 518 and Barry Rose will begin work in the next
week or so and will be tearing up the end of Barry Rose Road to do this project.
Mr. Larry Goodmen, also from Heritage Green Subdivision, addressed the Council with
a request that the City not have the entire roadway repaved but leave the end part
until after the drainage project is completed. He added that with the new Alexander
Landing subdivision going in that additional traffic is being generated on Barry
Rose so he would like the Council to reconsider repairing the penetration paving on
the road and replace it with some better form of paving that would hold up in the
future.
Mayor Reid requested that the City Staff look at this year's Budget to see what we
can do on Barry Rose Road.
DOCKETED PUBLIC HEARINGS:
1. LAND USE CHANGE APPLICATION NO. 142 -AMENDED - Blair Hamilton, Agent for Bennie
Oddo, Owner, from Classification Planned Unit to Commercial on 3.0285 acres of

Corner of O'Day Road and F. M. 518)
PERSONS WISHING TO SPEAK FOR THE PROPOSED CHANGE:
Mr. Blair Hamilton advised the Council that Mr. Oddo owns eight plus acres and had
originally applied for rezoning of the entire tract. At the Planning and Zoning
hearing some citizens to the north of the property voiced concern about rezoning
the back part Commercial if the owner did not have any immediate plans to develop
it. The application was amended at the hearing and the rezoning was requested on
V II
only the front three acres. It is proposed to develop a strip center on approximately
20,000 sq. ft. with a self -serve gas station and a tire center already planned to go in.

REVIEW OF PAVEMENT DESIGN FOR F. M. 518 FROM STATE HIGHWAY 35 TO GALVESTON COUNTY LINE
City Manager Ron Wicker explained that he had recently received a letter from Mr. Poor -
man, District Engineer of the Highway Department, concerning the widening of F. M. 518
from State Highway 35 to Galveston County Line. The project design work will be in two
parts: the first being 0.2 mile of a section from Galveston County Line west to take in
the major drainage structure at Mary's Creek Bypass and 518; the other being the point
from the 0.2 mile east of the Galveston County Line to Highway 35. In the past,consid-
ering the widening of Westminister to the Galveston County Line, the Council requested
to the State that the roadway elevation be maintained as it exists now and that it be
constructed as a curb and gutter section. In Mr. Poorman's letter he stated that if
the elevation of the centerline of the roadway is designed the same as it exists today,
it would result in considerable additional expense to the City because of the various
drainage problems it will create. He had attached some cost estimates relating to this.
Mr. Poorman questioned that in light of the additional expense, would the City like to
reconsider their request and since the State is now in the design process for the 0.2
mile length of F_ M. 518 near the Galveston County Line he would like Council's deci-
sion as soon as possible.
After a lengthy discussion by the Council concerning the roadway elevation and the
cost and construction involved, it was recommended that the City Manager inform
Mr. Poorman that the Council would like to proceed with the normal curb and gutter
cross section design that the State uses with keeping the elevation of F. M. 518 as
high as possible but that we do not want to commit to the additional expense involved
65
in keeping the centerline elevation as it exists today.
APPOINTMENT OF MEMBER TO THE ZONING BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT
Mayor Reid stated that this item will be passed to a future agenda.
REVIEW AND POSSIBLE AWARD OF THE FOLLOWING BIDS:
(a) Bid No. B85-10, Water Line Materials, Highway 35 and Dixie Farm Road

Water Line Materials, Highway 35 and Dixie Farm Road, be awarded to Municipal Pipe

the appropriate fund.
City Manager Wicker commented that these materials will be used to loop the water
system down Dixie Farm Road from its present deadend location just south of Westfield,
all the way down to Highway 35 and back up on Highway 35 to tie back into the system
just south of Magnolia. This will be a 16" line that will adequately serve all that

Motion passed 5 to 0.
(b) Bid No. B85-11, Fire Hydrants
City Manager Ron Wicker explained that we have found a discrepancy in discussing this

authorized to proceed with rebidding this project offering "or equal" type bid.

TERMS AND PROVIDING FOR PAYMENT OF FEES PRIOR TO RECEIPT OF SERVICE
City Attorney Luke Daniel explained that the current Ordinance requires the payment of
capital maintenance and recovery fee at the time of issuance of building permits. As
the Ordinance reads now, a commercial or residential unit tying on to our sanitary sewer
and water facilities and not requiring a building permit is immuned from paying capital
maintenance and recovery fees. This new Ordinance redefines terms, amends the method
and vehicle by which the Capital Recovery Fee will be collected, and puts forth three
different possibilities when payment of fees are due and payable.
