line abutting University Boulevard, and a water main and
sewer main easement running generally from northeast to
southeast on the east property line of the property. The
abandonment will be accomplished by an ordinance of the

the land to the City. Mayor Goldman authorized the City staff to

Councilmember Peek presented an EMPLOYEE RECOGNITION AWARD to
FRANKIE WATSON, Deputy Court Clerk. Ms. Watson grasps new concepts
readily and mastered the basic duties of her position in minimum
time. By consistently seeking out responsibility, her extra

ITEMS FROM THE FLOOR

addressed when that item is discussed by the City Council.
Jane Beard, 4104 Lovers Lane, requested not being charged for sewer
or garbage collection service but leaving the water service on
while she is out of town. City Manager Livingston responded that
because the sewer and garbage services are unmetered, there is no
way for the City to know whether or not a household uses them. He
suggested she install a separate yard meter, which would allow a
customer to discontinue regular monthly City services but continue
water service for the yard.
Mr. Norton Hinckley asked if there were new developments regarding
extension of the North Central Expressway wall north from
Westminster. Public Works Director Bud Smallwood reported that he
had met with Texas Department of Transportation representatives,

display, storage, and sale of live plants, cut flowers, and
traditional season decorations outside of a building. Bob Clark,
Zoning Ordinance Advisory Committee Chairman, reported that the
Committee met on March 28, 1995 and recommended that the City
Council amend the ordinance as proposed. Marty Pinkowitz, Cotton
Clothing Company in Snider Plaza, requested that the City Council
change Ordinance No. 94/12 to allow Snider Plaza merchants to
observe sixteen one-day events and display goods for sale on public
property, preferably on Saturdays during warm months, instead of
the four-day events throughout the year. Lisa Kuby, representing
Kuby's, stated that Kuby's would like Saturday Fest. Councilmember
Holmes acknowledged the hard work of ZOAC but stated that he would
be opposed to having clothing displayed on sidewalks for sixteen
Saturdays during the summer. Mayor Goldman assured the merchants
that the Council will take the request under advisement. There
being no further discussion, Mayor Goldman closed the Public
Hearing. Mayor Goldman moved approval of ORDINANCE NO. 95/12,
amending the code of ordinances Chapter 4, Section 6, (as adopted
in Ord. 94/12) by adding subsection D to Section 6, to read as
follows:
"D. SEASONAL DISPLAY

(2) If the Building Official determines that the outside display,
storage, and sale falls within this subsection, he may permit the
same without the necessity of the issuance of an SEP.

instead of refurbishing the Northwest Highway water tower. The
bids to repaint were so close to the cost of building that the
Council felt it is in the best interest of the City to build. The

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1995 AT 7:30 A.M.
Mayor F.B. Pete Goldman opened the meeting at 7:30 a.m. Present
were Mayor Pro Tem Harold Peek and Councilmember James "Blackie"
Holmes. Also in attendance were City Attorney Rob Dillard, City
Manager Bob Livingston, and City Secretary Bobbie Sharp.
The Council received a request from Katheryn Bauman to erect a
temporary tent in Snider Plaza. Mayor Goldman expressed his
regret, but the rule is for a sixty-day leeway between special
events, and another event is planned for October. Mr. John Goren,
representing Ms. Bauman, was present.
On September 1, 1995, Lone Star Gas (LSG) filed a rate request with
University Park. LSG seeks an approximate 4.6% rate increase to
cover operating expenses and provide a reasonable rate of return.
While LSG seeks to increase the monthly base charge from $5.50 to
$8.00, it also proposes to lower the per-thousand-cubic-feet (MCF)
charge. LSG last made a rate request in 1986. LSG proposes an
effective date of October 9, 1995 for the new rates. If the City
takes no action within 35 days of the rate filing, the proposed
rates take effect. Alternatively, the City may suspend the request
for 90 days and study the request in more detail. Councilmember
Peek moved approval of Resolution No. 95-10 suspending Lone Star
Gas rate request, Councilmember Holmes seconded, and the motion
passed unanimously.
RESOLUTION NO. 95-10
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
UNIVERSITY PARK, TEXAS, PROVIDING FOR SUSPENSION OF A
REQUESTED RATE INCREASE FROM LONE STAR GAS COMPANY FOR A
PERIOD OF NINETY (90) DAYS FROM OCTOBER 9, 1995;
PROVIDING EXCEPTIONS; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
Reconstruction of the manhole at the intersection of Thackeray and
the alley between Amherst and Stanford is one of the final items of
work on the MPY water and sewer project. When the contractor
excavated for that structure, it was discovered that the existing
18" trunk main running north/south in Thackeray (perpendicular to
the new sewer) was in a seriously deteriorated condition. Upon
further investigation, it was found that the material used was a
concrete pipe that had completely eroded over the years from
exposure to hydrogen sulfide gas. Based on the physical condition
57
of the pipe, it is obvious that it could collapse at any time. The
current project includes the reconstruction of the street pavement
along Thackeray; however, staff recommended that this replacement
work should be completed prior to repaying the street - so those
costs are not wasted if the sewer should collapse in the coming
months. The Council deferred this item to a later date.
Mayor Goldman moved approval of a proposal and an interlocal
agreement with Dallas County for continuation of a program to
dispose of household hazardous waste. The cost for this project is
$20,000 and will be charged to Account #04-60-00-7601.
Councilmember Peek seconded the motion, and the vote was unanimous
to approve.
The Council discussed a change order with Landmark Structures to
construct a structural second floor in the pedestal of the proposed
Northwest Highway water tank in the amount of $67,000.
Councilmember Peek moved to not consider constructing a structural
second floor in the pedestal of the proposed Northwest Highway
water tank, Councilmember Holmes seconded the motion, and the vote
was unanimous not to build.
The Council discussed a proposal with GSW & Associates to develop
an engineering study of the City's sanitary sewer collection in
response to an EPA directive. Staff is to ask for an extension and
this item will be brought before the Council at the October 3, 1995
Council meeting.
The volume of material removed from the dredging project at Curtis,
Goar and Williams Parks exceeded the Engineer's Estimate by 38%,
and the City also authorized the contractor to do a small amount of
cleaning in Caruth Park (approximately 300 cubic yards). Because
of this situation, Councilmember Holmes moved approval of a Change
Order to the contract to increase the original contract price of
$422,750.00 by 25 percent or $105,687.00 for a total contract price
of $528,437.00. Mayor Goldman seconded, and the vote was unanimous
to approve. The increase will be paid from Capital Improvements
Fund.
Since there had been confusion with information regarding the
statute on the lot split at 4381 San Carlos, Mayor Goldman asked
the staff to send a letter explaining the reason for splitting the
lot.
Councilmember Peek moved approval of Ordinance No. 95/34 regulating

of regulating at this time and took no action.
Councilmember Peek moved approval of renewing the E9-1-1 Emergency
Service Fee with Southwestern Bell Telephone by signing the 9-1-1
Emergency Service Fee Declaration and passing Resolution No. 95-11.
Southwestern Bell Telephone Company will then prepare an "AGREEMENT

recommendations.
PUBLIC HEARINGS, ORDINANCES, AND RESOLUTIONS
Reconstruction of the manhole at the intersection of Thackeray and
the alley between Amherst and Stanford is one of the final items of
work on the Mile-Per-Year water and sewer project. When the
contractor excavated for that structure, it was discovered that the
existing 18" trunk main running north/south in Thackeray
(perpendicular to the new sewer) was in a seriously deteriorated
condition. Upon further investigation, it was found that the
material used was a concrete pipe that had completely eroded over
the years from exposure to hydrogen sulfide gas. Based on the
physical condition of the pipe, it was obvious that it could
collapse at any time. The scope of work for the proposed project
is the reconstruction of the existing 18" pipe with a new 20" PVC
main, which will be relocated out from under the haunch of the
parallel 84" storm sewer. Councilmember Sharp moved approval of
RESOLUTION No. 95-13 authorizing emergency reconstruction of an
existing 18" sanitary sewer main in Thackeray from Lovers Lane to
Turtle Creek Boulevard with the cost not to exceed $247,060.00.
Councilmember Holmes seconded the motion, and the vote was
unanimous to approve.
RESOLUTION NO. 95-13
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
UNIVERSITY PARK, TEXAS, AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO
EXECUTE A CONTRACT FOR RECONSTRUCTION OF A SANITARY SEWER
MAIN IN THACKERAY STREET FROM LOVERS LANE TO TURTLE
CREEK; MAKING FINDINGS EXEMPTING SUCH CONTRACT FROM THE
REQUIREMENTS OF COMPETITIVE BIDDING; AND PROVIDING AN
EFFECTIVE DATE.
The City of University Park has benefitted by working with the
Dallas County prices for milling and overlaying our streets. Mayor
Goldman moved approval of Resolution 95-14 authorizing execution of
an interlocal agreement with Dallas County to allow the City of
University Park to utilize the County's HOT MIX ASPHALTIC
CONTRACTOR to provide materials for overlaying City streets.
Councilmember Stansbury seconded, and the motion passed
unanimously.
RESOLUTION NO. 95-14
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
UNIVERSITY PARK, TEXAS, APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING
EXECUTION OF AN INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY
AND DALLAS COUNTY TO PROVIDE FOR THE OVERLAY OF VARIOUS
CITY STREETS; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
MAIN MISCELLANEOUS
At the request of L.E. (Bud) Harlan, 4372 Potomac, the Council
discussed creating a park at 4381 SAN CARLOS on the corner of San
Carlos and Armstrong. Mr. Bond Beams, 4353 San Carlos, expressed
the need for a commitment from the City to act favorably. Mayor
Goldman expressed the thoughts of the Council by saying that this
would put the City in a difficult situation if the City did not
have the property first, but that the Council would have to
seriously consider the idea if the land were donated to the City.
Members of the staff were present to respond to any questions
concerning the Capital Projects Update, but no action by Council
was necessary.
Councilmember Peek moved that all matters listed under Consent
Agenda be considered routine by the City Council and enacted by one
motion without discussion. Councilmember Stansbury seconded, and

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1995 AT 7:30 A.M.
Mayor F.B. Pete Goldman called the meeting to order. Present were
Mayor Pro Tem Harold Peek and Councilmembers James "Blackie"
Holmes, Chris Sharp and Dan Stansbury. Also in attendance were
City Attorney Rob Dillard, City Manager Bob Livingston, and City
Secretary Bobbie Sharp.
When DART's light rail transportation crossing construction is
complete at North Central Expressway and Fondren, a stretch of
about 125' of paving on Fondren going east from the service road is
not included in the planned reconstruction. After discussing the
request of Windle Turley and the owners of Cafe Brazil for the City
of University Park to pave the approximately 125' strip of Fondren,
Councilmember Peek moved that staff be authorized to negotiate the
FONDREN AVENUE STREET SECTION REPLACEMENT. Councilmember Holmes
seconded the motion, and the vote was unanimous to approve.
As a result of an accident, a resident at Westminster and Durham
would like to pay for the cost of replacing the existing street
light on his corner with a cast iron period decorative pole and to
underground the electrical service from the alley. The current
practice is that the City directs T.U. Electric to place a street
light (a "cobra head" on a wood pole) at the intersection of two
streets, and the City will pay the monthly maintenance/electric fee
of about $3.00. TU Electric owns and maintains all of the
equipment. The exception is the decorative poles and fixtures that
have been installed along Hillcrest and, more recently, throughout
Snider Plaza. In this case, the City owns and maintains this
equipment and pays a monthly charge for electric use.
Councilmember Stansbury said he had no problem with period lights
if they were consistent throughout the City. He then moved
approval of the decorative light fixture at the corner of
Westminster and Durham provided the City control the type of
fixture chosen and the installation. Councilmember Sharp seconded,
and the motion passed unanimously.
Councilmember Stansbury moved approval of a bid in the amount of
$129,398.75 from Cutler Repaving from Lawrence, Kansas, for "In-
Place- Recycling of Asphalt Streets" on various streets. Mayor
Goldman seconded the motion, and the vote was unanimous to approve.
Funds for project #42620 will be available in account #44-44-4410.
In order to enable the Fire Department to continue providing a high
level of protective service to the City, Mayor Goldman moved
approval of the purchase of a new FIRE TRUCK at a cost of
$229,195.00. Councilmember Peek seconded the motion, and the vote
was unanimous to approve. The new truck has an expected delivery
date of September 1996 and will replace a twenty year old fire
truck scheduled for replacement in FY 1996. The truck will be
purchased from Quality Manufacturing, Inc. through the Houston-
Galveston Area Council Cooperative Purchasing Program under the
Interlocal Purchasing Agreement approved by the Council in July
1994. Funds are available in the Equipment Services Fund account
#47-90-00-9040. City Manager Bob Livingston said he would bring
purchases of vehicles over the amount of $10,000 for approval by
the Council.
Councilmember Stansbury moved that the Council accept Texas
Municipal League's bid for Property and Mobile Equipment for a
premium of $12,098 and Arthur J. Gallagher's bid for Worker's
Compensation, General Liability, Auto Liability, Law Enforcement
Liability, Public Official's Liability, Auto Physical Damage, and
Boiler & Machinery Coverage and Claims Administration for a premium
of $288,776. This would put the total cost of the insurance
program at $300,874. Since the City has no open property or mobile
equipment claims, there would be no additional charges for claims
run-off. Councilmember Sharp seconded, and vote was unanimous to
approve.
The Council discussed a request to sell tennis permits for persons
who are not University Park residents but live in the Highland Park
Independent School District. Because of the added expense of
modifying the tennis reservation program, it was the consensus of
the Council to not sell tennis permits to persons who do not reside
in the City of University Park.
Due to a time conflict, Mayor Goldman moved that the date of the
November City Council Work Session be changed from November 15 to
November 22. Councilmember Sharp seconded, and the motion passed
unanimously.
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned.
PASSED AND APPROVED, this the 7th day of November, 1995.

attenuation wall along the DALLAS NORTH TOLLWAY, generally from
Mockingbird Lane north to Greenbrier. The City will withhold a
Notice to Proceed to HNTB until an interlocal agreement between the

the design, construction, and cost sharing of a sound attenuation
wall along the east side of the Dallas North Tollway. The
agreement requires the City to provide the design of the proposed
wall utilizing TTA guidelines and to use TTA's engineering

After discussion, Councilmember Stansbury moved approval of Ordinance
No. 96/18 regulating filming productions in the City with the
stipulation that charitable organizations would go through the
permitting process but the fee will be waived. The Ordinance makes
a distinction between small and larger production projects, with small
projects being defined as those requiring three or fewer vehicles,
including all production and personal vehicles of production staff.
Larger projects are those requiring four or more vehicles. The
distinction was made because small productions are less disruptive and
require less preparation time for city staff and less accommodation
by neighboring residents and business owners. Councilmember Sharp
seconded, and the motion passed unanimously.

As a result of surveys prepared in conjunction with the proposed
construction of a residence on a portion of Lot 25, Block 7,
University Heights Third Addition, otherwise known as 3501 Bryn Mawr
Dr., it has been noted that through development of the various
abutting subdivisions, the dedicated eighty (80') foot right of way
for Turtle Creek Boulevard has been reduced. Staff has determined
that a sixty-five(65') foot right of way is adequate for current and
future infrastructure needs. Abandonment of some portion of the
existing right of way and/or sale of out-parcels to adjacent property
owners is required to provide for a consistent sixty-five(65') foot
right of way along Turtle Creek Blvd. Staff recommended approval of
an Ordinance abandoning a portion of an existing eighty(80') right of
way and sale of a certain out-parcel of said right-of-way for Turtle
Creek Blvd. abutting Lot 25, Block 7, University Heights Third
Addition, otherwise known as 3501 Bryn Mawr Dr. to Mr. Robert M.

At the May, 1996 Work Session, the City Council approved Ordinance
No. 96/19 which corrected several problems involving the property
and adjacent street right-of-way at 3501 Bryn Mawr. The
corrections were based on a previous survey of the lot. The City's
engineer used that information to establish the new right-of-way
line for Turtle Creek Blvd. After the City Council approved the
land transaction, the property owner proceeded with the actual
replat of the lot. During this process, it was discovered that one
of the lot lines varied from a true ninety degree corner. This
resulted in a shift of the property corner. The shift caused the
actual land sold by the City to be 606 square feet instead of 781
120
square feet a reduction of 175 square feet. At the appraised value
of $28.00 a square foot, the new value is $4,900 less than the
$21,686 original amount resulting in a figure of $16,968. In order
to correct this problem, Mayor Pro Tem Stansbury moved approval of
ORDINANCE NO. 96/23 abandoning a portion of the street right-of-way
to MR. ROBERT OLMSTED and authorizing the refund of $4,900 to the
property owner. Councilmember Lane seconded, and the motion passed
unanimously.

other challenges, a coalition of Texas cities has formed to develop
consistent policies, influence policy-making, and protect municipal
interest. The cost to join is $0.05/per capita (approximately

As the result of a petition to the Council signed by forty-three residents of the 4300 Block of

As a result of remodeling of Virginia and Snider Halls on the SOUTHERN METHODIST
UNIVERSITY CAMPUS, subsoil and roof drains serving the dormitories have been redesigned
to connect to the storm water drainage system located at the intersection of Hillcrest Avenue and
Dyer Street. The modification was required because the redesigned dormitories' drainage systems
could no longer be served by onsite storm drains. The License Agreement is required to allow
the private drainage system to enter into the public right of way and connect to the back of the
storm water inlet at the east side of the referenced intersection. The City Engineer has required
that an airgap be provided on private property to act as a relief valve in the event of blockage
of the storm drain system. The airgap will prevent the possibility of rising water from the storm
drain system entering the private drainage system and risk flooding of Virginia or Snider Halls.

FAILURE TO APPEAR PROGRAM: Councilmember Lane moved approval of an Interlocal
Cooperation Contract with Texas Department of Public Safety regarding the Failure to Appear Program.
The program is designed to increase the percentage of traffic violators who appear before the originating
court for final disposition, rather than failing to appear on their court dates without good cause. Local
jurisdictions (like the UP Municipal Court) report FTA violators via computer modem to the State, which
can then deny renewal of the violators' driver's license. The program thus provides an immediate
motivation (a warning on the ticket that FTA offenders are subject to license denial) and a long-term

Court. Councilmember Stansbury seconded the motion, and the vote was unanimous to approve.

with CENTERLINE SUPPLY for a total amount of $16,718.50 for a Thermoplastic Applicator and
Trailer after the Traffic Control Division discovered that the product did not meet the specifications
listed in the bid. Councilmember Lane seconded, and the motion passed unanimously.

Stansbury seconded, and the vote was unanimous to approve a Temporary License Agreement to allow

whose goal is to raise $10 million to build a community library in University Park.
2) providing $1,000,000 (drawn from the City's Byrd Estate reserve) to endow a "Volunteer
Chair" position if the library fund raising committee is successful in raising $2 million
by December 31, 2000. The $2 million will endow two "Librarian Chair" positions.
3) allocate interest earnings from the $1,000,000 matching fund during calendar years 1998,
1999, and 2000 to assist the foundation in expenses related to planning for the
construction and operation of the library. Interest earnings are estimated at $60,000/year.
The funds would be released annually at the discretion of the City Council, conditioned
first on the success of the Friends of the Park Cities Library raising $300,000 by the end
of 1997, and next on progress of the fund raising committee proceeding methodically
toward achieving their goal.
4) funding a portion of operations of the first year of the library at $200,000 per year; after
the first year, City participation in the library will be reviewed through the annual City
budget process.
Councilmember Lane seconded the motion, and the vote was unanimous to approve.
Councilmember Lane moved approval of an interlocal agreement with the City of Garland
authorizing the sale of approximately 92.5 acres of land to the City of Garland. Rather than
receiving cash for the land, University Park will receive credits for landfill usage at the City of
Garland's landfills (Castle Drive & Raney) for the next 29.5 years. In addition, University Park
will have the right to dispose of its refuse at the landfills for their useful life. Depending upon
pending permit applications, it is anticipated that the Raney landfill could have its life extended
to more than fifty-five years. Councilmember Stansbury seconded the motion, and the vote was
196
unanimous to approve. Councilmember Stansbury suggested the City, with the anticipated
savings, start a fund to handle future costs. Mayor Goldman asked the Finance Director to
provide a report to the City Council regarding possible alternatives for creation of a reserve for
future waste disposal expenses.

a report to the City Manager, Mayor, and the City Council regarding material weaknesses and

Haynie, and Golf from McFarlin to Lovers Lane. Change Order #1 included replacement
of the fire station tarmac ($25,503.50); geometric changes at the intersection of
University and Haynie ($15,980); modification of specification for backfill materials
($44,900 CREDIT); commercial cement-stabilized sand instead of yard mix ($50,000
CREDIT); additional boring under University Blvd ($24,750); and change in pavement
thickness ($11,880). The change order reflects a net dollar impact of $16,786.50 in favor
of the City. Councilmember Walley moved approval of Change Order #1.
Councilmember Holmes seconded and the motion carried by unanimous vote.
Change Order #2 concerned an additional bore at Curtis Park. The Park Advisory
Committee recommended the Council instruct Tri-Con Services to bore the entire length
of the park in an effort to save certain trees. This will result in an increase of
approximately 200 LF of boring in lieu of open-cut construction. The cost of this item is
$30,000. Councilmember Lane moved approval of Change Order #2, and the motion
died for lack of a second. After discussion of the various alternatives, the City Council
called a special meeting for Saturday, May 23, 1998 at 8:30 a.m. for further consideration

system. Chief Ledbetter explained how the rating system works and how parts of the Fire

the motion, and the motion passed by unanimous vote.

Mayor Harold Peek called the meeting to order. Present were Councilmember Dick Davis, James
"Blackie Holmes", and Olin Lane. Councilmember Jim Walley was absent. Also in attendance
were City Attorney Rob Dillard, City Manager Bob Livingston, and City Secretary BObbie Sharp.
Mayor Peek opened a Public Heating to discuss the proposed budget for 1998-99 (FY99) and
projected budget for 1999-2000 (FY00). After discussion, Mayor Peek closed the Public Hearing.
A second heating will be held at the September 1, 1998 City Council Meeting, when the budget is
advertised for adoption.
Mayor Peek opened a Public Hearing to discuss the proposed property tax rate for FY99. The
proposed rate represents an effective tax increase of 3.09%, due to adjustments in the 1997 base
used for comparison (adjustments for new, lost, and disputed property and tax refunds). After
discussion, Mayor Peek closed the Public Hearing. The proposed tax rate will be advertised for
adoption at the September 1, 1998 City Council meeting.
Councilmember Holmes moved approval of a proposal from R.L. Goodson, Jr., Inc., for
engineering services associated with SMU's Master Plan and the design of a 12" water main
between Airline and Hillcrest along the south side of the SMU Campus. This proposal will provide
engineering service associated with the following tasks:
1. Develop a utility master plan to identify impacts of SMU's Centennial Master Plan and
recommend immediate and long range modifications to the City's water distribution and
sanitary sewer collection networks.
2. Design and provide construction plans and specifications for a "southern loop" 12" water
main from Airline and Potomac to Hillcrest and Potomac. This would call for the City to
abandon certain water mains along Airline, north of the proposed Dublin-Airline connector
street, and several mains that run eastwest through the middle of the campus. These
abandonments will help isolate SMU's distribution system from the City's network.
Update the City's hydraulic computer model of the water distribution system - specifically,
to study the impact of the aforementioned improvements and abandonments.
The R.L. Goodson, Jr., Inc. Proposal in the amount of $46,500.00 would be a shared project
between the City and SMU. SMU would be responsible for items 1 and 3, and the City would pay
for the cost of the design and subsequent construction of the 12" water main. This project has been
identified and funded on the City's Capital Improvements Fund. As detailed on the attached
spreadsheet, the City and SMU financial responsibilities are $28,000 and $18,500 respectively.
The motion is subject to the deletion of sales tax in Section VII and the limiting of liability of

CITY COUNCIL MEETING
CITY OF UNIVERSITY PARK, TEXAS
CITY HALL COUNCIL CHAMBER
TUESDAY, MARCH 2, 1999 AT 5:00 P.M.
Mayor Harold Peek called the meeting to order. Present were Mayor Pro Tem James
"Blackie" Holmes and Councilmembers Olin Lane and Jim Walley. Councilmember Dick
Davis was absent and excused. Also present were City Attorney Rob Dillard, City Manager
Bob Livingston and City Secretary Bobbie Sharp.
Councilmember Olin Lane delivered the Invocation. City Manager Livingston introduced
staff in attendance.
Chief of Police/Fire Robert O. Dixon presented Citizen Commendations to Steve and Marsha
Williamson, 3400 Colgate; Frank and Gayle Miller, 3320 Colgate; and Johnny and Casey
Koons, 3401 Marquette for their actions of January 23, 1999. These three couples provided
valuable assistance to a young motorist who had sustained serious injuries in a vehicle
accident in the 8000 block of Hillcrest. Their actions in calming and tending to the motorist
until the University Park Paramedics arrived prevented further injury to the motorist and
enabled the responding patrol officer to begin his duty of controlling traffic to prevent further
accidents. Chief Dixon stated that the quick thinking, unselfish concern and the willingness
to help others reflects greatly on these six people and the City of University Park.
Mayor Peek introduced several visitors in attendance and asked the Boy Scouts in attendance
to introduce themselves.
Mr. Peter Moir, 6817 Golf Drive, addressed the City Council from the floor. Mr. Moir
expressed concern about the removal of 15 trees from Curtis Park on February 5, 1999
without notice to the neighboring residents. Mr. Moir asked that the City develop more
public procedures to oversee tree removal in the future. He recommended that the Park
Advisory Committee be involved in developing policies on tree removal on a per tree basis
according to the size of the tree.
Mr. Morton Newman, 6725 Golf Drive, supported Mr. Moir's comments and suggested that
the City devise a standard policy of evaluating the quality of complaints on trees and/or
sidewalks before taking action.
City Manager Livingston explained that the trees in question were removed out of necessity
based on drainage issues, floodplain concerns and complaints of overgrowth along the low-
lying areas around the lake in Curtis Park. Councilmember Lane recognized the suggestion
of developing written policies on tree removal, and supported the city staff's decision to
remove the trees. Mr. Lane then referred to the City's active program of planting trees, citing
670 new trees planted by the City's Park Department since 1994 with 168 of those being
u:/minutes/mn030299.doc
302
planted in 1998. Councilmember Walley added that the City Council and staff are committed
to preserving the aesthetic value of University Park by effectively managing tree and plant
life.
Mayor Peek opened a Public Hearing to discuss a proposed ordinance to create a new
Planned Development District (PD-23) for the Park Cities Y.M.C.A. for the development of a
Teen Center in the vicinity of Highland Park High School. The ordinance would rezone Lots
1-10, Block 4 of Preston Heights Addition into the newly created PD-23 for use by the
Y.M.C.A. The remaining property, Lots 18-28, Block 4 and Lots 1-8, Block 5 of Preston
Heights Addition, would be rezoned to Single Family District 1 (SF-1). The Planning and
Zoning Commission voted to recommend approval to the City Council at its January 18,
1999 meeting.
Speaking in favor of the ordinance were Randy Garrett and Don Hanna of the Y.M.C.A.;
Larry Good of Good, Fulton, & Farrell; and Leslie Bolton, HPHS Class of 2000. Their
position was based on the need for a place for Park Cities youth to congregate, play, exercise,
and study after school hours and on weekends. The facility would contain study rooms, a
gymnasium, a climbing wall, teen exercise facilities, meeting rooms, and a computer center
and would be open from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday - Friday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday, and 1
p.m. to 8 p.m. on Sunday. Special events might move closing hours to 11 p.m. periodically
throughout the year. The facility would only be open to youth members of the Park Cities
Y.M.C.A. Members of other Dallas-area Y.M.C.A.'s would have to be in a certain age group
and would be required to pay a guest fee each time they used the facility. Chuck Mullinax of
Apprasial Brokerage & Consulting, Inc. stated that he believed the project would have a
positive impact on neighboring property values.
Speaking in opposition of the ordinance were Jerry Stover, 4025 Druid; James Keay, Jr.,
4123 Grassmere; and Morton Newman, 6725 Golf, who owns property on Druid. They
expressed concerns relating to the impact of the project on property tax revenues for the City,
property values surrounding the proposed facility, water/drainage issues along Westchester,
and neighborhood concerns with the design of the facility and proposed traffic patterns. The
residents were opposed to the project as proposed, and urged the City Council to delay any
decision on the matter until such time as the Y.M.C.A., HPISD, and the neighborhood could
develop a plan for the project that is more acceptable to everyone involved.
Councilmember Holmes moved to suspend any further discussion in the Public Hearing and
the subsequent consideration of the ordinance until the April 6, 1999 City Council meeting,
providing the Y.M.C.A., HPISD, and the interested neighbors could meet and work out a
more acceptable proposal by that time. Mr. Holmes mentioned that the City Council would
be available at their March 17, 1999 work session to hear a progress report on the project.
Councilmember Walley seconded, and the motion carried by unanimous vote.
Councilmember Lane moved approval of Ordinance No. 99/8 designating the parking spaces
along both sides of the east half of the 4100 block of San Carlos for 2-hour parking, Monday
through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Councilmember Holmes seconded. Discussion was

not more than two hours. The five northern spaces will remain unrestricted. Councilmember

Manager Bob Livingston and City Secretary Bobbie Sharp.
Councilmember Davis led the Invocation. Mr. Livingston introduced staff members in

CHIEF BEN CLICK, DALLAS POLICE: Chief of Police/Fire Robert O. Dixon
introduced Chief Ben Click of the Dallas Police Department. Chief Dixon expressed the
gratitude and appreciation of the University Park Police Department for the assistance
Chief Click and the entire Dallas Police Department have generously extended over the
years. University Park has had occasion to call on DPD for assistance with helicopters,
canine units, manpower, accident investigations, criminal investigations, criminal
intelligence, and other related matters many times in the past, and DPD has always
responded affirmatively and in a professional manner. The past cooperation of DPD is
appreciated and the future relationship between the Departments has a firm foundation.
Mayor Peek expressed the appreciation of the entire City and presented Chief Click with
a plaque. Chief Click graciously thanked Chief Dixon and the City Council and
mentioned that the plaque would be displayed in the Police Academy where it would be
seen by many officers and visitors to the Dallas Police Department.
Mayor Peek asked the Boy Scouts in attendance to introduce themselves.

BANK DEPOSITORY SERVICES: Councilmember Walley moved approval of a

responses to the City's Request for Proposal (RFP). Councilmember Lane seconded, and
the motion carried by unanimous vote.
BICYCLE HELMETS: The City Council discussed a City Bicycle Helmet Ordinance,
based on a request from a resident. Chief of Police/Fire Bob Dixon reported that he had
contacted surrounding cities and found that few cities had such an ordinance and that he
did not believe a bicycle helmet ordinance would be an effective tool in preventing
injury. The Chief suggested that the City institute a plan to publicize the fact that May,
1999 is Bicycle Helmet Safety Month in order to educate parents and children on the
risks of head injury from bicycle accidents.
TRAFFIC AROUND McCULLOCH MIDDLE SCHOOL/HYER ELEMENTARY: The
City Council discussed the results of engineering studies regarding traffic issues around
McCulloch Middle School and Hyer Elementary School. After hearing from Director of

Hillcrest and Granada.

consideration of a regulatory ordinance on the use of Public Rights-of-Way for the
provision of telecommunications services within the City. The City Council preferred to
have a formal record of participation or approval from several telecommunication service
providers before considering such action.
MUNICIPAL CONSENT ORDINANCE/AGREEMENT WITH SW BELL: The City
Council deferred consideration of a Muncipal Consent Ordinance and Agreement with
Southwestern Bell Telephone Company until such time as a regulatory ordinance on the
use of the Public Rights-of-Way for the provision of telecommunications services within

GROUNDWATER MONITORING WELL: Councilmember Walley moved approval of
a license agreement with EA Engineering for installation of a groundwater monitoring
well to be associated with the underground fuel storage tanks at the Exxon service station
at the southwest comer of Lovers Lane and Snider Plaza. Councilmember Davis
seconded and the motion carded by unanimous vote.
WATER METER REPLACEMENT: The City Council discussed a staff report on water
meter replacement and the option of automated water meter reading systems. Replacing
the 12 year old water meters would likely increase the amount of water revenue for the
City. An automated read system would more than double the cost of such a project. The
Council directed staff to institute a program to replace the City's aging water meters over
a period of five years. The Council further directed that staff use locally registered, non-
automated water meters.
WASTEWATER METERING STATIONS: Councilmember Walley moved approval of
a proposal from GSW & Associates in the amount of $24,390.00 for professional
engineering services in the design of two wastewater metering stations. The project
would help regulate charges from the City of Dallas for wastewater treatment services.
Councilmember Lane seconded, and the vote was unanimous to approve.
LINDER-STAHL FINAL PAYMENT: Councilmember Lane moved approval of final
payment to Linder-Stahl Construction in the amount of $6,679.87 for water, sanitary

PUBLIC HEARING: SMU PARKING GARAGE, HILLCREST/DANIEL. Mayor Peek
opened a Public Hearing to consider creating a new Planned Development District
consisting of Lot 1 and the west twenty (20) feet of Lot 2, Block A of Jester's Revision -
SMU Heights Addition of the City of University Park, and Lots 5, 6, 7, & 8, Block J of
University Park Resubdivision Addition - 2nd Installment of the City of University Park.
This location is better known as the northeast comer of Daniel and Hillcrest and would be
for a parking garage owned by Southern Methodist University. The property is currently
zoned Multi-Family District 3 (MF-3) and Parking District (P). Mr. Leon Bennett of
SMU described the project. Residents speaking in favor of the project cited parking relief
for Snider Plaza and the surrounding neighborhoods as a major reason. Residents
speaking against the project cited increased traffic congestion and concern over the effect
of such a structure on the surrounding neighborhood, both aesthetically and in terms of
property values. This request was approved with amendments by the Planning and
Zoning Commission on March 1, 1999. After all comments were heard, Mayor Peek
closed the Public Hearing.
Mayor Pro Tem Holmes moved approval of a new Planned Development for the SMU
parking garage subject to the following conditions:
1. That staff return an ordinance establishing the Planned Development for a 500
space parking garage which includes the 35' height limit above average natural
grade, traffic mitigation measures recommended by staff, and the architectural
design proposed by SMU with a 4.5' offset from the East property line. All final
site drawings shall be included.
2. That staff prepare an amendment to the Planned Development which will
incorporate Parking Lots E and O on the SMU campus south of Daniel, north of
Dallas Hall, and east of the law school library for parking and green space. That
addition will be finalized by an appropriate Zoning Ordinance amendment prior to
issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for the parking garage.
Councilmember Lane seconded, and the motion carried by unanimous vote.

SANITATION DIVISION MANAGEMENT STUDY: Mr. John C. House, Senior Associate of
DMG Maximus, was present to discuss the results of a Cost of Service and Management Study for
the City's Sanitation Division. According to the study, the Sanitation Division is providing an
extremely high level of service compared with other departments in the local area and throughout
the United States. The report found that special services, such as brash pickup and packout pickup
(where garbage is collected from areas other than the alley or front curb), show the largest deficits.
However, the garbage collection service is so efficient that the study recommended that the City
take over the recycling pickup service that the private contractor is currently providing. The
Council directed staff not to renew the contract with BFI when the contract ends in October of this
year. About 17,000 tons of garbage account for about 80 percent of the City's solid waste stream.
Yard waste makes up about 17 percent, while recyclable materials make up less than 5 percent of
the City's overall waste stream. Councilmember Walley suggested that the City enclose an opinion
survey in the water bills to determine the citizens' preference as to the method of recycling and
regulation of refuse containers. The Council directed the staff to bring back recommendations
regulating rates for packouts, brash, and transfer station drop-offs.
BENEFIT HEALTH PLAN: Councilmember Walley moved approval to engage
PficeWaterhouseCoopers for $35,000 to study a plan of self-funding the City's health plan
beginning with the calendar year 2000. Their fee will be paid from the self-insurance fund.
