homes.
You are commended for your efforts in this matter. Furthermore, you are a fine example
of what the community and the University Park Police Department can do together to
make UP a safer community.
We would like to invite you to be recognized and to present you with the University Park

Recognition of Texas Higher Education Authority (THEA) Board
members
ITEM:
As you know, the Texas Higher Education Authority was created in 1985 by the City of University
Park. Under a provision in the State Education Code, THEA was empowered to issue tax-exempt
debt, which would then be used to make low-cost construction loans to private colleges and
universities in Texas. Loan repayments were then used to pay down the outstanding debt. The
City Council appointed a seven-member Board of Directors, composed of University Park
residents. The City's Finance Director served as the Authority's staff person, along with a third-
party program administrator. Over time, a host of loans was made to schools like Concordia
Lutheran College, Houston Baptist University, Our Lady of the Lake University, Texas Wesleyan
University, and the University of Dallas.
THEA's governing documents provide that any funds remaining at the end of THEA's operations
will revert to its sponsoring entity, the City of University Park. During 2003, the three remaining
borrower schools prepaid their loans, and the Board of Directors voted to retire all outstanding
debt. This retirement occurred December 3, 2003. By this time, over $3.6 million had
accumulated as surplus in a THEA trust fund, to be turned over to the City upon THEA's
termination. The amount is the result of many years of accumulated interest earnings and program
fees. In March 2004, net assets from THEA operations of $66,000 were added to this trust fund.
Rather than dissolve the Authority, the THEA Board voted to allow the Authority to become
dormant and approved the transfer of all but $25,000 to the City of University Park.
RECOMMENDATION
In light of the lengthy service of THEA's current Board members -- including one who has served
since 1985 - and in recognition of the sizable financial benefit to the City from the THEA transfer,
it is appropriate to recognize the Board members for their distinguished service. Below is a list of
THEA Board members deserving recognition at the June 1, 2004 Council meeting:

Honorable Mayor and City Council
Christine Green, Purchasing Agent
Travel Card Resolution
Last fall, the state began allowing cities to participate in the State Travel Management
Program (STMP), which negotiates government rates for airfare, hotels, and rental cars.
Participation in this program has several advantages, including:
Access to negotiated rates for airfare, hotels, and rental cars. Although
government airfares are not necessarily the cheapest, they have the advantage of
no advance purchase restrictions. The City can make flight reservations early, but
still make last-minute changes (date, time, traveler) without penalty.
Use of travel agency services. The STMP has a travel agency on contract to
assist in booking government travel. The agency charges only $10.75 per
transaction ($8.75 for online transactions). The agency will research all travel
options (state-negotiated fares and other), and will find the best value for the
traveler.
In order to participate in the STMP, the City must have a travel card issued by BankOne
via a contract with the state. This travel card will be on file with the travel agency, and
City travelers may charge travel to the card. There are no fees to acquire or use the card.
The attached resolution authorizes the Purchasing Agent to execute the agreement with
BankOne for participation in the Corporate Travel Charge Card Program.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the resolution authorizing participation in the Corporate
Travel Charge Card Program of BankOne, and authorizing the Purchasing Agent to
execute the agreement.

Mayor Harold Peek opened the meeting of the City Council. Present were Mayor Pro
Tempore Dick Davis, Councilmembers Jim Roberts, Harry Shawver and Blackie Holmes.
Also in attendance were City Attorney Rob Dillard, City Manager Bob Livingston and
City Secretary Nina Wilson.
Councilmember Roberts moved acceptance of the Consent Agenda. Councilmember
Holmes seconded, and the vote was unanimous to approve the following:
CONSENT AGENDA
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF MODIFICATION IN SALARY ORDINANCE TO
PROVIDE FOR HOUSING ALLOWANCE FOR CERTAIN DEPARTMENT
DIRECTORS ELECTING TO LIVE IN CITY: Approval of the ordinance would provide
an allowance of $500 per month paid to the Fire Chief, Chief of Police or Director of
Public Works, if they elected to live in the City of University Park. Having any or all of
these individuals live in the City would provide for easier availability and quicker
response after hours, as well as, extra eyes on the operations of the city.
ORDINANCE NO. 04/16
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF UNIVERSITY PARK, TEXAS, AMENDING
ORDINANCE NO. 03/23 TO AUTHORIZE A HOUSING ALLOWANCE FOR THE
DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS, THE POLICE CH1F, F, AND THE FIRE CH1F, F FOR
RESIDENCE WITHIN THE CITY LIMITS; PROVIDING FOR THE REPEAL OF ALL
ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
CONSIDER POOL VENDOR AGREEMENT: The agreement gives the exclusive right
to Annaline, Inc., operated by Mr. William Maxvill, to serve food and beverage items at
the city's pool. It requires the contractor to pay an annual fee of $6,500 to the city no
later than September 15th. Each subsequent year the agreement is renewed, the fee shall
increase by an amount equal to the Consumer Price Index for the Dallas/Ft. Worth
metropolitan area. Additional provisions include a requirement that the contractor obtain
general liability insurance and name the city as additional insured, a prohibition against
selling alcoholic beverages, and a clause allowing the city to cancel the agreement for
non-performance with ten (10) days notice. The agreement is for a period of one year. It
will automatically renew each year thereafter unless either party gives notice by February
15th.
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES: For May 4,
2004.
MAIN AGENDA
CONSIDER BIDS RECEIVED FOR RECONSTRUCTION OF LOVERS LANE,
HILLCREST TO WILLARD: Through an Interlocal Agreement, the City of University
Park and the City of Dallas propose to reconstruct Lovers Lane from its intersection with
Hillcrest to a point about 100' east of Willard. The agreement calls for the city to develop
the plans and specifications, solicit bids, and provide construction administration for the
project. The City of Dallas will reimburse the City of University Park for the work done
within the corporate limits of the city. The construction period will run from June 2004
to October 2005. Each section of construction will last five months. Residents will have
access to their driveways except for a period of 14 days when paving is being done in
front of the home. The agreement will contain a late clause with a penalty of $1500 per
day. As the council was concerned with the lack of experience with large, high-volume
street reconstruction projects of Barson Utilities, Inc. and because of the project
difficulties associated with the quality of work, meeting construction schedules, and
complying with the city's specifications for concrete work of McMahon Contracting,
L.P., the council decided to award the contract to Rebcon, Inc. Councilmember Holmes
moved approval to contract with Rebcon, Inc. Councilmember Shawver seconded, and
the vote was unanimous to approve the contract.
DISCUSS COMMERCIAL BUILDING HEIGHTS ORDINANCE IN SNIDER PLAZA,
MIRACLE MILE AND GENERAL RETAIL DISTRICTS: Council considered changes
which would amend the allowable building heights in Snider Plaza, the Miracle Mile and
General Retail Districts. Input has come from the Planning & Zoning Commission and
commercial property owners. In the General Retail Districts, the Planning & Zoning
Commission had recommended that the current allowance of forty (40) feet, plus an
additional ten (10) feet for equipment and screening, be reduced to an overall maximum
height of forty (40) feet. After receiving input from commercial property owners along
Preston Road, the council had asked staff to determine if additional heights could be
granted along Preston Road for those properties not adjacent to residential districts in
exchange for additional building setback. The change would allow for an additional one
(1) foot in height (above 40 ft.) for every additional one (1) foot of setback beyond the
building line with a maximum height of fifty (50) feet. The provision would be
applicable only for properties not adjacent to residential districts. In Snider Plaza, the
wording allows a maximum height of four (4) stories, which both the City Council and
the Planning & Zoning Commission determined was unacceptable. The proposed
recommendation provides for a maximum height of forty-one (41) feet to the roof, with
an allowance for an additional four (4) feet for equipment and screening. In addition,
maximum wall heights, which may be unique based on the overall design of the building,
will result in new buildings with sloping roofs along Snider Plaza Boulevard. The intent
of this recommendation is to describe the envelope of retail buildings in Snider Plaza and
to allow three floors of space to be occupied, which has been the primary concern of the
commercial property owners there. In the Miracle Mile, the Planning & Zoning
Commission recommended that the current allowable height of two (2) stories be
amended to allow a maximum height of twenty-six (26) feet, with an additional nine (9)
feet allowed for equipment and screening. No concerns have been expressed regarding
this recommendation. Council suggested this item be directed to the Planning & Zoning
Commission for further recommendation.
Mayor Harold Peek then convened the City of University Park City Council into
Executive Session at 8:07 a.m. to receive legal advice from the City Attorney regarding
possible litigation under Section 551.071 of the Texas Government Code. The Executive
Session was adjourned at 8:31 a.m. No action was voted on or taken during the meeting.

Consider Ordinance __ abandoning certain alley and street rights-
of-way in the area bounded by SMU Blvd, Airline Road, McFarlin
Blvd, and Dublin
Background. The City Council previously authorized the rezoning, street
realignment, and screening wall construction in the general area of Dyer and Dublin.
Associated with those actions is the SMU request to abandon Dyer Street, Dublin to
Airline; abandon Dublin, Dyer south to the alley; abandon/accept partial alley R-O-W
bounded by Dyer-Dublin-Airline-SMU; and accept dedication of an SMU residential
property (which will be dedicated as Dublin Street R-O-W between Dyer and
McFarlin). The alley "abandonment and acceptance" is a cleanup issue resulting
from the existing alley pavement being out of the platted R-O-W. The City will retain
a utility easement in the aforementioned Dublin R-O-W, which is recommended for
abandonment.
The cost to SMU for abandoning the above-referenced rights-of-way is identified in
the attached compilation of land acquisitions that have taken place over the past
several years.
Recommendation. Staff recommends City Council approval of abandonment
ordinance for the aforementioned rights-of-way.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council

SUBJECT: Request to Waive Fee for Use of Curtis Park
Attached is a memorandum from Cindy Williams of the University Park Elementary
School PTA requesting waiver of the fee for the use of Curtis Park for a school event.
The memorandum is fairly self-explanatory. The PTA has used the park for this event for
several years. Our records indicate that they have paid a $300 fee plus a $250 security
deposit previously.
The issues outlined in Ms. Williams's memorandum are legitimate. Previous discussions
by the Council and Park Advisory Committee have led to the conclusion that if we do not
charge for use of the parks, they will quickly become the location of choice for many
activities in the Metroplex. This could lead to crowding and our residents finding it
difficult to use their parks. I am not sure what alternatives are available, but I believe it
would be a good idea to examine this issue again and receive a recommendation.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff does not recommend waiver of the fee. However, I also recommend that this issue
be referred to the Park Advisory Committee for review. ! hope that we will have a new
Park Director appointed shortly. That should allow the review to be completed by the
Committee during the next two months.

Dear City Council Members:
University Park Elementary School PTA is making plans for a school picnic on thc
Saturday before school starts. On this day Umversity Park School posts class rosters for
all the classes. These rosters inform thc students of their new teacher and list the names
of classmates in each class. It is a great way to see friends and familiar faces, the
children and their families havc not seen over the summer. It also is a welcoming activity
for new students and theix families, Thc main goal of this event is to get the children
excited about starting school.
I called the Park Department to reserve Curtis Park for Saturday, August 14 from 5:30
p.m. - 7:30 p.m. I spoke to Amber Johnson who is a delight to work with. She said it
would be $550 to reserve Curtis Park for this back to school picnic for approximately 250
people.
I am asking the City Council to waive this f¢¢ for to the following reasons:
, The Parks Department is not providing any additional service except the land.
· The University Park PTA will make sure the park is cleaned, and no trash will be
lei~ for pick up.
· We would like to use the $300 towards educational enhancements to the school
since we continue to have major financial difficulties in our school district.
Plcase consider waiving this fee. Please inform mc of your decision. I can be reached at
214~9S7-26112.
With Much Appreciation,
Cindy Williams
School Sprit Committee Chairperson

Consider Ordinance __ abandoning certain street right-of-way at
the corner of Caruth and Turtle Creek Blvd.
Background. Staff previously reviewed with the City Council a request from
Ray Kane (owner of the property at the northwest corner of Caruth and Turtle Creek
Blvd) for the City to abandon a triangular right-of-way remnant created by realigning
the north side of the intersection. The subject parcel has been surveyed and
appraised. Pursuant to the intersection configuration, the City has no current of
future need for the remnant. The City Attorney is preparing the enabling ordinance
for Council consideration.
The appraised value of the remnant is $45,000. If the Council abandons the parcel,
the City Secretary, upon receipt of the funds from Mr. Kane, will certify a copy of the
ordinance. He then must file the ordinance at Dallas County and have an amending
plat prepared to consolidate his residential lot and the remnant.
Recommendation. Staff recommends City Council approval of abandonment
ordinance for the aforementioned right-of-way remnant.

DEFINITION OF IVIARKET VALUE: The most probable price which a property should bring in a competitive and
open market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller, each acting prudently, knowledgeably
and assuming the price is not affected by undue stimulus. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale
as of a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby: (1) buyer and seller
are typically motivated; (2) both parties arewell informed or well advised, and each acting in what he considers his
own best interest; (3) a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market; (4) payment is made in terms
of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto; and (5) the price represents the
normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions* granted
by anyone associated with the sale.
*Adjustments to the comparables must be made for special or creative financing or sales concessions. No adjustments
are necessary for those costs which are normally paid by sellers as a result of tradition or law in a market area;
these costs are readily identifiable since the seller pays these costs in virtually all sales transactions. Special or
creative financing adjustments can be made to the comparable property by comparisons to financing terms offered
by a thirdparty institutional lender that is not already involved in the property or transaction. Any adjustment
should notbe calculated ona mechanical dollar for dollar cost of the financing or concessions but the dollar
amount of any adjustment should approximate the market's reaction to thefinancing or concessions based on the
appraiser's judgment.
STATEMENT OF LIMITING CONDITIONS AND APPRAISER'S CERTIFICATION
CONTINGENT AND LIMITING CONDITIONS:
is subject to the following conditions:
The appraiser's certification that appears in the appraisal report
1. The appraiser will not be responsible for matters of a legal nature that affect either the property being appraised
or the title to it. The appraiser assumes that the title is good and marketable and, therefore, will not render any
opinions about the title. The property is appraised on the basis of it being under responsible ownership.
2. The appraiser has provided a sketch in the appraisal report to show approximate dimensions of the improvements
and the sketch is included only to assist the reader of the repot[ in visualizing the property and understanding the
appraiser's determination of its size.
3. The appraiser hasexamined theavailable flood maps that are provided by the FederalEmergency Management
Agency (or other datasources) andhas noted in the appraisal report whether the subject site is located in an
identified Special Flood Hazard Area.Because the appraiser is not a surveyor, he or shemakes no guarantees,
express or implied, regarding this determination.
4. The appraiser will not give testimony or appear in court because he or she made an appraisal of the property in
question, unless specific arrangements to do so have been made beforehand.
5. The appraiser has estimated the value of the land in the cost approach at its highest and best use and the
improvements at their contributory value. The separate valuations of the land and improvements must not be
used in conjunction with any other appraisal and are invalid if they are so used.
6. The appraiser has noted in the appraisal repot[ any adverse conditions (such as, needed repairs, depreciation, the
presence of hazardous wastes, toxic substances, etc.) observed during the inspection of the subject property or that
he or she became aware of duringthe normal research involved in performing the appraisal. Unless otherwise stated
in the appraisal report, the appraiser has no knowledge of any hidden or unapparent conditions of the property or
adverse environmental conditions (including the presence of hazardous wastes, toxic substances, etc.) that would
make the proper~y moreor lessvaluable, and has assumed that thereare no such conditionsand makes no
guaranteesor warranties, express or implied, regarding the condition ofthe property. The appraiser will not be
responsible forany such conditions that do exist or for any engineering or testing that might be required to discover
whether suchconditions exist. Because the appraiser is notan expert inthe field of environmental hazards, the
appraisal report must not be considered as an environmental assessment of the property.
7. The appraiser obtained the information, estimates, and opinions that were expressed in the appraisal report from
sources that he or she considers to be reliable and believes them to be true and correct. The appraiser does not
assume responsibility for the accuracy of such items that were furnished by other par~ies.
8. The appraiser will not disclose the contents of the appraisal report except as provided for in the Uniform
Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice.
9. The appraiser has based his or her appraisal repor~ and valuation conclusion for an appraisal that is subject to
satisfactory completion, repairs, or alterations on the assumption that completion of the improvements will be
performed in a workmanlike manner.
10. The appraiser must provide his or her prior written consent before the lender/client specified in the appraisal
report can distribute the appraisal report (including conclusions about the property value, the appraiser's identity
and professional designations, and references to any professional appraisal organizations or the firm with which the
appraiser is associated) to anyone other than the borrower; the mor[gagee or its successors and assigns; the mortgage
insurer; consultants; professional appraisal organizations; any state or federally approved financial institution; or any
department, agency, or instrumentality of the United States or any state or the District of Columbia; except that
the lender/client may distribute the property description section of the reportonlyto data collection or reporting
service(s) without having to obtain the appraiser's prior written consent. The appraiser's written consent and
approval must also be obtained before the appraisal can be conveyed by anyone to the public throughadvertising,
public relations, news, sales, or other media.

APPRAISER'S CERTIFICATION: The Appraiser certifies and agrees that:
1. I have researched the subject market area and have selected a minimum of three recent sales of properties most
similar and proximate to the subject properly for consideration in the sales comparison analysis and have made a
dollar adjustment whenappropriate to reflect the market reaction to those items of significant variation. If a
significant item in a comparable property is superior to, or more favorable than, the subject proper[y, I have made
a negative adjustment to reduce the adjusted sales price of the comparable and, if a significant item in a comparable
property is inferior to, or less favorable than the subject proper[y, I have made a positive adjustment to increase the
adjusted sales price of the comparable.
2. I have taken into consideration the factors that have an impact on value in my development of the estimate of
market value in the appraisal report. I have not knowingly withheld any significant information from the appraisal
report and I believe, to the best of my knowledge, that all statements and information in the appraisal report are
true and correct.
3. I stated in the appraisal report only my own personal, unbiased, and professional analysis, opinions, and
conclusions, which are subject only to the contingent and limiting conditions specified in this form.
4. I have no present or prospective interest in the property that is the subject to this report, and I have no present
or prospective personal interest or bias with respect to the par[ioipants in the transaction. I didnot base, either
partially or completely, my analysis and/or the estimate of market value in the appraisal report on the race, color,
religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin of either the prospective owners or occupants of the subject
proper[y or of the present owners or occupants of the proper[ies in the vicinity of the subject property.
5. I have no present or contemplated future interest in the subject proper[y, and neither my current or future
employment nor my compensation for performing this appraisal is contingent on the appraised value of the property.
6. I was not required to report a predetermined value or direction in value that favors the cause of the client or
any related party, the amount of the value estimate, the attainment of a specific result, or the occurrence of a
subsequenteventin order to receive my compensation and/or employment for performing the appraisal. I did not
base the appraisal repor[ on a requested minimum valuation, a specific valuation, or the need to approve a specific
mortgage loan.
7. I performed this appraisal in conformity with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice that were
adopted and promulgated by the Appraisal Standards Board of The Appraisal Foundation and that were in place as
of the effective date of this appraisal, with the exception of the departure provision of those Standards, which does
not apply. I acknowledge that an estimate of a reasonable time for exposure in the open market is a condition in
the definition of market value and the estimate I developed is consistent with the marketing time noted in the
neighborhood section of this report, unless I have otherwise stated in the reconciliation section.
8. I have personally inspected the interior and exterior areas of the subJect property and the exterior of all properties
listed as oomparables in the appraisal repor[. I further certify that I have noted any apparent or known adverse
conditions in the subject improvements, on the subject site, or on any site within the immediate vicinity of the
subject property of which I am aware and have made adjustments for these adverse conditions in my analysis of
the property value to the extent that I had market evidence to support them. I have also commented about the
effect of the adverse conditions on the marketability of the subJect property.
9. I personally prepared all conclusions and opinions about the real estate that were set forth in the appraisal repor[.
If I relied onsignificant professional assistance from any individual or individuals in the performance of the
appraisal or the preparation of the appraisal repor[, I have named such individual(s) and disclosed the specific tasks
performed by them in thereconciliation section of this appraisal report. I certify that any individual so named is

Request to amend PD-2-R- 4520 Lovers Lane
BACKGROUND:
The Park Cities Animal Hospital, located at 4520 Lovers Lane, received approval from the
Planning & Zoning Commission in November for a sixteen foot addition to the rear of
their space in Planned Development District 2 - Retail (PD-2-R) (Miracle Mile). The
approved addition totaled 477 square feet in area. After further review of their space
needs, the applicant made a request at the April 19, 2004 P&Z meeting for an additional
two feet to the building, for a total addition of 537 square feet. In both cases the
Commission felt that the addition to the building would not have a detrimental impact on
parking, so the request was unanimously approved.
PUBLIC NOTICE: Notice for Public Hearing was advertised in the Park Cities News on
the following dates:
· For P&Z - 3/25/04
· For Council- 5/6/04
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the adopting ordinance amending Planned Development
District 2 - Retail (PD-2-R), for a 537 square foot addition to the building at 4520 Lovers
Lane.

Fernando, was introduced and made a brief statement describing the property in question. Mr.
Hille stated the additional two feet (2') would greatly benefit the addition to the building. He

kennels, which are sixteen feet (16') wide. Mr. Hille stated the parking area would not be
adversely affected by the new addition.
Mr. West closed the public hearing and asked for a motion. Mrs. Humann moved to approve the
request, with a second from Mr. Roach. The motion was approved unanimously.

Honorable Mayor and City Council
Wade McLaurin, Building & Zoning Administrator
Consider request to rezone 5801 Hillcrest from MF-2 to MF-3
BACKGROUND:
At its April 19, 2004 meeting, the Planning & Zoning Commission voted unanimously to
recommend the rezoning of the property at 5801 Hillcrest from Multi Family District 2
(MF-2) to Multi Family District 3 (MF-3). The property is currently owned and
maintained by the Highland Park United Methodist Church. The MF-3 zoning
classification would allow a total of thirteen multi-family units on the property, as opposed
to nine units allowed under the existing MF-2 zoning. A traffic study was presented,
along with a plan showing 26 underground parking spaces. The traffic study noted that
due to the elimination of the surface and street parking, the subject property's location,
and low traffic volume generated by the use, the end result would have a "negligible"
traffic impact. It was also noted by the owner's representative that under the current MF-
2 restriction of nine units, construction of an underground parking structure to serve this
property would not be financially viable. The Commission felt that an underground
parking structure would off-set any negative impact that might result from the increase in
density.
PUBLIC NOTICE: Notice for Public Hearing was advertised in the Park Cities News on

· For Council - 5/6/04
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the adopting ordinance rezoning the subject properties from

RE: Traffic Review for Proposed Zoning Change at 5801 Hillcrest Avenue in
University Park, Texas (DT&A No. 04063)
Dear Wade:
The services of DeShazo, Tang & Associates, Inc. (DT&A) were retained by O'Boyle
Properties, Inc., to provide a professional review of the projected traffic impact
associated with the proposed rezoning of 5801 Hillcrest Avenue &om MF-2 to MF-3.
DT&A is a professional engineerhxg firm based in Dallas, Texas, and skilled in
traffic/transportation engineering.
The subject site is located in the northwest quadrant of the intersection of Hillcrest
Avenue and Potomac Avenue in University Park, Texas. The site currently contains a
six-urdt apartirtent building that has been converted to church dassrooms. Approval of
the zoning change will allow the maximum number of multifamily dwelling units to
increase from nine to thirteen.
DT&A is of the opinion that the net traffic impact resulting &om the requested zoning
change will be negligible due to the very Iow volume of traffic generated. Table 1
(attached) summarizes the weekday daily mtd peak-hour trip generation comparisons of
rite two zoning scenarios based upon the Institute of Transportation Engineers' Trip
Generation manual (7~' Edition). Trip Generation is the standard resource used tn traffic
engineerhtg to calculate projected trip ends generated by- a given use. As shown in
Table 1, the incremental increase in traffic between the existing zoning and the proposed
zoning is nominal.
The existing building will be replaced by new conslnmction providing 13 apartment
units. As shown on rite attached site layout, a below-grade parking lot providing 26
parking spaces is plmmed in accordance with locaI zordng requirements. The site will
be accessed via the existing driveways on Potomac Avenue. Since the existing access
points will be retained, no modifications to the street are required.
Mr. Wade McLaurin
City of Universil~d Park
Mardt 16, 2004

Based upon fl~is review of projected traffic conditions, DT&A finds no significant impact
that would result from the proposed zoning change. Relative to this finding, approval
of the zoning change is respectfully recommended.

May 6, 2004
Honorable Mayor and City Council
City Manager
Kent R. Austin, Director of Finance
Proposal for cable TV franchise renewal advisory group
INTRODUCTION:
As you know, the City's cable TV franchise agreement with Charter Communications
expires in 2005, and the renewal process has begun. In the past, City staff and sometimes
a Council representative have conducted this process. This time, ! propose setting up a
group that would operate similarly to our existing advisory committees. For example, the
Finance Advisory Committee has worked with me on selection of external auditors and
depository banks.
Such an approach would be especially helpful for the cable franchise renewal process. A
Council-appointed group of residents and an ex-officio member from the City Council
would provide the following benefits:
1. Residents, who are also cable TV subscribers, would have a direct means of providing
input to whatever new franchise agreement is reached.
2. Participants would gain an understanding of what the City can and cannot do as a
regulatory authority over cable TV. Many times customers will call to complain about
cable service and demand that the City find a new provider. Resident participation on
an advisory group would help customers understand the complexities and details of the
regulatory and franchise renewal process.
3. The cable TV provider may prove more responsive or interested if they understand
that a group of customers, not just City staff, is involved in the process.
4. The resulting franchise will have greater credibility for having involved customers and
addressing their questions/needs.
RECOMMENDATION
I envision a five- to nine-member group, appointed by the City Council and tentatively
named the Franchise Renewal Advisory Group (FRAG). The group would disband upon
completion of the renewal process. Meetings could be held every month or as needed.
An invitation to apply for the committee could be included in the citizen newsletter, and
City staff could provide some nominees. ! recommend beginning this process now, so that
a committee could begin meeting by August.

TO: Honorable Mayor and Council
FROM: Bob Livingston
SUBJECT: Committee Appointments
The City's statutory committees and citizen advisory committees are comprised of
volunteer residents appointed by the Mayor and Council. The Committee system is
intended to provide an avenue for direct input from citizens, as well as an opportunity for
the City to benefit from the considerable expertise represented by University Park
residents.
The two-year term of appointment corresponds with the bi-annual Council elections;
therefore, Council action is needed to approve the two year appointments for all city
committees.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the approval of the proposed committee appointments as listed.

Consider Change Order No 1, in the amount of $148,033.50, to the
contract with SYB Construction for utility improvements along Lovers
Lane.
Background. At their 12.09.03 meeting, the City Council approved a contract in the
amount of $1,489,258.00 with SYB Construction for utility improvements along Lovers
Lane. That work included a 12" waterline along Lovers from Snider Plaza to Willard, a
16" sanitary sewer (again along Lovers) from Thackery to Hillcrest, and some minor
sanitary sewer work adjacent to the Airline and Boedeker intersections.
We recently discussed the possible future pavement reconstruction of Lovers Lane,
Thackery to Hillcrest. That project could be expedited if the remaining utility work in that
section is completed as part of the current SYB contract. To that end, staff solicited
Change Order No 1 (copy attached) for consideration by Council.
Discussion. Staff would recommend City Council approval of Change Order No 1 in
the amount of $148,033.50 for installation of the 12" waterline along Lovers Lane,
Thackery to Snider Plaza.
