REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
November 10, 1994
10:00 A.M.
The City Council of the City of Lubbock, Texas, met in regular session on the loth
day of November 1994 in the City Council Chambers, first floor, City Hall, 1625
13th Street, Lubbock, Texas, at 10:00 A.M.
Present: Mayor David R. Langston, Mayor Pro Tem Randy Neugebauer,
Councilmember Victor Hernandez, Councilmember T. J. Patterson,
Councilmember Windy Sitton, Councilmember Max L. Ince, Councilmember Alex
Cooke, City Manager Bob Cass, City Attorney John C. Ross, Jr., and City Secretary
Betty M. Johnson.
Mayor Langston called the meeting to order at 10:07 A.M.
(1.) The Invocation was given by Betty M. Johnson, City Secretary.
(2.) Pledge of Allegiance was given in unison by those in the
Council Chambers.
( 3.) Bob Johnson appeared to request two-way traffic on Main
Street, east of Avenue-Q.
Bob Johnson presented a petition to the Mayor on August 17,
1994, signed by a significant number of the business owners on
Main Street (32 signatures). At its October 11, 1994, meeting, the
Citizens Traffic Commission (CTC) recommended tabling action
on this request until the County moved its motor vehicle
registration to the NationsBank building in January or February
1995. Mr. Johnson did not want to wait any longer on this request
and thus appealed the CTC's action to the City Council. Because
1 Oth Street comprises the other half of a one-way pair with Main
Street, the conversion of 1 Oth Street to two-way operation had to
be considered at the same time.
Jere Hart, City Traffic Engineer, indicated that, based on current
traffic volumes, there is adequate capacity to change Main Street
and 1 Oth Street from one-way to two-way traffic. However, the
free flow of traffic during peak periods would be significantly
reduced on Main Street near Avenue Q due to the limited number
of lanes available. The free flow of traffic during peak times
would also be reduced on 1 Oth Street due to only one lane in each
direction for two-way versus three lanes westbound for one-way.
The cost to the City would be approximately $50,000 and would
come from the current unreserved/undesignated account of the
Traffic Control System Capital Projects Fund.
The main benefits of the requested change would be easier access
to the businesses and less confusion to drivers not familiar With the
area. The main disadvantages would be the aiuumn of one lane
traffic, the cost, and less desirable traffic signal progression on
1 Oth Street and Main Street. However, adequate capacity is
available for two-way traffic.

Staff recommended approval of converting both Main Street and
1 Oth Street to two-way operation and the allocation of the
necessary additional funds required.
The following citizens spoke in favor of the conversion:
Rick Chamber, Main Plaza
Buddy Curry, CenterCorp
Jake Webb, Southwestern Public Service
Marc McDougal, McDougal Properties
Dick Walsh, South Plains College
Tom McSpadden requested that the City delay consideration on the
change until the Tax Assessor-Collector's Office moves to the
NationsBank building on Main Street to determine what the traffic
volume will be at that time. Paul Scioli, Chair of the Citizens
Traffic Commission, indicated that the Commission is taking no
position at this time because it hasn't had an opportunity to study
the traffic analysis that was conducted following Mr. Johnson's
original appearance before the Commission.
Mr. Hart provided information on the traffic analysis and reiterated
that the change would not adversely affect traffic flow. Formal
action on this item was taken up in agenda Item #29.
( 4.) Motion was made by Councilmember Cooke, seconded by
Councilmember Hernandez to approve the minutes of the
October 20, 1994, Regular City Council Meeting as written.
Motion carried: 7 Yeas; 0 Nays.
( 5.) Consider the price and condition of sale of Parcel Number
15760-14-30 at 2103 Elm Avenue
This was a routine sale of property by the Urban Renewal Agency
to Drinkard Smart and wife for $400. The proposed sale was
approved by the Urban Renewal Board of Commissioners on
October 18, 1994. The Housing Rehabilitation Section staff
recommended approval.
Motion was made by Councilmember Cooke, seconded by
Councilmember Hernandez to authorize the sale as recommended
by staff. Motion carried: 7 Yeas; 0 Nays.

Installation of automated parking control equipment is a
requirement of the parking lot management concession agreement.
Proposals were considered and Houston Equipment Company was
recommended as the successful vendor. The financial situation of
the Airport Fund does not allow the outright purchase of this
equipment. Therefore, proposals were solicited for financing the
equipment through a lease agreement. Proposals were received
from three companies. Sutro and Company submitted the proposal
with the lowest net cost for leasing the equipment. Their proposal
is based on a net effective rate of 6.34 percent, including all fees.
The term of the lease is 60 months. At the end of the lease term the
equipment will become the property of the City.
Staff recommended approval of the agreement with Sutro and
Company for the lease of the equipment

ALLOCATING FUNDS. (SEE SECTION ONE OF THIS ORDINANCE FOR UNITS
DELETED BY CITY COUNCIL).
On August 25, 1994, the City Council conducted a public hearing
to consider paving assessments for three alleys and three streets
and conducted the first of three readings required for the paving
assessment ordinance.
After the public hearing, the Council made the following decisions
relative to these alleys and streets.
672
City Council Minutes
November 10,1994
Page 673
A. Unit A-461-34 — The north -south alley between York
Avenue and Wayne Avenue from 4th Street to York
Avenue.
Unit A-461-35 — The north -south alley between York
Avenue and Zoar Avenue from 4th Street to York Avenue.
Unit A-461-36 — The east -west alley between F.M. 1730
(Slide Road) and Zoar Avenue and between 75th Street and
76th Street.
Unit 2035-96 20th Street from Kewanee Avenue to Juneau
Avenue.
The recommendation was to pave these units as indicated on the
plans and assess the abutting property owners at the calculated rate
(90 percent of the paving cost and 100 percent of the curb and
gutter cost) if the majority of the owners will execute an agreement
stating that they believe the enhancement value is equal to the
assessment rate set by the City Council.
The required agreement has been signed and returned by property
owners as follows:
Unit A-461-34
Unit A-461-35
Unit A-461-36
Unit 2035-96
75% Signed
77% Signed
83% Signed
73% Signed
B. Unit 2035-94 Frankford Avenue from 66th Street to 82nd
Street.
Unit 2035-95 98th Street from Indiana Avenue to Slide
Road.
The recommendation was to pave these units as indicated on the
plans and assess the abutting property owners at the enhancement
rate as determined by the appraiser with the exception of Parcel
#11 of Unit 2035-95, which is to be assessed at the calculated rate.
The enhancement value exceeded the calculated rate for this parcel.
For the second reading, staff recommended that the ordinance be
considered for approval. This action would leave all the units on
the program. The council will consider the third and final reading
of this ordinance after bids are received for construction of these
streets and alleys.
Motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Neugebauer, seconded by
Councilmember Patterson to pass on second reading Ordinance
#9730 as recommended by staff. Motion carried: 4 Yeas; 0 Nays--
Councilmember Sitton, Councilmember Hernandez and
Councilmember Cooke were absent from Council Chambers.

Mayor Pro Tem Neugebauer opened the public hearing at 10:52

Ken Flagg appeared on behalf of American State Bank/McDougal
Development to present this request for zone change from R-1 to
AM Specific Use (for a branch bank) and R-1 Specific Use (for
garden homes). No one appeared in opposition. Mayor Pro Tern
Neugebauer closed the public hearing at 10:56 a.m.
Randy Henson, Senior Planner, presented staff comments. The
subdivision between Toledo and Vicksburg was platted from 4th to
19th Street in the early 1950s. Mr. Henson gave the adjacent land
uses as follows:
North -4th Street, approximately half commercial and half
residential
South -the row of lots south of 5th Street to be developed
as single family
East - single family
West - an apartment complex
A majority of the existing lots are proposed as residential, with the
north area planned as garden homes. The request for the branch
bank is a minor change to the Comprehensive Land Use Plan. The
sign proposed on the site plan is compatible with the AM District.
The site plan also proposes a seven -foot brick fence between the
branch bank and the new residential to the east. The developer is
protecting the land uses on both sides of the fence.
The Planning Commission recommended approval of the zone
change. The staff supported the recommendation of the Planning
& Zoning Commission.

Tom Anagnostis appeared on behalf of J J & W, Inc., to present
this request for zone change from R-3 to C-4. No one appeared in
opposition. Mayor Langston closed the public hearing at 11:02
a.m.
Randy Henson, Senior Planner, presented staff comments. The
property was previously a trailer park and has a history of
environmental and zoning violations. The new owners have
cleared and cleaned up the property. Mr. Henson gave the adjacent
land uses as follows:
North - heavy commercial
South - high density residential zoning
East - commercial and single family
West - heavy commercial
The proposal is consistent with adjacent zoning and uses. The
proposed permitted use list eliminates 17 of the heavier C-4 uses.
The proposal should have little or no effect on the overall
thoroughfare system.
The Planning Commission recommended this request as C-4
subject to the following permitted uses:
1. Any use conditionally or unconditionally permitted in the
"C-2A," "C-2," or "C-3" Districts.

Med Hunt appeared on behalf of K & K Properties to present this
request for zone change from C-4 to C-4 Specific Use (for mini -
warehouses). No one appeared in opposition. Mayor Langston
closed the public hearing at 11:21 a.m.
Randy Henson, Senior Planner, presented staff comments. Mini -
warehouse projects require a Specific Use permit in C-4. The
property currently is zoned C-4 for a heavy commercial shopping
center. Mr. Henson gave the adjacent land uses as follows:
North - vacant commercial
South - vacant commercial
East - residential
West - commercial (another mini -warehouse project)
According to staff memo, the request is consistent with both
Comprehensive Land Use policy and the development guidelines
within the Zoning Code for mini -warehouse development except
for the portion which recommended that mini -warehouse projects
not abut a street that is the boundary of an R-1 or R-2 Zoning
District.
The current C-4 zoning allows a number of heavy commercial uses
that could be considered less compatible with residential than the
proposed mini -warehouses. The site plan proposes a 46-foot
r landscape buffer on the La Salle side. The proposal should have
little effect on traffic.
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of
the request. The staff supported the recommendation of the

(27.) Hold a public hearing to consider an appeal of denial by the
Planning_and Zoning Commission for deletion of the RV
Ordinance,
Mayor Langston opened the public hearing at 11:39 a.m. and then
called for a recess at 12:05 p.m. The meeting reconvened at 1:32
p.m.
The following citizens appeared in favor of deletion of the RV
Ordinance: Billy Sims, JoAnn Garoutte, Nancy Pritchett, Cecil
Puryear, Jack Harkins, Ken Phillips, Mary Marlene Moore, Mikel
Ward, Alvin Ceswater, and Betty Harkins. These citizens'
opposition concentrated on property owners' rights, lack of
evidence that accidents have been caused by RVs parked in
residential areas, unwillingness of RV owners to recommend
Lubbock as an RV rally or convention site because of the RV
Ordinance, and inconvenience and vandalism problems with
parking RVs in off -site storage facilities.
The following citizens appeared in opposition to deletion of the
RV Ordinance: Bob Schmidt, H. B. Reaves, and Merle Blosser.
Their testimony concentrated on the extensive research that went
into passage of the RV Ordinance and the negative effect of non-
conforming circumstances (such as RVs) on property values.
Mayor Langston closed the public hearing at 2:17 p.m.
Randy Henson, Senior Planner, presented staff comments. In 1986
and 1987, a citizen group was appointed to review the
circumstances of parking for recreational vehicles in single family
areas of Lubbock. Since 1941, residential single-family units have
been built on lots with a required front setback, most commonly 25
feet. Some of the older subdivisions were built with 32 feet of
setback.
The purpose of the front setback in the single family Zoning
District is related to several of the stated purposes of the Zoning
Code:
1. To provide adequate light and air
2. To prevent the overcrowding of structures
3. To provide safety from fire and other dangers
4. To promote and protect the aesthetic quality of the city
The original deliberations of the Planning Commission and City
Council, during a series of hearings, focused primarily on the
safety aspects of placing these often large vehicles within the front
yard setback. Testimony at those hearings clearly and accurately
represented that often there are other visual obstructions in front
yards that create view obstructions, but the Commission and
Council stayed the course that staff were only discussing RVs
during consideration of this ordinance.

City Council Minutes
November 10,1994
Page 683
A series of photographic studies in preparation for the 1987
hearing verified that a typical length RV parked in the driveway at
most Lubbock homes would cause the rear end of a car leaving that
driveway, or the drive next door, to be at least across the sidewalk.
if not actually in the street, before the driver would be able to see
up and down the street. This visual obstruction is a hazard for both
users of the sidewalk and vehicles passing on the street.
Aesthetic concerns were expressed during the hearings also, with
many of the telephone calls to staff members supporting the
passage of the ordinance because of the callers' dislike of the looks
of an RV in their neighborhood. However, many of the callers
would not openly support the ordinance because they did not want
to be in an adversarial relationship with their neighbors who are
RV owners and who are otherwise very good neighbors.
Important events that have taken place since 1986 include:
1. 1986-87 - original study and hearings.
2. In August/September, 1987 - Ordinance No. 9092 was
made a part of the Zoning Code.
3. The September 1987 deadline was included in Ordinance
9045 for all vehicles, including RVs, to be parked on a
paved surface in the front yard.
4. The December 1988 deadline was established, after which a
new RV could not be placed in the front setback of the lot.
This 15-month window allowed those who wished to use
the five year compliance period to either ease into the
ordinance or amortize parking pad expense.
5. December 31, 1992, is the date which has generated these
discussions. On January 1, 1993, no recreational vehicle,
oversized recreational equipment or trailer was supposed to
be parked in the front yard setback in single-family
residential areas.
6. In August and September 1992 approximately 600+ letters
of information were mailed to owners of property where
RV units were parked.
7. In August, 1992 - a newspaper insert was in the Avalanche
Journal which included information about the upcoming
deadline.
In October and November 1992, the staff completed a review of
the Ordinance with the Zoning Board of Adjustment, since
variance requests are heard by the ZBA. To date, approximately
20 requests for variances based on hardships or peculiarities of the
parcel have been presented to the ZBA. The function of the ZBA
is to hear and weigh requests to vary the Zoning Code, and many
of the hardship cases have been approved. The Zoning Board of
Adjustment considers remaining setback and is very sensitive to
neighborhood comments.
City Council Minutes
November 10,1994
Page 684
A major issue was made during the Planning Commission hearing
that these restrictions are not in force in other cities. A phone poll
conducted on October 20, 1994, by Randy Henson revealed the
following information (* notes control of RVs):
Abilene — no control
Amarillo — no control
Arlington — RVs up to 30 feet allowed on paved surface,
all of the RVs must be on private property
Corpus Christi — no control - parking on paved required
*Dallas — no trailers (RVs included), in front yard setback
*Grand Prairie — no trailers (including RVs), in front yard
*Midland — no RVs and most trailers allowed in front yard
setback
Odessa — no control
*Plano — normally not allowed. Can be stored in front
yard under certain conditions.
The Planning Department is of the opinion that the ordinance is an
asset to the Community for the sake of both safety and aesthetics
and proposed no amendment to the Code. If for any reason
Council wants to amend or repeal the ordinance, it will be brought
back at a subsequent Council meeting. With a denial of the request
to change the zoning code by the Planning Commission, a 6/7 vote
of the Council is required to overrule the Commission (whether to
delete the ordinance or to amend the ordinance).
City Attorney John Ross spoke to the constitutionality of the
Ordinance, stating that the constitutionality of the Ordinance must
be decided in a court of law, not by the City Council.
Mr. Henson confirmed that violations of the RV Ordinance are
responded to on a complaint basis. He further indicated that the
Zoning Board of Adjustment (ZBA) hears requests for variances to
the Ordinance and that ZBA has granted numerous variances.
Councilmember Hernandez voiced his opposition to the RV
Ordinance, stating that he believes the only meritorious argument
for the Ordinance is to promote and protect the aesthetic quality of
the City, but the argument is not of sufficient magnitude to warrant
upholding the RV Ordinance.
Motion was made by Councilmember Patterson, seconded by
Mayor Pro Tern Neugebauer to uphold the RV Ordinance as
recommended by the Planning and Zoning Commission and City
staff. Motion carried: 6 Yeas; 1 Nay--Councilmember Hernandez.

Larry Hertel, City Engineer, presented staff comments. On January
27, 1994, the City staff made a presentation to the City Council to
review and prioritize possible drainage projects that could be
funded with revenues from the Storm Water Utility. The
preparation of the Master Drainage Plan and the Drainage Manual
was listed as the highest rated priority project, based on current
drainage needs and on recommendations by the Playa

Lake/Drainage Study Committee and the Storm Water Advisory
Committee. The City Council concurred with this
recommendation and authorized City staff to proceed with the
preparation of a Request for Proposal (RFP) to select an
engineering firm to provide the required professional services. The
Council also authorized $500,000 to fund this project with
revenues from the Storm Water Utility.
RFPs were issued by the Purchasing Department, with the deadline
for response set for May 11, 1994. A review committee was
appointed by City Manager Bob Cass. Parkhill, Smith & Cooper,
Inc. (PSC) was recommended to provide the requested professional
services. Consequently, the staff proceeded with contract
negotiations.
Based on the RFP requirements, the staff requested PSC to submit
a cost proposal including the undeveloped and partially developed
areas of the city and its ETJ. This corresponded to approximately
250 square miles. PSC's proposal was over $1.4 million, which
greatly exceeded the funds allocated for this project. After careful
examination of this proposal and several negotiations with PSC,
the staff asked PSC to submit a second proposal with reduced
project areas, scope of work, and several person -hour allocation
adjustments. Also, PSC was requested to submit separate
proposals for some project areas that could be added to this second
proposal, should the Council authorize additional funding for this
project. After PSC submitted this new proposal, the staff again
examined them in detail and held several meetings with PSC until
an agreement on cost and scope of work was reached. The
following is a summary of project areas and cost of services.
A. Basic Engineering Services
The Basic Engineering Services include:
1. Aerial Mapping Assistance $3,823

staff comments. Recent changes in federal statutes (RCRA,
Subtitle D) are altering the manner in which liquid waste produced
by various commercial operations with the City are handled. Prior
to passage of these regulations, the landfill received approximately
19,000 gallons of waste grease per day. The new regulations have
prohibited the acceptance of this type of waste at the landfill since
October 9, 1993. As a result, the cost of disposing grease trap
waste by commercial and industrial users has increased
substantially.
As a result of increased disposal costs, many grease producers
(primarily food establishments) have elected to simply let grease
accumulate in their grease traps and then flow into the wastewater
collection system. Since the imposition of Subtitle D landfill
regulations, the amount of grease received at the landfill has fallen
from 19,000 gallons per day to approximately 4,000 gallons per
day. It is assumed that the difference (15,000 gallons per day) is
entering wastewater collection system and the wastewater
treatment plant. Grease waste which enters the wastewater
treatment plant interferes with the treatment processes and has
contributed to TNRCC permit violations. TNRCC noted in a
recent inspection of Lubbock's Southeast Water Reclamation Plant
that grease is becoming a problem. Furthermore, pending
legislation will soon empower the TNRCC and EPA to levy new
fines for sewer system overflows due to sewer line blockages from
grease or other material.
�. In response to this problem, the staff proposed a change in the
sewer ordinance. The ordinance currently limits the discharge of
fats, oils, and grease into the wastewater collection system to 100
milligrams per liter. Staff recommended that this limit be raised
to 250 milligrams per liter. This is a reasonable limit which is
attainable by users and which will protect the wastewater system.
In addition to the proposed ordinance change, staff recommended
revising the process associated with enforcement of the ordinance.
The current enforcement process takes approximately 90 days.
Some users temporarily comply long enough for the 90-day
process to begin again. Thus, many of the violations are of a
recurring nature. The proposed enforcement process reduces the
time to comply to 10 days. The new process allows the users
sufficient time to correct the problem which discourage repeat
offenders through fines levied by the Municipal Court Judge. Staff
contacted the Legal Department and the Municipal Court Judge
about the proposed program and both indicated that this was a legal
and workable approach to solving the grease problem. No
ordinance changes are necessary for this program and this approach
can be applied to other aspects of the Sewer Ordinance as required
to ensure compliance.

In an effort to inform the businesses potentially impacted by this
change the staff met with the Lubbock Restaurant Association
executive board on October 5, 1994. Following this meeting,
information was provided to the association for their newsletter to
explain both the problems associated with grease and
recommended solutions. On October 18, 1994, approximately 750
letters were sent to local businesses which may be impacted by the
proposed changes. Following this mailout, the staff received
approximately 10 telephone inquiries concerning the proposal,
primarily concerning sampling locations, or other technical
questions.
Staff recommended this ordinance amendment.
Chris Lonngren, President of the Restaurant Association, indicated
that he was initially concerned about the period for compliance
prior to a citation being issued but that the City staff has clarified
the procedures and he has no opposition to the ordinance
amendment. Mr. Lonngren complimented the City staff on their
spirit of cooperation with the restaurant community.
Motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Neugebauer, seconded by
Councilmember Patterson to pass on first reading Ordinance 99757
