According to staff memo, in 1986, Lubbock Power & Light

Wilkerson for a zoning change from R-3 to M-1 on 3.943 acres
of land out of Section 7, Block B, and to consider ordinance.

CHANGES: ZONE CASE NO. 2786; A ZONING CHANGE FROM R-3 TO M-1
ZONING ON 3.943 ACRES OF LAND OUT OF SECTION 7, BLOCK B, LUBBOCK,
TEXAS; PROVIDING A PENALTY; PROVIDING A SAVINGS CLAUSE AND
PROVIDING FOR PUBLICATION.
Mayor Pro Tern Cooke opened the public hearing at 10:30 a.m.
John Wilkerson appeared to present this request for zone change
from R-3 to M-1. No one appeared in opposition. Mayor Pro Tern
Cooke closed the hearing at 10:32 a.m.
Randy Henson, Senior Planner, presented staff comments. The
existing R-3 zoning is inconsistent with the immediate area, most
of which is zoned M-1. Mr. Henson gave the adjacent land use
relationships as follows:
North - heavy commercial and industrial
South - vacant (zoned M-1)
East - single family (zoned R-3 and M-1)
West - vacant and single family (zoned M-1 and R-3)
The Comprehensive Land Use Plan for this area indicates
"Commercial" which is comparable to the heavy commercial/light
industrial uses in the area. The proposal is consistent with the
intent of the Plan. The area has some non -conforming residential,
particularly on Avenue B to the east, but that land area is zoned
M-1 and R-3. The remaining single family units are non-
conforming. The change should have little or no effect on traffic.
The Planning Commission recommended approval of the request.
Staff supported the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning
Commission.
Motion was made by Councilmember Patterson, seconded by
Councilmember Ince to pass on first reading Ordinance No. 9960
as recommended by P&Z and City staff. Motion carried: 5 Yeas; 0
Nays.
(26.) Zone Case No. 2161-F (south of 82nd Street and east of

Mayor Pro Tern Cooke opened the public hearing at 10:33 a.m.
Don Rushing appeared on behalf of Lubbock Commercial
Buildings, Inc., to present this request for a zone change from R-1
to GO. No one appeared in opposition. Mayor Pro Tern Cooke
closed the hearing at 10:35 a.m.
Randy Henson, Senior Planner, presented staff comments. This
parcel is the last in a row of lots along 82nd Street west of Boston
to have a change requested from the original R-1. This request is
for garden office zoning. Mr. Henson gave the adjacent land use
relationships as follows:
North - professional offices
South - residential - vacant
East - vacant - commercial
West - residential
In a series of zone changes south of 82nd and west of University,
the Comprehensive Land Use Plan has been amended to match the
north side from University to Elgin Avenue. The portion north of
82nd Street was strip zoned for offices in 1981. The ordinance
recommended by the Planning Commission contains a statement
that the request is a minor change to the Comprehensive Land Use
Plan.
The GO District is considered a buffer zone within the zoning
code. As such, the request is consistent with zoning policies. The
residential on the west will be buffered by this parcel from the C-2
to the east. The proposal will have little or no effect on traffic.
The Planning Commission recommended approval of the request.
Staff supported the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning
Commission.
Motion was made by Councilmember Patterson, seconded by
Councilmember Ince to pass on first reading Ordinance No. 9961

Mayor Pro Tern Cooke opened the public hearing at 10:36 a.m. No
one appeared on behalf of Mr. Postman, Inc., to present this
request for zone change from R-1 to C-4. No one appeared in
opposition. Mayor Pro Tern Cooke closed the hearing at 10:37 a.m.
Randy Henson, Senior Planner, presented staff comments. The
request is to provide for commercial zoning along 19th Street west
of Alcove from the R-1 that was assigned to the property when the
area was annexed. Mr. Henson gave the adjacent land use
relationships as follows:
North - commercial
South - vacant
East - commercial
West - vacant
The proposal is reasonably consistent with the Comprehensive
Land Use Plan. The dimension along 19th Street is outside of the
660' x 660' policy (10 acres) for commercial at corners of major
thoroughfares, but existing commercial north of 19th Street
suggests that the theoretical ten acres per corner at major
intersections will be somewhat distorted.
Subject to consideration of the west 19th Street policy for C-4,
which has a strike list indicated within the recommendation of the
Planning Commission, this request is consistent with zoning
policy. The strike list and site plan review requirement have been
used within all zone cases on west 19th Street since 1984 when the
area was annexed. The proposal should have little effect on the
thoroughfare system.
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended the request
subject to the following conditions:
The C-4 uses shall be limited to:
Automobile Body Shops;
Billboards;
Commercial Private Clubs and Teenage Clubs;
Dancehall;
Feed Store;
Used Furniture Store;
Gameroom (except as an incidental use in a restaurant),
Pool, Billiard and/or Domino Parlor;
Motorcycle Shop;
Second-hand Goods Store and Pawn Shop;
Used Car Lot; and

Nightclubs.
A site plan, including building elevations showing materials,
color and texture, shall be submitted and approved by the
Planning and Zoning Commission prior to the issuance of a
Building Permit.
Staff supported the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning
Commission.
Motion was made by Councilmember Hernandez to table this item
until the next Regular City Council Meeting. Motion died due to
the lack of a second.
Motion was made by Councilmember Neugebauer, seconded by
Councilmember Patterson to pass on first reading Ordinance No.
9962 with conditions as recommended by P&Z and City staff.

(28.) Hold a public hearing to discuss consolidation of the

ORDINANCE NO.9963
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 2 OF THE CODE OF
ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK, TEXAS WITH REGARD TO
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND SERVICES BOARD; DEFINITION,
CREATION AND OFFICIAL DESIGNATION; COMPOSITION AND
APPOINTMENT AND TERMS OF MEMBERS; EX-OFFICIO MEMBERS;
CHAIRMAN SECRETARY, AND RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS; POWERS AND
DUTIES; MEETINGS; QUORUM AND VOTING; CONFLICT OF INTEREST; THE
DELETION AND RESERVATION OF SECTIONS 2-143, 2-144, 2-145, AND 2-146;
PROVIDING A SAVINGS CLAUSE; AND PROVIDING FOR PUBLICATION.
Mayor Pro Tern Cooke opened the public hearing at 10:40 a.m.
Doug Goodman appeared on behalf of consolidating the
Community Development Advisory Committee and the
Community Services Commission. No one appeared in opposition.
Mayor Pro Tern Cooke closed the hearing at 10:47 a.m.
The idea of board consolidations first arose at the City Council
retreat in 1993. In 1994, the departments of Community
Development and Community Services combined and began
consolidating missions, goals, and objectives. In 1996, the staff
realized that the two boards which oversaw the activities of the
state and federal grants in the community development department
had common work, just different funding sources.
While discussing this issue separately, both the Community
Services Commission (CSC) and the Community Development
Advisory Committee (CDAC) also thought that the two boards
overlapped in purpose. The two groups met together on September
10, 1996, and after much discussion requested that the staff initiate
a plan to consolidate the two boards. On September 25, 1996, the
CSC voted to recommended a freezing of positions on their board
and on October 1, 1996, the CDAC voted to recommended the
same. On October 7, 1996, the two groups reconvened to review
752
City Council Minutes
December 19, 1996
Page 753
consolidation issues of purpose/mission, diversity, subcommittees,
optimal size, and possible make-up of the new board.
Recommendations from this group were brought back to the CSC
and the CDAC were passed unanimously.
The board recommended the following changes to the code
(Article V, Section 2-134 through 2-146) to consolidate these two
boards:
The Board be composed of 17 members.
The composition should be five public officials or their
representatives, six citizens representing the poor, and six
citizens representing private interests.
Chair and Secretary will be elected by the membership.
Subcommittees will be created as necessary.
Terms of members will be three years.
Other changes to the ordinance were to standardize this section to
mirror other sections regarding boards.
In keeping with the concept of streamlining, Staff supported the
recommended changes to the ordinance and the consolidation of
these two boards. Further, staff recommended that the size of the
new board be achieved through attrition of members as
resignations and terms expire. Finally, staff recommended that
Council consider directing staff to pursue additional consolidation
opportunities with other City boards.
Motion was made by Councilmember Neugebauer, seconded by
Councilmember Patterson to pass on first reading Ordinance No.
9963 as recommended by staff. Motion carried: 5 Yeas; 0 Nays.
(29.) Consider Resolution No. 5376 authorizing the Mayor Pro Tem
to execute a contract with Parkhill, Smith and Cooper, Inc., for
professional engineering services to develop an alternatives
analysis (Phase I) for storm drainage relief for Clapp Park,
Ribble Park, Kmart/Casey Park Lake, the Trinity Church
Lake, and the Leftwich Park Lake.
RESOLUTION NO. 5376
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK:
THAT the Mayor of the City of Lubbock BE and is hereby authorized and

herewith, by and between the City of Lubbock and Parkhill, Smith & Cooper, Inc. for
Engineering Services, which Agreement shall be spread upon the minutes of the Council

A copy of the Agreement with Parkhill, Smith & Cooper, Inc. is filed with Resolution
5376.
Larry Hertel, City Engineer, presented staff comments. Following
numerous work session presentations and discussions regarding the
major drainage projects within the City that need to be
accomplished in order to provide flood relief to those citizens
living in and around flood prone areas, the Storm Water
Management Section was instructed to begin the process of
obtaining an engineering firm to develop alternatives and design a
storm drainage structure between Clapp Park and the North Fork of
the Double Mountain Fork of the Brazos River. The Request for
Proposals (RFP), issued on August 9, 1996, also included the
development of alternatives that will provide additional storage
and a reduction in flood risks for the chain of playa lakes located in
south and central Lubbock. The upstream lakes included in the
RFP were Ribble Park Lake, the Kmart/Casey Park Lake, the
Trinity Church Lake, and the Leftwich Park Lake.
A Consultant Selection Committee was appointed and met several
times to finalize a recommendation to the City Council. The
Committee recommended that Parkhill, Smith and Cooper, Inc. be
engaged to perform the engineering services for the Clapp Park and
upstream lakes drainage project based on the following reasons:
This firm has particular expertise for this type of project
including the modeling of playa lakes, familiarity with the playa
lake systems and how they work, and the previous work done in
these drainage areas.
The firm is very reputable in this particular field.
The firm has experience in working with City of Lubbock staff.
754
City Council Minutes
December 19, 1996
Page 755
The teams' general project approach showed that the firm has a
definite understanding of the project.
Much of the prior information collected and that would be
necessary for completion of this project was done by Parkhill,
Smith and Cooper, Inc. or Hugo Reed and Associates.
The contract has broken up into two phases. Phase I is the
alternative analysis, "fatal flaw" investigations, and estimates of
costs and benefits for each recommended alternative. Phase II will
be the actual engineering design and specification preparation for
the approved alternative. Highlights of the Phase I contract before
the City Council are as follows:
Evaluating existing information including existing storm
sewers, the 1988 Playa Lakes Study, the I.H. 27 storm sewer,
and the Trinity Church Storm Sewer Study previously
performed.
A model of the south Lubbock playa lakes chain to determine
the existing conditions, a future "no action" condition, and the
best overall project that will provide the greatest amount of
relief in the project area.
Coordination and establishment of all underground utilities
within the proposed routes.
A flood damage analysis.
A look at alternative construction methods.
Opinion of probable cost.
Participation in neighborhood meetings and the holding of one
public meeting.
Regulatory agency coordination.
An investigation of deep well injection.
A final report and Council presentation.
The total contract amount for Phase I of the project is a not to
exceed the amount of $408,181. This is approximately 3.8 percent
of the estimated construction cost of $11,000,000. The
engineering costs for Phase II will be dependent upon the City
Council's approval of the recommended alternative and the
estimated construction costs associated with the recommended
alternative.
This contract amount does fall within the reasonableness
guidelines for a formula developed by the Texas Society of
Professional Engineers for calculating engineering fees related to
services for construction projects.
Staff recommended approval of this contract. If approved, the final
report should be presented to the City Council in September 1997.
Upon approval and authorization to proceed with the engineering
design and specifications (Phase II) of the recommended
755

alternative, a contract for engineering services will be negotiated
with Parkhill, Smith and Cooper, Inc., or another firm will be
selected to perform this work.

Larry Hertel, City Engineer, presented staff comments. Capital
budget for 1996-1997 did not include a capital project for the
alternatives analysis and design of the Clapp Park and upstream
overflow lakes flood relief project. This would establish a project
in the budget that would include the following:
Professional Services $490,000
Perm Full Time Sal 10,000
Total $500,000
The $500,000 will include enough for Phase I (alternatives
analysis) of the project and some preliminary work on Phase II
(design and specifications). This budget will be amended at a later
date when the negotiations for Phase II, if approved by the City
Council, are nearing completion.
The funds for this project will come from the Storm Water Utility
Fund.
