Ordinance No. 2006-00039 Consider ordinance amending Article I of
Chapter 6 of the City of Lubbock Code of Ordinances for the purpose of
adjusting commercial building permit fees.
ORDINANCE NO.2006-00039
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ARTICLE I OF CHAPTER 6 OF THE CODE
OF ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK, TEXAS WITH REGARD TO
PERMIT FEES; PROVIDING A PENALTY; PROVIDING A SAVINGS CLAUSE;
AND PROVIDING FOR PUBLICATION.
At the January 12, 2006 City Council Work Session, staff proposed a strategic
improvements plan for the Building Inspection Department and the Fire
Marshal's Office involving increased expenditures for additional staffing and
resources through FY 2009-10. The plan identified growth induced challenges
and various action steps designed to improve public safety, retain and improve
the City of Lubbock's rating under the Insurance Services Office Building
Code Effectiveness Grading Schedule, and to provide for service level
enhancements and efficiency improvements. The multi -year fiscal impact of
the expanded programs was also discussed, as well as the status of current
revenues generated from fees. With residential fees at maximum levels,
Council directed staff to explore options for adjustments to commercial permit
fees in order to offset proposed program costs. During the January 26, 2006
City Council Work Session, staff proposed commercial permit fee adjustments
that increase new construction permit fees from $0.10 to $0.20 per square foot
and increase commercial remodeling fees from $1.50 to $2.25 per $1,000
valuation. Council then directed staff to meet with local commercial
contractors concerning the increases prior to placement of the item on a
Regular Agenda and authorized the City Manager to begin advertising for
positions associated with the program proposals for the current fiscal year.
On February 16, 2006 staff met with 11 contractors of the 49 who had been
invited to meet and presented the program proposal as well as the proposed
fee adjustments. The vast majority of those in attendance did not disagree with
either the program proposals or the proposed fee adjustments.
353
Regular City Council Meeting
April 13, 2006
Page 354
Enhancement of these programs should result in increased levels of public
safety, improved customer service delivery, and improvement of City of
Lubbock scores under the Insurance Services Office's Building Code
Effectiveness Grading Schedule.
Subsequent to the first reading of the ordinance, Council members asked staff
to compare the proposed fee increases to the fee structures of other Texas
cities of similar population and with similar growth pressures. Also, in order
to obtain a more accurate picture of the impact of fees upon projects of
varying size and valuation, staff was directed to work with the West Texas
Homebuilders Association in developing multiple building scenarios for
comparison of "average" commercial fees among the various sample cities.
The data is presented here as additional back up.
FISCAL IMPACT
Mid -year program implementation is anticipated to cost $175,051, while the
mid -year fee adjustment is anticipated to generate an additional $180,938.
Combined operating budgets will be approximately $2.8 million in
FY 2006-07, increasing to approximately $3.9 million by FY 2009-10,
including a 3.15% annual inflation factor. Construction driven revenue
growth, based on historical data, is conservatively estimated at l l % overall
and 30% for the commercial sector. With no further fee adjustments, revenues
are estimated to be sufficient to cover the cost of these programs through FY
2009-10, while also reducing the annual shortfall presently absorbed by the
General Fund.
The fee structure and operating budgets will be reviewed annually during the
budget development process to ensure program goals are being met and the
fees are generating sufficient funding.
Staff recommended approval of the second reading of this ordinance.
5.2. Code of Ordinances Ordinance 2nd Reading - Health: Ordinance No.
2006-00037 Consider an ordinance amending Chapter 12 of the Code of
Ordinances with regard to definitions related to public swimming pools
and spas, adoption of standards for public swimming pools and spas,
issuance of permits and fees for public swimming pools and spas, plans
and specifications for public swimming pools and spas, providing a
savings clause, providing a penalty, and providing for publication.
ORDINANCE NO.2006-00037
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 12 OF THE CODE OF
ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK, TEXAS, WITH REGARD TO
DEFINITIONS RELATED TO PUBLIC SWIMMING POOLS AND SPAS;
ADOPTION OF STANDARDS FOR PUBLIC SWIMMING POOLS AND SPAS;
ISSUANCE OF PERMITS AND FEES FOR PUBLIC SWIMMING POOLS AND
SPAS; PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR PUBLIC SWIMMING POOLS AND
SPAS; PROVIDING A SAVINGS CLAUSE; PROVIDING A PENALTY; AND
PROVIDING FOR PUBLICATION.
The first reading of this ordinance passed 7-0 at the March 23, 2006 City
Council Meeting.
The City of Lubbock permits approximately 300 public and semi-public
swimming pools and spas annually. They are inspected for health and safety
issues according to the Texas Rules for Swimming Pools and Spas, adopted
into City Ordinance in 2001. In 2004 and 2005, the Texas Department of State
Health Services updated the Swimming Pool and Spa Rules. The City of
Lubbock submits the updated Rules with minor changes so that consistency
may be maintained between regulatory agencies. These rules address
minimum standards for design and construction of pools and spas including
minimum operating standards to ensure proper filtration, chemical content,
general maintenance of water, and safety to users.
The most significant change to the rules involves suction outlets and return
inlets designed to protect against a suction entrapment, evisceration, or hair
354
Regular City Council Meeting
April 13, 2006
Page 355
entrapment/entanglement hazard by requiring approved suction outlet covers
and grates, upgrades to suction outlet systems, anti -vacuum systems or safety
vacuum release systems, and closure of those pools with defective suction
outlet systems.
Other changes to the rules include a requirement that all new pools and spas
must have properly stamped and engineered plans from a professional
engineer or registered architect showing that the pool or spa is designed and
built in compliance with federal, state, and local regulatory requirements.
This will help ensure that all pools and spas are properly constructed before
use.
The City of Lubbock Board of Health has approved the updates to the
ordinance and the Lubbock Apartment Association has already implemented
the rules.
Section 1 of the ordinance provides for definitions. Section 2 of the ordinance
adopts standards for public swimming pools and spas. Section 3 discusses
permits and fees. Section 4 specifies that all pools and spas must have
properly stamped engineered plans from a registered professional engine or
registered architect showing that the pool or spa is designed and built in
compliance with standards. Section 5 discusses punishable fines. Section 6
provides for continuance of the remainder of the ordinance if any section is
declared invalid for any reason and Section 7 allows for publication.
FISCAL IMPACT
Recommended changes are only technical in nature and have no anticipated
fiscal impact.
Staff recommended approval of the second reading of this ordinance
5.3. Code of Ordinances Ordinance 2nd Reading - Street Drainage
Engineering: Ordinance No. 2006-00038 Consider an ordinance
amending Section 24-86, revising curb ramp, roll curb, and various other
design and construction changes on sidewalks, curbs, driveways, and
curb ramps.
ORDINANCE NO.2006-00038
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 24 OF THE CODE OF
ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK, TEXAS, WITH REGARD TO
DESIGN, LAYOUT AND PLANS OF SIDEWALKS, CURBS, DRIVEWAYS, CURB
RAMPS, STREET CURBS AND GUTTERS PROVIDING A MISDEMEANOR
PENALTY; PROVIDING A SAVINGS CLAUSE; AND PROVIDING FOR
PUBLICATION.
The first reading of this ordinance was at the March 23, 2006 City Council
meeting.
Section 24-86 of the Code of Ordinances relates to the design, layout and
plans for the construction, reconstruction, alteration, or replacement of
sidewalks, curbs, driveways, curb ramps, street curbs, and gutters. Chapter 24
of the Code of Ordinances is titled "Street and Sidewalk".
Section 24-86 refers to a number of design detail sheets that detail the specific
design of the above listed improvements. The revision to this section will
change and update these detail sheets.
There were a number of minor revisions to lengths, widths, thickness, etc. to
the design details. The major changes include:
1. Curb ramps: Changing to four -foot wide ramp and landing widths, as well
as requiring concrete pavers with red truncated dome surfaces on the ramp
area.
2. Roll Curb: A detailed design section for roll curb was added to the curb
and gutter plate.
355
Regular City Council Meeting
April 13, 2006
Page 356
FISCAL IMPACT
Under current policy, the builder is responsible for the installation of curb
ramps. The requirement to use truncated domes will increase initial
construction cost to the builder but will reduce the long-term cost of
maintenance and will satisfy the requirements of the Americans with
Disabilities Act.
The developer is currently responsible for the installation of the curb. It is
anticipated that the change in policy will reduce the required amount of
concrete and, as a result, will reduce the cost of construction.
Staff recommended approval of the second reading of this ordinance.
5.4. Zone Case No. 2103-D (2431 S. Loop 289) Ordinance 2nd Reading
- Planning: Ordinance No. 2006-00034 Consider request of Chana
Damron, for Damron Wheels-N-Waves, Inc. dba Damron Motorcycle
Co., to amend Ordinance 7371 (C-4 with a current list of uses) to add: 1)
motorcycle sales rental and service, and 2) trailer sales and service on

SSALES ON TRACT D LESS THE WEST PART OF SPORTSMAN ADDITION,
LUBBOCK, TEXAS; SUBJECT TO CONDITIONS; PROVIDING A PENALTY;
PROVIDING A SAVINGS CLAUSE; AND PROVIDING FOR PUBLICATION.
The applicant is requesting an amendment to the conditions placed on a C-4
zoned parcel. The original case in 1976 had a list of 12 permitted C-4 uses
that included automotive and boat sales but did not include either motorcycle
sales or trailer sales. The family has a successful motorcycle business at 49th
Street and Avenue Q and is running out of space. They feel this location will
give them the space and exposure they need to continue to expand their
business.
The use of land in all directions is commercial.
The request meets the guidelines of the Comprehensive Land Use Plan and
Zoning Policy. Much of the land in the immediate vicinity is zoned open C-4.
The amendment to allow the two additional uses should not create an issue.
The Planning Commission recommended the request with the following
conditions:
1. The existing list of permitted uses within Ordinance 7371 will be
increased by adding:
a. Motor cycle shops, including sales, rentals and service
b. Trailer and truck rental utility
2. If trailers are sold or rented, one demonstration unit of each brand may be
displayed in the front of the store and the balance of the inventory will be
parked on the side or in the back of the building.
The staff supports the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning
Commission.

Chapter 2 of the Code of Ordinances assigns the duties of reviewing requests
for in -kind services for special community events. Tracking and monitoring of
these types of requests is done through the Special Events policy.

resolution authorizing approval of the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board's
recommendation regarding the FY 2005-06 use of in -kind services by City
departments for special event support. This resolution allocated a total of

offer discussed the deeding to Murphy Addition L.L.C., through a quitclaim
deed, a 645 square foot portion of 19th Street just east of Memphis Avenue
that the City recently obtained from the Texas Department of Transportation.
This additional land will allow the property owner to regain enough area to

Richmond Second Addition, properties located at 224 Avenue M.

AN ORDINANCE ABANDONING AND CLOSING A PORTION OF
AVENUE M LOCATED ADJACENT TO LOT "A", R.C. TAYLOR ADDITION, AN
ADDITION TO THE CITY OF LUBBOCK, LUBBOCK COUNTY, TEXAS, AND
ALL OF THE 20-FOOT NORTH -SOUTH ALLEY LOCATED IN BLOCK 1,
RICHMOND SECOND ADDITION TO THE CITY OF LUBBOCK, LUBBOCK
COUNTY, TEXAS, WHICH IS MORE PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED IN THE
BODY OF THIS ORDINANCE; DIRECTING THE CITY ENGINEER TO MARK THE
OFFICIAL MAPS OF THE CITY TO REFLECT SAID ABANDONMENT AND
CLOSING; PROVIDING A SAVINGS CLAUSE; AND PROVIDING FOR
PUBLICATION.
This ordinance abandons and closes a 3,224 square foot portion of Avenue M
just north of 3rd Street adjacent to Lot A, R.C. Taylor Addition and the 20-
foot north -south alley in Block 1, Richmond Second Addition. Robert Taylor
of R. C. Taylor Distributing is the requestor of this street closure for replatting
purposes. Mr. Taylor recently acquired the acreage on the west side of Avenue
M and north of 3rd Street and desires to close this portion of Avenue M to
connect his properties. Access northward from 3rd Street across the
Burlington Northern and Santa Fe tracks was recently closed by the railroad
and the City in exchange for the upgrading of the railroad intersection at
Avenue P leaving a section of Avenue M unusable. Since Mr. Taylor was not
the original dedicator of the street, there will be a charge for these 3,224
square feet. From adjacent property values and a review of existing sales
comparables, a value of $1.00 per square foot is determined. Therefore, the
value of this street closure area to be charged to Mr. Taylor is $3,224. The
area being closed will remain as a utility easement so the value will be
adjusted by 50% for a final closure cost of $1,612.
In 2005, Mr. Taylor acquired all of Block 1, Richmond Second Addition from
the Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railroad. This property is on the west
side of the portion of Avenue M being closed and contains a 3,179.6 square
foot north -south alley. Blocks 1 — 11 of Richmond Second Addition were
platted in 1909 by S.A. Richmond, who in 1911 sold all of Block 1, including
the alley, to the railroad who has owned it until they recently sold it to Mr.
Taylor. This 2005 sale included the alley area. In 1911, there was not a City
resolution or ordinance in place that addressed street or alley closures.
Nevertheless, a title exam indicated that an alley dedication exists on the
property (the alley has never been opened on the ground or used by any utility
company) and this ordinance will close it. The Right -of -Way Department has
valued this 3,179.6 square foot alley at $0.25 per square foot for a cost to Mr.
Taylor of $794.90. The total closure costs to Mr. Taylor for the street area and
the alley area being closed is $2,406.90.
FISCAL IMPACT
Income to the City of $2,407.

The Automated Mapping and Facilities Management (AM/FM), Work Order
Management (WMS), and Automated Vehicle Tracking and Locating (AVL)
systems will provide participating departments with enhanced customer
service and a reduction of labor costs by eliminating most manual processes.
This system provides the technology to facilitate outage management, make
efficient work assignments, manage and automate warehouse inventory,
mapping and routing functions. The software will interconnect with the
Customer Information System (Banner), financial system (JDE), and the
Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition system (SCADA) and will allow
for real time engineering analysis of the entire electrical, water, wastewater
and solid waste systems including short circuit analysis, load flow analysis,
and forecasting analysis. This system provides a means to identify and
monitor safety hazardous and risks. This system will also assist Water
Utilities in meeting recommendations of a recent state mandated audit.
Lubbock Power & Light, City of Lubbock Water and Sewer Department, and
City of Lubbock Solid Waste Department were assisted by Information
Technology and the Purchasing Department in conducting a competitive
sealed proposal process for the acquisition of the utility software system.
Following evaluation of the proposals, the evaluation committee selected GE
Energy of Denver, Colorado as the recommended vendor. The proposed
contract is provided. The new software system will permit the participating
departments to improve their respective operations in terms of both scope and
efficiency.
The initial cost of the system is $1,760,721. The cost of the software is
$324,585 and the implementation cost is $1,436,136. An initial change order
in the amount of $40,000 has been included in the implementation to write an
interface with the City's centerline file in field force automation in lieu of
Mapquest used in GE Energy's current software. The annual costs for
maintenance and upgrades are $69,279 to be divided equally among the four
departments. Additional costs of approximately $485,000 will be needed for
additional hardware servers ($250,000), Travel and Lodging (not to exceed
$135,000), and a contingency for possible change orders ($100,000). GPS
units and Mobile Data Terminals ($544,500) will be purchased in the future in

A copy of the Purchase Order is filed with Resolution No. 2006-RO180.
A site plan of the Mackenzie Park Amphitheater and surrounding area is
provided. The site plan indicates restroom facilities to be located just south of
the seating bowl. Staff also considered a location at the entrance to the
amphitheater just off Broadway. The location at the entrance was eliminated
due to concerns including archeology (see attached area on site plan), expense
to connect to utilities, and very limited access for buses. That location also
could prove to be inconvenient for Amphitheater patrons due to the distance
and elevation change from the bottom of the seating bowl. The site south of
the seating bowl is easily accessible from the seating area, bus turnaround is
nearby, sewer and water lines are nearby, and the site is clear of archeological
concerns.
After evaluating several options, staff is recommending the purchase of two
precast concrete restrooms from CXT Precast Products. CXT produces the
buildings at their plant in Hillsboro, Texas. The restrooms can be purchased
through the Texas Multiple Award Schedules (TXMAS) State of Texas
Contract. The total cost for the restrooms, including delivery and placement, is
$172,691. The two restrooms will face each other with a common area
between the two. On large events both buildings will be utilized, while one
building will be utilized for the smaller events. The availability to isolate the
buildings will result in reduced maintenance efforts. The cost per square foot
is $166. The estimated cost for a site built facility is $249 per square foot. A
Regular City Council Meeting
April 13, 2006
Page 384
site built building of the same size as the pre -cast is estimated to cost
$259,000. Estimated project completion is 90 days from purchase.
The occupant load for the Amphitheater is estimated to be 1,235 people in the
terraced seating. Based on the Plumbing Code for theaters, the fixture count
for the men's restroom would be three urinals, two toilets and four lavatories.
The fixture count for the women's restroom would be 10 toilets and four
lavatories. The proposed restroom facilities will provide two urinals, one toilet
and two lavatories in the men's restroom. The women's restroom will consist
of nine toilets and six lavatories. Staff was very concerned with the "potty -
parity" requirements, which will be exceeded with this facility. If additional
facilities are needed for very large events, portable toilets can be utilized.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funding of $250,000 was appropriated for restrooms at the Mackenzie Park
Amphitheater. The estimated project costs are as follows: buildings $172,691,
utilities (water, electrical, sewer lift station) $45,000 and site development
(grading, elevations, compaction) $25,000 for a total cost of $242,691.

A copy of the Amendment is filed with Resolution No. 2006-R0181.
On July 14, 2005, the City Council approved an agreement with MWM
Architects, Inc. for design services for the new 160-acre youth sports
complex. The agreement with MWM includes schematic design, design
development, construction documents, bidding, and construction inspection.
Since approval of the agreement, the scope of the project has changed to
include additional property.
This contract amendment revises the scope of the design services for the
Youth Sports Complex. The project will be divided into three phases. Phase
One includes the design of 12 softball fields in three four -field clusters, each
with a common concession and a public restroom building, and a fourth
cluster with three Little League fields and one Junior League field. The field
clusters will have amenities similar to those on the Cavazos Complex in
McAlister Park. The site development will include parking lot design for
approximately 2,500 vehicles.
Phase Two includes designs for approximately 18 senior soccer fields, nine
junior soccer fields, 13 intermediate soccer fields, and 16 pee wee soccer
fields along with one freestanding public restroom/office building, one free
standing public restroom/maintenance building, one free standing public
restroom/large meeting room, and parking. Eight of the senior soccer fields
will be illuminated for evening games.
Phase Three includes the design of a freestanding championship softball field
with seating capacity yet to be determined.
The fee for Phase One services is a lump sum of $650,000 plus reimbursable
expenses and any owner authorized additional services. Fees for Phase Two
and Phase Three shall be negotiated at a later date when the City of Lubbock
authorizes staff to proceed with those projects. All other terms of the original
agreement will remain in force.
Parks and Recreation staff is negotiating the engineering services for Phase
One of the project. It is anticipated the engineering services will include
topographic survey, final plat submittal, site plan review, site grading, parking
lot paving design, site utilities plan, storm water pollution prevention plans,
water distribution plan, paving plans, drainage analysis report and irrigation
plans.

On October 13, 2005 the City of Lubbock entered into a lease agreement with
the South Plains Professional Hockey Club, Ltd. for use of the Lubbock
Municipal Coliseum to conduct professional ice hockey games, practices,
recreational ice programs, camps and other related ice events. The term of the
agreement was for a period beginning September 1, 2005 and ending April 30,
2006. The agreement also provided the hockey club with an option to renew
and extend the term of the agreement under the established terms and
conditions of the lease agreement in effect at the time of the exercise of such
option. The due date for written notice to exercise this option was identified as
April 1, 2006.
The hockey club is currently in discussion with City of Lubbock staff
regarding the terms of the lease agreement and will not be able to meet the
deadlines identified in the agreement. Therefore, the hockey club has
requested an extension of 45 days as it relates to the term of the agreement
and to amend the due date for the written notice of renewal. This request will
establish the end of the term and the due date for the written notice of renewal
to be May 15, 2006.

McCanton Woods, Ltd., for a zoning change from R-1 Specific Use to R-1
Specific Use for Town homes, Garden Homes and detached single family
homes (amending conditions of Zone Case 3048) on Blocks 28, 29, 35, 38,

AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ZONING ORDINANCE NO. 7084 AND
THE OFFICIAL MAP OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK MAKING THE FOLLOWING
CHANGES: REPEALING ORDINANCE NO. 2005-00105; AND ZONE CASE NO.
3048-A; A ZONING CHANGE FROM R-1 SPECIFIC USE TO R-1 SPECIFIC
USE FOR TOWNHOUSES, GARDEN HOMES, AND DETACHED SINGLE-
FAMILY HOMES ON ALL OF BLOCKS 28, 29, 35, 38, 39, 61 AND 62; LOTS 13-

ADDITION, AND BLOCKS 1,2,3, AND 4, OVERTON PARK ADDITION,
LUBBOCK, TEXAS; SUBJECT TO CONDITIONS; PROVIDING A PENALTY,
PROVIDING A SAVINGS CLAUSE AND PROVIDING FOR PUBLICATION.
Several months ago, the applicant presented a somewhat complex zone case
inclusive of a booklet that describes the architectural styles and details that
will be required of new single family in the initial phase of the residential
component in the Overton redevelopment area. Since that case was approved,
reviews by several design firms, City staff, and several builders have
discovered a number of minor issues that need to be amended. The case
represents a clarification or clean-up of the initial case.
Adjacent land uses:
N — commercial
S — residential
E — residential
W — high density residential
The request is consistent with the Comprehensive Land Use Plan as amended,
and accommodates technical amendments that are an accumulation of City
staff and contractors employed by the applicant to create the guidelines. The
redevelopment project is not envisioned to make Overton North a replica of
the original subdivision, but to provide for styles and amenities typical of
architecture of the area when it was in its prime, and a sense of "place".
A side -by -side of the current ordinance compared with the proposed changes
and an amended copy of the design booklet that will be adopted by the
ordinance is provided.
The proposals are consistent with zoning policy for the area.
The Planning Commission recommended acceptance of the proposed Code
and Design Guidelines.
